tired

Lu Rulan always ate alone in the room when eating, on the one hand, to avoid suspicion, she did not eat at the same table with Mr. Qin and the others.

On the one hand, she is not used to eating at the same table with outsiders. She feels that she is a woman from the countryside, and she is afraid of losing etiquette and embarrassing Lu Ziqian and the others.

She had never said these words to Lu Ziqian and Nan Qiqi, but Lu Ziqian was keenly aware of it. In order to make Lu Rulan feel more comfortable, he decided to choose a house as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, Lu Ziqian's family went to see the house. He was not familiar with the roads in the capital, so steward Qin took them to find a more reliable dental shop.

Last night, Lu Ziqian had already told Lu Rulan about the basic situation and his plans. Lu Rulan was also taken aback by the housing prices in the capital, but she had no choice. It doesn't matter if the house is smaller, as long as the family is together, it is also happiness to squeeze together of.

Both Nan Qiqi and Lu Rulan felt that they should buy a house near the Imperial College.

But the location of Guozijian is close to the imperial palace, and the price is frighteningly high. 1 taels can only buy a small house with a courtyard in the alley, which is similar to the two-bedroom and one-living room of later generations. There is no hut, but there are public huts.

And the room is very small, at most you can only put down a bed and a table, and only one person can enter the kitchen.

"The conditions are too difficult." Lu Ziqian lived in the dormitory of the Guozijian after entering school, but Qiqi and his mother wanted to live here. His little husband was going to line up with a group of people to grab the latrine, and he felt heartbroken.

And that hut has no partitions, his little husband's butt has to be seen by a group of people, he hasn't looked at it himself, and there is a big pit under the hut, which must be as deep as a person, if it is a foot Slip and fall in, if you don’t fall to your death, you have to be drowned in excrement...

Lu Ziqian didn't even dare to imagine, he waved his hands again and again, "There's no need to live here, the Imperial College stipulates that students must live in a dormitory, half a month before they can rest for a day, just buy something farther away."

He told the dentist that it doesn't matter if it's remote, at least it needs a second-entry house, a small yard, a toilet, and a room for servants.

After hearing Lu Ziqian's request, Yaren has several nice houses.

The closer the houses in the capital are to the palace, the more expensive they are, and the farthest they are from the palace, the cheaper they will be.

But the distance from the palace does not mean that it is remote. Even the outermost edge of the city is similar to the city center of other towns.

Not long after, they walked for about an hour in the car of the toothmen, and arrived at another urban area. This city was square, with the imperial palace in the middle, and it was divided into four urban areas around it. They are now in the western urban area.

The houses here don't seem so crowded anymore. In fact, there are also such neat small courtyards near the imperial city just now.

It's just that those smaller courtyards cost 10 taels, and the small courtyards here can buy one for 1 taels.

When Yaren told Lu Ziqian that he could buy it for only 1 taels, he subconsciously felt that 1 taels was too little, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this change in concept was terrible.

Before he came here, he had inquired about the housing prices in the town. A small yard like this only costs 100 taels, and 100 taels can still be negotiated.

But when we arrived in the capital, 1 taels had to be described with the word "only".

When they arrived at the gate, Yaren explained to them enthusiastically: "This place is very close to the main street, just across the street is the market, where you can buy everything, and the road here is flat."

Nan Qiqi had never lived in this kind of house before. When he walked to the gate, although it was not as big as the gate of Mr. Qin's house, it was much more grand than the ones in their village.

He fell in love with it almost after seeing only one door.

He tugged on his husband's sleeve and whispered in his ear: "I like this place."

Hearing this, Lu Ziqian rubbed Nan Qiqi's head and said, "No hurry, let's go in and have a look. If the inside is not bad, then we'll settle here. But don't show that you like it, or it won't be easy to bargain."

Nan Qiqi didn't expect Xianggong to be so experienced, and his admiration for him deepened. Anyway, he thinks Lu Ziqian is handsome in everything he does now, and he has added a lot of filters.

He nodded vigorously, "Okay, I will definitely not act like I like it very much."

Lu Ziqian rubbed Nan Qiqi's head. If he moves next time, he will definitely not let Nan Qiqi have this kind of performance. He must like it. Don't ask the price, just like he did when he bought things before time travel .

