Du Shiming and his wife had to leave their hometown back then, and if they could, they also hoped to live in a rich place and live a stable life.
But they didn't dare, Sun is now in his forties, and the charm is still there, and their two daughters look like mothers, and they are like flowers, which makes the couple love and worry.
If they can live in this Kangguan City, with what the Sun family did for Xia Lianxin, I believe that this Hou Ye and Mrs. will take care of them, and with the Hou Mansion as a backer, they don't have to be afraid of how good-looking they are.
Now that Du Yucian is almost eight months pregnant, it is time to prepare for childbirth, and Du Shiming and his wife have discussed renting a cheap house in the countryside, so that the eldest daughter can wait for delivery and confinement with peace of mind.
Of course, the conditions in the countryside are not as good as those in the city, just take the courtyard where they live now, there are two main houses and four partial houses, and they have never lived in such a spacious place!
Du Shiming and his wife were moved by Xia Baihe's persuasion, the two looked at each other, and Sun said: "Miss Xia, such a good place and such a good house, of course we want to stay, but we are acting in shadow puppetry, and we have to show up every day, in case one day the Marquis Sun and the people from the yamen recognize me......
Xia Lianxin calculated her mother-in-law in order to protect herself and her children, and people who understand this matter will understand her inadmissibility, but if there is another person like Zhu Xiangyao, she will definitely take the opportunity to black her again and frame the Xia family.
Xia Lily also thought about this: "Auntie, you wear a veil when you go to court, and when you see it, no one will think of the Du family who troubles Old Madam Qu, but I ask you, can acting in shadow puppets really support your family? In the future, your population will become more and more." ”
Du Yucian is about to give birth, a family of six will become a family of seven, Du Yumoth will also get married and have children in two years, how much money can a shadow puppet show rely on the audience to reward, it is indeed not easy to live.
"It doesn't matter, if I can stay here, I can find some laundry work, the people here are so well dressed and rich, and it should be easy to find a job. Du Yumoth said optimistically, she didn't want her sister to be born and run around.
"I can also go outside to look for work, I inquired, there are a lot of freight yards here, because the business of the grain store cloth shop hotel is booming, they need to unload the goods, and the salary is a lot!" Li Erzhuang also said that he was also about to marry a daughter-in-law, how could he always rely on the future Yue's family to eat.
"I can also carry the bag and unload the goods......" Li Dazhuang bowed his head softly and said, his attitude was not afraid of hardship and tiredness, he was afraid of Xia Lily, since he was trained by Xia Lily on the mountain, the murderous aura he had never experienced made him dare not speak loudly or even raise his head in front of Xia Lily from now on.
For Li Dazhuang was so scared that she had "sequelae", Xia Lihe didn't notice it at all, she was treating Du Yucian on the mountain at the time, and the patient was still doing acupuncture, Li Dazhuang was so anxious that he threw himself up, if the silver needles on Du Yucicada's body were touched crooked, and a few were touched, who could bear the consequences?
But after the training, Xia Lihe forgot that she has always been quick and accurate in the rescue on the battlefield, and that place is not a mouthful, she is used to the death of those who stand in the way!
Li Dazhuang is just an ordinary person, he doesn't say that he has gone to the battlefield in person, even if he has never seen real blood, so he is afraid in the face of Xia Lily's murderous aura, of course, this is also because Xia Baihe almost came back to life to save his wife, otherwise she pierced so many needles in his wife's "corpse", and the young man would have played with his life if he was impulsive.
Xia Baihe didn't know Li Dazhuang, and she didn't have the heart to understand, she saw that the Du family had a plan to make life better, so she smiled and said: "In this way, a shadow puppet show doesn't need many people, so auntie, can you open a small noodle restaurant?"
"I'm opening a store?" was surprised by the named Sun.
"Yes, these days I eat all the noodles you made, chicken, pork, vegetarian, seafood, and all kinds of side dishes you mix with your own hands, the taste is good, I haven't eaten it in the capital!" Xia Lihe praised sincerely.
"How can it be so ......good," Sun said modestly, her face was full of joy, she now knew Xia Lily's identity, how could she not be happy to be praised by such a famous and noble girl who had eaten the royal banquet for her cooking skills.
"Yes, my mother's noodle dish is the best I've ever tasted, and not only I like it, but my kids like it too. Du Yucian smiled and touched her belly, when she was in the early stages of pregnancy, she couldn't eat anything else, except for the noodles and side dishes made by Sun, and her appetite was great at the sight.
"Miss Xia's idea is really good, my mother is in charge of the kitchen and my father is in charge of the accounts, I wash the dishes and vegetables in the backyard, and my brother-in-law and Erzhuang are the guests in the running hall. Du Yumo's eyes are shining, and if a noodle restaurant is to open well, it is enough for seven or eight people to live.
