"Uncle Su, Aunt Qin!" Zhou Yi trotted over to them.
Su Mingzhe and Qin Qin looked at Zhou Yi with smiles on their faces. Qin Qin even gently wiped the sweat off her forehead: "Silly child, why are you running so fast? Your head is covered in sweat."
"Aren't I just afraid that you'll have to wait for too long?" Zhou Yi took her arm, acting a little coquettishly.
"This is my shop, what do you think?" Qin Qin pulled Zhou Yi and turned around, pointing to the shop in front of them.
"That's great, Aunt Qin." Zhou Yi said excitedly.
"As long as it suits you." Qin Qin smiled slightly and looked at the layout of the shop. If you look closely, it is not difficult to see some reluctance in her eyes.
Su Mingzhe looked at the two of them standing together, talking and laughing. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Zhou Yi's profile was somewhat similar to his wife's, except that Zhou Yi was a little fatter.
"By the way, Aunt Qin, Uncle Su, this is my partner Yunfeng." Zhou Yi pointed at Yunfeng and introduced him generously.
"Brother Feng, this is Su Mingzhe, the son of the old lady we rescued on the road, and his daughter-in-law Qin Qin." They would inevitably interact with each other in the future, so Zhou Yi introduced the other party.
"Uncle Su, Aunt Qin, hello." Yunfeng stepped forward and greeted them politely.
"Hello, good, your partner looks very handsome." Su Mingzhe shook hands with Yunfeng.
After walking around the entire shop, Qin Qin and Su Mingzhe introduced the shop to them.
Zhou Yi specifically asked Yunfeng to bring the planning drawings and decoration drawings. She took them out to show Su Mingzhe and Qin Qin, and told them that the shop would be decorated like this in the future and asked whether they could accept it.
Su Mingzhe and Qin Qin looked at the planning drawings and decoration drawings for a long time, not knowing whether they were looking at the decoration drawings or thinking about something else.
Su Mingzhe glanced at Qin Qin from time to time, as if waiting for her to make a decision.
"Okay, go ahead and install it." Qin Qin handed the decoration drawings to Su Mingzhe, as if she was replying to Zhou Yi, but more like she was talking to Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe nodded and said nothing.
"What about the rent?" Zhou Yi looked at Qin Qin and felt that she was a little distracted.
"Kid, just pay whatever rent you think is appropriate." Qin Qin said with a smile.
"That won't work. The rent for a street-facing shop is generally 100 yuan a month. Aunt Qin, your shop is bigger than other shops, and the decoration itself is also very good. If we just do some changes inside, it will cost at least 300 yuan a month." Zhou Yi analyzed.
"You don't need that much. Just give me 100 yuan a month like usual." Qin Qin said quickly.
"That won't work. Friendship is friendship, but the amount must be clear." Zhou Yi was determined.
Su Mingzhe looked at Zhou Yi's style and nodded, thinking that he was a good businessman.
"Xiaoyi, how about this, 200 yuan per month. It's a little gift from your Aunt Qin, you should accept it." Su Mingzhe smiled and said a compromise figure.
"Thank you, Uncle Su, and Aunt Qin. I'll go back tonight and draw up a contract, and we'll sign it tomorrow. Now that we've met the renovation team Uncle Su introduced, can we start the renovations?"
Zhou Yi smiled brightly. The shop rent in the 1980s was really cheap. If this shop was in modern times, it would definitely cost at least 100,000 yuan.
Zhou Yi and Yunfeng invited Su Mingzhe and his wife to have lunch at a state-owned restaurant, and then everyone went about their own business.
Yunfeng took the address of the decoration team foreman given by Su Mingzhe and went there.
Zhou Yi hadn't seen Tang Xiaoqing for a few days and was very worried about her, so he bought some candy and went to the Calligraphy Association to visit Tang Xiaoqing and also to see the white-haired Li Renshi.
She stayed at the calligraphy association for quite some time. The sky was gradually getting darker and it looked like it would rain later, so she left.
Zhou Yi was thinking about the original owner's cheap sister-in-law who was still in the military compound, so he hurried to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some meat and vegetables, and walked back carrying big and small bags.
It was still a short distance before they returned to the military compound. It was already dark and raindrops as big as beans were falling. Zhou Yi cursed herself in her heart, "Why didn't you walk faster?" There was a small eaves on the bulletin board next to the cornfield in front of her that could shelter her from the rain, so she ran over quickly.
"Want to run? Li Zhao, aren't you very capable? I'll kill you today."
Suddenly, there was a sound of chasing on the path in the cornfield, and then the sound of fists hitting people was heard, and a man was saying harsh words.
The rain was getting heavier and their voices were hard to hear.
Zhou Yi held her breath and stared at the direction of the sound with great nervousness, wondering if this was a fight? Could she be so unlucky?
But please don’t hit us here! Forget it, I’d better go back quickly. It’s better to get wet in the rain than lose my life. I was just about to run back in the rain.
Then he saw a figure covered in blood. His long hair was wet by the rain and stuck to his face. His facial features were a little indistinguishable. He glanced at Zhou Yi fiercely, with obvious warning in his eyes, and then quickly ran into the irrigation channel on the other side of the cornfield.
After a while, two or three people came running after him. They looked around for someone and saw Zhou Yi standing there. A man walked over in the rain, wiped the rain off his face, and asked viciously, "Fatty, did you see a man with long hair and blood passing by?"
Zhou Yi was nervous for a moment and didn't know how to respond. If she told the truth, that person might really die, but if she didn't say it, she didn't know what would happen to her.
"I didn't see it." She said softly with her head down.
The heavy rain was so loud that the man obviously didn't hear Zhou Yi say "I didn't see it". He thought she was deliberately not answering him, so he slapped her and said fiercely: "Fuck you, I'm asking you a question, do you hear me?"
Zhou Yi was slapped in the face. He stared at the man with his eyes fixed and instinctively kicked him in the crotch. The man immediately curled up and rolled on the ground in pain.
"You damn bitch, how dare you hit my brother?" The other two men came over. One of them slapped him in the face and continued to beat him hard, cursing, "You bitch, if you touch my brother, you will go to hell to meet the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced God."
Zhou Yi didn't say anything, just stared at him. The man was completely furious. He was already furious because he failed to kill Li Zhao and let him get away. Now even a fat woman dared to attack them. How could this be tolerated?
He grabbed Zhou Yi's hair and pulled her to the ground, and she fell heavily into the mud.
Just when she thought she was going to be in trouble, Yun Gaofei's previous words suddenly flashed through her mind: "Military family members are also protected by the law. If you intentionally harm a military family member, you could go to jail at the very least."
"Stop. I'm a military wife working in the military compound in front. My husband is a battalion commander. If you intentionally harm a military family member, you will go to jail." Zhou Yi said loudly, fearing that the other party would not be able to hear what she said because of the sound of rain.
Sure enough, when the other party heard her say that she was a military wife, he stopped. There was indeed a military compound not far ahead, and it didn't look like she was lying.
Hearing Zhou Yi introduce herself as a military wife, the younger man, who had remained silent and unmoved, yanked Zhou Yi's hair viciously, squinted his eyes, and sneered:
"So what if I'm a military wife? So great? Huh?"
