Chapter 329 Uncle Three Found a House
Unexpectedly, before the old lady could speak, Lu Sanzhu spoke first, saying, "Mother, I have something to tell you."
The old lady snapped, "Spit it out if you have something to say."
"I found a new place to live."
Everyone looked up at once, some with surprise, and stared at Lu Sanzhu.
The latter said righteously, "I think I have a proper job now, and my wife is also earning money. I can't keep living in my second brother's shop. That would make me dependent on him. That's not fair. After all, we are a family of four and we still need to make a living. So I was thinking of renting a courtyard house."
Everyone listened to his righteous words, but they all knew in their hearts that Lu Sanzhu was simply too tired to go to work because of the long distance.
I thought he could hold on for a few more days, but I didn't expect him to give up after only two days?
Lu Sanzhu said, "It just so happens that I met a brother who works with me today, and he told me about a nice house that's not far from the peach blossom grove. I passed by it on my way home from work earlier and took a look. It seemed pretty good. But it's too late, and the landlord isn't here today. I can only rent it tomorrow. I just started working, so it's not good for me to take time off tomorrow. I'm thinking of having my wife go and pay the rent tomorrow."
When her name was called, Liang raised her head. She thought it was quite nice to live in the backyard of her second brother's shop. The place was quiet and comfortable, and she didn't have to spend any money. It was also close to Liufang Lane. She could leave the children with the old lady in the morning and then focus on her work.
Aside from having to get up early every day to make breakfast for Lu Sanzhu and being frequently disliked by the old lady, she had no other bad feelings.
However, she and Lu Sanzhu had this tacit understanding: knowing that his work would take up too much of his time, she had no objection to him finding a new place to live.
Hearing this, she frowned slightly. "I'm going to rent a place? I don't know anyone here. What if I get scammed?"
The old lady glanced at her sideways. Could she really be fooled?
Lu Sanzhu was quite confident in his wife's fighting ability in the village, but this was the county town, and the homeowner was a local. If his wife didn't negotiate well with him, she could easily suffer losses.
He turned to look at Shu Yu. It would be best for Shu Yu to go; if she went, others would only suffer.
Shu Yu was teasing Quan Quan when she sensed his strong call out from the corner of her eye. She looked up and said, "Don't look at me, I have something to do tomorrow."
Tomorrow is the opening day of the black market, and she needs to find out what's going on.
Lu Sanzhu sighed regretfully and looked at the old lady again.
The latter frowned. "Alright, I'll go with the third son's wife."
She eventually softened. Her third son and his wife rarely did anything productive, so as their mother, she wanted to lend a hand if she could.
Sanya, who was standing nearby, went over and asked, "Grandma, what about me?"
The old lady isn't here, Da Hu has to go to school, A Yu has something to do tomorrow, and then there are the remaining children...
"I'll take Quan Quan with me. San Ya and Xiao Zhen, you two go with the second son to check out the shop on Ning Shui Street." The old lady had just finished making a few doll covers, and she thought the two children could stand at the shop entrance to attract customers.
Sanya immediately grabbed Xiaozhen's hand and said, "Okay, I will take good care of Sister Xiaozhen."
That was settled. Lu Sanzhu was in tears. He was finally free from having to walk so far to work. It was just too miserable.
