My name is Shen Lijuan, I am 26 years old this year, and the company's front desk.
Two years ago, after I graduated from an ordinary university, under the instigation of my roommate Liu Jie, we came to the first-tier cities to work hard.
The idea at that time was very simple, just to go to first-tier cities while you were young. In addition, my boyfriend, who had been in love for three years, broke up with me after graduation, so I hated the city where I studied. Although I found a good job at that time, I still refused decisively.
Others love a city because of one person, but I do the opposite.
I have to say that there are indeed many opportunities in big cities. Not long after Liu Jie and I came, we found a job. And I am the front desk and she is the salesperson.
Originally, I shared a rent with Liu Jie, but after her boyfriend moved in, my life was completely disrupted, and I, a single dog, was heart-wrenching.
So I decided to move out and live in it myself, but after looking for many houses, I finally found that the room fee was too expensive and I couldn't afford it.
I found some houses that I could share, but there was no suitable one.
Finally, under the introduction of my colleague, I rented a house in the city. After several searches, I found a house with good lighting and quietness. After finding a suitable house, I moved out immediately.
Although work is far away, you can live alone with peace of mind and do whatever you want, and don’t worry too much.
I discussed with the landlord that the room fee will be paid once a month, including the water and electricity bill, it will cost about 2,000 yuan per month, and I can still bear it.
My landlord is a married middle-aged man, and his family seems to be studying with their children in another place. I call him Brother Sun. I just moved to a new house, and Brother Sun took good care of me, which made me feel like I met a good person.
One day, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening. I arrived at around 12 o'clock in the house and found that the door was locked.
I stood at the door and shivered with coldness. I was helpless and could only call Brother Sun’s WeChat.
After waiting for a long time, Brother Sun answered WeChat.
"Brother Sun, I am Xiao Shen. The door is locked. I can't get in. Please, can you open the door?"
"I'm already asleep. I've woken up by you. I'll get down after a while."
I squatted at the gate, waiting for Brother Sun to open the door. A few minutes later, the door was opened.
Brother Sun said, "If I come back late in the future, I will tell me in advance and I will not close the door. This is the key to the door, you can bring it with you."
I held the key and I am very grateful to Brother Sun.
"Thank you, Brother Sun, if I work overtime in the future, I will tell you in advance."
Brother Sun suddenly asked, "Xiao Shen, do you have a boyfriend?"
Hearing this, I planned to say no, but I must be careful and can't tell the truth.
"I have a boyfriend, and he will be here in a few days."
Brother Sun's face flashed with a hint of disappointment and said, "I thought you were single. A girl as beautiful as you, you should pay attention to safety when you go out. Tell me if you have something to do, and I will help you."
I nodded and agreed.
A peaceful life is always affected by the epidemic. A sudden epidemic has caused the entire city to press the 7-day pause button.
and I was blocked into a rental house. I had never cooked food in the house, so I could only buy some instant noodles and quick-frozen food.
At first I thought 7 days was enough, but I thought it was extended for another 10 days. What is most unacceptable is that due to the impact of the epidemic, the company only pays the basic salary, while my basic salary is only 2,000 yuan.
What made me even more desperate was that my mother was sick and hospitalized for 50,000 yuan, and I sent all my savings to my parents.
is really . It’s just that it rains all night.
On the evening, I was eating instant noodles. Someone knocked on the door of my house. I asked vigilantly, "Who?"
"Xiao Shen, it's me."
I listened to the voice, it was the landlord Brother Sun, so I opened the door.
"How do you eat instant noodles? Such a nutritious food."
I was a little embarrassed and said, "During the epidemic, there is no takeout, I can only eat instant noodles."
Brother Sun shook his head helplessly and said, "When will I give it to me for two months' rent? I have to use money recently."
I just remembered that I owe two months of rent, which costs about 5,000 yuan, but I am penniless now and I am penniless.
"Brother Sun, wait a few more days! The epidemic has passed and I am going to work. I will immediately transfer the rent for you. "
" Then I will wait for you for a few more days, as soon as possible, you cannot owe the rent. "
Brother Sun said again: "How easy is it to find a rich person? Will you still lack money? "
I was a little angry and felt very uncomfortable.
"Brother Sun, I can support myself, why do I rely on others? "
" You are still too young, so I'll give you another week. "
After the landlord, Brother Sun left, I immediately called my best friend Liu Jie to borrow money, but she refused. I borrowed money from a friend, but I was rejected.
I forced me to have no choice, otherwise I wouldn't have borrowed money from a friend, because I know that borrowing money is hurting feelings.
I can only hope to return to normal and go to work as soon as possible. After the last few days, I finally heard the news of the news.
Just when I was happily preparing to go to work, I walked to the gate, but found that the gate I was blocked, only in and out.
After inquiring, I realized that because there was a close contact in the yard where I rented, I had been blocked for 7 days. My heart was completely broken.
I asked for leave from the company leader, but the leader refused and told me that I would hire another employee after three days if I didn’t go to work.
I had no choice but to return to the house, and my heart was cold. An epidemic, I lost too many things.
Just when I was in a daze, the landlord Brother Sun came to my room again.
"Xiao Shen, when will the rent be given to me? "
" Brother Sun, this is not a ban. I will transfer the rent to you when I go to work next week. "
Hearing this, Brother Sun sat on the stool and said, "Actually, you don't have to pay the rent, as long as you agree to me with a condition. "
I was a little puzzled and asked, "Brother Sun, what are the conditions? "
" Xiao Shen, if you are my girlfriend, I don't want the room fee, and you can still collect rent for me. "
When I heard Brother Sun's words, I was completely stunned. There were such an annoying and shameless person, and I was just taking advantage of others' danger.
"Brother Sun, don't worry, I will transfer the room fee to you these days. As for my girlfriend, I won't agree. "
" Xiao Shen, it is not easy to make money during the epidemic, so you can think about it again. "
I never thought that the landlord who had a good influence in my eyes actually made me a scumbag because of the rent.
When I was in a state of anxiety, my family called and transferred the money reimbursed by my mother after she was discharged from the hospital. I immediately transferred it to the landlord.
What I look down on the most is that women sell their dignity because of money.
Finally, under the persuasion of my family, I left the first-tier city that I had struggled for several years and returned to my hometown.
