Chapter 222: New House

I said a lot of things to myself, as if I had said all the words of the past ten years, it was too stuffy in the mountains, no one spoke, and now I saw that my friend had become a chatterbox.

Sleepiness suddenly appeared, Xia Kucao lay on the bed and held Bi Chen's hand tightly without letting go, the wind outside the window seemed to be particularly strong, and there was an occasional collision sound, which cat went to the wrong place?

This sleep was very sound, Xia Kucao got up early and stretched her waist, the person next to her suddenly moved, Xia Kucao thought she was wrong, stared carefully and looked again, sure enough, Bi Chen was moving, her fingers moved, her arms also moved, Xia Kucao shouted excitedly: "Bichen Bichen?"

Bi Chen slowly opened her eyes, she saw that Xia Kucao's eyes were still cold and detached, Xia Kucao nodded her chest without giving up: "I, Xia Kucao, your best friend, do you remember me?"

Bi Chen was still dazed, she shook her head, hugged her legs at the head of the bed, and was about to shrink herself into the turtle shell, Xia Kucao hurriedly straightened her head, looked at her with a smile, and said with a happy face:

"Bichen, let's go shopping!"

Bi Chen frowned, then shook her head, and broke her face out of her palm, Xia Kucao didn't give up and continued: "Bi Chen, we moved, we moved out of the Wu Clan, you see, this is no longer the place where you eat people and don't spit out bones, we have a new home, and then buy something to decorate it, okay?"

Yes, Zi Xuan had already arranged this matter early in the morning, and after the knock on the door, it was Zi Xuan's joyful voice, he didn't enter the door, but his voice was not small: "Xia Kucao, the matter you explained to me has been done, Xanadu, it is absolutely in line with your heart." ”

Xia Kucao smiled slightly, she woke him up drunk last night, and he didn't forget what she said in his ear, not bad.

Xia Kucao got out of bed and opened the door, and said with a smile: "Then thank you master, you are really powerful, let me see the title deed." ”

Zi Xuan made a fool of himself, put his hands behind his back, and smiled evilly: "Shout out Senior Brother to listen, I'll give it to you if it sounds good!"

Xia Kucao squinted slightly, and looked at Ji Zixuan with a slight threat: "Do you really want me to call out senior brother?"

Zixuan blinked, stretched out the title deed, shook his head obediently and said with a smile: "It's not necessarily that you have to shout now, and it's the same to listen to it later." ”

Xia Kucao took the things, Peng, closed the door, Zixuan looked at the stiff door and pouted, it was not like this when he begged for someone.

Xia Kucao looked at the location of the house deed, she seemed to be familiar with this place, she was busy dressing up and tidying up, helping Bichen to clean up, shouting Jian Yang next door, and finally carefully knocked on the master's door, the door opened, and the master was already ready to go, and he was full of energy.

Xia Kucao smiled and nodded: "Master, Senior Brother has already helped me find a place, should we go and have a look now?"

Shi Hanshui nodded, and Xia Kucao knocked on Zixuan's door again, and Zixuan reluctantly opened the door: "Can't you rest and rest and then go, I'm afraid it's not cleaned yet, oh, I forgot to tell you, by the way, I found a few slaves, and they are already cleaning up the yard." ”

Xia Kucao's eyes widened: "Hey, Zixuan, we are not a rich family, what kind of slave do you want, do you think it is your family!"

Zixuan spread his hands helplessly and shrugged: "I thought you didn't want to delay time, I wanted you to live in a clean house immediately, you know that the head of the house is also here, and if you stay for a while, there may be more dangers, but if you don't want to, you can only retreat." ”

Xia Kucao turned her head and thought, yes, the master is still waiting for her, she can't let him wait too long, there are still many things in the mountains waiting for him to deal with, and there are crises everywhere outside, and he really doesn't treat people from time to time.

Looking back again, Xia Kucao smiled brightly, patted Zixuan's shoulder, and smiled: "Second brother, you did a really good job, and you thought thoughtfully, but the junior sister doesn't have your delicate heart, you don't care." ”

Zixuan snorted triumphantly, and when he arrived at that place, Xia Kucao was stunned.

Let Zixuan buy an ordinary house, the only thing he put forward is two requirements, first, to avoid the crowded market, it is best to be close to the mountains and rivers, suitable for recuperation, and second, it is best to have medicinal herbs nearby, and Jian Yang's favorite thing to do on weekdays is to dig herbs.

Zi Xuan firmly remembered these two requirements, but what he was looking for was not a thatched house under the beautiful mountains and rivers, nor an elegant cottage in the forest.

The first thing that catches your eye is a lake with a hill in the back, and a cottage on top of the lake, with the mountains in the background.

The water of the lake is very clear, and above the lake is a small wooden bridge, which is 20 centimeters away from the water, and you can clearly see the fish and aquatic plants at the bottom of the water.

