"This house has been turned over by that gang." Zhao Yunlan complained.

Li Mingren: "I see that the soil over there has been turned over, but they still know how to fill it in." ”

Shao Chun followed and didn't know how to respond, but he didn't expect to encounter such a situation.

Zhao Yunlan continued: "It seems that the security here is a little bad, and they dare to commit burglary. ”

Shao Chun was even more nervous at this time, and he couldn't wait to find out the gang of thieves at this moment, even if the news was not good, he had no quality, and he wouldn't put it back if the tile was lifted.

After shopping around, Zhao Yunlan slowly turned her head to look at Shao Chun.

"Now that this house is like this, I'm afraid the price I said before can't be done now......"

Shao Chun hurriedly nodded, glanced at An Laohan next to him and said, "If Madam doesn't like Zhuangzi's appearance, I can go and discuss the price with the seller." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "But didn't An Laohan just say that his master was gone?" How long will this be discussed? ”

An Laohan then spoke: "This lady, little brother Shao, my lord wrote a letter saying that let little brother Shao talk to the manager." ”

Shao Chun said: "Okay, madam, give me two days, and I will give you a satisfactory price." ”

Zhao Yunlan nodded, "Then we'll go back first and wait for your good news." ”

After Li Mingren helped Zhao Yunlan get into the car, he asked He Wen to hurry up and leave the carriage. And Shao Chun wanted to stay with the old man An to learn more about the situation of this Zhuangzi, so he did not take the Li family's carriage back to the city.

On the carriage, Li Mingren wiped his sweat and said, "I don't want to go out again tomorrow, it's uncomfortable to be hot." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "I don't want to come out tomorrow." ”

The couple went back to the house, and He Hua brought a bowl of mung bean smoothie to the two.

Zhao Yunlan was a little surprised: "He Hua, you actually made this smoothie." ”

He Hua smiled: "Madam, what I make here is Sushan, and the Sushan in the ice shop outside is very valuable, so I thought about making it myself." However, Madame said that it was more appropriate to say that it was a mung bean smoothie. ”

Zhao Yunlan took a sip: "It tastes good, it's too comfortable to eat in this weather." ”

He Huale smiled, but Chunxiang reminded beside her: "Madame, don't be greedy." ”

Zhao Yunlan glanced at Chunxiang helplessly: "Well, I know, you are really a little housekeeper now, a little bit of Mama Cui's shadow!" ”

Chunxiang became proud, looked at Li Mingren and admonished: "Master, you must not be greedy. ”

Li Mingren: "......"

Zhao Yunlan couldn't help but smile, and called Li Hua after eating the mung bean smoothie.

"Can the ten people be arranged?"

Li Hua: "Madam, it's arranged." I'm waiting in the front yard. ”

"Well, let He Wen take them with you to familiarize themselves with the situation, and make arrangements tomorrow."

Li Hua: "Yes, ma'am. ”

Li Mingren: "I'll wash it and change my clothes, it's uncomfortable." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Go, go!" ”

In the past two days, Li Mingren has been less worried, and the amount of food has been larger, although Zhao Yunlan can't help Li Mingren in the matter of electing officials, but she can think of a way to relieve Li Mingren's mood.

The next day, Zhao Yunlan did not go out, but Li Mingren said that he would not go out again, but he went out early to make an appointment. I heard Li Hua come to report that it was Zhou Hanwen's little servant who came to invite, saying that he was going to hunt in the mountains.

Zhao Yunlan thought, going hunting on this hot day is sweating, although the mountains are cool, after all, hunting is a whole body exercise.

"He Wen, call those people from yesterday!"

"Yes, ma'am." He Wen quickly summoned people over, and ten people lined up in two rows and stood in a regular manner.

"The three mothers-in-law will follow He Hua to take charge of the kitchen first." Zhao Yunlan didn't let everyone introduce it again, anyway, she will know it later when she is familiar with it.

The other seven men, Zhao Yunlan asked everyone to compare their skills one by one. Sure enough, everyone's skills are average, and they can only be said to be barely usable, which is comparable to Li Hualai.

However, Li Hua has strengthened his practice during this time, so he looks more presentable.

"Li Hua, even if the guard team of this family is established in the future, these seven people will be handed over to you, you take everyone to practice every day, and your part is to protect our family."

