Chunying listened to Hu Fei's words. Didn't jump up almost immediately.

Her house?! Hu Fei is not joking, right?!

She quickly glanced at Shi'er, then pulled Hu Fei up and walked to the wall, and asked in a low voice, "Are you confused?" If your name is written on the deed, how did it become my house? Besides, our family is a child, these things are in hand, if you call the upper authorities to know, you can't keep them, what are you spending this money for?! ”

Hu Fei smiled and patted her hand gently, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I'm not confused." I know the situation of your family now, it is not easy to buy a property, but I bought this house with the money you deposited with me, and it is your family's property. Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu and your family of three are crowded in this small courtyard with the Wang family, you also think it is very inconvenient, right? The son of the Wang family lives in someone else's house, although he is a relative, but after a long time, it will also cause complaints, so it is better for your family to move out and live in another place. You can be more comfortable, and the Wang family is also comfortable. If you want Xiaohu, you can also send a letter to Brother Lu and take Xiaohu over for a few days, wouldn't it be cheaper for two sides? ”

After thinking about it, Chunying felt that it made sense, although she was good with Shi'er and got along well with the Wang family, but the two families lived in a small courtyard for a long time, and quarrels were inevitable. From her personal point of view, living in a room with Shi'er is nothing, she has long been used to it, but sleeping in the same narrow bed is really not comfortable, presumably Shi'er feels the same way, right?

She couldn't help but glance at Shi'er, but saw the other party walking out with a small cloth bag, glanced at them, pouted, and walked out. She hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Shi'er stopped and turned around, raising the cloth bag: "Sister-in-law Zhang asked me to make new clothes for her two children this morning, and I agreed, I will go to her house to do it." Don't bother! ”

Chunying's face turned red when she heard this, and she said curtly: "Which one said you disturbed us......"

Shi'er couldn't hold back a smile: "I didn't mention 'you', you thought so yourself!" Catching a glimpse of Hu Fei at himself, he turned his head and snickered for a while, then turned back and said, "That's it, and spare you!" I want to go over and see my two children, and I like to make red and green clothes for my children the most! And just pull some muslin, make a large batch, do whatever style you like, people are not picky! With that, he snorted softly and walked away with his head held high.

As soon as Chunying heard her words, she knew that she was satirizing a few words sent by the third young master to the Wang family two days ago, and she also felt funny, looked back at Hu Fei, and continued the previous topic: "It's okay to move out and live, but there is one point, since the house was bought with my money, it's okay, but the ownership of this house is very problematic." We are the children of a family, and the property is nominally owned by the owner, so if it is known that we have bought the property. If you sue your wife, you will still be confiscated. ”

Hu Fei thought for a while: "Is this...... You can discuss with Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu, you can write the deed in the names of your sister and brother-in-law, then you don't have to worry about it, right? ”

Chunying thought of the two yards that her father bought, and nodded, but she was a little twisted: "Where is my father...... You have to say it well, or else he will think that you paid for it...... He will definitely be angry and refuse to move over...... "My father has already mentioned this issue to her, don't take the money and property given by Hu Fei, so as not to misunderstand the innocence between her and him." She also hinted to Hu Fei, so he would buy some worthless little things to please her. Real estate is a very valuable thing, and you must make the facts clear!

But then, Chunying quickly thought that she hadn't told her father about the money yet! I couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat from my weak heart - she always seemed to forget that this money existed......

Hu Fei looked at her expression carefully and asked softly, "Do you want to see the house?" ”

Chunying was a little hesitant, she wanted to go, but she was afraid that she would like it after seeing it, but if her father didn't agree, the disappointment would be doubled, so she said, "Let's wait for my father and mother to go and see it together...... What kind of house is it? ”

"It's actually quite ordinary." Hu Fei smiled faintly, "It's no different from the houses of ordinary people in this village, there are three rooms in total, two bright and one dark, it has been some years, the white powder on the wall is peeling, and the roof is also a little broken, but as long as you clean up a little, you can live very comfortably." The yard is quite big. There is a large open space behind the house, half of which is planted with mulberry trees, and there are two vegetable patches in the corner of the courtyard, but they have long been abandoned. If Aunt Lu has the leisure to pick up, she can also grow some melons and vegetables to play. ”

Chunying listened with a little yearning: "Sounds like this, it seems very good?" Who bought it, you're asking? How will that man sell you? "Most of the people on this village live here, and usually no one sells their houses, right?

Hu Fei smiled: "You forgot? Yesterday, when Mrs. Peng came to see her daughter's grandson, didn't she mention that the family that lived opposite her, surnamed Ou, and her son worked as a runner in a tavern in the town. His house was no longer needed, so I bought it. ”

Is it really such a coincidence? Chun Ying glanced at him, and saw that Hu Fei had been smiling all the time, and there was nothing unusual at all, so she glanced at him: "I don't care, anyway...... As long as you are serious about buying someone's house! "Sixty taels of silver to buy a small farm yard is also a fair price in the rural areas around the capital.

Hu Fei just laughed. Put the deed in his sleeve: "Don't worry, with you watching, is it possible that I dare to make the means fail?" Even if I dare, there's no reason to do it in front of you? He glanced at Chun Ying meaningfully.

Chunying bit her lip, raised her hand and patted him, and couldn't help laughing, and said after laughing: "Speaking of which, although our family of three will live more comfortably if we move out as a family, we will be honest...... We don't know when we'll be able to go back to the city, and if we live in this house for less than a year and a half. Isn't it a waste? "But if you live for a year and a half, it will be too sad!

