Chang's face looked a little better, and he said that he didn't stretch out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, this young girl was not as arrogant and unreasonable as her mother, but she was a little interesting.

When the woman heard this, she pleaded aggrievedly and loudly: "Why is it okay? My face is swollen—"

"Madam, you just said that you should abide by the rules of your house, why don't you tell us what kind of regulations are?" He Mai ignored his mother-in-law, but smiled at Chang's family.

Chang Shi glanced at her coldly and made a gesture to the maid behind him.

The maid behind him recited the words squarely: "The Tang family rules, the chicken cries twice and must get up, greet the lady before dinner in the early morning, do not make a sound when eating, clean up the dishes and chopsticks after eating, go back to the room to carry water and clean, wipe the floor three times, wipe the table five times, and there is no ash at all...... When the sun sets, don't pick up the lamp and light the wax......"

He Mai's head was big when he heard this, "This is your Tang family's family rules?" Everyone does it? Mrs. Chang, do you do this every day? ”

The little maid glanced at He Mai amusedly, "This is the family rule of the people, and it is not the rule of the masters." Y-all remembered? ”

Hemai was wary of Zhong Xiangsi getting angry at this time, and hurriedly agreed, "Remember, remember, remember......"

"Remember, it's fine." Seeing that Hemai's attitude was acceptable, Chang Shi nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at Zhong Xiangsi meaningfully, "If you can't abide by these family rules, you guys, go out of the house!" ”

The group left the courtyard in a grand manner, and when they left, the beaten mother-in-law glared at Zhong Xiangsi.

When did Zhong Xiangsi receive such an insult, his anger and hatred couldn't tear through Chang's face.

"Okay, mother! We were bullied by dogs in Pingyang, this is also a helpless thing! He Mai desperately stopped Zhong Xiangsi, "Why don't we go and ask Steward Zhao to help——"

"I don't want to live in the Tang family anymore!" Zhong Xiangsi said angrily, "I can't stay for a moment now, I'd rather sleep on the overpass and break the temple than live in the Tang family!" ”

"Let's ask Steward Zhao if we can register a few of our households, so that we can rent a house in Yaxing, or, simply let Steward Zhao help us find a courtyard, a little quieter, let's pay the rent, and find another way in the future, isn't it?" He Mai persuaded.

Zhong Xiangsi groaned, "That's ...... It doesn't seem impossible. ”

He Mai said: "Yes, mother, you can!" After a while, when it gets dawn, I'll go to Steward Zhao! ”

Steward Zhao didn't know about the incident in the early morning, so Chang naturally deliberately let his subordinates hide it from the old butler.

Hearing that Zhong Xiangsi was going to move out, Steward Zhao tried his best to stay, "The master is coming back in a while...... Madame, if you leave, I am afraid that the lord will be angry when he comes back......"

"Steward Zhao, you have also seen that this Mrs. Chang in your house is really difficult," Zhong Xiangsi's tone was still a little difficult to resolve the hatred, "If I hadn't seen her as a deep house woman, I would have beaten her a long time ago, where would I let her jump in front of me and spread wild?" ”

Steward Zhao had nothing to say, and after a while, he said, "If the house is more dilapidated...... Madame may accept? ”

Zhong Xiangsi said: "That's no problem! ”

Zhong Xiangsi's answer was simple, but when Steward Zhao took her and He Mai to see the house, the mother and daughter looked at each other, and no one thought that this so-called dilapidated ...... It's so hard to accept!

The cobwebs on the beams of the house were thick and cloth-like, hanging from the ground in ruins, and the roof had a large hole in the roof, and a bunch of chirping birds roosted.

And the doors and windows fell almost entirely, and the wind blew through, and there was a creaking sound from the broken door.

The two gardens in the courtyard were full of wet mud, and in some places there were long strips of insects crawling outward.

Not to mention how dilapidated the stove in the stove room was.

Zhong Xiangsi looked at the dilapidated house with concern, "This is where people live?" ”

Steward Zhao said, "Yes...... It's just that it has been deserted for many years, and there is no one to live in. Madam, the rent of this place is only 500 copper coins per month, and the house next to it will cost 1 or 2 taels a month. ”

"This house is so desolate, even if you want to live in it, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to repair it." He Mai groaned, "However, since it is the place that Steward Zhao found, it must be considered suitable." Steward Zhao, how to pay the rent? ”

Steward Zhao said: "The rent is not in a hurry. Madame, Miss Hemai, if you really want to stay, how about I get some men to help you make up this house? In two or three days at most, the house will be completely renewed. It's just that I'm afraid you will have to take the money for the house......"

"Then let's make it up, we also want to live for a long time." He Mai agreed.

When he returned to Tang's house the next day, Liulang was feeding medicine to Yan Xing on the couch.

Yan Xing knew that Zhong Xiangsi and He Mai went to see the house, and when they saw the two of them coming back relaxed, he said with a smile: "But the matter of the house has been settled?" ”

"Yes," Zhong Xiangsi nodded, "I've paid a year's rent." Steward Zhao asked someone to help us clean up the house, and in the next two days, we will be able to live in. ”

Yan Xing said: "Okay, I finally got your wish." ”

"Dad, Liulang, I discussed with my mother just now, why don't I leave tonight, go to my cousin's house in Changming City, and bring Mu He back?" He Mai was a little impatient, "Right now, we can be regarded as settling down in Crescent City, it will take about three or four days to come and go, and if I want to bring Mu He back, we can live directly in our own home." ”

When Rokuro heard this, he vetoed without hesitation: "You can't go alone!" I'll go with you, and we'll be careful on the road. ”

Yan Xing frowned and said, "Liulang, you ...... And he did not go. ”

Liulang and Yan Xing are criminals on the wanted list of the Great Zhou at the same time, even if there are fewer people who know Liulang, but the portrait still has Yan Xing's description.

Rokuro accompanied He Mai to ...... It's still not safe.

Zhong Xiangsi said simply: "Why don't I go with Hemai?" ”

"No way!" He Mai shook his head, "Mother, you have to stay and take care of your father...... Rokuro is a man no matter how he says it, and he really doesn't have the care you take care of his father. Liulang, don't fight with me, I'm going to target a small goal alone, and besides, I'm a woman, and no one knows me, who will be embarrassed? I'll go by myself, and nothing will happen......"

"I'm really not at ease...... Rokuro always frowned, relieved, "It's better to wait a little longer, wait for Dad's injury to get better, and ask my mother to go with you......"

"yes, Hemai, don't wait any longer." Zhong Xiangsi also persuaded.

As a mother, she naturally can't wait to see her daughter, but ......

Letting Hemai go on the road alone is not what Zhong Xiangsi and Rokuro want to see.

There is no one to take care of on the road, what if something goes wrong?
