Chapter 72: The Legend of Wulin Zhu Wushuang 5
This way of making money was gone, and later Zhu Wushuang found another way to make money.
She performed on the streets with her erhu and earned some money while practicing.
Occasionally, when there are weddings or funerals, I will recommend myself.
Gradually, her erhu playing became better and better.
Given the plaintive sound of the erhu, she earns more from funerals.
Often when mourners hear the sound of the erhu, they can't help but think of sad things, and cry even more passionately. After the ceremony, the host family will be very willing to give them more money.
She earned more than one hundred taels of silver in a year. With the reward she had received from the government, she had three hundred-tael silver notes and more than twenty taels of loose change.
The total amount of money I earned this year was much more than the total monthly salary I earned in all those years at Sunflower Party.
Zhu Wushuang patted the banknotes on his chest with satisfaction, and sighed that he still needed to find a few more part-time jobs, otherwise where would he get so much extra money!
In the few months since leaving the Sunflower Sect, Zhu Wushuang has been running around, having no fixed place to live, and he is really tired.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching soon, she also needs to find a place to stay.
Which place should I choose?
She could not go back to the Kuihua Sect. Ever since she left the Sect, she heard that the Kuihua Sect’s headquarters had been taken back by the local government. Zhu Wushuang had no idea what it was used for.
After thinking about it, Zhu Wushuang decided to go to Qixia Town, not only because it was where many stories happened, but also because he could meet acquaintances there. After a year or so, Bai Zhantang would go there.
With the care of my senior brothers, I don't have to fight alone when encountering problems.
After deciding to go to Qixia Town, Zhu Wushuang planned the next route.
Following the planned route, she arrived at Qixia Town at the end of November.
The small town of Qixia is very lively, with people coming and going on the streets, full of the breath of life.
Zhu Wushuang stood on the street, watching the people passing by, and couldn't help but sigh that he had come to the right place.
She asked along the way and arrived at the Shangru Inn, where there was a sour scholar-owner who was reading a book behind the counter with his eyes narrowed and his head shaking.
This made Zhu Wushuang couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Do you have to squint and shake your head when you read? Doesn't your neck hurt?"
After hearing Zhu Wushuang's words, Lu Qinghou noticed that there was a living person standing in the inn.
"I am Lü Qinghou, I am sorry for not welcoming you from afar, please forgive me~"
"Hey, stop showing off your knowledge to me and just speak frankly. I want to stay in the hotel!"
Zhu Wushuang was most annoyed by people who spoke in a hesitant and unresponsive manner, so he raised his hand to stop Lu Qinghou from talking nonsense.
Hearing this, Lu Qinghou opened his eyes slightly, took a look at Zhu Wushuang, who was exhausted and carrying a bag, and said seriously, "There are empty rooms upstairs, you can stay in any room you want, but this inn does not provide meals, and you need to clean up after yourself."
"No wonder your inn looks like it's going to close down!"
Zhu Wushuang looked around the dusty inn with a nonchalant look, frowning with some disdain. If it wasn't the only inn in Qixia Town, she would never stay here.
What's more, if you don't provide any service, why would anyone want to stay in your store? No wonder all your exclusive businesses have gone bankrupt.
"I will stay with you for a few days, and then I will leave after I find a place to stay. Tell me when I have spent the two taels of silver, and I will then decide whether I want to continue staying here."
When Lu Qinghou saw the money, his eyes widened. He quickly took the silver and nodded in agreement.
Zhu Wushuang had no desire to continue talking to him and went upstairs with his bag on his back.
The guest rooms upstairs looked fairly tidy and a little cleaner than downstairs, but only a little.
Zhu Wushuang fetched a bucket of water and it took him quite a while to clean up the mess.
She stretched, put down the rag in her hand, and planned to go out to eat something.
When Zhu Wushuang left the inn, Lu Qinghou was still reading a book intently and didn't notice that Zhu Wushuang had left.
Zhu Wushuang didn't disturb him either.
I had a quick bite in the town and asked where the dental clinic was.
After dinner, I went to the brokerage office and bought the house opposite the Shangru Inn.
She has decided to settle here in the future. Watching the people across the street laughing and joking every day is quite stress-relieving.
After coming out of the pawnshop, the three hundred taels of silver on Zhu Wushuang's body were gone, and were replaced by a house deed and a land deed.
Nowadays, the prices in Qixia Town are not high and the flow of people is not large. The main reason is that the house opposite Shangru Inn has been vacant for a long time. It is completely uninhabitable and must be renovated before it can be lived in.
So Zhu Wushuang bought a house and a piece of land at a very good price.
But it is basically impossible to move in in the near future, because Zhu Wushuang only has a dozen taels of silver left, which is not enough to repair the house.
For a short period of time, she could only stay at the cheap Shangru Inn.
In the following days, Zhu Wushuang regained motivation and started to "fish" near Qixia Town.
This time she didn't carry her erhu, and she actually managed to catch a few small fish.
After sending it to the county government to claim the reward, I no longer have to worry about having nowhere to go after spending all my rent.
Of course, there is still a long way to go before the money is enough to repair the house.
There was no other way. This year, Zhu Wushuang could only stay in Shangru Inn and spend it with Lu Qinghou.
On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhu Wushuang, who had nothing to do in the inn, could no longer bear the dirty and messy environment around her, so she forced Lu Qinghou to clean up with her.
Originally, Lu Qinghou wanted to refuse, but when he saw Zhu Wushuang break a bench with one palm, he immediately backed off and obediently listened to Zhu Wushuang's instructions to clean the tables around him.
Zhu Wushuang was sweeping the floor while watching Lu Qinghou cleaning.
As an innkeeper, maintaining basic hygiene in the inn is the most basic operation.
It's great that she helps out, don't expect her to do everything!
Lu Qinghou still wanted to be lazy, but Zhu Wushuang noticed and immediately raised his fist as a threat.
Under the threat of Zhu Wushuang's military force, Lu Qinghou hurriedly took action again.
Looking at the lazy Lu Qinghou, Zhu Wushuang shook her head helplessly. As a guest, she would not force Lu Qinghou to clean up if she couldn't bear it anymore.
Fortunately, after cleaning this time, we can last for a long time.
After Zhu Wushuang finished sweeping the floor, he told Lu Qinghou, "You continue cleaning. I'll go out and buy some vegetables and come back to cook."
As the year draws to a close, many restaurants in the town have closed down, otherwise she wouldn't have to go out to buy food and cook. Isn't it uncomfortable to eat ready-made food every day, and she doesn't have to clean up the dishes after eating.
When Lu Qinghou heard that Zhu Wushuang was going to cook, his eyes suddenly lit up with anticipation. God knows how long it has been since he had a hot meal. He is a grown man and can't cook. He just eats steamed buns and drinks well water every day.
When Lu Qinghou heard that he could have a hot meal, his eyes almost filled with tears.
"Okay, okay! I'll clean up here and wait for you to come back!"
Zhu Wushuang looked at Lu Qinghou's eager eyes and finally knew how to control him.
