Regarding the restraint of Luo Xiujuan and her son, Ye Yun spoke in a natural voice and her nonchalant attitude subtly reduced the tension between the two of them.
Where else could their mother and son go?
Originally, Luo Xiujuan honestly wanted to go to the provincial capital to find Xiaohai's father.
But when she thought of Qin Zheng's warning to her, she choked on her words. She lowered her head to cover the guilt in her eyes, and whispered: "I want to take Xiaohai out to see if there is any suitable job for our mother and son..."
Xiaohai has reached school age, and she doesn't want her children to beg for a living with her.
But she is just a woman with no other skills except washing and cooking. She also has a child. It is not easy to find a job that suits her.
Luo Xiujuan knew that this was wishful thinking, so she shook her head, raised her face and gave Ye Yun an indifferent smile, "Sister, you don't have to worry, there is always room for us two in the big world."
"I have a job here, do you want to do it?" Ye Yun said quietly.
Luo Xiujuan was slightly startled, "Huh?"
"As you can see, besides me and my husband, the only ones left in our family are my aunt and my old lady. But we usually settle in the county town, and we have to go back in two days. My aunt usually goes to the town to set up a stall, and the old lady at home is... I rely on the neighbors to take care of me. I want to hire you to stay and help me take care of the old lady. What do you think?"
"Really!"
Luo Xiujuan's face was excited, and her eyes were gleaming with hope.
She was afraid that her ears had heard wrongly, so her hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, and she looked at Ye Yun again and again with disbelief.
Ye Yun nodded lightly.
"Sister! I will definitely take good care of the old lady!" Luo Xiujuan was ecstatic, and before she had time to put down her chopsticks, she pulled Xiao Hai up and hurriedly stood up and bowed to Ye Yun sincerely, "Xiao Hai, thank you benefactor!"
Xiao Hai was still eating, and he was pulled up with a confused look on his head and bowed to Ye Yun.
After bowing, he still had a confused look on his face, with a half-eaten steamed bun stuffed in his mouth, his cheeks bulging, and his eyes staring at Ye Yun with confusion.
"Very good, very good. Now I can leave the old lady at home with peace of mind, and I don't have to bother you Aunt Tian all the time."
Qin Xiang'e also laughed and said.
She was quite happy that someone could help her take care of the old lady at home.
In this way, she would have time to go back to Zhaojiawa more often. Although Zhaojiawa had nothing to worry about for her, it was still her husband's family after all. She had to guard the house and fields, otherwise she would let the unscrupulous fourth child Uncle and uncle snatched it away.
Also, Luo Xiujuan’s mother and son are really pitiful.
If they learn from Lei Feng and do good deeds, they will also be like Lei Feng.
The old lady said nothing, holding her rice bowl and sipping the soup.
The teeth of the elderly are really bad, with few teeth left, and they can no longer bite ordinary food. Even the steamed buns have to be soaked in the soup and soaked until soft before they dare to put them in their mouths.
Qin Zheng was speechless.
His daughter-in-law has her own reasons for doing things, and he is nothing, so she just supports her unconditionally.
"Sit down and eat."
Ye Yun was not used to being bowed down, so she gave Luo Xiujuan a look.
Luo Xiujuan responded in a hurry.
Sitting back at the table, she still couldn't stop sobbing excitedly. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and touched the vegetable stains on her face from wolfing down her son next to her.
She never imagined that one day someone would be willing to accept her and her child.
"But, not here." Ye Yun said again.
Luo Xiujuan didn't even think about it. She raised her head and looked at her seriously, "Sister, just say it, we and I have no family. We will go wherever you say!"
"Where is his wife going if she's not here?" Qin Xiang'e looked puzzled.
Aren't she and the old lady here?
Ye Yun's eyebrows were slightly curved and her lips curled up into a smile, "Qin Zheng and I bought a house in the town before, and I want you to move there."
"What?"
"What?"
"What?"
Qin Xiang'e was shocked.
Luo Xiujuan was stunned.
The chopsticks in the old lady's hand fell off.
