Lin Xiaoman watched the whole process and thought: It seems that people like the county government have the same bias.

At the same time, I am also curious about Xu Qiuliang's identity. Those who love him and respect him regard him as their master, while those who blame him and blame him also wish he died. Could it be that these people were exiled because of his involvement?

"Uncle Peng, just send the chicken to my house. I will make hot pot chicken for you tonight."

"Hey, thank you so much, little shopkeeper, I'll let someone buy it right now."

After saying that, Peng Guancha went to ask people to buy chickens.

Lin Xiaoman was about to turn around and go home. Unexpectedly, a girl stood behind her. As soon as she turned around, the girl was knocked back two steps and fell to the ground. Lin Xiaoman only staggered.

The girl did not get up immediately after falling. Instead, she covered her arm that was lying on the ground, and tears fell down.

Lin Xiaoman hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Where are you injured? Do you want to see the doctor?"

The girl who was originally in tears suddenly changed her face and asked sternly: "Don't you have eyes? Do you think you bumped into me on purpose?"

Lin Xiaoman was wronged. She really didn’t have eyes on the back of her head. How could she know there was someone standing behind her? Even if it was wrong to bump into someone, the girl standing silently behind her was even more wrong, right?

Do you really think she is a soft persimmon?

Lin Xiaoman raised his eyebrows sharply, stood up straight and asked: "I don't have eyes on the back of my head, so those two holes on your nose are just for decoration? The bird is standing quietly behind me, who knows if you want to steal my things?"

The girl was angered by Lin Xiaoman's words, "I belong to the Xu family..."

Halfway through his words, he thought that he was no longer the young lady of the Xu family, so he blurred out the word 'miss' and continued: "Stealing something from a poor girl from the countryside? If you tell me, you will laugh to death."

Lin Xiaoman sneered, "Is it Miss Xu? Then please tell Miss Xu, why are you standing quietly behind me? What do you want to do?"

Miss Xu looked embarrassed and couldn't speak.

Peng Guancha walked not far away, and when he heard the voice, he turned back and scolded him with a cold face, "If you don't build a house there properly, why are you going to this wasteland? Is it because you feel that the work of building a house is too tiring, and you want to open up wasteland instead?"

?"

Miss Xu was so frightened that she shook her head quickly, "No, no, I heard someone said that my father and his second uncle got into a fight and were whipped. I came over to take a look."

Peng Guancha snorted angrily: "I can't die! If you care about your father, just stay and open up wasteland together."

Miss Xu waved her hands in a nonchalant manner, "No, no, I'll go back and repair the house."

After saying that, he turned around and ran back, running faster than a rabbit. He didn't look injured at all.

Peng Guancha shook his head and said to Lin Xiaoman: "This is Xu Yuanru, the third daughter of the Xu family. Mr. Xu's mother is a concubine. When Mr. Xu was an official, the Xu family was protected by him. Even Mr. Xu's mother

They were all treated as equal wives. Now that Mr. Xu has been convicted and the family has been implicated, the Xu family members hate him to death. The official who escorted them here said that if his brothers had not protected him along the way, Mr. Xu would have been killed several times.

I was almost killed by those people who were my direct descendants."

Lin Xiaoman pouted: "Who are these people?"

In her opinion, since Xu Qiuliang got rich in the first place, she should be aware of being implicated by Xu Qiuliang. How can there be good things when you are enjoying good things, but adding insult to injury when you are in trouble?

Although she had only met Xu Yuanru once, her impression of Xu Yuanru was extremely bad at this time.

Peng Guancha deeply agreed, "Little shopkeeper, please be more careful in the future, there are no good people in the Xu family's branch."

When I got home, I saw two people selling hazelnuts in the yard. When I asked, I found out they were two brothers from the next village. I heard that hazelnuts were harvested here, so I pushed a cart to deliver them.

Lin Xiaoman said: "We only harvest hazelnuts that are good; we don't harvest those that are not ripe or those with insect eyes."

"I know that the hazelnuts have been selected before they are delivered."

Lin Xiaoman grabbed a handful. They were plump in size and no insect eyes were visible. They looked pretty good.

I went to get a basin of water and poured some of the hazelnuts in the bag into the basin. Except for a few hazelnuts floating on top, the rest of the hazelnuts sank to the bottom. It can be seen that most of the hazelnuts are ripe.

After looking at several bags, they were all about the same, so I didn’t go through the water one by one.

The two parties negotiated a price, fifty cents for a bucket of hazelnuts with the skin removed. Lin Erhu weighed them with a grain weighing bucket and put them into a basket. Lin Xiaoman carried them into the house and poured them into a big pot to stir-fry.

A cart of hazelnuts totaled more than 600 yuan. The two people took a bunch of money and left happily. Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu were also happily waiting to transport the hazelnuts to sell for money.

After collecting the hazelnuts, Lin Erhu went over there and squatted waiting for the call.

The official who went to the village to buy chickens brought two chickens. Lin Xiaoman killed them and made them into hot pot chickens. They put them in jars and sent them to the wasteland, where they could cook them before eating.

In addition to the two chickens they sent, Lin Xiaoman also brought two chopped and washed woks, which they cooked in the pot when eating.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Aunt Qi called and said that she had rented a house, not far from the warehouse, and asked them to come and take a look.

The siblings changed their clothes and ran to the front of the warehouse. Aunt Qi was standing there waving to them, "Xiaoman and Erhu are not far in front. They have two bedrooms and more than sixty square meters. You two can live there."

It's enough. There's just no decoration. The rent is not expensive. It's five hundred a month. If you want to buy it, I asked the landlord and the full payment is one hundred and eighty thousand. If you don't have enough money on hand, Aunt Liu can lend it first.

You guys, I’ll pay you back when you make money later.”

Lin Xiaoman calculated their savings and found that they couldn't afford it, and it didn't seem cost-effective to buy a house. It cost 180,000 yuan, and they could rent it for thirty years. If they bought a house, who knows whether the house will still be there thirty years later.<

/p>

"Aunt Qi, if we don't want to buy a house, we will rent it first."

Aunt Qi also agreed, "Okay, the landlord is on the way and will take you to see the house later."

The landlord rushed over ten minutes later and took the three of them to see the house.

This is a man in his forties, also named Lin.

While walking towards the house, he introduced the situation of the house: "The house was allocated by my parents in the textile factory back then. People in the city called it the Textile Community. They are older now, so I took it over to take care of them. The house will be idle even if it is idle."

, you can rent or sell it. The community is full of retired employees from textile factories. Although it is not a closed community, the residents are warm-hearted. You don’t have to worry about bad people living there. There is no elevator on the fifth floor, so you have to work hard every day.

Some climb the stairs. You don’t have to worry about the heating bill. My parents are retired employees, and the factory will reimburse the heating bill, so you don’t have to spend your own money."

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu don't care about climbing stairs. They climb mountains as if they are playing, even on the fifth floor.

What is this heating bill? What does it mean to report a heating bill? But they understand it without spending money, which is great!

As we talked, we arrived at the community in less than ten minutes.

Different from the high-end community where Grandma Liu and the others live, this is an old community with houses over thirty years old, with a maximum of eight floors, no elevator, and no property security.
