Chapter 970: Profit Sharing

Zhou Qiao didn't want to buy a house in the county town. Firstly, she didn't have the money, and secondly, they wouldn't be living there.

Now that the house has been bought, if they don't live there, my mother-in-law will definitely be eager to move in.

It's hard to say whether the house will even belong to them if they want to come back in the future.

Don't look back and see how hard they worked to pay off their debts, only to find they couldn't even live in their houses for a single day.

So she also disagreed with buying a house. She was more surprised by her third uncle's decision. "Da Niu, do you think third uncle and aunt have saved a lot of money?"

Da Niu thought for a moment and shook his head. "It shouldn't be much. He borrowed most of it from A Yu. I think it's probably because Uncle San's job is stable, and Da Bao is studying nearby. Uncle San and Aunt San can't go back to farming, so they decided to buy it."

Unlike him, who doesn't even know if he'll live in the county town in the future.

Zhou Qiao nodded, "That's true, Uncle San's situation is different from ours."

The couple was discussing buying a house for their third child. At the same time, in Liufang Lane, the old lady was also asking Shuyu, "Do you know where the third child is planning to buy a house?"

Shu Yu had just returned. After seeing Lu Sanzhu off, she went to the mansion and told Liang Wangsheng about Li Xiaoshan.

Little did Liang Wangsheng know that this person had been missing for two months, and when he heard the news again, he had actually been murdered.

He felt at the time that he deserved it, that evil deeds would be punished.

Just then, Yingxi returned, which meant that Hu Li and his constables had also brought the prisoner and the two victims back to the county government office. Shu Yu asked Yingxi to take Liang Wangsheng to the government office to identify him.

Lu Erbai wasn't at the mansion; he seemed to have gone out on business. Shu Yu then drove the mule cart back by herself.

As soon as we got back, the old lady asked about the house.

Shu Yu didn't linger in the south of the city. After seeing the person off, she didn't delay either, and naturally didn't inquire about where her third uncle's house was located.

but……

"I reckon it's still in that area. It's close to the peach blossom grove and not far from Da Bao's private school. We've lived there for so long, we're familiar with the area for miles around."

The old lady thought about it and agreed. Then she asked Da Niu, "You said your third uncle bought a house, do you think Da Niu might want to buy one too?"

"I asked Brother Da Niu and even promised to lend him some money, but Brother Da Niu refused."

As Shu Yu spoke, she noticed the old lady frowning, looking quite distressed. She guessed it was because the old lady knew house prices in Jiangyuan County were going to rise and felt she would lose millions if she didn't buy now.

She found it amusing and sat down next to the old lady, putting her arm around her shoulder. "Grandma, if Brother Da Niu doesn't want to buy it, he doesn't have to. We'll have him go to the prefectural city to buy it when we have the money."

The old lady couldn't help but glare at her, "The prefectural city, my foot! Aren't houses in the prefectural city even more expensive? With the little silver Da Niu has, how could he possibly afford one?"

"That's not necessarily true. Big Brother Niu will be working for me from now on, so I definitely can't treat her badly, right?"

What Shu Yu didn't say was that she and Da Niu discovered the sunflower seeds together, and Da Niu did all the initial cultivation work by himself. In this respect, Da Niu put in more effort than she did.

The two could be said to have one providing the capital and the other the expertise, so Shu Yu planned to give him a share of the harvest after the sunflowers were harvested. She couldn't just give him a small stipend like she did before, where he helped out at the shop, and that would be it.

Big Brother Niu is honest and always runs around doing his best without asking for anything in return, so she can't bully him, can she?

The old lady held Shu Yu's hand and said, "You can't let yourself be taken advantage of."
