Chapter 115 Who thinks there is too much money
Chapter 120 Who Thinks Too Much Money?
"Originally, I planned to go back after having lunch in the shop. Judging from just now, shopkeeper Zhang may not have the skills to cook, hehe!" Liang Yuzhong said in addition to the shop.

"Father, we don't have lunch when we go back, why don't we just find a small restaurant nearby!" Jin Xi proposed, and Liang Yuzhong naturally nodded in agreement.

The father and daughter passed by the bun shop and saw the daughter-in-law of the bun shop standing at the door with the baby in her arms, her eyes were red, as if she had just had a quarrel.At this moment, the young shopkeeper of the steamed stuffed bun shop came out, saw Liang Yuzhong and Jin Xi, his eyes lit up, he chased them out and called them to stop, he desperately wanted to invite them in for a meeting.

The daughter-in-law smiled at Jin Xi, and carried the child to the alley to bask in the sun.Jin Xi felt that the young shopkeeper asked them to come in because he was afraid that there was something related to it, so the two of them went in, and settled for lunch at his place.

The young shopkeeper gave Jin Xi and Liang Yuzhong a bowl of noodles each, and added a few chopsticks of sesame oil, then sat on the side and started talking about him in a hurry.

It turned out that the young shopkeeper of the steamed stuffed bun shop invited the father and daughter to come in. It really was something, and it was about renting out the steamed stuffed bun shop.

After some questioning and answering, Jin Xi probably figured it out. The business of their steamed stuffed bun shop is not booming, but they still make a small profit by serving the residents of Qingqiao Alley with breakfast. At least they can manage the food and clothing of a family of three.

"I didn't think about renting out at first. No, it's not as good as people's calculations. My father in the country suddenly suffered from an eye disease. If he doesn't rush to treat it, he might go blind. The doctor said he needed an injection, and he still needed it After a few courses of treatment, I have to prescribe the medicine and the needles to be useful. Where can I get so much money? I have to think of renting out this shop!" said the young shopkeeper.

"For rent? So, the title deed of this shop is in your hands, so this house is also your property?" Jin Xi asked.

"Yes, this shop is a family business I set up with my own hands. It has a similar layout to your Sun Ji, with an attic on the top and a small courtyard with three rooms in the back!" The young shopkeeper was a little proud when he mentioned this. Dao, glanced at the door, but didn't see his wife there, then sighed, and said: "My wife was arguing with me about this just now, and half of the parents agreed to let their daughter marry me because they saw me." With this little family business in the town and the shop still running, my daughter won’t suffer if she follows me. But my father has only one son under his knees, so how can I care if he is blind or not?” He said in embarrassment.

"I never thought about selling it? Wouldn't it be possible to get more money?" Jin Xi asked again.

"Hey, I don't sell the property, I just rent it out, and I can get some money to pay for those treatments. When my father's eye disease is almost cured, I want to copy the old business again!"

Jin Xi nodded, that's true, I finally bought some real estate, but I can't let it go easily.However, Jin Xi's heart brightened, the location of this steamed stuffed bun shop is much better than that of Sun Ji's inside, and she has been coveting it for a long time, it would be great if she could rent it!Who would hate money?
"Earlier, I also asked shopkeeper Zhang about it. He said that you are the owner of Sun Ji, and it is up to you to make up your mind. Brother Liang, I invite you to come, just to ask if you have any intention of renting it. Why don't you come to my shop? Your Sun Ji's business is booming now. There is a family in between our two shops, which is very convenient! If you are interested in that, I think your rent is lower than others, how about it? ?”

Liang Yuzhong has been burying his head in eating the noodles, and occasionally said yes to say that he heard it. Now when he heard the question, he looked up at Jin Xi, smiled at the young shopkeeper, and said proudly: "Ask me, my girl. , my daughter makes up my mind about our family business!"

The young shopkeeper was amazed. Although he had seen and heard neighbors praising Jin Xi's ability earlier, he didn't expect that she was the real leader. It's not easy!

He looked with admiration at the little girl in front of him who was concentrating on drinking the noodle soup. The little girl had delicate features, double buns on her head, and the clothes she wore were not at all luxurious or fancy.She always has a faint friendly smile when she sees people, her eyes are clear and bright, and there is an aura that cannot be ignored all over her body. She is a smart girl with ideas.

He got up and scooped up a bowl of hot noodle soup for Jinxi and Liang Yuzhong each, sprinkled with sesame oil and sprinkled with peanuts, this soup is the latest dish made by their shop, many people said it was delicious!

"Little sister Jin Xi, what do you think?" He asked, "If you rent it, I'll give you the amount of a month!" He gestured with his fingers, and Jin Xi narrowed his eyes slightly. Within Xi's acceptance range, she was still a little off the mark.

Jin Xi was not polite, took it and thanked her, took a sip of her drink, pursed her lips, and said, "Brother, we are all acquaintances, and I won't turn around with you. I still have something interesting about your shop. I I know you are renting out to get medical treatment urgently, but my family also needs money for urgent matters right now, so I can’t follow the rules of this industry to pay you the rent all at once for the whole year, I can only pay you for a quarter for the time being Yes, let's sign the lease for at least two years, if you think this is acceptable, then lease it to us, if you can't wait, that's fine."