Push open the door and go in. There is a porter and a room for servants on the other side of the first door. Entering the second door is a rectangular yard with houses on all sides. It is not too big, but after seeing the crowded small houses just now, this The yard next to it is very large.

The yard is about the size of a basketball court, and there is a well in the yard. The Portuguese said that vegetables can be grown in the yard, and grape trellises can be used to grow grapes.

When Lu Ziqian heard this, it turns out that there are grapes in this world, but there are too few types of fruits in their village, and there is also little land. As long as there is a little land, they dig up and grow food. How can there be a place to grow fruits.

Lu Ziqian walked around and found that it really met his requirements. The house was big enough, including a kitchen, dining room, bedroom, main house and second bedroom, which were larger than the original rooms in the town, and there was also a servant's room.

There is a room on the other side of the outer door, which is probably for the porter and the coachman, and the inner room can be used for the cooking woman or maid.

Lu Ziqian hasn't decided whether to find a maid or not.

Before the crossing, there were housekeepers and servants in his family, both male and female, but he was single back then, and now it is ancient times.

If you find a man to work at home, Nan Qiqi is a husband, what if that man has bad thoughts?I still have to find some women who are about the same age as my mother to come back to help, and the doorkeeper chooses an honest man.

Before this kind of thing, he said that he would leave it to Nan Qiqi to do it, and it would be good to let Nan Qiqi practice it, and Nan Qiqi went by himself, so he could find some good friends.

The house was settled just like that, and the price was lowered a bit, 500 taels of silver. After signing the deed, the house was theirs.

Holding the house deed, Nan Qiqi was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, and she jumped up and down when she went back.

It's a pity that she couldn't live in immediately, otherwise Nan Qiqi would be happier.

When they went back, they found that Lin Ziyi was a guest at Mr. Qin's house. Not only Lin Ziyi was here, but Qian Yi was also here.

The two of them were facing each other at the gate.

"Our family remembers that the prince said that he would never enter the capital again in this life, how did he break the previous oath?" Lin Ziyi narrowed his eyes with a smile, but his tone was indeed one of chasing away guests.

Qian Yi gets annoyed every time he sees him, "I come whenever I want, and leave whenever I want. Do you think the capital city is owned by your family?"

Just as Qian Yi was talking, he saw Lu Ziqian and the others coming back, and waved to them happily.

"You are back!" Although Qian Yi is almost fifty years old, he is still very lively, but this liveliness will only be revealed when he meets Lu Ziqian and Nan Qiqi. Those people in the business field are still very serious.

"I brought you a lot of presents when I came to Beijing this time, go and have a look." Qian Yi pulled them to go inside.

Lin Ziyi stopped him for a while, and he gave Lu Ziqian a box, which contained 1 taels of housing funds given to them by the emperor. He asked Lu Ziqian, "I heard that you guys went to see the house, did you choose one?"

"I've already bought it." Lu Ziqian told him the address.

"The location isn't good enough, but it's not too bad. The emperor gave me too little money, but if you talk to me, I can subsidize you." Lin Ziyi said.

"Is it for you?" Qian Yi pushed him away, "The location over there is too remote, we are very happy, how can we suffer this kind of suffering, I have several mansions in Beijing, you can choose whatever you want, Live wherever you want."

Nan Qiqi shook her head, "Thank you, Uncle Qian, no need, I really like my current house."

No matter how good other people's houses are, they don't have a sense of belonging. No matter how small their own house is, Nan Qiqi will feel safe and at ease.

"Well, I knew you would say that," Qian Yi said with pity in his tone, he always wanted to give Lu Ziqian and his family a good life, but whether it was to persuade Lu Ziqian or Nan Qiqi, there was no way to convince them.

However, he believed that with Lu Ziqian's ability, he could get what he wanted within a few years.

Qian Yi looked at Lin Ziyi, "It's time for us to eat, you should go back quickly, there is no food for you."

Qian Yi didn't give Lin Ziyi face so much, Lin Ziyi didn't get angry, he still smiled and saluted, and left with others.

