Rebirth of the beauty of the peasant girl

Chapter 171
Li Beibei agreed to return the money to Zhu Ba, and Liu Qingluo settled the score.

What needs to be returned to Zhu Ba is 250 taels plus 180 taels, which means a total of 430 taels, so they still have a total of 570 taels of silver left.

This money is enough for them to live comfortably in Kyoto after deducting the expenses of house rental.

The two of them finished their discussion and took the carriage to the gate of the small courtyard located in Huazhi Hutong, but unexpectedly saw an old man squatting at the gate.

Liu Qingluo recognized the old man as the owner of the dental shop, got out of the car quickly, and said happily, "Boss, you're here so soon? I'm about to move here."

"Let the pavilion master know everything, dare I not come..."

The old man muttered under his breath and stood up.

He was wearing a large cotton robe and a small melon skin hat, with his hands in the armholes, and his expression was a bit ashamed.

When Liu Qingluo saw him like that, her heart skipped a beat, and she asked tentatively, "Is there something wrong? The house can't be rented?"

The old man's face became even more bitter when he heard it: "No, no, how can I not rent it, I have to rent it to you! If the matter can't be done, my eight bones will not be tossed to death..."

Li Beibei came over curiously: "What did you say? Who tormented you?"

"Nothing, no one. Hehehe..."

The old man took out a paper bag from the big cotton robe, handed it over, and said listlessly: "The land deed, house deed and contract are all here, you can read it yourself, after reading it, sign and draw a note."

"Little Qing'er sign!" Li Beibei took it over, stuffed the paper bag into Liu Qingluo's hand, and jumped into the yard carrying the burden of two people.

Liu Qingluo smiled at the old man, walked into the yard, and sat down at the stone table under the tree, then took out the things in the paper bag, spread them on the table, and looked over carefully.

The things inside are actually very simple, the house deeds and land deeds are all named by the same person - Zhang Songbai.

The name was very unfamiliar, Liu Qingluo only confirmed that the address was the same as the yard, and put it down to look at the contract.

The contract also clearly stated that the monthly rent was 20 taels, and the deposit was 40 taels, all of which were agreed in advance.

After carefully watching from beginning to end, Liu Qingluo felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so Liu Qingluo took out Li Beibei's brush and signed her name.

She thought it was too heavy, so she didn't bring her own paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

Seeing the old man, he took out another box of ink pads and asked her to press her fingerprints.

There are two copies of the contract, one for each person.

Liu Qingluo stuffed the house deed and a contract back into the bag, returned it to the old man, took out another 100 taels of silver and gave it to him, and said with a smile: "Boss has made a special trip. You take a break, and I'll pour tea."

The old man seemed to have regained his energy, and said with a chuckle: "I won't drink tea, and the shady people here didn't start the stove. You have settled your affairs here, and I have good wine to drink when I go back, haha!"

Liu Qingluo smiled: "Then I won't delay your old man's drinking."

"Haha, you're quite a sensible kid, not like that who...cough! Then what, I'm leaving if I have nothing to do, see you later!"

The old man shook his big cotton robe and walked away.

It wasn't until he walked away that Liu Qingluo remembered that she never asked the old man what to call him.

Anyway, his shop is not far from here, so it's not too late to ask again when we meet next time.Thinking of this, she rest assured that the contract was properly kept.

Over there, Qi Yong has already led the horse, settled the horse in the stable, and went to find fodder.Liu Qingluo fetched some water from the well and poured it to the white horse, and prepared the rest to boil some hot water, when Li Beibei came out of the house with a strange expression.

"Xiao Qing'er, how much is this house for a month?"

"Hey, didn't I tell you? It's 20 two months. What's the matter, are you not satisfied with the house?" Liu Qingluo looked at her strangely.

Li Beibei has always had the highest demands on food. Although she has been served by others since she was a child, she is actually careless and doesn't care about living.

"It's not dissatisfaction, but...too satisfied." She pinched the sapphire bracelet in her hand, frowned, "I went to the house to look, and the furnishings and furniture inside are all great. So Well, that old man of my father is considered a generous person to himself, but the furnishings in his room are not even half as good as here!"

When Liu Qingluo saw this point yesterday, she also found it strange.

But then she thought about it, the owner here was an official in Kyoto and returned to his hometown.

It is not an exaggeration for someone who can be an official in Kyoto to set up such an exquisite small courtyard for himself.

"Ah! You mean this is the home of a high official?"

Li Beibei was surprised.

"Yeah, so it's normal to arrange it better. Don't worry about it. Think about what we have for lunch."

As soon as lunch was mentioned, Li Beibei regained his energy immediately, rolled up his sleeves and said, "My hands are itching, I haven't cooked for a long time, just wait, I'll make a good meal for you!"

She grabbed the purse and ran out.

Liu Qingluo was worried that she would not be safe alone, so she asked Qi Yong to follow her.

She fetched a bucket of water herself, found a rag, and cleaned the bedroom.

Although the room was already very clean, she still didn't miss a single place, and she was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a study room with high bookshelves on three walls, filled with books!

Unexpectedly, the owner of the house actually left these books behind.

Overjoyed, she wiped the floor of the study with a rag so that people could be seen, and it was spotless.Then I sat down and picked out a book.

This book is a travelogue, and it talks about the scenery and local customs of various places, which is quite interesting.

Liu Qingluo was fascinated, until she was awakened by the noise outside.

She closed the book and went outside, only to find that it was Li Beibei and Qi Yong who had returned, followed by Uncle Liu and Liu Meili.

After coming here for two days, she almost forgot about the father and daughter.

How did they find it here?

"Why are you here? Believe it or not, I will report to the police!" Li Beibei yelled at Uncle Liu and his daughter.

Qi Yong looked helpless.

Second Uncle Liu acted like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, he forced his way through the door, saw Liu Qingluo, and exclaimed with joy: "My niece, I knew you were here too!"

Good niece!

Look at the chubbyness!

When I drove them out back then, why couldn't I remember my good niece!
Liu Qingluo stood at the door without moving, and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"

"Niu Niu, you don't know, after we disembarked, we stayed at the ferry for one night, and in the end our money was stolen! God damn stinky hooligans! Robbed in broad daylight!"

Second Uncle Liu snotted and burst into tears, and continued, "Then we didn't have the money to hire a car. After walking for two days, we finally arrived in Kyoto. Alas, you don't know how much Uncle Second has suffered."

Liu Qingluo looked at his pampered face, and said coldly, "What kind of hardship can you suffer? It's just that no one will help you with the laundry and cooking!"

"It's more than that, now the second uncle and your beautiful sister really have nothing to do, and the inn in this capital is too expensive! Fortunately, we saw you and your beautiful classmate on the road, so I knew that you must live with her!"

Liu Qingluo sarcastically said, "You're pretty smart."

Second Uncle Liu sat down on the stone bench, as if he would never leave again, "Oh, Niuniu, your yard is nice, how about this, let your beautiful sister live in the main room!"