Li Hua suddenly felt a heavy responsibility, and his chest unconsciously straightened.

"Yes, ma'am, I will not fail in my mission!"

"Chunxiang, take a few pieces of cloth out in a while and take a few mothers-in-law to make some of their clothes." Zhao Yunlan continued to arrange, summer clothes are easy to make, and it is not too difficult for a few mothers-in-law to make them.

Haruka nodded in response.

After all the subordinates were arranged, Zhao Yunlan didn't want to move when she saw that the sun was flourishing outside. Instructed Haruka to move a few ice basins next to it, intending to read a book for a while.

Chunxiang only moved an ice basin, Zhao Yunlan felt that it was not enough, and wanted another basin, but Chunxiang was unwilling, and only said: "Madame, don't be greedy!" ”

Zhao Yunlan was helpless, so she had to take the book and divert her attention.

Before I knew it, it was time for the sunset, and Li Mingren hadn't come back yet, but Shao Chun had found it.

Li Hua took Shao Chun to the front yard and waited, and then went to the backyard to invite Zhao Yunlan.

"So quickly?"

Shao Chun: "Yes, madam." The steward who stayed only thought about quickly disposing of the house and went to his master, and as soon as I said that the house was going to reduce the price, he immediately agreed. ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Oh~ How much can it be lowered?" ”

Shao Chun: "Now the price of Zhuangzi is three thousand two hundred taels, do you think it is acceptable, madam?" ”

Zhao Yunlan pondered for a while, this Zhuangzi used to ask for 4,600 taels, but this one went down to 1,400 taels, is this tooth man so capable or that steward does not understand the market.

That Zhuangzi, just by virtue of being on the outskirts of Beijing, can be worth three thousand taels of land alone. Now it's just that it's worn out for some reason, and it's not so cheap.

Shao Chun saw that Zhao Yunlan didn't speak for a long time, so he had to say honestly: "Madam, the reason why this Zhuangzi is so cheap is all because of the thief, and the whereabouts of this thief are unknown now, I am only worried that the gang of thieves will come to this Zhuangzi to commit murder in the future, after all, Mrs. will still repair the Zhuangzi after buying it." Therefore, this can negotiate the price, that is, Mrs. should be more careful after that. ”

Zhao Yunlan thought about it, the thieves were not afraid, and besides, they would not get a brick and jade tile like the rich businessman, and the Zhuangzi would only be a vegetable in the future, but if it was really like what Shao Chun said, the thieves would come to patronize again, and it would still cost some repair costs.

The best solution is to catch the gang so you don't have to worry about it all day.

After thinking about it, Zhao Yunlan still wanted to take Zhuangzi, after all, this is unavoidable, and those thieves didn't take An Laohan, so it can be seen that they only seek wealth and not take their lives.

"yes, okay. Three thousand two hundred taels is three thousand two hundred taels, which is even selling the nearby land, right? Zhao Yunlan confirmed again.

Shao Chun said: "Yes, Mrs. Li, this is the deed, you can see if there is any problem." ”

Zhao Yunlan looked at it, and there was indeed no problem, "Okay, then let's do the deed." ”

Shao Chun nodded, suddenly a little embarrassed, and opened his mouth to look at Zhao Yunlan.

"But is there anything else?"

Shao Chun said slowly: "The old man was abandoned by his master, and I look at him pitifully, does Mrs. still need manpower here?" After all, he has also guarded Zhuangzi for so long, and he also understands Zhuangzi's situation. ”

Zhao Yunlan was a little speechless, this is inexplicably still accepting someone. However, it is okay to have someone who is familiar with Zhuangzi, and anyway, you have to arrange someone to go to Zhuangzi later.

"Okay, then take it."

Shao Chun immediately nodded, thinking that Old Man An didn't have to smash it on his hands, and said with a smile: "I will send you the deed of Old Man An soon, and I will also get the deed of Zhuangzi soon." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Hmm. ”

Not long after Shao Chun left, Li Mingren came back with a smell of sweat, and his clothes were torn several times.

"Do you have any injuries?" Zhao Yunlan asked with concern.

Li Mingren smiled: "It's not hurt, I'll wash it first." ”

Zhao Yunlan nodded, Li Mingren went back to the backyard to wash, and always felt that his arms couldn't be lifted, and the fall on the mountain was not light, and his thighs were already dark and green at this time.
