Chapter 575: Cannon Fodder Cousin Sixteen Through the Village Girl
After a long journey of more than a month and almost two months, Su Qingni's family of four finally arrived in the capital. Su Qingni settled Su Laosan and Li's Su Qingshi in the inn, although Su Qingni spent a lot of money to buy a carriage for the family along the way, and it was not fast when he was in a hurry, but after more than a month, the three of them were too tired to walk.
Su Qingni booked a room for them, and the three of them went back to the room to rest.
Su Qingni has internal strength to protect her body and is in good spirits, so she went out to understand the capital, and by the way, she found a Chinese to rent a house.
Unsure whether Su Laosan would stay in the capital after the examination, the Su family decided to rent a house first and not buy a house for the time being.
The capital is very lively, much more lively than the county seat, but under the lively appearance is the darkness and people's livelihood difficulties that cannot be hidden. However, compared to other places in the capital, the people in the capital are living well, at least most of them have food. Unlike other places, the people are already struggling to make a living.
When the Su family was on the road, they passed by a place where many people were forced to go up the mountain to become robbers and bandits. When the Su family was walking on the mountain road, they encountered several mountain bandits who ran out to rob them, but they were all beaten away by Su Qingni.
Su Qingshi saw that his eldest brother was so majestic, and clamored to follow Su Qingni to learn skills. Riding in a carriage to read a book hurt his eyes along the way, so Su Qingni didn't let the child study, so he promised the child to teach him martial arts, and let the child practice internal skills to pass the time.
After such a trip, Su Qingni found that this world was not very similar to the Tang Dynasty in the later years of Tang Xuanzong, but more like the last years of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, with frequent disasters in various places, serious corruption among officials, and officials forcing the people to rebel. This should not be too far from the chaos in the world.
Su Qingni thought about it while strolling around the capital.
Her speed was fast, and it took more than an hour to visit the entire capital, of course, the area where the palace and those powerful people were located, Su Qingni did not go to visit.
Su Qingni found a dental shop, found a Chinese person, and asked the Chinese person to introduce a house to him. The Chinese listened to Su Qingni's request and took her to see a few houses, and Su Qingni chose one.
The location of this house is good, not far from the Gongyuan, and the location is not close to the street, the environment is quiet, suitable for Su Laosan to study at home.
However, the house price is not cheap, and the rent of other houses is twice as expensive as this house for ten or two months.
Su Qingni didn't care about the money, she didn't have the money to make it, she happily set the house, paid two months' rent to the landlord, and gave the Chinese an intermediary fee, and returned to the inn with the signed rental agreement.
Two hours have passed, and Su Laosan and the three of them have rested enough, so they went downstairs to the inn hall to wait for Su Qingni. Seeing him come back, he immediately called Xiao Er to prepare a meal.
Su Qingni walked to the three of them and sat down, took out the rental agreement and handed it to Su Laosan, and told the three of them about renting the house.
The Li family felt heartache when he heard that the rent was twenty taels of silver per month, and Su Laosan had no concept about it, he only felt that Su Qingni's rented place was good, and praised Su Qingni for his pass.
Lee: "......"
Okay, both father and son said okay, and she will admit it. Wasn't it twenty taels of silver, and when he left the village, he gave him five hundred denarii. She now has a thousand taels of silver on hand, and twenty taels is nothing......
Hey, my heart still hurts.
After eating, everyone went to the street together, strolled around at will, and when it was dark, everyone returned to the inn.
As the night passed, everyone left the inn and went to the rented house.
When I arrived at the rented house, Li looked inside and out, and expressed satisfaction, although it was more expensive, but the house was really good, blue bricks and red tiles, strong and spacious, in addition to the hall to entertain guests, there were four rooms, two sons could live in one room, and there was one more room for Su Laosan to make a study.
The yard is also quite large, and you can grow some vegetables and fruits in it, which can save the cost of buying vegetables.
Su Qingni asked Li and Su Laosan Su Qingshi to clean up the house, and she went out to buy daily necessities and food to eat. Su Qingni bought two full carriages of things and came back, so that the family of four finally settled down in the capital.
Su Laosan had a quiet environment to study, and he studied hard in the study every day, striving to read more books before trying again.
Su Qingni counted the money in his hand, and then thought about the prices in the capital, and felt that he, a Taoist master, had to go out of the rivers and lakes again.
Su Qingni told the Li family about this, and it happened that Su Laosan also heard it. Regarding the fact that his own money was obtained by his son pretending to be a Taoist fortune-teller, Su Laosan did not dwell on it for long before accepting it calmly. It is not money obtained by crooked ways, they spend it with peace of mind. As for supporting the family with his son...... When he is admitted to the Jinshi and becomes an official, he can support his own family.
Su Laosan only stared at Su Qingni and covered his vest, so as not to be discovered by others, so as not to bring trouble to the Su family himself.
Su Qingni nodded in understanding.
Half a month after Aijing City settled down, Su Qingni changed into Taoist clothes and went out. However, there are many nobles in the capital, and it is a little unclassy to wear ordinary Taoist robes, so Su Qingni changed into the Taoist robe that Li Wenyuan gave her as a gift, put on a jade crown, and held a jade dust, and appeared on the streets of the capital with a fairy spirit.
Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people. There are many rich and bored people in the capital, and after a while, someone found Su Qingni.
Su Qingni quoted directly: "Two hundred taels is counted as one hexagram, not two prices." ”
Maybe it's her appearance that scares people, although many people think that the price is too high, but some people feel that since they are high, it is natural to have a high price, so some people took out two hundred taels of silver for Su Qingni to measure the words.
Su Qingni pointed to the person who gave the money, and left with two hundred taels of silver.
Tomorrow confirms what he said, his fame is out, and the person who sends him money will come up, and the hexagram will not be two hundred taels at that time.
Sure enough, when Su Qingni reappeared the next day, the person who wanted to tell her fortune surrounded her. Su Qingni insisted on only counting three trigrams every day, and disappeared immediately after the calculation. This led to her reappearing later, and the hexagram money given by the person who asked her to tell the hexagram was already a thousand taels and one hexagram.
Su Qingni's reputation has also spread, especially in the circle of rich and noble. And someone, who was already the concubine of the third prince, heard the rumor, and the tea bowl in his hand fell to the ground and fell to pieces.
"Qiu Wen, what's wrong with you?" the third prince asked a certain woman who was out of shape suspiciously.
