Chapter 400: Spending Money Like Dirt
This is a courtyard with two three-entry courtyards in the east and west, the east is the residence, the west is the flower hall, and there is a place that occupies about two-fifths of the place in the north, which is a garden-style backyard, and the courtyard is full of trees, pavilions and rockeries.
Entering the house is facing the "one-word shadow wall", and to the north through the hanging flower door comes to the east courtyard of the courtyard, copying the verandah, the south room, the north room, each with five rooms; The second courtyard is a room with a verandah, three main rooms, two ear rooms, and three east and west wings; The Sanjin courtyard is a seven-room back cover room.
The west courtyard is also a three-entry courtyard, one into the rockery stacked stone and three open Xuan, the second into the three main houses and three open Xuan, connected by a circle verandah, three into the east and west wings and flat-roofed verandah.
There are also several cellars in the house, and on the north side is a la-er east house, a total of eleven rooms, and a "garage" for horses and carriages, and a street gate directly from the back wall for carriages to enter and exit.
If you compare the Lianfu with the Pingding Guogong Mansion, it is a world of difference, just the area can be a big difference, even compared with the splendid and finely carved mansion that I just saw in the north, it is also a lot inferior.
However, this is the ultimate home that Su Nian wants, spacious and comfortable, but not too big, and can accommodate a few more people in the family.
The place where the people live is not crowded and closed, everyone is in a happy mood, and when Brother Ping grows up, there is also a place for him to marry a daughter-in-law and have children, and he is happy.
After returning to the West in old age, the house can be vacated, and the cycle will start over and over again, and this life is enough.
Su Nian's eyes flashed with longing, this is her goal, although don't look at her all day leisurely and lazy. But there is also a goal, but there is no rush to achieve it. How could such a good house in Renlianfu be sold casually? So it's okay to take your time.
By the way, she still doesn't know why this place is suddenly going to be sold?
Long Hai said. Lord Lian was promoted, promoted to a bachelor in the Hanlin Academy, this is not where Lord Lian lives, just for the ladies in his house to spend a vacation, relax and relax, but with this promotion, he plans to move everyone in the house to the capital, maybe he will not come back in the future.
This is a great opportunity! Su Nian was very willing to take over the house, but she didn't have that much money. If Xiao Ge buys it, if he wants to go back to the capital in the future, can this mansion be sold to himself again?
Su Nian's eyes were rolling like two purple grapes, Xiao Ge understood that she was thinking about it, but what she was thinking about, Xiao Ge didn't want to know.
used to be so close to himself that he almost talked about everything, and there was no distinction between you and me, but now Xiao Ge is not sure. Although Su Nian didn't say it, there was always a faint layer of separation between them, not obvious, but it was really there.
Xiao Ge planned to use his later days to make this barrier disappear. So he was not in a hurry, and asked Yuesong to accompany Long Hai to negotiate the price, and he wanted this mansion.
"Oops. You wait a minute. Su Nian stopped Yue Song and Long Hai and turned his head to Xiao Ge. This is not to buy cabbage, this house must be very expensive. You...... Think again. ”
Xiao Ge laughed, waved at Yue Song and told him to hurry up, and then took Su Nian's hand and walked slowly around the courtyard.
The house is very well maintained, there is almost no need to renovate, the style is also clean and refreshing with a strong bookish atmosphere, Su Nian began to think in his mind as he walked, where is suitable for arranging who to live in, what is still missing, and needs to be added......
Thinking about it, Su Nian was melancholy, this is not her mansion, what is she worried about here.
Long Hai's efficiency is still very fast, mainly because Xiao Ge is not short of money, Yue Song fully understands what he means, we can drive as much as we want, without counteroffering, of course, the speed is extremely fast.
In just two days, everything was done, and the people of Lianfu were already starting to pack up their things when they went to see them, and after the house changed hands, they sped up the speed of picking up and quickly vacated the house.
Long Hai handed over the deed to Xiao Ge, Xiao Ge changed hands to Su Nian, Su Nian looked at the deed in his hand blankly, thinking to himself what does this mean?
Xiao Ge's expression was even more innocent than her, his eyes widened, and he tilted his head slightly, just like a very unreasonable thing to wonder.
However, Su Nian couldn't say anything to refuse, she nodded and put the deed away, "Okay, I'll take it first." ”
Xiao Ge laughed at this time, and didn't pay attention to any "first" and "last" questions, it is not natural for the family to let the lady keep all the belongings of the family.
After the house was bought, Yuesong couldn't stop like a spinning top, Xiao Ge didn't know why he was in a hurry to let him take care of the house, but he was a man, no matter how capable Rao was, he was weak in this regard.
So part of Yue Song's busyness was to be busy asking for instructions in front of Xiao Ge and Su Nian, and he couldn't make up his mind!
