Xiao Nuan was not surprised at all when she heard that the Chen family was going to sell the Sijin courtyard on West Street. The yard had been empty, and if it wasn't sold, it would have long cobwebs, but she was curious about what the Chen family could sell for at what price.

In that big courtyard, the old lady of the Zhan family gave five thousand taels to Chen Zumo. At the beginning, Chen Zumo returned to his hometown in fine clothes, and he had a huge amount of money to organize the wedding according to his father-in-law's wishes, so after Chen Zumo bought the yard, he spent a lot of effort to repair it. He spent a lot of money to buy a rockery stone setting that met the taste of the literati, Xiao Nuan saw the stone, only felt uncomfortable, didn't see any taste, and also repaired a study full of exquisite and so on. Xiao Nuan in the study has also seen it, and it is really well repaired, so the father and son of the Chen family often stay inside, and the old man Chen also fell down there and couldn't afford to get sick.

To repair the house, it took a few hundred taels of silver, plus the five thousand taels to buy the house, and the expenses spent on maintaining the house in recent years.

Although the development momentum of Ji County has been good in the past two years, and the house is also rising, Xiao Nuan estimates that the Chen family's yard will never be sold back. Because when Mrs. Zhan sold it to Chen Zumo, she just hugged the meaning of venting for Xiao Nuan, and the price was raised a little. Now that the Chen family is in such a situation, selling the house will be even more expensive.

Sure enough, after Chen Zhong went to the tooth shop that bought and sold the house and said that he wanted to sell the yard for 6,500 taels, the two tooth shops refused, and gave a maximum offer of 4,000 taels. According to the market of that courtyard, four thousand taels is definitely underestimated, but Yaxing said very clearly, "That courtyard, even four thousand taels, may not be able to sell." ”

Chen Zhong questioned the reason, and the people in Yaxing had words, "First, the courtyard has been uninhabited for more than a year, and the popularity has been dispersed, and the second is that the Zhan family who built the courtyard has failed, and the Chen family who bought the courtyard has failed...... Buying a house is to live, and living is to be comfortable. Our tooth shop is not a hammer deal, even if we sell it to outsiders at a high price, and turn around and listen clearly, we must not come back and smash the signboard of the little old man? ”

Chen Zumo listened to Yaxing's words and gritted his teeth with hatred. The house is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is because of Chen Xiaonuan! Everyone in Jixian County knows that he doesn't deal with Xiao Nuan, who is willing to take over his yard and offend Xiao Nuan! This dead girl suppresses him everywhere!

"It's not for sale! This yard is kept, and after my son glorifies his ancestors, it is definitely not this price to make a sale! Chen Zumo snorted angrily.

Chen Zhong was silent, the young master didn't know where he was now, and it would take twenty or thirty years for him to glorify his ancestors. This courtyard has been empty for decades, hasn't it become a haunted house? When someone buys a yard, the house will have to be demolished and rebuilt, and it will not be sold at a high price. Unless the young master can win the champion in the future.

But like Madame, it is better to expect the young master to take the top prize, than to expect the second girl to come......

Chen Zumo was talking angrily, and when he was about to say four thousand taels for four thousand taels, Pi Shi sighed and said, "Son, how much did Xiaocao's mother spend to buy a yard in the capital?" ”

Seeing that his son was silent, Pi Shi stared at Chen Zhong with triangular eyes. Chen Zhong had to reply, "Eighteen thousand taels." ”

"How many?"

"Sanjin, but it is in the capital where every inch of land is valuable, the house is spacious and square, and there is a small garden in it, so it is worth going to this home. If our yard is also in the capital, it will cost 30,000 taels. "Chen Zhong tried his best to save face for the master, no matter how big the mansion in Jixian County is, can it compare to the capital?

