Fu Ciyi bowed his head, but was silent.

The big hand grabbed her little hand again and squeezed it vigorously.

Seeing this, Liu Songhe laughed one after another.

"In the end, it's a young couple, like oil in honey." He said with a smile, "I think we were like this when we were young. ”

Liu Song smiled on his face, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, Chengwen's stinky boy had no chance at all.

Yan Funing's hand was pinched by him, and in the face of Liu Songhe's smile, she had no choice but to laugh.

After a short time, the four of them finished their lunch.

Liu Song wanted to watch the restaurant business, so the He family took Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing to see the house.

Coincidentally, Caiyu also ate in the back kitchen, so she went along.

On the way, He's introduced: "That house is quite big, some years old. But the victory is that the courtyard is large, the garden is beautifully built, and the little girl's family must like a house with a garden. ”

Yan Funing said: "I like flowers. ”

Caiyu interjected: "My girl likes all kinds of beautiful things, including people." ”

Fu Ciyi's ears moved slightly.

The three women chatted all the way, and Fu Ciyi was silent the whole time.

He's footsteps turned into the alley, and they followed.

Turning around all the way in, the alleys are full of houses.

They are all brick walls, and the walls are more than one person high, and the scenery in the courtyards of each house cannot be seen.

Compared with the courtyard in the village, the courtyard in the town is better and relatively safer.

He Shi said: "Go all the way to the alley, and you will arrive at the end, and it is convenient to go to the town market." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to a mansion in front of him, with a dark lacquered door closed.

He took a few quick steps and knocked on the door.

The door opened from the inside, and the face of a middle-aged man peeked out, with a goatee growing on his chin.

He opened the door wide and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law He is here, and I just arrived." ”

He introduced: "This is the Zhuang Zhaiya man in our town, who wants to sell the house and rent the house, he knows it." ”

Fang Ya smiled: "My surname is Xu, you call me Xu Yaren, or maybe Fang Ya is." He raised his hand, "Everyone, please come in!" ”

Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing both bowed their heads and stepped into the threshold with Caiyu.

Fang Ya glanced at Yan Funing and asked with a smile: "The girl is the little shopkeeper of Liu Ji Restaurant, right?" ”

Yan Funing was surprised: "Do you recognize me?" ”

"I occasionally go to the restaurant for a drink."

"No wonder, I said something familiar."

As soon as we chatted like this, we became warm.

Xu Fangya introduced the layout of the whole house: "The courtyard has three entrances and three exits, sitting north and facing south. ”

Following in his footsteps, the crowd walked around the shadow wall, through the weeping flower gate, and under the verandah.

"The courtyard garden is the biggest feature of this house, and the owner of this house is a flower lover, so he planted a lot of flowers, and flowers bloom all year round."

He introduced as he walked: "The main house, the east and west wings, the cross-courtyard, the ear room, and the back cover room are all available, and this house can live a lot of people." ”

When he reached the front of the main room, he stopped and asked, "Young husband, little shopkeeper, are you husband and wife?" You're going to buy a house, right? ”

Fu Ciyi bowed: "Exactly." ”

"I think the young man is dignified and knowledgeable, and this house can be worthy of the young minister. In the future, the young husband will have great ambitions, and this house is also in line with the identity. ”

Yan Funing looked at the antique courtyard, the courtyard was quite clean, and it was obvious that someone was cleaning it from time to time.

The most important thing is that there are many rooms in the whole house, if you live in.

She and he can live far away.

Then he immediately asked: "Xu Fangya, what is the price of this house?" ”

Xu Fangya stretched out five fingers, opened and pinched, and opened again.

Yan Funing was puzzled: "Five hundred taels?" ”

Xu Fangya shook his head with a smile: "Two five hundred taels." ”

"That's a thousand taels, good fellow!" Caiyu's voice instantly raised.

He pulled Xu Fangya and said in a low voice: "We are all old neighbors, for the sake of me and Lao Liu's face, you can quote an affordable price." ”

Xu Fangya smiled embarrassedly: "It's like the state capital, and the price of such a house will definitely increase by a few hundred taels." If it is in the capital, such a big house, it will cost three thousand taels at least. ”

"But we're in Qingshan Town, Ling County." He said, "You will quote a sincere price." ”

Xu Fangya thought for a while and said, "Nine hundred and eighty taels." ”

Seeing that they didn't express their stance immediately, he added: "Liu Ji Restaurant's business is booming, and the little shopkeeper must not be short of money, so such a house can be lived." ”

Fu Ciyi looked down at Yan Funing beside him, and asked softly, "Do you like it?" ”

Yan Funing tugged at his sleeve: "Let's talk on the side." ”

The couple walked to the corner of the courtyard.

Yan Funing said honestly: "The price is too expensive, I can't afford it." ”

Who doesn't love a big house?

If she wanted to buy it, she would basically use up all the money she had saved so hard. It will cost money to add furniture and renovate some of the furniture in the future.

As a result, the money that will enter Beijing after the year will not be enough.

Fu Ciyi asked again: "Just tell me, do you like it or not?" ”

Yan Fu pondered for a moment and said, "I prefer the feeling of money staying by my side. ”

All of a sudden, she wants to hollow out her family, but she doesn't do it.

Fu Ciyi smiled: "Money fan." ”

"Say whatever you want." She muttered, "You don't run the house, you don't know the difficulties of running the house." ”

The man touched the top of her hair: "I know, the head of the family is hard for you." ”

"I think this house is too big, there are only a few people in our family, so we don't need to be so big." Yan Funing took the initiative to take his hand, "Let's change to another house?" ”

The corners of Fu Ciyi's lips moved slightly: "It's up to you." ”

The couple discussed, walked back, and Yan Funing said, "I have discussed with my husband, we don't want this house." ”

Xu Fangya hurriedly asked, "Why not?" The price is negotiable. ”

Fu Ciyi shook his head: "The house is okay, we will enter Beijing after the main year, and we will probably settle in the capital at that time." ”

Entering Beijing is a big deal.

Not just for the imperial examinations.

More for revenge!

If you want revenge, you must live in the capital for a long time.

Xu Fangya smiled on his face: "This matter is easy to do, and then this house will be handed over to me, the Zhuang Zhaiya person, and I will sell it to the two of you at a high price." ”

As soon as they heard this, the couple knew that whether it was 1,000 taels or 980 taels, the price was inflated.

"Let's take a look at the house next to us."

Fu Ciyi took Yan Funing's hand with his backhand and walked away.

Caiyu followed.

He Shi and Xu Fangya said: "You can help find an affordable one." ”

Xu Fangya nodded: "I know, even if the owner of this house asks for his own price, I can't lower the price at will." ”

Several people returned to the restaurant, Fu Ciyi sat for a while, and then went back to the school.

In the afternoon, Li Xinheng came back.

The crossbar connecting the two wheels has been replaced with a new one, and new stirrups have been bought.

He returned the extra money to Yan Funing.

"Girl, the owner of the carriage shop said that the wood is hard, and ordinary peasant knives cannot easily cut it. Even if it were to be cut, it would take a lot of time. ”

Yan Fu frowned when she heard this: "This matter has to be explained to the master." ”

In the evening, Fu Ciyi went to the restaurant, and Li Xinheng told him carefully about the situation of Hengmu.
