Chapter 67 Buying a House



Seeing Qin Xueqiong's dazed look, Old Lady Yao couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xueqiong, you are so happy, this is the first time you make money."

Qin Xueqiong nodded blankly and said, "Yes, this is the first time I have made money with my own hands." But at the end, she became worried, "Will...will this cause trouble for Xiaorou and Huaixu?"

"Don't worry, it won't happen. You worked hard to make bed sheets and quilt covers for people, so you must get some compensation. What's more, the money Manzhu gave you just now was in the form of a red envelope, so there will be no problem." Old Mrs. Yao said nonchalantly.

However, Qin Xueqiong was still worried, so she went to Qian Manzhu's house and returned the money.

Qian Manzhu certainly couldn't let Qin Xueqiong work for nothing. Seeing that the money was returned, she took a can of canned fruit and stuffed it into Qin Xueqiong's hand, "Sister, if you return it, you won't be able to move around in the future."

After hearing this, Qin Xueqiong finally gave in.

When she returned, she opened the canned fruit and gave it to Old Lady Yao and her two children. "This is the canned fruit that grandma earned. Eat it quickly."

"Thank you, grandma."

The two children ate the canned yellow peaches and thought they were super delicious.

Old Mrs. Yao ate a piece and said with a smile: "It's great that Xueqiong can make money."

When Tang Xiaorou came back, Qin Xueqiong told her about this.

"Mom, you are amazing. Aunt Qian thought to herself when she saw it, which shows that you have good cooking skills."

Hearing her daughter's praise, Qin Xueqiong's face was full of smiles, but she did not forget her daughter's contribution. "It's all thanks to your sketch, otherwise I can't imagine such a convenient quilt cover."

"Mom, that doesn't require your hands. For example, even if you know the styles of those quilt covers, you can draw them but you can't make them."

Old Mrs. Yao couldn't help laughing when she saw the mother and daughter bragging to each other, "Stop bragging, you two. Go and prepare lunch. Xiaoliang and Xiaoyan must be hungry."

"We are not hungry."

The two children said this with a smile, and then pulled Yao Bingcheng to play.

On the other side, Qian Manzhu washed the new bed sheets and quilt covers and hung them outside to dry. Bai Zhen, who was passing by, happened to see them and couldn't help asking, "Auntie, what are you drying?"

"This is the quilt cover. Look, there's a zipper here. When the time comes, just stuff the quilt in and make it flat. You won't need to sew anymore. Tell me, is this convenient?"

Hearing this, Bai Zhen's eyes lit up.

"Aunt, did you make this quilt cover yourself? It's so good. If I want a quilt cover like this, I won't have to sew quilts anymore."

Qian Manzhu shook her head and said, "How can your hands be so ugly? This was made by Xiaorou's mother. Look here, there is lace, it is so beautiful."

Bai Zhen really thought it looked beautiful, and when she heard that she could bring cloth and ask Aunt Qin to make a quilt cover, she hurried home to get the cloth.

"Xiao Rou, are you at home?"

Bai Zhen came over carrying a basket of eggs and a piece of floral cotton cloth.

"Yes."

Tang Xiaorou opened the door and saw her like this, and couldn't help asking, "You... don't want mom to make bed sheets and quilt covers, do you?"

Bai Zhen asked a little embarrassedly: "But...can I ask Auntie to do it? I saw Auntie Qian was covered with a quilt in the sun, it's really convenient."

Before Tang Xiaorou could say anything, Qin Xueqiong came over and said enthusiastically, "Of course."

"Thank you, auntie."

Bai Zhen thanked him quickly and put a basket of eggs on the table.

Qin Xueqiong smiled and waved her hand, saying, "We are all neighbors, why should we be so polite? However, it will take some time to make the quilt cover, so you can come back tomorrow to get it."

Bai Zhen nodded repeatedly, indicating that she was not in a hurry. She was afraid that Xiaorou and the others would stuff the eggs back, so she did not stay long and left quickly.

The next day, Bai Zhen got the new sheets and quilt covers as she wished. The lace and floral quilt covers really touched her heart. There was even a big love heart carved on the pillowcase with scraps of cloth.

"Auntie, this is so beautiful."

"Good if you like it. I thought you young people might like something a little more lively, so I stepped on an extra heart on your pillowcase."

Bai Zhen said happily: "Thank you, Auntie, I really like it."

Soon, people in the staff dormitory knew that the new bed sheets and quilt covers made by Qin Xueqiong were convenient and beautiful, and many people came to her to make them.

Looking at the increasing number of vegetables, fruits, bacon, etc. at home, Tang Xiaorou couldn't help but smile and said, "Mom, the things you have earned recently can support our whole family."

Qin Xueqiong's eyes lit up when she heard this.

“I’m glad I can do something for my family.”

This was her true feelings. She was really happy that the money she earned could provide her family with good food and drink. At this moment, she was radiant and much more confident and generous than before.

Old Mrs. Yao looked at Qin Xueqiong like this and couldn't help but smile: "Xueqiong, the family will rely on you in the future. But the facial cream Xiaorou gave you is so effective. You are much whiter now, and even the wrinkles on your face have decreased. You are becoming more and more beautiful."

In fact, Qin Xueqiong herself discovered that now her and her daughter seemed to have been reborn. They became whiter and more beautiful. All this was thanks to her daughter.

"Don't say that, Auntie. You've become younger yourself."

"Haha...it's all thanks to Xiaorou."

After the two talked for a while, Qin Xueqiong prepared to go out for a walk, "Aunt, you don't have to make sheets and quilt covers today. Let's go and see if there is a suitable house nearby. I don't know when Huai Xu will be back, so it's best for us to find a house before he comes back."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy, but remember to bring Bingcheng with you."

"good."

Qin Xueqiong took Yao Bingcheng for a walk, stopping here and there. Originally, she thought that they would return empty-handed today. Unexpectedly, when they passed a yard, they saw an old lady packing her things, who looked like she was going on a long journey.

"Auntie, you are packing your things."

Aunt Cao looked back after hearing this, nodded and said, "Yes, I am going to my son's place, and I may never come back."

Hearing this, Qin Xueqiong's eyes lit up.

"Auntie, are you renting out this house?"

Aunt Cao was stunned when she heard this, but she shook her head and said, "I won't rent it. I'm going to sell it."

"this……"

Qin Xueqiong hesitated when she heard this. She had only thought about renting a house before and had never thought about buying one.

At this time, Tang Xiaorou came back with Xiaoyan, "Mom, Bingcheng, what are you doing here?"

Qin Xueqiong quickly told the story again, and finally said: "Let's go to the other place tomorrow to have a look."

However, Tang Xiaorou looked at Aunt Cao and asked, "Auntie, can we go in and take a look at the house? If it's suitable, we can buy it."
