Chapter 24: The Old Mother's Mentality (Recommended Plus Update)

Guo Daqing was stupid.

He always thought that Yan Zhenwu and they would only buy one house, but unexpectedly, as soon as Yan Zhenwu opened his mouth, he would buy both.

Two places are eighty taels, and eighty taels of silver can buy six acres of good land in the first eight taels of silver.

He swallowed his saliva secretly, "Brother Yan, do you mean you buy all of these two houses?" ”

Yan Zhenwu bowed slightly, "Yes, is there any problem?" ”

"No, no." Can Guo Daqing say that there is a problem? People are rich and capricious, so why not buy a few places if they want to?

He brought Yan Zhenwu and others back to his home, and Yan Zhenwu proposed to Guo Lizheng that he wanted to buy land in the village, "... It is better to be close to the village and have easy access to water, and it is best if you go to the field. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Guo Lizheng beckoned to Guo Daqing as he spoke, "You accompany the two poor masters at home, and I will take Brother Yan and a few of them to see the fields." ”

Guo Daqing didn't know much about the field, so Li Zheng could only go on his own.

Fortunately, Meng Zhen's budget was not much left, and the land they could buy was only ten acres, so Li Zheng didn't need to spend too much time taking them around to see the land.

Find a piece of Shangtian that meets Yan Zhenwu's requirements, and then set aside ten acres from it and sell it to Yan Zhenwu and others, this matter is perfectly solved.

Several people returned to the village from the field, and then Yan Zhenwu took Guo Lizheng back to the county to go through the transfer procedures.

With the two officials following, and with the help of the officials Yan Zhenwu was familiar with, Yan Zhenwu and Guo Lizheng quickly made the red deed of the house and the field.

Two houses, Yan Zhenwu according to Meng Zhen's request, respectively let people fall under the names of Meng Zhen and Su Shen, ten acres of land, Meng Zhen also asked Yan Zhenwu to help her land five acres in Su Shen's name.

Meng Zhen had already greeted Su Shen in advance about the house, and considering each other's reputation, Su Shen did not refuse Meng Hao's kindness, but Meng Zhen gave him five acres of farmland, which surprised him very much.

He pinched the deed paper and was silent for a moment, and then simply stuffed the two deed papers of the house and the field back into Meng Hao's hand, "I'll take care of them all for you." I will pay you back the money for the house slowly. ”

Seeing his insistence, Meng Hao hesitated for a moment, but finally took the deed paper back.

She is in charge of it, anyway, she doesn't plan to draw a line with Su Shen and let him take care of himself - as far as Su Shen, a rich young master with basically zero living ability, if she really lets him live alone, Meng Hao estimates that he will starve himself to death in less than half a month.

It is too cruel to starve to death to save her life, and she did everything possible to lure this young man to Yulin Village, so she still has a responsibility for the life and death of this young man.

Meng Zhen, the little girl who didn't realize that she had entered the old mother's mentality, smiled and put away the four deed papers that belonged to her and Su Shen respectively.

Coupled with the tea and silver stuffed into the little officials, the officials, and Guo Lizheng, Meng Zhen spent a total of two hundred and six taels of silver today, and when Yan Zhenwu returned her money bag, Meng Xiaogirl only had less than ten taels of silver left in her hand.

paid for the carriage and let one of the carriages send Guo Lizheng back to the village, and Yan Zhenwu took Meng Zhen, Meng Qi, and Su Shen back to meet Hao Mengyun.

Hao Mengyun did not follow them to Yulin Village today to buy a house and land, she stayed in the county seat and helped Meng Zhen and others buy a lot of daily necessities.

Pillows, bedding, bamboo mats, felts, cloth, needlework, pastries, tea, sugar, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, rice, noodles and vegetables, cooking utensils, tableware, pots and brooms, kang tables, kang cabinets... But whatever Hao Mengyun could think of, she bought all of them for her apprentices.

When Meng Zhen and the others came back, Hao Mengyun was shuttling back and forth in his yard.

She had a few slips in her hand, and on them were all the things she had bought from various shops.

Meng Zhen looked stupid, she walked over, "Master, why did you buy these old things?" ”

Hao Mengyun glanced at her, and that glance could be described as amorous, "Do you think it's so easy to live at home?" Although these things look inconspicuous, they are not good without any of them. ”

Meng Zhen scratched her head, she really didn't worry about these daily trivial matters by herself.

was struggling, so I heard Hao Mengyun ask again: "Have you bought a good house?" ”

"Bought it."

"Then I'll help you get your things to your new home tomorrow."

Hao Mengyun said and began to check the list again, Meng Hao was amused and moved, this was the first time her master was so worried, and she didn't even buy these things in her own house.

Squinting his eyes and glancing slightly at the scorching sun in the sky, which already had a westward trend, Meng Hao turned her head and asked Hao Mengyun with a smile, "Master, have you had lunch?" ”

"Nope." Hao Mengyun wiped her sweat, "I went shopping this morning. ”

Meng Zhen shook her head with a smile, "Then I'm cooking now, so I'll make cold tao (cold noodles), right?" This weather is just right. ”

Hao Mengyun nodded again and again, "This is good, I want to eat peanuts, I want two bowls." ”

Yan Zhenwu also said: "I want four bowls." ”

"I want five bowls." The crazy little Meng Qi followed and shouted.

Su Shen: ... If he says he wants two bowls, will these people dislike his?

Fortunately, Meng Zhen quickly brutally suppressed Xiao Meng Qi's people, "You can only eat one bowl at most." ”

The corners of Su Shen's lips hooked slightly, and he smiled quite unkindly, "Then I will also have two bowls." ”

"Okay." Meng Zhen bowed slightly, and then rolled up her sleeves and entered the stove room.

Before she came over, there was nothing in Hao Mengyun's stove room except seasonings, after all, this girl was a star who would have to be dismantled when cooking, and Yan Zhenwu didn't dare to let her cook by herself.

If it weren't for Yan Zhenwu's occasional use of Hao Mengyun's stove, Meng Zhen estimated that Hao Mengyun wouldn't even be able to prepare the commonly used condiments.

She washed and cut the cucumbers, shallots, coriander, and carrots she had bought before, then took out a few eggs, washed them, and boiled them in a pot, and finally took out the white flour and peanuts.

The noodles were put there to wake up, the hard-boiled eggs were soaked in cold water, and Meng Zhen began to peel the peanut shells and fry the peanuts.

When the peanuts were fried and out of the pan, Meng Zhen peeled the eggs and cut them in half.

With all the preparations made, she began to process the large mass of white flour that had been proofed.

The noodles were cut, boiling water and boiling, and while waiting for the water to boil, Meng Zhen mixed a cold salad with three shreds and a cold spinach.

After the cold dishes were mixed, she took the condiments and began to prepare the sauce.

She prepared two flavors of salty and sour and spicy sauce, Xiao Meng Qi was too young, and Ah Shen was not very spicy, so she specially prepared a salty and fragrant cold sauce for these two people.

"The meal is ready, you can wash your hands and eat." Prepare all the food, Meng Hao shouted with a smile.

Yan Zhenwu and Su Shen immediately washed their hands and came over to help, taking dishes and chopsticks, boiled eggs, fried peanuts and vegetable noodles, cold dishes, noodles, and sauces, the two worked together and quickly put all the food on the table.

Hao Mengyun, who had already completed the inventory, helped Xiao Meng Qi wash his little fat hands, and the two were sitting upright at the table at this time, waiting for the meal.
