Chapter 106 Moving in
The carriage rumbled and headed straight to the county town.
Shen Li's house in the county town was indeed not small.
The two sides of the courtyard were widened and renovated.
A small study with a rockery garden was added on the left, and a horse racing field and martial arts hall were added on the right.
"This house is usually empty and no one lives there. People come to clean it from time to time. You can live here for now. If you want to buy another house, I will ask someone to help you find out after the Chinese New Year.
Don't be polite. You can treat this house as your own home. You can live in it however you want. Anyway, it is empty anyway. You can add some popularity to it.
My boss is the apprentice of Mr. Zhou. Once a teacher is a father for life, the apprentice's is the master's, and he should be filial."
Uncle Zhong led everyone to the house warmly.
Zhou Huaishan was an old marquis in his previous life. He had seen all kinds of famous scenes. A county-level version of a two-entry courtyard was like a chicken coop to him. There was nothing new about it.
The third family was different.
Zhou Ping's mouth never closed from the moment he entered the house.
Wherever he went, his eyes lit up and his mouth was "Wow"
"This courtyard is inside the courtyard. You will get lost if you walk inside."
Uncle Zhong touched Zhou Ping's head lovingly, "Maybe you will get lost at the beginning, but you won't get lost after walking a few more times."
Passing through the corridor, everyone arrived at the backyard.
"In here, all the necessary utensils are complete. I will send a few servants over later."
Before Uncle Zhong finished speaking, Zhou Huailin immediately waved his hand to refuse.
"No, no, no, I feel very sorry to be able to live here, why do I need servants!"
Zhao followed and said, "Yes, we are not the eldest grandmother or the eldest master, why do we need servants!"
Uncle Zhong
You are not, but Miss Qing will be the wife of our master in the future!
This could not be said, Uncle Zhong just said, "This house is big, it's troublesome to clean it, let's hire one or two helpers."
Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "We don't have much to do in winter. The yard is big and we have a lot of time. It's really no trouble for someone to come and clean it."
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Uncle Zhong, it's really not necessary. We would be uncomfortable if we have servants. We'll talk to you when we need them."
Everyone refused, so Uncle Zhong didn't insist.
"Then you can rest first. I'll have someone send a table of food over later. You don't have to cook for yourself today. I'll have someone send everything over there tomorrow."
After a few words of gossip, Uncle Zhong left.
As soon as Uncle Zhong left, Zhou Ping immediately jumped up like a beast out of the cage, and ran away with a "whoosh".
Zhou Yao's eyes were full of sparkles.
The young ladies in the storybooks probably live in such a yard.
Swinging on a swing in a red skirt in spring, catching butterflies with a round fan in summer, burying red flowers with fallen leaves in autumn, and writing poems with wine under the white snow in winter.
During festivals, the house is full of red lanterns, and sitting in the yard looking up at the fireworks in the sky.
Oh my!
Who would have thought that one day, Zhou Yao would actually spend the New Year in such a place!
She also became a girl in a storybook for once!
It's really a great honor for the second uncle!
"Mom, can we hang lanterns all over the yard during the New Year?" Zhou Yao looked at Zhao with expectation.
"Of course."
Zhao looked around the yard, and she had already started to think about where to hang the lanterns.
Make a few more pots of silk flowers and put them in the yard in a cluster!
Tsk tsk
Enjoy it!
Zhou Huailin looked embarrassed and touched. He stood beside Zhou Huaishan, scratched the back of his head, and choked up and said, "Second brother, we are all blessed by you."
Zhou Huaishan waved his hand, "Look at you speaking the truth."
Zhou Huailin.
Ah?
Zhou Qing immediately pulled Zhou Huaishan and laughed at Zhou Huailin, "Third uncle, don't pay attention to my father. He is so happy that he is stupid."
Zhou Huailin scratched the back of his head, "Third uncle is also happy. Third uncle is enjoying the happiness with your father."
There was some crystal in his eyes and his nose was a little sour.
What was he doing at this time last year?
It seemed that he was picking up cow dung outside, chiseling ice in the glacier to catch fish, and then
Look at now.
Without the second brother, how could he enjoy these.
After a moment of gossip and sentimentality, everyone started to tidy up their own residences.
In order to make it convenient for Zhou Huaishan to study, Zhou Qing arranged him to the main room in the backyard, so that nothing happening outside would affect him.
She and Zhou Yao occupied a wing room on the left and right.
Anyway, Uncle Zhong said that they could live anywhere they wanted. They and Shen Li were not polite to each other. With so many houses, they would of course occupy one each.
In the outer courtyard, Zhou Huailin and Zhao lived in the main house, while Zhou Ping occupied the right wing, which was closest to the racecourse and the martial arts hall.
After everyone had packed up, Uncle Zhong sent someone to deliver a table of food, a box of cosmetics, and two guards. He himself could not come because of something at the Pen and Ink Studio.
They were called guards, but in fact they were the two shadows that Shen Li left behind to protect Zhou Qing when he left.
One was called Li Yi and the other was called Li Er, and they were brothers.
The house was too big. Although it was okay to clean up without the help of servants, it was not safe to live in such a big house.
When the guards arrived, Zhou Huaishan simply asked about the two people's situation and accepted them.
There was an empty house at the martial arts hall, so it was just right for the two of them to live there.
Seeing the two brothers, Zhou Ping's eyes flickered with a little fire.
Know martial arts!
Wow
My mouth is watering.
Li Er
Brother, why do I feel like Zhou Ping is looking at me with such eager eyes?
Li Yi
You think too much. He doesn't covet your body, he only covets your martial arts.
Li Er
After a day of hard work, everyone went to bed after dinner.
Zhou Ping excitedly took out his schedule from the small box and pasted it on the head of the bed devoutly.
"From tomorrow on, I will work hard and strive to buy a big house like this for my second uncle and my parents to live in!"
After swearing, Zhou Ping was so excited that he couldn't sleep. He turned on the light and read the military books.
Zhou Qing soaked in the big wooden barrel, closing his eyes with a look of enjoyment.
Shen Li is really a strange person.
When he was in Qingyang Village, he lived in a yard by himself, and the houses in the yard were all neatly furnished.
In the county town.
This house is obviously empty, but every place is clean and all utensils are complete.
Even the charcoal and firewood are neatly prepared.
Are all rich people like this?
It's different when you have a mine at home.
The fire basin in the city is better than the earthen kang in the countryside. It is clean, and the burning charcoal does not choke or smoke.
As expected, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
It has only been one night, and she doesn't want to go back to Qingyang Village.
"You little bitch who is greedy for enjoyment!" Zhou Qing scolded herself and imitated the beauty out of the bath.
Anyway, she was the only one in the room, and it was good enough that she didn't wear a sheet to imitate Yang Guifei.
Just after getting out of the bathtub and not drying her hair, Zhou Yao knocked on the door outside, "Big sister, are you asleep?"
Thank you for the tip from the cute little Jiang Li! Thank you for the tip from dear little Fang Xiansen!
