On this morning, after Jiang Zhixia got up, he was washing in the courtyard while looking at the small courtyard behind the main house.

This small courtyard has also been abandoned for a long time. Zhixia thought that now that he had money and time, he could tidy up this small yard well.

You can plant some flowers and plants. It would be nice if you could plant fruit trees. Plant it for a few years, and then you can eat it when you can bear fruit. I just don't know if anyone in the capital is planting fruit trees in their yards? It seems that there are more people who grow flowers and plants. Wouldn't it be strange if she planted fruit trees?

Jiang Zhixia was thinking about how to tidy up the small courtyard when he heard a strong knock on the door.

Jiang Zhixia was a little strange.

She has been moving here for so long, that is, Aunt Li next door has occasionally come over to hang out and chat a few words recently. However, Aunt Li is also a polite person, and she never said that she came to knock on the door early in the morning.

However, if it wasn't Aunt Li, who would it be?

Although puzzled, Zhixia still trotted to the door quickly, and asked through the door panel, "Who?" ”

"Miss Jiang, I'm Aunt Li next door." Aunt Li's voice came from outside the door.

When Jiang Zhixia heard that it was really Aunt Li, he hurriedly opened the door.

As soon as he opened the door, Zhixia saw Aunt Li and a servant standing at the door.

Jiang Zhixia was startled for a moment, and was about to salute, but was anxiously stopped by Aunt Li, stopped her from saluting, and then asked, "Did you hear any movement here last night?" ”

Jiang Zhixia looked confused, looked at the eager Aunt Li and hurriedly replied, "I didn't hear any movement." ”

"Oops, that's fine. We were robbed in this alley last night! Aunt Li said eagerly and angrily: "There was a thief who first ran to Wang Juren's house at the entrance of the opposite alley and stole something. That's a greedy thing. After stealing a family, he didn't count, and went to Wang Juren's house next door to Master Wu to steal. As a result, when he was stealing something, he happened to be bumped into by a servant who was up at night. Unexpectedly, the thief had a lot of strength, and ran away from the servant. Because of the curfew at night, Lord Wu asked people to report to the government early this morning. Because I don't know if there was only one thief stealing last night, or if there were several thieves who committed the crime together, so the lord of the government came to check from house to house. ”

When Jiang Zhixia heard this, his frightened legs softened.

Unexpectedly, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there were really people who came to the house to steal things in this place where literati gathered.

The official looked at Jiang Zhixia, who was obviously frightened, and quickly explained: "This little thief probably just came to the capital. The south was hit by floods this summer, so there have been a lot of displaced people in the capital recently. The girl should also pay more attention to safety. If you find something wrong, go to the government and report it to the government. ”

Jiang Zhixia didn't know what to say after hearing this, so he could only nod again and again. Then he thanked the servants and Aunt Li one by one.

After the official finished speaking, he continued to go to the neighbor's house on Jiang Zhixia's right to knock on the door and ask.

"I really didn't expect that." Aunt Li sighed, "The people in our small alley are not very rich, so we haven't had any thieves for many years." This thief didn't count after stealing Wang Ju's house, and he went to steal Lord Wu's house again. If it weren't for Lord Wu's servants to see it, I don't know how many people would have to steal. If we don't get it right, our entire alley will suffer. ”

"I, I didn't expect it either." Jiang Zhixia was really scared.

She always felt that she was a palace maid and would not be bullied, but she forgot that no matter what era there will be, there will be thieves who come to the door. However, she is most afraid of thieves who only steal.

It's fine if the thief just steals. After all, you can still earn money if you lose it.

What if it's the kind of vicious thief who not only steals, but also robs sex? Even, what if he kills people and kills his mouth?

Although she is not amazingly beautiful, she is also a beautiful young woman.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhixia couldn't help but shudder.

"Hey, you're a woman, you can pay more attention to the portal in the future." Aunt Li looked at Zhixia's frightened appearance and said softly, with a look of pity for her in her eyes.

Because of the policy of the imperial court, the seller should give priority to selling the house to relatives or neighbors. If everyone doesn't buy it or buys it at a low price, it can be sold to outsiders.

Therefore, after Jiang Zhixia bought a house, the official would simply inform the neighbors of Jiang Zhixia's situation, so that the neighbors would know that this person was not a wicked person.

When Jiang Zhixia moved over, because of the notice of the officials, most people in the alley knew that she was a palace maid released from the palace, because her parents died and she had no brothers and sisters, so she did not return to her hometown and set up a female household in the capital.

However, if Jiang Zhixia is alone in the future, if the thief learns about it, it will be difficult to say that it will be safe. After all, there is only a thousand-year-old thief who has not been a thief for a thousand years.

"But don't worry. We are closer to the mouth of the alley than you, and I will ask Brother Wei to pay more attention to the movement. Aunt Li looked at Jiang Zhixia's face turned pale, and hurriedly comforted, "Most of our people in this alley are people who have lived in it for more than ten years---- although the one on your right is only a family that has been bought for more than two years, but, as said in the yamen, he is a captain in the Zhenwei Army and a good person." You can rest assured. ”

Jiang Zhixia thanked Aunt Li, then said goodbye to Aunt Li, and entered the door in a trance.

After entering the door, the first thing Zhixia did was to tie the door bolt, looked at it, still not at ease, and found a big wooden stick to put on the door.

After doing it, Jiang Zhixia smiled bitterly, feeling that he was really nervous.

In broad daylight, will anyone still come to the door to steal things? That's too rampant, isn't it?

And, even if a thief comes to steal something, will anyone open the door and enter? Aren't they all over the wall? So what's the use of holding the gate?

Zhixia sat in the courtyard thinking about it, and suddenly, a thought came to mind, with a house, land, and money, is it possible to put buying people on the agenda?

Buying people has always been two different opinions in the modern society of the previous life.

Needless to say, it is not necessary to agree with it. Those who disagree with it are those who hold the idea that all men are equal.

Jiang Zhixia herself used to be a palace maid. Although the title is nice, he is also a slave in the palace.

She had been a slave herself, had no freedom, and her life was not guaranteed. However, life is indeed not worrying about eating and drinking.

And for her, although the slave is pitiful, she is an ordinary person who cannot challenge the established rules of this world.

Equality of human rights and the abolition of slavery are not something that a weak woman like her can do.

What she can do is to be kind to them within her ability and be a master who is not harsh. Think of them as employees hired by their bosses in a past life.

Therefore, Jiang Zhixia decided to put buying people on the agenda.

Actually, it's best if you can buy that kind of woman who learns martial arts. But such talents are hard to come by, so she doesn't have extravagant expectations.

If you can't meet it, buy a woman with more strength to accompany you. It doesn't matter how old you are, as long as you have a lot of strength.

In this way, one more person should be less afraid, right? Right? Right?
