"She spoke rather late, so there are some things she doesn't understand."
Big Sis Du quickly explained to them. Wu Ya stuck close to Liu Shufang and allowed her to carry him to the yard next door.
Ning Haitao focused on whether the house was safe or not. He found that there was a door to the house and the door was tightly shut. It seemed to be very safe.
The courtyard wasn't too big, and it couldn't be compared to the countryside at all. There were many miscellaneous objects within the courtyard, as though it was a trash storage area.
The main house was made of clay and was low in height. There were two small rooms, a kitchen and a dining room. The living quarters looked very similar to the living quarters in the house.
The door led to a dark wall. It was better to live in a house with newspapers on the walls. It was better looking than a mud wall, but it was also dark for some time.
There was a musty smell in the room, and the ground was compacted. There was a kang in the east room and a mess in the west room.
His first impression was not as good as his! However, thinking about the fact that the price wasn't too expensive and Big Sis Du also taking care of it, and the fact that the house was being tidied up by someone, as long as he could buy some lime and brush it, it was still possible for someone to live here.
What Liu Shufang and he were concerned about was not the same question. What she was concerned about was whether or not there was a cauldron, and whether or not the stove pit was useful. These were the essential conditions for her to earn money.
"Big Sis Du, can this stove pit be used?"
"Sure, let your man dig out the ashes. He was originally living with my family's old man, and he hasn't been tidied up either. You better behave yourself!" "You can take the broken wood in the yard and burn it. Anyway, we have plenty of it, and your brother-in-law works in the wood factory, so he can bring back a cart of broken wood at any time. This sort of convenience is still possible."
Big Sis Du, who was afraid of getting tired of Liu Shufang, took the child from her arms, pointed at the pile of broken wood in the yard, and smiled as she spoke to the couple.
"Hai Tao, I think it's fine. Let's just rent it!" "Alright, let's clean it up."
When Liu Shufang heard that this was a convenient condition, she happily looked at Ning Haitao. The city was different from the countryside; it was hard to find matches by burning them.
"Sure, big sis, are we going to pay once a month?"
Ning Haitao nodded in agreement, then looked towards Big Sis Du and asked her about proper business.
"It should be at least 3 months, but we are all familiar with it, so it's fine even if we pay once a month."
Big Sis Du liked the couple and made a bright decision.
"That's great, Big Sis Du. When I have money in the future, I'll just have to do it in the first quarter."
Liu Shufang became even happier when she heard this. She didn't have much money on hand, so she still had to hand over the money to her mother-in-law to pay her debts.
"Fine, it's fine. Let's eat at my place today!"
Big Sis Du had a good neighbor, so she generously invited them to stay for dinner.
"No, I have an old mother who is sick at home, I have to hurry back to cook."
Liu Shufang smiled and shook her head. How could she agree so easily?
"Here's the money, let's sign the contract!"
Liu Shufang had stayed in the modern world and knew the importance of contracts. She planned to sign a one-year long contract and pay each month, so cleaning up the house like this was worth it.
"Sure, what did you say? I didn't say it."
Big Sister Du smiled. Her dark red face was already covered in wrinkles, making her look very old.
When everything was done, the couple placed the things they bought in the house. Ning Haitao stayed behind to clean up the house while Liu Shufang went home to cook.
"Shufang, don't tell mom first. If she knows she's spending three yuan a month to rent a house, she'll be furious."
"Alright, I understand."
Liu Shufang smiled and promised, "Brush the walls, and the room will be brighter."
Liu Shufang arranged all the work she could not do for her husband. Ning Haitao nodded in agreement and urged her to hurry home.
Now that Liu Shufang had become more intelligent, she didn't go home to buy things. She sold most of the money to her mother-in-law, and kept a small portion for herself. It was very convenient to spend.
Just like today, if she rented a house in the city, her mother-in-law would never give her money.
When she returned home and saw the cold bowl of food, she didn't pay much attention. If her mother-in-law had good arms and legs, she wouldn't be willing to serve as a young wife.
She first entered the east room and saw Zhang Sanhua sitting alone on the brick bed. Her sister-in-law Hai Feng had not come back yet, so she took out 10 yuan and passed it to her mother-in-law.
"Mom, you keep the money."
Zhang Sanhua looked at the money and extended his hand to receive it. He also knew that Liu Shufang had been keeping her eyes open. The money she had returned a few days ago was much more than this.
However, she didn't mind talking too much. This money was earned by her daughter-in-law and Hai Tao, not the money from the land. She didn't know what to say.
After getting along with her for the past few days, he realized that this daughter-in-law wasn't that easy to bully.
Respect her, she is a filial wife. If you bully her, she will pretend she doesn't see you.
Her current attitude towards Hai Feng was similar to how she wouldn't even talk to her for a day, treating her as an invisible person who wouldn't even wake her up when eating.
After the meal, he pushed the bowl away. He would do whatever he had to do, and he would never reach out his hand when it came to washing the dishes.
"Where's Hai Tao!"
Putting the money in the cupboard, she noticed that her son hadn't come back yet and worriedly asked Liu Shufang.
"He has something to do in the county, so I'll go cook."
Liu Shufang replied with a simple sentence, then tied her apron and prepared to leave.
"Oh, can you come back tonight?"
Zhang Sanhua was not satisfied with her daughter-in-law's attitude. She was worried about Hai Tao, as she had been on tenterhooks these days. She was afraid that her son would be arrested for being opportunistic.
"I can come back."
Liu Shufang glanced at her and knew what she was worried about. She smiled as she replied and walked out of the room.
She planned to make some knobbly soup for lunch with some potato chips in it. It was also very fragrant and she came out with the food and dishes.
Since Hai Tao wasn't at home in the afternoon, she entered the space just in time to have a look. She finished the rest of the land and watered the rest, waiting for the harvest.
She walked out of her room just in time to see Liu Shufang move her lips. Liu Shufang looked away coldly, not even sparing her a glance.
The feeling of being ignored made Ning Hai Feng uncomfortable. She lowered her head and carried her backpack into the east room.
Liu Shufang lit up the stove pit, washed her hands, and cut up some green onions. She sprinkled some pepper noodles on top and brought it to the big pot. She watched as it got hot and poured some of the meat oil into the pot.
She had secretly thrown away those flavorful meats in the past, they had all deteriorated before she ate the bad guys.
After a while, the oil began to boil. The green onions blossomed, adding a bit of soy sauce while it was still hot. The room was filled with a fragrant smell.
He scooped up some water and poured it into the pot, then threw the chopped potato chips into the pot.
She began to mix the noodles and make knobbly soup. She slowly poured the water into the wok, and at the same time, she quickly stirred the water with her chopsticks, forming small pimples. She just needed to wait for the water to boil.
As he worked, he thought about how he should start his own small business. Should he go out in the afternoon to collect eggs?
Big Sis Du quickly explained to them. Wu Ya stuck close to Liu Shufang and allowed her to carry him to the yard next door.
Ning Haitao focused on whether the house was safe or not. He found that there was a door to the house and the door was tightly shut. It seemed to be very safe.
