Qing Dynasty Crossover

Chapter 10 Waiting for Appreciation

When it was getting late, Ling Zhu came back from outside happily.He obviously found that there were many fewer people in his family, and he knew that his wife had already started to tidy up the inner house.Although there are fewer people, my family will be more comfortable in ancient times, but as a man, who doesn't want his wife and daughter to live a better life? Because of the money he earns and the reduction of manpower, this makes Ling Zhu feel as a man. It's ugly, and at the same time, Ling Zhu also knows that the pressure on his shoulders is much heavier than in modern times.I should also speed up the pace of making money, and I must let them live a better life.Thinking about the news he just heard and the 300 taels of silver in his pocket, Ling Zhu's heart couldn't help but soar.

When they came to the main room of the inner house, Ling Zhu said loudly, "Madam, Luo Luo, I'm back!"

Looking at the smiling Ling Zhu, Qi Luo asked first, "Ama, it's a good thing, why are you so happy?"

"Don't worry, I'll let you, Ama, sit down and take a breath, drink some water." Mrs. Dong handed the tea on the table to Ling Zhu
Ling Zhu took a sip of tea and said, "I think white water is better, I don't like drinking tea. But let's not talk about that, Madam, let me tell you, the emperor hasn't started building the hot spring village yet, I'll ask someone to inquire about it." After a while, the wasteland over there is frighteningly cheap, and real estate is a violent industry. Back then, our housing prices were changing every day like seafood. Now that we have the opportunity, we will treat them as unscrupulous real estate developers."

Dong also asked with concern, "Really? Will it be so cheap?"

"Of course, I can still lie to you. I have asked people to find out, and I have also negotiated the price. I bought a whole 200 dumps of wasteland for 150 taels, and I brought back the title deed. Look!" Ling Zhu finished speaking. He took out the title deed from his pocket and handed it to Mrs. Dong.

"Great, according to what Luo Luo said, we will make a lot of money. I have to keep it well and don't lose it!" Mrs. Dong looked at the land deed, and then looked in the house, not knowing where to put it it is good.There is no real estate bureau here, and if you lose the title deed, you have nothing, and there is no chance to reissue it, so you have to put it away.

Qi Luo grabbed her mother and said, "Emiang, don't worry, the land deed cannot be lost. Just find an iron box like before and just keep it!"

Dong suddenly realized and said, "Yes, Qi Luo is right. We used to put important things like this." After thinking about it, Dong said, "But now there are not only three people in our family, but also some servants. If they What should I do if I take it?"

"Er Niang, it's okay, they can't take it away. You just need to take care of it. I think Zhao mama is trustworthy and she will help you. I promise you won't lose it!"

"That's true. Mother Zhao is Dong's dowry after all, and has always been loyal to Dong. Otherwise, Ling Zhu's family doesn't know what it's like?" Qi Luo took the land deed and looked at it carefully and said, " Ama, all the ones you bought have springs, right? And most importantly, are they very close to the emperor’s palace?"

Ling Zhu flicked Qi Luo's forehead, "Of course, you think you are stupid, I would buy some more if I didn't have enough money?"

"Don't worry, this is already enough, any more will be too conspicuous, as I said, Ling Zhu's official does not have any other strong background, too conspicuous and easy to cause accidents," Qi Luo advised

"Are these all right? Otherwise, let's sell some more! Don't make money and something happens! The safety of our family is the most important thing!" Dong said worriedly

"It's okay, my mother, when the low price rises, we'll sell some first and make less money. Besides, the land we buy is far away from the palace, I think it's safer!"

Ling Zhu asked with concern, "Luo Luo, how much money do you think we can make by relying on these lands? According to what you said, we will not be able to become black-hearted real estate developers. I think I was angry with them when I bought a house. People who have spare money to buy hot springs must be dignitaries, and they wanted to earn a lot of money, but now it seems that they can't." Ling Zhu was a little discouraged

"I don't know exactly how much. This is just an idea I got from reading the novel. The book said that I earned 10,000+ taels of silver, but I really can't say how the reality is, but I think I can earn 5 taels. "Qi Luo said confidently.

Ling Zhu was surprised, "How much? 5 taels. Haha, it's better to be a profiteer, there is a lot of money to be made."

"Otherwise, why would there be so many people wanting to travel through time! Ama, what is Er Niang's name? This is called Goldfinger. History combined with modern knowledge is invincible. Of course, the novels of the starting point are also indispensable. Let you say that I read some useless idle books, hum, this is called being prepared!" Qi Luo said triumphantly

Ling Zhu hugged Dong Shi and looked at the proud Qi Luo. He knew that his daughter had never been as happy as she is now since she came to ancient times, and she was always worried that he and his wife would not be able to adapt to the life in ancient times.But seeing Qi Luo like that, he and his wife both felt distressed, and the confident and proud Qi Luo was what he wanted to see the most.Ling Zhu vowed secretly that he must let Qi Luo live a happy life, and he must compensate her for what was not given to Qi Luo in modern times.

"Okay, we know you are very powerful, can't we! Stop cocking your tail."

Qi Luo got into Dong's arms as if she was a child and said coquettishly, "How could Er Niang say that about me? I'm just happy that I don't have a tail. Of course I'm happy when I make a lot of money. Such a rate of return seems to be middle-class." It's like winning a lottery ticket, so let me be proud!"