This small bridge is very beautiful, turn eighteen bends, all the way to enjoy the surrounding scenery can come to the gate, the most rare thing is that there is a wooden yard in this gate, there are all kinds of potted plants, flowers and trees are all kind, particularly beautiful, there are several houses around the yard.

These houses are ten centimeters higher than the courtyard, presumably to protect them from the damp water, and as soon as the door is opened, a majestic wind blows, and a fragrance hits the face, which is the fragrance of flowers blooming in the mountains.

There are two windows, one facing the hill and the other facing the bridge, which is very good, and these two places are good exits to hide and escape if there is an accident.

These rooms are also very large, and the slave Xia Kucao that Zixuan said saw it, but his jaw dropped in shock, it was two old men, an old grandfather and an old grandmother, staggering.

The house was spotless and clean when they disturbed it, and Xia Withered Cao touched Zixuan puzzled: "This is the slave you hired?"

Zixuan nodded proudly, and corrected in a low voice: "It's not hired, but bought!"

Xia Kucao looked puzzled, Zixuan pointed to the old woman and said: "In fact, this is a husband and wife, when I bought this house, the owner asked me if I wanted to hire a slave, and told me that this couple has helped him take care of this paradise since he was young, and they are very familiar with this place.

He bought this house when he was young, and he couldn't come once or twice a year, all by their husband and wife, and now he is also old, sick, and wants to live under the knees of his children and grandchildren, and this place is too far away from the town, it is not good to ask for a doctor, he can't live in this paradise, and his children persuade him to sell it, just we have this intention, I think about it carefully, this couple has been here for decades, and it is not good to drive away suddenly, and they are familiar with this place, and it will definitely be useful in the future, so I bought them together. ”

Xia Kucao glanced at Zixuan with a little emotion, and then looked at the faltering couple, and stood aside with a humble face waiting for the order, Xia Kucao patted Zixuan's arm: "You did this very properly, I didn't expect you to be so humane, I think what you said is very reasonable." ”

Zixuan smiled, he knew Prunella grass too well, he didn't have to think about it to know that she would agree.

Xia Kucao gave Jian Yang a brief introduction, and probably passed the word, Jian Yang nodded slightly, walked over and said something to the couple, only to see the husband and wife kneeling on the ground and kowtowing in gratitude.

Xia Kucao heard the woman's words: "Thank you for the kindness of the owner, but we two old men and grandmothers have no children, no daughters and no property in our lives, only here we have the care of the previous old owner to let us settle down, we carefully guard this place, without slackness."

Now, although the owner has given us the opportunity to get out of slavery, there is no difference between slavery and non-slavery for us, but we want to beg the owner, let us two continue to help you guard this house, the house is repaired, the bridge is repaired, our old man is a good hand, and I cook a good dish, saving the owner the money to find a cook, okay?"

The old woman's humble prayer pierced the heart of the summer grass, who had been a slave only.

Jian Yang is not a ruthless person, he saw that the couple was old, it was time to enjoy their old age, and wanted to restore their civilian status and live a normal life, he didn't expect that this was not what they wanted, listening to the old woman, he knew that they had misunderstood.

Hurriedly nodded and said sincerely: "Auntie, so very good, very good, it's just that I am a doctor, I have never used slaves, I am not used to it, and I don't like it, in this way, it just so happens that I have the slave status of the two of you in my hands, I will restore your civilian status, and pay you the same remuneration in addition, you have also seen, we have a patient here who needs to be taken care of, and it is good to have someone to take care of it." ”

The old woman and the old slave suddenly knelt down and wept gratefully: "Thank you, the new owner, we are really favored by God, although we are slaves, we have not been treated unfairly, and now we have met a great good person like you, or a doctor who helps the world and saves people, it is really God's eyes."

We don't want to and won't accept your payment, we just want to follow the owner, have a hot meal, have a place to stay, and other things outside the body are not beneficial to us. ”

Jian Yang bowed to the two couples very seriously and said, "Then please leave it to the two, there will be no need to distinguish between dignity and humility in the future." ”

The old woman hurriedly pulled Jian Yang's arm, stammered a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly said, "Don't be like this, don't be like this, just trust us!"

Xia Kucao's heart was slightly warm, this old woman was a kind-hearted person at first glance, and she had no children and no daughters, Bichen just needed someone to take care of her, Jian Yang was a big man after all, and there were many inconveniences, which was just what she wanted.

Xia Kucao looked at the master and said with a smile, "Master, what do you think of this place?"

Shi Hanshui faces the lake, the lake is sparkling, surrounded by mountains and rivers nearby, the environment is very pleasant, Shi Hanshui nodded slightly: "Very good." ”

Xia Kucao jumped up and looked at the other rooms one by one, and gently took Bi Chen's hand and whispered: "Bi Chen, go, I'll take you to your room, I have chosen a very beautiful room for you, I think you will definitely like this room, here, it will be your home in the future!"

Bi Chen also seemed to be attracted by the scenery around here, she looked around curiously, and did not refuse the invitation of Prunella grass, and walked forward step by step with the traction of Prunella grass.
