Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

The procedure for buying a house was very simple. Xu Huaiyi first gave Hu Yingjie five taels of silver as a deposit, and then happily moved in with his wife, daughter and children.

As for other things, we’ll take care of them tomorrow.

Originally, when Xu Huaiyi said that this house was built by a rich man, Gu Huanxi thought it would be rich and luxurious. However, looking at the door and the bamboos on both sides of the door, she suddenly became unsure. She waited for the lock to be unlocked before continuing. Walking around, what she saw completely shattered her original guesses.

There is no wealth or splendor, but the elegance of a scholar is everywhere.

This is a surprise.

We entered the courtyard three times in total. There was nothing special about the first one. Only a few brick carving patterns on the wall showed some delicacy and elegance. In addition, there was a clump of bamboo planted in the corner. Judging from the variety, it was the rare purple bamboo. , you don’t need many flowers and plants, just these few bamboos will be full of elegance and interest.

Any more would be a burden.

After passing the hanging flower gate, you will enter the second courtyard, which is also the main courtyard. The owner lives and entertains guests here daily, so the building is spacious and grand. The most eye-catching thing is the two ginkgo trees, with thick and straight branches reaching into the sky. , with a huge crown. At this time, it is the most beautiful time of the year. The gorgeous golden leaves sparkle like gold, blowing to the ground with the wind, like spreading a gorgeous golden carpet.

Xu Huaiyi immediately decided not to touch this place when he was cleaning the yard later. His wife would definitely like this kind of style.

Sure enough, Gu Huanxi was already telling Wei Ci, "Sweep the yard soon and avoid this area."

Although Wei Ci was puzzled, he subconsciously agreed.

Gu Huanxi looked around again. In addition to the ginkgo trees, there were also plum blossoms. In addition, there was a peace tank in the center of the yard. The water inside was so turbid that she couldn't see anything, but she somehow felt that there were lotus flowers growing in it.

So the original owner was actually an elegant person?

That's right, no one stipulates that wealthy people who do business cannot be well-educated, they must be careful about spending every penny, be shallow and vulgar, and smell like copper.

Inside the house, Gu Huanxi was not in a hurry to go in. After not living there for several years, there must have been thick dust and cobwebs, and maybe rats and snakes. She was really worried about this, but she liked the appearance anyway. , thinking that the furnishings inside wouldn’t be too bad, so he asked Wei Liang and others to go in and clean it first.

Wei Liang and Wei An, when she was visiting the yard just now, had already brought in all the food and other things, and the mules and carts were parked properly. After hearing her instructions, they each found someone to clean up.

Gu Xiaoyu also rolled up his sleeves to help.

Gu Huanxi went to Sanjin Courtyard again. There was supposed to be a small garden here, but it had been abandoned for a few years, and now its original appearance was no longer visible. It was all covered by overgrown weeds. There were also three houses in the middle, as well as the east and west wings. It's just not as big as the main courtyard. Usually the female relatives of the family who have not left the pavilion live here.

Looking back and forth, Gu Huanxi was dissatisfied with only one thing, "Why isn't there a place where you can enjoy the view of the lake? Wouldn't that just blind the lake?"

Xu Huaiyi said immediately, "It's easy. I'll get you a window on the wall later. If you open the window, you can see the lake view."

Gu Huanxi reminded silently, "There is no such operation here."

Xu Huaiyi was confused, "Huh? Isn't it possible? Is it still a taboo?"

Gu Huanxi shook his head, "It's not a taboo, but it's too out of place. I might as well open a side door and just go out and have a look..."

Xu Huaiyi touched his palms and took over the words excitedly, "Okay, tomorrow I will encircle the surrounding land, open the side door, and build a pavilion outside. Then, we can drink tea, read a book, and enjoy the scenery and breeze. , won’t you be able to realize the life you wanted before?”

Gu Huanxi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Do you still remember?"

She did say it before, but it was just a fantasy. After all, at that time, they wanted to buy a large villa on the mountainside with a view of the lake. With their financial ability, it was simply impossible.

Who would have thought that coming here would be achieved effortlessly.

Xu Huaiyi put his arms around her shoulders and said softly, "I remember everything you said. There are some things I haven't done. It's not that I forgot, but that I still can't do it. But as long as you think about it, I will work hard in the future." Help you achieve it.”

When this enemy became serious, she felt a little uncomfortable. Gu Huanxi said "hmm" and changed the subject in a covert manner, "Have everyone found a good house and settled down?"

Xu Huaiyi followed her words and said, "Basically, everyone has moved in. When I came to see you, there were still a few families who were hesitating. Didn't the yard lose two places? There were a few families who were not well-off and had a small population. I want to live together for the time being, and we are discussing how to allocate rooms. Most of them are very happy and are already busy cleaning up. Everyone is very diligent. If they are not arranged properly, I will not be able to sleep tonight. "

"You said before that you wanted to ask a monk to chant sutras and be saved, are you still okay?"

"It depends on the situation. If conditions permit, it's better to solve An An's mental calculations so that they don't have to worry about anything in the future."

Gu Huanxi nodded and asked, "Did Dr. Jiao prescribe any medicine to fumigate the house?"

Xu Huaiyi said, "Yes, it's open, but he can't get so much medicine for a while, so he asked the villagers to find some mugwort for fumigation, and he will think of a way tomorrow. By the way, he bought it across the lake." That house is not as big as ours, it only has one entrance, but it is enough for him to live by himself."

Hearing this, Gu Huanxi couldn't help but smile and said, "That's a coincidence. We used to live opposite each other in Xujia Village at the foot of the mountain. I didn't expect it would still be like this when we came here."

Xu Huaiyi said with emotion, "It's all fate."

"Then you bought this place, uncle didn't say anything, right?"

"I wanted to say it, but then I saw that there were only a few decent houses in the village, and they couldn't tell them apart. How could they persuade me to grab them? There were thatched houses, but after so many days of traveling, he also knew our It makes no sense for them to live in a brick house, but they ask us to buy a shabby house for one tael of silver. Isn’t that degrading us? So he can’t open his mouth, so we can only decide for ourselves."

"So, he bought the yard for eight taels of silver?"

"Well, he has one place, his fourth uncle has another place, Village Chief Xu, Second Uncle Gao, and Uncle Liu also all have a place each. Even if the others have money, they can't buy it."

"Get settled first, and then find someone to cover it again later."

"Then you don't have to spend more money and put in more effort. Besides, the weather is getting colder and no one is doing much construction in the winter. We can't bear the consequences. If we want to rectify it, it will have to be in the spring of next year. It also depends on whether we have enough money. The best we can do now is to clean it up. Check the roof and courtyard walls, and I will go up to our house later to have a look..."

While the couple chatted incessantly, they had almost finished cleaning up front, focusing on the five rooms in the main room first, and then slowly tidying up the others.
