Yu Qiuying was also quite surprised. She had heard Jiang Shuhe mention before that her youngest son was in college and was getting married soon.
The wedding date is set for the ninth day of next month, which is about half a month away.
Liu Tianhua and her group weren't familiar with the Qin family, and they didn't care much about the Qin family's affairs. All they wanted to do was find a shop and open their restaurant as soon as possible. It had been nine days, and they still hadn't found a suitable shop.
Yu Qinghe was worried for Yu Qiuying. "Second Aunt, why don't you rent that shop across from the vegetable market and open it up first? We can stay here. It's a bit far, but with so many of us, we won't be afraid to come back together at night."
She was referring to a shop she saw a couple of days ago opposite the East District vegetable market. The shop was quite large, but there was no place to live there; it was just a shop and it was a bit far from Houjingtang. It would take half an hour to get there by bicycle.
However, to rent that shop, they first need to rent a place to live there, so these past two days, the group has been looking for a place to live.
There are a lot of rental houses there. There's a cluster of old rental houses behind the vegetable market, but the environment is terrible. They're full of migrant workers from all over the country, all sorts of people, so it's not very safe.
Yu Qiuying looked at Yu Qinghe with a bit of helplessness, "It's too far to come back every day, it's inconvenient. If we want to rent that shop, we still have to find a place to live over there."
“I think that shop in the old town is pretty good, and it also has a place to stay,” Liu Tianhua said.
There's a suitable shop in the old town area, but the foot traffic there isn't as high as at the Xinjie East District vegetable market. However, that shop has two rooms where people can stay.
Yu Qiuying said, "Let's look for a couple more days. Everyone, don't rush. Running a business is a long-term endeavor. We need to choose a good location for the shop, and the place we live in needs to be comfortable and convenient."
As they were chatting, Zhou Jiadong, Zhou Mingde, and Yu Jinbao returned.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhou Jiadong asked, "Mom, why is our restaurant closed?"
Two weeks ago, the three of them went to the restaurant during their vacation. However, when they went back today, they found that the restaurant was closed.
Yu Jinbao also asked, "Second Aunt, what happened?"
"Nothing much, it's just that the landlord wants to take back the shop and won't be renting it out anymore. Have you eaten yet?"
Zhou Jiadong and his two companions didn't have lunch. It was a holiday today, and they didn't get up until after nine o'clock. They went straight to the store, but it was closed, so they returned here.
Zhou Jiadong went to the kitchen and brought back bowls and chopsticks. "Mom, you just said that shop isn't for rent? But when we went over just now, there was a 'For Rent' sign on the door."
Upon hearing this, Liu Tianhua and the others were all dumbfounded.
What... what exactly happened?
Didn't we say we wouldn't rent it out anymore?
Yu Qiuying's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Dong Qiutang gave the house away and then rented it out again?
They've been busy looking for shop locations elsewhere these past few days, and they haven't actually been to the central street area.
Yu Qinghe couldn't sit still any longer. "Everyone, let's eat quickly, and then we'll go take a look!"
As he spoke, he quickly shoveled rice into his bowl.
The others didn't say anything more and quickened their pace of eating.
Then a group of people went over to take a look and found that there really was a rental advertisement posted.
Yu Qiuying immediately made the phone call.
About an hour later, an elderly woman in her sixties arrived.
When Yu Qiuying asked, she found out that the place was indeed for rent, but the rent was twice as expensive as before.
It used to be three thousand a month, now it's six thousand.
Yu Qiuying didn't think much about it and rented it anyway.
Six thousand it is. It's important to rent the shop first and open it up. After all, if we don't open it for a day, we'll lose a thousand or so dollars. Once it's open, we can cover the rent for a month in a week.
