Chapter 256: Failing the exam is intolerable
Qixi also nodded in agreement, originally felt that the small courtyard behind the shop in the town was already quite elegant, but it really can't compare to this, Qixi recalled the big mansion that I saw in Xufu, which is a bit of the style of Xufu's yard, and I don't know if the previous owner of Lu Dao had been to the south, and made the yard so exquisite.
"This yard is so beautiful...... Yun Duo was overjoyed, and he was very happy to think that there should be such a beautiful yard at home, but he soon became sad, "Xi'er, how much does this cost?"
Yun Rong couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and he was a little embarrassed to the second sister, so he couldn't help laughing, and then said softly: "What do you care, if it's too expensive, we won't buy it." ”
Yun Rong was poor and happy, but Yun Duo didn't follow, and muttered: "Then what's the matter? Such a beautiful yard, this place is still quiet, if our family can buy it, it would be good if we went back to my brother and they had a vacation in school, so we all came to live here." ”
"You're going to buy it, we're going to open a shop, and you'll be busy when the time comes. Qixi glanced at the second sister funny, and then followed over to the room to take a closer look.
When they went out again, the expressions on the faces of the family were relaxed, and Qixi looked at the looks of his father and mother and the second uncle and second aunt, and Zhilu Dao was satisfied with this house, but this was not the Zhao family's house, but the original owner was quite related to the Zhao family, and it was the Zhao family's steward who took the key and brought people over to see it on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
"Steward Zhao, I'm sorry for you, I don't know when to talk to the landlord about this house price?" When he went out, Shen Chenghou whispered a few words to his wife and children, then turned his head and asked politely.
"Speaking of which, I would like to ask for a few people's forgiveness. Don't hide a few. The homeowner is not in the county right now. But I didn't come back until the seventh day of the new year, but I had to trouble a few people to wait, I'm really sorry. The Zhao family steward was busy.
Speaking of which, he was also a little embarrassed, this is the young master's personal care of the family, he naturally has to be careful to help with things, but he didn't expect to come over so early, the family went to Fucheng for the New Year, and the person in charge was not at home. Although he knows everything about the house price, he can't help sell the house every two days.
"Steward Zhao, don't say that, we have a lot of trouble for you, so let's just wait for the master to come back and talk about it. Shen Chenghou waved his hand when he heard this, he was originally annoying that people came over, so how could he still be picky.
"Thank you, thank you. But I don't know if it is convenient for a few people to live in an inn now? My young master instructed that when he was in the county, it was better to go to the Zhao family's house, and everything should be prepared. The Zhao family's steward demeanor became more and more respectful, and the Shen family was also interesting, and they were not too proud of the fact that there were people behind them. and that he may be willing to do things that have been commanded by the Lord's house.
Besides, he has been in charge of the Zhao family for so long, and it is the first time that he has been ordered by the young master. Let people be brought into their own houses to live, this is not something ordinary people can have.
"No, no, it's very convenient for us to stay in the inn, so we won't bother Steward Zhao. Shen Chenghou hurriedly refused, even if the Zhao family brothers and sisters were there, he would not be bothered by the next family.
Steward Zhao didn't insist when he heard it, and the young master also instructed that if the Shen family didn't want to, don't force it, just take care of the affairs of this house, and there are also other people to help him run, he has to urge him to turn around, and he has to do it tightly when the house is decided.
The group came out happily again, and said that they would talk about it after the seventh master came back, which was in line with the meaning of the Shen family, and it would be great if they could successfully buy this house after the seventh year of the first year of the exam.
After coming out of the land that was about to become her own house, Qixi was full of joy, turned her head to look at it, and the more she looked, the more she felt that the local party committee was really good, this is not that she likes the new and hates the old, the county is naturally much better than the town, and there is nothing wrong with buying a better and better house at home.
Before getting into the carriage, Tanabata couldn't help but look at the house next door, the door was closed, and there was no sound at all, as quiet as the house nearby, thinking of the young lady and the little girl, Tanabata smiled, and really said, there is really a fate to be a neighbor.
Farewell to the Zhao family steward and returned to the inn, the clouds on the carriage kept chattering, and kept saying how much she liked the house, but Qixi quietly did not say a few words, in fact, her mind has now turned to how to clean up this house, since she has found such a good place, a better place than expected, then you must clean it up well, and strive for the restaurant at home is not opened, and it will be on fire as soon as it is opened.
Yun Duo said all the way, Qixi kept looking down and thinking about things, and when he got out of the car and remembered a key, Qixi hurriedly went straight to her father, pulled her father and asked, "Dad, what did the Zhao family steward tell you when he got in the car just now?"
Shen Chenghou smiled, the little girl's eyes were sharp enough, so she didn't answer and asked, "What do you guess he told his father?"
