The first thing Jiang Huaiyu did when he entered Shangjing was to buy a house!

To buy a house in Shangjing, you must first have a clean family background and enough money, and you can't buy anywhere you want to live.

Shangjing is a vast city divided into four districts, with the Imperial Palace and some royal gardens to the north, and a moat separating it from the other three districts, but still located in the middle of the city.

It is also said in several other places that the east of the city is claimed to be a brick thrown over, which can knock down a piece of Shangshu Shilang and the emperor's relatives, especially Wuyi Lane, where only people with extremely powerful positions can live.

Most of the merchants in the west of the city were merchants, and even foreign merchants mostly chose to settle there, because the planning of the west of the city was basically two rows of houses facing each other, with a small courtyard at the back.

Therefore, it can be used as a store to live and do business, and in addition to living people, it is also a good place to play and go shopping.

The south of the city is where ordinary people live, because most of the people who enter the city will pass through here, even though they are all alleys divided into a region, there are still many people who come out to set up stalls, or sell food, or sell some novelties.

Jiang Huaiyu had a familiar idea, and walked to the west of the city, she had to find a dental protection if she wanted to buy a house, there was no intermediary, first, it was difficult to quickly find a house that she wanted, and secondly, if she bought a house in Dayun Country but couldn't protect her teeth, it was still illegal.

After asking a few people, Jiang Huaiyu found a middle-aged woman who looked quite kind.

"Yo, you're going to buy a house, so you're right to look for me!" As soon as the middle-aged woman spoke, she was very festive and enthusiastic: "I don't know where Madame wants to buy a house?" ”

Jiang Huaiyu said with a smile: "Chengnan is good. ”

"The south of the city is good, there is a human touch, there is a good academy near there, Mr. Kaimeng is said to be a great Confucian!" Ya Bao Guan will be obedient, when even smiled and took out a book: "Look at what other conditions are required, I, I will definitely be able to find a satisfactory place for you!" ”

Jiang Huaiyu thought about it for a while, and then spoke: "Don't be too complicated around the people, the loss of the house should not be too serious, don't be a house facing the street, there will be nothing else." ”

Yabao opened the book and flipped through it, and looked at her again: "Do you have any requirements for the size of this mansion?" ”

Even though most of them are ordinary people, they don't have some spare money in their hands, so they buy the surrounding houses and make them into a few houses after some repairs.

"A house with a single courtyard or a house with two entrances and two exits." Jiang Huaiyu thought about making things by himself, and he also had more space.

Yabao looked intently at the book in his hand, and after a while, he said to her with surprise: "Coincidentally, this is a mansion with one or two entrances and two exits, two east and west wings, one study, and this kitchen and a row of inverted rooms where slaves live, the courtyard is open, you look at the picture." ”

As he spoke, he handed the book to Jiang Huaiyu.

Jiang Huaiyu looked at it carefully, this picture was quite simple, but it was very realistic, and the whole mansion was vividly presented in front of her eyes.

It can be seen that the two-in, two-out mansion is very good, sitting north and facing south, not big or small, Jiang Huaiyu also plans to make the sugar bag bigger and live in the future, and it is not suitable to always move after settling down.

"Take me to see it, and I'll settle down when I'm careful." Jiang Huaiyu's fingers tapped the drawing.

Ya Bao Deng smiled and narrowed his eyes, went to the counter and took the key, and led her to the south of the city, which was not too far from the south of the city, but it took some time.

During this period, Yabao was interested in listening to some of Jiang Huaiyu's information, and they did the common problem of this industry, and if they knew what the identity of the guests was, they could know what to recommend to the guests.

After entering Chengnan Avenue, turning into the side alley and crossing the first intersection, you will arrive at your destination.

The location here is not bad, Jiang Huaiyu silently added a few points in his heart, the location is not deep but not close to the street, it will not affect the rest and there will be nothing to call for help and no one will listen.

Yabao opened the door, and after entering, there was a short corridor, and after passing through the shadow wall, he went down the stairs to the courtyard to the side.

You can see the side rooms and the main house on both sides at a glance, and there is a camellia tree in the courtyard, which only grows green leaves at this time, but it also dots this courtyard.

"What do you think of the main room?" Tooth Guard pointed ahead.

Jiang Huaiyu nodded and walked over, like some TV series she had watched, this main room was very atmospheric, but unfortunately the carved patterns were very ordinary, and there was no furniture, which looked a little deserted.

Then I took a look at the kitchen and the inverted room, although there were traces of people living in the entire mansion, but this was also a helpless thing, Jiang Huaiyu didn't care about this, she thought about it and asked, "How much does this mansion cost?" ”

"One hundred and eighty taels of silver!" Yabao immediately read out the price and smiled happily.

At a glance, she knew that a guest like Jiang Huaiyu was basically a sure thing after asking the price, and she was naturally happy when she thought of the commission after the transaction.

Jiang Huaiyu just wanted to try to bargain, but he remembered what kind of place this was, these mansions were basically sold by the government in the tooth shop, and there was no way to bargain with them!

