Chapter 315. Cheap Shop
Second Sister's Hu Zi came over the next day.
At the age of seventeen, he was almost 1.73 meters. It wasn't short at this time but compared with her sons, it wasn't that tall.
Still, he was still growing. He will definitely be tall in the future.
Lin Qing He smilingly welcomed, "Have you eaten?"
"I have. Aunt, you don't need to busy yourself." Hu Zi said with a little embarrassment.
"I heard from your mother that she wants you to go to the capital with your uncle and me. But that's what your mother's intention. Aunt wants to hear your own wishes." Lin Qing He expressed.
"Aunt, I want to go." Hu Zi answered, "Although I have only studied for a few years. I don't have high knowledge, but I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Lin Qing He smiled: "Then if I let you go to set up a stall, would you be afraid of losing face?"
It wasn't respectable to set up a street stall.
"What's there to be afraid of? I had even taken fish to the city to sell. The business is pretty good, but there are too few fish." Hu Zi responded.
This kid was tanned. One look and it was apparent he hanged out outside a lot.
Lin Qing He merrily said, "Since you are willing to go, there is no problem."
She told Hu Zi the time of departure, and then let him stay for lunch. Hu Zi didn't stay and went back.
Zhou Qing Bai said: "Not a bad kid."
Lin Qing He grinned and nodded: "He is a nice young lad."
This son of Second Sister won't do badly in the future. That if he was lead on the right path.
So the quota was decided. This time she goes back to the capital, she'll bring Zhou Er Ni, Xu Sheng Mei, and Hu Zi.
As for what Second Sister-in-law thought, Lin Qing He wasn't interested.
On the seventh day, Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai called Third Brother Lin along and came to the city.
Lin Qing He first came to find Shen Yu and settled the account from the end of the last year. Then came to find Su Da Lin with Zhou Qing Bai and Third Brother Lin.
"Da Lin, watching the children at home. I will take them over to Aunt's place." Zhou Xiao Mei said.
"Alright." Su Da Lin nodded.
Zhou Xiao Mei brought her fourth brother, her fourth sister-in-law, and Third Brother Lin to find Su Da Lin's Aunt.
Aunt Su said: "You're here at the right time."
It was most certainly the right time. One of her old classmates had two twin sons. Both sons were promising. The two brothers were all admitted to the university during the first college exam. They will graduate this year. What's it was arranged for them to go to the provincial city. They will settle down there and work there.
So they wanted to sell their property here and bring their parents over.
The property here was pretty good. Although it didn't have a large backyard, it was relatively spacious. If one renovates it themself, the family can live in it.
"The price isn't very cheap. The asking price is 700 yuan, but I think it can be bargained down a bit." Aunt Su told.
Seven hundred yuans?
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai looked at each other. If this were compared with the capital, it wasn't expensive at all.
Third Brother Lin bit his lips. 700 yuan. It wasn't cheap at all.
They went over. The two college students and their parents were present.
The next step was to look at the house.
Both Zhou Qing Bai and Lin Qing He thought it was pretty good after checking it out. Although it was counted as one, inside was divided into two rooms. The outside one wasn't too big. Still, doing business wasn't a big problem.
After all, it was only temporary. They can buy another when they have money.
"Seven hundred yuan isn't too much. We're selling it a little bit rushed. If not, another fifty yuan would be added." The eldest son said.
Lin Qing He didn't say anything. After all, the house was indeed good and the location was good.
She looked at Third Brother Lin and asked, "What do you think?"
"It's too expensive." Third Brother Lin couldn't help uttering.
"It's not expensive. When my father and mother built up this house, it cost a lot. With how good the situation is now, it may increase in the future." The second son said.
"If you want it, we can settle it today. If you don't want it, maybe someone else will come and see it tomorrow." The eldest son continued on.
Lin Qing He glanced at her younger brother, and said, "Then can you see if it can be cheaper? No matter how much cheaper, we can come to an agreement today. How about it?"
The two brothers looked at each other. Then they offered another twenty yuan cheaper. Can't be any less.
So this livable shop was bought for six hundred and eighty yuan. There was already someone on duty at the Housing Management Bureau. The transfer happened at once and the shop was owned by the Third Brother Lin.
Tomorrow Third Brother Lin will go clean up the property and let the previous family live for another day today. The brothers will take their parents to the provincial city by a bus tomorrow.
"Tomorrow you come by yourself. We won't accompany you." Lin Qing He said to Third Brother Lin.
"Sister, I'm afraid I won't pay you back so soon." Third Brother Lin nodded.
"Don't worry about it." Lin Qing He didn't care and emotionally remarked: "This shop is really cheap."
Third Brother Lin uttered in disbelief: "It's not cheap either."
It was because he made a lot last year. If not, how can the family possibly take out any money?
"Don't be silly. This shop is bought. Do your best and you won't do badly, right?" Lin Qing He said.
Third Brother Lin nodded.
The next day he came over and collected the key. He also changed the lock by himself. Then he started cleaning the shop himself.
Third Brother Lin took in the shop. Although the shop was a bit expensive, his heart was filled with joy.
This was his shop. He never thought that he would be able to buy a shop in the city.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai left on the tenth of January.
Together with them were Zhou Er Ni, Xu Sheng Mei, and Hu Zi.
Eldest Sister-in-law, Eldest Brother, Eldest Sister, and Second Sister came to the city to see them off. They also instructed the children to be obedient.
Only when the bus left, did Eldest Sister-in-law and others turned to go home. It was then, they saw Zhou Liu Ni who was hiding.
"Liu Ni, why are you here?" Eldest Sister-in-law asked.
"I just came over to witness how biased my fourth aunt is!" Said Zhou Liu Ni and ran away.
"This child!" Eldest Sister-in-law frowned.
"Where are you running off to? You have to go back." Eldest Brother spoke.
They let Eldest Sister and Second Sister go back first. Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law searched for Zhou Liu Ni for more than an hour. They came up empty. Once they got home, they found that Zhou Liu Ni got home at an unknown time.
Zhou Liu even complained: "Eldest Uncle, what were you doing? I walked all the way and you still hadn't caught up. Did you deliberately avoid me to not let me catch a ride? Our family also has a share of this bike!"
This made the normally even-tempered Eldest Sister-in-law mad.
