The old housekeeper led Du Xiaomeng to a relatively quiet inner street, stopped in front of a small courtyard, and stepped forward to knock on the door.

An old woman with fluffy hair in a lower appearance came out and opened the door. When she saw the old butler outside the door, the old woman's lifeless old face immediately burst into laughter, and respectfully welcomed them into the house.

Entering the house, Du Xiaomeng's eyes were not idle to look at the surrounding environment.

This is a small but elegant house, with a hollow-shaped design, divided into two back two courtyards. The living room and kitchen are in the front yard and the three rooms are in the backyard. The front yard is planted with a row of green bamboos, and the back yard has a small pond in the middle of the pond, surrounded by a circle of flowers and plants.

The design of the small pool was very much in line with Du Xiaomeng's heart, and she liked it very much when she saw it at first sight.

The old woman took her and the old housekeeper around the house carefully, the house was refreshing and open, and Du Xiaomeng felt more satisfied the more she looked at it, but her face did not show it.

After looking at the house, the old woman smiled and asked, "How?" Looking at it, do you feel satisfied? ”

The old butler said, "It looks all right." Miss Du, what do you think? ”

Du Xiaomeng nodded and said, "It's not bad." She raised her eyes to look at the old woman, "Auntie, how can this house be sold?" ”

The old woman replied, "Twelve taels of silver." ”

The price is reasonable to Du Xiaomeng's expectations, no, it should be said that the price is so cheap that it makes people feel a little incredible. She went to inquire about housing prices before, the land here in the capital is expensive, and the housing prices are also expensive, not to mention the houses in the capital, and the houses in the suburbs outside the city are also sold for twenty or thirty taels at every turn. The current house is not in the suburbs outside the city, and it is not a deviation from the prosperous section of the city, so it is said that it only sells for twelve taels of silver?

Du Xiaomeng wondered in her heart, secretly wondering if this could be a murderous mansion where a murder had occurred?

The old woman saw her surprise and muttered: "If it weren't for the old lady and their desire to go back to their hometown to retire, this house would not only be sold for this price." My lord and wife are getting old and have no children to inherit the property, so it is not much use for this house to be empty here, and I will have to find someone to repair it after a long time. The lord and the lady thought of selling this house cheaply because they were troublesome. ”

The old housekeeper also took over and said: "The owner of this house is a very kind old couple, and they have a little friendship with the old man, and they will not ask for more Miss Du at this price." ”

Du Xiaomeng heard the meaning of the old housekeeper's words. can buy such a good house in the capital at such a great price, in the final analysis, people are throwing this big bargain out for the sake of the face of the Rui Wangfu.

Twelve taels can buy a house, which is a temptation that Du Xiaomeng can't refuse. So, she quickly discussed the details with the old woman who guarded the house, and said that she would come back tomorrow, and pay the money and the keys in one hand.

Walking out of the house, the old housekeeper seemed to suddenly remember and said to Du Xiaomeng: "By the way, Miss Xiaomeng, the young lady of the Lin family and her husband have already entered the palace to do things. Miss Lin was arranged to go to the courtyard of the little county lord, if you want to visit her, you can do it at any time. ”

"Really?" Du Xiaomeng came out happily from her heart, but she faintly felt that there was something wrong with her in a trance, how did she think that the point in the old housekeeper's words was not to tell her that Lin Xinru went to Rui Wangfu on an errand, but to tell her that she could go to Rui Wangfu whenever she wanted? Looking at the old butler's face, I saw that he had a calm face, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Du Xiaomeng smiled secretly in her heart, maybe she was thinking too much about herself.

After the house was settled, and she heard the good news about Lin Xinru and Xiao Gongzi, Du Xiaomeng's mood was so good that she was like the sun rising to the middle of the sky, and she didn't think about other irrelevant things.

After following the old housekeeper out for a long time, it was already dark when she returned to the General's Mansion, but she was still in time for dinner. When she arrived at the dining room, everyone had already arrived, and when she came in, Zhan Qi's scrutinizing gaze swept over first, and she lowered her head a little weakly and pretended not to see it, and walked quickly to her seat and sat down.

Why does her look a little sneaky? Is this little girl doing some small action behind her back? Zhan Qi had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it in front of his father. He subconsciously touched it in his arms, and when he gave her something, he would ask by the way.
