I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

West Mansion.

Several masters from the West Palace came back from the East Palace and gathered in the second master's courtyard.

"Second brother, do you really want to pay 15,000 silver coins and sell the house to the East Palace?" The third master pointed in the direction of the East Palace.

"What else?" The second master poured himself a cup of hot tea.

"Isn't this too much of a loss? Such a big house, even though you only have half of it, but this kind of location can't be bought even if you have money!" Lao Ba sat down opposite his second brother, picked up a cup of cold tea and drank it all in one gulp, obviously unwilling to sell the house for such a small amount of money.

"If you ask me, I don't think they can come up with 15,000 taels of silver." Lao Liu stroked his beard lightly, looking very confident in his words.

"But what if? As the saying goes, even a broken boat still has three nails left!" The fourth brother, who has always been at odds with the sixth brother, couldn't help but argue.

"Tsk~ Just now when Fourth Brother went over there, I'm afraid his eyesight was blurry and he didn't see clearly. How much of that yard is abandoned? If the mansion had money, would they let such a nice yard be abandoned like this?"

Although it was already dark when they passed by just now, how many places in the entire East Palace had lights on?

Even in the unlit places, one could see how desolate they were by the moonlight.

Unlike their West Palace, once it gets dark, the entire West Palace is brightly lit.

The fourth master only saw that the West Mansion was brightly lit, but he did not think about the large population of the West Mansion. With so many people crammed into one courtyard, the level of liveliness was naturally incomparable to that of the East Mansion.

Of course, the West Palace has been marrying off constantly over the years, and the economy of the palace is not much better than that of the East Palace.

In addition, the public storehouse was burned last time, and apart from the private property of each family, there is really nothing left in the mansion. Even if the property is divided, each family will not get much.

This is also one of the reasons why Master Xifu is in a hurry to sell the house.

After selling the house, they would have enough money to buy a house in the civilian areas in the north or south of the city, which would be better than squeezing in a small yard with their brother's family.

The second master saw that they were arguing about this matter, and hurriedly interrupted them, "Alright! Stop talking, who doesn't want to make more money?

This house belongs to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and the title deed also belongs to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. If we don’t sell it to the Dong Mansion, who else can we sell it to?

The old lady is willing to buy it now, we take the money and move out quickly to make room. If she doesn't want to buy it, you should be anxious."

The second master could see clearly that there were only a few people in the East Mansion and they really had no use for half of the house. The old lady decided to buy it just for the sake of her ancestral heritage.

If they open their mouths too wide, and Dongfu won't be able to pay that much money, and they won't buy it, can they still sell it to others?

Others are willing to empty their family fortunes and be filial sons and grandchildren in order to preserve their ancestral heritage. We in the West Mansion cannot sell our ancestral heritage to others and become unfilial descendants just for a few more taels of silver, right?

"Brother, I'm not saying I won't sell it to the East Palace, it's just that the silver is too little. We have 20 brothers, and two of my younger brothers are not married yet. If we divide the 15,000 taels of silver, each family will only get 750 taels of silver. I won't talk about my two children first, but you have several grandchildren now, what can you do in the capital with that little money?"

"There's nothing we can do, so why don't we just not move?" the second master said deliberately.

It is impossible not to move. They are civilians now, and the structure of the house is not suitable for ordinary people to live in. If they still refuse to leave, they will be beaten at best and sent to jail at worst.

This is also the second reason why they are in a hurry to move out.

The second master's words reminded everyone.

What else can they say?

But he couldn't help but resent the old lady for being too cruel, so he immediately cut the price in half.

But they had no good solution for this matter.

Several masters were very depressed, but there was nothing they could do.

The next morning, after Shen Rong got up, she found that most of the servants in Guiyuan had been replaced.

Shen Rong thought it was probably the old lady's work, so she didn't say anything.

Juxiang saw that Shen Rong noticed the servants in the yard, and explained, "Chun Xing and Qiu Xia were beaten with sticks and are now lying in their rooms. The old lady has replaced the maids and arranged a nanny to guard our yard. The old lady said that the servants in the mansion are not very capable and it is a pity for the young lady."

After the last incident, Wang Qing questioned all the servants in the mansion, and those who had problems were not kept, so the number of servants in the mansion was reduced again and again.

Shen Rong didn't mind these things. She had managed to live like this before when there were no servants. There was no reason why she couldn't live like this now that there were fewer servants.

As for those old women who were guarding the house, Shen Rong really didn't care about them. Moreover, there was the matter of those old women entering the yard to snatch people away, so Shen Rong would not plead for them.

"It's better to have fewer people. We could live like this before, so there's no reason why we can't live like this now." Shen Rong said calmly.

Seeing her master's reaction, Juxiang stopped talking about the servants.

After having breakfast in the yard, Shen Rong packed the silver and banknotes she had prepared yesterday into a box.

Changsheng knew that Shen Rong was planning to use the money to buy a house for the old lady, but he didn't say that he was unwilling to take the money.

The old lady had just finished her breakfast when Shen Rong and the others carried the boxes to Minghui Courtyard.

"Greetings, old lady." Shen Rong bowed to the old lady, and the two children beside her also bowed and greeted the great-grandmother.

Changsheng, who was standing by, placed a large box in the hall and bowed to the old lady.

The old lady asked the family of four to sit down, pointed at the box, and asked curiously: "What's in it?"

Shen Rong raised her head and glanced at the main hall. Seeing that only Nanny Hua was in the room, she signaled Changsheng to open the box.

As soon as the box was opened, the white silver and a stack of banknotes of various denominations fell into everyone's eyes.

Shen Rong and Changsheng knew how much silver was in the box, so they were very calm.

The two children did not quite understand the importance of silver. They were only busy eating the snacks in their hands, so they did not care how much silver was in the box.

"Oh my God! Madam... this..." It had been a long time since Nanny Hua had seen so much silver at once. She was so surprised that she almost couldn't close her mouth.

It’s not that five thousand taels of silver is a lot of money, but it’s surprising that a young couple from the countryside could come up with this amount of silver.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Aunt Hua looks down on people, but it's not easy to earn so much money in this remote and poor place.

When the old lady saw that Shen Rong spent so much silver, she was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.

"You...how do you have so much silver?"

The old lady asked this question not because she really wanted to know the origin of the silver, but she was too surprised that Shen Rong spent five thousand taels of silver.

As for the ginseng that Shen Rong sent along, it seemed less impressive in the old lady's eyes.

Shen Rong was not in a hurry. She lowered her eyes and said, "Old Madam, this money is what we saved from running a clinic and selling herbs. There are a total of five thousand taels of silver. I hope I can help a little."

The old lady looked at the stack of banknotes of various denominations in front of her and was speechless for a long time.

Nanny Hua, who was standing by, was extremely happy when she saw Shen Rong sending so much silver.

"Madam, with this money, we only need to sell the shop, and we should be able to keep the manor."
