Mr. Du didn't say much more. After exchanging a few more words, he had Shen Yi help him walk home.
Mr. Du said, "Xiao Yi, I hear our neighbor, Old Li, is moving to his daughter's place in the provincial capital. What do you think about renting his house to Xiao Jiao's family?"
The corners of Shen Yi's lips curved up. He loved his grandfather's suggestion, but said, "They probably can't afford such expensive rent."
The house next door was also a two-story building. Although it was a bit smaller than Mr. Du's house, the rent was definitely more than Qin Zhonghui's family could afford.
Once the pair got home, Mr. Du sat on the sofa, took a sip of warm water, and finally said, "They definitely can't afford the rent, but what if I gave them an additional subsidy? You're usually at school, and I'm home alone. I'm getting old and don't feel like cooking for myself anymore. I could have the couple help look after me, and I'll give them a monthly allowance for food."
