Chapter 39 Yuqiao
Soon the two reached the end of the street.

This is a dead end alley, and the innermost part is the yard for sale.

Residents on both sides of the alley do not go this way either.

"Outside is along the river. The residents on this side all open their doors to the river, and the residents on the other side open their doors to the street, so almost no one walks in this alley." Yuqiao explained clearly.

"Then can this house open to the river or the street?" Shen Qingyu was more interested in this.

"Of course it can't, otherwise someone would have bought it long ago, and it wouldn't be at this price." Yuqiao giggled.

"Oh..." Shen Qingyu understood, and stepped into the courtyard.

The courtyard is desolate and dilapidated, with four houses, and there are several huge holes in the roof where the skylight can be seen.

Just make up for it.

There is also a well in the yard, which is really convenient if you live here.

Shen Qingyu looked around and asked Yuqiao, "How much is this yard at least?"

Yuqiao looked outside the door, and lowered her voice: "The landlord only needs 100 taels of silver, and any excess will go to my mother."

Shen Qingyu gasped.

Mrs. Chen is really dark!
I actually want to eat the price difference of 50 taels in one bite!
"Then how much money do you think I should pay?" Shen Qingyu looked into Yuqiao's eyes and asked.

"If you bid with the 100 taels of silver, my mother will not spare me. Or...can you add ten taels? You offer 110 taels of silver?" Yuqiao hesitated to give a suggestion.

Shen Qingyu smiled: This girl is a sensible person.

If you know how to protect yourself, you will also explain the reasons clearly so that people will not hold grudges.

At the same time, it also took into account the interests of multiple parties.

"Okay." Shen Qingyu readily agreed.

Yuqiao was immediately happy: "Then congratulate the boss first!"

Shen Qingyu was also happy: she was still climbing up the pole.

She didn't agree to ask her to do something, but she called her boss first.

"Since you called me boss, I have a job for you, do you want to do it?" Shen Qingyu asked with a smile.

"What kind of work? Boss, just tell me."

"This house needs to be patched and repaired. You live in the town, help me find someone to repair it, and I will pay you later. Do you think it will work?"

Yuqiao patted her chest: "What's wrong with that? Just leave it to me."

"Then let's see how much it will cost to repair it?"

Yuqiao looked around: "If you give 20 taels of silver, it can be repaired neatly!"

"That will be..." Shen Qingyu agreed without saying a word.

The next thing is easy to handle, go to the town office to go through the formalities, give the money, and then go home.

Standing at the street corner saying goodbye to Yuqiao, Shen Qingyu looked at the shop and was a little tempted: If he could buy a shop and sell glutinous rice and stewed meat in the future, no one would have to run back and forth to the town.

Yuqiao had good eyesight, and immediately asked, "Boss, do you want to buy a shop?"

Shen Qingyu smiled and nodded: "It's best to be close to my house. It doesn't need to be big, just a small shop will do."

"That's easy, leave it to me, and I'll tell you when I find a suitable one."

After going into the town, bought a yard, and found a high-quality candidate for the future female shopkeeper, Shen Qingyu walked home in a good mood.

Seeing that it was almost time to get home, Shen Qingyu realized that he forgot to buy some snacks for the children.

In a blink of an eye, Shen Qingyu laughed: Is there anything in our space mall?
After buying peanut brittle candies and yam cakes in the space mall, Shen Qingyu found that the price of coarse grains in the space mall has also dropped accordingly, and it has become six renminbi a catty.

Shen Qingyu didn't expect that six cents a catty would be the cheapest price for miscellaneous grains in the next three years...

After returning home, the children were very happy to receive their mother.

Shen Qingyu watched Dabao distribute peanut brittle candies and yam cakes to Erbao and Xiaobao one by one, and reached out to touch the top of Dabao's head.

Dabao narrowed his eyes and smiled contentedly.

When Er Bao saw it, he quickly stretched out his head: "Mom, I want to touch it too!"

Xiao Bao quickly stretched out his head: "Touch! Me! I want it too!"

Shen Qingyu touched them one by one with a smile, and the three little guys all giggled, their little necks still shrinking.

Wen Che looked at this harmonious scene, a little dazed.

Such a woman, such a child, why doesn't my cousin cherish it?
After six years of struggling to survive, they still foolishly reconciled?
The children's laughter was also heard by the limp Cheng Ping in the room.

Leaning on the quilt, he looked at the smiles of Shen Qingyu and the three children through the window lattice, and he was completely dazed.

He had never experienced such happiness.

When Widow Xiao came over in black, it was almost dark, and she stood silently at the gate of the yard, which shocked Shen Qingyu a lot!

"You... who are you?"

Only then did Widow Xiao speak out: "Sister Qingyu, I want to ask you one thing..."

It turned out that Widow Xiao had no rice to cook, and she knew that no one in the village had a surplus, only Shen Qingyu's family was booming recently, so she had the cheek to ask for help.

"I just planted the vegetables today, and there are still several months before they can be pickled into sauerkraut... I can't last for a few months, so I want to ask, can I borrow some grain from you first to last for two or three months? ..."

Widow Xiao stuttered as she spoke, rubbing her skirt with her hands, her head drooping to her chest.

Shen Qingyu thought about it in a daze: This widow Xiao is afraid of getting into trouble, and has always lived behind closed doors. She has never dealt with shrews like herself, and always detours when she sees herself.

This is also beyond comprehension.

Shen Qingyu thought about his follow-up plan, and with a plan in mind, he nodded readily: "Sure, how much do you want to borrow?"

"This... you are so kind... I used to..." Widow Xiao looked up in surprise, even more incoherent.

"How much do you want to borrow?" Shen Qingyu didn't have the patience to chatter with her.

"Just borrow twenty catties of miscellaneous grains..." Widow Xiao lowered her head to her chest again.

"Twenty catties of miscellaneous grains? Three months?" Shen Qingyu was shocked.

There are two children in their family!

Three months of rice and wheat can't be harvested...

"Dig some wild vegetables and cook some porridge with miscellaneous grains, and you'll be able to survive." Widow Xiao sneered, with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Memory fragments emerged in his mind, and Shen Qingyu suddenly felt sad: Didn't my family live this kind of life before?
Multigrain porridge with wild vegetables, no matter how full or hungry.

It really has been a good few days, and now I can be condescending and sympathetic to others.

After laughing at himself, Shen Qingyu neatly gave Widow Xiao twenty catties of miscellaneous grains.

Widow Xiao thanked her and left. Shen Qingyu was about to cook when the three children entered the kitchen.

It turned out that Xiao Yunqi and Shen Dasong hadn't come back yet, and the children began to panic.

"Mom, my father hasn't come back yet..."

"Will he be okay?"

"Will there be bad guys on the road?"

"Will the mountain collapse and they will be buried too..."

The more they talked, the more afraid they became. The triplets started crying, "Wow..." and burst into tears.

Shen Qingyu sighed, a wave of impatience rose, and she really wanted to run away.

I'm coming!

Cried again!
"Mom... woo wa..."

Shen Qingyu's head was bumping and hurting, and soon he couldn't bear it any longer: "Don't cry, your father is definitely fine, I'll go out and pick them up..."

 There are only 44 monthly tickets today, so there will be no more changes.

  Continue tomorrow!

  come on! Come on!
