Chapter 1091: Gossip

After reading the room, I rumbled to the back to see the waterway where the water pipe went, the huge boiler installed in the distribution room was the focus, and there was a water tank on the roof to supply water to the bathroom, and the waste water was collected into the septic tank behind the house through the underground pottery pipe, and it was never directly discharged into the groundwater. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The renovation cost of 12,000 taels of silver, 6,000 taels of silver spent on this underground pottery pipe, the whole house was paved, and the craftsmen said that this was a big deal, but after the laying was completed, there was basically no need to bother with excrement.

Although Bai Ko recommended this new way of life, but this one-time investment is indeed amazing, she also because of this new house to think of such a reconstruction, if the old house is full of people, it is very troublesome to want to rebuild it like this, the family has to move around, it is difficult for people to make up their minds to do this without an opportunity.

Therefore, the plan of the model house, Bai Ko takes a long-term route, although he wants to sell the boiler, but he is really not in a hurry, and it is possible to make people move the idea of changing the house when they encounter a major event of marriage and funeral.

"This house has been changed like this, the interior is clean and bright, the water is convenient, and there are not too many people to serve it." Jing Yun rubbed back to Bai Ko's side, "I'll line up to book one first, and when I have the county lord's mansion in the future, I will also rebuild it like this." ”

"Okay, that's it." Bai Ko smiled, and the first business intention was reached.

"The county lord is still young, and the county lord's mansion will be a few years later, I'm afraid this soup will be tasted by the courtiers first." Mrs. Gu San interjected with a smile, "We are about to buy a house, it just so happens that the new house will be rebuilt like this, saving manpower is saving money, and the monthly silver of a person for a year and the expenses of eating, drinking, and sleeping add up to dozens of taels or even hundreds of taels of silver." ”

Mrs. Gu San's words made everyone happy, they are all in charge of the money, and they all look like big families, but the expenses are also large, and every penny has to be spent carefully, everyone knows about the separation of the Yeguo Mansion last year, because Gu Jing wants to participate in the test, the old lady allowed the third room to stay in the mansion all the time, and now Gu Jing is a second-class jinshi, and he will officially move after getting married, and it is just right for the new family to get it like this.

When it came to Mrs. Gu's new home, the topic turned to the new house, a group of women chatted about the location, housing prices and the surrounding environment, Bai Qiao took them back to the front yard, asked Ning Peilan to take care of the guests, she changed her clothes and rushed to the kitchen.

Emperor Zhenghui regretted it a little, he couldn't interject in the topic of women, even his sister could talk to others, he was bored alone, and when he saw that no one noticed him, he wandered around in Bai Ko's upper room.

There is nothing to see in the study, the bedroom has just been seen, Zhenghui went around from the front hall to the back of the retreat, when he visited the boiler room before, he saw that there was a very comfortable wooden corridor behind it, he lay down directly with his hands on his pillow, the courtyard was full of green trees, the fragrance of flowers was pleasant, the breeze was blowing slowly, it was very comfortable, and it would be better if there was a plate of fruit at hand.

Just thinking like this, Zhenghui heard the faint footsteps coming towards him, he lay still, just opened his eyes slightly, and saw that it was Gonggong Lu and Xiao Yezi who were accompanying his father, so he opened his eyes wide, watched them put down the things in their hands, and brought cushions to lay on the floor.

The small leaves came with a large tray of cut fruit and an ice bucket full of juice bottles.

The little emperor and grandson still lay still, just opened his mouth to ask Xiao Yezi to feed him fruit.

Father-in-law Lu was old and couldn't kneel, so he sat on the edge of the back porch with his feet down, blowing the breeze, looking at the scenery of the back yard, except for the old trees with a canopy, the flower pots on the ground looked brand new, but the flowers were blooming well, so he chatted with Xiao Yezi, and learned that it was indeed sent by relatives yesterday to eat the banquet, and the florists moved the best ones and put them here.

"Mr. Bai doesn't lack anything, and he doesn't want any gifts from relatives and elders, but the elders feel that it is disrespectful to the owner to bring no gifts to the warm house banquet, and when they think about it, they think that they just need potted flowers to decorate the house, so she pointed out that as long as the flowers and trees, nothing else is wanted."

"Hehehehe, Mr. Bai is a real person, and the layout here is quite good, leisurely."

"Well, Mr. Bai likes it here, this floor is what she asked to pave, she said that when it is cold, she will eat barbecue in this courtyard, roast a piece and eat a piece, if it snows, eat hot pot, put aside a plate of fat sheep and a plate of fat cow, and eat a piece of shabu."

Gong Zhenghui got up and widened his eyes, "When you eat barbecue and hot pot, remember to call me in advance!" ”

Xiao Yezi sighed and nodded, "Yes, I must not forget Your Highness." ”

Gong Zhenghui fell down again with satisfaction.

"Saying that the house is so carefully furnished, it is indeed very comfortable to live alone, no wonder I have never heard that Bai Ko has the intention of getting married." Gong Zhenghui's eyes rolled around a few times, and he patted the floor with his hand, "By the way, didn't I hear that she saw a new science and technology junior last time?" But the time for only one cup of tea was over, and then the official media came out and said that it didn't work out, what did the two of them talk about in such a short time? That's just enough to see each other's faces clearly, right? ”

"Your Highness, have you been interested in this matter since you were young?" Xiao Yezi was a little surprised, although Gu Yun had already told her to find an opportunity to take eye medicine, but he didn't say that he wanted her to tell His Highness directly.

