It was September and it was already early autumn.

The temperature in Kesushui City showed no sign of heat reduction, and the air was still filled with a hot and breath that made people want to vomit.

The entire city is covered with gloomy dark curtains, and heavy rain seems to fall at any time.

Xu Luo, who was riding an electric bike, was parked at the traffic light at the intersection and anxiously answering the phone.

This was called by the landlord, and his tone was very bad.

"Xiao Xu, what do you mean? Do you still want to rent this house? At the beginning, I promised to pay every half a year, but two months have passed since the past six months. If you don't pay the rent for the second half of the year, do you want to live in for nothing?"

"I know, I know, Brother Chen, am I that kind of person? You can wait a few more days and wait until the work is completed, I promise to pay the rent for the second half of the year." Xu Luo said with a smile on his face.

"Grass, wait? It's going to be the New Year. Then, I'll give you another two days. In two days, if you don't pay the rent, don't blame me for being rude and throw all your things out. Okay, that's it!"

Doudu!

Listening to a busy voice coming from his ears, Xu Luo frowned and looked a little ugly.

Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! You know how to urge!

Damn, it’s really a bad year!

Beep! Just as Xu Luo mumbled, a horn sound came from behind, and it turned out that the front had turned into a green light.

Just as he was about to leave quickly, his cell phone suddenly rang again.

After glanced at who called him, he quickly pushed the electric car to the side of the road.

"Little Fish, is there anything wrong?"

"elder brother!"

Xu Yu just called out to me and started crying. This cry made Xu Luoxin raise it up again and asked anxiously: "Xiaoyu, don't cry, tell me, who bullies you?"

"Brother, no one bullies me, it's mom... I've gotten an old problem again, I'm hospitalized and I'm going to have surgery!"

"Ah, I need to have surgery?"

"Yes, the doctor said that it would not work if the surgery is not possible, otherwise the consequences would be very serious!" Xu Yu choked.

"But yesterday I heard from my mother that she was going home and she would not treat this disease!"

"If you don't watch, why don't you watch?" Xu Luo said anxiously.

"Mom said that there is no money at home, so I have to borrow the tuition for college, and I can't afford to pay 10,000 or 20,000 yuan for medical expenses. Brother, I won't go to college anymore, so I'll borrow money to treat my mother first!" Xu Yu cried.

Hearing this, Xu Luo immediately said anxiously: "Xiaoyu, what are you talking about? How can you not get into college after working hard? Didn't you say that I will be responsible for your tuition. As for my mother's illness, I have to see a doctor. I will find a way to do it. Don't think about it, be obedient, and don't cry!"

"But...but brother, that's a total of tens of thousands!"

"Don't worry, I just took on a big job here. As long as I finish it, I will have money to get it. I have all the medical and tuition fees. Please take good care of my mother with peace of mind. You don't have to worry about the money." Xu Luo said gritting his teeth.

"Brother, is it true?" Xu Yu asked sobbing.

"Nonsense, of course it's true. When did you cheat on you?" Xu Luo said firmly.

"By the way, brother, if you come back, don't tell me. My parents don't want me to tell you this!" Xu Yu said.

"Why?" Xu Luo scratched his head.

"Dad said it's not easy for you to be outside, so you can't worry about it anymore." Xu Yu said timidly.

"Hey, what are you talking about! OK, I understand, I will go back in the next two days."

After hanging up the little sister's phone, Xu Luo felt that one head was two big.

He subconsciously touched his pocket and took out only a few dozen dollars. Adding the dozens of dollars in WeChat, he could only make a hundred dollars together. This is his current possessions.

The work on hand is not completed yet, and the rent is still waiting to be paid. My mother has to prepare medical expenses for her illness and pay tuition for her younger sister...

Money, money, money is spent everywhere, money is short everywhere.

Just when Xu Luo was upset, his phone rang restlessly again.

After seeing who called, he took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and politely answered: "Brother Guo..."

He didn't give him a chance to continue speaking, and he scolded him on the other side of his phone.

"Hey, Xu Luo, do you want to do the work here? Come over immediately if you want to do it. If you don't want to do it, I'll find someone else to do it!"

"Do it, of course! Brother Guo, what's wrong with you? You're so angry?" Xu Luo asked in confusion while standing on the side of the road.

"Hmph, what's wrong? You're so embarrassed to ask me what's wrong? What did we say at the beginning? I'll hand over the tiling work to you, and you promise to complete it within a week. Isn't it?"

"Yes, yes!" Xu Luo responded repeatedly.

"That's a big deal. I'm at home now. I've got this one. The tiling master didn't even see the shadow. You come over and take a look at it. It's a mess. Also, the work I painted will start the day after tomorrow. If you can't finish this work in the next day, you can move away the tiles you bought, and you won't even think about taking a penny of your salary!"

Brother Guo roared angrily, even his voice changed a little.

What?

There is no one at the scene? How is it possible? Master Liao should be there! Yang Xuefeng should be there too!

I didn't have time to come here to talk about the work clothes, but I also told Yang Xuefeng to come and stare.

What's wrong?

"Brother Guo, wait a moment, I'll hurry over now, and I'll guarantee it to arrive in ten minutes." Without any time to think about it, Xu Luo said hurriedly.

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Luo quickly called Master Liao, who was responsible for putting on the tiles. Who thought that no one answered the answer there? Then he called Yang Xuefeng again, who thought that there was also Dudu busyness there.

"It makes no sense!"

Xu Luo, who was inexplicably nervous, stopped calling and rushed straight to the construction house.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Luo, who was panting, met the stern owner Guo Tao.

"Brother Guo, I'm sorry, there are many red lights on the road, so I'm late!" As soon as we met, Xu Luo quickly apologized.

Guo Tao raised his hand and pointed around, and said with a gloomy face: "Not only are you late, but you also have late work. Show me what this looks like! I am planning to paint the walls, but you are not even well-stitched on the floor tiles. Is there anyone who works like this?"

"Xu Luo, what did we say at the beginning? I said you must hand over the work to me within a week. As long as you hand over the work on time, the wages will be done as you said. Even I was directly responsible for buying the materials. You also patted your chest to guarantee it. This is your guarantee?"

No wonder Guo Tao is angry!

If anyone saw this situation, he would probably have to send a shot first.

The two-bedroom and two-living houses are filled with random wall tiles, floor tiles, cement and sand, so some are laid in the kitchen, and the rest of the room is not moving.

A red envelope was sent in Sushui Decoration WeChat group, "Immediately asking for a tile master", and it was snatched up in a blink of an eye, but no one replied!

Damn it, it's really like raining all night, is it so moldy? I can't even call a master who puts tiles? Xu Luo's face became darker and darker.
