Xu Chong's choice of the house at the junction of the West District and the North District was also carefully considered.

There are many wealthy businessmen in the western district, and many officials and yamen in the northern district, and the security of these two districts is undoubtedly the best in the entire Minzhou Prefecture.

Xu Chong is a five-grade official, and it stands to reason that he can buy a house in the North District, but considering that Jiayu is from a small family, he may not be suitable for dealing with those officials and wives; And Chen Jiaxu and Sun's new house is located in the West District, thinking that it is convenient for the two families to come and go, and it is also so that Jiayu can integrate into the new life as soon as possible.

The houses here are all sought-after goods, and Xu Chong also sold this house to him because of his surname "Xu's sake". However, Xu Chong is not willing to accept favors, the silver is given according to 20% more than the market price, even if it is put there, it is said in the past.

The house is not small, but it is a four-way courtyard. The scenery in the courtyard is elegant, the flowing water is curved, the pavilions and pavilions, the corridor waist is back, and the scenery is really one step at a time, and it is dizzying to see.

As soon as Xiao Yu'er and Changqi entered the courtyard, their eyes were full of amazement.

This courtyard should be built according to the scenery of the Jiangnan garden, and it is a style of elegance and elegance, fresh and free. And the courtyard of the strange flowers and rare trees are innumerable, just this way, you can see osmanthus, red maple, kumquat, plum, pine, soft willow and so on; There are also water and stones reflecting each other, and the Taihu Lake stone is exquisitely planted in the courtyard, which is really beautiful, and makes people nostalgic and interesting.

Chen Jiaxu and Sun are familiar with this side, which shows that when the house was bought and renovated, they came here to be busy.

Sun said all this, she saw that Xiao Yu'er was very fond of these, and the sister-in-law was accompanied by her sister-in-law, and the two seemed to forget about the two children, so they took the initiative to come over and explain, "This is still the scenery of the outer courtyard, which is known for its freshness." The scenery of the inner courtyard is more gorgeous, especially Yilan Garden, Tinghexuan, and Sizhuwu, which are all meticulous masterpieces of the craftsmen who designed this house, and the courtyard is like a painting, which makes people reluctant to come out when they are in it. ”

Sun saw that Xiao Yu'er was really interested in these scenery and stones, so he picked out the key points and said some more points. Xiao Yu'er really listened patiently, and there was a lot of joy between his eyebrows.

But Changqi, she didn't think much of this, she just wanted to know where in this house was suitable for exploration, and where was suitable for climbing...... But don't let your sister know about this for the time being, otherwise she will have to whisper in her ear again, and she will be afraid of her sister's tongue.

Soon the people went to their respective courtyards and settled down.

Xu Chong was busy accompanying Chen Jiayu, and he was really big-hearted, but he pointed to the two old people in the house and asked them to go to Yilan Garden to listen to Xiao Yu'er and Changqi, so he left it alone.

Chen Jiayu was stunned, and twisted his waist angrily, but she also just arrived at her new home, and when her eyes were black, she just wanted people to take care of Xiaoyuer and Changqi, and she didn't know where to start.

In the end, I could only respond to what Xu Chong said, and carefully beat the two mothers-in-law, asking them to be good in front of the two girls, if there was negligence, they would not expect the consequences.

After sending all the subordinates away, Chen Jiayu was crooked on the bed in the inner room.

After all the hard work along the way, her body really couldn't hold on. Now my legs and feet are numb, and I need to slow down.

Chen Jiayu was lying on the bed, her eyes couldn't stop looking at the interior decoration, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and the more happy she was in her heart.

This is a serious house, which belongs to him and Xu Chong's first house. Thinking that they will have children here in the next few years, and watching their children grow up, Chen Jiayu sincerely likes this house, this house, and every teacup and stool in this house.

She unconsciously said this, and Xu Chong couldn't help laughing, "I just said in my heart that the way you beat people is more and more like a lady in charge, you are like an ignorant little girl, and you still treat this house as a treasure." It's just a broken house, what is there to say? The house is not small, but it is not as valuable as the 'Chen Mansion' in the capital. The house in the capital is a good house, you wait, when I become an official in Beijing, and then please ask Your Majesty to give me a house built by the Ministry of Industry to your lord. That's the real magnificence, elegance and simplicity. ”

The words are disgusting, but the self-satisfaction in Xu Chong's mouth can be easily heard.

