Mother Li was happy to hear that her child's household registration could be obtained and he could still study in the capital. She was happy and said she wanted to stay here. Her daughter was already married and had no children yet, so there was no point in staying in Chuncheng.

Cheng Qiao has to take care of four children by herself and has to go to school, so she will definitely not be able to spare the time, so she should stay and help, even if it is to pick up the children and cook a meal, but Cheng Qiao and Li Huan do not agree, and Chuncheng still has The grocery store.

Moreover, Cheng Qiao always felt that this grocery store had to be opened, otherwise she didn’t know what would happen. Anyway, she felt uneasy if the store was closed.

Mother Li was a little disappointed when she saw that her son and daughter-in-law disagreed, but when she thought about what Li Huan said about opening a shop, she seemed to understand that living in Beijing or Chuncheng would cost a lot of money.

Her savings are limited, and she has no income after leaving the village. Now she also needs her son and wife to support her, but Huanzai only gets a monthly subsidy of 10 yuan, which is enough for her to eat and drink alone.

Moreover, if Huan Zai quits being the village chief next year, he will not even have that salary. Then their whole family will have to rely on their daughter-in-law. How can this be done? Cheng Qiao will be exhausted, and Li's mother suddenly feels the need to open a shop to make money.

Thinking that she could make money for her son and wife, Li's mother became happy again. She secretly made up her mind to earn at least 50 yuan a month and send 40 yuan to Cheng Qiao every month. There were four children there.

Cheng Qiao went to the kitchen and walked around. The pot was cold and the stove was cold. He couldn't help but shake his head. A man's life is rough, and he lived alone, and even more so.

She wanted to go out to buy vegetables, rice and meat. Anyway, she had to buy all the food, drinks and food for the big family. Li Huan quickly followed and after asking where the market was, the two of them went out on their bicycles.

Ye Jun originally wanted to give the money and tickets to Cheng Qiao and the others. This was the capital and the tickets from his hometown could not be used, but thinking of Cheng Qiao's ability, he stopped talking.

The two of them went to the vegetable market for a walk. They still needed tickets, but they didn't have tickets from the capital, so they had to buy some vegetables that didn't cost tickets.

After finding a hidden place, chicken, duck, and fish appeared, along with ten kilograms of rice, a large jar of oil, and some snacks and pastries.

Seeing the two people entering the door with large and small bags, Ye Jun smiled. It was indeed so.

"This is a briquette card, limited supply."

Ye Jun handed over all the food, briquettes, cards and other things at home to Cheng Qiao. Since someone was in charge of the family, he became the hands-off shopkeeper.

Cheng Qiao looked at the surprisingly small supply and couldn't help but shake his head. There were very few houses in the capital with fire pits, and these coals were used for cooking.

"I know where to get coal. It's late today. I'll get it tomorrow."

Cheng Qiao patted her chest confidently. It was cold in the capital, but it was much better than at home. Moreover, the bed here was just a bed, unlike sleeping on a kang at home. It was extremely warm at night.

"Mom, grandma, were you cold last night?"

Although Cheng Qiao used Ye Jun's name to bring out a lot of bedding, people who are used to sleeping on the fire bed will always be afraid of the cold. As expected, both of them nodded and felt chilly, as if there was wind blowing into the quilt.

"Then put a briquette stove in the room tonight and boil water."

Mother Li nodded, that was all she could do, since they wouldn't be able to stay for more than a few days before leaving anyway.

The next day was the New Year's Eve. Cheng Qiao and Li Huan went out once and brought back a large amount of coal, which almost filled the two empty houses in the yard.

"What a coincidence. I brought so much coal back and I don't have a kang at home. Will it be a waste?"

Cheng Qiao shook his head. It was definitely too late to build a fire bed now. He would build a fire bed after my mother and the others left. First, a few children could use it, and secondly, next year, my mother and the others would not have to be cold when they came.

The ladies started to work in the kitchen, washing and cooking, and soon they had prepared more than a dozen dishes, a large pot of rice, and dozens of steamed buns.

There is no way, there are more than a dozen people, it will be bad if there are so many people and they are not full, especially Qin Guoqing and Li Huan, they are big eaters.

After lunch, Cheng Qiao and Li Huan went out again, and this time they brought back more things. Lele, Li's mother, and Ye Jun were already used to it, but Qin Guoqing admired him in his heart. Brother Huan is so amazing, even the capital city. Can get good stuff.

Li's mother was sitting in her west wing, feeling a little worried. Grandma seemed to be shaking her head and sighing. Cheng Qiao didn't understand what was going on. Li Huan smiled. Every year on New Year's Eve, she would secretly pay homage to her ancestors.

Cheng Qiao smiled, her courtyard house should also belong to the Li family, so she should go over there to pay homage to her, and also pay homage to her mother.

Li Huan's eyes were shining brightly, and he hurriedly went to find Cheng Liguo. The three of them went out on bicycles again. Cheng Liguo came to Zhao Min's courtyard excitedly, stroking the incomplete door knocker, feeling miserable.

Li Huan saw that Cheng Liguo's face was not good, so he quickly went up to help him. This father-in-law is really good. His wife has been dead for more than ten years, and he still insists on keeping his integrity. This love is too firm.

When I opened the door, I found that the yard was no longer overgrown with weeds as it had been before. Instead, it was clean. Except for the golden leaves swept down by the autumn wind, there was no garbage at all.

"Qiao, are you coming?"

Cheng Qiao shook his head: "Uncle Liang should be here to clean."

"Liang Qingya, why is this guy here?"

Cheng Liguo felt a little uncomfortable. Zhao Min had been dead for so many years and his ghost was still lingering. Now he was pestering his daughter to let him see this guy or he would beat him to death.

Li Huan did not notice the change in Cheng Liguo's expression, but marveled at how different this courtyard was. Ye Jun's courtyard was large, but deserted and simple.

But Cheng Qiao's courtyard house is small and exquisite, revealing the original owner's taste and meticulousness in every aspect. When he saw the huge bed in the master bedroom, he gasped.

"What a coincidence, this..."

"Uncle Liang saved it with his own efforts. Besides, this place is located in the suburbs, so it can still be preserved to this day."

"Uncle Liang is pretty good. Let's meet him sometime."

"Fuck you, you shameless guy."

Cheng Liguo suddenly became furious. Zhao Min had told him about this bed and even drew a picture for him to see. Unfortunately, it was too big and too luxurious. If anyone saw it, the skin would peel off.

Li Huan was startled and suddenly understood Liang Qingya's identity. He couldn't help but light a candle for Liang Qingya, whom he had never met before. If he also had a love rival, Cheng Liguo would probably be furious.

Thinking of this, she rubbed Cheng Qiao's waist tightly, worried that she would disappear if she let go. Cheng Qiao rolled her eyes at Li Huan, how could she think so much.

Cheng Qiao placed the table in the middle of the reception room, prepared incense, candles and other items, and of course some food. They planned to worship their ancestors tonight.

Ye Jun also brought Li's mother and the others. When Li Le saw such a beautiful courtyard, he would be lying if he said he was not envious, but Qin Guoqing tightened her hand:

"When I upgrade, I will be assigned an independent yard, and we will arrange it this way."

As the sky darkened, Cheng Qiao turned on all the lights in the courtyard, and then began to worship his ancestors, first to Zhao Min. After all, this was the property left by Zhao Min.
