Chapter 84

Only then did Wei Chenrui nod in satisfaction: "Then follow the market price, and Huixin will give the shopkeeper ten taels of silver."

The shopkeeper waved his hands again and again: "Where do you want so much, the market price of Jiangling City, such a small house, the rent is only one tael a month, ten taels can be rented for a year."

Jiangling is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is a relatively prosperous city with many merchants coming and going. The house price will naturally rise, and one tael of silver a month is also normal.

Wei Chenrui smiled and said, "How does the shopkeeper know that I won't rent for a year?"

The shopkeeper laughed and said: "You really know how to joke, who are you, as your shopkeeper, how can I not know."

"With your status, you will definitely not stay in Jiangling for a long time. There are many things that need you to worry about, so don't delay!"

The shopkeeper is very thoughtful, and Wei Chenrui didn't want to embarrass him, so he smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, you can accept it at ease, the ten taels of silver is not only the rent, but also the food for the few of us."

"Except for the rent, the rest of the money depends on the arrangement. I will stay here for about seven or eight days. After the martial arts conference is over, I will leave for Beijing."

With Wei Chenrui's words, the shopkeeper felt relieved, nodded and said, "In that case, the little one will accept it!"

Hui Xin handed over the ten taels of silver at the right time.

After receiving the money, the shopkeeper said goodbye: "Master, the younger one will go down and make arrangements. The bedding and other things in the house are all complete, and the younger one often hires a woman to come and clean it. It was just cleaned two days ago. You can rest in peace."

Wei Chenrui nodded and said: "Okay, there is Huixin here, so you don't need to follow me to serve you, go get busy, and deliver the food for the few of us on time!"

"Yes, my little one will leave!" After speaking, the shopkeeper withdrew.

After a few days of trekking, Wei Chenrui was really tired and flustered. Although the carriage was shockproof and there was no bump, it was uncomfortable to sit for a long time.

The martial arts conference hadn't started yet, so Wei Chenrui didn't need to be in a hurry, so he was ready to take a good rest.

However, Wei Chenrui still remembered that there was a junior brother who needed to take care of him, so instead of going to rest on his own, he turned to Xuanming and asked, "Junior brother, are you tired, do you want to take a rest?"

Xuan Ming actually didn't feel very tired, he wanted to go out for a walk, but seeing Wei Chenrui's tiredness, he didn't say anything sensible, fearing that Wei Chenrui would accompany him to go out for a walk, which would only make him more tired.

So, pretending that she was also quite tired, she yawned and said, "Elder Sister, I'm tired and want to take a rest."

Wei Chenrui didn't bother to think about whether he was telling the truth or a lie. After all, Xuan Ming was still growing up, and it didn't matter if he slept a little longer, so he told Hui Xin to make the bed.

Of course, Huixin was only responsible for laying out Wei Chenrui's, Xuanming's and her own. As for the two big men, they would naturally shop by themselves.

Huixin was still very fast, and after a while, the bed was made and Wei Chenrui went to rest.

After a tiring journey, Wei Chenrui fell asleep as soon as he got into the warm and comfortable bed.

As for Xuan Ming, Wei Chenrui had already left her behind, and she was relieved to handle things wisely.

With wisdom, Xuanming will definitely be taken care of well, and Wei Chenrui doesn't need to worry about it.

This time, Wei Chenrui slept for a full three hours and missed lunch directly. When Wei Chenrui woke up, it was already dark.

Although he slept continuously for a long time, Wei Chenrui wasn't sleepy yet, and he was quite awake.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Wei Chenrui tidied his clothes and hair before stroking his stomach that had begun to resist, before leaving the room.

Huixin lived in the small room next to Wei Chenrui, and when she heard the door opening, she knew she was awake, so she quickly came out to wait on her: "Your Highness, you are awake, this servant is going to fetch water for you to wash."

Wei Chenrui was too hungry right now, so he didn't want to linger any longer, so he said, "I'll go with you, wash up quickly, so I can have dinner, my stomach is starting to grow."

"Yes, Your Highness, come with me!" After saying that, Hui Xin led the way.

After a good night's sleep, Wei Chenrui, who was not confused, thought of his junior brother again, and asked, "By the way, is Xuan Ming awake?"

Hui Xin nodded and said: "I woke up a long time ago. After all, Young Master Xuan Ming is still young and has more energy. He hasn't driven for a few days. He is not as tired as you. He only woke up after sleeping for half an hour."

"I couldn't stay idle even after waking up, and together with Hu Yinghao who also couldn't stay idle, the two of them went out for a stroll. They ate a full belly and brought back a lot of gadgets."

"Who paid for it? It couldn't be Xuanming, right?" Wei Chenrui knew that Hu Yinghao had no money.

Hui Xin said: "Of course not, Hu Yinghao paid for it!"

Wei Chenrui's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "No, where did Hu Yinghao get the money? Isn't he always keeping money?"

Huixin explained: "He didn't have any money before, and the servants knew that they were going out, so they gave Hu Yinghao this month's monthly payment to him."

"You know what kind of temperament he is. If he has money, he will definitely spend it. Instead of letting him spend it for outsiders, it is better to spend it for Young Master Xuanming."

Unexpectedly, Huixin would do this, Wei Chenrui couldn't help praising: "Yes, Huixin, you have my demeanor!"

Hui Xin was quite modest, and didn't ask for credit. She said with a smile, "I've been with His Highness for ten years, and I've been able to learn some of His Highness's demeanor."

"Here we are, sit down for a while, and this servant will pour water for you." After saying that, he went to the kitchen, arranged Wei Chenrui to sit at the stone table outside, and then Huixin went in to pour water.

Not sure when Wei Chenrui needed water to get up, Huixin never put out the fire in the stove and let it warm the water.

He scooped up a ladle of hot water, put a finger in it, tested the water temperature, added some cold water, and after confirming that the water temperature was right, he took the basin out and took the washcloth out as well.

Putting the water basin on the stone table, Huixin handed over the washcloth and said, "Your Highness, this servant will not wait for you to wash, but prepare dinner for you."

After taking the washcloth, Wei Chenrui nodded and said, "Go ahead, just finish cooking the noodles, and the speed should be fast."

Knowing that Wei Chenrui was really hungry, Huixin naturally wouldn't delay, nodded and said: "Don't worry, the shopkeeper of Huimin Study has already sent someone to deliver dinner, and the slaves just need to heat it up."

"Okay, then you go!" After finishing speaking, Wei Chenrui began to wash up.

Huixin went to the kitchen to warm up food for Wei Chenrui.

After drinking and eating, Wei Chenrui was going to see Xuan Ming, and by the way to digest food: "Which room is Xuan Ming in? Take me to see!"

"Master Xuanming has already turned seven years old, so he is not suitable to live in the inner courtyard with you, so the slaves arranged for him to live in the outer courtyard, An Shisan and Hu Yinghao live next to him, there will be no problem in terms of safety."

This arrangement is really suitable, Wei Chenrui has nothing to criticize, nodded and said: "The arrangement is very good, let's lead the way!"