Also, women work in the kitchen, so there is less risk of showing up, Xia Lihe added in her heart, looking at Du Yumo's eyes with appreciation, she just got up, this girl immediately said the division of labor, maybe she is still a good trader.
Du Shiming and his wife are also excited to hear it, if they can open a restaurant, everyone will have a fixed place to live, and they no longer have to sleep in the open......
Thinking like this and hesitating, Xia Lihe took out a few more pieces of paper from her sleeve: "It just so happens that there is a small shop in my sister's dowry that the lease period has arrived, it turned out to be a grocery store, and the family went back to their hometown, my sister has not found anyone to renew the lease because of something in recent days, this shop is not big, but it is still okay to open a small noodle restaurant, it is not a downtown area, but it is also crowded with people." ”
"This ......" Du Shiming took the contract and looked at it, it was written that it was a month of silver, this money ...... The Du family can't afford it.
"My sister said that she doesn't want you to pay the rent for the first year, and I hope you can clean up the shop, and she has to thank you if you can drive the popularity of that area in the future. Xia Baihe had expected that Du Shiming and his wife would be embarrassed by taking out the contract, and the reason had already been found.
Sun's kindness will be repaid, Du Shiming also has the character of a scholar, if they want to give them a shop or no rent, they will never accept it, and when Xia Baihe said this, their husband and wife also understood that this was an excuse for them to look good, and the two were still a little hesitant.
Du Yumoth didn't think so much, and when she heard that the rent was waived for one year, she immediately refused: "Miss Xia, we don't dare to rent if you don't want rent, no matter how good a small noodle restaurant is, how much popularity can it drive?"
But you have done my sister a great favor! What if the life of a few people is to give away the shop for nothing, in fact, Xia Lian wanted to thank again, it was Xia Lihe who did not let her, she knew Du Shiming and his wife better, she wanted to say that she had to thank her for saving her life, and the husband and wife would definitely have to respond to the rescue of Du Yuchan's mother and son.
This favor is really going to be broken up and calculated one by one, it will become a transaction, and the two parties will not be able to talk about gradually deepening their relationship, Du Shiming and his wife have good character, Xia Lihe doesn't want to change from acquaintances to strangers with them.
"Why don't you try it first, and then discuss the details with my sister when you make money?" Xia Lily took a step back.
People are taking care of their face, Du Shiming and his wife are not ignorant, now that Du Yucian is about to give birth, they really need a stable place to live, and they also need spare money, the two looked at each other again, and decided to accept Xia Lily's kindness, but this rent, they will save money to pay it back.
"Miss Xia, don't you live with your sister?" Du Yumoth felt strange when she heard Xia Lily hand over the follow-up of everything to Xia Lianxin.
"I still have to see my father, my brother and sister-in-law, my nephews and nieces. Xia Bai replied reasonably.
Everyone in the world has heard about the affairs of the Xia family, Xia Lily is normal to think about relatives, and the Du family can only say some auspicious words and smooth sailing, and then a few people discussed how to open the store, what specialty dishes should be launched in the store, Xia Lily gave Du Yucian another pulse diagnosis, and after confirming that it was safe, he said goodbye and left.
went to court today, because she was accompanied by her sister dressed as a maid, Xia Lianxin asked several other maids to also wear veils, and now they came out of the court to Du's house and came out again, Xia Lily and Yaocao still covered their faces with tulle.
Blocking a layer, they can still see others clearly, and it will be difficult for others to recognize them, Xia Baihe was not far from the Protector's Mansion, and saw the old beggar she had saved yesterday looking around with the little beggar, and he also had a roll of paper in his hand, as if he was looking for someone.
Xia Baihe's heart moved, and she said to Yaocao: "You go back first, I still have some business." ”
Yaocao is the son of the Xia family, although she follows the second miss, as long as the third lady's orders and the second miss have no conflict of interest, she still has to listen to the maid.
Listen to it, but leaving the third lady outside alone, it is not easy for Yaocao to go back, so she agreed, but the person walked a few steps forward and waited for Xia Lily at the small door.
Xia Lily walked towards the old beggar's ancestors, walked to them and paused slightly, but didn't speak, just glanced casually, and then continued to walk forward, until she turned to a place where Yaocao couldn't see and no one was there, she stopped and waited.
Sure enough, as Xia Lily expected, the old beggar grandson also came over a few minutes later: "Girl, we are looking for you!"
"Is there something wrong?" Xia Lihe guarded against Yaocao, but she didn't want to have more rights and wrongs, she herself didn't have any prejudice against beggars, except for the kind of people who could find a legitimate job to support themselves, but were too lazy to ask for food.
The grandparents in front of her, the old and the young, according to her view of time and space, are retired and in elementary school, and it is very difficult for them to support themselves.
"This ......," said the old beggar, handing over the roll of paper in his hand as if offering a treasure.
