After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

987 Finding a Place to Stay

“I’ll go get it for you now. It’s just that… I have something to discuss with you. Can the rent next month be more than this month?” the landlord whispered.

Su Liang glared at the landlord. With that look, the landlord could almost see his own head falling to the ground.

“What did you say? Say that again? Did I hear wrongly just now?” Su Liang questioned.

The landlord’s back was instantly drenched in cold sweat. The look in Su Liang’s eyes made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave and heard the whisper of the devil. If he said anything to make Su Liang unhappy, he would probably not be able to survive the day.

“Nothing! I didn’t say anything! I’ll replenish the things in the kitchen and bring you the coal!” the landlord said agitatedly.

Su Liang nodded in satisfaction and returned to Qiao Yu’s room. Qiao Yu had thought that Su Yang’s forceful methods were already very impressive, but she did not expect Su Liang to be able to deal with the landlord with just a few words. From now on, she could just take whatever she wanted and did not need to be bullied by the landlord anymore.

Seeing that Qiao Yu had been staring at him, Su Liang asked, “Why are you looking at me? Do I have flowers on my face?”

“I’m not looking at you! I’m just staring into space! Who’s looking at you!” Qiao Yu said.

“What a shy young lady. Hurry up and go to the kitchen to cook! Cook something nice today!” Su Liang shouted at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu was woken up by Su Liang so early in the morning and had not gone to the market to buy groceries yet. Seeing that it was Su Liang who had paid for the food and helped her deal with the landlord, she did not want to be too calculative. As long as she had meat to eat, she did not care who gave it to her.

Qiao Yu took the landlord’s bamboo basket and went out. Although Su Liang was alone in the room, she was not worried about what he could do. There was nothing but junk and clothes in that room. Everything valuable was with her. It did not matter even if he emptied out the entire room. Qiao Yu knew where Su Liang’s house was. At most, she would force herself into their house.

Qiao Yu hummed a tune happily as she walked along the road. As she walked, she saw Li Gui coming from an intersection and riding the three-wheeled vehicle with great effort. This time, she really saw it clearly. It was indeed Li Gui and the back of the vehicle was filled with popcorn.

Qiao Yu followed Li Gui carefully all the way to the place where Li Gui and Zhao Fei often met up and witnessed the secretive transaction between them. Zhao Fei gave Li Gui a large sum of money and the two of them parted ways after a short conversation. Li Gui then rode home in a relaxed and happy manner.

Zhao Fei also had an improvised three-wheeled vehicle by now. He would meet up with Li Gui every morning to pick up the goods and they would exchange vehicles. They could then proceed to do their own things after that and there was no need to come back to meet up at night. It was a very convenient arrangement.

Recently, he had been thinking of ways to get a car and spend some money to get a driver’s license. With a car, it would be even easier to deliver the goods. A car could carry a lot of things and was much faster. He just needed to be in charge of delivering the goods to his brothers. Even earning the differential between the cost price and the selling price was already a sizable income. This way, he would have a much easier time.

Qiao Yu completely forgot about buying groceries and she followed Li Gui to a big house. It was not until she saw with her own eyes that Li Gui went in for a long time and did not come out did she confirm that she had found Li Gui’s residence. Seeing that there was no one around, Qiao Yu mustered her courage and went to Qiao Mei’s main door to take a look. She could vaguely hear the laughter of the four children coming from inside.

Even if Qiao Yu had mistaken someone else for Li Gui, she definitely would not be mistaken about these four children;s voices. She often saw these children playing at the entrance of the village. As time passed, the sound of their laughter had become deeply ingrained in her mind.

Qiao Yu walked one round outside the house. It was surrounded by high walls that were built with green bricks and it took her more than half an hour to walk one full round. It showed how big the courtyard house was. She wondered why Qiao Mei could live in such a nice house while she could only languish in that dilapidated room.

Qiao Yu stood outside the door and stared at it for a long time. She only left in a hurry when someone came out of the courtyard.

Xia He looked at the road intersection in confusion. Did something flash past just now? Was she seeing things?
