Chapter 186: A Strange Thing

"Ouch."

Yun Yao screamed in surprise and quickly came to Mrs. Xu's side: "Auntie, what's wrong?" Isn't Mo sick? ”

Mrs. Xu was about to shake her head, and Yun Yao ordered the girls one after another: "Don't call the doctor quickly, don't call someone quickly, it's stupid......"

Her anxious and worried look fell into Xu's eyes, which frightened Xu's too, and thought that Mrs. Xu was really sick, so she hurried over to take a look.

After a while, Qi Yinzhu came over with Qi Copper Lock and Qi Treasure Box, and the three sisters surrounded Mrs. Xu at once, and Yinzhu grabbed Xu's arm and lifted the person up.

Qi Baobox went over and dragged his legs, and the sisters and sons lifted the person up like this.

While carrying it, Qi Baobox said: "I see that my aunt is not very sick, hurry up and sleep in the house for a while, don't have an accident." ”

Before Xu could react, Qi Baobox pinched Mrs. Xu's ankle and made a hard effort, Xu screamed in pain, and Qi Baobox's face was full of worry: "Oh, it's really not light, hurry, hurry up and find a doctor." ”

Just like that, the Qi sisters carried Mrs. Xu into the room and threw it on the bed, and all of a sudden, Mrs. Xu lay on the bed and turned upside down again, fell upright, and when she lay down again, the whole person in pain kept soothing.

Yinzhu is extremely sorry: "I'm really sorry, our sisters are used to hunting, after all, they are used to doing rough work in the soil, and they have always had no weight in their hands and feet. ”

Qi Baobox said with a smile: "The Xu family is a noble family, and they are also from a family in the past few lifetimes, and they are tired of digging food in the soil, that is, they are dirty in their mouths, such noble people have always been the most good-natured, the most cultivated and open-minded, how can a noble person like Mrs. Xu be like us in general, right?" ”

Dare to be affectionate, the sisters of the Qi family are resentful of Mrs. Xu's embarrassment of Qi Jing. I deliberately want to find a place here.

"You guys." Xu Shi followed, and when he saw Mrs. Xu's appearance, he felt distressed for a while, and glared angrily at the Qi family sisters: "It's so hateful, how can you treat your elders like this?" ”

Yun Yao smiled when she heard this: "What do you mean by this?" What's wrong with us? Do we have anything disrespectful to our aunt? No scolding, no hitting. When my aunt was sick, we hurriedly carried her into the house, and hurried to find a doctor, isn't this enough, what's the matter, we have to cut the flesh and tear our hearts to you. Do you have to be cheap and respect you like a dog? If that's the case, don't you see if your Xu family can afford it? It's just that I can afford it, and my Qi family is not so cheap, unlike some people who are high-faced, who knows what to do behind their backs. ”

The more Yun Yao spoke, the more angry she became, and she sneered again and again: "Don't look at how big your face is, when you go to someone else's house, you have to have the consciousness of a guest, relying on the identity of a relative to dominate the guests, take three pinched four, not to mention our family." You don't want to see anyone's family when you go to it. ”

Speaking of this, Yun Yao turned around and walked out: "Second sister, third sister, eighth sister, since we have a good heart to make people like wolves, what are we doing here, are you disliked, I don't have any serious illness if I want to come to Aunt Xu, even so, we won't stay guests." ”

"This ...... Do we have to lift people out? Yinzhu looked at the copper lock and then at the treasure box and asked.

Yun Yao happened to walk to the door. He didn't reply: "What to lift, people will walk by themselves if they have feet, and once they lift it, they will ask others to abuse our elders and lift it again." Don't give us a name for murder. ”

"Then, Cheng, let's go." Yinzhu pulled the copper lock and dragged the treasure box out, and said to the girl at the door: "Hurry up and pack up and send off guests." ”

A group of people from the Qi family came and walked quickly, which completely made the Xu family dumbfounded, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say when he stood in the room.

Don't look at her like to tune three nests and fours. moved the things of the in-laws' family to his mother's house, as if he was very clever, in fact, this is also because the Yu family is more honest, speaking of which, this Xu family really wants to talk about it, and it is not a little worse than these people in the Qi family.

Seeing the Qi family leave, the girl came to see off the guests, Xu's heart and liver hurt, but there was no way, I had to go over and pick up Mrs. Xu and leave quickly, just a little later, Mrs. Xu fell twice, if she stayed any longer, she might not be able to die.

The mother and daughter were swaggering when they came, and when they left, they hung their heads like defeated roosters.

Qi Baobox hid under an osmanthus tree in the corner of the corner, watched the mother and daughter of the Xu family go out of the courtyard of the Qi family, pursed her lips, snorted and sneered: "Phew, I really don't know how big my face is, when the fourth brother went to the Xu family to intercede, how many benefits were promised, they didn't give any face, and beat the fourth brother out of the door, now it's good, but I really have the face to come to the door to ask for a house, not to mention that there is no house, even if there is, these people also want to go to a half." ”

Later, Qi Baobox thought that Qi Jing had bought a house in Nancheng for her as a dowry, and the house was close to the garden, and the scenery was not too beautiful after it was built, so he immediately laughed again.

