After hearing what Lu Yanzhou said, Lin Yunchu carefully folded the deed in his hand in half, put it in his pocket, and patted it.
Only then did he turn around with relief and looked up at the sky. It was not too late yet and he could stay in town for a while.
"Let's clean up the shop first, then go to the market to buy some more things and then go back."
Lin Yunchu originally wanted to go to the market to visit his uncle and aunt of the Xie family, and tell them about this good news to make them happy.
However, by the time they have packed up the shop, the Xie family's stall will probably have closed down long ago. But there is no rush about this matter. I can talk to them next time I come to town.
After hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lu Yanzhou did not object at all. He nodded in agreement with Lin Yunchu's words, and the two of them did not stay in front of the county government office for too long.
Otherwise, when it gets late, the Lin family will worry about you when you go back.
The two of them hurried to the newly bought shop. This time, the shop was already theirs. Holding the key in his hand, Lin Yunchu's heart was full of emotion.
When they came out today, the two of them brought buckets, brooms, and towels. Lu Yanzhou rolled up his sleeves and started fetching water.
Lin Yunchu cleaned the shop inside and out...
The two of them cleaned up for nearly an hour, and it finally looked presentable. It looked much cleaner and tidier than what they saw yesterday.
Lin Yunchu paced back and forth in the shop, muttering to Lu Yanzhou: "Brother Yanzhou, let's build a pot rack here, and then we can cook here when the time comes."
Lin Yunchu pointed to the outermost eaves and spoke with a smile.
Then he spread his hands and said loudly to the large open space opposite: "Place the tables and chairs made by Dad and Big Brother here. Guests can eat here..."
While Lu Yanzhou was carefully wiping the counter, he listened quietly to Lin Yunchu's chatter with a smile on his face.
She nodded from time to time. If she didn't say anything, Lin Yunchu would probably think he wasn't listening to her.
Lin Yunchu chattered on for a long time, and when it seemed like it was almost time, the two of them closed the shop and hurried towards the market.
When the two returned to the Lin family, Lin's father and others were still busy in the yard, and a lot of planed wood had been placed nearby.
When Father Lin raised his eyes, he saw Lin Yunchu who had just entered the yard. The corner of his mouth raised, and then he put down the tools in his hand and stepped forward.
He asked with a smile: "You are back. Have you finished your work?"
Thinking about the shop his family had bought in town, Lin's father couldn't help but smile.
He had never dared to think about this in the past. When he heard Lin Yunchu say it yesterday, he was shocked. He was still a little bit unbelievable throughout the whole night and even half of the day.
He was a little confused, but now he perked up when he saw Lin Yunchu coming back from the town.
Seeing this, the others also gathered around Lin Yunchu. Lu Yanzhou, who had tied up the ox cart outside the yard and followed in, saw everyone's reaction and raised the corner of his lips in amusement.
Then he closed the courtyard door and quickly walked forward to the crowd and said, "Okay, let's go inside and talk first. It's so inconvenient outside."
There are a lot more people in front of the Lin family compound now than before, with people coming and going all day long. It would be better to talk about this inside.
"Yes, yes, let's go inside and talk first."
Lin Qingshan grabbed Lin's father and walked into the house, although he had no intention of hiding the matter of buying the shop from the people in the village.
Besides, this cannot be concealed. Once the Lin family snack shop opens, people in the village will know about it.
However, walls have ears, so it’s not appropriate to announce the details of the shop purchase to everyone. It’s enough for them to know only among their family members.
To prevent it from being discovered by someone with ulterior motives and causing unnecessary trouble, that would be looking for trouble.
Seeing this, everyone followed him into the house. Seeing that everyone was there, Lin Yunchu took out the deed and handed it to Lin's father.
Father Lin looked at the deed in Lin Yunchu's hand, swallowed excitedly, and his fingers trembled slightly. This deed was bought for fifty taels of silver.
Let alone fifty taels, I didn't even have five copper coins in the past two years. So much time has passed in the blink of an eye, and I have even bought a shop in town.
My family now owns a shop in town.
Father Lin grinned until Lin Qingshan nudged him with his elbow. Then he came to his senses and laughed embarrassedly at Lin Qingshan twice.
He quickly took the deed handed over by Lin Yunchu, opened it and took a look. Although he could not understand the words on it, he thought it must be correct since Lin Yunchu and Lu Yanzhou were watching this matter today.
"That's my sister's name."
The youngest, Lin Chang'an, was short and couldn't see the deed in his father's hand. He walked around anxiously, his face flushed red.
He quickly pulled Lin Changting's hand and asked him to pick up his son, as he wanted to see too.
He couldn't see the densely packed words on the deed clearly, but he could see clearly that Lin Yunchu's name was written at the bottom.
Pointing at the signature above, he shouted excitedly.
After hearing Lin Changan's words, everyone in the Lin family was even happier. There was no problem now. It had Lin Yunchu's name written on it, so there was no mistake.
This shop belongs to the Lin family.
Originally, Lin Yunchu wanted to register the shop under her father's name, but the Lin family members were unwilling to do so and told her to just go to the town with Lu Yanzhou.
The family's current situation is all because of Lin Yunchu. What problem can there be in registering it under her name? With Lin Yunchu watching over it, everyone in the Lin family feels at ease.
Lin Yunchu didn't refuse, it was all the same anyway.
Father Lin stroked the deed in his hand, looked at it again and again, and finally handed it to Mother Lin behind him, asking her to take it into the house and keep it safe.
Mother Lin nodded happily in agreement, took the deed, looked at it excitedly for a few seconds, then carefully folded it in half, turned around and went into the house to put it away.
Father Lin was even more delighted when he saw this. He clapped his hands excitedly and stood up, laughing loudly at Lin Qingshan and said:
"We should celebrate today, big brother. You guys can eat here tonight. Let the child's mother and Xiuxiu cook a few more dishes."
When Pan Xiuxiu's name was mentioned, he seemed to have thought of something, then turned around and said to Lin Changting, "Changting, go to Xiuxiu's house later and call your uncle Pan over."
Hearing what Lin's father said, Lin Changting nodded in agreement without thinking.
Lin's mother, who was walking out of the house, heard what Lin's father said. She didn't say anything, rolled up her sleeves and walked towards the kitchen, intending to see what other dishes were at home.
I'll make a delicious meal for everyone in the evening, to celebrate the purchase of a new shop.
