As the middleman returned, he entered the house and overheard a conversation between two people near the back rooms.
"...Why did you advise third Aunt to buy another courtyard? This one looks good, and third Aunt likes it," Ying Xi said.
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Naturally, it's beneficial for me. If the price here can't be lowered, I'll have Third Aunt buy the courtyard I introduced. Once that courtyard is sold, I'll get my share of the money. When the middleman returns, you help me persuade third Aunt."
"Alright."
The middleman heard this and his eyebrows jumped. He quickly lowered his footsteps and hurried inside to find Liang Shi.
As soon as he left, Ying Xi asked, "Miss, that middleman left. Is it really effective to say it like that?"
"Hmm, let's wait here for good news."
Sure enough, not long after, Liang Shi came over with joy. "Ah Yu, I can buy the house for 255 taels."
Shu Yu and Ying Xi exchanged a glance. It seemed that it was the lowest price. In any case, they had to let the middleman earn some money, right?
With the price settled, Liang Shi promptly paid the silver.
The middleman brought the owner over, and they signed the deed first. When Lu Sanzhu finished work and returned, they would transfer the house. Then, the house would officially belong to the Lu family's third branch.
Relieved, Liang Shi felt so happy that she almost cried.
The house keys were already handed over to Liang Shi, and she carefully put them away.
The group of people happily left and headed back to Liang Shi's rental house.
Little did they know that at the rental house, Lu Dasong and Li Shi were already waiting for them.
Li Shi wanted to see the house the third branch was buying, but she didn't know the address.
Fortunately, the door of the third branch's house was open, and Lu Sixing was helping to look after Bao Ya. She also welcomed the rare guests, Lu Dasong and his wife.
When Liang Shi happily entered with the deed and keys, she saw Li Shi's stern face.
Liang Shi wasn't afraid of her and even proudly presented the deed, saying, "Our family finally has a big house, a big house in the county."
She then hugged Bao Ya and said, "My dear daughter, when you're a bit older, Mother will set aside a separate room just for you. You can decorate it however you like. Are you happy?"
Bao Ya was happy, but she was happy to see Shu Yu. She struggled out of Liang Shi's arms and ran to Shu Yu, hugging her leg and looking up with her little head, saying, "Sister, candy."
This was a typical example of seeking help from someone in power.
Shu Yu laughed and took out two candies from her purse. She put one in Bao Ya's mouth and gave the other one for her to give to Xiao Zhen.
Bao Ya ate the candy with narrowed eyes and went to play with Xiao Zhen.
Li Shi watched this scene and then looked at her daughter and son beside her. Her heart ached again.
Comparing other people's children to her own, why were her children so foolish?
Lu Dasong wanted to ask about the house and called Er Niu over to ask how it looked.
Lu Sixing asked Shu Yu to help take care of the children while she went to the kitchen to prepare some food. "I already made the noodles earlier. We're just waiting for you to come back and cook them."
Liang Shi was in a good mood today and didn't mind having so many people in her home for dinner.
Although there was an annoying sister-in-law, she would give her a small bowl of noodles for the sake of the children.
She rolled up her sleeves and said, "Fourth sister, you watch the children. Don't let Ah Yu get tired. As for the noodles, I'll take care of them." She paused and looked at Li Shi. "Sister-in-law, come and help me."
