Chapter 165 A few big slaps
Xin Yi spent an entire night and finally made up his mind.
——Change houses.
Sun Huai's words that day are still in my ears.
She already owes Fu Jiuqu a lot of favors. If she goes to Sun Huai to buy a house again, it will make her even more scheming and thick-skinned.
Although she likes this place very much, if she wants to have strong wings, she shouldn't just ask for help.
It's not an easy decision to make.
Xin Yi was afraid that he would hesitate, so he got up early in the morning and went to find Yaren.
Ya people are active in various industries in Bianjing, with a wide variety of industries, almost covering the basic necessities of life, food, housing, and transportation.
The rice shop has rice teeth, the horse shop has horse teeth, the tea shop has tea teeth, and Xinyi is looking for Tianzhaiya people, a kind of person who specializes in the sale and purchase of fields and houses.
All businesses in Bianjing are prosperous, and Tianzhai shops are busy changing hands. Uncle Zhang introduced this Tianzhai Ya man, who is a somewhat oblique relative of the Zhang family. He took Xinyi to several shops and houses in the morning, but when he saw that Xinyi was still not satisfied, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Pour out the bitter water.
"My arms and legs are almost broken by my wife. I will show you a few more rooms in the afternoon. If she is still not satisfied, there is nothing I can do. Alas, the ones I showed you this morning are the best ones I have.
A shop..."
"Thank you, ma'am." Xin Yi thanked her hurriedly.
The tooth man waved his hand.
"Most of Bianjing's pharmaceutical industry is concentrated in the Maxing Street area. If my wife is far away, it may be detrimental to the business..."
Having said this, Yaren turned to look at Xin Yi.
"Madam, that drug store is a rare and good location. If Madam cancels the rent, it can be rented out again in less than three days. What do you dislike about Madam? Why do you need to look at the house separately?"
Xin Yi pursed his lips slightly and smiled.
"It's not that I dislike it, it's that I can't reach it."
Yaren obviously didn't understand Xin Yi's thoughts and shook his head.
In the afternoon, the two of them walked around Bianjing City many times, but still couldn't find anything suitable. Until nightfall, Xin Yi's back and legs ached from walking, so he gave Yaren 50 cents for tea, saying that he would go back and discuss it with his family.
Then he said goodbye and went back.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sun Huai's fat and round face.
Sighing loudly and looking anxious, he walked back and forth in the medicine hall. When he saw Xin Yi, he came up and bowed his hands.
"Ms. Zhang, the Za family is here to cause trouble again."
Xin Yi was a little tired, so he returned the gift and sat down on the chair by the door.
"Eunuch Sun, why are you looking for me?"
Sun Huai frowned and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "I wonder if your wife still remembers what the Za family told Madam last time?"
Xin Yi raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"
Sun Huai sighed, "It's the bad fate I caused when I was young and frivolous. Alas, my boy also failed to live up to expectations. He didn't study well. He made enemies in the academy. The other party found a few people to beat him. In a fit of anger,
He actually set the academy on fire, and the academy demanded compensation, making his mother so angry that she couldn't bear to fall ill. This is really a crime..."
Xin Yi frowned when he heard this. He was about to say that he could go and help his child's mother see a doctor when he heard Sun Huai let out a long sigh and then changed the subject.
"Madam, I'm short of money, and I'm afraid that if Master Jiu finds out, I'll be broken, so I want to secretly sell a shop..."
Xin Yi's heart skipped a beat, "You mean Eunuch Sun?"
"You must already know this, right? This pharmacy was actually bought by the Za family with many years of savings. However, the Za family was an eunuch and couldn't do business, so they rented it to Sun Yuzhi to open a pharmacy..."
have to!
Before she could say anything, Sun Huai explained everything.
Xin Yi pursed his lips and smiled softly: "That's really a coincidence. Eunuch Sun is in trouble and is in a hurry for money, and I happen to want to buy this shop... Eunuch Sun, I think it won't be a high price to sell it in your shop, right? If I offer half the price, Eunuch Sun will agree?"
This was said in a weird way, and it sounded a bit clumsy.
Sun Huai was not stupid like Duan Sui. He knew immediately that Xin Yi had misunderstood something and laughed awkwardly.
"Madam, don't make fun of the Zajia family. How can I sell it cheaply?"
He took out a purchase certificate and house deed from his arms and handed it to Xin Yi, "I don't dare to ask for more, and I won't ask for less. If it's convenient for me, the Za family will ask for a cost price, and I can get it now, you see." Can you help me?"
Xin Yi took the contract and read it.
The date of signing is the second year of Jingyou.
It has been several years, and it is clear that this shop has nothing to do with Fu Jiuqu.
Although Sun Huai was from Fu Jiuqu, he was embarrassed to rely on him for everything, especially things that required spending money to eliminate disasters. He might have done it behind Fu Jiuqu's back...
