"I have other embroidery work here, the previous matchmaker asked me to embroider pillows and quilts for a person who married a daughter, if you are interested......"

Qin Chu didn't care about the words later. When she heard Mrs. Zhang, her thoughts were all on this person.

The reason why she was able to quickly gain a foothold in Wansong Town was thanks to Mrs. Cheng. Although her son later took her to the city, Qin Chu has always been grateful to her in his heart.

She is not familiar with life here, if she can cooperate with this matchmaker Zhang, she will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Thinking of this, Qin Chu paid a deposit of ten copper plates with the boss of the cloth village, took a bundle of ropes, and then went out of the store. I inquired all the way and went to Mrs. Zhang.

However, not all people are like Mrs. Cheng, as soon as Qin Chu explained his intentions, he was lukewarmly kicked out by this Mrs. Zhang.

"What this little lady said is really ridiculous."

Mrs. Zhang sat by the window and teased her little grandson, without lifting her eyelids, and pouted: "I have been doing this matchmaker business here for not thirty years but twenty years, and the married couple is not one hundred and fifty but also eighty, and you can tell me which one is more suitable?" ”

"Aunt Zhang, you misunderstood, I didn't want to rob your business or anything, but I just thought that I could find more unmarried men and women, and every time I get married, I only need to give me ten yuan, no, five yuan, let's be a win-win situation, isn't it?"

"I'm running back and forth, but I'm going to divide the money with you when it's done, I'm afraid the little lady is looking for the wrong place, she should go to the hospital."

Qin Chu saw her attitude, she was in a hurry, but she couldn't confess to others, she had a matchmaker system, and all unmarried men and women knew whether it was suitable after she looked at it.

Qin Chu finally tried to fight for it again, but seeing that her attitude was always ignoring, he had to give up.

Out of the door of Zhang's house, Qin Chu glanced at the sun above his head, turned around and walked towards the pharmacy.

Seeing that it's time for lunch, it doesn't matter if she usually eats or not, now that she is a double body, she still has to eat three meals a day on time.

As soon as I entered the store, I saw Yang's mother sitting on a small stool next to the stove wiping her tears, and Ah Cheng on the side stood with an angry face.

"What's going on?" Qin Chu spoke.

Hearing her voice, Mother Yang quickly raised her sleeve and wiped her face, and Ah Cheng also tried to make her face look unwavering.

"No, it's nothing, I accidentally smoked my eyes when I was boiling the medicine just now, which doesn't make Ah Cheng worry about me."

Although Qin Chu was puzzled, he saw that the two of them looked like they were avoiding talking, so he had to change the topic and said: "Mother doesn't know, today I went to Buzhuang to take over a business, and the boss saw that I was doing a good job, and everyone else was three pennies, so he specially gave me two pennies."

Qin Chu tried his best to make his voice sound cheerful, and took out the luozi as he spoke.

"Chu Chu ......"

For a while, Mother Yang hesitated, not knowing how to speak.

"The bastard surnamed Zhou said that tonight is a two-day period, saying that he was kind enough to let us stay until tomorrow morning, but he didn't care about lunch and dinner."

Because of this matter, Rao is Ah Cheng has a good temper, and he can't help but wave his fist at Dr. Zhou. Seeing that he was tall and big, Dr. Zhou didn't dare to touch it, so he hurriedly dropped a sentence: "You can do it yourself."

The man was gone.

"Oh......" Qin Chu stepped forward with a smile, patted the young man who was already much taller than himself, and comforted: "It's not a big problem, now that the way to make money has been found, work hard at least we won't be hungry anymore, I'll go out to find a place to live in a while, don't worry, nothing is unpassable." ”

Seeing that his face was finally much better, he smiled and quipped: "He is a person of despicable character, we don't know him in general." After all, if a dog bites you, you can't give the dog a bite back."

Having said that, Qin Chu's heart was bottomless at all.

"My mother will go with you in a while."

"No, just find a place to live, mother, your legs are not good, but don't force it, I am very good with the child in my belly, and besides, moving more is also good for the body."

Qin Chu hurriedly refused. It's not that she's reckless, but among the three people, only her body is still better. If something goes wrong, things will only get worse.

"I'll go with you, girl." Ah Cheng pursed his lips. I felt guilty. If it weren't for him, they wouldn't be where they are now.

Qin Chu looked at the firmness and self-blame in the eyes of this half-grown child, so he had to reluctantly nodded: "Okay, but don't force yourself, tell me if you feel unwell."

Doctor Zhou had already put away all the food when they weren't paying attention, and he didn't eat lunch at noon, so Qin Chu took Ah Cheng out to find a house.

Mother Yang asked Qin Chu Luozi how to tie the knot, and when she saw Qin Chu and the two of them going out, she began to concentrate on her work.

Qin Chu took Ah Cheng to the back street first. In the past two days, she has walked the streets and alleys, and she also knows a little about the town.