Qin Zheng calmly picked up the chopsticks and handed them to the old lady, "Nai, concentrate on eating. Why are you eavesdropping on the adults?"
The old lady took the chopsticks tremblingly.
Bang, he slapped his hand with the chopsticks with his backhand, and glared at him with his cloudy eyes full of reluctance, as if to say: See what your grandson can do.
"hiss……"
Qin Zheng retracted his sore hand and rubbed the sore knuckles.
The little old lady has quite a bad temper.
Qin Zheng went to see his aunt again, and calmly comforted him: "Aunt, don't be surprised. I bought that house when Ye Yun and I got married. My wife wanted you to move in before, but I didn't let you, so I never told you. Now that there are more people in the family, the house is also vacant. You just moved in, which also adds to the popularity of the house."
A house needs people to support it.
An inhabited house will not deteriorate for decades, but if no one lives in it, it will gradually deteriorate in three to five years.
Qin Xiang'e didn't have any objections.
Anyway, she lives wherever she lives.
If you live in a town, it will be more convenient to sell mung bean cakes in the future, but the old lady is used to living in an old house, and she doesn't know if she is willing to change places.
The old lady shook her head.
Don’t go, don’t want to go.
The attitude of rejection was written all over him, and he didn't even want to say a word more.
Qin Zheng knew that the old lady would not move easily, so he coaxed in a gentle voice: "Mistress, the house in the town is better than home, the location is better, and the sun is more comfortable than the old house. Can we move there?"
Snapped.
The old lady raised her head and drank the soup in one gulp, put down the empty bowl heavily, and staggered back to the main room door with a cane.
Sit down and put on crutches.
Squint your eyes, the sun is shining.
Silence is better than sound here.
Hey, she just basks in the sunshine of her ancestral home, and she won't bask in the sunshine elsewhere even if it's gold.
"Gu, what do you think?"
Qin Zheng went to see Qin Xiang'e again.
Ye Yun also looked at Qin Xiang'e.
Seeing Qin Zheng and Ye Yun both looking at her, Qin Xiang'e smiled cautiously, rubbed her hands and said, "I can do it, I don't care. Even if the old lady doesn't want to, I can't carry her over..."
The implication is, listen to the old lady.
The old lady is the darling of the family, and she respects her wishes. If the old lady doesn't want it, they, as children, can't force it.
Also, after living here all her life, how could the old lady be willing to leave?
Ye Yun also understood this and nodded, "Okay, if grandma doesn't want to move, forget it. I'll think of other ways."
It’s not like you have to live in that house.
"How about this." Luo Xiujuan spoke up at the right time, "Sister, aren't you afraid that the house will be damaged if it is left unoccupied for a long time? Why don't you give me the key and I will go over and clean it every day. Do you think that's okay?"
"I think it works." Qin Xiang'e patted her thigh and looked at Luo Xiujuan in approval.
Luo Xiujuan smiled shyly.
Ye Yun thought for two seconds and reminded calmly: "The house is a bit big and difficult to clean."
"Don't worry about this," Luo Xiujuan didn't flinch at all, still with a sincere smile on her face, "Sister, I'm not afraid of getting tired."
If she has a place to live and food to eat, doesn't it have to be exchanged for her labor?
If she just wants to eat without working, and wants to be comfortable without paying the price, then she is really shameless.
"Okay." Seeing her sincere attitude, Ye Yun smiled happily, "It's not that difficult to clean, and unoccupied houses are not that easy to get dirty. It doesn't take much effort to go over there every day and take a look and clean up any dirty areas. Just clean it up every day and keep it clean.”
Luo Xiujuan nodded, "Yeah."
"The old lady likes to bask in the sun. She usually sits at the door of the hall to bask in the sun after breakfast. You can take advantage of the gap between eating breakfast and preparing for lunch to go see the houses in the town. There is also a 28 big bar at home, so you can catch it in time. Come back before lunch." Ye Yun said, "You follow me to the town later, and I will show you the way first."
"good."
Luo Xiujuan readily agreed.
Taking care of the elderly is not a troublesome thing for her. She also took care of her grandparents at home before. Not to mention that Mrs. Qin has less things to do and is much easier to take care of than her two troublesome grandparents.
