Xiao Man looked at his father like this, and he couldn't bear it.

Zhang Xiuqin wants the deed, I don't know if it is to seek a guarantee, or if she was provoked by Su Xiaoling, this is still a mystery.

However, Su Qi didn't want to let himself buy a house, if it was just because of Zhang Xiuqin and Su Xiaoling's selfishness, and gave up his comfortable life, it would be too unworthy.

"Dad, even if Zhang Xiuqin has that thought, wouldn't you just give her the deed?" Xiao Man lowered his voice and asked with a frown.

Su Qi sulked his head, and his voice was also muffled, "Forget it, don't talk about this anymore." You just come back for a few days, I just hope you can be well, stay with me, walk around, just don't mention it. ”

Xiao Man sighed, staring at the stone table in a daze, not knowing what to do next.

"Father-in-law, there are many things that you can't completely escape from the past without talking about them or mentioning them." Lu Li spoke out, with a bit of innate composure.

According to Zhang Xiuqin and Su Xiaoling's behavior, even if they don't have this house, they will find a way to get something else, even if it is a chicken or a fish, they want to take it into their own hands.

Therefore, even if there is no such house, as long as Xiaoman and Lu Li are still there, they will always find a way to get something from Su Qi or Xiaoman.

Su Qi finally raised his head, he put the wine glass on the stone table, and the bottom of the glass touched the stone table, making a crisp sound. He squinted at Lu Li, his voice a little hoarse, "Then you say, what should I do?" Is it really necessary to reconcile with Zhang Xiuqin? ”

Speaking of this, Xiaoman remembered that Su Xiaoling cried and complained to herself before, saying that Su Qi was going to reconcile with Zhang Xiuqin, but at that time she didn't understand how her father's personality could say such a thing.

Now that the matter is revealed, she also suddenly realizes that Su Qi must have seen through the conspiracy between her and Zhang Xiuqin, and her helpless words in anger and disappointment.

She was thinking about it, when Lu Li over there said again: "Father-in-law, do you remember that Su Xiaoling still owes Xiaoman two hundred taels of silver?" “

"I know." Su Qi nodded.

When Su Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin went to Beijing, they were visiting relatives on the surface, but in fact they were asking for money, he didn't agree with them at the time, but there was no way, their feet grew on their own bodies, and when he found out, Su Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin had already set off to Beijing.

When they returned, they had two hundred taels of silver in their hands, but at the same time, they had an extra IOU.

Su Qi breathed a sigh of relief at that time, feeling that Xiaoman, the kid, was quite smart, at least he didn't let these two people take advantage of them in vain.

However, even when he recalled these things, Su Qi still frowned, not understanding what Lu Li meant.

But Xiao Man on the side suddenly figured it out, she opened her eyes, "You mean, you want Xiao Ling to take these two hundred taels of silver out to buy a house?" ”

"To be precise, it was us and Su Xiaoling who paid for a house together." Lu Li raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile; "I've inquired and bought a house in Taoyuan County, about five hundred taels in total. The two hundred taels should be Xiaoling's money, and we will get the remaining three hundred taels, as for the deed and title deed, ......"

Su Qi and Xiao Man both looked at Lu Li intently, looking forward to his next words.

But Lu Li abruptly threw the question to Xiao Man, "You say, what should we do with this deed?" ”

"All to Dad?" Xiao Man raised his eyebrows and asked tentatively.

Before Lu Li could speak, Su Qi waved his hand again and again, "No, no, I can't hold the deed, it's too ... It's too precious for me to know how to keep it. ”

Lu Li pursed his lips and smiled, "The deed is handed over to my father-in-law, and the title deed is handed over to Aunt Zhang, so that you each take a copy, even if Aunt Zhang sells the deed that day, this land is still yours." ”

"Then what if Xiaoling refuses to pay?" Xiao Man scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and said regretfully: "I forgot to bring an IOU when I went out this time, Xiaoling didn't admit it, or didn't trust me, what should I do?" ”

The IOU was one in each of the two hands, and Xiao Man didn't bring it, in case Xiao Ling suspected that Xiao Man would ask for money from him again, wouldn't he be unwilling to take out the two hundred taels of silver?

Hearing Xiaoman's words, Lu Li immediately said: "That's easy to do, if Xiaoling doesn't believe it, you can just write her a receipt, so that she doesn't have anything suspicious." ”

After speaking, he looked sideways at Su Qi and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, do you think it's okay to do this?" ”

"In this way, you don't have to worry about what Aunt Zhang will do in the future, and even if you really want to live in Bishui Village all the time, this is no problem, but Xiaoman and I rarely come back in the future, so I want to take advantage of this time to come back and do everything."

"If you have your own place to live in Taoyuan County, it will be more convenient, and wherever you choose to live, you will be fully screened by yourself."

This really can't find anything wrong, and it can effectively prevent Zhang Xiuqin from thinking crookedly, which is very suitable.