Don't look at how much he put this house in order, but it took a lot of effort to buy it. After that, he asked people to rest, and let people spend the design drawings to revise it, which really took him a lot of effort. Therefore, even if the original mansion was exquisite, but after he spent a lot of money to reorganize, this mansion really became a place where only fairy concubines deserve to live.

Well, Jiayu is the fairy concubine in his eyes.

Chen Jiayu and Xu Chong have been in contact for a long time, and they know that this person's "wrong mouth" stinks. I don't know if my second sister-in-law is muttering to the second brother or someone's words, that is hypocrisy.

She thinks Xu Chong is hypocritical enough, but fortunately, she is an adult and is not as knowledgeable as him.

Chen Jiayu was also aware of the change in her mood at this time, and if Xu Chong said that she was "like a little girl", her face was tense, and she was afraid that she would cry under the quilt when she turned around. She was also quite hypocritical at that time, not only hypocritical but also inferior. But now, a wealthy life has given her confidence, Xu Chong's love for her has given her a spiritual pillar, and the books she has read over the years, the words in her ears have turned into a little light, re-supporting her barren mind, and making her become confident little by little.

Yes, little girl or something, just say it. She knew that Xu Chong was just ridiculing, without any malice, and she would no longer be sensitive to other people's unintentional words, so she couldn't help herself.

Chen Jiayu's mentality has really reversed, she didn't seem to hear the "little maid", but she was laughed at Xu Chong's desire to ask His Majesty to give him a house, "The second brother is a dignified and second-grade governor, and His Majesty has not given a house, you said that you want to mix up a few products, and how much credit do you have to make before you can ask Your Majesty to give you a house?" Anyway, it has to be a good product, right? Come on, that's a bit of a boil, I'm afraid I won't be able to live in the house you asked me to give me for the rest of my life. ”

Xu Chong's face was a little dark, but he resolutely refused to admit that what his daughter-in-law said could come true. Xu Chong, who loves face, quibbled, "The second brother was promoted to the governor of Zhengerpin Liangjiang, and His Majesty wanted to give the house, but the second brother didn't ask for it." ”

Chen Jiayu was curious, "How come?" What does the second brother think? ”

"It's not that I'm afraid of the tree." The most important thing is that the house is big, so don't you invite more people? Finally, Xu Mansion was turned into an iron bucket, didn't this recruit take the initiative to invite all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods into the door?

For the sake of safety, the most important thing is to save trouble, and his second brother took the initiative to resign from the matter of His Majesty's house. However, His Majesty also said that the house will be given sooner or later, and he has picked the house, and he can move as long as his second brother is transferred to the capital......

Sometimes Xu Chong can't help but think that this house is like a carrot that lures a donkey to run forward. If his second brother really wants a mansion on the edge of the imperial city, then he can't take the trouble to solve problems for His Majesty?

exchanging a house for a loyal courtier, this transaction simply can't be replaced, and Emperor Yunwen really made a lot of money.

Chen Jiayu heard Xu Chong's muttering, and couldn't help but say, "The house on the edge of the imperial city can't be bought and sold, it can only be given by His Majesty." Those who can live on the edge of the imperial city are not only the emperor's relatives, but also the ministers of the court and the central government, and His Majesty's henchmen. This is not just a problem of the house, this is obviously a problem of not winning the emperor's favor, and it is a problem of the second uncle's influence in the court. "The house is equal to a bright future, and it is also equal to a high-powered future, using this as bait to hang his second brother to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire for His Majesty, this deal is obviously fair and reasonable, and Tong Su is not bullied. Another person, such as Xu Chong, he wants this good errand, but Emperor Yunwen still dislikes him for not being capable enough and is unwilling to do this deal with him.

Chen Jiayu is so slanderous in her heart, but she is very pure and good on her face. She didn't dare to say what was in her heart, otherwise Xu Chong would have to go violent.

This person can't listen to her say a bad word about him, otherwise he will be angry with you for a few days. That temperament is really like a child who doesn't grow up.

Chen Jiayu and Xu Chong chattered in the main courtyard, and in Yilan Garden, Xiao Yu'er began to place her and Changqi's things.

Changqi still wanted to continue to sleep in the same room with her sister, but Xiao Yu'er was really fed up with her shadowless feet.

There was no way to do it on the boat, and the local sisters had to live together. But Yilan Garden is very large, this is nominally a small courtyard belonging to the inner courtyard, but there are also small three entrances, and there are dozens of large and small rooms, and the two sisters are changing flowers to live, living in one every day, and they can't live in ten days and a half months.

