Chapter 37 We're rich! We're rich! We're rich!!! (1/2)



We're rich! We're rich! We're rich!!!

Inside the house, Yu Qiuying was so excited that her hands were trembling as she held the five stacks of money.

This is truly an unexpected delight!

That's great! With this money, why would she need to set up a stall? She can just buy a shop!

Yu Qiuying was excited when she heard someone calling her from outside, "Old Yu, Old Yu!"

It was Wang Xiuying's voice.

She quickly put all the money into her spatial storage.

When she went outside, good heavens, a group of people were gathered at the gate of her yard, craning their necks to look inside.

"Old Yu, the police are looking for you, is it for something?" Of all the people, only Wang Xiuying truly cared about Yu Qiuying.

The others were either curious or there to watch the spectacle.

"Widow Yu, what do the police want with you?"

"Yes, it gave me a fright just now. I thought something had happened to your family."

"Widow Yu, has your youngest son gotten into some trouble outside?"

Yu Qiuying glared at the person who said that, "Your son is the one who got into trouble!"

Then, ignoring the gossipy women, he smiled and said to Wang Xiuying, "It's nothing, even if something happens, it's a good thing."

Seeing that she could still smile, Wang Xiuying was relieved. "It's good that you're alright. You gave me quite a fright."

Seeing that Yu Qiuying didn't seem to be in any trouble, the others were a little disappointed. Sigh, no more excitement to be seen, let's go.

At noon, Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiadong returned from their trip to the county town.

As soon as she entered the door, Zhou Cailian asked, "Mom, Aunt Guifang said that a lot of police officers came to our house this morning. What happened?"

Zhou Cailian went to the county town with Zhou Jiadong early this morning. Zhou Jiadong's bedding is still at the construction site and hasn't been brought back yet.

Zhou Jiadong had already decided to go to Dongguan Province with Yu Qiuying after the New Year. He was no longer going to study architecture, so he had to personally tell his master and bring his things back.

Zhou Cailian accompanied him and also brought two jars of dried radishes and some vegetables grown at home to the Qiu family.

"Nothing's wrong. Have you two had lunch yet?"

Seeing that Yu Qiuying was clearly in a good mood, Zhou Cailian breathed a slight sigh of relief. "No, Aunt Qiu did want us to stay for dinner, but I didn't want to trouble her. She has four children, two of whom have colds, and Aunt Qiu looks much more haggard. I felt embarrassed to ask her to stay for dinner when I saw how tired she was."

"Sigh, having too many children isn't good either; it's exhausting. If they grow up to be kind-hearted, that's fine, but if they're heartless, it's better to raise a blockhead." Yu Qiuying said, glancing at Zhou Jiadong.

Zhou Jiadong: "..."

Realizing his mother was subtly implying something, Zhou Jiadong touched his nose, thinking to himself, "How could I be so heartless?"

However, he didn't dare say it out loud.

He rubbed his stomach and changed the subject, "Mom, is there any food left? I'm hungry..."

"There's still rice, but no vegetables. How about I cook some rice noodles for you two?" Yu Qiuying asked Zhou Cailian for her opinion.

Zhou Cailian said, "Okay, I'll cook it."

Yu Qiuying went back into the house, and when she came out again, she had a bag of rice noodles and two eggs in her hand.

These eggs were bought from Wang Xiuying's family.

I haven't bought much meat lately, since I only have a little over a thousand yuan. Every little bit I spend counts. I'm going to Dongguan after the New Year. Even though it's just a stall, there are still a lot of things that will cost money, so I have to be careful with my spending.

But now we don't need to be frugal anymore; we'll go to town tomorrow to buy meat!

So the next day after breakfast, Yu Qiuying went to town.

This time, she went straight to buy a bicycle, then pushed it to the market and bought 20 jin of pork belly, 10 jin of ribs, 10 jin of lean meat, and two pig trotters, filling half a snakeskin bag.

Finally, I bought another grass carp and two pounds of flour.

She decided not to buy anything else, as town was still inconvenient. Yu Qiuying planned to go to the county another day to rent a tricycle and then do a big shopping spree.