Qixi rolled his eyes, the Zhao family steward met for the first time today, where would he have any private words with his father, thinking about it like this, then there was only one thing left, and although the tone was questioning, he seemed very determined: "Is it the house price?" Dad, he told you the house price, right?"
"Xi'er has a real brain. Shen Chenghou smiled, and knew that the little girl was smart, and this child could think of anything.
"Dad, tell me quickly, tell me quickly, how much is that house, can we afford it?" Yun Duo also followed, and when she heard it, she quickly asked, now she cares more about whether this house can be bought than Qixi Festival.
As she shouted, the first few people behind her also came over, all looking at Shen Chenghou fixedly and waiting for his answer.
Shen Chenghou smiled and stretched out his slap to shake it.
"Fifty taels?" Yun Duo said subconsciously, and before anyone else could say anything, he hurriedly said embarrassedly, "No, no, I said something wrong, five hundred taels?"
Even if you think about the lower house price, it won't be fifty taels, and the shop in the town at home also costs one hundred and eighty taels, and that's because there are twists and turns in the middle The owner is generous to give it cheaper, this house is much stronger than that in any way, if it's really fifty taels, it's picked up for nothing, so it's ...... Five hundred taels?
Shen Chenghou nodded and said with a smile: "The steward of the Zhao family said that this is the price given by the owner, and he also helped to see that this house is indeed worth this price in this area." ”
"Five hundred taels?" Qixi repeated in a low voice, thinking about this price, if it was such a big house in an ordinary county, it should not be worth the price, but she could also see that the location was not ordinary, I was afraid that the price of the house was one thing, and the value of opening the shop was the most important.
"Five hundred taels?" Yun Duo also repeated, thinking about how much money the family has, remembering the family's income these days, especially when he came, he glanced at the account book, and immediately said happily, "Oh, if it's really five hundred taels, our family can afford it." "Yun Duo is happy, great, such a beautiful house in the future is her fake, this is really a great thing.
Yun Rong hurriedly went over to cover his sister's mouth, and whispered: "You be quiet, this is at the door of the inn, don't you know if your wealth is not exposed?"
Yun Duo nodded hurriedly, signaling her sister to let go of her hand, but the smile on her face couldn't be taken back, and when she saw her father nodding his head in affirmation, she hurriedly cheered and ran to the inn, she wanted to hurry up and tell her brothers the good news.
She was anxious to share the good news, and everyone inside was waiting.
"What's going on?" As soon as he returned to the inn, Yun Duo was the first to run into the house, and Jing Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and asked, obviously even if he stayed in the inn, he didn't have much to pay attention to studying, but he just tossed it around.
"Ahem......" Yun Duo coughed pretendedly, deliberately hanging on the appetite of his brothers.
"Speak quickly, speak quickly. Jing Sheng urged, and hurriedly said, "I bought food just now, and I said that my brother will give it to you to eat immediately." ”
Yun Duo went to look at her eldest brother again, waiting for him to take something to bribe, who expected that the old god Jingwen was sitting on the ground, looking at his sister's puzzled gaze, and then he spoke: "I guess it should be done, right?"
Yun Duo's eyes widened, Jing Sheng was puzzled, and the few people who came in later also looked at him when they heard Jing Wen's words.
Jingwen smiled and said: "If it weren't for the second sister, I wouldn't have such a smug expression, this is just waiting to show good news, am I right?"
"Big brother......" Yun Duo was happy, and suddenly jumped over and pulled her eldest brother and said, "Big brother, you are so smart, you can even guess this, if those gentlemen don't let you pass the exam tomorrow, it will be a big intolerable reason." ”
"It's all about where and where. Jingwen couldn't cry or laugh, and the second sister happily pulled him to speak.
The matter of the house is very smooth, and I talked to Jingwen in detail, saying that when the whole family goes to buy a house together after the exam, they will all be relieved, and the next thing is to worry about Ming'er's exam.
A few people who are going to take the exam look very calm, Jingwen is temperament is like this, although in fact, he wants to study the most, but at this time there is quite a bit of mood and anger, leaving Jingsheng is a big heart, Li Wenxuan is still young, Li Taihe said that if he can't take the exam this year, he will come back next year.
"Wen'er Sheng'er, what do you want to eat?" Shen Chenghou, who has always been what he eats at home, rarely took the initiative to ask, and he couldn't stop asking, "You have to eat something good, eat well, sleep well, and take the exam well." ”
"Dad, let's just eat what we usually eat now, the exam is not in this meal. Jingwen smiled and said comfortingly.
Shen Chenghou also smiled, knowing that his son was right, but he was just worried, and it was a belated worry, and the closer he got to the exam, the more difficult it was to calm down. (To be continued......)
