peasant girl

Chapter 385, Leaving the Qin Mansion to Stand on Its Own (2 more

Zhu Xiao smiled and said nothing.

Turn around and make the bed.

This servant girl is not elegant, she thinks that they don't need to flatter them, and if they want to leave anyway, it's good not to offend them.

What if you change the maids next to Miss Fifth and Miss Six?How dare she be so arrogant?

But she didn't dare to stir up trouble, she lived in peace and stability for half a month, and then left with Axiu and the minibus.

It's just that there are some things that I still want to say to Axiu.

Axiu has a temper and likes to inquire about news.

"Axiu!"

"Huh?" Axiu looked up at Zhu Xiao.

Zhu Xiao gently smoothed Axiu's hair, "Axiu, don't inquire about everything in the mansion, whether it's people or affairs, don't go out for a walk, after half a month, we'll leave!"

"..."

Axiu looked at Zhu Xiao, slightly surprised.

She was not a stupid girl, and soon realized.

Nod to Zhu Xiao.

With Axiu's guarantee, Zhu Xiaocai felt relieved.

This mansion seems to be the housekeeper of the eldest wife. Although Mrs. Qin is a mother-in-law, but the eldest wife has been in the mansion for many years, Zhu Xiao is thinking, it is best not to cause trouble, spend half a month in peace, leave, and go Find a yard to do business with.

As for Xun Muyang...

Zhu Xiao let out a slight breath.

She misses him, but she won't go to him either.

He had calculated everything, but he forgot one thing. She said that she would not forgive the second time about leaving without saying goodbye.

Even if you forgive him in the end, let Xun Muyang understand that there are some mistakes, even if you have various reasons, mistakes are mistakes.

If this relationship really came to an end, Xun Muyang was half wrong and she was half wrong.

Xun Muyang's fault was not trusting her, her fault was not being strong enough to work hard enough.

Since Zhu Xiao wants to avoid disturbances, she will not move around. She is so stable, even if Qin Sheng intends to keep her and Xiaoba, but seeing how sincere the two want to leave, it is not easy to force them to stay, just wait for half a month Finally, let Zhu Xiao and Xiaoba leave.

There is also Axiu.

In the blink of an eye and half a month, Zhu Xiao had already packed up his bags, and took Axiu to bid farewell to Mrs. Qin.

When she went, several granddaughters of Mrs. Qin were there, looking at her one by one, a little surprised, after all, it is rare for a little cook to not provoke the master of the house because she looks so good.

"You really don't want to stay?" Mrs. Qin asked.

"Back to the old lady, yes!" Zhu Xiao nodded slightly.

Mrs. Qin was a little disappointed, "Then what are you going to do? Go back to Chengpu County?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet. If I want to go back or stay in the capital, I will come to the mansion to say something!"

"That's fine too!"

Mrs. Qin didn't want to force her to stay, but she rewarded Zhu Xiao with a golden hairpin. Zhu Xiao thanked carefully and took Axiu away.

When they arrived at the kitchen, the minibus was already there, Zhu Xiao spent some money and asked the mansion to take them to Beicheng in a carriage.

There are four cities in the southeast, northwest and north. The east city is home to the emperor's relatives, the south city is home to high-ranking officials and ministers, the west city is home to wealthy businessmen and rich people, and the north city is populated by ordinary people, which is also the most densely populated place.

The small hermit hides in the forest, the big hermit hides in the city, Zhu Xiao thought, Beicheng is the most suitable place for them to go.

Once in Beicheng, it would be very difficult to find a person unless there was a blanket search.

What's more, he is still a person who hides at home and doesn't come out very often.

The carriage sent the three of them to Beicheng, and then they went back to the Qin Mansion.

Looking at the people coming and going, Zhu Xiao let out a deep breath, and tightened Axiu beside her.

Xiaoba has been in the market since he was a child, and what he is most used to is dealing with all kinds of people. He knows that Zhu Xiao has a secret, but he never asks.

"What shall we do next?" asked the minibus.

"..."

Zhu Xiao looked at the minibus, then at Axiu, "Let's find a place to settle down first!"

“住客栈？”

"No, rent a small yard!" Zhu Xiao said softly.

However, in this place, there is no household registration certificate, and it is still troublesome to rent a yard. The three of them wandered around Beicheng for several days, and lived in the bridge hole several times.

Fortunately, if you have money in your hands, you can endure hardships.

After many twists and turns, I met an aunt.

The aunt's surname is Hong.

Aunt Hong’s family happened to have a yard to rent, and when she registered with a brokerage firm, she had to pay one hundred cash a month, which was more than one or two taels of silver a year. Aunt Hong was reluctant, so she wanted to rent it privately. , she had been looking for candidates, and the three of them came into her sight.

After some conversation, I rented the yard of Mrs. Hong's family for 570 renminbi a month.

A small courtyard with two rooms, a main room, a kitchen, and a well.

The previous tenant also filled the small yard with mud and planted some onions and garlic, but now that he is gone, the things are still there, and they are still growing well.

"Look, there is some furniture in this courtyard. Although it is a little worn out, it is usable anyway. There are also three cauldrons in the kitchen. You can use them for some business. You can see that you can also get in a carriage. It is still very convenient. It's convenient!" Mrs. Hong couldn't help laughing.

Zhu Xiaomo.

Aunt Hong said again, "The three of you brothers and sisters are more than enough to live in, right?"

The minibus nodded quickly, "Yes, what my aunt said is right, we are newcomers and want to settle in the capital, such a yard is very good!"

"That's right, let's sign the contract!"

Mrs. Hong's yard is rented year after year, and the rent is also paid year by year.

After this year, you will have to pay six taels of silver. Aunt Hong said that the furniture and so on are two hundred cash, as long as it is not damaged, there is no need to pay for it.

Seven taels of silver a year.

Xiaoba took out the purse with shaking hands, opened the purse, and found ten small silver coins in it, one for one or two, exactly ten.

After counting seven, they signed an agreement with Aunt Hong, and Aunt Hong took the money and left happily. She went out and met her neighbors and said hello.

As soon as Mrs. Hong left, the three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Sitting on the steps regardless of the image, they looked at each other and laughed.

Although they are not related by blood, they still have feelings when they get along.

Sincere and enthusiastic, they all regard each other as friends and relatives.

They have money in their hands, adding up to more than 1000 taels, but they don't reveal their wealth. Zhu Xiao understands, Xiaoba understands better, and Axiu is small, but she is also smart, so she didn't say anything.

"Now that we have a place to settle down, we have to plan carefully. What to do next, we can't just sit and eat, we have to make money!" Zhu Xiaodao.

Axiu nodded.

Xiaoba looked at Zhu Xiao and nodded slightly.

"But the first step, we have to buy some household items, such as quilts, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and everything else, but there is one thing, I won't go out, I have to take a minibus and you and Axiu go out to buy, and I will tidy up at home!"

"..."

"..."

Xiaoba and Axiu looked at Zhu Xiao.

Xiaoba pursed her lips, "Ah Xiao, you have to tell me the truth, who are you?"

Axiu heard this and looked at Zhu Xiao.

Zhu Xiao looked at the minibus, then at Axiu, and asked softly, "Does it matter who I am?"

"It's not important, but if I know who you are, I can make a choice when something happens, whether to sell you or protect you to leave!" Xiaoba said.

"Xiaoba, you are going too far, we agreed to be brothers and sisters, how can you betray your sister?!" Axiu exclaimed.

His eyes stared angrily at the minibus.