Most of the backstreets are old houses, and the rent is definitely cheaper than in other places. While walking, I couldn't stop thinking about it, and now I only have two copper plates in my hand, and it is estimated that renting the cheapest house will cost dozens of copper plates a month.

Thinking about it, I suddenly regretted it, if I didn't pay the deposit, I guess I could talk to others about paying less deposit. I thought for a while, I paid all the deposits, and Luozi's work was probably going to be ruined.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, all because I had no money and couldn't do anything.

When they arrived at the back street, the two walked all the way down, but they didn't find that the family was rented. Qin Chu's concept is still stuck in a modern real estate agency, thinking of this, he discussed with Ah Cheng: "There are so many houses, and there is no sign for rent, why don't we go find a Chinese person?" ”

But he made up his mind that he had no money in his hand, so he had to use some other means. After waiting for someone to lead the way to see the house, she went back to talk to the owner. Although his actions are a little disgraceful, in extraordinary times, he can only be cheeky.

"Let's ......" Ah Cheng hesitated and wanted to say that he had no money in his hand, and it was in vain to see it, but finally changed his words: "It is estimated that ordinary people can't write if they want to rent, otherwise let's ask the people nearby, do you know?" ”

Although this idea is a bit stupid, there is no need to do something wrong, Qin Chu nodded in agreement.

As soon as he looked up, he saw that there were beads of sweat on his forehead, knowing that he had been walking with him for so long was already the limit, and he was willing to let him rest more, so he proposed: "Why don't you go to this house and ask first, you can wait for me here first."

Ah Cheng knew that he couldn't hold it up, otherwise it would backfire and Qin Chu would worry about him, so he sat down on a stone pier at the door as he said. watched Qin Chu push the door in.

The house that Qin Chu went to was a dilapidated mud house with only two rooms, and on the east side of the courtyard was a small room, which seemed to be a place reserved for a utility room.

In the yard, a woman is feeding chickens in an apron. Seeing her come in, she was stunned for a moment, and said puzzledly: "Who is the little lady looking for?" ”

"I want to ask my sister-in-law, do you know whose house is available for rent in the neighborhood?"

When the woman in the courtyard heard her ask, she looked people up and down, and saw that she was dressed ordinarily, and there were even a few patches on her elbows and knees, her eyes rolled, and she enthusiastically invited people into the house, and asked: "Sister-in-law, I have lived here for more than ten years, and I know who has everything clearly, I don't know what kind of house the little lady wants to find?" ”

Thinking of the only two pennies in his pocket, Qin Chu smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from my sister-in-law, my husband went to the front line to fight, and I was left with my mother-in-law and younger brother to flee here, and I was really a little nervous in my hands, just hoping to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, as for the rest, the cheaper the better."

Hearing that her husband was a soldier, the calculation on her sister-in-law's face was gone, and the tentative two asked, "I don't know what the little lady thinks of my family?" ”

The sister-in-law pointed to the small house of the concubine on the east side of the courtyard.

Qin Chu naturally took in all the changes in her expression, and said, "Just ask for a place with a safe identity, where can you ask for so much." I thought that I could take my family to my husband, but who knew that the border gate began to be uneven again, and the entanglement on the road was also robbed by thieves......"

Qin Chu kept his mouth shut and didn't ask about the rent, but just wiped his tears in a timely manner. Choked up.

"Hey! Whoever doesn't have to have a few cuts in his life, you're still so young, why don't you continue to do this day." The eldest sister-in-law comforted her and continued to speak: "My husband's surname is Chen, you can just call me Sister-in-law Chen." I can't hold much in this warehouse, I can barely live in it, I see that you are also a real person, my sister-in-law doesn't want much, you give my sister-in-law thirty copper plates a month, what do you think? ”

Thirty copper plates, that is, one copper plate a day. She barely accepted the price. Although the place is not as good as it could be, there is no other way to do it today. I can only find a place to settle down as soon as possible, and then find another way out.

After agreeing with Chen's sister-in-law, give two days of room money first, Qin Chu went out to call Ah Cheng, and the two of them cleaned up the warehouse simply, because the house was too old, it was not for living, the house was leaking everywhere, not to mention the stove, and there was not even a bed.

Everything needs to be cleaned up again, one of them is injured, the other is pregnant, and neither of them can do the hard work. Fortunately, Sister-in-law Chen was quite kind, and brought a few wooden planks from her house, and Ah Cheng found a few bricks and simply built a small bed.

Everything was cleaned up and looked over, Ah Cheng stayed to build the stove, and Qin Chu went back to pick up Mother Yang.

"Found a place so quickly?" Mother Yang put down the rope in her hand and asked happily.

"Hmm". Qin Chu glanced at Doctor Zhou, who didn't know when he came back, and saw that although he was pretending to be busy, his ears were sticking up to this side, and he didn't want to let him do what he wanted, so he deliberately didn't explain the matter in detail, and only started to pack up his things with Mother Yang.
