262 stays
Fortunately, the quarrel picture made up by Zhao Lao's mind did not appear, and he watched everyone get into the carriage, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.
"Drive steady."
Old man Zhao told the coachman, and then sat in a sedan chair and followed.
Because she was sitting in a carriage with the people of the Xie family, Gu Ping'an and several children were sitting quietly, Su Mo also felt that the atmosphere was a little solidified, she simply lowered her eyes, looked at her nose, and looked at her heart.
Because of Old Man Zhao's orders, the coachman walked steadily and slowly, and when he walked for more than a quarter of an hour, Su Mo obviously noticed that the outside was gradually quieting down, and after a while, he could even hear the sound of the wheels rolling on the bluestone slab.
The carriage gradually stopped, and the coachman lifted the curtain and said, "Here we are." ”
Su Mo sat in front, and as soon as the carriage stopped, it went down.
After going down, she hugged Gu Xingnian down, and then helped Gu Ping'an and them down, and when Gu Qinhan also came down, she looked at the small courtyard.
The small courtyard looked very good, and it was indeed very quiet around, and there were occasionally two dog barks in the distance.
When Old Man Zhao heard this, he smiled and said to Su Mo:
"Most of the people who live here are old people who go to bed early on weekdays, so it's so quiet.
The dog was raised by the family at the mouth of the alley here, and it barked twice when it heard movement, but it didn't bite.
There's not much to say in this courtyard, but if you walk this way, you can see a well, one for laundry, and one for drinking. ”
Old man Zhao first pointed to one side of the alley, and then to the other end.
"In the past two alleys, there would be old people selling vegetables in the morning, all home-grown, chickens, ducks, fish and pork.
If you're lucky, you'll come across someone selling bean curd and wontons, which are affordable and delicious.
If you want to go to the street, you can walk on both sides, you have to walk more, but at most it will take more than a quarter of an hour to get to the street.
The stalls on the streets of our Yuzhou Mansion opened early, and the food shops opened in the morning, but if you want to be lively, you have to go in the evening.
At that time, the painting boats on the lake around the city were lit with candles, which were very beautiful, and in addition to the stalls on the street, the juggling also began, and when it was dark, there were still iron flowers on the street to see. ”
Su Mo listened carefully, and after the old man Zhao finished speaking, he thanked him with a smile.
Old man Zhao waved his hand, It's not too early for this hour, "The old man who should say this has been said, it's getting late, so the old man will retire first, and come over tomorrow to sign the lease deed." ”
Su Mo and Xie Wenci both nodded and watched him leave in a sedan chair.
Old man Zhao left, and the group entered the courtyard, Su Mo didn't even look at the room on the other side of the hall, she smiled lightly, and as soon as she entered, she said goodbye to Xie Wen: "Master Xie, this house around the city lake belongs to me, how about it?" ”
Xie Wen was slightly stunned, and then nodded, "I only need two rooms, just the two rooms in front, and the rest of the rooms Mrs. Gu is at will." ”
His mother is old, and the house near the lake is damp, and the one on the other side is close to the kitchen, which is not suitable.
He originally thought that in case Su Mo also wanted the room next to the hall, what should he say, who knew that Su Mo actually wanted this east wing to live.
And the doors of the rooms on both sides of the hall are inside, so you have to enter through the hall, which is actually extremely suitable for his situation.
Su Mo bowed slightly, and the matter was settled.
Mother Xie couldn't bear it anymore, so she was helped into the hall by He Nier, and picked a random house and went in.
Xie Wenci looked at the room lit by candles, and breathed a sigh of relief, after two days of traveling, he finally settled down.
He raised his leg and was about to go back to the house to rest, but Su Mo stopped him and took out four taels of silver from his arms and handed it over.
"Xie Fuzi stays."
Xie Wen looked back in confusion.
Su Mo said with a smile: "This kitchen and hall are shared, I won't count it, you have two of the six rooms, and I count the four Qingzhou rooms here, and if you convert it with the rent, it will be four taels of silver." ”
Xie Wenci looked at the silver handed by Su Mo, raised his eyes, met her detached eyes, and came back to his senses for a long time.
He lowered his eyes slightly, didn't say anything, just reached out and took the silver, and walked towards the hall.
Xie Wenci knew very well that between him and her, it was impossible.
But why is it still a little uncomfortable?
As the night deepened, Su Mo yawned and arranged everyone's accommodation.
She and Gu Xingnian slept in one room, Gu Ping'an and Gu Jinnian in one room, Chen Qingzhou in one room, and Gu Qinhan in one room.
As soon as Gu Qinhan put down the baggage, he went straight to the kitchen, where the dishes, chopsticks, and firewood were all complete.
There was water in the water tank, and he looked at the wooden bucket next to him, it should be that after Xie Wenci looked at the yard, Old Man Zhao asked him to beat it.
There were also condiments, but there was no oil, and then he also found that there was rice in the bamboo tube in the rice bowl, which was exactly one liter.
That's a ......
Gu Qinhan still had some dry food there, but it wasn't much, he thought about it, didn't touch the liter of rice, but poured water into the pot, lit the fire, set up the firewood, and then said goodbye to Su Mo, and went out.
Only one liter of rice, even if it is boiled into porridge, it is not enough to fill the stomach.
Gu Qinhan knew that Su Mo was hungry fast, so he ate some dry food at noon, and it would be this hour, and his stomach must be hungry.
So he went straight to the light, a quarter of an hour's journey, and arrived in a short time.
The curfew time has not yet arrived, and the streets are still lively, with people coming and going, and the food shops are steaming.
Gu Qinhan looked left and right, one person bought a bowl of noodles to pack, went to the porridge shop on the side to buy a porridge, then asked for two scallion pancakes, and went to the pastry shop on the other side to buy some soft and glutinous, half-sugar snacks.
This side of the noodles is also interesting, the boiled noodles are drained, packed separately with oiled paper, and then a bamboo tube is filled with soup, covered with oiled paper, put the noodles on top, tied with a rope, and you can walk with it.
The porridge is also packed in bamboo tubes, and the scallion pancakes and dim sum are packed directly in oiled paper.
Gu Qinhan had the silver, paid for it, and when it was done, he took it and left, leaving the street and walking into the alley, and he walked away.
This back and forth is actually the longest time to wait for eating.
Su Mo's door was open, and the children were all there.
Gu Qinhan carried things in, and his eyes kept falling on Su Mo. "I'm hungry, I bought noodles, lean pork and wild vegetable porridge, and scallion pancakes and dim sum."
There was a table in Su Mo's room, so Gu Qinhan put everything on the table, then went to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks, poured the noodle soup and noodles into the bowl one by one, and poured the porridge into the bowl.
The noodle soup is a fragrant bone broth, there is some meat foam in it, it smells very fragrant, Su Mo is already hungry, this will smell it, and I can't wait to swallow the noodles in one bite.
Several children were also hungry, but they didn't move, and when Su Mo spoke, he went over, picked up chopsticks and ate.
The portion of noodles was quite large, and the children were full after eating.
Gu Qinhan was not enough, so he ate a few more small pieces of scallion pancakes, but Su Mo was not enough at all, so he used scallion pancakes to make porridge, and after eating, he also ate two pieces of dim sum.
The half-sugar ones are not greasy, and they are not the kind of dry pastries, the one that Su Mo eats is called a comfortable one.
