Chapter 212 That Family of Five

In fact, before the two of them got married, Qin Zhiyi had already taken a fancy to a manor outside the city.

It happened to happen when she was going out when she was idle and bored.

The officials said that their master had not been in Yunyang County for many years, and this manor had to be dealt with. There were radishes and cabbage in it, and even a large piece of winter melon, which fed several pigs and dozens of chickens and ducks.

There are still many places left vacant, and there are seven or eight wing rooms. Although the layout is not inferior to the one she lives in in the city, it is still a good place after all.

Especially the surrounding [-] mu of land, Qin Zhiyi immediately took a fancy to it.

Although she asked her elder brother and sister-in-law in the Qin family village to collect things, fresh vegetables are the best.

Qinjiazhuang is also tens of miles away from Yunyang County, even if you take a bullock cart, it will take more than half a day.

Not to mention the tossing, the dishes delivered were also quite wilted.

Especially in summer, the delivered dishes could not be used in time, and could only be used the next day. Even if she preserved them well, many of them were broken.

It would be the most convenient if you have your own village outside the city, where you grow vegetables, raise poultry, and supply them directly to restaurants.

Now that she has manpower, Zhuangzi has also made up her mind. She plans to go over to negotiate the price if she will be free.

Qin Zhiyi asked He Changxuan to take them to fill their stomachs first, then take them back to the house, wash up, and change into clean clothes.

And she took the carriage with Fei Chengcheng to the manor outside the city.

The guard of Zhuangzi is an old housekeeper, already in his sixtieth year, with a thin beard and gray hair.

When he saw them coming, he greeted them happily.

After all, when they inquired about it yesterday, the old housekeeper told them that the master limited the sale of the manor within this month, and if he couldn't sell it, he couldn't stay here anymore.

Qin Zhiyi understood that if Zhuangzi could not be sold, the old housekeeper would have to move out of here.

So seeing her come again, his eyes were full of joy.

Qin Zhiyi got off the carriage, Fei Chengcheng stretched out his hand to help her off, the old butler came up to him from a distance, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "The madam brought the master along today, but did you fancy this manor?"

Qin Zhiyi nodded: "I took a look at it yesterday and thought it was good, so I'll come and take a look today."

After finishing speaking, she turned her eyes to Fei Chengcheng, and Fei Chengcheng followed and said: "If you think it's appropriate, it's okay to buy it."

The price of this manor and those lands is not expensive at all.

It only cost three hundred taels in total, and Qin Zhiyi took Fei Chengcheng in for a tour. Although there were seven or eight houses, they were all neatly tidied up.

The old housekeeper only lived in one room, and it seemed that he had lived here all along.

There is a vegetable garden outside the house, maybe one person can't grow too much, only a few vegetable fields.

But those vegetables are full of vitality, and the leaves are tender green and plump. It can be seen that they have been carefully taken care of.

She took Fei Chengcheng to look at other places, even the more than [-] acres of land were all planted with wheat, and it was so green and lush at this season, it was really beautiful.

The old housekeeper followed behind and explained: "I am alone, and I am too old to plant so much land. I also told my master that it was originally suggested that he rent it to people nearby, but my master asked me to find someone to spread it." I bought the seeds and said that when the next family takes over, it will be easier to sell."

She nodded and said: "Your master is really a smart businessman. The reason why I took a fancy to your house yesterday was because of the wheat."

The old butler smiled with mixed joy and sorrow.

Qin Zhiyi knew what he was thinking, and handed him the money he had prepared before: "This is the money your master sold the house. After you collect it, according to the original statement, the house includes all the fields outside the house. It's all mine, isn't it?"

The old housekeeper held the money in both hands, and replied respectfully: "If you go back to your wife, that's exactly the case. I will hand over all the house deeds and land deeds to my wife."

She nodded with satisfaction. The wheat is so green and the growth rate is so good. Apart from the old housekeeper's daily maintenance, it also has something to do with whether the land is fertile.

Seeing the old butler still standing there with a bitter expression on his face, Qin Zhiyi said again: "You turn around and give the silver to your master. If he is willing to take you to a new place, he can go or stay as you like. If he refuses to take you , you will still stay here and be your housekeeper."

"I live in the city, and I will often come to see everything in the house, including the poultry inside and the crops outside, and I will bring some people over later to take care of it with you."

Hearing the words, the old butler was already tearful with gratitude.

Since he was eight years old, he has been bought back by his master. He has been diligent and diligent all his life, and he is alone.

She thought she would be taken in by the master for the rest of her life, but who would have thought that the master had a son, and several sons competed for the family property. In the end, only the master was left.

It's hard for the master to break up housework, and he's too old to be the master. When he left, he had been clearly told that he couldn't take him with him.

The little master won't want him as an old trash again. At his age, even looking at the manor, he has already tried his best.

If the manor is bought by someone, he will be left to fend for himself.

And he also made the worst plan, if the new master buys a house and doesn't want him, he will pack up his bags and go out to beg for food. If he can live a day, if he can't survive, he will find a place to dig a hole and bury himself.

Hearing the words of the new master now, he already lost control of his legs and knelt down with a plop.

"Thank you, master, thank you, madam. As long as I can walk, you will hand over this manor to me, and I will take care of it properly."

Fei Chengcheng stretched out his hand to help him up, the old housekeeper was already in tears.

Qin Zhiyi knew that the world was difficult.

There are wars to be fought on the border from time to time, coupled with drought, and because of development, it is already good for ordinary people to live a good life.

And she is just one of the ordinary people. Only by doing her best to open the restaurant well and expand the business can she better benefit the people.

Her heart is so big, if she can do her best, she will do her best, and if she can't, she will do her best.

After returning from the manor, Fei Chengsheng didn't say a word.

Qin Zhiyi gently placed his hand on his, and then said: "Although it is considered a peaceful and prosperous age, but God has not favored us in the past two years, so that is all we can do, and the rest is to live in peace and stability. What do you think?"

She knew what Fei Chengsheng was thinking.

This man's structure is definitely not smaller than hers, but he is not good at expressing it.

After hearing her words, Fei Chengcheng's originally slightly frowned brows relaxed: "Yes."

He responded softly, holding her hand but clenched it slightly: "It will definitely get better and better in the future."

After returning to the house, the family of five was fully dressed.

The old lady seemed to be a little sick, and she had been coughing non-stop since she came out.

The young woman looked at her worriedly, and then whispered a few words in the old woman's ear. The old woman had forcibly held back, but she still coughed.

In this era, if you catch a cold, if you don't treat it in time, it will be fatal.

Fearing that the old woman would infect the two little guys, she hurriedly asked for a face towel to cover her mouth and nose, and changed the carriage to take the family to a house outside the city.

He also specially said to He Changxuan: "When we arrive at the house, arrange for her to live in a room alone. After it is settled, I will ask a doctor to show her."
