farmer's husband

Chapter 101 Watchdog Cat

"If you rent a house, the rent is actually not cheap. A slightly better location and a better house cost three to five taels a month. But if you have a woman, you can buy vegetables and cook by yourself, so that's easy." It cost a fortune." The man hurriedly said again.

This is exactly what she wants!Chunzhi nodded repeatedly. "That is to say, the house you found for us is not occupied by anyone else?"

"Look at what you little lady said, if there are only you and the young couple living in that house, it will cost more than three or five taels a month, and you will have to pay ten taels of silver!" The man smiled and shook his head, "But you can rest assured, the other The renters are all here to take the exam this time. They are all gentlemen, so it’s not bad for three or four people to live together.”

Three or four people, that's actually a lot.

Chun Zhi frowned, she was busy looking at Chai Dong. "what do you think?"

"It's better to rent a house! It's more free and cheaper." Chai Dong said.

"Okay, let's rent a house then." Chun Zhi also nodded.

"Okay, I just know that there are several houses that are rented out now, and I have the house keys, so I'll show you right away!" The clerk nodded quickly, and told the other people in the store what he was doing, and then Take Chun Zhi and Chai Dong out.

The provincial capital is large and has a large population, and the industrial chain for students has already been relatively complete.For example, now, while the foot shop assistants are working in the foot shop, they are also helping other people's houses attract tenants.The owner of the house even threw them the keys directly, and Chun Zhi found that he had six or seven keys hanging around his waist, which meant six or seven houses!
These few houses are all near the foot shop, with different sizes and layouts, but the houses are all tidy and tidy, with all kinds of furniture and bedding.Chai Dong and Chun Zhi followed him for a long time, looked at several houses carefully, and finally Chun Zhi chose a small courtyard with two entrances.

The courtyard is very small, and there are only three main rooms in total.But the kitchen is big enough, and there is a small yard in front of it. There is a grape trellis in the yard, and now a few tender green leaves have just grown on the vines, which make people's eyes shine in the dark bricks and tiles.

Chun Zhi took a fancy to this grape trellis at a glance, and then couldn't get enough of it.She couldn't help but discuss with Chai Dong: "When we go back, let's plant a vine in the yard too!"

"Okay." Chai Dong nodded.

So, the house was settled.

The rent is five taels of silver a month, and they can use the kitchen and yard as they please.

After the signed painting was postponed, half a month's rent was paid as a deposit, and there was another half month's rent to be paid when they left.

After paying the money, Chunzhi was in pain again.

"It's two and a half now. Last year's money was enough for us to live in the county for a month! The prices in this provincial capital are really too high!"

"Actually, it's not usually so high. It's just that now when the students come to take the exam, they also take the opportunity to make a fortune. Normally, the rent should be [-]% of our price." Chai Dong said slowly.

"That means they raised [-]% in one go? Then they can make too much money!" Chun Zhi whispered.

"No way, no matter how expensive it is, you have to rent it! Otherwise, the inn outside is even more expensive, and there are many people and noisy." Chai Dong said.

"That's true." Chun Zhi pouted.

But the pain is the pain, now that the house is settled, she doesn't say any more, and quickly takes out everything in the bag and puts it away.He also specially built a cat bed for the third son beside the bed.

When Chai Dong saw it, he said softly, "Why bother?"

"Huh?" Chun Zhi turned around in confusion.

Chai Dong twitched the corner of his mouth. "This cat has never slept in a cat's nest, he only sleeps with you."

Haruhi couldn't help but smile awkwardly. "Didn't I prepare it first? The bed in this room is not wide enough now."

Of course, houses in provincial capitals are expensive for a reason.Let's just talk about the house they are renting now. This is a serious main house. The room is spacious and bright, with beds, tables, chairs, tea bowls, etc. all in place.Even the quilts were cleaned and resewn.It's just that this house seems to be prepared for single students. There is only a narrow single bed in the room. Fortunately, she and Chai Dong are not fat, and there is barely enough room for the two of them to lie on.But if you want to add the third son, it will be a bit crowded.

Chai Dong just let out a chuckle. "Even so, it won't sleep in the cat's litter."

Look, this is what he has been proclaiming that he won't care too much about the third son?Chun Zhi was speechless.Obviously he has been remembering revenge all the time!This guy is actually the same as Xiao Sanzi, he has a narrow mind!

