Chapter 52, Buying a House

"I finally got rid of that horrible family!"

Successful household separation, divorce, public opinion is still on their side, Li Wuya's family is very happy.

"Father, we are not military households anymore. Tianlingtun is too remote and barren. Let's leave here and make a living elsewhere."

Li Wuya suggested.

Li Qilang responded to Li Wuya the most, and immediately asked, "Then where are we going?"

Li Wuya: "Naturally, you can go wherever the prosperity is."

Personal development is inseparable from the place, just like in the Gobi Desert, where resources are scarce, and if you can do whatever you want, just hunt more and improve your life.

Li Qilang picked out a place to go from his limited knowledge: "Fan Xiucai in the village always said that there is a heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. It must be beautiful there. Why don't we go to the south of the Yangtze River that Fan Xiucai said?"

Li Wuya nodded fiercely: "Yes, yes, the Jiangnan Water Village is the most nourishing place for people. The northwest side is dry and dry. Look at our skin, which is dark and rough, not juicy at all."

Influenced by the old man in Tianchi, Li Qilang is also a beauty lover: "Then we have to take good care of it after we go to Jiangnan."

Seeing the younger sister and younger brother talking more and more vigorously, Li Sanlang had no choice but to interrupt the two of them: "Okay, no matter how beautiful Jiangnan is, it doesn't matter to us, because we can't go there at all."

"why?"

Li Wuya and Li Qilang asked in unison.

Li Sanlang: "In order to prevent the loss of population in the frontier, our household registration cannot be moved out at will."

"what?!"

Li Wuya and Li Qilang frowned.

"Why is this household registration so troublesome?"

"That's right, it won't work if you change from a military household to a civilian household, and you can't move out. It's too difficult to be born in this frontier!"

"That is to say, we want to leave the Northwest?"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it, even if you throw money at it, we have to take it away."

Li Erya nodded Li Wuya's head: "The tone is getting louder and louder, let me ask you, how much money do you have to spend?"

Li Wuya choked, she hadn't told her family about the fact that she brought Li Qilang to Huyan's family and Tianluomen in Rongcheng.

She secretly calculated, that trip, she and Qilang earned at least ten thousand taels of silver, and they were proper little rich women and rich men.

Jin Yue'e looked at the joking children with a smile, then turned to look at Li Changsen: "We have such a trouble with the other side, and I don't want to stay in the village anymore, or should I move to Xining City?"

Li Wuya immediately shook her head and vetoed it: "Xining City is too small, and it's still close to Tianlingtun." Then, she sat next to Li Changsen, "Father, you are the head of the family, where do you think we are going?"

Li Changsen did not answer immediately, but became silent. He stared at the roof for a long time, looked at the four brothers and sisters of Li Sanlang, and said, "Let's go to Rongcheng."

As soon as Rongcheng was mentioned, Jin Yue'e and the others remembered what Li Changsen said in the Li family's courtyard.

Several people wanted to ask about her father's life experience, it can be seen that Li Changsen closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to talk about it, and then silently closed his mouth.

"Okay, your father is going to rest, you all go out, what should you do?"

After coming out of the room, Li Wuya dragged her elder brother and sister to mutter.

"Brother, you said that Dad asked us to go to Rongcheng, do you want to meet relatives?"

"Whether father recognizes it or not, he is our father."

"I don't know this yet." Li Wuya touched his chin, "Father said that man is a general, that is, a general, the family of a general."

Li Qilang looked at her curiously: "Sister, why are you sighing?"

Li Wuya: "I just feel that the family of generals, even if we recognize it, the benefits are not too great."

Hearing this, Li Sanlang and Li Erya stared over.

"What's good and bad? Don't talk nonsense!"

"Wu Ya, if Dad wants to recognize his relatives, it must be based on blood relationship. Don't say so."

Seeing that Li Erya couldn't find the right words for a long time, Li Wuya couldn't help but fill in for her: "Don't be so utilitarian, speaking and closing are all benefits, right?"

Li Erya: "Yes, that's what I mean."

Li Wuya curled her lips: "If recognizing relatives has no practical benefits for our family, why should we recognize them? Brother and sister, please be more realistic, don't live too ideally."

"Dad was changed when he was born. We don't have any relationship with that family, blood relationship. Heh, haven't you suffered enough from the so-called blood relationship in the Li family?"

Li Sanlang and Li Erya were silent.

"Okay, this is not something we should worry about, everything is up to parents."

After confirming that he was going to Rongcheng, Li Wuya took his brother, sister and brother to discuss.

"If you go to Rongcheng, you must have a place to live? Are we going to go into the city to buy a house?"

"Buying a house? How much money will it cost?"

"Don't worry about the money. When we took Dad away from Dieling Pass, Governor Cai sent us 100 taels, which is enough for us to buy a house."

"Do you need to buy a house? Can't you rent a house?"