I had to take out a silver ticket of fifty taels and said: "This is a deposit, you write me a note, it's too late to trade, I'll go to the tooth store tomorrow to find you." ”

"Okay!"

Yabao led her back to Yaxing, and the note was stamped, signed and handprinted, and Jiang Huaiyu also left directly to find an inn to live in.

After tossing for a day, the sugar packet and the milk paste she bought were full, and Jiang Huaiyu was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back.

When I arrived at the inn, I first asked for a meal and gobbled it up, and finally soothed my gurgling stomach, and then asked for a bucket of hot water to bathe.

After taking a bath, it is indeed a lot more relaxed, but there is no clean shower gel, I always feel that it is not clean, let alone my hair, how can I feel greasy, Jiang Huaiyu dried his hair, and made up his mind to be the first to make soap and bath beans.

At least she'll have to use it.

took out a silver ticket in the cloth skirt, counting the one hundred and eighty taels that were about to be spent, and now Jiang Huaiyu's property was only three hundred and seventy taels, and she only reacted at this time.

Most of the expenses on the road were because of his surname Qin, and when he returned to Shangjing, he really lost it!

Jiang Huaiyu glanced at the token that showed a corner of the baggage, and silently poked it back, that's it, money can always be earned, she doesn't want to know a person who has too many secrets.

"Gotta save money!"

Deeply reflecting on her ability to spend money, Jiang Huaiyu began to tirelessly recite the poetry of the sugar packet, and recently she remembered several poems in the poetry book, which should be to supplement the prenatal education, or edify the literature of the sugar packet.

After a good night's sleep, I woke up and rushed to the dental store to finalize the handover of the house.

After a busy morning, Jiang Huaiyu was finally able to have a sheltered home in Shangjing, she brought sugar packets, and the two mothers and sons were home.

There are still some formalities to go through when she returns to the dental store, especially when she also introduced the furniture seller to her, Jiang Huaiyu wrote down the name of the local store, smiled and said that she would go to see it, and after getting her title deed, she was about to leave but saw a skinny girl to bring in.

"Hey, why did you drag such a beggar in?"

It's actually polite to say that it's a beggar, and the beggars in Beijing can't find anyone thinner than this girl.

The guy was also very helpless: "This person has just sold himself to bury his father, and when he met the kind-hearted Hu Da businessman and asked his subordinates to send her father to the funeral, she said that she wanted to be a slave and a servant, but Hu Da Shang pulled the goods and prepared to go out of the city, how could he have time to take care of her, so he left a tael of silver and told me to let us feed her for two days, and then find a good person to be a cleaning maid and have a job." ”

When Yabao heard the name of the big merchant Hu, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then he took the silver and sighed: "This girl is hungry like this, but she is not sick, right?" ”

Although the woman's face was covered with black paint, she could still see that her eyes were very bright, and she shook her head: "No." ”

"Okay, let's go to the backyard and boil the pot of water by myself and clean it up before coming out, I've been hungry for a long time, right? Eat some gruel first, don't eat too much and it will be easy to get upset. "The tooth guard seems to be used to this kind of thing, and the instructions are very smooth.

Jiang Huaiyu just wanted to leave, but when she saw the girl's clean and resolute eyes, she paused.

Yabao raised his eyes and saw the master who gave the money neatly, and hurriedly asked, "Madame, is there anything else?" ”

"Just now, after the child is raised, he wants to sign a living deed to be a maid?"

The other party was really thin, and his voice was very clear, Jiang Huaiyu subconsciously used the word child.

Yabao nodded and said: "Yes, she is lucky, she can meet Hu Dashang, otherwise I will never dare to accept her even if I come here!" ”

"In that case, how much does it cost to buy her living deed?"

Jiang Huaiyu thought that she should hire some people to help take care of the mansion by herself, not because of compassion, but because she felt that the girl just now had a grass-like temperament and worked hard to live strongly.

Yabao was surprised, no one would buy this little girl who didn't seem to have eaten meat in March, but it would be a fool not to do a rich business.

"You can take this girl back with three taels of silver!" Yabao never mentioned the silver or two just now, and said with a smile.

Jiang Huaiyu snorted and took out the silver ticket to her: "Take her out, I'll take it back by the way." ”

Although the mansion still needs to be cleaned up, you can sleep on it when you buy a bed first, and you can clean it up slowly.

"Good~"

The tooth guard grabbed the silver ticket and went to the backyard to bring the black girl out.

"Remember, you will serve this lady with all your heart in the future, you know? She's a good person, and she won't do you any wrong! Although Yabao seemed to be admonishing her, he was actually patting her on the back.

The little girl is twenty-eight years old at most, her clean eyes are full of doubts, and she didn't expect that Jiang Huaiyu, who looks soft and bright, would fall in love with her.

Holding her living deed, Jiang Huaiyu said softly: "Come with me." ”

The little girl nodded slightly.

Walking out of the tooth shop, the little girl's dark skin and dirty appearance made many people avoid it, covering her nose and revealing an expression of disgust.

Jiang Huaiyu was a little helpless, so she had to go to the cloth shop to buy clothes that suited her first, and then find a place for the little girl to bathe and change clothes.