"Okay, I got it, I will definitely persuade it this time!" She quickly patted her chest to promise.

With such a small bed, she was also worried that the third son would be squeezed down by them!If this is the case, it is better to let it sleep in the cat bed!

Chai Dong pursed his lips again and remained silent.

At this time, there was another soft sound outside, and someone came in.

The two quickly looked over there, and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar walking in.

The foot shop clerk had told them that the east-facing room in the yard had been rented out by a student surnamed Wei.It seems that this person is it.

Chun Zhi hurriedly pushed Chai Dong, and Chai Dong walked over slowly.

When the student raised his eyes and saw Chai Dong appearing in front of him, he was also startled before he realized it.

"You moved in today?" He hurriedly greeted Chai Dong.

Chai Dong nodded. "I live in the south wing."

"Really, I live in the east!" The student is a talkative person, and immediately reported his family name, "My surname is Wei, my name is Qize, and I am from Shuangfeng County."

"Chai Dong, from Yuqing County." Chai Dong also introduced himself.

"Yuqing County?" Wei Qize immediately opened his eyes wide, "But it is Yuqing County where there was a street fight last year?"

"That's right." Chai Dong nodded.

Wei Qize's eyes suddenly started to sparkle.

"Since you are from there, you must know some inside information, right? Tell me what happened! I was so curious when I heard about it, but it's a pity that Shuangfeng County and Yuqing County are far apart. It's too far away, I don't know who to turn to if I want to inquire, and I only get some scattered news after tossing around for a long time, which is really boring."

This can be regarded as finding the right person!In this matter, no one knows the inside story better than Chai Dong!
However, Chai Dong obviously didn't want to mention this matter, so he shook his head: "Although that matter happened in our county, I don't know much about it."

"No matter how little you know, you must know more than I do! Just tell me everything you know!" Wei Qize didn't understand his polite refusal, and instead pulled him along, "Go, let's go I'm in the room. I can't afford to drink, let's talk while drinking!"

Seeing that Chai Dong was about to be dragged away by him, Chun Zhi hurried out. "Sir, who are you talking to?"

Wei Qize turned his head when he heard the voice, and his eyes fell on Chunzhi.

"Who is this……"

"My daughter-in-law." Chai Dong took the opportunity to shake off him, and strode to Chun Zhi's side.

"Oh, so it's younger siblings! Disrespect and disrespect." Wei Qize quickly rolled up his sleeves and saluted Chun Zhi, then winked at Chai Dong again, "Brother Chai, you're not bad! You brought your daughter-in-law with you when you come to the exam. I will enjoy it! Why didn’t I think of this one? Next time I come to the exam, I will definitely bring my daughter-in-law!”

As soon as Chun Zhi heard this, he felt that something was wrong.

Of course Chai Dong heard it too. "How many times have you thought about it?"

"It's not much, just four times... no, it seems like five times?" Wei Qize thought for a while, "Oh, there are too many times, and I can't remember clearly, anyway, it's so many times!"

As he spoke, he patted Chai Dong on the shoulder. "I'm an experienced person, so I'll tell you the truth. You're still young, don't panic when you take the exam, just write slowly. I can't finish writing this year, so I'll come back after three years after learning my lesson. Every time I learn from my failures that year. , and slowly wait for the experience to accumulate enough, then it's time!"

Why did she get weirder the more she heard this?Chun Zhi scratched her head, she quickly looked at Chai Dong again.

Chai Dong's eyes gradually turned cold. "I don't need it." He said coldly, pushing Wei Qize's hand away.

Wei Qize was not happy yet. "You young man, why don't you listen to the old man's words? I am passing on my years of experience to you! I have never told anyone else about this experience, so I will tell you!"

"Then just tell others to go, I don't need it." Chai Dong left these words, and pulled Chun Zhi up, "Let's go!" The two strode away.

Little Sanzi quickly stretched his neck and meowed at this person several times, raised a furry paw and waved it several times in mid-air, before turning around, he squatted down at the door of Chun Zhi's room.

Wei Qize quickly rubbed his eyes.

"This cat... Is it guarding the door for them? There is such a thing as a guard cat in this world?"