At this time, Xiao Ge usually went to see Su Nian with Yuesong, and they didn't know what things to buy inside.
"......, Sango, you just work hard to help with it...... Su Nian couldn't stand it anymore, so let Coral go to accompany Yuesong to buy things, anyway, Xiao Ge let himself make up his mind no matter what, so he just let Coral who understands himself go with the past.
The local tyrant is probably what Xiao Ge is now, he is still the prince of the country, he will never be short of money, just the emperor's reward can make people's eyes red to the point that their hearts beat faster, and they are basically so poor that they only have money left.
So it's not difficult to buy things, buy it when you see the right one, Yuesong executed Xiao Ge's instructions ten out of ten, there is no psychological burden at all, and the good ones are generally expensive, but Yuesong feels that only expensive things can be worthy of his lord and wife.
So after accompanying Yuesong for a day, Coral came to Su Nian with a sad face and asked for a transfer, "Madam, Coral is a daughter born in a poor family, and she can't stand this kind of stimulation......"
Su Nian laughed tremblingly, "That's just right, it's a rare opportunity for you to exercise more, anyway, it's not spending your money, you must resist." ”
Coral went back with a sad face and was shocked, but she was okay, although she had not bought such valuable items, but she had also mixed in the Pingding State Mansion, and she was experienced, but she was a little unaccustomed to keeping a low profile in recent years.
And Pearl and the others were really shocked, when they were bought by Su Nian, they only knew that this family was very easy to get along with, although they did not treat them harshly, and the monthly allowance was also very generous and issued on time, but it was definitely not a rich and noble family.
But now it doesn't seem to be like that, Madame's husband came to the door, not a small appearance, although he didn't say a word, but he was not strict with people, just a little, would he be too generous to them?
The reward is casually silver, and it doesn't matter what, which makes them feel a little unhappy, as if they have obtained ill-gotten gains.
Pearl this child is young, but sincere, secretly ran to Su Nian and told her, the little girl also took out the silver to Su Nian, the little face was panicked, afraid that Su Nian would misunderstand something.
As a result, Su Nian not only did not get angry, but squinted his eyes and laughed, "I'll take it for you, this is an affirmation of you, don't think about it." ”
Pearl breathed a sigh of relief and went back to convey the news to everyone.
Xiao Ge is indeed deliberate, he is very grateful to Pearl for being by Su Nian's side, and can take care of Su Nian instead of himself when he is away, so if it weren't for the fear that the impact would not be good, he would like to send a hard work award to Su Nian's subordinates, but it's better to keep a low profile if you think about it.
"Why are you in such a hurry to get a house? Didn't the people who came with you say they're all going back? It's not like I can't live here for the time being. ”
Su Nian felt that Xiao Ge's hurried behavior was a little strange, or did he feel that the courtyard where he lived now was still congested and wanted to move out quickly?
Xiao Ge raised a finger at her, so he shook his suspicion, with a faint smile on his face, and he looked like he couldn't leak it.
It seems that Xiao Ge is not disgusted, Su Nian is relieved, but her yard is indeed a little smaller, Xiao Ge has nothing to do all day, so he has been hanging around with him, and there is nowhere to go, which is quite pitiful.
However, a few days later, Su Nian found out that there was a reason.
On that day, Su Nian wanted to send Brother Ping out as usual, but Xiao Ge stopped him, Yue Song stepped forward and said, "Madam, I have already sent someone to the academy to take leave for the little master, and the little master doesn't need to go today." ”
Brother Ping is inexplicable, why doesn't he have to go? My mother never let him take leave, and what did she say, as long as she didn't lie on the bed and couldn't get up, she would go under the knife!
"Mother?"
Su Nian also looked at Xiao Ge in confusion, could there be something important?
Soon, something important appeared, to be exact, an important person, Su Nian met an acquaintance, Mr. Lin, who was highly respected.
That surprise can't be described in words, Mr. Lin is already old, he would come to Baihe Town for a long time?
"Mrs. Xiao!" Mr. Lin didn't greet Xiao Ge first when he entered the door, but walked straight towards Su Nian and gave her a deep look.
"What do you mean, sir?" Su Nian hurriedly helped him up, his little heart was pounding, a saint like Mr. Lin was fighting with herself, why was she so weak-hearted?
Mr. Lin insisted on finishing the salute before he slowly spoke, "The old man is thanking you for the people of the Li Dynasty, you have suffered all these years." ”
Su Nian paused, and the smile on his face deepened, "What Mr. said is not right, Su Nian just did what he had to do." ”
It turned out that Mr. Lin was here, and Su Nian felt that Brother Ping really didn't need to go to the academy, and it was much more beneficial to meet such a knowledgeable person than to study in the academy. (To be continued......)
