Chapter 68 The whole yard is rented out
The money for the last meal was paid for by the staff because the gold bars she gave her couldn't be exchanged. I have never had the opportunity to come to the county seat to treat Meng Qi to a meal. This time I finally had a meal and paid for it.

Decided to ask Meng Qi to go out and have a good meal when he had time.

Yang and the others went to prepare the afternoon meal, and Gu Yu took out a ledger to do today's accounts. I counted a total of three hundred cash earned this morning, after deducting my own food and expenses.

Earned one hundred and eighty cents.

After informing Gu Wu and the others of the calculated results, Yang couldn't believe that he had made so much money in one morning and said, "Yu'er, you can forget the cost."

"Forget it, after deducting the meals for the five of us, we made a total of 180 cash today."

This figure is nothing to people doing business in the city, but to farmers who don’t have much income in a year, it is more than what they can earn by doing odd jobs for a day.

Of course, the manpower on the first day was not included. After all, it was only thirty bowls of rice, so it was sold cheaply.

Part-time workers outside earn fifty to sixty cents a day. Counting the wages of the five of them, they will definitely lose money today.

Yang did not take away the money and said, "You are about to become a mother now. You need to keep some money with you as a backup. You can keep the income from the shop yourself."

"I'm not going anywhere, so why do I have money in my hands!" She has accumulated seven or eight taels of silver in her hands over the years. In addition, there is money in the secret realm. She can spend whatever she wants when she goes out. There is no money in the shop. Gu Wu Yang didn't feel at ease, so he had better keep it for them!
Yang glared at her and said, "Whatever you have no use for now will be useful in the future. Just put it away."

Gu Yu: "..."

No matter before or now, she has money!

But she knew this herself, and her parents didn't know what she was doing. Looking at Yang's extremely serious face, she had to put the money away, "Then I'll put it away first. When you and dad need it, go and get it from my room." .”

The family bought a shop and a house, and Yang and Gu Wu still had a few hundred taels of silver on hand. The couple didn't do anything and had no money to use, so they just said "I know" and went to work.

Someone saw the rental notice and came to the shop and asked, "Auntie, let me ask if your family has a house for rent."

Regarding renting a house, Gu Yu could only take Gu Wu with him, and of course An Ji would also go with him.

On the way here, I asked them what kind of house they wanted to rent. When they came to Sanjin Courtyard, they took them directly to the backyard to see a single room, and then rented another one.

Before he could take a breath after coming back, another person came to rent a house. Gu Yu saw that the person who came was Yang Dazhu with a woman, and said, "Brother, how did you think about it?"

Yang Dazhu glanced at the woman and said, "We rent a small yard."

Gu Yu shook his head and said: "I originally only had two small courtyards. I rented one out before, and not long after you left, the other one was rented out. If you want to rent a courtyard, you can check out the two larger ones. "

Yang Dazhu: "..."

Yesterday I saw only one tenant in such a big house. I thought the house could not be rented out, but unexpectedly it was gone.

The woman glared at Yang Dazhu fiercely and said, "Please take our couple to have a look, please."

Gu Yu glanced at the woman and saw that she had a strong and upright appearance. He led people to the courtyard he was looking at before and said: "The eldest brother was looking at this courtyard before. It was rented out. There are two other courtyards next door. , I’ll take you to have a look.”

The big yard was so big that the monthly rent would cost five hundred cents. The woman thought about her own situation and decided that she could afford to rent it out.

It's just that I live in a rented house all year round, and I don't have a place to stay. In the end, I am falling behind others.

After seeing the house, it was quiet. They would not be disturbed by outsiders when they lived here. The furniture was all new.

After gritting his teeth and paying the rent for a year, Gu Yu also wrote a contract for them and said: "I will write a document for you. I will not increase your rent within the specified time, as long as you don't bring some random people to my house." If you want to cause damage here, I won't check how you are living every day." "My family has a shop here. If you have anything, you can come to me or my parents."

Ma Xiuying knew a few words and could barely understand the words on the contract. With the guarantee of the contract, she felt relieved.

It’s actually hard to find a good host when renting an apartment. Most hosts will increase their prices as they stay. Some people are really bad-hearted, and their prices rise by one or two taels per month.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have made a one-time payment for the house for a year.

Not long after sending Yang Dazhu and his wife away, the couple came over with a couple and rented another large yard in the second courtyard.

Gu Wu watched the house all day today, and felt relieved to see his daughter handling the house with ease. He also felt sorry for his daughter, who was running up and down with a full belly, dealing with the tenants who came to rent the house.

The next day, after the morning meal, someone came to see the house. They said no one would let Gu Yu go, and asked the Anji brothers to show the house to the tenants themselves.

I was a little nervous at first and didn't dare to introduce the house to the tenants. Later I became more proficient and rented out the main house in the second courtyard within one day.

On the third day, he rented all the remaining single rooms. Gu Yu calculated that he made almost ten taels of silver from selling fast food in the past two days.

I received twenty taels for renting a house, and my income in just these few days was as much as my family's annual income in previous years.

Yang was very happy when he told Gu Wu and his wife this number, and even Gu Pan and his wife were very excited.

At present, the vegetables and meat are almost sold. Yang said: "The vegetables are almost sold. Tomorrow morning, Yu'er's father, you go back and bring me the pickled sauerkraut. I will make it in the next few days." Pickled fish.”

Gu Pan watched his brother earn more money day by day in the past two days, feeling happy and expectant in his heart, and said: "Let your brother-in-law and the second brother go back together tomorrow morning, and bring more vegetables along the way."

Gu Yu followed and said, "I'll go too."

She was almost four months pregnant and did not show her pregnancy. Yang and the others, who had lived with Gu Yu for more than ten years, still noticed that she had gained a lot of weight.

He said uneasily: "What are you going to do? Your father and your uncle are going back to see how the crops are growing. Just stay here for me."

Gu Yu: "..."

Her mother is teasing her!

She grew up in the village and had never seen a pregnant woman who couldn't do something here or there during her pregnancy.

If she remembered correctly, there were several women in the village who worked in the fields and gave birth to their babies in the fields.

It was her eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law who were pregnant with nephews and nieces. No, no, when she gave birth to three nephews and nieces, she was still young and was so forgetful that she couldn't remember.

I only vaguely remember that when Gu Hongzhong was born, her sister-in-law divided her and Gu Hongying, while Gu Hongmei ate candied eggs.

What impressed her most was that the nieces and nephews in the village, even though they were pregnant, still had to go to the mountains to cut firewood, dig the ground, wash clothes, clean the house, and cook for the whole family.

This was not bad, but she had also heard of people who went to work in the fields the day after giving birth and did not even sit for confinement.

When she thought about it, she didn't say that pregnant women couldn't work. After all, she knew that Yang was her mother, and she really cared about her, so she would not let her do such heavy work.

If it is the mother-in-law, then the situation is different.
