Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space
Chapter 423 The south gate of the city
Lu Jianchuan watched Gu Yunxi finish his meal and then asked softly: "Daughter-in-law, what kind of village are you going to see in the suburbs of Beijing?"
He had never thought that Gu Yunxi wanted to buy Zhuangzi, and he had never heard Gu Yunxi mention it before.
Gu Yunxi apologized a little and explained in detail: "Ah Chuan, I originally came to see the mansion today, not to see Zhuangzi."
"I went to see the house in the east of the city. The asking price was hundreds of thousands of taels. It was really too expensive. We can't afford it now, so I came back."
"After I came back, I heard from Xiaocui that someone was selling Zhuangzi from the suburbs of Beijing. I thought about it. My family has a grain shop, but now the purchase channels are limited. If I have a Zhuangzi, I can grow the grain myself and put the harvest in the shop. It’s better to sell here.”
Gu Yunxi paused and observed Lu Jianchuan's expression. Seeing that he was no longer angry with him at all, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
She continued: "Ah Chuan, I went to see the Zhuangzi. There is a house in the courtyard. The Zhuangzi also comes with more than 200 acres of fields and slopes, which is really good."
"Besides, there is no need to worry about irrigation. There are several water sources near the fields. I looked at them and they probably flowed down from the rolling mountains."
After Lu Jianchuan heard this, he asked the maids to take away the food, took Gu Yunxi's hand, and talked while walking.
"Daughter-in-law, from what you say, it would be a good idea to buy a village in the suburbs of Beijing."
"It's just that I don't think there is any rush to buy Zhuangzi. We are new here and are not very familiar with the prices and location of Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. Why don't you ask my wife to find out more about it?"
Lu Jianchuan knew that his daughter-in-law had a very good relationship with Mrs. Yuan, and that both Shilang Yuan and Mrs. Yuan were kind people. If he knew that the couple wanted to buy Zhuangzi and asked them what they thought, they would definitely be happy to share it.
It’s always better to listen to other people’s opinions before adding such a valuable thing to your home!
Gu Yunxi didn't think much about it. She had an expected price in her mind. If the price was right, she could just cut it off. If the price was too high, she wouldn't buy it.
However, what Lu Jianchuan said makes sense. Listen to other people's opinions and adopt other people's suggestions.
"Okay, how about I go to see Zhuangzi tomorrow, so don't rush to make a decision. Wait until I come back to visit Mrs. Yuan and have a chat with her before making a decision?" Gu Yunxi discussed.
Lu Jianchuan nodded: "Well, this is best. Wife, how about I accompany you to see Zhuangzi tomorrow?"
Gu Yunxi shook his head and refused: "No, you have made an appointment with your teacher, and you didn't say it in advance, so it's hard to miss the appointment."
In order to spare time to instruct Lu Jianchuan, Yuan Shilang would hardly go out after returning except for morning meetings.
In Gu Yunxi's view, Lu Jianchuan should seize this precious opportunity and learn more from Yuan Shilang.
As for these trivial matters at home, if he can't let him worry about them, don't worry about them first.
Lu Jianchuan also knew in his heart that he was carrying not only his own future, but also the future of the entire Lu family.
Next spring, he must pass the examination and be named on the gold list!
Lu Jianchuan warned carefully: "Okay, wife, you must take Mo San with you when you go out, and bring some more people with you. Pay attention to your own safety."
Gu Yunxi watched him repeat the instructions tirelessly, and smiled with his lips pursed: "Oh, okay, okay, I know!"
On the second day, Gu Yunxi had breakfast and took Mo San, a few servants, and Xiao Cui straight to the south gate of the city.
When we arrived at the south gate of the city, yesterday's man was already waiting.
Seeing Gu Yunxi, the middle-aged man's eyes immediately lit up, and he smiled and waved: "Hey, Mrs. Lu, you are finally here."
Gu Yunxi smiled, got out of the carriage, and asked Xiao Cui to hand the bun in his hand to the stranger.
"It's so early, have you had breakfast? These are the buns made at home, do you want to try them?"
The man in the middle looked surprised and flattered, smiled and thanked him, reached out and took it, and took a big bite.
He lived in the north of the city. He was afraid that he would be late, so he got up early and walked to the gate of the south of the city. He hadn't even eaten breakfast yet.
The young lady Lu in front of him actually had such delicate thoughts and brought him meat buns. The man couldn't help but sigh.
He has been a middle-aged man for several years and has come into contact with all kinds of people, but no one is as considerate as Mrs. Lu and cares whether he has eaten breakfast or not.
Moreover, why do the Lu family’s meat buns taste so good? After eating one, the middle man couldn't help but gulp down the second bun.
After finishing a few meat buns in his hand, he still wanted to eat them!
"Mrs. Lu, how do you make your meat buns? Why do they taste so fragrant! I have eaten all kinds of buns in Beijing, but I have never tasted such a unique flavor. It's so fragrant!"
After the middle-aged man had eaten and drank enough, he felt that his whole body felt comfortable and more energetic, and he was full of energy even when flattering.
However, when he praised Lu's buns, he looked sincere and it didn't look like he was flattering.
Gu Yunxi couldn't help but laugh. In her previous life, she had been a social worker for so many years. She got up early and stayed late, and often helped her colleagues bring breakfast.
This time, it was also because she got up early, and she happened to be thinking that if she went to see Zhuangzi and couldn't get home in time at noon, she could eat some steamed buns to satisfy her hunger.
When she came to the south gate of the city, she saw the middle-aged man standing alone with his head raised in the distance. She thought that the middle-aged man might not have had breakfast, so she asked Xiaocui to give him some buns.
Gu Yunxi has always known that his own steamed buns taste good, but the compliments from the middle-aged man in front of him also made Gu Yunxi extremely happy.
She explained with a smile: "This is our Lu family's original meat buns. You can't eat them in the capital now. Maybe you can buy them if you have the chance in the future."
The middle-aged people were even more surprised. Could it be that the Lu family wanted to open a bun shop in the capital?
"Oh, Mrs. Lu, I wish your business a prosperous business in advance!" The middle-aged man smiled and held his hand.
Gu Yunxi also smiled, got back on the carriage, let the stranger get into the carriage at the back, and set off together to the outskirts of Beijing.
About an hour later, the carriage arrived at Zhuangzi, where the stranger said it was.
The entrance to the village was deserted, and the dirt road was overgrown with weeds. The middle man got off the carriage and walked in front, followed closely by Mo San, and Gu Yunxi followed behind Mo San.
After a while, I saw a row of short houses. There were three or two old people living in the houses. They were sitting in front of the door, shelling beans, and coughing from time to time.
"This, is this really Zhuangzi? Why does it feel like a wilderness..." Gu Yunxi muttered in his heart, not knowing what Zhuangzi had gone through before to make it so desolate.
The elderly people in front of the short houses seemed not surprised when they saw Gu Yunxi and his party. They only glanced at them, then lowered their heads and continued to peel beans.
This reaction made Gu Yunxi's doubts deepen and his curiosity even more intense.