Turning around and walking towards his courtyard, Qi Baobox muttered: "I don't know when the house will be built, and when it is built, I have to go over and live for a few days." ”

"What's beautiful?" might as well Qi Baoling stopped her, and Qi Baozhou glanced at Qi Baoling: "What are you talking about beauty, what about your son-in-law's beauty, are you going to Zhao's house again today?" What's the matter, it's not enough to be crooked with Zhao Wu every day? ”

Qi Baoling was ashamed, glared at Qi Baobox, and only said: "The dog can't spit out ivory from his mouth." ”

After saying that, the girl turned around and ran away.

Yun Yao sent away the mother and daughter of the Xu family here, and after a while, Qi Jing asked someone to tell her that she was going out, Yun Yao remembered that Qi Jing said that he would invite some friends from the Ministry of Industry to dinner today, so he asked the tent to send Qi Jing a letter of silver, and called Chang Hao, a little girl who follows Qi Jing on weekdays, to follow, and told Chang Hao to go over to serve Qi Jing.

Qi Jing went out this time, and didn't come back until late at night, and when he came back with a body of alcohol, Yun Yao went over to ask him, he just laughed, and Yun Yao couldn't say anything, so he could only coax him to wash and help him go to bed.

Qi Jing lay on the bed and squinted for a while, and when he opened it again, he was already awake.

He turned his head to look at Yun Yao, reached out and pinched his forehead, and whispered: "Your father and mother have already pawned a house near the official school, and I am afraid that they will live in it in the near future." ”

"Huh?" Yun Yao didn't expect the Yun family to be so neat, and they had already pawned the house and prepared to settle down for a long time after a long time: "So, do they plan to go back?" ”

When she asked this, Yun Yao really had a headache.

Qi Jing nodded: "I definitely don't plan to go back, I asked Chen Guanya, who was looking for a house for them, it turned out that your brother met a nobleman, and that nobleman admired your brother's talent and learning, and wrote a letter of recommendation to him, recommending him to go to the official school to study, in addition, there is a strange thing." ”

"What's the odd thing?" Yun Yao asked.

Qi Jing smiled: "It's the matter of pawning the house, although the house that your brother likes is small, the place is really good, and the house is built well, this house is quite valuable, but your family didn't spend much silver on it, just gave two hundred taels of silver to make a look, you say, what does the family in the pawn house think?" ”

"Two hundred taels of silver?" Yun Yao exclaimed: "What can you buy with two hundred taels of silver near the official school?" I'm afraid I can buy a stable. ”

Speaking of which, although Chang'an City is said to be an inch of land, it is also divided into places.

Just like the Qi family's Ping'an Fang, it is not very expensive here, and the general two-entry and three-entry mansions are only a few thousand taels, and the five-entry mansion of the Qi family only costs tens of thousands of silver.

But the house near the official school is old and expensive.

There are a number of schools near the official school, from the Mongolian school read by children to the official school read by Xiucai, Guozijian is not far from here, plus there are several calligraphy and painting shops, the four treasures of the study, and several famous restaurants, which makes this area extremely popular, naturally, the house is sky-high.

Not to mention the two-entry house, even if one enters the small house, it can't be taken down without a few thousand silver.

Yun Jiadian's exquisite house with two entrances, with furniture and a small garden, only gave people two hundred taels of silver, it was a bit ridiculous, no wonder Qi Jing said it was funny.

"How many years have they been pawning?" Yun Yao asked.

"Five years." Qi Jing stretched out a hand.

"That's weird." Yun Yao couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, it stands to reason that the Yun family has no acquaintances in Chang'an City, but there are no snobbish acquaintances, why does the owner of the house only need so much silver?

Speaking of which, I have to talk about the Great Zhou Dynasty's pawn room.

Speaking of this house, it is different from the rented house in later generations.

The houses of the Great Zhou Dynasty are generally wealthy families, and most of them are families who want to move to live elsewhere, but the earlier houses are not willing to sell, and they are reluctant to keep their families.

As a result, there is the matter of pawning the house, which is about the owner entrusting the house to the people who live in it, which is regarded as a pawn for you, but the pawn house has to pay the pawn, which is equivalent to pressing the money, and generally has to pay one-half of the value of the house itself.

It's similar to pawning things, the head of the household takes the pawn money and leaves, and the people who pawn the house have lived for enough years, and the head of the household will return the pawn money to you when he sees that his house is not damaged, so that the pawn house can live in a good house for several years without spending a penny.

Even so, most people can't afford to pay so much money at once, so there are not too many people who can live in a pawn house.

The Yun family probably wanted to live in a good house for five years without spending money, so they made up their minds to live in a pawn house.

It turned out that the second house was afraid that it would cost thousands of taels of silver to pay the pawn money, and Yun Yao didn't know how much money the Yun family had, but if she wanted to pay the pawn money, there would not be much left.

But this time, I don't know whose face I trusted, but I only had to pay two hundred taels, and the Yun family's life is probably much better.

Yun Yao didn't have a clue after thinking about it, so she simply pushed Qi Jing: "You go and inquire again tomorrow to see what is going on." ”

Qi Jing turned over, and fell asleep with a hum. (To be continued.) )