Su Qi frowned and thought for a while.

He rejected Xiaoman's kindness before, firstly, because he was already familiar with Bishui Village, even though he didn't have to grow crops all year round now, but after living here for so many years, he still wanted to continue to live.

Second, it is also because of the fear of Zhang Xiuqin and Su Xiaoling, Xiaoling's head has become more and more bright since she started business, Su Qi couldn't detect the other party's true thoughts for a while, for fear that she would do things that hurt others and benefit herself, which is why he didn't want Xiaoman to pay.

But now that Lu Li's method has solved a difficulty, coupled with Lu Li's persuasion, it seems that he really has nothing to continue to be stubborn.

"Dad," Xiao Man couldn't hold back, and asked out loud: "Now that everything has been resolved, what else do you have to hesitate about?" ”

You must know that she and Lu Li don't have much time to stay in Bishui Village.

"Do what you say." Although he said this, he looked very helpless, but Su Qi couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and he couldn't hide his joy.

Lu Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, "Okay, then do what we discussed, but tomorrow there is a family on the mountainside who wants to get married, and Xiaoman and I have to participate." Father-in-law, I bother you to wait one more day. ”

Su Qi waved his hand, not caring much, "You can do whatever you have to do, don't delay for me." ”

While they were having lunch, the three of them finally discussed the affairs of the house.

The prefect should arrive in a few days, first go to participate in the marriage of the young man on the mountainside, and then go to talk about Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin, and then you can deal with the county. Next, it is to buy a house, prepare the bags for the return trip, and calculate it carefully, except for this afternoon, they have not stopped at all, and they can enjoy the time of life.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Su Qi went to the house to rest, while Lu Li took Xiao Man's hand and returned to the mountainside.

Back at the cabin, Xiao Man sat on the chair in a daze.

"I've only been back for a few days, but I have so much to do." Lu Li walked in and bolted the door, "Xiaoman, do you feel very tired and bored?" ”

Xiao Man, who was slumped in the chair, stretched his arms, looked sideways at the man, and said very seriously: "To be honest, as long as I think about doing so many things next, I am so tired and tired." ”

"But," Xiao Man turned around, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "as long as I think of having to be with you every moment for the next few days, I suddenly feel that I don't seem to be so tired." ”

After saying that, she smiled softly, and her eyebrows and eyes were curved into crescents.

Lu Li couldn't help but smile, and suddenly felt that the fatigue in his body had dissipated.

The two spent the last idle afternoon, taking a lunch break, accompanying Su Qi to take care of the flowers and plants, cooking, watching the sunset, and the day passed so plainly.

The next day, the two and Su Qi went to attend the marriage on the mountainside together, and they were lively all day long, and they didn't return home until the evening.

I rested in a hurry, and got up again the next day, preparing to go to the city to discuss the specifics of buying a house with Xiaoling.

As Xiao Man expected, they really hit a nail in Xiao Ling's place. Because Xiaoling, who was warm and kind a few days ago, has returned to her original appearance.

"Why should I pay for it? Do you think it's easy for me to make money? Su Xiaoling stood in the middle of the room with her waist crossed, stretched out her index finger and pointed at everyone, spitting stars flying: "You have also seen it, my mother-in-law's house has not been decorated, and my house has nothing but a bed!" In this case, are you embarrassed to let me pay back? ”

She walked up to Su Xiaoman, and her voice suddenly rose eight degrees, "I tell you, it's impossible!" ”

Xiao Man retreated slightly, so as to avoid Su Xiaoling's steady stream of spitting, and she said softly: "Xiao Ling, we didn't mean that." ”

"So what do you mean? Seeing that my business here is good, I have bought a new house, and my life is getting better and better, you can't look past it, right? You have to let me go back to my old life, right? Su Xiaoman, do you think that any of us are the same as you, and it will cost hundreds of taels of silver as soon as we make a move? We're not! Su Xiaoling was extremely excited, her face was flushed, her eyebrows were high, her mouth was open and harmonious, and she couldn't stop at all.

The room was so quiet that no one made a sound.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoling became more and more arrogant, she slapped the table suddenly, and after causing everyone to be shocked, she shouted loudly: "I'll leave the words here today, let me pay back the money, but not now!" As for asking me to pay for a house, that's even more impossible! ”

"That house is for my father and mother to live in, you keep saying that you are filial to your mother, are you so filial?" Xiao Man got up and asked with a frown.

"Huh!" Su Xiaoling sneered, hugged her chest and looked at her, "Su Xiaoman, I'm married, I'm out of the Su family, do you know what it means to be married?" Do you understand?! I am no longer the Su family, and I want to pay for the house to buy a house for the Su family, and the house deed and title deed cannot be in my hands yet, you dream about it! ”

After speaking, Su Xiaoling snorted coldly and threw her sleeves away.