Dong said helplessly, "Okay, let you be intoxicated!"

"By the way, husband, where did you get the 200 taels to buy the land? Is it a loan from the household department? How much did you borrow from there? Too much is not good?"

Ling Zhu took out 300 taels of silver note from his arms and said, "This is the loan from the Ministry of Household Affairs. The 200 taels for buying land is Ling Zhu's own small coffers. I am a good man who pays all my salary. How can I save the coffers?" So according to Ling Zhu's memory, I took out the money to buy the land. The money I borrowed from the household department with my official position is not too much, don't worry, it's fine. When Yongzheng investigates the debt owed by the household department, we will Just pay it back, I thought our family would be rich at that time.”

Dong took the bank note and said, "Then I don't worry, you are an official outside, you can't do without money, I have prepared some scattered silver for you, so that you can socialize, and it will be your pocket money. "

"Then thank you my wife, don't worry, I won't spend it indiscriminately"

Ling Zhu asked, "Have you tidied up your house today? Is there enough manpower?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. The family is not big now, so we don't need too many people. Luo Luo has established a system, so I think there should be no problem, but what about Ling Zhu's concubine?"

"What? What's wrong with her?"

Qi Luo hurriedly said, "Both Er Niang and I felt that she was not a very simple person, she was pitiful in front of us, as if we were bullying her, and also called Qi Huan tightly, as if Er Niang was going to snatch her away." ! Looks like a classic mistress!"

"Don't bother with her, just pretend she doesn't exist. Since she is not a simple person, I will pay attention to it in the future." Ling Zhu said lightly.

"I believe you, just Qi Huan. I think we should find a better teacher for him. I think that child is not bad. Since we can't give him the love of his parents, let's satisfy his material requirements! Qi Luo also I want to learn the skills of ancient ladies such as calligraphy and painting, otherwise, she will be too boring here, do you think we can go together?"

Ling Zhu said, "Don't worry about this matter. It is not easy to find a suitable teacher here. Qi Luo's teacher may be less demanding and easier to handle, but Qi Huan is not so easy. In Ling Zhu's memory, Qi Luo Huan has always been a silent child. He is not close to Ling Zhu or has any friends. He is not like a ten-year-old boy. If he asks a teacher to teach him at home, he has no peers and only stays with Liu, will he be right? He is not good?"

"Then what should I do? To be honest, I feel uncomfortable when I see him, as if you really betrayed me, husband!"

Qi Luo asked, "Ama, don't we have ethnology here? I remember that Dongfu Lingcheng also has two sons? Where did they go to school?"

"Yes, Luo Luo reminded me that we can send Qi Huan to the ethnology school, where Ling Cheng's son also goes to school. It will be good for Qi Huan to socialize with his peers more in the future."

Dong said worriedly, "I don't object, but it's very chaotic there. There are many children. What if Qi Huan fails to learn? What if he causes trouble? Then we can't just leave him alone!"

"I don't think so. Aunt Liu will take him very seriously. At his age, nothing serious will happen. When he gets older, if he lives up to his expectations, that's fine. If not, we'll give him another Arrange it well, let him have no worries about food and clothing. What do you think, Ama?"

"With our family's situation and my official position, no one will pay too much attention to him. The teachers in the ethnology school are also good. As long as they are not used as gunmen, it is still okay. Just treat him as an experience. Hey, if What Ling Zhu left behind is a daughter, so we can relax a lot.”

Qi Luo blinked and said, "No matter what, Qi Huan is a concubine, and there is a big difference between concubine and concubines here. As long as Erniang can give birth to a son, then Aunt Liu will be much more honest. So, Ama Erniang, you really work hard Already! Hehe!"

"Ah, it hurts so much, Er Niang hit my forehead again, if you knock me stupid, where can you find such a good daughter?"

After knocking, Mrs. Dong said, "Don't make fun of me and your mother, or I will get angry if you do this."

Ling Zhu smiled and said, "What's the matter, Qi Luo is not eight years old, don't forget her actual age, besides, what she said is not wrong, she is not for your own good, I remember that in modern times, she wants a Big brother, now that big brother is hopeless, it would be nice to give her a younger brother!"

Mrs. Dong glanced at Ling Zhu, "You are not serious, you just know how to make fun of Qi Luo, this is not something you can do whatever you want! Don't you want to have a son as the former Mrs. Dong?"

Ling Zhu said, "Since the gods let us come here, it will change. In modern times, shouldn't we have a son who ended up doing it? We were too busy and the conditions were not good at that time. It’s not our pity all along! It’s completely different now, our life seems to be completely over again, and I believe that the son we lost has also come back to us.”

Looking at the red-eyed mother, Qi Luo pretended to be jealous and said, "Then if you have a younger brother, will you treat me well? It won't be just brother Gu!"

Ling Zhu hugged Qi Luo and said, "No, Qi Luo is the most important thing in our hearts. You will always be my proudest daughter. Your younger brother will also like you very much, I promise!"

Dong pinched Qi Luo's face in Ling Zhu's arms and said, "No matter what happens in the future, you are our most precious daughter and we will love you forever."

Qi Luo said happily from the bottom of his heart, "I will love you both forever, and I will take good care of my younger brother, and I will love him well. I hope God will bless our wishes to come true!"
