Regarding this question of the Xie family, Xie Jinkun did not explain much. He just said that he had discussed this matter with Xie Pu, and Xie Pu was very much in favor of it.

Although Sister Zhang Qiao's family is very enthusiastic, the conditions in the west courtyard are still too poor, a few people crowd into a room, and the abandoned garden outside the door has been breeding mosquitoes since the weather has warmed. In the past, when there was no way, the Xie family would not care, but now that the Xie family has gone to Beijing, and there is no shortage of money in their hands, they can't really let this group of old and weak women and children continue to live in a simple environment, right?

Old lady Xie Zeshan thinks that as the head of the Xie family, everyone has gone to the capital, and the female dependents and juniors of the clan still have to live in the homes of outsiders and rely on others to support them, which will inevitably hurt his face too much, so he insists on finding a decent place to live for his nephew's family.

When he said this, Xie Pu respected him very much, so naturally he would not have any objections.

Xie Pu nodded, and everyone in the Xie family had no choice but to comply.

Wen learned from Xie Jinkun that the house he found was not bought, but rented, and when he only rented it for two months for the time being, he thought he had found the answer and said to the others: "The Cao family swallowed our Xie family's property before, and it must have been swallowed up with the house. When the house was built, the Cao family put a lot of thought into it, and now they are going to remarry, and most of them are reluctant to have a house, right? If the Cao family is cheeky, even if they know that the old man is safe and clear, they will not easily spit out the things they swallowed, then they will return the house and property, but I am afraid that it will take time. Let's stay in the rented house for a while, and then wait for the master to come home. ”

Everyone thought that this guess was quite reliable, so they didn't ask any more.

Wen went to ask Mrs. Xie to visit her new home, but Mrs. Xie refused and locked herself in her room without showing up: "I have an old illness today and I am not feeling well, so I won't go out, so you can go." In fact, if the house is not good, there is no need to toss it in vain. Anyway, it won't be long before we'll be able to go back to our house. ”

Mrs. Xie's old illness was about to be committed once every three days, and Wen Shi did not panic, and responded softly, so he took his son Xie Jinzhi, and then brought Aunt Dajin and Xie Huizhi, and went with Xie Jinkun to visit the new house.

Half a day later, they returned to Li's house and seemed quite satisfied with the new house.

Aunt Daikin was the most active and introduced everyone to the situation of the new residence.

The temporarily rented place is naturally not as luxurious as the Xie family, it is just a two-entry house, but there is an advantage, that is, there are enough rooms. Because the house is two roads and two entrances, a total of four courtyards, except for one courtyard is a living room, kitchen, study, guest rooms and other public spaces, the remaining three courtyards, each is a pattern of two rows of three rooms in the north and south, a total of 18 rooms. The Xie family has ten old and weak women and children, each of whom has a room, and they can also vacate a clean room, and even hire a few girls and mothers-in-law, they can live there.

Even if Xie Pu needs to settle down in this house after he is released from prison, there is no pressure at all.

Xie Jinkun has agreed to lend the maid and mother-in-law in the family, and also helped find a tooth man with a reputation in Gongyuan Street, and he can hire another person at any time.

Aunt Dajin excitedly gave everyone Amway's new house, looking like she was eager to move over immediately. She has been pampered for more than ten years, and she has been nested in the west courtyard of the Li family for most of the month, and several people are crowded into a room, which really suffocates her.

In fact, there is only Aunt Dajin who is suffocated? I heard that the conditions of the new house are not bad, and the Li house is beaten in all aspects, and the girl can be called again, and the Xie family is excited.

As soon as Wen gave the order, everyone immediately began to pack up their things and strive to move into their new residence as soon as possible.

But after packing up, cleaning up, they found that they went out of the house and entered the door of the Li family wearing only one dress, but now more than half a month has passed, everyone has bought a few sets of changing clothes, as well as various daily necessities, the ladies have added small ornaments, handkerchiefs, sachets, and facial grease and lip grease to maintain the skin, and a few boys have pens, ink, paper, inkstones, books and other things, which are packed with more than one burden.

The crowd fell silent. This is all the help of Sister Zhang Qiao's family to them.

Wen felt that since they were going to move out, they could no longer owe Sister Zhang Qiao the silver, so they took out the twenty taels of silver tickets that Xie Mulin had privately stuffed into her, plus the fifty taels of her pawned jewelry, and a few pastries and medicinal recipes written down by Xie Mulin and stuffed them to Sister Zhang Qiao.

Sister Zhang Qiao wanted to refuse, so she said: "You refuse to accept these things, so how can I feel at ease?" You and I have been a servant for many years, and you know my temperament. If you can't live a good life because you have helped our family, will I be able to live a good life? Take it! There are comings and goings, and it is a long-term truth, otherwise, you don't have to come to see me again in the future! ”

Sister Zhang Qiao's heart was moved, and her eyes were red: "My wife is very good to me, and she gives a generous dowry when she gets married. I didn't spend any of this money indiscriminately, so I had a lot of things on hand. Although these days, the family's expenses are a bit large, but it is not so painful. After moving to a new house, my wife buys things and furniture, and buys grain and oil every day, which one does not cost money? If the wife has silver in her hand, she should use it on the blade. Since my money was given by my wife, it is also appropriate for my wife to use it. My family has not reached the point where I can't afford to eat, so how can I ask for my wife's money again? When the lord is released from prison safely, the official is reinstated, and the family's property is returned to the lord and wife, what is that bit of silver to the lord and wife? When the time comes, if my wife wants to reward me with a thousand children and eight hundred, I will never refuse! ”

Generally, Mrs. Li also helped persuade Wen to take back the silver. She noticed that the family's expenses were large, but her daily life was not greatly affected, and the eldest grandson instead followed the young master of the Xie family, Xie Hanzhi, to learn a few words of the "Three Character Classic", reciting it in front of people every day, very fluent, many people praised him for being smart, and he would definitely be successful when he grew up. Mrs. Li felt more and more that it was the right decision to take in the Xie family. Anyway, the Xie family is only temporarily down, and it won't be long before it will develop again, and when the time comes, is she still afraid that she won't be able to earn back?

Seeing that Mrs. Li was helping to speak, Wen's tone was not as resolute as before. The Xie family is indeed short of money now, even if there is a helping hand from the elders of the sect, she can't ask people for money for everything. She was originally worried that Sister Zhang Qiao would spend a lot of money to support their family, and she would be blamed by her mother-in-law, and if Sister Zhang Qiao's family was harmed, it would be bad, so she proposed to pay back the money. Now that Mrs. Li is so well aware of the righteousness, the Xie family is indeed in difficulty, and the Wen family no longer insists, but at the same time, she has also made a decision in her heart that when the property of the second house is returned to her, even if the property on the other side of the big house has not been returned, she will repay Sister Zhang Qiao's family.

Wen took back the silver taels, but still left the recipe. She persuaded Sister Zhang Qiao: "These things are all things that Sister Zhen'er used to read in the books she collected at home, write them down silently, sell them to shops outside, and exchange them for some medicine money, which is not a unique secret recipe." If you need it, you can sell it for silver, and keep it for your own home to eat. ”

Sister Zhang Qiao hesitated for a moment, but still accepted it with a smile: "Then I will dip the girl's light again." ”

The former master and servant of the Wen family and Sister Zhang Qiao were saying goodbye, and everyone in the Xie family was also busy packing up their things and preparing to move, who knew that at this time, Mrs. Xie announced a shocking news to everyone.

She's not moving.

She doesn't go to live in a new house. She wants to stay in the Li family. Her old man was very happy to live in Li's house, so she didn't leave!