At the door of the hall, the old lady relaxed her eyebrows after hearing this.
It is easy to see from her stubborn old face that if Ye Yun insists on letting her move to the town... she is still unwilling.
Fortunately, her grandson-in-law would not force her.
The old lady squinted her dull eyes and basked in the warm sun, sighing in comfort.
Alas... what a grandson she has.
Marrying a good wife can be regarded as doing a good job for the family.
…
In the afternoon, Ye Yun and Qin Zheng took Luo Xiujuan to Wangshan Tower.
Then.
Luo Xiujuan, who was full of fighting spirit, her happy smile froze when she looked up and saw the three-story Wangshan Tower.
The three-story Wangshan Building made her and her son look extremely small and had no sense of presence. As a result, she lost her direction just by standing at the gate.
No one told her that the house Ye Yun mentioned was a bit big, not just a bit big in general.
Let her think about where to start?
Rooftop?
main entrance?
Or is it the courtyard in front of me that is several times larger than the courtyard of the old Qin family’s ancestral home?
It doesn't matter, it's all trivial. It's just a yard, a three-story building, or countless rooms. How difficult can it be for a woman who's used to doing housework?
"There is also a backyard behind the building."
Alas, Luo Xiujuan's newly rising ambition was suddenly crushed by these words.
After a long while, she finally spoke with a forced smile, her voice trembling: "Brother, how did you think of buying such a big yard?"
Qin Zheng tilted his head.
Looking at Ye Yun beside him with a smile, he said, "My wife likes it."
Luo Xiujuan's lips trembled, "..."
Not only did he shock her with his abundant financial resources, but he also severely damaged her with his love and affection.
How cruel.
Ye Yun couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, don't be afraid." Ye Yun knew that she was frightened, so she comforted her softly, "Don't worry, I didn't ask you to clean every day. You just need to come over every day and check and clean up whatever is dirty. After a while, Just clean it up overall. But there have been a lot of fallen leaves recently, so you may have to work harder."
Luo Xiujuan nodded solemnly, "Okay, I will definitely clean it up for you."
"Thank you for your hard work."
After that, Ye Yun took Luo Xiujuan through the antique hall to the backyard, went upstairs, and got to know each room.
Because no one has been here for several months, a layer of dust has settled in the small building.
Ye Yun had already anticipated this, brought cleaning equipment in advance, and took Luo Xiujuan and Qin Zheng to clean up together.
After cleaning up today, it will be much easier for Luo Xiujuan to clean up later.
Sweep the yard, sweep the floor, wipe the tables.
Even Xiao Hai wiped the table with a rag, his face tense and serious.
A few people were having sex in full swing, when suddenly a few people in suits and ties hurriedly appeared at the door, peeking in.
"anyone there!"
When the shout came, Ye Yun was teasing Xiao Hai, who was not even as tall as the table.
The little guy has been malnourished for a long time. At the age of five, he is no taller than the table. When he sees his mother cleaning the table, he insists on cleaning the table on a small stool to lighten his mother's burden.
While Ye Yun was laughing, several people in suits and ties walked into the courtyard at the same time.
"who are you?"
Luo Xiujuan was immediately alert.
Qin Zheng, who was sweeping the yard in the backyard, heard the noise and immediately walked into the hall. He saw several middle-aged people, guarding Ye Yun behind him defensively.
"Sorry, we just called you at the door. It must have been too quiet and you didn't hear us. We just broke in without permission. Please forgive me."
The middle-aged man in the lead had a humble attitude and apologized to them kindly.
Ye Yun remained silent.
The other party was dressed in an unusual way, vaguely exuding the aura of a businessman, and for a moment she seemed to have guessed the purpose of the other party's visit.
Qin Zheng stood in front of her, slightly displeased with the intrusion of several people.
"What do you guys have to do?"
The middle-aged man knew he was being rude, so he quickly smiled and said, "Excuse me, are you the owners of this house?"
"right."
"Hello, hello, my name is Ruan Baili, and this is my business card." Ruan Baili took out a business card from his breast pocket and handed it to Qin Zheng with both hands.
