Chapter 100

Mr. Zeng looked up at the sky, and then suggested to Qin Dewei, "It's still early today. Come back to the apartment with me, get the house keys, and I'll take you there."

Qin Dewei had nothing to disagree with, and followed Mr. Zeng away.After taking the key, the three of them headed east along the street.

Liu Yue was still struggling to walk. Qin Dewei was very worried. If she threw herself on the street, she would not be able to tell. Hanging it in the Xu family and hanging it in her own hands were two different things.

He happened to see a sedan chairman waiting to be hired on the street corner again, so he thought about asking Mr. Zeng to borrow some money to hire a sedan chair and put Liu Yue on it.But this idea was rejected by Liu Yue, insisting to follow with a pale face and bloodless face.

"Did you do this on purpose to win my sympathy?" Qin Dewei questioned with high vigilance.Liu Yue was so angry that she almost vomited blood, neither sitting nor not sitting.

The saddest thing about green tea is that it is known to be green tea, and then every word and deed are suspected of being intentional.Liu Yue was probably in such a state in front of Qin Dewei.

But Liu Yue was already struggling just to walk at this time, how could she still have the mood to act, she gritted her teeth and replied, "Duan Duan doesn't have a master who walks by himself, but the slaves are sitting in sedan chairs."

Qin Dewei thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "So you are implying again, you want to sit in the sedan chair with me?"

Liu Yue only felt that she was speechless, and she took a breath and said, "No matter how ignorant the slave family is, and they know the difference between superiors and inferiors, how can they be disrespectful?"

Qin Dewei finally understood the maid's thoughts: "Oh, it turned out to be to create an image of being polite and abiding by duty. After all, you have been accused of being restless before, and you urgently need to restore your image."

Liu Yue held down the anger of wanting to hit people, endured the uncomfortable feeling of being weak and weak, and desperately showed her acting skills and wanted to cry: "The slave family is a little careful, I don't want to be defeated by you.

But now the slave family is like drifting grass. You are in control of life and death, and you are afraid of being looked down upon by you. The taste of this is really sad.So I just wanted to perform well, and I hope you don't take offense for these thoughts. "

Qin Dewei nodded with satisfaction, "You're right, if you have any idea, just say it, don't always act with me, I'm still tired if you're not tired!"

Mr. Zeng was confused for a while, who is playing this?
Originally, he knew something about Liu Yue, but deep down he hated Liu Yue very much.But looking at Qin Dewei's thief-proof posture, he suddenly began to sympathize with Liu Yue's future.

Continuing on the road, Mr. Zeng introduced to Qin Dewei: "My house is located in the east of the city, with convenient transportation. It can be called a boutique building. So, stained with scholarly family."

Qin Dewei: "."

As Mr. Zeng talked, he found that Qin Dewei was not at all eager to yearn, but his expression was a little weird, so he asked, "what's the matter with you?"

Qin Dewei said quietly, "Does Mr. Zeng want to sell the house?"

Mr. Zeng is inexplicable. These words he said are all for blowing water, indirectly proving that he is not a person who spends money indiscriminately. What does it have to do with selling the house?
The two were talking, and gradually they walked to the Taiping Square in the east of the city.Speaking of this name, I don't know how many Taipingfangs there are in cities all over the world, just like a bunch of place names such as Zhongshan Road in five hundred years.

In the Taiping Square of Daming Nanjing City, if you walk further east for a while, you will find Dongshuiguan and Tongji Gate, which are also the nodes where the outer Qinhuai River branches into the city and becomes the inner Qinhuai River.

"Look, I said that it is located in the east of the city, and the transportation is convenient!" Mr. Zeng boasted.

Qin Dewei was speechless. Geographically, Tongji Gate corresponds to Sanshanmen, but inside Sanshanmen is Sanshanmen Street, and outside is Mochou Lake, Jiangdongmen, and the wider Yangtze River.

Outside the Tongji Gate are the Shanchuan Temple, the Temple of Heaven, the Daxiaochang, and the Shenji Camp. He is a primary school student who is determined to be a scholar. What is the use of Tongjimen's convenient transportation? He is not the Minister of War, the Minister of Rites, or Tai Changqing. .

As he walked, he came to a small dark door, and Mr. Zeng went up and knocked on the door a few times.Qin Dewei didn't understand, what door did he knock on?Does anyone still live there?
But seeing someone open the door from inside, Mr. Zeng greeted Qin Dewei to come in together, and saw three people standing in the front yard.They were a strong couple in their thirties, plus a five- or six-year-old girl.

Mr. Zeng's voice suddenly became much quieter, and he introduced to Qin Dewei with dodging eyes: "This is Hao Danian and his wife. They are both servants left by the owner of the previous family. There is nowhere to go, so I took them in first."

Qin Dewei, who just wanted to find a place to stay and only had a fortune plan yet to be realized: "."

Does living here mean that all the servants are to be raised?
All of a sudden, there are two people, one big and one small, three people, plus Liu Yue, there are four people!By the way, as well as myself, who intends to become a master on his own, with a total of five people, how to support them?How to raise it?
Now he finally began to have reason to suspect that Mr. Zeng wanted to dump the blame after over-consumption. At this time, Qin Dewei really had the urge to leave.

Mr. Zeng, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, suddenly pulled Qin Dewei and greeted, "Look at the house first, look at the house first!"

