Qi Lele woke up, it was already dawn, she subconsciously reached out to her side and touched it, and felt empty.

A faint sense of loss permeated her heart, although Xie Zi'an got up earlier than her every day, but getting up early and not returning all night are still different after all.

Thinking of last night's plan, Qi Lele turned over and got up, ready to go around the neighborhood again and survey it on the spot.

"Awake?"

Qi Lele turned his head suddenly, who was the person sitting at the table if it wasn't Xie Zi'an?

"You're back so early?"

"If there is nothing to do, I will return early." Xie Zi'an put down the book in his hand and walked to the dresser: "Come."

Qi Lele sat down obediently and let him comb his hair.

"I thought about it last night and thought we could plant some fruit trees around our house."

Xie Zi'an said, "Okay, what do you want to plant?"

"Look at how big the area is, I want to plant some grapes first, and it happens to be planted in this season, but I don't know if I can buy grape seedlings."

"Yes, Uncle Wang has a doorway."

"If you pay a high price, it's not worth it!"

Xie Zi'an laughed: "Okay, I'll talk to him."

"There are also jujube trees, apricot trees, pear trees, peach trees, etc., you can also plant some, see what people like to eat, we will plant anything."

"Okay."

As he spoke, his hair was combed in a bun, and Qi Lele was about to get up, but he was gently pressed on the shoulder.

"I'll give you an eyebrow today."

Qi Lele shook his head: "No, no, no."

"I'm going to show you if my hands are shaking when I draw my eyebrows."

Qi Lele: "......"

Very good! Xie Zi'an really listened to what she said to Wang Rongrong on the day she returned to the door!

"Do you remember all this time?"

Xie Zi'an said with a smile: "Every word of Madame's husband is in my heart."

Qi Lele raised his eyebrows: "Did you drink last night?"

Xie Zi'an smiled without saying a word, reached out and pulled open the drawer, took a daishi, and took an eyebrow pencil.

Qi Lele looked at his skillful movements: "This is also something that I learned by seeing it occasionally?"

"Close your eyes."

Qi Lele pursed his lips and closed his eyes.

After a few moments, the pencil slid gently over her brow bone, like a feather scraping through her heart.

For no reason, Qi Lele remembered the baby kiss in Xie Zi'an's mouth on the night of marriage, did they also have childhood sweethearts and two little guesses? Did Xie Zi'an also follow the example of his elders to paint her eyebrows?

"What are you thinking?"

Qi Lele came back to his senses, opened his eyes, and met Xie Zi'an's smiling eyebrows, reflecting her face under his eyes, as if she was the only one in his eyes.

However, the person in front of him was obviously smiling, but Qi Lele inexplicably felt that he was sad in his heart.

"Did you have any unhappiness yesterday?"

Xie Zi'an's smile paused, and then nodded: "It's not good to know the news of a few old people."

Qi Lele stretched out his hand and hugged him gently: "Then you have to be happier, so that when the old people know your news, they can be happier."

Xie Zi'an hugged her and buried his head in her hair for a long time before he said, "Okay."

Qi Lele let him hold him, and silently made a note in his heart, this person will also play tricks when he is in a bad mood.

Knowing that Qi Lele planned to plant fruit trees around, a few small people in the family were overjoyed and argued about what to plant.

Even Su Yaxian was interested and wanted to enclose the land with them.

This is the first time Qi Lele has seen Su Yaxian go out of the door after being married for so long.

"What do you think is the right thing to plant?"

"I want to plant a vineyard and try to make wine when I go back. I also want to grow some watermelons to relieve the summer heat."

"Not bad." Su Yaxian smiled: "What about Xianxian?"

Xie Sixian said happily, "I want to grow peaches and pears! It would be better if there were branches!"

"Peach blossoms and pear blossoms are also beautiful when they are in full bloom."

Xie Ziyan said, "Plant some loquats!"

Xie Ziwen said, "I think the jujube tree is also good!"

Su Yaxian smiled: "Then let's plant some, if the land is not enough, we can buy more, it will affect the remoteness of our lives, and it will not hinder others."

Qi Lele: "......"

This familiar style of buying land if you don't agree with each other!

Should she say that she really deserves to be a family?

Xie Zi'an lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly.

Walking around the area, Qi Lele found that the area that the Xie family bought was really large, enough to plant all kinds of fruits.

As he was wandering around, he saw Wang Yuzhong leading two people, saying that they were craftsmen from the city. Su Yaxian took Xie Sixian back to the courtyard, Xie Ziyan and Xie Ziwen were curious and continued to follow.

