Chapter 161 Will Good People Be Rewarded?
There were several small stools in the room, all of which were made by Yang Jianjun himself. He asked Jiang Duoduo to sit on the small stools.
Aunt Yang and Mengmeng also sat next to Jiang Duoduo.
Yang Jianjun took out two bottles of Wanglaoji from the cabinet, one for Jiang Duoduo and the other for his granddaughter Mengmeng.
The old couple themselves were reluctant to drink it.
"Uncle Yang, how much is the monthly rent for your house?"
Jiang Duoduo picked up the Wanglaoji in her hand, opened it, took a sip and asked.
"It's 800 yuan a month!"
Yang Jianjun also picked up a small stool and sat by the door and said.
Because the room was too small, it seemed a bit crowded with so many people sitting together, so Yang Jianjun could only sit at the door.
"Including the water and electricity bills, it's 900 yuan. Money is so hard to come by these days, but it's so easy to spend."
Aunt Yang interjected and said that she felt very distressed when talking about the monthly rent.
But what can she do? It was her own son who caused it. Who can she go to for justice?
"Aunt Yang, I'd like to ask, where are Mengmeng's parents? Don't they take care of their child?"
Jiang Duoduo had heard Mengmeng say in the alley before that her parents didn't want her anymore, so she asked this question.
"Ah...it's a long story..."
Aunt Yang asked her granddaughter Mengmeng to do her homework at the table on the side first. She sighed and told Jiang Duoduo about the changes that had happened in their family in the past few years.
Originally, their family had a house in J City, but their son Yang Munian owed a lot of money because he gambled with others.
The loan sharks came to their house every day and splashed red paint on them to demand repayment, and threatened that if they didn't pay back the money, they would chop off their son Yang Munian's hands and feet.
There was no other way, the old couple could only sell their house to help their son pay off his gambling debts.
After the house was sold, the daughter-in-law also filed for divorce.
After the divorce, their son Yang Munian kept quiet for a while. He seemed to have turned over a new leaf and even found a class to attend.
At that time, the old couple Yang Jianjun still felt that as long as their son was willing to reform, he would have a long way to go in life, his life would get better, and he would be able to buy back the house.
But the good times didn't last long. After only a few months of work, Yang Munian started gambling again and owed more than 100,000 yuan.
His family can no longer afford to help him pay off his gambling debts!
In order to avoid being visited by debt collectors, Yang Munian left his parents and children and went to hide in another place.
As a result, the old couple completely gave up on their disappointing son.
In order to prevent the debt collectors from scaring their children, the old couple moved from the southern suburbs to the northern suburbs.
The three generations of grandfather, grandson and grandson lived in this rental house for two years.
After hearing about Uncle Yang's family, Jiang Duoduo felt heavy in her heart.
Just because of gambling, a good family was ruined.
Poor Mengmeng is still so young, but she has to live a hard life with her grandparents!
So, Jiang Duoduo felt that since she had encountered this situation, she should help if she could.
Let’s not talk about anything else for now, let’s just talk about my mission of getting a free meal this time.
Without Uncle Yang's piece of meat pie, Jiang Duoduo would not have received the 20 yuan reward from the system.
So, Jiang Duoduo planned to let Uncle Yang and his family move into the B&B dormitory.
This not only saves them rent, but also allows the whole family to live together and take care of each other.
Otherwise, after the B&B opens, Uncle Yang will have to work the night shift, and he probably won’t be at ease leaving Aunt Yang and Mengmeng in the rental house.
Jiang Duoduo looked at the two of them and slowly said, "Uncle Yang, our B&B has staff quarters. I'll call a moving truck for you. You and Aunt Yang can pack up the things you need to take tonight, and you can all stay at the B&B tomorrow!"
"Xiao Jiang, this won't work! How can we bring our families to live in the staff dormitory? I know you have good intentions and want to help us reduce the burden. But you've already given me a job that's enough to support my family, and we're already very satisfied!"
Yang Jianjun stood up from his small stool and quickly waved his hand to refuse Jiang Duoduo.
"That's right! Xiao Jiang, we can't trouble you like this."
Aunt Yang stood up and said.
They are all grateful people and don't want to trouble Jiang Duoduo anymore.
"Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang, please listen to me first."
"Our B&B is newly opened, and we're hiring for other positions. Although Aunt Yang has difficulty walking, she can still work as a dishwasher in the B&B restaurant."
"Since you both work at the B&B, shouldn't you live in the staff dormitory?"
Jiang Duoduo asked the two to sit down quickly and then told them her thoughts.
The restaurant in the B&B needed two dishwashers, and Jiang Duoduo had originally planned to hire a local aunt. She thought Aunt Yang could do the job.
"Xiao Jiang, you...you mean...find a job for me too?"
"I...can I really?"
Yang Jianjun's wife hasn't been to work for several years since she became disabled in her legs and feet. Now, when she suddenly heard Jiang Duoduo say that she could also go to work, she became so excited that she spoke incoherently.
Jiang Duoduo placed her hand on the rough back of Aunt Yang's hand and said to her with a smile, "Absolutely!"
"That's great! Xiao Jiang, you are a benefactor to our family. We are so lucky to have met you!"
As Yang Jianjun spoke, his eyes began to moisten.
Ever since their son Yang Munian got into debt from gambling, their relatives have kept their distance from them, fearing that he would ask for money.
However, Yang Jianjun could also understand them. Gambling is like drug addiction. Once you are addicted, it is difficult to quit. They have such a son, and they really have no hope in their lives!
But Yang Jianjun was really touched that Jiang Duoduo, a stranger, was so willing to help his family so enthusiastically when they met by chance.
"Uncle Yang, please don't say that. When I was really hungry the other day, you even gave me a meat pie! You are all kind-hearted people, and good people will be rewarded!"
"A meat pie is worthless. Your help to our family is a great act of kindness. But, Xiao Jiang, you are right! Good people will be rewarded!"
Yang Jianjun looked at Jiang Duoduo with a firm gaze.
"Uncle Yang, Aunt Yang, the move is settled. I found a moving van for you online and booked it to come tomorrow morning at nine. I'll be heading back now. See you at the B&B tomorrow!"
Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Duoduo stood up and said goodbye to the uncle's family and left.
"Xiao Jiang is such a good person..."
"Yeah... I actually thought she was trying to trick us that day. What a lousy look I had!"
"Your eyesight is really not that good! Hahaha..."
After seeing Jiang Duoduo off, the old couple Yang Jianjun stood at the door and spoke with emotion.
"Lao Yang, be happy today! I'll make braised pork for you and Mengmeng tonight! I'll also stew the half chicken in the kitchen refrigerator today!"
"Really? You're willing to eat half the chicken! That's our meat for a week!"
"Of course I'm willing to. Didn't you just hear Xiao Jiang say he found a job for me? Now we both have jobs. We can eat PUBG every day from now on! Hahaha..."
