Chapter 148: My Bridegroom Is Not Him
Three days later, Xue Qianxun came over, Tang Qing'er took him to his father's house, Xue Qianxun didn't care to salute them and greet them: "Uncle, I have inquired about the house, I am optimistic about the three, you see which of the three you are satisfied with," Tang Qing'er stood aside and urged him to hurry up.
Xue Qianxun coughed and said: "The first one is the first family at the northwest fork in the town, this family wants to move their family, and the selling price is three hundred taels, this location is not a good location, they are all outsiders, and it is not very safe, so the price is not high, it is far away from the vegetable market in the center of the town, and it is not very convenient to buy things." ”
Li stirred his handkerchief and said, "What about the second one?" ”
Xue Qianxun continued: "This second house is in the center of the town, sitting in the north and facing south, facing the downtown area, there are only a lot of people coming and going, and the selling price is relatively high, it takes 1,200 taels of silver to sell, but this house is very large, three in and three out, there are wells in the courtyard, and the scenery in the courtyard is also good, the family is moving to the capital, and the things are not taken away, leaving them for you to use, and I have specially seen that the furniture is all good mahogany, and these things are not a few hundred taels that cannot be brought down, if you move in, there are very few things that you need to add,"
Tang Qing'er interrupted him and said, "Let's not talk about the third one, which of the three do you think is the best?"
Xue Qianxun played with taste: "I'm optimistic about the second one, just the things left by his family are worth four or five hundred taels, so his house is only seven or eight hundred taels of silver, which is very cheap in the center of the town,"
"Oh, then, let's buy a second house! Daddy, what do you think? ”
Li and Tang Tiezhu glanced at each other, in the past few years, the family has some family background, but let them spend so much money to buy a house at one time, they are really a little reluctant, the cheap one is not good, the good one is too expensive, seeing that the girl and Xun'er are optimistic about the second family, the two nodded in agreement.
Xue Qianxun said to Tang Qing'er: "You don't want to hear about the situation of the third house, what if you like the third house?" ”
Tang Qing'er raised her eyebrows and said: "You have calculated in your heart, what I said is not the one you are optimistic about in the end," from the first house he said, Tang Qing'er noticed that the expression on his face was indifferent, and he was completely telling one thing, and when he talked about the second house, a smile appeared on his face, and the satisfaction in his eyes and mouth was overflowing, so why talk about the last one.
Xue Qianxun took advantage of the Tang couple's inattention, pinched Tang Qing'er's hand, and whispered, "You really know me very well,"
This guy became arrogant here again, so Tang Qing'er glared at him and said, "Be careful to let your father and mother see it." ”
At this time, Tang Tiezhu was a little worried: "No one in the village knows how much money our family has now, if we spend so much money to buy a house in the town, we must not let the people in the village gather to visit,"
Li Shi said angrily: "Look at your cowardly appearance, we are rich and afraid of people talking,"
Tang Tiezhu said in a sullen voice: "I'm afraid of attracting the jealousy of people with a heart," especially the Zhang family, if she knew about it, maybe she would stick to his family and move to the town together.
Tang Qing'er tunnel: "We said to the outside world that we rented a house in the town for our younger brothers to study, and if someone asked why they rented such a good house, we said that the Xue family helped from it, and the rent was very cheap." He deliberately glanced at Xue Qianxun.
Is that good? Li looked at Xun'er with some uncertainty, and Xue Qianxun said indifferently: "Auntie, I think Qing'er's idea is good, you just push it on me, anyway, this matter only needs a few of us to know, what does it matter if others misunderstand." ”
After such a big matter was solved, Li said: "I'll give you money, and then you take your uncle to the town to buy that house, and then go to the government office to register,"
Xue Qianxun smiled and said, "Auntie, you are also a little too anxious, you haven't gone to see it with me, so you hurriedly sat down and decided." ”
Li patted his head and said: "What's this, I don't believe who else you can believe, we will be a family in the future, I will forget the hour when I am happy, you have been here for so long, you haven't had lunch yet, auntie will cook for you, you will give me a hand in charge, Qing'er will talk to Xun'er in the house,"
After Tang Tiezhu and his wife left, Tang Qing'er glanced at him and said, "You have already bought this house!" ”
Xue Qianxun knew my expression of Mo Ruo, recalled the courtyard and said lightly: "Well, I have seen the house, it is really good, I bought it, thinking that if you don't buy it, I will keep it myself, you don't see the layout of the house, you will be happy to see it, you can see a row of osmanthus flowers under the window when you enter the courtyard, the posture is beautiful, slim and elegant, the mid-autumn flowers, the fragrance is rich, it can be described as "monopolizing the three autumn pressure group Fang, He Kua orange green and orange yellow", this courtyard is tall and spacious, the courtyard is small and exquisite, plus the south wall is towering, and the vine grass on the wall is paintedThere is a flower bed under the wall, planting magnolia, the color is fragrant and pleasant, there is a pool of clear water in the inside, which is planted and the lotus, it is really: "The green lotus covers the green water, and the hibiscus is red and fresh." There is a root lotus root under it, and a lotus root on the top. "The scenery is so beautiful that you don't know where you are.
Tang Qing'er could imagine the picture that Xue Qianxun said, and couldn't help asking, "Then why don't you keep it for yourself and let my family buy it." “
Xue Qianxun said with a smile: "After you and I get married, you must live in Xue Mansion, no matter how good the mansion is, you can't start another mansion, I bought it so that when you are depressed in the mansion in the future, you can go there to relieve your mood, if your family likes to buy it, you can live there in advance." “
"I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful," Tang Qing'er couldn't help but look at him differently.