Hu Fei smiled: "You may not have a good life in this village, you have been here for nearly ten days, and you also know the people in the village, but you can find that in addition to planting mulberry trees and grain, what income do they have?" ”

As soon as she said this, Chunying came to her senses: "Why not?!" I heard Mrs. Peng say that there is a big village nearby, and there is no water source in the village, and it just so happens that there is a river running through the boundary between us and it, so the people in the village pay a monthly fee to get water from the river for irrigation. This money was collected by Steward Cao, and it was divided with the Zhao and Zeng families who supervised the work, and no one in the house knew! ”

Hu Fei smiled: "This is just a small amount of money, haven't you heard of anything in the forest east of Zhuangzi?" ”

"The woods to the east?" Chunying was a little puzzled, "I only know that the avenue over there is the only way for us to get to and from the capital, after a few glances, nothing special?" It's just that there are so many trees that I can't see where the forest is. ”

Hu Fei blinked and lowered his voice: "Actually...... It's the royal realm over there......"

"Huh?!" Chunying was taken aback, and only heard Hu Fei say: "Over there, across the forest, a little further on, is the border of the Royal South Garden, where the emperor and the princes and ministers want to hunt and have fun, they are all carried out over there." However, because the two emperors didn't like this one after another, it was a little deserted, and no one paid attention to this border place. Since his accession to the throne, he has not been idle, and he has only been fortunate once, but many children of princes and ministers in Beijing have nothing to do, so they ride horses around to play and disturb the people, so the saint decrees that they are not allowed to mess around outside, and they will come to Nanyuan if they want to play. In recent years, there have been quite a few people visiting the garden over there. ”

Chunying never imagined that a green woodland from a distance would have such a background, and she hurriedly asked: "Why haven't I ever heard the people in this village mention it?" Speaking of which, we are so close, we should at least see a few retinues of large families? ”

Hu Fei said with a smile: "Nanyuan is big, but it is more than ten miles away from the nearest door here, we are only next to the corner, and it has been abandoned for many years, and many places are no longer in the same state." However, the current admiral there is a man who is good at management, because there are many princes and sons to play, so he specially ordered his subordinate Haihu to open a restaurant nearby, as long as it is a person who goes to Nanyuan to hunt, no matter what the harvest is, pay a hundred or dozens of taels of silver, you can buy a table of first-class noodles, a color of game delicacies, whether it is for oneself to enjoy, or to entertain friends, it is very decent. In a year, this silver alone amounted to several thousand taels, and it is said that the saint had also heard of it, and as long as he did not delay his serious errand, he would treat it as if he did not know. ”

Chun Ying blinked: "What does this have to do with Zhuangzi?" Could it be that the people here can still make money from Nanyuan? ”

Hu Fei raised his eyebrows: "Why not?" Although the water and grass are abundant there, there are many rare birds and beasts, and many fruits and vegetables are planted, but they are all for the royal enjoyment, and after many years, there is not much left, and we have to prepare for the arrival of the holy car! You can't call the emperor to come, just eat the northwest wind in front of the empty garden, right? However, when those princes and sons came, if there was no prey, it would be a disappointment, so the chickens and ducks, rabbits, sheep, and deer in the garden...... Most of them are collected from outside, and even forty percent of the fruits and vegetables on the table are purchased from outside, otherwise, there will not be enough things for them to waste! ”

Chun Ying hurriedly said: "You mean that this Zhuangzi still has the ability to supply Nanyuan?!" But I've been here for a few days, and I don't see any other place to grow these except farmland, mulberry forests, and fish ponds and small rivers?! ”

"That's what happened to the woods over there." Hu Fei glanced to the east, "There is a large clearing in the forest over there, there is a water source passing through, the grass is also lush, and the surrounding trees can still shade one or two, so the people on the village have raised a lot of deer there, and there are also some golden chickens and rabbits." When it is raised, Nanyuan will have someone to collect it. This is done hidden from above, and the income is not counted in the public school, except for the head of the village and the two supervisors, the people on the village can also share a sum of money at the end of the year, so they will not easily disclose it to the outside world. Most of the mulberries produced in the village are also sold there. ”

Chunying opened her mouth wide, and after a long while, she sighed: "If our family can join in, we can live well in the village, right?" ”

"Isn't it? In fact, the three families of Cao, Zhao, and Zeng, except for the residence in the village, each family has a house in the town, but they are just hiding it from the top. ”

Chunying looked at Hu Fei a little strangely: "I am the son of the Hou Mansion, I have lived in the village for a few days, and I don't know this, where did you inquire about?" ”

Hu Fei looked away and instead stared at a tuft of hay on the wall: "Ah...... It's just ...... who inquired about."

Chunying looked at him suspiciously, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Did you get drunk and ask people, or did you stuff silver?" Otherwise...... Is it just giving other benefits? ”

Hu Fei blushed and cleared his throat: "In short, I didn't make it bad." Okay, let's get down to business, in fact, this business is good, if you can buy a small Zhuangzi, also raise some birds and animals, plant some melons and fruits, and sell them to the people of Nanyuan, you will also have a good income, even if you can't do this business, there are many sea households living nearby, and they have to eat and drink. The people of the Hou Mansion don't know this, but if this is a poor place, let's ......"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yougui walked in from outside the door, and when he saw them talking together, he lowered his face, and saw that there was no one in the house, and his face became even more ugly.

Chun Ying said to him carefully, "Dad...... Brother Xiaofei brought a message from his brother-in-law...... That's the good news! ”

"Oh?" Lu Yougui glanced at Hu Fei, "Is it your brother-in-law's news, or is it the news that someone else borrowed your brother-in-law's name?" I just came from outside, but I heard Daddy Peng mention an amazing news! ”

Chunying's scalp was numb, and she turned her head to look at Hu Fei, and the two looked at each other, with a "bad" look in their eyes.