He looked around Wangshan Tower with envious eyes, and then looked at Qin Zheng, "I came here to ask you if this house is for sale?"
Wow, so direct.
Ye Yun expected that Wangshan Tower would become a private residence that many businessmen would flock to, but she did not expect that it would come so quickly.
The scenic area has not been divided yet, and the surrounding area has not yet been developed, but people are already targeting them.
"We won't sell it." Qin Zheng raised his hand and pushed the man's business card back. In view of the friendly attitude of the other party, his tone softened slightly: "I'm sorry, this is my and my wife's home, so we can't part ways with you."
"We can easily discuss the price."
"I won't sell it for any money."
Qin Zheng didn't know much, so after finishing his polite refusal, he became straightforward.
Ruan Baili had a look of regret on his face, turned his head, and exchanged glances with his companions behind him.
Another middle-aged man behind him came forward and continued to persuade: "Sir, I'm sorry, it was our presumption to break into the inner house..."
"You are too presumptuous."
Qin Zheng was not polite.
The man looked choked up and smiled coquettishly, "Let's get straight to the point. We'll buy your house for three thousand yuan. What do you think?"
"What?!" Luo Xiujuan exclaimed.
Seeing Ye Yun and Qin Zheng both looking at her, she knew she had lost her composure and couldn't help but cover her mouth.
Three thousand yuan.
She had never seen so much money in her life.
However, Qin Zheng shook his head calmly, "I won't sell it."
Luo Xiujuan was even more shocked.
Why don't you sell it for so much money? How could the eldest brother and sister who took her in be indifferent to so much money and treat her like dirt? What are their backgrounds?
It's not for sale for three thousand yuan.
This puts middle-aged men in a difficult position.
You guys looked at me, I looked at you, and then your eyes returned to Ruan Baili.
Ruan Baili obviously made up his mind to buy Wangshan Tower. He stared at Qin Zheng and said calmly as if he had made up his mind: "Brother, we are all destined to meet each other, and I won't hide it from you.
This place will be divided into scenic spots later, and your building will become an important symbol.
We are interested in its commercial value and want to take it for our own use. If it remains in your hands and is only used as a residential building, its value will be buried, which is a pity.
We are all honest people and do not engage in shady business, so we will naturally not lose money to you in terms of price.
Why don't you come up with a price? How much does it cost to sell it? "
"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it."
No matter how sincere the middle-aged man's attitude was, Qin Zheng still said this.
There is only one sentence.
This is a house that his wife likes. His wife is so indifferent and she finally has something she likes. How stupid does he have to be to be willing to sell it?
Qin Zheng waved his hand and added impatiently: "I won't sell it for any amount of money."
Several middle-aged men, "..."
"Hey, you idiot, can I give you 5,000 yuan at a fixed price? Do you know what 5,000 yuan is? You will never make so much money in your life, so just take it when you want it!" A famous middle-aged man couldn't bear it. Stay, speak rudely.
Qin Zheng threw the knife with cold eyes.
The man's neck couldn't help but feel a chill, and the companions around him also realized that something was wrong, and quickly pulled him and pushed him behind.
Ruan Boli glanced at his companion angrily, then turned around and apologized to Qin Zheng, "Sorry, there is always an ineffective one in a team."
Qin Zheng, "..."
What does it have to do with him?
"Everyone, don't waste your efforts."
Ye Yun spoke up.
In an instant, all eyes were focused on her.
Especially Ruan Boli and the others.
Since entering the hospital, they have only glanced at Ye Yun. In their eyes, she is a good-looking woman. Unfortunately, in this world, men still make the decisions in rural areas, so they only glanced at Ye Yun before targeting Qin. Zheng.
Qin Zheng is their target customer.
I just don’t know what this woman is doing out loud?
Ye Yun raised a gentle smile on her lips and said calmly and calmly, "Everyone, do you think we don't know about the fact that this place is about to be classified as a scenic spot?"
"How do you know?"
Several middle-aged men were shocked.
Only people like them have the opportunity to know such advanced news!