Qi Lele watched the two craftsmen carefully measure the size, took a pen and paper to write and draw, and carefully noted down Xie Zi'an's request.

Listening to Xie Zishi Shiran's plan to build an orchard, Qi Lele couldn't help but support his forehead.

Taking advantage of the two of them's measurements, they pulled the person aside: "We'll just do the orchard ourselves."

Xie Zi'an said with a smile: "There are specializations in the art industry, so it is more appropriate to hand them over."

"Didn't they just build houses?"

"The mansions they built were not only residences, but also gardens, and the orchard was also one of the gardens."

Qi Le was happy, it turned out that they built a house not only to build a house, but also to have a garden design!

It wasn't until near noon that the two men finished their work, and one of them said, "We'll bring you the drawings in three days."

Xie Zi'an said, "There is labor!"

"Don't dare to be! It's a matter of duty!"

Qi Lele was already wooden on the side, she originally thought that the ancients built houses based on experience, but she didn't expect to produce drawings, but it was almost the same as modern times, but she didn't know how much it would cost.

When she got home, she decisively pulled Xie Zi'an into the room: "Let's keep an account!"

"Bookkeeping?"

"From now on, every expense will be recorded."

"Earlier, you said that there were 1,600 taels left, 10 acres of fertile land cost 210 taels, and 6 acres of fertile land cost 108 taels, so how much silver did you spend to buy it back? How much did you spend in the study the day before yesterday? How much did it cost to go to the city yesterday?"

Xie Zi'an couldn't help laughing, but he still obeyed Qi Lele's wishes, sat down at the table honestly, took a pen and paper and began to record.

"The two families signed a living deed, and it didn't cost much, as long as they gave some money for the month." As he spoke, he wrote down the number of eighty taels.

"The day before yesterday, we bought paper, pens and books in the study, which cost 10 taels. Forty taels were obtained from copying books, and the remainder was thirty taels. It didn't cost me to go into the city yesterday."

Qi Lele asked again, "Where are the seeds?"

"I don't know how much the seeds cost, but they shouldn't be expensive."

"Then how much silver did you get for building a house and a yard this time?"

Xie Zi'an said, "I don't know yet."

Qi Lele was not so easy to fool: "How much did our yard cost?"

Xie Zi'an's voice was inexplicably lowered: "About two hundred taels."

Qi Lele glared at him and didn't speak.

"What?"

"What do you say? A house in the village can be built for only ten taels, even twenty or thirty taels, and no more than eighty taels, and you can have more than three or four times!"

Xie Zi'an was not annoyed, and looked like he was listening carefully to his teachings.

Qi Lele said helplessly: "You calculate how much silver you can have left after this!"

"About a thousand taels left?"

"Lan Qiu's woodland hasn't been given silver yet! And the monthly money of those people! Rations for all! Dad also said he would buy some more land!" Qi Lele said and sighed, "And the seeds of those fruit trees, I'm afraid it's not cheap!"

"That

It's enough, don't worry."

Xie Zi'an didn't understand why Qi Lele was always worried about not enough silver, it stands to reason that thousands of taels of silver should be a huge amount of money for her.

Originally, he thought that after informing her of the price of copying books, he would be able to reassure her, but now it seems that it is in vain.

It's no wonder that Xie Zi'an doesn't understand, Qi Lele relied on his grandmother in his last life, and he was used to being poor, and she felt distressed every time she saw Xie Zi'an's lavish spending! I can't bear the trend of plummeting balances.

What's more, she hasn't found a way to make money in the short term, although she has thought of an idea of a book, but Du Lanqiu's mother and daughter are now in a lawsuit, and they don't know when they can start writing, and she is reluctant to mention Xie Zi'an, always worried that it will affect his study.

"From this day forward, the family's money will be in the hands of the wife, okay?"

Qi Lele shook his head decisively and refused: "This is not appropriate."

"The head of the family should be a wife." Xie Zi'an said again: "I'm used to being extravagant, and someone has to take care of me to save money."

Qi Lele was a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Xie Zi'an took her hand and shook it, softened his voice and coaxed: "Look, it's only been half a month, and half of it has already gone, which is less than a thousand taels, if I am in charge of the house again, I may not be able to last half a year."

But there is self-knowledge!

"Every time my father asks me if the silver taels are enough, I say that there is still a surplus, and if there is no silver taels suddenly, it will be difficult to explain in front of my father."

"If you let my mother know again......

Qi Lele said, "Okay, okay! I'll help you!" Don't look pathetic anymore!

Xie Zi'an smiled: "Mrs. Xie is considerate!"

Qi Lele couldn't help but silently reflect, did she fall for a beautiful man?