Lu Ziqian and the others returned to the Qin residence, and indeed when it was time to eat, Qian Yi ordered food from the kitchen as enthusiastically as if he was at home.

He also asked someone to bring in several large boxes, and opened one of them. Inside were the Four Treasures of the Study, all of which were the best and most expensive. "This is an entrance ceremony for Ziqian."

Lu Ziqian raised his eyebrows, "So much, how many years will I have to use it?"

"Hey, it's not all for you to read and write." Qian Yi put his arms around his shoulders enthusiastically, "And that recipe, draw more. I heard that you planted peppers again. Don't draw another picture of this pepper. Ben?"

Qian Yi was like an enthusiastic fan, and couldn't wait to go to Lu Ziqian to press for the manuscript.

"You mentioned this, and there is something I want to discuss with you." Lu Ziqian has no time and energy to open a restaurant now, but he can cooperate with Qian Yi. "I plan to rent a village outside the city to grow vegetables. When the vegetables are mature I will sell you the restaurant and the cooking method, and I will divide each dish."

"Yes, yes." Qian Yi now looks at him as if he is the God of Wealth. Although Qian Yi is the richest man now, who would dislike having too much money? If you sell it to you, you don't have to pay now, and you will deduct it from the share in the future, what do you think?"

"Okay, but you have to settle the accounts clearly." Lu Ziqian thought, should he hire a Mr. accountant, he inherited the family business directly after graduation before time travel, the family company has everything, his father has taken care of everything, Including those customers are also personally introduced to him.

When he took over the company, the reputation of his company was already very high, and he didn't need to do publicity at all. What he wanted to do was not to make money, but how to keep the inherited property.

But now it's different, everything has to be done by himself.

"I'm here to discuss business. I still have a gift for Qiqi." Qian Yi gave Nan Qiqi a box of jewelry.

Both men and women wear jewelry these days, and even men wear jewelry. Men in this era are prettier than women and men. You can often see men in brightly colored clothes with a flower on their powdered hair on the street.

The set Qian Yi gave Nan Qiqi is suitable for brother to bring, "A few days ago I got a set of emeralds, I knew it was suitable for Qiqi, so I asked someone to make it and bring it, see if you like it ?”

Nan Qiqi looked at the jewelry in the box, it wasn't very exaggerated, a hairpin, similar to men's belts, a pair of jade bracelets, and a jade pendant around her waist.

He looked really excited.It's just that he understands that the things Qian Yi gave him are all for Lu Ziqian's face.

So he turned his head to see what Lu Ziqian meant, and when he saw Lu Ziqian nodding, he accepted it.

Lu Ziqian also took out the chili powder he made himself and gave it to Qian Yi, "This is a gift from us. These chili peppers were raised by Qi Qi with his own hands, so they have different meanings."

"Wow, that's really precious." Qian Yi happily put away the pepper, "I'll taste it well."

……

Lu Ziqian discussed with Lin Ziyi, they just moved here, there are a lot of things to do, he will go to the Imperial College to enroll again in a month.

Lin Ziyi said that he would go and tell the emperor for him that he needn't worry, just take his time.

I bought a house today. Although I didn't live in it, the whole family is very happy.

At night, Nan Qiqi was so happy that she couldn't sleep, she smirked on the bed with her eyes open.

Lu Ziqian took his hand and pressed it to his chest, "Go to bed early, tomorrow we have to find a carpenter to make furniture, just buy the necessary pieces of furniture off-the-shelf, live in first, and wait for the rest to move in." Additions are fine."

Nan Qiqi nodded, he couldn't wait, he wished he could go to his new house and sleep on the floor.

"In the future, if I go to class and I'm not at home, you can also go to Mr. Qin's class. Mr. Qin told me not to miss your homework." Lu Ziqian said.

Nan Qiqi nodded, "Well, reading is very interesting, and writing poetry is also..."

He whispered what was in his heart, and he felt the power of knowledge.

In the last life, he didn't study, and everyone hated him. In this life, he read books and wrote poems. Everyone thinks he is very powerful. Unlike ordinary brothers, everyone who sees him praises him and respects him.So he didn't want to give up reading.

They went to look at the furniture early the next morning, and Lu Rulan told them to watch the sale, and she wanted to go home to tidy up first.

