Xi Li wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, retreated out of Buzhuang, and went to find the owner of the Li Mansion on that street.

I bought it at a price of five hundred taels, posted a notice, and returned to the village with the title deed.

Gu Ling had obviously made it clear to the shopkeeper, this house was looking for a buyer, why did he go to the cloth village of Yiyi again?

After walking all the way, tired and sweaty, I really couldn't do it, I looked back at Xiao Er, who was still in good spirits, and used my hand as a fan to dispel the heat, and said: "Xiao Er, you go to Buzhuang and ask, how much silver can you buy this house back?" ”

"Yes, miss," Xiao Er bowed and ran back without stopping.

"Miss," Xiao Yu bowed and said, "Is there something unknown about the slave?" ”

"You say." Gu Ling found a tea stall and sat down, asked for ordinary tea, looked at Xiaoyu who wanted to speak and stopped, and asked, "If you have something to say, don't be awkward." ”

"The shop is gone, along with those objects, what will Miss do in the future?"

Gu Ling had a headache after hearing this, this Nizi is really, if she can have half of Xiao'er, then she won't be able to hear this sentence.

"Didn't I say go with the flow? If I ran to the door of the shop that had been reduced to ashes and cried and cursed, would the shop be restored to its original state? Or did the objects come to me intact? ”

Xiaoyu knew that she was clumsy, which angered Miss, and when she wanted to kneel down to plead guilty, she was stopped by Miss.

"Xiaoyu," Gu Ling gave a cold look, if this Xiaoyu knelt down so headless and brainless on the street, then she would be convinced.

Xiao Yu immediately stood there, helpless, bowed her head and said nothing.

Gu Ling couldn't, and replied coldly: "You either find her master elsewhere, or learn etiquette with Xiao Er, what to ask and what to say, or what to do, you have to know in your heart." ”

"Yes, miss." Xiao Yu gave a salute and bowed his head and was silent.

Xiao Er came to Buzhuang again and asked the shopkeeper, "Old shopkeeper, ...... the house."

"Oh!" Xi Li pretended to suddenly realize and said with a smile: "The head of the house! I can't wait, so I will transfer this house to me, I don't need this house, if Miss Gu doesn't mind, three hundred taels is enough. ”

When he said this, his tongue trembled, and he was two hundred taels short! His monthly money for three months!

"That's right, shopkeeper, can you come with me now, my young lady is waiting at the door of that house!" Xiao Er smiled, but after seeing the old shopkeeper's sad face, she said, "The shopkeeper? ”

Xi Li pinched himself, and suddenly smiled again, and said, "Okay, okay." ”

Xi Li really carried stones and smashed his feet, and he couldn't say what he was suffering from, so he followed the Xiao Er girl to the door of the Li Mansion on Yishun Street, saw Gu Ling, and said with a smile: "Miss Gu, now I am the head of this Li Mansion, as long as I go to the mansion and pass the official seal, this house is yours." ”

Gu Ling had already drunk a full amount of water, and when he heard this, he said, "How much silver can you say?" In a blink of an eye, he looked back at Xiao Er.

Xiao Er stepped forward and smiled: "Miss Hui, three hundred taels is enough." ”

"That's it." Gu Ling instantly felt that his purse was deflated again.

Gu Ling looked at the big red seal seal, not happy or worried, took the key from the hand of Xi Li, and immediately opened the door, the invisible is a mansion, just when he wanted to admire, Xi left the mouth.

"This mansion is a little smaller than the mansion, although the sparrows are small, Miss Gu, everything in this courtyard is carefully arranged by the head of the Li Mansion, if you have something you don't like, you can change it."

Xiao Er and Xiao Yu pushed open the door, and the scenes inside were introduced one by one, Gu Ling sorted out the words of Xi Li just now, without saying a word, and walked into the house step by step, as soon as he entered the door, he could clearly see that the brick and stone paving, the blue brick and tile walls, and the doors and windows of the house were new.

On both sides there are uneven green plants that have not been pruned regularly, and the pink and purple double-petaled hibiscus can be seen everywhere, which is also in the flowering period at this time, and the layers of petals are swaying with the wind and falling the fallen flowers that have withered.

I looked at this house, all of them were good pear wood, which was consistent with the contract, but I was puzzled that I could really start with three hundred taels, thinking that it was the shopkeeper who went to the Cloth Village to find it, could it be someone who intervened sideways?

looked back at Xi Li, who came with him, as if he wanted to see some fame.