Xin Yi dismissed her worries, "The little girl just said something offensive, and I hope my father-in-law will forgive me. To be honest, I am also encountering difficulties right now, which happen to coincide with my father-in-law's difficulties. Okay, I want this house, but what's the price... Eunuch Sun, housing prices in Bianjing should have increased in recent years, so I still have to give the profits to my father-in-law."
Sun Huai seemed to let out a long sigh of relief, "That's... that's fine, that's fine. Madam, you're welcome!"
Xin Yi smiled: "Father, wait a moment."
She went into the house holding on to her sore waist, quickly took the banknote and stuffed it into Sun Huai's hand.
"Eunuch-in-law Sun will take the money and turn it around first, and treat it as my deposit. As for the house deed, it depends on my father-in-law when it is convenient. How about we find a dentist to do it and then sign the house deed?"
"Very good, very good. Madam is a kind person."
Sun Huai took the money and left in a hurry, looking very anxious.
Xin Yi was really tired and asked her husband to follow her quietly.
An hour later, her husband came back and told her that Sun Huai did not go to the Imperial City Division, nor did he return to the eldest princess's mansion. Instead, he rented a car and went straight out of Jujube Gate...
Xin Yi was completely relieved and asked her husband to wash and eat. She took out the drawings and walked in and out of the house. She asked Sannian to hold the rope to help her measure the length and space, and kept writing and drawing...
"Meow!"
A cat meowed, causing Xin Yi to turn around suddenly.
Is it the voice of a fox demon?
She rolled up the string and handed it to San Nian: "You go to Mr. Zhou's place to study."
Third thought: "Mom, don't you want to measure it anymore?"
"The measurement is ready." Xin Yi took the child away and tiptoed over to find the place where the cat was meowing.
Xin Yi placed dried meat in the bamboo cage and waited for the cat to fall into the trap. After waiting for these days, he almost gave up, but to his surprise, the cat came back on its own.
"Bang!"
Xin Yi pulled the rope, and the lid of the bamboo cage fell down, trapping the lion cat inside.
Xin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, clapped his hands, crossed his arms and cursed.
"Little thing, I've caught you. Where have you been hiding these days? What did you eat?"
She strode over and knelt down to look at the frightened kitten.
His coat was gray, his body was dirty, and he looked at her helplessly with his eyes.
"Look at you like this, you don't know how to lick your fur?" Xin Yi stretched out her fingers to stroke it, and the cat meowed and breathed fiercely at her.
Xin Yi retracted his hand and sniffed suddenly.
This cat has a very strange scent...
~~
The news of the marriage between the Cao family and the Lu family was published in the Bianjing tabloid.
Two marriages in one family, both from noble families, will inevitably lead to discussions in the streets.
However, the good news did not dilute the gloom in the Great Cao Mansion.
In order to cut off the mess quickly and cut off Cao Yi's longing for Mrs. Zhang, and perhaps because Cao Yi is Cao Yilan's elder, the Cao Mansion is planning to arrange Cao Yi's marriage before Cao Yilan gets married.
. Therefore, time was running out, and through Empress Cao, she tried to find out what Mrs. Lu's family had to say, and after getting the confidence, she immediately asked Fourth Master Cao to draft a "proposal" for his nephew, and asked the matchmaker to bring it over.
Proposal letter is a kind of proposal document, which is regarded as a gift for the scholar-bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty. It is very cautious.
Cao Yi didn't object a word from the beginning to the end, and he cooperated with everything he did, but his face didn't have the happiness that a groom who wants to marry a wife should have. On the day when the proposal was sent out, he, who had never been a drunkard, got drunk and fell asleep.
In the withered lotus pavilion in the backyard, I caught a cold and had a fever. I talked nonsense all night, and my fever still didn't go away at dawn.
What worries Mrs. Cao Feng even more is her granddaughter Cao Yilan.
I don’t know what kind of madness broke out in this girl who refused to calm down. She used to cry and shout that she wanted to marry Fu Jiuqu, but now that something good was about to happen, she cried and shouted that she wanted to break off the engagement again. Mrs. Feng was so angry that she took action and slapped her
He slapped her several times, scolded her mother, locked her up in Yilan Pavilion, and asked her mother to take good care of her.
Unexpectedly, Cao Yilan made a fuss for three days. Unable to figure it out, she broke the bowl and cut her wrist veins with a piece of porcelain, saying that she wanted to die to plead guilty to the ancestors of the Cao family and to clear the Cao family's innocence.
Things like this that happen in a deep house and compound cannot be spread outside.
Even if someone saw medical officers coming and going from Cao's mansion, they could only guess which nobleman was in poor health. Who would have thought that Master Cao could not afford to fall ill and Miss Cao cut her pulse to seek death?
