Chapter 152: Collision
After Jing entered the door, his hands were also frozen and stiff.
Rui Niang immediately got off the kang and handed a small hand stove to Jing's: "Auntie, warm your hands." β
Jing smiled, gently touched Rui Niang's head, and said, "Rui Niang is really filial." β
Ling Qingyun stood aside and smiled, looking at her mother and sister, feeling very warm in her heart.
If she had a father with a slightly better personality, or if her father was not so powerful that he could force her mother to death, maybe she and Lu Xuan could grow up smoothly and warmly like their mother, right?
Thinking of this, a little sadness flashed in her heart, but it quickly disappeared.
The past is gone, and sadness has no meaning.
Happiness is rare now, and you should enjoy it, and it won't be long before you have such days.
Ling Qingyun smiled and didn't think about it anymore.
The maid helped the two sisters to put away the needlework basket, and the kang became neat.
Rui Niang snuggled in Jing's arms.
Ling Qingyun and Chen Qiniang sat opposite Jing's.
Chen Qiniang told the Jing family what Fang had just said to Ling Qingyun: "The house is waiting for Xianfang"
When she said this, Jing was slightly surprised.
"Waiting for the Virtuous Place?" Jing asked Chen Qiniang rhetorically, "That's very expensive, right?" β
Waiting for Xianfang is close to Yanping Gate, only three streets away from the West Market, which is one of the more prosperous squares.
Like that kind of bustling big fang, there are at least thousands of residents, restaurants and shops in the square, tea shops and green buildings, all available. Even if it is a night curfew, the square is still very lively, singing every night, a real prosperous and wealthy place.
That's what the capital should look like.
And Zhaochifang is very lonely, like the countryside.
The price of the house in Zhixian Fang is at least three times that of Zhaochi Fang. A courtyard like the Jin State Mansion can be sold for six hundred taels, which is very good; However, a mansion of the same size, if there are no more than 2,000 taels in Zhixianfang, it is difficult to take.
Two thousand taels, that's a huge amount of money, catching up with the expenses of hundreds of people in the entire Jin State Mansion for two or three years.
Jing was reluctant.
"It's not very expensive." Chen Qiniang said with a smile, "If we give cash, 1,900 taels will do." Mother, I went to see the house, the wood of the doors and windows, and the wood of the beams are all new, and it has only been built for three years.
I don't just like this, but also the best point: next to the house, there is a small house with two entrances, which is an old house. And they shall sell them together, and give six hundred pieces of silver.
If the house is bought and repaired, it will not be a problem to sell it for 2,000 taels in the future. But they don't sell it alone, they have to go with the new house. The sum of the two houses is only two thousand and five taels of silver. β
The owner was in a hurry to sell the house, and he also knew that he had just experienced a famine and the market was not good. If you sell them separately, you don't know how long it will be delayed, and you may not be able to sell them at a high price.
Their family's old house is already very dilapidated, and it will cost four or five hundred taels of silver to repair it, and there are not many people who are willing to buy it.
Therefore, they tied the two houses together and sold them, but they had to sell them in cash, otherwise they would not have sold them so cheaply.
When Jing heard this, his heart moved slightly.
Chen Qiniang has seen a business opportunity.
She now has money in hand and is willing to invest in buying a house, and selling it in the future is another income.
"Two houses, two thousand five hundred taels, it's really a cheap thing that can't be found with a lantern." Jing said, "There is no disaster in the house, right?" β
She thought it was someone dead in the house, etc.
Chen Qiniang said: "No." It was Lord Chen of Taichang Temple who was relegated to the place. All his family members followed, so he had to sell the house for relocation. β
Jing listened and nodded.
Such a good thing, if there is no one in the tooth shop, will not be able to touch.
"You discuss with Qingcheng and go to see the house more. If it's really suitable, buy it. Jing smiled.
Chen Qiniang smiled and said, "Yes." Mother, I'll go with Qingcheng tomorrow to have a look? β
Jing nodded.
In the evening, Ling Qingcheng went home, and Chen Qiniang told him about it. When he heard this, his eyes lit up and he was very happy.
"Mother, I think I can buy it." Ling Qingcheng said to Jing.
He was simply completely biased towards his daughter-in-law, and took his daughter-in-law's words as a holy decree. Whatever Chen Qiniang said, he immediately responded.
Jing Shi smiled and said, "You guys can do it." Didn't your sister give you a sum of money to buy saplings? If you don't have enough money, use that money first. β
"No, when I don't have any money in the future, I'll ask my mother for it." Chen Qiniang said with a low chuckle.
Jing didn't say anything more.
Ling Qingyun looked at her brother and sister-in-law, and couldn't help but be happy in her heart. His brother had a very good marriage, happy and fulfilling.
The sister-in-law is also capable and well-educated, and she respects her mother-in-law and sister-in-law and uncles, and she is a rare capable.
In the evening, Ling Qingyun took the time to tell her mother that the second aunt came to test Rui Niang today: "Rui Niang is simple-minded, I'm really afraid that she will be tested by the second aunt one day." β
When Jing Shi heard this, his face immediately tensed.
After pondering for a moment, Jing got up and said, "I'll go to the three-room room, you can take Rui Niang to sleep early." β
Jing called a few stout mothers-in-law, took the two maids, and went to the third room, which should have discussed the matter of Rui Niang with the third uncle and third aunt.
The second room is afraid that he has already thought about it, but he has not caught any handle for the time being.
Jing was furious.
Ling Qingyun took Rui Niang away from her Jinghua Garden and took her to sleep. Rui Niang was very happy and fell asleep next to Ling Qingyun.