Settle the rent once a quarter?The young shopkeeper is caught in a balance...

Then, the young shopkeeper's daughter-in-law led Jinxi around the attic and the small courtyard behind, and Jinxi looked around.

After a cup of tea...

In addition to Jin Xi and his son, the young shopkeeper, his wife and children, shopkeeper Zhang, and the head of the family between Sun Ji and Baozi shop were also invited.

Under the witness of so many people, Jin Xi and the young shopkeeper drew up a temporary lease contract, which clearly stated the relevant matters of the lease, in black and white, every item was clear at a glance, and the lease period was two years, starting from the eighth day of the first lunar month Accounting days.

In the end, under the witness of the big guy, Jin Xi personally handed over a quarter's rent to the other party. Jin Xi and the young shopkeeper wrote down their names on the contract respectively, and pressed their scarlet finger prints on their names. So far, The lease contract is officially in effect!

"Brother Liang, Miss Jinxi, don't worry, we will spend the New Year in this shop. Before the eighth day of the first lunar month, we will definitely vacate this place, clean it up and leave it to you!" The young shopkeeper said gratefully.

Liang Yuzhong smiled and waved his hands: "It's not a problem, we are old acquaintances, how can we not believe you!" Jin Xi pursed her lips and smiled, she didn't say anything, her heart was already full of joy, and she couldn't wait to think about how to use this shop What business to do!
The young shopkeeper rubbed his hands, seeing his wife kept winking at him, so he consulted Liang Yuzhong and Jin Xi: "Well, Brother Liang, I have another merciless request."

"What are you talking about?" Liang Yuzhong asked.

"Well, my daughter-in-law is going back to her mother's house today. I don't have the time to deliver it. It's both stuff and children's. It's hard to toss. You drove the ox cart and went to the west. By the way, why don't you give it to us? Is it okay to take a ride along the way?"

"Sister-in-law's natal family is west of the town?" Jin Xi asked.

"Yes, in the alley of Hongqiao in the west." He said, "That alley is easy to recognize. There is a big maple tree at the entrance of the alley that can't be hugged by several people. In autumn, when the tree is full of red, it is called red. Bridge alley."

"Oh, well, let's go together if you happen to be on the way!" Jin Xi said, Liang Yuzhong naturally has no objection, anyway, he is willing to help if he picks up someone along the way.

The daughter-in-law hugged the child and got into the bullock cart. Jin Xi also climbed up and sat with her, helping to look after the child. The young shopkeeper moved the things to the bullock cart. This woman really brought a lot of things back to her mother's house. But mostly kids clothes and diapers and stuff...

They refused to accept the money for the noodles, but Jinxi gave him the money, and every yard was worth one yard.

Before leaving, the young shopkeeper quickly wrapped a big mantou bun wrapped in kraft paper, and insisted on giving it to Jin Xi to take home to eat.

The bullock cart slowly drove out of the Qingqiao Alley, then onto the street outside, heading all the way to the Red Bridge Alley in the west of the town.The sun is gradually moving towards the west, and it is warm on the body. The wind is not very strong today, which is suitable for drying and washing.

The little girl was in the arms of the daughter-in-law, squinting her small eyes and nibbling on her fingers, her small eyes darted around like black grapes.Jin Xi had always liked such a little baby, she was so cute and pink, especially now that Mrs. Sun was pregnant, within half a year, their family of four would add another little member Thinking of being a sister to such a young baby, Jin Xi is even more excited and delighted, looking forward to it!

Teasing along the way, the bullock cart bumped unhurriedly, and when it was near the Red Bridge Alley, Xiaoya fell asleep comfortably in her mother's arms.

"Brother Liang, just leave us here, and I'll go in and find my natal father to move things!" The young daughter-in-law said shyly.

"Sister-in-law, you can just sit down, we've reached the intersection, and it's not too short of a few steps, so don't worry if we just deliver it to your door!" Jin Xi said, and the daughter-in-law could only smile and give up.

Compared with the alleys in other places in the town, this place is relatively remote, and the houses here are relatively simple and old.The ox cart stopped in front of the gate of a family in the alley. The daughter-in-law knocked on the door with the child in her arms. An old man with a hunchback came and opened the door. The daughter-in-law called him Dad.

As soon as the daughter-in-law was introduced, the old man warmly greeted Liang Yuzhong and Jin Xi to come in and sit down. Liang Yuzhong was so strong that he carried the daughter-in-law's bags into the courtyard with both hands.

An extremely ordinary small courtyard, without any sign of prosperity.It is separated from the neighbor's yard on the left and right by a mud wall mixed with gravel. According to Jinxi's visual inspection, the wall should not exceed 1.5 meters at most.

Not long after, the gray-haired old woman came out of the house, and when she saw her daughter and granddaughter coming back, she also came up to welcome her. The family wanted to invite Liang Yuzhong and Jinxi into the house for tea. Liang Yuzhong and Jinxi were thinking about going back to Jinjishan Village , the two sides began to decline in the yard.

Suddenly, in the yard on the other side of the road, there was a sad cry of a woman, accompanied by a man cursing angrily.