Xiao Yu'er said, "It's the same as us in Tongzhou Mansion, let's live in one room by ourselves." Your room is still next door to me, so don't even think about sneaking out at night. ”

Changqi was not satisfied, "Isn't it fragrant to sleep at night, why do you want to run out?" Running out without sleeping, that's what only naïve children do, how old I am, I won't be so boring. ”

Xiao Yu'er resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

You're a seven-year-old kid who has the confidence to laugh at other people's naïve children?

You know, you sneaked out on the big night last year.

Although you were not caught, the maid in your room [3Q Chinese] reported to your mother the next day that your sleeping shoes were stained with brown mud in the west of the city.

It's also that my mother feels that she hasn't caught the current bad seizure, and what's more, she feels that she is going back to Beijing and is dizzy, and she wants to clean you up slowly. The result is good, my mother later forgot about it, you little girl really didn't think anyone found out, and she still spoke wildly?

Hehe, Xiao Yu'er decided to wake up the maids in Changqi's house at night. This girl is excited every time she goes to a new place, and she won't be willing to go to bed if she doesn't explore the surroundings clearly.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu'er methodically instructed the maids to move Changqi's things to the next room.

As for how to place these things, she doesn't have to worry about it, Changqi has her own aesthetics. Although her aesthetic is equivalent to nothing, her own room, she just comes according to her own preferences. Anyway, even if it hurts her eyes, outsiders can't see it, and she's her own sister, she has long been used to it.

Time always flies quickly when they are busy, and when the little Yuer sisters settle down, a little maid also came over from the main courtyard and invited the two sisters to the main courtyard for dinner.

Xu Chong and Chen Jiayu were already sitting in the flower hall waiting, Xu Chong, who was an elder, still didn't have a bit of an elder style, so he heard him say, "Go back and ask someone to repair a small kitchen in your courtyard, and the two of you can eat in your own courtyard." There are two meanings to this, one is that it is cold, and the children are a little guilty of running back and forth; Another is that he finally took Jiayu back into his nest, this time it was really his nest, and he wanted to live a sweet and greasy two-person world with Jiayu. The two little nieces are too much of a nuisance, so let's stop coming over and make trouble.

Chen Jiayu understood Xu Chong's mind in seconds, and his fingers were a little nervous for a while.

Xu Chong didn't say that on the boat, she was in front of her second sister-in-law, but she clearly said that she would take good care of the two sisters, and specified that they would not even lose a single hair. And now? The words were still in his ears, but Xu Chong turned his face ruthlessly.

If she is the second sister-in-law, if she learns about this, she is afraid that she will not be able to give him two feet. Forget it, the rough work of kicking people is still left to the second brother, and the second brother will not show mercy at that time.

Chen Jiayu wanted to make up for Xu Chong, but the two sisters, Xiaoyuer and Changqi, had already nodded.

Whether they are in Tongzhou or Beijing, they also have their own small courtyards. My mother felt that they were growing up and that they might wake up hungry at night, so she specially built a small kitchen to prepare all kinds of soup and porridge for them every night.

They also find it more convenient to have a small kitchen in the courtyard, not only to eat when they are hungry, but also to let the cook cook something they like at any time. It's really cold again, and it's really sinful to run to the main courtyard three times a day, so let's eat it in the kitchen.

The two sisters nodded happily, but let Chen Jiayu do the words on their lips, and they didn't know whether to say it or not.

Xiao Yu'er saw her aunt's entanglement, so she smiled and comforted her aunt, "Don't worry that we misunderstood the third uncle, we also know who the third uncle is." He also felt sorry for us, so he didn't want us to run back and forth. "As for disliking the two sisters and getting in the way, don't say it, the third uncle doesn't want to be embarrassed, and the third aunt still wants it.

The sisters happily left after dinner, and Chen Jiayu took Xu Chong's hand and told him again. What to pay attention to, what to pay attention to, what to pay attention to the two nieces to be careful and gentle, Xu Chong said a lawsuit. His tenderness and sweetness are all given to her, so can she still share it for her niece?

Again, don't you see if his two nieces need his careful and gentle care?

He's not like that!

I'm afraid that he is really thoughtful to Xiao Yu'er and Changqi, and the two children should be furious in their hearts. Maybe he secretly speculated about what kind of moth he, the third uncle, was going to do.
