hidden old spring

Previously, Su Changan wanted Li Dahu to help her find a larger yard, but she has not been able to find time for the past two days. As she was sitting on the back of the cart, staggering home, she suddenly remembered this. He casually said something to Chen Liu.

"I want to buy a bigger yard, but I don't know if there is one for sale in the city."

Su Changan asked casually, and Chen Liu answered casually.

"There is a winery over there on North Street. It has a big yard. The owner of the winery wants to sell it."

Su Changan became interested.

"How much does the wine shop cost?"

"The owner of the wine shop said that not only will the yard be sold, but also the brewing items inside will be sold. Because they are all old items, the owner of the wine shop said that the price will be at least 800 taels."

"!" Su Changan's eyes widened, he didn't expect it to be so expensive.

"The courtyard is quite big and the location is pretty good. All the merchants in the city live there, but the courtyard is not worth the price."

Su Changan asked again.

"Then why does the owner of the wine shop want to sell the wine shop?"

"The old owner died and a new owner took over. The wine that year went bad and turned into vinegar. The reputation of the time-honored brand was ruined. In addition, the government has been collecting grain for the past five years. Two years ago, they even ordered no more wine. If the business can no longer continue, the owner will sell off the property."

Su Changan couldn't help but be curious.

"Why has the government been collecting grain for the past five years?"

"Let's fight. I heard that the barbarians are dishonest again."

Su Changan nodded as if he understood and did not continue to ask any more questions.

After she returned home, she continued to figure out how to make money. She thought she had some money now, but the 800-tael wine shop once again made her realize that she was still poor.

It was already dark, and Su Changan was lighting a candle and counting money with squinted eyes, when there was a knock on her door.

The door was knocked!
Not to mention Dahuang, who had been alert for a long time, even Su Changan looked over in surprise.

Who was knocking on her door so late, and it was the door of her room.

Before Xiao Huang could call out, a low female voice came.

"Girl, it's me. Do you want to sell your yard?"

Is it...Mother Chen?
Su Changan thought for a while and went down to the kang to open the door for someone. As soon as the door opened, sure enough, Mother Chen was standing there. When she came out, she smiled kindly, as if they had never had any conflict before.

Looking past Mother Chen, Su Changan glanced at the donkey.The donkey was standing not far from Chen's mother, as if he would kick her if she was up to something.

Su Chang'an felt that the reason why Mao Donkey didn't kick Chen's mother as soon as he came up was because the 'respect the old and love the young' rule was implanted in the third-level system.

Su Changan and the donkey looked at each other, and then the donkey backed away, returned to its original resting position, and continued to eat its night meal.

Within the self-feeding rules of the three-level system, eating at night is very important. Eating at night will make you fat!
Therefore, whether donkeys or poultry, they will eat regularly at night.

Mother Chen was obviously afraid of the donkey. She looked back when she heard the donkey's hooves, and smiled when she saw it retreating.

"A very good beast, and he also knows how to protect his family."

Su Changan also smiled and asked.

"What's the matter with you?" Su Changan didn't ask her why she came here so late at night, or why she had to come so late at night.

These words are all nonsense. At Mother Chen's age, Su Changan subconsciously left some dignity for her.

Mother Chen rubbed her hands after hearing Su Changan's greeting. She seemed a little hesitant, but she still said it.

"I heard that you want to buy a yard?" Su Changan felt awkward again because of the honorific.

"Yes, did Chen Liu tell you when he went back?" Mother Chen shook her head and waved her hands.

"No, no, no, it was my child who heard what you said on the street and came back to tell me."

"……Oh."

Mother Chen lowered her voice when she saw that Su Changan was not unhappy.

"I heard you were buying a yard."

"Yes." Mother Chen rubbed her hands again, lowering her voice while rubbing her hands, and said very nervously.

"Well, what do you think of my yard? I, I don't want more. If you give me 150 taels, I will sell the yard."

Su Changan blinked and took two seconds to understand what she was talking about.

"You want to sell the house?" Mother Chen nodded and emphasized again.

"I'll sell it to you for 150 taels. Our two families are next to each other. You just need to open up the wall and it will be a courtyard..." Mother Chen racked her brains and hoped to come up with more advantages of buying her yard. It can be seen that she I really want to sell my yard.

"If you sell the house, where will you live in the future?" Su Changan was just curious, but after a pause, Chen's mother opened up to Su Changan.

"My children have grown up, and I want to sell this yard and then buy another yard inside."

Su Changan hasn't been here long, so he doesn't know. The further you go in the residential area on the west block, the cheaper the housing prices are. Of course, the further you go in, the more dilapidated the courtyards inside are.

So Su Changan didn't understand Mother Chen's underlying logic, and she was still confused.

Mother Chen became anxious when she saw that Su Changan didn't say buy or not buy.

"Do you want to buy it or not? If you do, I can go through the transfer with you tomorrow morning. I only need 150 taels."

It was true that Su Changan wanted to buy a bigger yard, but she was not being taken advantage of. She didn't know the housing prices here, but she could roughly estimate the housing prices on West Street from the prices in Anping County.

These 150 taels are definitely too much.

Therefore, Su Changan looked careless and seemed a little embarrassed.

"I don't have that much money, so I have to think about this again."

After hearing this, Mother Chen became anxious instantly.

"Why do you have no money? Didn't you say you want to buy the wine shop on North Street? You can get 800 taels, but you can't get 150 taels. Don't you want to buy my yard? Don't you think it's expensive?" Chen said Her mother was about to kneel down, but Su Changan was so frightened that he quickly supported her.

"Girl, I need these 150 taels. If you do well, girl, just treat it as a good deed. If you only need 150 taels, I will sell the yard to you."

The old lady was obviously discussing a business one second, but the next second the old lady was going to kneel down and cry and beg for her. Su Changan was frightened. What kind of method was this?
Fortunately, Mother Chen couldn't control the volume in her excitement. Chen Liu, who was at home, heard the noise and stood in the yard and shouted to Su Changan.

"mother!"

With just one sound, the old lady, who was still emotional at first, stopped her voice instantly and stiffened for three seconds. Then she let go of Su Changan's hand, wiped away the tears on her face, and prepared to go back.

But after taking two steps, he didn't give up. He turned around and pretended to be begging again.

"Girl, 150 taels, we agreed."

Who told you this?

Before Su Chang'an could say anything, the old lady had already run to the wall with her legs and feet, and then climbed over very neatly.

Su Changan stood at the door of the room and looked at the wall, feeling somewhat suffocated.

Isn’t this wall too low? Anyone can climb over it!
