This courtyard house was divided into three courtyards: front, middle, and back.
As for Qin Mu, he stayed in the middle courtyard with Yi Zhonghai, Silly He Yuzhu, and Widow Qin Huiru.
Of course, Qin Mu had transmigrated a little too early. Qin Huairu hadn't become a widow yet.
His dead husband was still working in the rolling mill.
It was the same treatment as in the front yard.
The moment Qin Mu walked into the courtyard, everyone in the courtyard had their noses pinched.
Qin Muye treated them the same. He ignored them and walked straight into his house.
His room was right next to Qin Huiru's.
It was a side room.
There was only one room inside.
The area was not big, only about ten square meters. The furniture inside was even more shabby. There was a lame table, a creaking bed, and an old-fashioned stove with an iron pot on it. Other than that, there was only a pair of chopsticks and nothing else.
It couldn't be helped. His parents died early.
These items were bought when his father was still around. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed.
He had always relied on the street gang to survive. It was already good enough for him to have a bite to eat and not starve to death.
Why would he think of buying other items?
However, all of this would eventually end.
Now, not only did he find a high-paying job, but he also activated the system.
In the future, he could only become more and more popular!
.....................
"Pfft, how unlucky. Why is this god of plague wandering around in the middle of the day?”
When they saw Qin Mu enter the house, the neighbors outside began to pull their wives 'tongues.
The person who spoke was Qin Huairu's mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi.
As the old granny spoke, she looked fiercely at Qin Mu's house.
Because she had been having headaches recently, she felt that it was caused by Qin Mu, this cursed lone star.
Hence, whenever she saw Qin Mu, her expression would be unpleasant.
"If it were up to me, this kid should have drowned back then, so that he wouldn't be an eyesore here and harm others again!”
"Hey, I heard that this kid found a good job today. He doesn't have to live off a hundred families in the future!”
The term "Hundred Family Rice" sounded nice, but it actually meant begging.
His words were also insulting!
"Pah, this kid can find a job?”Jia Zhang-shi took over the conversation and threw her two fat cheeks and spat.
"Hey, Auntie Zhang, don't you believe me. I heard that the street office really found a job for this kid. I heard that the salary is not low!”
"That's right. Yesterday, he told me that Little Mu is now a young man, so logically speaking, he should be independent. He can't just wander around aimlessly. So, the street office decided to find him a job!”
The one who spoke was a middle-aged woman. Yi Zhonghai, the old man in the family, had a high prestige in the courtyard. He was also very close to the people from the street office.
Therefore, her words were very credible!
"Really?" Jia Zhang-shi pursed her lips.”
It was no wonder that Jia Zhangshi was skeptical. Because in these days, a formal job was like a carrot and a pit. If you wanted to find a decent job, you had to rely on your connections.
It wasn't something you could enter as you pleased.
However, Qin Mu had no one to rely on since he was young. He grew up alone and relied on the help of his neighbors, so how could he find a job?
A middle-aged woman also noticed Jia Zhangshi's confusion and explained,""Sister-in-law, I understand what you mean. Logically speaking, with Little Mu's situation, it's hard for him to find a good job, but that doesn't mean that he doesn't have one!”
"Yesterday, our Old Yi also mentioned that he had arranged for Little Mu to be placed in the funeral parlor outside the suburbs!”
"You also know that most people in this funeral parlor are not willing to work there, so I introduced them to Little Mu.”
As soon as the funeral parlor's words came out, Jia Zhangshi hurriedly stood up.
"What? The funeral parlor is so unlucky!"
Then, she slapped her clothes repeatedly, as if Qin Mu had slapped her just now and had gotten her bad luck.
"Aiyo, I was wondering why I've been so unlucky recently. So it's all because of this kid. This fiend is unlucky to begin with, so why did he go to the funeral parlor?”
"Do you think we'll have a good life living with such a fiend?”
"No, I'll go to the street office now. I must chase this kid out of the courtyard!”
Seeing that Jia Zhangshi was about to start throwing a tantrum, an auntie also went forward to persuade her.
"Sister-in-law, what year is it already? Why do you still believe in this? Aren't you afraid?"
As she spoke, an auntie gestured outside.
At this moment, Jia Zhangshi finally reacted.
Now that the higher-ups were shouting so loudly, this feudal and superstitious thinking was not to be tolerated. It might even be a light punishment to be paraded on the streets.
Therefore, when she thought of this, although Jia Zhang-shi's heart was filled with anxiety, she could only give up resentfully!
.....................
In the house, Qin Mu also scoffed at the words outside.
If Jia Zhang-shi wanted to say something, then let her say it. He still felt that this old woman was making too little noise.
What era is this now? You're still doing this. You're complaining that you're not living happily.
With that in mind, Qin Mu washed up and prepared to cook.
She had woken up early today for this job and hadn't even had a meal. She was already starving.
Therefore, the world was the most important.
With a thought, he took out the rice that he had been rewarded with.
Then, he scooped a bowl and put it into the pot.
However, when he saw the pot, Qin Mu sighed again.
"Sigh, how long has it been since I last cooked at home?”
This pot was about to rust and breathe. It seemed that he had to change it in the next two days.
The good thing was that because they didn't cook at home, there was still a lot of coal left from the street office during the winter.
Soon, a pot of fragrant rice was served.
Of course, judging from the current situation, he didn't have the conditions to cook.
But even so, it was still much better than before.
