Chapter 93
"Will this be too troublesome?" Qiu Jingming was a little hesitant, but also a little moved. After all, Tang Ning and the others were acquaintances, and their character was trustworthy. His grandfather and sister lived here and he was relieved to go out to earn money, but the favor he owed was like this. It's big.

"No trouble!" Tang Zheng answered for Jiang Shi, and said to Qiu Jingming, "There are two gardens in Erjin Yard, men and women are separated, and they can accommodate quite a few people. Let me take you to have a look, and store your luggage by the way."

In this way, Qiu Jingming was enthusiastically taken to the backyard by Tang Zheng. Tang Zheng meant to give the old man Qiu and Qiu Jingming a room, but Qiu Jingming insisted on only one room. Qiu Changsheng could only live in one room by himself in the girls' courtyard. Jingming was a little worried.

Tang Rou, who had never had any sense of presence, suddenly said: "Let Nizi and Changsheng live in the same room, Nizi is getting older, it's time for her to sleep by herself, and the two children can take care of each other when they are together, when the time comes, hang a piece of wood in the room Skewer, if you have something to do, pull hard, I'm next door, I can hear you."

"Thank you!" Qiu Jingming bowed again solemnly.

Since the three of Qiu's family only lived in two rooms, which should be one and a half rooms, Tangning charged them a nominal one hundred cash a month.

No one else had any objections, Tangning asked them to pay a little less rent for the extra Wen, and everyone was happy.

Qiu Jingming deserves to be a child of the poor who has been in charge of the family for a long time. He is obviously younger than Tang Zheng, but he is much more prudent in his work. As soon as he moved in and settled down, he immediately started looking for a job. Brandishing the knife, he had no choice but to turn around to take care of the animals, but the animals were all fed and didn't need his help, and he couldn't find any work after turning around.

Tangning guessed what he was thinking, stopped him on the road, leaned against the wall and said lazily, "You guys have paid the rent for staying here, just treat yourself as staying in a hotel, don't feel embarrassed, Da Zhuang owes you money My money, work to pay off debts, you are different!"

Qiu Jingming couldn't help laughing, but followed Tangning's wishes and didn't make any further excuses.

The two of them entered the shop in the front yard one after the other. Tangning put her arms around her chest and said, "I've already sent her the medicine for longevity, and her room has been properly furnished. Nizi is very curious right now, coming in and out. , I will call someone if something happens, don't worry."

Qiu Jingming wanted to thank him again, but Tangning stepped up and left. He was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of a smile on his cold face.

It has been snowing for several days in a row. Seeing that the Spring Festival is coming, there is no tendency to stop. Tangning goes out to set up a stall every morning. The closer to the root of the year, the better the business. Even if a piece of silk soap costs cash, there is still a problem Few people grit their teeth and buy it. The Spring Festival only comes once a year. How can we welcome the new year with a new look if we don’t tidy up well?
Now her silk soap is considered to be a little famous, and some people came to her specifically to ask for goods, but she refused them all, but she did wholesale some to Qiu Jingming.

He is a peddler, and his job is to do business in the streets and alleys. Tangning can drag him back from outside to bring things back, and naturally he will give him some benefits. She sells a piece of silk soap for Wen for Qiu Jingming, and Qiu Jingming for Wen Well, as long as he sells it for two yuan, his rent for this month will be settled. Since Qiu Changsheng and the old man Qiu live here, Tangning will also confiscate his deposit, and will settle the bill when Qiu Jingming comes back after selling the goods.

Qiu Jingming also wanted to take advantage of this time to make more money, so he simply bought some more silk soap from Tangning and went to the county town in a donkey cart. It took two or three days to go back and forth. Two silver coins is much better than running around town every day.

Everyone can see his hard work. The Jiang family, the Li family, and the Zhou family all have sons and daughters. Seeing him so difficult, they naturally feel compassion. Every time Qiu Changsheng comes back, Jiang and the others will give him Get some hot food on hand.

The Huang family now makes tofu, and Zhou and his son prepare it at home. Huang Desheng picks it out and sells it, and brings back some leftovers every day. Tangning loves it, so she makes it directly. So Qiu Jingming can always have a bite of tender tofu when he comes back from outside. Drink a bowl of hot soy milk.

After a few days, my complexion got better.

The old man Qiu saw it and thanked Tangning and the others from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to do something for them, but there was no work he could do at home, so he simply sat down and knit with everyone. He didn't want money, and he would not accept anything. .

The Jiang family had no choice but to hand over the old man Qiu's share to Qiu Jingming.

Qiu Jingming naturally knew what his grandfather was thinking, and said with Jiang's smile, "Auntie, don't give me this money. Remember, if it's not enough for the rent, you can tell me again, okay?"

"This is not allowed! Your grandfather earns more than the rent you pay in a month!" Jiang strongly disagreed.

Qiu Jingming smiled helplessly, "Auntie, why don't you keep the accounts, how about the extra food expenses for my grandfather and sister? It's not convenient for them to fire by themselves now, and I'm running outside all day long. It's easier for you to eat."

"This." Jiang Shi hesitated. She couldn't refuse Qiu Jingming's request. After all, it was just a matter of convenience, and their food was only average. The extra money must be enough, but this is not a good deal.

Before Jiang could figure it out, Qiu Jingming said, "Then it's settled, thank you, auntie!"

Until Qiu Jingming returned to the house, Jiang couldn't figure out the comparison.

During this period of time, Tangning and Qiu Jingming became more and more out of home. The two often went out before dawn and came back when it was getting dark. Tangning was a bit better, not staying out at night. Qiu Jingming was different. From the very beginning I come back once every two or three days, and only come back five or six days later.

When I came back, I only stayed for one night, and left with a full load of goods the next day.

Tang Ning thought that if Qiu Jingming didn't need her silk soap, she might be able to wander outside for ten days and a half months before coming back. Naturally, he made a lot of money by working so hard.

Tangning kept a record of how much money Qiu Jingming took from her, from ten to twenty yuan at the beginning, to fifty or sixty yuan at a time now, but a few times, Qiu Jingming had already given her After selling more than a hundred pieces of silk soap, smooth silk soap, he should have earned five or six taels of silver this month, plus other goods.

Now she finally understands how Qiu Jingming took his grandfather and sister around to seek medical treatment by himself. The young man does have some skills, which she admires.

The two took advantage of the years ago to make a fortune, and didn't stop until the end of the year.

Tangning put her mind at home only to realize that there were problems everywhere in the house. She asked Jiang, "Mother, are we not celebrating the new year?"

"Come on!" With a gentle smile on his face, Jiang's eyes seemed to be broken into the sea of ​​stars, and he said expectantly: "This moonlight we have saved a lot of copper coins just by weaving. I, Auntie Wei, Auntie Zhou and you Your second uncle, Grandpa Qiu discussed it, we will live together this year, each family will pay Wen, and we will eat something good too."
