Chapter 138 Renting a Shop



After telling this to Mrs. Tang, Jiang Cheng felt relieved and decided to help He Xiaomi find a shop.

For ten days in a row, after Jiang Cheng finished selling tofu and ice bean pudding, he went out to check on the shop, leaving Song Tingzhi at home to look after Doudou.

Jiang Cheng also went to ask Fang Xi for advice. Fang Xi felt that their own alley was better because there were many residents and even renting a shop was not expensive.

Jiang Cheng thought it was a good idea. If He Xiaomi lived nearby, they could meet and chat from time to time.

Jiang Cheng then wandered around the nearby alleys for a few rounds, and by chance he saw a shop for rent.

Jiang Cheng went up to inquire about it, and was told that it would be twenty taels of silver for half a year. Jiang Cheng calculated that it would be just over three taels a month, which was quite a good deal.

Although the shop was not very big, it was enough for He Xiaomi's family to live in. Jiang Cheng told the boss to keep the shop for now and he would bring someone to look after it in a few days.

After taking a fancy to Jiang Cheng, he went to other places for a while and took a fancy to two more shops. The prices were similar, but the locations and sizes were different. He then waited for He Xiaomi to come and see the shops.

After confirming it, Jiang Cheng asked Song Tingzhi to take the message back and asked He Xiaomi to make time to come over in the next few days.

Song Tingzhi was also quick. Within two days he brought He Xiaomi here.

"Chengcheng!" He Xiaomi felt very uncomfortable sitting on the donkey cart, looking here and there. She finally made it here, but got off as soon as she saw Jiang Cheng hadn't stopped yet.

"Be careful!" Jiang Cheng was shocked by He Xiaomi's behavior.

"It's okay!" He Xiaomi waved her hand, "Chengcheng, you're so quick! It's only been a few days and you've found a shop for me!" He Xiaomi said affectionately, holding Jiang Cheng's hand.

"Of course I will take your affairs to heart. Come on, let's go inside and talk!" Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi's hand and led him into the house to take a look.

It was the first time that He Xiaomi came to Jiang Cheng's place properly. She went in and looked around and liked it more and more.

"Chengcheng, you've done a really good job on your shop!" He Xiaomi gave Jiang Cheng a thumbs-up. "I can't wait to see what the shop you found for me looks like!"

"Don't worry! I'll take you to see it tomorrow morning!" Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi to his room. Doudou was sleeping in the cradle!

Jiang Cheng had just poured a glass of water for He Xiaomi when Doudou woke up. Jiang Cheng picked Doudou up and knew from his expression that he was hungry.

Jiang Cheng asked Song Tingzhi to quickly bring the heated goat milk into the house. Song Tingzhi was quite quick. He knew that Doudou was almost ready for feeding, so he brought the milk in after a while.

Jiang Cheng fed Doudou milk, then burped him out before sitting down to talk to He Xiaomi.

"Then you wait!" Doudou didn't sleep after finishing his feeding. Instead, he lay in Jiang Cheng's arms, blinking his big eyes and staring at He Xiaomi.

"Oh, look how well Doudou has grown!" He Xiaomi came closer to take a closer look, "Let me hug him!"

He Xiaomi opened his arms for a hug. Doudou stared at him for a while and then extended his hand symbolically. He Xiaomi took Doudou from Jiang Cheng and hugged him.

"Look, Doudou is so cuddly to me!" He Xiaomi smiled at Jiang Cheng while holding Doudou.

"Look at what you can do!" Jiang Cheng looked at He Xiaomi's loving expression, "If you like babies so much, go give birth to one yourself!"

"Come on, how can I give birth? I don't even have a boyfriend!" He Xiaomi ignored Jiang Cheng's teasing and walked around the room holding Doudou.

"Then hurry up and find it! You're nineteen too!" Jiang Cheng urged.

"Why are you the same as my mother? I wouldn't have come if I had known. If you continue like this, I'll leave!" He Xiaomi complained.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more! Give me the child, you sit down and have a good rest!" Jiang Cheng invited He Xiaomi to sit down.

He Xiaomi sat down and chatted with Jiang Cheng for a while. When it was almost dark, Song Tingzhi came in and called them to eat. Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi to eat. After dinner, Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi to live in Song Yu's house.

Jiang Cheng asked He Xiaomi to stay in the town and not go anywhere else. He Xiaomi didn't argue with him. After Jiang Cheng settled He Xiaomi down, he let him have a good rest and would take him to see the shop early the next morning.

After Jiang Cheng returned home, he had a good sleep. The next morning after breakfast, he took He Xiaomi straight to the shop he had liked.

Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi to see one first. He Xiaomi thought it was good and wanted to decide on it, so Jiang Cheng quickly pulled him aside.

"You're stupid! There are still two shops here! Don't worry!"

"I'll listen to you."

Jiang Cheng said a few words to He Xiaomi, and then Jiang Cheng took He Xiaomi to two other shops, and then told He Xiaomi the prices.

After comparing for a while, He Xiaomi still felt that the one that cost twenty taels of silver for half a year was more cost-effective. It was not far from Jiang Cheng's place and the price was also suitable.

This is the one Jiang Cheng liked. Seeing that He Xiaomi also liked it, he directly took He Xiaomi to decide on it, otherwise it would be gone if it was too late.

He Xiaomi paid the money and signed the documents, and the matter was settled.

After settling on the shop, He Xiaomi planned to start renovating it and bring her parents over to live with her.

He Xiaomi stayed at Jiang Cheng's house for another day and then went back. He had to tell his parents about this good news. Jiang Cheng knew that he was happy, so he asked Song Tingzhi to send him back and bring some food from the town.

Qi Yu didn't know how he knew that He Xiaomi had rented a shop in town, and he specially brought chickens, ducks and wine to Jiang Cheng to inquire about the news.

"Brother!" Qi Yu's voice came in before he even arrived.
