As soon as Qiu Yuling entered the door, she could pick up her bowl and eat. Because she had to go back to school for evening self-study soon and time was tight, Li Qingmei did not ask about these changes. Not only did she not ask now, she also did not plan to ask in the future.
Cats have their ways, mice have their ways, and her daughter has her own ways.
After asking around, it must be what she thought. That's good too. She is lively and resourceful, and will have a bright future than her brothers.
"Mom won't be home tonight. You can make do with your own food during the day, or go to a state-owned restaurant. I'll come over to keep you company. Ask your grandma to prepare something. It's the weekend, so I'll pick her up and bring her over."
She went to talk to her eldest brother and sister-in-law that day, and they said it was no problem. Since their mother didn't have to work, she could just cook a meal in the house. From now on, no matter who of them came home an hour or so earlier, it would be enough. It really made the adults worry when the children were alone outside.
"It's okay, Mom. It's Tuesday today, and there's still money to be made. It's too tiring for you to rush around every day. Just stay home and sleep peacefully. You can send my grandma over on the weekend."
Li Qingmei agreed vaguely, but what she was thinking in her heart was that she and the baby's father would take turns to come and keep the baby company for a few days.
Just like that, Qiu Yuling grew healthily into a towering tree in the blessed nest of love! No, her life continued with its ups and downs, bumps and bruises, but also a peaceful life.
Once you have your own house and are away from your parents' circle of influence, the greatest freedom is that you can get whatever you need without having to spend a lot of time explaining it or trying to cover it up.
She went to school during the day, and when she came back she would just boil a pot of hot water. Then, with the help of various steamers, fryers, and stew pots in her space, she had no worries about food and drink every day. Such good days lasted until that weekend.
On Saturdays, classes ended in the afternoon. Neither Mr. or Mrs. Qiu came that day. Qiu Yuling used the evening self-study period to catch up on any gaps in her studies, trying to make up for any shortcomings her family was lacking.
Including the various oils, salt, sauces, vinegars, and noodles in the kitchen, needles and thread at home, door latches and locks, towels, toothbrushes, and rags...
While she was doing all this, she was thinking about replacing the furniture and utensils. As a result, she accidentally moved the old cabinet in the utility room and discovered a different wall. Was it a secret door?
She searched for the mechanism and, with her experience gained from 5G multimedia popularization in later generations, after fumbling for a long time, she pulled out a movable brick, disguised it as a door in the wall, and opened it with a side turn.
Since she was alone now, she gave up the kerosene lamp, took out the mini flashlight, and picked up a headless shovel handle from the side with her other hand.
Walk down the narrow stairs.
The staircase is divided into two folds, slender and winding.
She walked very slowly, and the entire space was silent, with only the sound of her breathing, which she tried hard to control.
Until I went down the stairs, I saw a basement that was neither too big nor too small, and it actually had a suite.
She didn't rush to open the connected door, but looked around the living room first.
There weren't many valuable things inside, just a few broken tables, chairs, and benches, covered with cobwebs. It was at most a hidden storage room.
Qiu Yuling felt that there wasn't much to look forward to behind that door.
However, this place is useless to others, but for her it is a good place to exchange some money to make a living.
She poked the barely fastened door with the handle of a shovel. Sure enough, it wasn't as glittering as she had imagined. It was just an ordinary bedroom with an old-fashioned plank bed and a fairly stable bedside chest. She didn't sit on the chair, but it looked very sturdy.
This place was probably used to escape war during special times.
Qiu Yuling felt that keeping these swaying tables and chairs was very troublesome.
My heart moved as I pleased, and in the blink of an eye, the house was left with nothing.
She wrapped her headscarf around her neck and first cleaned the empty shell. The walls and other parts were still in good condition and had not been damaged.
But it would be a pity to leave it empty, so she took the opportunity to exchange it for a sturdy wooden bed, a chest of drawers, a desk, an armchair, and other things to fill up the bedroom.
Let's leave the hall empty for now and talk about it later.
However, the old chest of drawers and chair that were recycled into the space were old items. After scanning them in the system mall, it turned out that they were made of Huanghuali wood from the Qing Dynasty. It was estimated that the original owner did not know the value of them and just used them as junk. Now they became a bargain for her.
This was the first time she had truly received unexpected income, and she became instantly excited.
This won’t be posted later!
Oh, no, she had already sent it a long time ago. It’s just that the excitement at this moment is the difference between online shopping and in-person shopping.
Before, she traded with virtual currency. Money was just a string of numbers to her, and of course she could use it, but apart from buying some expensive medicines, she could be self-sufficient in normal things.
But now she was suddenly given the real thing and told that it was of great value. She instantly felt that the meat pie in the sky was big and round, which made her dizzy and happy like a mouse that stole rice.
This storage room was connected to the guest room, and she suddenly had a bad idea, oh no, a good idea.
Why not just convert the reserved guest room into her bedroom, clean up the utility room and turn it into her study, and open a door in the connecting wall?
But she also felt that she already had an excellent private space, so it would be nice to make this basement a real basement.
For a moment she was a little undecided, but forget it, there was no need to rush, so she just put it down and let it sleep like this.
The next day, she slept until she woke naturally. She fed Wanjin some meat bones, and the cluckers prepared wheat bran and water. Then, while she ate some buns, she began to boil water and cook.
I don't know who will be coming for lunch. I might as well make some pancakes, boil some mutton soup, and throw in some green radish. It's a place that can be enjoyed by a large or small group of people.
No one was watching her anymore, so she didn't even bother to go out and pretend. She just chopped up some lamb and bones, then put them in a pot with cold water and skimmed off the foam...
Add ginger, star anise and bay leaves, cover the pot with a wooden lid and let it simmer over low heat.
He took this opportunity to wipe it inside and outside, even the stone pillars at the door were not spared.
"Whose house is this? What's the living situation like? They eat meat every day!"
"He's a newcomer, a country boy. He must be growing it at home. The fragrance is a bit overbearing."
The only bad thing about the alley is that it is too close to other people. Although it is also a yard, if there is any movement, others can still easily know about it.
The mutton was already cooked, and Qiu Yuling put the radish in it. Then her proud little donkey clattered into the alley.
Qiu Yuling turned onto the main alley and waved to Mother Qiu and the others. As expected, quite a few people had arrived.
In addition to her father, mother, and grandmother, there are also Li Qingtong and Qiu Dashan.
Li Qingtong and Qiu Dashan both came along to get acquainted with the place so that they could pass things back and forth in the future.