"It's better to buy a house. Renting a house always feels like floating. It doesn't feel like home at all."

"The Chinese New Year will be in about [-] days, brother, let's go to Rongcheng to look at the house immediately, and try to live in the new house during the Chinese New Year."

"Alright, let's go buy a house now!"

"Then who are going?"

"I'm definitely going." Li Wuya raised her hand without hesitation, "By the way, there is also my brother, I have to go too, he has to come forward to buy a house."

Li Sanlang is fifteen, and he can be considered a half-adult when he is outside, so he will not attract the attention of others when he buys and sells houses.

"I'm going too." Li Qilang followed immediately.

Li Erya also looked moved, but she knew that her father was injured and was bedridden, and one of the siblings had to stay at home to help mother, so she took the initiative and said: "Then I will stay at home."

Li Wuya looked at Li Erya, and put his arms around her neck: "Sister, you are so kind, don't worry, I will definitely choose the best house for our family."

Li Qilang also followed suit, and also stepped forward to hug Li Erya: "Sister, you are really my good sister, I love you to death."

Li Erya rolled her eyes when her siblings embraced her, and hurriedly pushed away these two annoying little goblins. Knowing that her younger sister had big ideas, she couldn't help but give her some advice.

"Brother, you have to watch Wu Ya closely, don't let her mess around."

Li Wuya stared: "When did I mess around?"

Li Sanlang smiled and said something for her: "Wu Ya still knows how to do things properly." After speaking, he got up and went to talk to Li Changsen and Jin Yue'e.

The next day, after breakfast, Li Sanlang took Li Wuya and Li Qilang and set off towards Rongcheng.

Seeing the three children going out, Li Changsen looked a little dazed.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"You said, is it right or wrong for us to move to Rongcheng?"

"This"

Jin Yue'e was a little hesitant. Wu Ya had a good saying, the more prosperous the place, the more opportunities there would be, and the more promising it would be.

Therefore, in order to have a good future for her four children, she agreed to go to Rongcheng from the bottom of her heart.

After all, Rongcheng is the largest city on the border, and the Protectorate of the Western Regions was established there.

However, she also understood her husband's hesitation and worry.

Now that the husband knows his parentage, it is definitely not true to say that he does not want to recognize his biological parents.

She knew that her husband actually longed for the love of his parents, otherwise, facing the harsh treatment of Li's father and Li's mother, he would still be responsible for most of the Li family's livelihood.

But if they come to recognize each other, will they recognize him?
The husband is just a low-grade military general who grew up in a military family, and he is very different from the son and young master of a rich family, and the rich family is the most prestigious.

At this moment, she understands her husband's worry, hesitation and inferiority complex very well.

"The head of the family, the four children in our family are all good. I believe that they can make a difference even by themselves."

Hearing this, Li Changsen stretched out his hand and held Jin Yue'e's hand tightly.

Does he want to meet his relatives?
want.

On the one hand, I want to know what kind of people my biological parents are, and on the other hand, I also want to plan for the four children.

Children from good families and children from ordinary families, even if they are as shallow as him, still know the huge difference.

But, do people want to recognize him?
His wife saw his worries in this regard, so she comforted him, which made him very heart-warming. With her understanding and support, he could breathe a sigh of relief.

At his age, it doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, he's afraid that he will delay his four children.

Jiang's family in Guangwei General's Mansion.
Before that, he just inquired about the Jiang family roughly, and he still didn't know anything about the situation of the Jiang family.

Forget it, let's wait until we go to Rongcheng in the future.

On the other side, on the way to Rongcheng, Li Sanlang was struggling to catch up with his younger siblings who had left him behind.

"Brother, admit defeat, you can't catch up with me."

Li Qilang ran ahead anxiously, looking at Li Sanlang who was following behind him, he felt extremely happy.

Li Wuya smiled and said: "Qilang, you should take it easy, if you are approached by brother, he can knock you down with one punch."

Li Qilang: "I know I'm not good at close combat, so of course I won't let my brother catch up."

That afternoon, the three brothers and sisters arrived under the city wall of Rongcheng.

"Sister, our qinggong has improved again."

It was dark when they came last time, but it was still bright this time.

The three of them entered the city, found an inn to stay in, and began to look at the house early the next morning.

Thanks to the search for Huyan's stronghold in the city last time, Li Wuya now has a preliminary understanding of Rongcheng, and roughly knows the distribution of houses in the four directions of east, west, south, and north.

This saves them a lot of time looking for a house.

100 taels of silver, Li Sanlang originally thought it was a huge sum of money, but after looking at several houses, he realized that 100 taels of silver could not even afford a decent courtyard house.

Either the size is not suitable, or the location is not good, anyway, the price of houses that suit one's wishes basically exceeds one hundred taels.

This stumped Li Sanlang, especially when he saw that Li Wuya and Li Qilang had specially selected a courtyard house with a good location and many rooms, he was even more worried.

