When Lin Mo got up and was about to go home, Zhao En suddenly thought of something, quickly got up and took out a box, opened it to see that it was some silver, and then said to Lin Mo

"Xiao Mo definitely needs a lot of silver to open a restaurant in Qian Nan, these are the profits of the past few days, and some scattered silver taels left by Wu Fuzi's tuition fees add up to fifty taels, you can collect it to Qian Nan first."

Lin Mo looked at it and had to accept it first, after all, he was really short of money now. Liu Kui also took out a box at this time, and said with a smile: "This is the opening gift I prepared for you, you must accept it." ”

As he spoke, he handed it to Lin Mo, who took the box and found that it was quite heavy.

Lin Mo opened the box curiously and found that there were several rows of silver neatly placed inside, about a hundred taels.

Lin Mo and the others were shocked by this box of silver, and everyone looked at Liu Kui first, and Liu Kui said seriously

"Xiao Mo saved my life, avenged Xin'er's mother, and entrusted the tavern to me, I can't repay it now, these silver are my way to repay Xiao Mo's kindness."

Lin Mo was a little surprised and hurriedly excused himself

"I can't accept this, I'm good friends with Xin'er, Uncle Liu has helped me many times, helping you is what you should do, and this silver is saved by Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu to ......"

Speaking of this, Lin Mo was a little embarrassed to say more, Liu Kui understood at a glance, so he said very frankly

"After this incident, I have also figured out some things, Xin'er is actually very good in Mafu now, the Ma family takes good care of Xin'er, maybe staying in the Ma family is a better choice for Xin'er than coming back to live with me,"

Seeing Liu Kui calmly say this, Lin Mo was deeply touched, and from Liu Butcher's seemingly flat tone, Lin Mo could hear that as a father's love for his daughter and a deep sense of powerlessness, there was even a trace of determination.

This may indeed be a good choice for Liu Xin'er, but it is cruel to Liu Kui.

Even though Liu Kui said it so clearly, Lin Mo still refused to accept it.

Zhao En and his wife also persuaded Liu Kui to take it back, after all, this money was saved by Liu Kui and his wife for most of their lives, and it was too valuable, and Lin Mo really couldn't accept it.

Seeing this, Liu Kui could only take it back, and the few of them chatted for a long time, talking about some things and then Lin Mo left.

Grandpa didn't come back until the evening, and Lin Mo could only eat some by himself after making the meal, and then put the rest of the meal into the pot and went to rest first.

The next morning, Lin Mo woke up and found that his grandfather had returned, practicing boxing in the yard.

Ye Zhu and Zhu looked at each other speechlessly, and fought very tacitly for a while, and then had breakfast together.

Lin Mo told his grandfather that he was leaving today and that he would not be able to come back for a while, but his grandfather didn't say anything, but kept telling Lin Mo to be careful in everything.

Looking at Lin Mo's distant back, Grandpa was a little reluctant and helpless, and muttered to himself

"Lao Lin, I don't know if it's right to do this, but I can't keep Xiao Mo by my side all the time, the birds should fly around when they are older, always stay in the nest, and they will always be a chick that doesn't grow up."

Grandpa shook his head and went back to the house, while Lin Mo didn't know anything about what Grandpa said.

Lin Mo took a carriage along the way and soon arrived in Chennan, and Lin Mo got off the car and went straight to the shop.

Seeing that the door was not locked, Lin Mo pushed the door in, and at this time Lin Mo found that the decoration and layout in the house had been largely completed, it seemed that in the past few days of his absence, Zhou Fu and Wu Shun had been busy working quite well, and they had rewarded them with some silver money in vain.

At this time, Zhou Fu came out of the back room and happened to see Lin Mo, so he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Shopkeeper, have you come back?" I'm going to buy some food and drinks right now. ”

Lin Mo waved his hand and said, "No need, you are cleaning the house, you have worked hard these days, thank you for cleaning up the shop so well these days when I am not there?" ”

Zhou Fu hurriedly said that if it is not hard, it should be.

Lin Mo asked, "By the way, what about Wu Shun?" He doesn't have that?"

Zhou Fu said with a smile: "That bad gambler, now it is estimated that he is fooling around in the casino, and he will come back when the money is lost." ”

"Whoever you say is a bad gambler, I'm just going to play two handfuls of fun. I at least know how to be temperate, unlike the steward Wang who loses more than ten or twenty taels at a time. ”

"It's not because you don't have any money, or you'd gamble even more."

"Yes, I don't have any money, how can I be as generous as you, go to the Qinglou to see that Xiao Cui, and give her the two taels of silver that the shopkeeper rewarded you with at one time."

"Don't spew blood, when will I go to the Qinglou to see Xiaocui."

Lin Mo saw that the two were arguing, and hurriedly stopped the two, "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, since I'm back, it means that the shop is about to open, and I'll be busy." ”

As soon as the two saw that Lin Mo was angry, they quickly silenced, and Lin Mo then led the two of them to turn back and forth a few times to see what was still missing in the shop.