Tang Qing'er thought of another thing and said: "Two days ago, my mother asked me, after we move to the town, what kind of business can we do, you can help us come up with an idea." “
Xue Qianxun was surprised: "How did you think of this? “
Tang Qing'er sighed and said: "It's not my mother yet, I said that I don't know anyone in the town, if I don't do something, wouldn't it be boring to stay in the town." “
Xue Qianxun thought for a while and said: "I really don't have any idea about this, besides, your younger brothers haven't been admitted to Xiucai yet, if doing business at this time is not good for their reputation,"
Tang Qing'er said: "I have also thought about this problem, but if I have been idle in the town, I will be a little unbearable, in the village, at least I can still play with my father to drum up the land, when I get to the town, I can only face the four big walls,"
Xue Qianxun said slowly: "You let me think about this, and I will give you an idea later!" “
That's all you can do! Then Tang Qing'er said, "You help me think about it, and I'll think about it myself," Xue Qianxun nodded in agreement.
In the kitchen, Li Shitong said: "In a while, you will go to the town with Xun'er, exchange the silver taels left over from buying the house into silver tickets, and ask Sanshun to send you back,"
Tang Tiezhu said: "Why did you change it to a silver ticket?"
Li Shi expressed his daughter's worries, Tang Tiezhu nodded after hearing this, and then said: "I bought a house for 1,200 taels of silver, which is really expensive, if this is in the village, how many houses can we build, how much land can we buy." “
Li said: "I'm also distressed, but when I think of my sons, I can be ruthless, if one of them will be admitted to the top of the exam in the future, and we live in the town, wouldn't it give them a long face,"
Tang Tiezhu said with a smile: "I don't know which of my babies can be admitted to the top prize,"
Li said: "It's best to be admitted, then I'm happy?" “
"My daughter-in-law is right, it's good to be admitted?" If the sons of the family have become champions, they can't help but laugh out loud when they think about it.
During the meal, Tang Tiezhu and his wife were full of joy, the more they looked at Xue Qianxun, the more satisfied they became, they were wholeheartedly good to them, but their daughter still looked heartless, which couldn't help but make people angry.
Li said to Tang Qing'er: "In the future, you have a better attitude towards Xun'er, don't be arrogant day by day,"
Thinking that Xue Qianxun had really done the family a great favor, he put a piece of green vegetables in his bowl, Xue Qianxun smiled and ate it, and Li looked at the two of them with satisfaction and smiled.
Swallowing the food in his mouth, Tang Tiezhu said: "After the house is bought, when will we move over?" “
Li said: "It's better to wait for the second brother and sister to give birth to a baby, and then move to the town!" “
Tang Tiezhu nodded yes.
Xue Qianxun came out of the Tang family and was sent back to the house by Sanshun, and Sanshun drove the carriage to pull Tang Tiezhu to Qianzhuang, he saw Xue Ning in a hurry coming when he entered the house, and ignored her and turned around to go to his grandmother's room. Seeing that he stopped moving, he took his hand like a life-saving grass and said, "Big brother, you can help me." “
Xue Qianxun broke her hand away a little coldly, and said lightly: "En? “
Xue Ning said intermittently: "Big brother, as long as you go to your father to intercede for me, your father will be able to fulfill my wish." “
Xue Qianxun raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "Why do I want to help you, I have to fulfill your wish, what does your wish have to do with me." “
Xue Ning couldn't confidently look at him and said this, and said, "Big brother, I've been following your ass since I was a child, how good you were to me at that time, why do you always ignore me now." “
"What do you say?" Knowingly asked.
Xue Ning couldn't give up, and continued to take Xue Qianxun's hand and said: "Big brother, I don't want to marry Xu Gongzi, I want to marry my cousin, eldest brother, you help me go to my father's to talk, it's really not good, let the second sister marry Xu Gongzi for me,"
Xue Qianxun looked at her intently and said: "Is marriage child's play, you were tired of trying to marry Xu Gongzi at the beginning, and now you meet your wishes, you come to such a play again, is it child's play for you to marry two families?" “
Xue Ning cried: "I don't know if he is so attentive, how many concubines there are in the family?" When I got married, I didn't want to compete with many people for a father-in-law, I didn't want to live like this," she didn't want to be like her aunt, who was calculating how to hold her father's heart every day.
"Don't regret the path you chose now," Xue Qianxun didn't bother to pay attention to her, pushed her hand away, and resolutely left, she married Xu Gongzi, but he helped her a lot behind her back, and now she wants to marry or not, it's too late.
Like the last life-saving grass broken, Xue Ning sat on the ground and said in a low voice: "I don't marry Xu Gongzi, I want to marry my cousin, I won't marry,"
Xue Qianxun snorted coldly, and continued to walk towards his grandmother's room, he entered his grandmother's room with light steps, and saw that she was alone in the room, so he couldn't help asking, "Why didn't Mama Tao serve by your side?"
Mrs. Xue said, "I asked her to help me do something, but she hasn't come back yet,"
"Oh, that's right," Xue Qianxun sat down with his grandmother and gently massaged her legs.
Old Lady Xue looked at the eldest grandson and said with a kind face: "On the way back, you can meet Ning'er." “
Xue Qianxun said lightly: "I met it, maybe I'm still crying at the door now?" “
"Don't pay attention to her, anyway, the date of marriage is set, and nothing she is saying can change the established facts," Mrs. Xue has always disliked this granddaughter, and she can't wait for her to get married early.
"I don't care, I'm afraid that someone will have soft ears," Xue Qianxun deliberately threw his father out in front of his grandmother to prevent his father from doing something unexpected.
Mrs. Xue patted her grandson's hand and said, "Don't worry, your father doesn't dare, with me, this matter is a certainty." “
Xue Qianxun lowered his head and continued to rub his grandmother's legs, but the corners of his mouth kept rising.
