The place Shen Jianlin and Lin Xiujuan rented was a very old building, only four floors high, and there were actually dozens of households living there. Each household was only about 20 square meters. It was so small that the clothes had to be dried in the corridor outside and on the wires that were intertwined in a mess.
This place is dark and damp, the ground is wet, and the walls are moldy. As soon as you walk in, there is a musty smell, and the old couple frowned.
They didn't expect their son and daughter-in-law to live in such a place, what a pain!
Shen Jianlin hugged Fubao, opened the door with one hand, and said with some embarrassment, "Mom and Dad, this room is too small for so many people. I will take you to a guest house later."
After entering the door, it was a dim room. If the lights were not turned on, it would be as dark during the day as at night.
Shen Jianlin turned on the light to illuminate a small area inside.
Fu Bao couldn't help feeling that this house is really small, not as big as the yard at home.
Although the room is small, it is clean and tidy, without much clutter. Needless to say, it is due to Lin Xiujuan, she is the one who loves cleanliness the most. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the couple to bring the old couple and their children over.
Old Mrs. Shen saw that her son and daughter-in-law lived in such a place. It was dark and cramped, and the sound insulation was poor. She could hear the voices of the people next door. She would definitely not be able to rest well at night, and her eyes turned red.
Although my house is not very good, but it is bigger than this house, there are three rooms, a big stove, and a yard, it is too small for two people to live here.
Shen Jianlin rubbed the back of his head, "Mom, isn't this... Xiujuan and I thought about the high expenses at home, and Fubao will have to go to school in the future, so we have to save her tuition fees, and save as much as possible. It's okay, it's good for us to live here. Right, daughter-in-law?"
Lin Xiujuan nodded, "Yes, Mom, Jianlin and I can live here. Anyway, we work part-time during the day and come back at night, so we don't need to pay too much attention to it. We just need a bed to sleep in."
"You silly girl, don't say that, mom knows you're wronged!" Mrs. Shen's eyes turned redder, and she patted Shen Jianlin again, "Look at you, what a husband! They didn't marry their daughter to you to make her suffer with you! It's so humid here, you men can stand it, women can't stand it! What if the cold air enters the body? Hero, you let her live here, I... I really want to slap you!"
Shen Jianlin's ears turned red from the training, and he felt guilty, "Mom, I know I was wrong. Tomorrow I will... I will apply to the foreman for the staff dormitory, where the environment is better."
"Then why didn't you apply before and let Xiujuan follow you in this damn place? I think you really owe it!"
"That's right! You boy, if you think about rheumatic joint pain or something, don't pull Xiujuan!" Old man Shen followed suit, he was firmly on his wife's side.
The old couple thought of themselves so much, Lin Xiujuan was moved, and she was really glad that she met such a good in-law.
The reason why the old lady was afraid of her cold air entering her body was because her stomach hurt badly every time she had menstruation before. The old lady always made ginger soup or traditional Chinese medicine for her, and gradually her pain became less severe, and now she is afraid that she will suffer again.
