While he was talking, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

"Second aunt, are you at home?"

Zhou Cheng and Wu Xiuying looked at the door together and saw Wu Qin and his wife walking in with a smile.

"Second aunt, Shanshan."

"Ouch, Aqin and Applejack are here, come in, come in." Wu Xiuying looked at them with surprise and joy.

Greeted Wu Qin and his wife into the house to talk.

Zhou Cheng also followed into the house and helped pour tea.

Gu Beiwang hugged Xiao Yu'er upstairs to sleep, and just walked down, and was not surprised to see Wu Qin and his wife, and showed a polite smile, "My cousin and brother-in-law are here." ”

"Cousin-in-law."

Gu Beiwang sat down beside Zhou Cheng, the guests at home, whether they are familiar with it or not, sit down to accompany the guests, this is the basic courtesy.

Wu Xiuying smiled: "I said that you didn't come over earlier, when did you leave Rongcheng?" Busy right now? ”

Wu Qin looked at her husband, smiled and nodded with Wu Xiuying, "I said Ajie to let him come early, it's not good too late, I just didn't expect some problems in the store, it's time to get it right, we came here yesterday, and I want to come to the second aunt's house to sit down, speaking of which, Ajie hasn't come to your house yet, so I want to bring him over to recognize the door." ”

"I see." Wu Xiuying nodded and asked with concern, "There is nothing wrong with the store, right?" ”

"There is a little problem, a few guests in the store are more picky, for a while there is no water heater in the store, and for a while the quilt in the store is not soft enough, because the new store, it is the time to accumulate word of mouth, we try to communicate with the guests, solve the problems they ask, fortunately, those guests are also reasonable, understand that our hotel is small, I didn't expect to solve the guest's aftermath, what security team came, our store has only been open for a month, or the first time I met them, I have heard of it before, and there are some preparations, I just didn't expect this money, but I still wanted a lot, and my uncle said that there was no way to do it, and we didn't have any acquaintances in it, so we could only grit our teeth and give it...... So it was late, and we didn't know when my cousin and brother-in-law would return to the army, so we thought about coming over early to have a look. Wu Qin's husband replied.

Zhou Zhengming asked, "How much does that cost?" ”

Wu Qin was a little distracted, "Two hundred, it's worth a month's salary, it's really the same as robbing......"

"Aqin." Qiao Jiesheng called Wu Qin lightly, "This is also a matter of no choice, we just came over to do business."

He is talking about the collection of protection money, which will be the difference between the more and the less money in the shops in a certain area.

Now Wu Qin and his wife are talking about this, obviously quite a lot.

"This ......" Wu Xiuying glanced at Zhou Zhengming, "Old Zhou, why is this so much?" ”

Zhou Zhengming said: "It is estimated that they are outsiders, and it has not been long since it opened......

"Then ......" Wu Xiuying still wanted to say something, but when she thought about it, she didn't have any way, and she didn't have any connections, so she couldn't help anything.

It was Wu Qin's husband who diverted the topic.

Their hotel is in the east of the city, half an hour's drive away.

"And where do you live now?" Wu Xiuying then asked.

A few days ago, I heard Wu Qin say that they had just come over and didn't know much about the situation here, so they lived in a hotel first, but I don't know if they live in a hotel now.

Wu Qin said: "Stay in the hotel for the time being, and when we find a house, we will move again." ”

"I also want my uncle and aunt to help us keep an eye on the house." Wu Qin's husband continued Wu Qin's words.

Wu Xiuying asked, "Then do you plan to buy or rent?" ”

Wu Qin glanced at her husband and asked, "Ajie, let's buy a house, anyway, we will develop here in the future, if you rent a house, you will not be comfortable, and you have to ask the landlord if you put a nail on the wall at home." ”

At the beginning, she also told her mother's family that she was going to buy a house in Rongcheng, but her mother-in-law's side said that she would talk about it later, and now when she heard Wu Xiuying's question, she still wanted to coax her husband to buy the house, otherwise, everyone thought she would marry a poor bastard who couldn't even afford a house.

But her husband said in front of the second aunt's family: "We plan to rent a house first, although there is a hotel and we can live, but after all, it is not our own, and my second uncle and uncle have a share, they don't live in a hotel, we don't want to live there for a long time, or come out to find a house safely, now we have just opened a store, there are still many places that need funds, so we will not consider buying a house first, and we will talk about it later." ”

Wu Qin exhaled in disappointment when she heard him like this, and then glanced at Zhou Cheng a little uncomfortably, remembered something, and asked Wu Xiuying, "Second aunt, do you still have a house for rent?" ”

Wu Xiuying nodded.

"Then why don't you rent it to us?" Wu Qin asked again.

Wu Xiuying glanced at Zhou Zhengming, and was embarrassed: "Xiaoqin, the house was demarcated last year, and no one was allowed to live in it in the first two months, and it was ready to be demolished." ”

It belongs to the old city, but it is close to the city center, Rongcheng has developed very fast in the past two years, and the old house is planned to be demolished.

Zhou Zhengming's house has also signed a demolition contract, and the compensation is about to arrive.

"Ouch, this land has been requisitioned?" Wu Qin was surprised, "How much is this compensation?" I heard that your house is very old. ”

Wu Xiuying said the amount and said with a smile: "When we bought it, we emptied our family funds and borrowed some from friends before we bought it. ”

Wu Qin glanced at Zhou Cheng again and smacked his tongue, "Cousin, you are really lucky, this money is already a lot, I said why didn't grandpa stay in Rongcheng at that time?" Otherwise, we would have a house now. ”

Wu Xiuying glanced at her, "We have a lot of family, how can we live in a house with a big tofu block?" Grandpa can't let everyone sleep on the street, right? Now our family's life is much better than before, grandpa has brought me and your father and aunt up peacefully, and it is already very capable of leaving the field. ”

Wu Qin listened a little sneering.

In the evening, Wu Qin and his wife stayed for dinner.

At the dinner table, Zhou Zhengming took the wine out and said that the three men had a drink or something.

Wu Qin said with a smile: "I want to have a drink with my uncle and cousin-in-law, and I will ask them to take care of me in the future, we don't have any acquaintances in Rongcheng." ”

Zhou Cheng glanced at his two men, and said with a smile to Zhou Zhengming: "Dad, the wine is to be drunk, who made us happy today, but let's drink a little less." ”

Zhou Zhengming responded with a smile.

Wu Qin said: "Cousin, my uncle is also happy, in fact, it's okay to drink a little more of this wine, anyway, I'll go to bed later, and I can sleep well." ”

Zhou Cheng smiled and didn't refute.
