Chapter: 61
"Because we need to move, need more rooms, and need our own bathroom." Klein said with his mouth upturned, spreading his hands.
He felt that his smile was impeccable, and he was only short of asking "Are you surprised?"
Melissa was startled, and suddenly spoke quickly, a little flustered: "Klein, we actually live pretty well, and I occasionally complain that I don't have my own bathroom. It's just a habit. Do you remember Jenny? The one who lived next door to us used to, since her father was injured, lost his job, and had to move down the street, the family of five could only live in one room, with three sleeping on high and low beds and two sleeping on the floor, they still thought Sublet the remaining space on the ground floor to others..."
"Compared with her family, we are very lucky. Don't waste your salary on this matter. Besides, I like Mrs. Sling's bakery very much."
Sister, your reaction is different from what I expected from the script... Klein was dumbfounded.
The afterglow outside the window was golden and dark. Klein looked into Melissa's eyes and couldn't find anything to say because none of the lines he had prepared could be used.
He coughed twice, and said in a hurry: "Melissa, this is not a waste of salary. In the future, Benson and my colleagues will be guests. Is this the place to entertain them? In the future, Benson and I will get married and have a wife. Now, do you need a bunk bed?"
"Don't you guys have no fianc�es yet? You can wait a little longer and save more money." Melissa said logically.
"No, Melissa, this is the rule of society." Klein felt quite a headache, and could only make sense, "Since you get a weekly salary of 3 pounds, you must have the dignity to match the 3 pounds weekly salary."
To be honest, he was no stranger to the current living conditions and fully adapted to the current living conditions, but it was because of this experience that he understood more and more the inconvenience of a similar environment for girls, and his goal was to To become an Extraordinary, to study the occult, to find the "way" back home, in the future, it is necessary to perform some magical rituals at home, and the apartment is crowded with people, which is prone to problems.
Seeing that Melissa wanted to say more, Klein quickly added: "Don't worry, I didn't consider a single-family house, I planned to look at a townhouse. In short, you must have your own bathroom. Also, I like Mrs. Sling's house too. For bread, tingen pies, and lemon cakes, we may first consider the places near Iron Cross and Daffodil Street."
Melissa pursed her lips slightly, was silent for a while, and nodded slowly.
"Besides, I'm not in a hurry to move. I have to wait for Benson to come back." Klein smiled and said, "Otherwise, after he opens the door, he will be shocked and surprised and say, where are the things in my house? My younger siblings What? Where is my home? Is this my home? Did I go to the wrong place? Goddess, tell me if this is a dream, why go out for a few days and come back without a home!"
He imitated Benson's tone, and Melissa bent her eyes unconsciously, revealing the dimples on her cheeks.
"No, Mr. Franch will wait at the door and ask Benson to hand over the apartment key. Benson can't go upstairs at all." The girl said to the stingy and money-greedy landlord.
In Moretti's house, everyone likes to use the landlord Mr. Franky as the protagonist of jokes when they have nothing to do. This atmosphere was brought up by the elder brother Benson.
"Yes, he won't change the locks for the tenants behind." Klein agreed with a smile, pointed to the door, and said humorously, "Ms. Melissa, shall we go to the Silver Crown Restaurant to celebrate together?"
Melissa sighed slightly and said, "Klein, do you know Selena? My classmate, my good friend."
Selena? A girl with long wine-red hair and dark brown eyes suddenly appeared in Klein's mind. Her parents were both believers of the Goddess of the Night, and they blessed her in the name of Saint Selina. She was not yet sixteen. , half a year younger than her sister Melissa, is a happy, cheerful and outgoing girl.
"Yes." Klein nodded to express that he remembered Selena Wood.
"Her brother Chris is a solicitor and currently earns close to 3 pounds a week. His fianc�e works part-time as a typist." Melissa first described the situation before saying, "They have been engaged for more than four years. Afterwards, I had a stable and good life. I am still saving money until today, and I have not yet entered the church. I plan to wait at least another year. According to Selina, people who are similar to her brother are like this, usually 28 years old You can get married in the future, you have to prepare in advance, save money well, don't waste it."
It�s just going to a restaurant for a meal. Is there a need for so much reasoning� Klein didn�t know whether to cry or laugh. He thought for a few seconds and said, �Melissa, I have a weekly salary of 3 pounds now. It will increase every year, so you don�t have to worry about it.�
"But we need to save money to prevent accidents. For example, the security company suddenly closed down. One of my classmates had to drop out of school because his father's company went bankrupt and he had to go to the dock to find a temporary job. .� Melissa persuaded her brother with a serious expression.
�Klein covered his face with his hand: "That, that security company has something to do with the government, um, it has something to do with the government, so it won't go bankrupt casually."
"But the government is also unstable. After every election, if there is a change of party, most of the positions will be changed, and it will become a mess." Melissa retorted persistently.
...Sister, you really know a lot... Klein shook his head angrily and amusedly: "Okay..."
"Then I will make a soup with the leftover ingredients from yesterday, you go to the street to buy a piece of pan-fried meat fish, a piece of beef with black pepper sauce, a small pot of cream, and bring me a glass of ginger beer, in short, it is still a little celebration one time."
These are the foods often peddled by hawkers on Iron Cross Street. A piece of pan-fried meat and fish costs 6 to 8 pence, a piece of beef with black pepper sauce is not too big, 5 pence, a glass of ginger beer costs 1 pence, and a small pot of cream costs about 4 cents. A pound costs 4p - buying a pound of cream directly costs 1 soli and 3p.
The original owner would be responsible for the purchase of ingredients for the family every holiday, and he was no stranger to prices. After a few seconds of mental calculation, Klein figured out that it would roughly cost 1 soli and 6 pence, so he directly took out the two 1 soli banknotes.
"Yes." Melissa no longer objected to this, put down the stationery bag, and took the banknotes. JrNovels.com
