Chapter 438 The Warm-hearted Liang Family
The old lady pointed to Lu Sixing and Yuan Shanchuan and said, "They're talking about finding a house."
Shu Yu said, "The house will definitely only be rented in a place close to where Fourth Uncle goes to work. Fourth Uncle, do you know which warehouse you are in charge of?"
"I know, it's in the south of the city."
The old lady said with some regret, "The south of the city is too far from here. If we lived closer, we could look after each other."
Yuan Shanchuan said, "It's alright, staying nearby is fine. I'll just leave earlier in the future. I'm unfamiliar with this county town, and I'm worried about leaving Sixing and the two children at home. With my mother-in-law and brother-in-law here, I have nothing to worry about."
The old lady waved her hand, "That won't do, you can't keep up with this kind of rush every day."
Their family didn't have the money to buy a mule cart yet.
The old lady frowned, then suddenly clasped her hands together. "That's right, the peach orchard where the third son works is also in the south of the city, and the house he rents is nearby. You can rent a small courtyard there. The rent for a courtyard there isn't expensive, and you can take care of each other."
Shu Yu looked at her strangely, "Grandma, are you sure... you can take care of each other?"
The old lady's happy expression suddenly froze, and she said in a low voice, "Forget it, with the behavior of the third son and his wife, if they lived together, they would probably come to your house to freeload every day, and you would be the only one taking care of their family."
Even so, when it came to actually looking for a house, the old lady still subconsciously led Lu Sixing towards that alley.
This was Shu Yu's first time here. Last time, when her third uncle was looking for a house, she happened to be at the black market and hadn't been back since.
There were three of them: the old lady, Shu Yu, and Lu Sixing.
Da Niu had been busy these past few days, and since he had borrowed the village chief's oxcart, he couldn't linger for too long. So after dropping the people off and resting for a while, he returned to Shangshi Village without going with them to look for a house.
Yuan Shanchuan originally wanted to come, but firstly, his injuries had not fully healed, and secondly, Shu Yu was more skilled at driving mule carts in the county town, so they simply left him at home to take care of the children, while the three of them went to the south of the city.
Lu Sanzhu is currently renting a place on Yuning Road. The environment here is not as good as Liufang Lane, but it is more lively.
As soon as the old lady arrived, she started banging on Lu Sanzhu's door. Soon, Liang's complaining voice came from inside, "Coming, coming, trying to call back your soul! You knocked the door so hard you almost broke it, you..."
As soon as the door opened and Liang saw the three people outside, her voice stopped abruptly.
After a long while, she blinked and asked, "Mother, sister-in-law, A-Yu? What brings you all here?"
She quickly let the two of them in. Only Bao Ya was playing in the yard, and she was all dirty.
The old lady couldn't stand it anymore, "Don't you know how to wash her?"
"It's already so dirty after less than fifteen minutes of washing, might as well not wash it at all." Mrs. Liang said quite confidently, "Isn't this how all children are raised?"
The old lady chuckled. In the past, when Bao Ya was sent to her maternal grandparents' house, she was always spotless. Liang Shi is just lazy, yet she puts it so nicely.
The old lady rubbed her forehead and took Bao Ya to wash up.
Lu Sixing then explained her purpose to Madam Liang.
Mrs. Liang was overjoyed. "Great! It's good that you're looking for a place here. Don't worry, I'm familiar with the area around Yu Ning Road. I know which houses are looking for tenants and the rent is cheap."
She was incredibly enthusiastic, and Shu Yu immediately saw through her plan.