In fact, there is nothing to see, the very simple pattern can be seen at a glance just by standing in the courtyard.There are three main rooms, the hall is in the middle, and the bedroom and study are on the left and right.

There are two rooms in the east and west, one in the west is the residence of Hao Danian and his wife, and the other is vacant.The east wing is the kitchen and utility room.

At a glance, that's it.

Qin Dewei couldn't help but question: "Didn't Mr. Zeng just say that it is close to a waterscape?"

Mr. Zeng took Qin Dewei through the central hall of the main room and saw a puddle behind the room.

"Look, the pond waterscape, quiet and elegant, suitable for reading!" Mr. Zeng said intoxicated.

puddles?pond?The corners of Qin Dewei's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain, "This puddle can be considered a pond. I'm afraid it will dry when the sun is brighter in summer, right?"

Mr. Zeng quickly explained: "No, it's living water. You see there is a water channel leading to the outside channel, and then you look at the back wall, and there is a water gate."

Qin Dewei was noncommittal and suggested, "Look around again?"

Mr. Zeng quickly followed, "Then I'll show you the way!"

Out of the courtyard gate, on the right side of the courtyard wall is an unremarkable, short and weak river, and nothing else can be seen.Qin Dewei couldn't help but question again: "Mr. Zeng, you said it's next to a famous place, where is it?"

Mr. Zeng pointed to the river and said, "Look, this is the famous Jiuqu Qingxi! Isn't this a scenic spot?"

Qingxi, which originates from Zijin Mountain and flows into Qinhuai River, is artificially excavated. It is only more than ten miles long but twists and turns, so it is called Jiuqu Qingxi.

It is one of the symbols of the cultural imagery of the six dynasties. Even today, the Nanjing literary circle has made the poetry club called the Qingxi Poetry Club.

But, but, three times but, the scenery of Jiuqu Qingxi is more than a thousand years ago!

After more than a thousand years, in the ninth year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, the misty Jiuqu Qingxi had long since been blocked, and only a small section of the Qinhuai River remained.

After understanding the anecdote, Qin Dewei turned his eyes back to the short and powerless river. Mr. Zeng didn't lie, and he was really close to the scenic spot. Who dares to say that Qingxi is not a scenic spot?

Qin Dewei has no more extra ideas. Now he just wants to know, how to explain "condensing the place of culture and contaminating the scholarly family"?

Mr. Zeng pointed to the south and said, "Look, walking along Qingxi and crossing Huaiqing Bridge is Gongyuan Street, next to Gongyuan is Yingtianfu School. Why isn't it a place for condensing Wenhua, stained with scholarly family? "

"If I buy a house here, can I go to the school directly?" Qin Dewei asked innocently.

Mr. Zeng asked in surprise: "Of course not. If you pass the exam as a scholar, you have to be an excellent student to enter the university. What do you think?"

Qin Dewei pouted, no matter how close the house is to the school, there is no such thing as the property of the school district. At this point, it is considered that the house is finished. To be honest, he is a bit discouraged.

It is close to the Gongyuan Cultural District and the entertainment district on the south bank of Qinhuai, but it is a little bit far from the Jiangning County Government Office.In the future, if Master Feng was promoted to the Censor of Nancheng, it would be farther from the court, and it would not be very convenient to go to work.

In fact, it is not a big problem to walk a few more steps. It is better than running from the Xu family in Beicheng, but the biggest problem is that there are three servants left in the house. It costs more to support them. Is it worth it?
Dong and He Zhi's case has not been finalized yet, and Nancheng officials are involved, so the process will be longer. The money that he feeds Dong Caotou can not be returned as evidence of stolen goods, and he still has to wait.

I had already asked Mrs. Gu to help me advance the capital to prepare the money shop, so how could I be embarrassed to borrow money?

As for Wang Lianqing, I owe two hundred minus fifty taels, and if I go to borrow it, I may still borrow it, but I dare not look for it again.

There is also Feng Xiancheng, a big dog, who gave all the money he had left to the magistrate, but he was unwilling to ask his family for money, let alone borrowing money out, and he was counting on himself to help him earn pocket money!
Under Mr. Zeng's hopeful gaze, Qin Dewei said, "After thinking about it, it might be more appropriate to rent a house near Jubaomen."

Mr. Zeng sighed: "I see that you have done a lot in the county office, and you have a few talents. I originally thought that it should not be a big problem for you to bear a few people. Now it seems that it is difficult for me to be strong."

Just as he was talking, Qin Dewei suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a big construction going on in the downstream direction of Qingxi next to him. He pulled a local resident to ask about the situation.

The man replied, "Because this place is near Qingxi and Gu Tao Yedu, the patron of the literary alliance, Mr. Gu, plans to build a garden here!"

Qin Dewei turned his head and asked, "Mr. Zeng, did you bring the title deed?"

Mr. Zeng said suspiciously: "What do you want the title deed for?"

Qin Dewei said sincerely: "I look at your face, and in the future, it will definitely rise to the sky, so I probably won't live in Nanjing for a long time, just sell this house to me!"

Mr. Zeng: "."

The maid Liu Yue, who had been silent all the time beside her, couldn't understand either. Who is flickering who is here today?
 Last night I heard that Shui Ye Ye, who wrote about the Tang Dynasty, passed away at the age of forty-two, hey.
