Chapter 81 Glaze Hairpin

The widow Wei who rented a house in Qiao Muchao was named Wei Lan. Since her husband died of illness, she had been raising two children by herself, and her life was tight.

Fortunately, she was hardworking and capable, and despite the hardship, she still insisted on letting her two sons study.

This house had been rented to others before, but she always felt that those men who ran around in the world were so fierce and difficult to get along with, and she was afraid that they would spoil the child.

Scholars are easy to get along with, but most of the scholars who come to rent a house here are alone. As time goes by, there are always people behind them, pointing fingers with malicious intentions.

That day, she learned that An Jingchen was a scholar and already married, so she immediately decided to lower the house price.

This time the scholar brought his wife and children with him, so everyone probably has nothing to say.Judging from Qiao Mu Yao's conversation, it shouldn't be difficult to get along with him.

Facts have proved that she has a good vision. Qiao Muchao, who has nothing to do during this period, occasionally helps her take care of the flowers and plants.If the children don't understand something, they can go to An Jingchen for advice, and he will explain it tirelessly.

When Qiao Mu Yao and Yelu Shaoqing returned, Wei Lan had already picked a small basket of loquats and was pruning the flowers and leaves in the yard with scissors.

Previously, I thought that she planted these flowers and plants purely for ornamental purposes.

On the second day after moving in, Qiao Muchao saw her cutting off the brightly blooming peonies and putting them in a wooden bucket filled with water. Only then did Qiao Mu Yao realize that these flowers could be sold for money.

And the price is not low. A peony flower can be sold for a penny at the night market, which makes Qiao Mu Yao envious.

This big city is really different. As long as you work a little harder, you can convert anything into money.If you try it in Maple Creek City, no one will want a handful of money.

"Sister-in-law Lan, are you going to sell flowers again tonight?" Qiao Muyao walked over and helped her sort out the dead leaves.

"That's it. From now on, we should sell jasmine and zinnias." Wei Lan raised her head and smoothed her forehead hair, "Go and eat loquats, they just fell from the tree."

During this period of time, Qiao Muyao had rubbed against her a lot of loquats, and Qiao Muyao's teeth were going to be sour, so he thanked her for her kindness and asked about the situation in that swamp.

Just now, Shaoqing and I climbed up the hillside and took a closer look at the swamp. A large area of ​​the swamp was on the other side of the mountain. It was not known whether it was under the jurisdiction of Jingshui Village.

When Wei Lan heard her question, she smiled softly at her: "Are you talking about Jingshui Lake? The reason why our place is called Jingshui Village is because of that lake. Fish were raised in that lake before, but since the He family moved away It was desolate.”

Qiao Muyao was taken aback, "What does the He family do?"

"As for the swamp you see today, the mountain is also the property of the He family. They used to raise chickens and cattle on the mountain, grow lotus roots and raise fish in the pond. They were a well-known wealthy family in Jingshui Village. Later, their son passed the imperial examination and moved there In Kyoto, I heard that I donated money to the capital officials, but I don’t look down on this little bit of industry in the village..."

If this is the case, it would be a good thing.

Qiao Muyao was secretly delighted, "The He family left and never came back? Did the family's property be entrusted to others?"

"It's just that Mr. He came back a few years ago, and the property is said to be entrusted to Li Zheng." Wei Lan was taken aback suddenly, "You inquired so clearly, don't you want to sell it?"

During this time, she inquired about the house with herself, and Wei Lan knew that she was interested in settling down and buying property.

Qiao Muyao didn't hide it, "I have this intention. I'm afraid I'll have to ask you for an introduction."

Over the years, those who settled in the village would first buy a few acres of land. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, she would buy a lake or a mountain.

Wei Lan secretly clicked her tongue. Although the land in this forest and swamp is not as valuable as the land, how can you dare to think about such a large area without a few hundred taels of silver?

With hundreds of taels of silver lying around, they stayed in their own home instead of staying in a hotel. This family is really a real person!
Wei Lan smiled faintly, "Everyone buys a house first, and then buys land. Why did Madam Qiao come up with the idea of ​​the lake instead?"

Qiao Muyao also paid attention to the houses in the village that were for sale in the past two days, but there was not a single one that she liked.

Then Zhaozhi said: "Jingchen and I are both afraid of trouble and always want to buy a house that can be moved into and move in. It's not like we haven't found the right one yet." Wei Lan's eyes suddenly lit up, "If you don't mind the high price, Then the He family’s house is just right!”

After her guidance, Qiao Muchao knew that the small courtyard with two entrances and two exits at the end of the village was the He family's old house.

Qiao Muyao fell in love with the small courtyard with pink walls and dark tiles, elegant and sunny.

"That house looks nice, but I don't know how much money it will cost." Qiao Muyao picked off a peony leaf with insect eggs.

"Someone asked before and heard that the price is five to six hundred taels." Wei Lan stared at the handsome young man at the intersection and said, "Your husband-in-law is back. Didn't he go to take the third test of the college? Today he is the first My God, the sun hasn’t even set yet, why is he back?”

Qiao Muyao quickly turned around, only to see An Jingchen, who was tall and tall, carrying a suitcase and cage on his back, heading towards the setting sun.

"Maybe the exam is over."

Qiao Muyao greeted him with a smile. It took him less than a day and a half to hand in the first and second games.

As a result, most of those waiting outside remembered this young man with handsome appearance and excellent temperament.

I thought he would not be able to hand in the paper until tomorrow like the previous two games, but he didn't expect to come back so early.

Qiao Muyao went up to him and asked, "How was this scene?"

An Jingchen still said calmly: "It's okay."

When I asked him in the first two games, he said the same thing. Qiao Muyao didn't understand the imperial examination, and he didn't know what the standard was for being good.

After he finished washing, Qiao Muchao was about to tell him about buying a house and land, but An Jingchen took out a small wooden box from the cage and handed it to her.

"What is this?" Qiao Muyao took it and asked.

An Jingchen smiled and said, "Open it and take a look."

Ever since he learned that Qiao Muyao was worried about his health and followed him to Fucheng, An Jingchen no longer stingy with his smile.

He took off his previous cold and arrogant guard and replaced it with warmth.

This smile looked very warm and reassuring. Qiao Muyao took it and took a look and found that it was a smoky purple hairpin.

Qiao Muchao has always loved purple, and this jade and flower-glazed hairpin with tassels is really stunning.

"This is……"

"When I came back, I passed by a jewelry store and thought this purple glazed hairpin would suit you, so I bought it."

An Jingchen stretched out his slender fingers with clear joints, twisted the hosta, and inserted it into her bun, "Do you like it?"

What special day is today?
So good, why did he suddenly give himself a hairpin?
During this period of time, although the two of them shared the same bed, they did not share the same quilt. An Jingchen was more passionate than polite and had never made any ambiguous move towards her.

This was the first time he gave something to herself, and Qiao Muyao's whole body froze.

Feeling his warm breath on the tips of her hair, she felt her heartbeat speed up...

 Dear friends, it will be on the shelves soon. I don’t know how many people are following it, so I have specially created a group 762606132 with red envelope benefits, waiting for you to tease me!
