Chapter 289 Little Tomorrow and Her Soldier Brother (3)
The proprietress said this, but she was somewhat amazed in her heart. Gu Lian usually didn't talk much, but she didn't expect that he was so caring sometimes.
"Yes! I came back early and I still have two days off." Gu Yanxi said this to the boss's wife, but he glanced at Xu Youwei out of the corner of his eye, as if he was talking to her.
The proprietress was an experienced person. Seeing this situation, she knew everything. She guessed that Gu Lian had been tempted by some worldly desires.
But the girl should be very young, so he didn't point it out.
After thinking about it, the proprietress felt that she needed to "help" the two people.
He just told Xu Youwei about the conversation he had just had, and added at the end: "Gu Lian, I remember the house you were allocated last time was quite big, and it also had a yard. Do you still often go out on missions now?"
Gu Yanxi knew that the other party had good intentions, but some things really couldn't be taken too casually. Regardless of whether it would affect him or not, for Xu Youwei, she might feel uncomfortable living in a strange man's home.
So he said, "It's OK!"
He still didn't want to let others know about the mission. After all, sometimes there were some confidential missions.
When the proprietress heard what Gu Yanxi said, she immediately realized that she seemed to have said too much just now. There were some things she shouldn't have asked. She laughed and said, "I just said it casually. It's up to you whether you answer or not."
Xu Youwei looked at the two of them in surprise. She didn't expect that military matters really couldn't be asked casually!
"How about this! The kind of house the landlady mentioned is in our compound." Gu Yanxi suggested, "My comrade's parents rented it out, but they only rent it to people they know well, after all, it is in the family compound.
Don't worry, I'll be your guarantor, they may rent it to you, and you only need to pay the rent once a month."
Xu Youwei felt a little better after hearing this: "Is it too much trouble for you? You have already helped me a lot."
At this point, Xu Youwei lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly. She suddenly felt a little useless as she had come to S City early without even finding out any accurate information.
Now I still need others to help me!
"It's okay. This time we are mutually beneficial." Gu Yanxi explained, "Someone I know wants to rent out a house, and you just happen to want to rent a house. This is a perfect match. I just want to say something."
"Thank you!" Xu Youwei bowed to Gu Yanxi with some gratitude, and then said, "Brother Gu, you are such a good person."
When he heard the word "good man", Gu Yanxi's face stiffened for a moment, but then returned to normal.
After all, being given the "nice guy card" is not a good sign.
"Let's go! Let's go!" The proprietress reminded him, "Let's go check out the house quickly. It's important to settle down first."
"Yes!" Gu Yanxi picked up Xu Youwei's luggage and said, "I'll show you the house. It's very close to here, only a few hundred meters away."
"Okay!" Xu Youwei followed Gu Yanxi for less than ten minutes and saw a large area of connected residential houses. They were not the kind of buildings in the city, but small buildings with no more than three floors.
"It's right here!" Gu Yanxi explained, "It was originally an empty lot, and later the army built a family compound. It's just that the house was built at an earlier time, and there was no such thing as a building at that time, so this kind of small building was built using local materials."
"It's pretty good!" Xu Youwei looked at the environment and said, "It has an antique feel. Is this style modeled after the surrounding houses?"
"To be precise, it was the residents here who helped us build it." Gu Yanxi said, "After all, they are more familiar with the terrain here, and they also know what kind of house is more suitable for warmth here."
As they were talking, the two of them stopped at the door of a not-so-big house.
However, perhaps because this is a military compound, there is no need to worry about security, so the owner of this house did not close the door at all.
The door of the house was open.
However, Gu Yanxi still knocked on the door politely.
"Here she comes, here she comes!" An old lady with silver-gray hair said as she walked out. "Oh! It's Xiao Gu! She's back from visiting her relatives!"
When the old lady reached the door, she saw Gu Yanxi coming in with his luggage and standing with Xu Youwei.
"Ah! Is this your wife?" The old lady was surprised. "Aren't you going back to visit your relatives and picking someone up here? Is this the person you picked up? Did you meet her through a blind date, or was she assigned by your family?"
As she spoke, the old lady also pulled Xu Youwei aside and said, "The girl looks really young and good-looking. She is a perfect match for you. Are you here to give me wedding candy today?"
After hearing this, Xu Youwei was stunned on the spot, her face gradually covered with red clouds. She pursed her lips and tilted her head to look at Gu Yanxi, looking a little at a loss.
This adorable look made Gu Yanxi feel a little itchy in his heart. If they were not both carrying luggage, he would probably not be able to resist touching the little girl's head.
So this action may be a little bit beyond the line, but sometimes, you may really not be able to tolerate it at all.
Thanks to these two pieces of luggage, otherwise Gu Yanxi felt that he would have made a mistake.
