The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 110

Everyone made an appointment to go to the city in three days, but Mrs. Xu was still not at ease, so the second steward and mother Zhang took a few wives there first, and tidied up the garden over there, so that they could live there. Be more comfortable.

Although there is no one living in the garden on Bailuzhou, the housekeeper is an old shopkeeper who has stayed in Xie's house since Mrs. Xie's time.Later, when I got older, my eyes couldn't see my head and I couldn't see clearly, so I stepped back to look at the house.His son is now in charge of several jewelry shops in Xiejia City. Hearing that the owner is coming to live for a while, he hastily dismissed the whole family and went into the garden to clean up.

Fortunately, there are always people doing the cleaning work on weekdays, so it didn't take too much effort. When Xie Yujiao and the others passed by three days later, everything should be packed.Except for the bedding on the bed, which was brought by Xie's family, all the other eating and drinking utensils can be used.

Zhou Tianhao and Xu Yuxing sat in a carriage together.These few days they lived in the same yard, and now they are getting acquainted, Xu Yuxing also followed Xu Tianhao and Tianhao's shouts, completely forgetting Zhou Tianhao's identity.Besides, Xu Yuxing discovered that Zhou Tianhao has one advantage, that is, he has no airs at all.The reason why he didn't want to be in the officialdom and preferred to make a living among the merchants was actually because he didn't like the officialdom of those people.Unexpectedly, Zhou Tianhao, a majestic prince, has no airs at all. This is really what Xu said, a good son-in-law that can't be found with a lantern.

"Tianhao, let me tell you, besides the garden on Bailuzhou, Xie's family also has a garden at Mochou Lake. It's been a few years since I bought that garden, and I haven't lived in it yet. Last time you didn't When she came from the north, Jiaojiao originally said she would sell it, but later she felt that the place was good, so she was a bit reluctant, so she hasn’t made a move yet.” Now that the imperial court has moved south, and there is a temporary truce with the Tatars, it’s time to go back. I'm afraid it's impossible, so the house price in Jinling may still go up online.

After Zhou Tianhao heard this, he understood a little bit in his heart, and he just smiled and said, "Did Jiaojiao tell you the idea of ​​building this house?"

Xu Yuxing just nodded and said: "No, I didn't think of this at the time. I always felt that although the money was easy to earn, it was meant to be a fortune for the country."

Zhou Tianhao laughed, but thinking about it, Xie Yujiao would definitely not give up such a business opportunity when she looked so shrewd and capable.Back in ancient times to speculate in real estate, it was thanks to her that she figured it out.

The carriage swayed on the road for more than an hour. After getting off the carriage, Housekeeper Liu Er and Mama Zhang greeted him at the door.Xie Yujiao helped Mrs. Xu get out of the car, then turned around and carried the sleepy Xie Chaozong out of the car, and ordered the servants who came out to greet the guests to move their things in first, and then told Liu Fugen another thing .

"Second steward, take some presents and go to Mrs. Zhou's doctor's house to lie down. If he is free, please come over to our place."

The second housekeeper Liu nodded when he heard the words, and now the Xie family, from Mrs. Xu to the fire-burning women in the kitchen, all know that Zhou Tianhao is the future son-in-law of the Xie family, who would dare not be courteous.

"Miss is exhausted all the way, let's go to rest inside first, and the slave will go to Zhou Tai Physician's house to invite someone."

At this time Xu Yuxing and Zhou Tianhao also got off from the carriage behind, Xu Yuxing heard Xie Yujiao's order to invite the imperial physician, he was still puzzled and said: This Jiaojiao usually looks a little careless, but this kind of man is quite reliable, no wonder she has such a temper Come and go, Zhou Tianhao, an imposing man, was devoured to death by her.

Just as Xu Yuxing was thinking about it, the eldest aunt in the car behind got off with her two children.Baozhu got out of the car and saw Xu Yuxing standing not far from her. She was happy because she heard that Xu Yuxing would be her father in the future, so she ran to Xu Yuxing's side and stretched out her arms to hug her. Xu Yuxing bent down and hugged her. Hug up.

Xu Huiru sat in the car behind with a few maidservants, and after getting off together, the eldest aunt also helped the old aunt to get down.Seeing Xu Yuxing holding the orb, Xu Huiru remembered that he would leave the court in a few years, and if his father could have a son and a half with his eldest aunt in the future, he would have someone to rely on.Thinking about it this way, I remembered how the person I originally wanted to marry looked like, and I couldn't help but feel sad again.

The great aunt also heard about Xu Huiru from Xu's side. Seeing her standing there alone, she went to meet her and asked Baozhen to hold her hand. The whole group went inside together.

The servants in the garden knew that the master's family was coming, so they all waited at the door.The leaders Xie Yujiao knew each other, and they all went up to meet the crowd.They introduced all of them, but when it came to Zhou Tianhao, everyone sized him up and didn't know how to speak.

Xie Yujiao just lowered her head and didn't speak. She cleared her throat with some guilt for some reason, and Mrs. Xu smiled awkwardly, but Xu Yuxing said, "This is Mr. Zhou, come to our house for a few days."