Rui Niang's hair has grown out, she can be combed in a bun, her hair is thick and black, and she is very beautiful.
The next day, it snowed again, and everywhere it was white, and the bare treetops were wrapped in a layer of crystal snow.
After breakfast, Ling Qingyun was thinking about going out, but the second aunt's family sent a small servant to tell SΓΉ Jing's family: "The old lady is going back to the house, and our wife asked a few ladies and old men to pick it up." β
Jing's eyes flashed a little irritation.
However, if you don't pick it up this time, you'll have to waste your tongue again.
"Go back to your wife, and we'll go." Jing's Road.
It's another snowy day, the same as the last time everyone from the Jin Kingdom Mansion moved back.
Today's snow seems to be bigger, and the sky is scattered like catkins, and the sky is full of silver. It's just that the trees are sparse, the fragrance is scattered, and the winter is sorrowful.
The cornices and tiles are covered with snow, which is extremely crystalline.
Ling Qingyun originally planned to go out. But at this time, it was not easy for her to go away, otherwise the old lady and the second aunt would have more gossip, and her mother would be angry again.
She followed the family and went to Cheng's house to pick up the old lady.
The uncle of the Cheng family is still in prison, so the Cheng family is full of birds, and there is not even a footprint on the snow.
The Ling family came with four carriages, the Jing family took Chen Qiniang and Ling Qingyun, the second uncle and the second aunt took San Lang, and the third aunt took their two daughters.
Ling Qingcheng went to Zongxue, the third uncle went to Yamen, and only Ling Qingtong and Rui Niang did not come when they were idle at home.
The people stopped the carriage at the gate and entered.
However, the old lady of the Cheng family did not show up to receive them.
The second aunt was also angry, and when they met, they were not angry, and said to everyone: "Do you still know that the ancestor is here?" A family is not a child or grandchild! β
Rao is the second uncle and second aunt, and he was also scolded by her for being so scolding and making him feel irritable.
"That's it, I've never seen you so unfilial!" The second daughter of the second aunt, the second girl Cheng followed her mother's words, "My grandmother has lived in our house for so long, and you don't come to pick it up, especially the eldest aunt."
Ling Qingyun immediately wanted to stand up and speak.
Seeing this, Jing grabbed Ling Qingyun's hand tightly, gave her a look, and forbade her to say more.
Today, Jing's didn't want to quarrel, he just wanted to quickly take the old lady back and go to other things.
Cheng Xuan is still in prison, and the mother and daughter of the Cheng family are all angry, venting their anger on Jing's body.
Cheng Er's girl came to the ground and trained Jing's again.
"Still leaving?" After hearing this, Jing still smiled and said, "If you leave, pack up the old lady's things." β
It took the old lady a long time to come out.
She was hungry and lost a lot of weight.
The Cheng family's food has been getting worse and worse recently, and her daughter and granddaughter have lost patience with her, so she thought of going home.
She heard her second aunt and grandmother say many times that Ling Qingcheng's daughter-in-law opened a grain shop and made a fortune, and her family ate better.
Seeing the children and grandchildren, all of them full of energy, the old lady was slightly angry: "Sure enough, you ate well, but you didn't come to pick me up"
Moreover, her third son was cute, and he didn't come to sue her, which made her even more angry.
"Of course." Aunt Cheng said.
When the old lady heard this, she had the intention of driving her away, and she was also angry and went back to the Jin State Mansion.
As soon as she got home, the old lady began to count Jing's family: "You know that your uncle is in prison, and you don't use your mother's relationship to bail your uncle out!" β
A matter of course.
It seems that Jing's uncle didn't come out, what a big mistake was made! The old lady and her daughter had no idea that it would be a dead end for her uncle to bail out now.
The crowd bowed their heads.
Only Ling Qingyun said: "Grandmother, we begged King Ji, and this saved the second uncle's life, otherwise the second uncle would be dragged to the entrance of the vegetable market like everyone else!" β
The old lady was immediately furious, pointed at Ling Qingyun and said to Jing, "Where is this rule?" Grandmother spoke, she interjected at a girl's house, and cursed her uncle! You've been busy discrediting your ancestors lately, and you don't even know how to raise your daughter? β
Jing stood and lowered her head, hearing the old lady's words, she didn't apologize immediately, but thought about something.
"How can my mother discredit her ancestors?" Ling Qingyun continued, ignoring the old lady's anger, "Grandmother still makes it clear, give us some clear instructions for our grandchildren, and you can be regarded as raising us!" β
The old lady was so angry that she almost turned her back.
"Listen to these tricky words, does she still have a grandmother in her eyes?" The old lady said angrily, not looking at Ling Qingyun, but only said to Jing's, "Come on, give me a palm!" β
Everyone looked at each other.
The old lady's maids also stood in place in embarrassment, not daring to step forward to make a move.
"Yes, mother, how can I discredit my ancestors, you give us a clear sign. Okay, how can you hit a child? Jing finally spoke, his eyes sharp, and he looked at the old lady.
The old lady was stunned.
It's been decades, and Jing's has confronted her for the first time!
When the old lady came back to her senses, she was a little proud in her heart: look, Jing's contradicted her, she can pretend to be sick and sue Jing's unfilial piety!
Sure enough, the old lady rolled her eyes and "passed out".
Chickens and dogs are jumping at home.
"I can't live this day anymore." Jing's, the second aunt, and the third aunt all of a sudden, they all thought so.
Jing's felt that he couldn't go on, and the second and third aunts felt that Jing's couldn't bear it anymore.
Everyone has their own thoughts.