Xi Li was furious by Gu Ling, his heart was weak, he coughed lightly, and said: "I am an old acquaintance with that Li Weng, but I can't find a buyer for a long time, so I lowered the price and transferred it to me, and posted a notice, so that the person with a heart went to the Cloth Village to find me, but I didn't think it would be you, Miss." ”

He added, "Since Miss has no doubts, then I will take my leave." ”

"Slow down and don't send".

When the seat was far away, Xiao Er and Xiao Yu closed the mahogany door and came to find the young lady.

Gu Ling took the contract and read it carefully, and the three main houses roughly described, also all had kang beds for heating in winter, a study, a storeroom, an independent kitchen, two side rooms in the east and west, a lake full of lotus flowers and water lilies, and a pavilion in the center of the lake.

I also glanced at the courtyard roughly, and then walked to another garden, where the fragrance and coolness of the wind broke the hot breath.

Thinking that there was not even a table or chair, and even the pots and pans in the kitchen had been cleaned, he couldn't help but hold his forehead, looked at Xiao Er Xiaoyu who came over, took out the purse on his waist, handed it to Xiao Er, and said, "Go buy some things and come back." ”

looked at Xiao Yu, who was still bowing his head and saying nothing on the side, and said coldly: "You can go with it!" ”

"Yes, miss." Xiaoyu and Xiao'er went out to shop together.

Gu Ling went to the garden alone, entered the lake pavilion, and saw the blooming lotus flowers, a breeze blew to make people feel extremely cool, and the lake surface was also covered with layers of ripples. The budding lotus flower secretly poked its head out of the water, and some turquoise lotus seeds were like emeralds inlaid on the lotus canopy. In the distance, koi fish hide under lotus leaves and play leisurely.

The lotus leaves crowded one after another are like big green discs. Put it on the blue waves, like layers of green waves, like pieces of jade. Beautiful lotus flower, the lotus leaf next to it made two small green umbrellas for it. The beautiful lotus flower has red fluttering petals, like a rouge-coated face, layer upon layer, and in the middle is a small yellow lotus canopy. The lotus canopy is yellow with white in the middle, and the white species is green, like ice bullies about to melt, all the colors are mixed together.

The otherworldly temperament all reveals the true colors of "water hibiscus".

The red and white patterns of the koi fish are embellished to form a beautiful pattern, as if hearing the footsteps of Gu Ling, and the koi fish swim around in the water gracefully, their tails swinging with the water, and the bubbles are revealed one after another.

Gu Ling squatted down, raised her hand to move the water, and the white and red koi came to her fingers, as if kissing her hand, and swam under the lotus leaf with its tail.

The water lilies are petite and delicate, like the shy woman hiding under the wide lotus leaves.

I raised my eyes and saw the weeping willows in the distance, swaying with the wind, and the sword blades slid on the water surface, making the water surface ripple again and again.

Sitting on the railing, looking at the cloudless sky, I closed my eyes and recuperated.

Enjoying the cool breeze and unconsciously falling asleep.

In the evening, two open carriages stopped at the door of Li's house, and Xiao Er hired a small servant who made groceries, and moved those pots and pans, wooden tables and chairs, quilts and quilts, large and small objects into the courtyard.

Closed the door, plugged in the latch, and took Xiaoyu to find the young lady.

Seeing that the young lady was sleeping soundly against the railing in the lake pavilion, Xiao Er stepped forward to support the young lady who was about to fall, and called softly: "Miss." ”

Gu Ling was worried, and when he closed his eyes and sobered up, he looked at Xiao Er and said, "You bought them all?" ”

"Yes, judging from the current situation, the slave maid just bought some more ordinary tables, chairs and benches, the quilt is medium, and the pots and pans are still the same as before." Xiao Er helped Gu Ling up, gave a blessing, and said with a smile: "They have all moved into the courtyard, just wait for the young lady to arrange it." ”

"Let's go," Gu Ling got up, looked at Xiao Yu who bowed his head and was silent next to him, and said slowly: "Xiao Yu, holding your head high and being a man is your biggest advantage, no one will pity you because of your bowing head, on the contrary, you happen to be the laughing stock of those people after dinner." ”

Gu Ling paused, raised his hand and patted her shoulder slightly, and said with a smile: "Even if you sell yourself under my door, do your essential work, do your best yourself, and don't treat others badly or live up to your original intention." ”

Xiaoyu looked up and saw the smile of the young lady, as well as the calmness of Sister Xiao'er next to her, she replied with a smile: "The slave understands."

Oh, yes! She signed a deed of sale, and did not sell her original intention, and if she served Miss well, she might be able to be like Sister Xiao'er, who can arrange big and small things handily, and can also get the favor of Miss.

Gu Ling looked at the pile of things and took a broom into the east room.