Zhou Tianhao smiled lightly on his face, greeted all the servants, and said sullenly in his heart: I am not staying for a short time, I will not leave this time.Thinking of this, Zhou Tianhao couldn't help but glance at Xie Yujiao. All the servants are people who are used to observing words and expressions, so they immediately understood, and just responded, "Hello, Mr. Zhou."

When everyone entered the garden, tea and fruits had already been set up in the main hall, and Mama Zhang came over again and said, "Lunch is ready in the kitchen, just waiting for my wife to speak!"

The group of people sat in the carriage for more than an hour, and their bodies were a little sore at this moment, Xu said: "First go back to your own residence and settle down, and then come over and have a light meal together."

After receiving the order, the maids and mother-in-law brought people to settle down.

Because it is a garden, it is not like the Xie family's ancestral house, which is a few large courtyards, but small courtyards.The original owner heard that he was a well-to-do literati from the previous dynasty. Because he couldn't understand the intrigues of the officialdom, he retired to the edge of Bailuzhou and built such a garden.There are four or five independent small courtyards inside, all of which have some interesting names, some are called "Qingfeng" and some are called "Mingyue".One of Xie Yujiao's favorite courtyards is called "Half-day leisure", so today she and Mrs. Xu chose to live in this "Half-day leisure".

The maidservant arranged all the bedding, and Mama Zhang came back to Xu Shi and said, "The furniture in the room has not been added. The second child originally said that he would add it. I thought I'd better wait for the wife to come. See if you like to put some things on, and then open the warehouse and add them everywhere."

Because no one lived here for a long time, I was afraid of losing things, so I put away those valuable antique calligraphy and paintings, and now the room looks a bit clean.

Although Xie Yujiao is not interested in these antiques, she also knows that no matter what the Xie family has, if it can be handed down to the present, it must be worth a thousand gold. : "It's not so troublesome to leave after staying for more than ten days."

But Xu thought to herself again, although the Xie family's old house is big, it is not in the city after all, Zhou Tianhao is a prince after all, if he really let him live there, he did not want to go there on purpose.Therefore, Mrs. Xu had made up her mind early on that when Xie Yujiao and Zhou Tianhao got married, they could live here. It was clean and in the city. It was such a decent garden, and they could also be worthy of Zhou Tianhao's status.

"If you live for more than ten days, how can you be bothered? The older you are, the less particular you are." Mrs. Xu only smiled, and then told Zhang's mother, "In a while, you invite my uncle to go to the storeroom, and let me see you." He also picks out a few things he likes and displays them first.”

Seeing what Xu said, Xie Yujiao was speechless for a while, so she had no choice but to agree.

After a while, everyone packed up and went back to the main hall for lunch.The cook came out in advance last night, so the food was still the taste of the original family. After lunch, everyone was not in a hurry to leave, so Mrs. Xu kept everyone drinking tea in the living room.

It turned out that before she came here two days ago, the old aunt secretly found Mrs. Xu, and wanted to settle the matter between the aunt and Xu Yuxing.Although one of them is a widower, and the other has divorced again, and there is no such thing as Chen Zhu Neo-Confucianism in this dynasty, but in general, remarriage is still not a very glorious thing.So what the old aunt and grandma meant was to let them do it secretly in the city.

Mrs. Xu was looking forward to this day early in the morning. Hearing the old aunt and grandma mention it, she was naturally willing, so she told Xie Yujiao in private, and she just waited to bring it up today, and then took advantage of the time she lived in the city. A happy event, the aunt and grandma don't have to go back to the countryside, and live directly in Xu's house, which is better than those women in the countryside talking about it.

"Let everyone sit down today. I still have something to say. This family has been vegetarian for more than two years. By the ninth day of February this year, it will be the third year that the master has been there. After the Qingming Festival, it will be officially removed. Convinced, although a lot of things have happened in the family in the past two years, but most of them are good things, the Xie family has also recovered, and now they should do the things that should be done."

As soon as Mrs. Xu finished speaking, the aunt over there couldn't help lowering her head, her face turned red.

After hearing this, Xie Yujiao nodded and said, "Mother should have done this long ago. If my aunt and uncle's good deeds were delayed because of my father's affairs, I'm afraid that my father would also feel uneasy."

Xu Huiru has been in a languid mood for the past few days, but now that she heard about this, she rarely laughed. She just stood beside Xu Yuxing, pulled his sleeve and said, "Daddy, Daddy, just agree."

Xu Yuxing is 35 and a sixth grader. He has never been so shy when discussing business with people in the mall. At this moment, he didn’t know what to say, so he just glanced at his aunt and grandma, and saw that her head was even lowered. , it seems that I can only nod myself first, and then said with a smile: "Then let my sister arrange everything."

Seeing that the matter had been settled, everyone heaved a sigh of relief and went back to the courtyard.Zhou Tianhao followed Xie Yujiao to the back garden for a stroll, saw Xie Yujiao walking fast ahead, so he ran up, took her hand and asked, "After talking for a long time, it turned out to be someone else's good deed, so what about the two of us?"

Seeing his anxious face, Xie Yujiao couldn't help laughing, she shook off his hand, and said coquettishly, "What's the hurry, my father treated me very well since I was a child, and I want to keep his filial piety for ten years, you just wait Let's go!"