Pi Shi sighed again, "Son, my mother has found someone to calculate, the Qin family is blessed in life, and the family is prosperous." Look at her now, the yard of 18,000 taels will be bought when she says she will buy it, this is not what Wangcai is. Since she left our house, we haven't been in line. ”

Chen Zumo was most annoyed by the Qin family, "It was my mother who tried her best to persuade her son to divorce her, why did you say such things again!" ”

Pi Shi smiled, "My mother also listened to other people's gossip at that time, saying that Yuyuan has a royal nobility and a better life, isn't it?" I don't know that this is bluffing, she entered the door of our house, and our family is not as good as day by day! You see, she has been in the door for two years, and she only gave birth to a girl for you, and her mother still hasn't hugged her grandson. ”

Hearing the old lady say this, Chen Zhong only felt a pain in his back, for fear that the lady would hear it and whip him.

"Mother is cautious, if she hears this, what will she think?" Chen Zumo frowned, in his eyes, even if Chai Yuyuan was not good, she was several times stronger than the Qin family, "If the mother is fine, she will bring more Xiaomian, this child is too arrogant by her mother." ”

If Xiaomian doesn't teach it well, he is afraid that he will be a Chai Yuyuan when he grows up, Chen Zumo wanted to teach it himself, but when he heard Xiaomian crying, he felt annoyed.

Pi Shi exhaled through his nose, "I still bring it, my mother can't even see her a few times!" Whoever gives birth to a girl will teach! Xiao Nuan and Xiao Cao were both brought by the Qin family themselves. are all the seeds of the Chen family, why can Xiaocao's mother bring the child to the queen mother and the saint to see her, she Chai Yuyuan taught her daughter and even her own grandmother! ”

Mother's recent attitude towards these two girls has become more and more strange, Chen Zumo's brows are getting tighter and tighter, "Xiaomian is young and ignorant, so is Xiaonuan and Xiaocao?" Are they willing to recognize you and honor you? ”

Pi said calmly, "Even if they are wrong, most of this fault is on us, in good conscience, we have really not done anything to make these two children better in the past three years, especially you as a father." Besides, with the current situation of the two of us, it would be too stupid for us not to reconcile with Xiaonuan and Xiaocao. Son, they are your blood and bones, what unsolvable grievances can there be between father and daughter? As long as we treat them sincerely, they will come back sooner or later. ”

Those two girls hated him to death, how could they come back. Besides, King He and King Sheng are not fellow believers, and King Sheng has never taken him as a father-in-law in his eyes, so he and Chen Xiaonuan are best old and dead, how can there be other results.

Chen Zumo looked at his mother, his mother has never been profitable, and now she is like a different person, if she says that she has no intentions, Chen Zumo will definitely not believe it, "Did someone tell you anything?" Or maybe you are like this, so you are like this? ”

Pi Shi immediately looked serious, "Is my mother that kind of person?" ”

You're not, who's or? If this is not the case, how could my father see you unpleasantly and live in a separate room with you early. Chen Zumo stood up, "You can do anything with them, just don't get involved, and you will never grovel in front of them!" ”

Seeing that his son's attitude had eased, Pi Shi smiled like a flower, "Cheng." Let's sell the house in the city and buy a place in Nanshan Pass to build a workshop to make money, right? The house is put away, but it is really wasted. ”

Building a workshop in Nanshan Pass? Chen Zumo frowned, he didn't know how to do general affairs, and he lost money when he built a workshop, and from the perspective of the past two years, Chai Yuyuan didn't learn this ability. Chen Zumo said, "When it comes to livelihood, my son has her own plans, and my mother only needs to care for the elderly with peace of mind, and don't let my son worry about being distracted." ”

The husband died from the son, and Pi Shi happily agreed, and did not move this abacus again. Anyway, the Nanshan Pass will be hers in the future, and she is not in a hurry at this time.

Chen Zumo couldn't bear to sell the house for 4,000 taels, but no one cared about it, so he had to drop the price again and again, and when it fell to 3,500 taels, no one inquired. And the person who inquired was actually the wife of Lu Qiyuan, the magistrate of Ji County.
