Jiang Nuanzhi was stunned for a moment and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Just kidding, let's not talk about this. Is the Zheng family ahead? Come on, go and have a look."
Li Rong was stunned for a moment, but he also breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, but... There was a feeling of being lost in a trance. He thought it would take a long time to explain, but he found that she didn't seem angry at all
At that moment, he couldn't help but look at Jiang Nuanzhi.
At that time, Jiang Nuanzhi had already led Ping'er into Zheng's house.
It is said to be a house, but in fact the walls of the courtyard are gone, and some parts of the walls of the house have collapsed. After walking around, I found that the courtyard is really good.
There is a small pond in the yard, and some big trees are planted beside the pond. The yard is on the edge of the village, very close to the river in front. The front and rear areas are very spacious, and there are no other houses on the left or right. It is a single-family house, and it is very quiet.
Precisely because it is a single family, the yard is more than twice the size of their home, and there is a lot of usable land for the front and rear gardens. Jiang Nuanzhi is very satisfied with this place.
Before, when I was cooking something to eat at home, there were always people watching.
Her house does not have a courtyard wall, it is simply surrounded by a fence. The villagers pass by the door of the house when fetching water. There is always a feeling that everything they do is being spied on, which is really not true. Great comfort.
If you build your house here, you won't have this problem at all. After all, you have to go to the well in the middle of the village to get water. There is also this pond, which is also the shortest place in the south of the Yangtze River. Then you can raise fish in your own yard!
After a good rest, she can definitely create a paradise.
Although it is closer to Xie Liangchen’s home, you may feel a little uncomfortable. But as long as the courtyard wall is built high, it will be out of sight and clean.
Thinking like this, he looked at the two of them with a smile: "What do you think of building a new house here?"
Ping'er couldn't help but nod, and he could hardly hold his mouth shut. Lived: "This place is so big. From now on we can grow a lot of fruits by ourselves and never have to worry about going hungry again."
After thinking about it, he said worriedly: "It's just that this place is remote. If you encounter a wild beast or a bad person, it's hard to ask for help. It's too far from the well. I'm afraid it will be even more tiring to fetch water in the future."
< br>Jiang Nuanzhi smiled and touched his head: "With a master like your father at home, are we still afraid of bad guys?"
As soon as these words came out, both father and son were stunned.
Ping'er came back to his senses and nodded seriously: "Yes, I forgot that dad's leg is already healed!"
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled again and said: "The well is also simple. Invite workers to come when the time comes. Let’s dig a well of our own. We won’t have to fetch water anymore. It’s still close to the river. When the time comes, we can just go to the river to wash our clothes.”
Ping'er's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, and his little face turned red with excitement: "That's great! There are fertile aquatic plants here as soon as you go out. Xiaoli and Daniu don't have to go to the grass by then. After harvesting, we just need to take them out to eat.”
Li Rong nodded: “We can build a stable to prevent them from suffering from the sun and rain. Our yard was too small before. There is really no room. The courtyard wall can be built higher and barbs can be made on the wall. Even if I go hunting in the future, ordinary people will not dare to disturb me."
He has long thought about this. After all, there are many elderly people and children in the family, and the population in the village is complex, so there are no people with evil intentions in life.
Today, he heard An Nuan say that she was actually bullied to death. For a moment, there was a faint anger in my heart.
I just looked at the mother and son looking very happy, and didn’t mention it again, so as not to upset them. I was thinking secretly that I would ask Lu Shi and Zhu Xiao tomorrow if they knew about this. Ask around to find out who he is. It would have been better if it had been dealt with earlier.
"Li Rong, do you also think this location is good?"
Seeing Jiang Nuanzhi look over, Li Rong nodded: "Yes, it is indeed good. In fact, when I first came to Qingquan Village, I I fell in love with this courtyard. At that time, the courtyard was not so dilapidated, and there were two rooms that could barely be lived in.
But I didn’t have enough money. I asked Uncle Li, and an ordinary courtyard only cost three to five taels of silver. , the most good place in the farmhouse is not more than 10 taels. But the Zheng family's yard costs 20 taels of silver.
It's because there is a pond here and there are more fields around it. My daughter had no shortage of money, so she said she wouldn’t bargain, just buy it if she wanted to. Later, I spent less than three taels of silver to buy the yard I have now.”
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Nuanzhi with a little worry: "We don't have enough money, right? But don't worry, now that my legs are healed, I might not be able to go out during the day, so as not to attract other people. But I can go into the mountains at night. Although the price of animal skins in summer is not as high as in winter, it is not difficult to earn a house."
" No need," Jiang Nuanzhi said with a smile. : "We have money now, so you don't have to worry about it for the time being."
"You don't have to be like this. Now that I'm well, I will naturally be responsible for supporting the family. You have worked hard these days, and you deserve a good life. Take some rest. From now on, you can just do what you like. Li Rong knew that the medicine Jiang Nuanzhi made could be exchanged for money. It doesn’t sell every day. Furthermore, Li Rong saw her staying up late at night to make medicine several times, and she was so tired that she beat her waist and rubbed her shoulders. Sometimes I can’t even drink enough water. This time. I've even lost a lot of weight, it's really hard work.
At that moment, he looked at Jiang Nuanzhi with a guilty look on his face: "Ah Nuan, I didn't mean not to tell you about your recovery. It's just that there are often strangers coming to my home recently, and they are not good-natured. I'm worried. It's someone sent by the Zhao family, so I don't show my face. Please forgive me, I promise, I will never do this again."
The breeze came and blew Li Rong's hair away from his temples. Jiang Nuanzhi looked at his serious face and nodded in a daze. The corner of her mouth couldn't help but curl up: "I know."
After being here for so long, she was used to the busy days and didn't feel hard at all. And there is an unprecedented sense of accomplishment. However, Jiang Nuanzhi felt a little better now that what he had done was seen and remembered. For a moment, everyone looked at Li Rong with pleasure.
At that moment, she smiled and took out the silver in her arms: "Here, your calligraphy and painting sold for a hundred taels, it should be more than enough to build a house."
Jiang Nuanzhi pondered. Look, of the one hundred and fifty taels sold for this calligraphy and painting, I earned fifty taels by bargaining. If I didn't bargain, it would have been one hundred taels.
Well, that’s it.
Li Rong was stunned: "Really sold for one hundred taels?"
Jiang Nuanzhi nodded: "Well, I'll give you these one hundred taels."
After that, he gave it to he.
Li Rong looked at the banknote in his hand, took Jiang Nuanzhi's hand with a smile, and put the banknote back into her hand.
"No need. You bought me the clothes, shoes, and obscene underwear that I am wearing now. There are no other expenses. And your taste is much better than mine. You bought it for me." The clothes are much more comfortable than what I bought before. I have food and drink at home, and I won’t go out unless necessary. It’s better for you to have more money.”
After thinking for a while, he added: "It's time for you to buy two pieces of jewelry. It's just that the money is small, so maybe you can't buy good ones. If you wait a few more days, I'll find a way to buy them for you." (End of Chapter)