"Wuya, Qilang, we don't have much money, why don't we go to the outer city?"

"Outer city? No, the law and order in the outer city is not as good as that in the inner city."

"The inner city is indeed much better than the outer city in all aspects. Why not, but let's choose a smaller yard. You see, our family doesn't have many people. We share one room for parents, one room for me and Qilang, Wuya you One room with Erya, plus the kitchen, four or five rooms are enough."

Li Wuya shook her head even more fiercely: "Brother, we are all grown up, we should have our own room, especially you, you are fifteen, and you should get a wife in two years, how can you live with Qilang for a while?" room?"

"Brother, buying a house is a big deal, and you can't be careless. Let's buy a bigger yard. Even if you have a baby in the future, you won't have no place to live."

Li Sanlang: "." The little girl thought too far, but it was a bit expensive.

Looking at her brother's sad face, Li Wuya suddenly realized: "Brother, are you worried that you don't have enough money?"

Li Sanlang glanced at her and said in his heart that he had reacted.

Who doesn't want a large yard with a great location and lots of room?
Isn't it just that the money is not enough!

Li Wuya thought that she should tell her brother about Bai Yueguang and Hei Lianhua's disturbance in Rongcheng, and was considering how to speak, when Li Qilang said proudly: "Brother, money is not a problem, we have money!"

Li Sanlang glanced at him: "Where did you get the money?"

Li Qilang quickly looked at Li Wuya.

Li Wuya didn't care about it anymore, and directly told Li Sanlang everything she did with Li Qilang when they came to Rongcheng last time.

"From the stronghold of Huyan's family and Tianluomen, we should have earned about 10,000 taels of silver. Therefore, the money for buying a house is definitely enough, and there is still money left over to buy land."

Li Sanlang was stunned when he heard that, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was half opened, and he looked at his younger siblings in front of him with a dumbfounded expression.

Get rid of Huyan's stronghold!

Destroy the lair of Tianluomen, the first organization in the Northwest!

Oh my god, is Wuya telling him the bible?
Looking at his younger siblings who were only waist high, Li Sanlang felt as if he was dreaming. This incident had too much impact on him, so he had to take it easy.

However, seeing Li Wuya take out more than ten ingots and ten taels of silver, he had to wake up even if he wanted to dream.

Li Sanlang's eyes were extremely complicated. Looking at his younger siblings at this moment, he really felt that he was weak: "You... are you really" so awesome?
Li Qilang cheered and helped him make up: "Brother, Fifth Sister and I are good, right?"

Li Sanlang: "Ox!"

After touching the silver for a while, Li Sanlang finally calmed down. As soon as he calmed down, he sensed the danger inside, and said with a full face of disapproval:

"You are too courageous, how dare you provoke the Huyan family and Tianluomen? Have you ever thought about what will happen to you if they have many people, if you lose to them?"

Li Wuya snorted: "If the Huyan family dares to stare at you on the battlefield, I dare to take down their stronghold. If I do this, it can be regarded as a good deed for the country and the people."

"As for Tianluomen, they are going to kill me and Qilang, of course I have to take the initiative to attack, otherwise, are we really waiting for them to kill me?"

"Assassination organizations are all doing assassination. No one is innocent. They either kill or are killed. There is nothing to say."

After speaking, he smiled confidently.

"Brother, don't worry about my work. Since I dare to bring Qilang to the door, I am sure of it. I cherish my life very much and will not mess around."

Li Sanlang sighed, the little girl is so courageous, she dared to take her younger brother to destroy the Beiyan spy and assassination sect at the age of ten, can he rest assured?

The second sister's advice was right, he had to take good care of the younger sister.

Li Wuya pushed the money to Li Sanlang: "Brother, don't worry about the money, go and choose the yard boldly."

Li Sanlang silently put the money into his pocket, it felt good not to worry about the money, but he would be happier if his younger siblings were not so bold.

In the end, after negotiation between the three brothers and sisters, they bought a two-entry courtyard house in Dongcheng, one street away from Fuxue.

The former owner of this courtyard was a scholar, and the courtyard was tidy.

Entering from the gate facing the street is the screen wall, and on the left side of the screen wall is a moon gate. When entering, there are three inverted houses, plus a stable for carriages and horses. There is also a well dug next to the stable.

The inverted room is facing the vertical flower gate, and the vertical flower gate is flanked by chashou verandas, and the courtyard where you live is when you enter.

There are three upper rooms, one bright and two dark, and a side room on the left and right; the east and west wing rooms are also three rooms, one bright and two dark, and many plants are picked and planted in the courtyard.

Whether it is Li Sanlang, Li Wuya, or Li Qilang, they are very satisfied with this yard.

One is that the location is good, and the other is that the yard is neither too big nor too small, and there are not too many rooms, which just meet the needs of their family.