"Isn't this boring waiting for food, hurry up and tell me about it."

"The man is a new science and technology scholar, and if the servant tells His Highness about this, there will be some suspicion of telling right and wrong."

"Telling right and wrong? Unhappy? This is even more important, say it quickly, say it quickly, Bai Ko looks at the new branch Jinshi to choose a wishful husband for himself is the golden mouth of the saint, the whole capital knows, once you look at each other, you dare to make Bai Ko unhappy, I will clean him up! Gong Zhenghui sat up again, and rolled up his sleeves with teeth and claws.

"Alas, this look, in the end, is to end with Mr. Bai's sentence 'People don't look good, but they think it's beautiful', this is not a maid talking nonsense, the guys in the teahouse can also testify, and the official media, although she was invited by Mr. Bai, she has been talking to the man, but if you ask her, she should still tell the truth."

"Tell me about it, I'll see how shameless it is." Gong Zhenghui waited with interest to listen to the gossip, and even Gonggong Lu turned slightly sideways to look at Xiao Yezi.

Xiao Yezi cleared his throat and described in detail all the details from getting out of the car and entering the teahouse that day, Xiao Huangsun's face twitched when he heard it, and Gonggong Lu's face was not obvious, but there was a little displeasure in his eyes.

"Have you calculated how much the living expenses of this house will cost for a year? Including the cost of raising so many people? After listening to Xiao Yezi's narration, Gong Zhenghui asked a question that seemed incompatible.

"Mr. Bai gave the account room 10,000 taels of silver for living expenses."

Gong Zhenghui's gaze turned to Gonggong Lu, who narrowed his eyes slightly and roughly calculated his mind and nodded.

"It is indeed so much, one hundred and eighty people, a year's monthly silver and the money for eating and drinking Lasa will cost thousands of taels, Bai always eats and drinks alone is not expensive, but it is a common practice for festivals in the New Year, and the cost of interpersonal contacts is also a big head, and the account office has to leave some living money in hand for emergencies, and it is almost necessary to have 10,000 taels of expenses a year."

"10,000 taels, the monthly salary given by the Hanlin Academy to Shu Jishi is only a few taels of silver, just buy a few catties of good tea, a new science and technology jinshi with family support may not be able to get such a large sum of money from the family in a year, not only greedy for the wealth of Bai Ko, but also can't let go of the body to eat soft rice, want to eat soft rice hard, eat really ugly, this kind of virtue is actually a promising future of Shu Jishi, it is really a shame to the face of the students!" Gong Zhenghui snorted angrily and pursed his mouth.

"Your Highness, that person is not good-looking, and his figure is not good, although he is less than twenty-five years old, compared to Mr. Bai's age, he is an old man, the old cow eats tender grass, it is really cold."

Gong Zhenghui suddenly felt a disgusting tremble, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Then, in addition to those two who are farther away from their hometowns, there is also this ugly one, Gu Yun is now the only one left among the four candidate jinshi, you are waiting by your side every day, how about it? Did you find anything interesting? ”

Xiao Yezi narrowed his eyes and only smiled without speaking.

Father-in-law Lu smiled, and rewarded Xiao Ye with a piece of broken silver.

Xiao Yezi quickly thanked the reward and picked up the silver.

"Your Highness, everyone in the family calls Uncle when they see the prince!"

"Yo !!" Gong Zhenghui and Gonggong Lu instantly became energetic, "Bai Ko acquiesced?!" ”

"She didn't correct it anyway."

"So, where are they now? Is marriage expected? ”

"Not so fast."

"What do you mean?"

"It's that Mr. Bai enjoys his current life very much, and he doesn't want to get married yet."

"But everyone in the family is calling uncle."

"Shouting that my uncle has a reward."

"Shouting and playing?!"

"Not really."

"What the hell does that mean?!"

"It's that Mr. Bai enjoys his current life very much, but the prince wants to get married early, and the two are deadlocked."

"Huh?! Can this be stalemate? Isn't marriage the biggest thing in life for a woman? ”

"Your Royal Highness, obviously this article does not apply to Bai Ko, you look at this newly renovated big house, 20,000 taels of silver, you can't live if you get married, Bai always is so careful to spend a penny in half of the person, the good house can not be idle, it is a waste! Waste is a shame! Waste is the biggest crime! ”

Gong Zhenghui and Gonggong Lu both looked sluggish, and after a while they came back to their senses, and the little emperor touched his chin.

"Ye Guogong's Mansion is actually calm? Gu Yun is the heir, he didn't get married early, and the family didn't say a word? Mrs. Gu is not in a hurry? ”

"The prince is the champion of the country, and he has money in his hands, and his marriage family has long been unable to be his master, so he is willing to spend it with Mr. Bai, so it will be consumed."

The completely speechless little emperor nodded helplessly.

"Then let's spend it, maybe we can start a game, and bet on when they can make progress."