Lu Ziqian said that it would be good to let them clean after buying the servants, but Lu Rulan said that she was panicking because she had been making tofu every day in the village for half her life.

And when he was in the village, he had to get up early every day to cook, take care of the vegetable garden, and take care of the affairs of the field and the chickens, ducks and geese at home.

It was fine when I was on my way, but after I arrived at Mr. Qin's house, someone helped me with everything, not to mention washing and cooking, and even helping me to wash up in the morning.

She really can't stand the days when others have to help even comb her hair, and she can't wait to move out of Mr. Qin's house as soon as possible.

So this time she moved, she had to clean it herself, and she didn't even want Lu Ziqian to buy someone back.

She can cook, do housework, and drive a car. She can do everything by herself, so why spend money to buy people back and take care of their meals.

Lu Rulan felt that buying some chickens, ducks and geese would be better than buying a few people, so that they could eat meat and lay eggs.

But Lu Rulan kept these words in her heart. Lu Ziqian felt sorry for her and Nan Qiqi, and didn't want them both to be troubled. Her son had always had ideas. When the child grew up, let him have any ideas, but he wanted Don't try to stop Lu Ziqian from going home to work.

Lu Ziqian also knew that Lu Rulan had big ideas, and no one could change what she decided, so he could only follow Lu Rulan's wishes.

They first drove Lu Rulan to the newly bought house in a donkey cart, and then he and Nan Qiqi went to see the furniture.

The prices in the capital are expensive, but the styles of things are newer than those in the village, and the materials are better.

They bought two beds, a table with chairs, and some pots and pans, all ready-made for delivery.

It costs 100 taels of silver to buy such a bunch of things.

When Lu Ziqian went out in the morning, he gave Nan Qiqi a money bag with 200 taels of silver in it, saying it was the renovation funds for their new home.

Nan Qiqi also said that he didn't need so much, ten taels of silver would be enough.

But he forgot that ten taels of silver was the price in the village, and it was ten times the price in the capital.

The items will be delivered three days after they are ordered, and they will have to find someone to paint the walls in these two days.

Painting walls in this era is different from later generations. There is no formaldehyde, but it is easy to peel off the wall, which has advantages and disadvantages.

They went to find workers to paint the walls at home, and repair the yard of the house by the way, especially the roof tiles. If there are any broken ones, they should be replaced to avoid rain leakage.

Lu Rulan went to the new house to pull out the weeds in the yard. She didn't know that the house had been unoccupied for several years, and the weeds were half the height of a person. There was also a lot of rubbish in the house, so she moved out and threw it away.

The family of three was exhausted these past few days, and it took almost half a month before they finally moved in.

When she moved in, Nan Qiqi's previous excitement disappeared, and all that was left was exhaustion.

There are still some furniture that have not been added, and the servants have not looked for them, and the Zhuangzi outside the city has not sown seeds. Thinking of these, Nan Qiqi feels powerless and has nothing to love.

At night, when he was lying on the bed after taking a bath, Lu Ziqian held his waist and squeezed it, but he didn't feel anything, and he couldn't turn his tired head.

Lu Ziqian approached and sniffed his little husband's neck, "What kind of soap did you use? Why is the smell different from mine?"

Nan Qiqi didn't wash with Lu Ziqian today, they lived in the same room before, if he took a bath, Lu Ziqian would definitely see him, and in the end it became the two of them washing together.

But now there is no need to take a bath in the room, and a room is specially designated for taking a bath. Lu Ziqian only found out after Nan Qiqi finished washing, feeling like he missed a hundred million.

"It's not the same," Nan Qiqi was confused, and directly raised her hand to press Lu Ziqian's face, pushing his face away, "We are using the same piece of soap."

"But why are you more fragrant?" Lu Ziqian held his hand and pulled him into his arms, wanting to say some sweet words to tease his little husband, but in the end he heard his little husband snoring .

He had never heard Nan Qiqi snore before, "This is exhausting, let's rest for a while, next time I won't let you off so easily, I will kiss your mouth swollen."

Nan Qiqi snorted in her sleep, and raised her hand to cover his mouth.