Suddenly, Lin Mo found a few dead rats in the corner, and Lin Mo asked suspiciously

"Where did these dead rats come from, and why did they all die here?"

Zhou Fu explained: "This is found when cleaning the back of the house, I asked when I was cleaning, a smell came, pushed the door and went in, there were several dead mice, they were all stinky, and some of them had no meat left, so I quickly cleaned them out, threw them to the wall, and prepared to dig a pit and bury them." ”

Wu Shun said with some pretended horror

"The shopkeeper didn't know how disgusting that scene was at that time, there was a mouse that should have been eaten by other mice, and there was only a skeleton left, and I really hadn't told such a scene. Could it be the soul of the dead shopkeeper? ”

"What are you talking nonsense, it is estimated that the rat was poisoned by eating the rat medicine, how can it be as evil as you say." Zhou Fu scoffed at what Wu Shun said.

Wu Shun hurriedly said: "Where did the rat medicine come from, I didn't find any room with rat poison." ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Lin Mo hurriedly stopped it: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel over this matter, don't move the room of the former shopkeeper for the time being, just leave it there, the two of you will go buy something later, I will make a list for you and buy it according to it." ”

The two said with some embarrassment: "Shopkeeper, we can't read." ”

Lin Mo had no choice but to say: "Then I'll tell you, you remember not to buy wrong, and don't call me the shopkeeper, I found a shopkeeper for you, and when everything is in order, it's about to open, I'll call him over, you will follow him to take good care of the restaurant, and in the future, call me the owner." ”

The two of them nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and Lin Mo told them some things to buy, and gave them some silver taels, telling them that after they bought them, the rest would be given to them as a reward.

When the two heard this, they immediately ran to buy something. Lin Mo was a little helpless, these two sometimes felt that they were a pair of living treasures. Lin Mo saw that this shop was about to become his new starting point, and he was full of emotion.

At this time, Lin Mo looked at the room of the former shopkeeper and the mouse corpse on the ground with some horror. It seems that I have to find a new place to live, and this house will be left to those two daring living treasures.

After Lin Mo went out, he first found a restaurant to eat, and asked to see who had an empty house.

In this era, renting a house is called renting a house or an apartment, and there are no notices or the like to rent a house, and there is no website to rent a house online, so you can only rely on your mouth to inquire.

Basically, whoever has a vacant house, whose house is going to be rented, the neighbors all know, and they can find out as soon as they ask.

Lin Mo came to a larger restaurant and ordered some wine and food, and when Xiao Er served the food, Lin Mo asked, "Xiao Er, is there any empty house in the vicinity that can be rented out." ”

Xiao Er said with some embarrassment: "This little one is not very clear, if the guest wants to know, the little one can run an errand for you to ask." ”

Lin Mo nodded: "This is a penny of silver, if you find it, it will be yours." As he spoke, he put a penny on the table.

Xiao Er's eyes immediately lit up, he glanced at the silver greedily, and immediately laughed

"Don't worry, guest, wrap it up on me."

Then he immediately ran away, while Lin Mo waited while eating.

After about two teas, Xiao Er led an old woman over, and Xiao Er introduced

"Guest officer, you are really lucky, this Grandma Chen has an empty house, you can talk to her."

Lin Mo nodded, got up and handed the silver to Xiao Er, who thanked Lin Mo happily and went back to work.

Lin Mo asked Grandma Chen to lead her to see the house.

On the way, Grandma Chen briefly introduced that her house belonged to her son, and then her son suffered a disaster on a boat, leaving her old couple alone, and she usually lived in a town outside the city, so she came back to clean it once a month, so as not to have ashes.

The two arrived after a while, Grandma Chen's house was in the corner of the city, although it seemed inconspicuous but the location was good, and it was much more than Lin Mo imagined, it was a two-entry house, with a small courtyard, and three rooms with a small kitchen.

Lin Mo was quite satisfied with it.

"How much is the rent?"

"You can give two taels of silver a month, and I don't want you to give much money, as long as this house is occupied, increase popularity, and don't fall dust."

Lin Mo was greatly moved when he heard this, this house is only two taels of silver a month, and only more than twenty taels a year, maybe Grandma just wants to keep the house not empty, so that she has a feeling that the child is still here.

Lin Mo paid off the rent for more than a year at one time, and helped Grandma Chen find a carriage, so that the coachman must send her home safely.

Looking at the carriage that was gradually moving away, Lin Mo thought about what happened to Grandma and sighed that the world was impermanent, and it was better to have fun in time.

Lin Mo turned around and looked at the house and began to get busy, fortunately, Grandma came back to clean, the house was not dirty, Lin Mo cleaned it briefly, and then went out to buy some daily necessities, which was considered to have arranged his stable nest.

Lin Mo thought about waiting for Zhao En and them to come over and live here together, so that they could also take care of each other.
