With eleven more people, it is obvious that the Lu family cannot accommodate them anymore.
He Yunxi rented another small courtyard for Zhao Feng and others to live in, and only planned to take Zhu Yue and Chi Yue back.
Lu Yan went to the academy and she was left alone to deal with these matters. Zhang Si was even more impressed with He Yunxi.
"It just so happens that there is a courtyard for rent on your street, just a dozen houses away from you. It only takes two cups of tea to walk there. However, the courtyard is not small, and the rent is a bit expensive."
"How many?"
"One tael of silver a month."
This is indeed a bit expensive, but more than a hundred taels of people have bought it, so she still cares about the rent? Just because it is close, it is worth it.
He Yunxi happily paid three months' rent. We will see if he wants to renew the rent after three months.
Then she returned with the lease and eleven deeds of sale.
I rented two carriages to take everyone back. When I passed by a clothing store, I bought a pair of cotton-padded clothes for the eleven people, as well as new bedding and other things. I asked the clothing store to deliver them to the Lu family in a while.
When he arrived at the Lu family, He Yunxi asked people to get out of the car and took them to pay homage to the Liu family, and met a few young masters by the way.
Mrs. Liu knew about the purchase, so she was not surprised to see these people and said the same thing as last time.
The four little guys were surprised that their family had bought another person!
After Ms. Liu finished her training, she waved to Lu Yunjiao and Lu Yunqing: "Jiaojiao, Qingqing, come here."
The two little girls ran over. He Yunxi pointed at Zhu Yue and Chi Yue and said, "These two are your maids. They are both skilled. They will follow you from now on. You each choose one."
"For us?" Lu Yunjiao asked.
He Yunxi nodded: "Well, go ahead and choose."
Lu Yunjiao glanced at the two maids and asked, "Which one of them is more powerful?"
He Yunxi had let the two of them fight before in Yahang, so he directly blamed Chi Yue: "Chi Yue is more powerful."
"Then give Chi Yue to Xiao Liu, I choose Zhu Yue." Lu Yunjiao said.
"confirmed?"
"Hmm. Xiaoliu is younger and not very good at using poison, so she needs someone stronger to protect her." Lu Yunjiao said.
He Yunxi touched Lu Yunjiao's head and praised: "Jiaojiao is such a good sister, so that's it?"
"Uh-huh."
Mrs. Liu was very satisfied with Lu Yunjiao's choice.
Only when brothers, friends, and brothers are respectful, and sisters are kind and affectionate, can a family be well.
She was also happy that He Yunxi bought a girl for the two children. Mrs. Liu also knew about the two girls who were almost abducted the night before. She originally wanted to buy a girl for the two girls, but now He Yunxi bought it.
came back.
"Their clothes were brought back directly. Mother Zhao, take them down and wash them carefully, and then arrange a room for them." He Yunxi ordered.
"Yes, madam." Mrs. Zhao led the two of them down.
The two little girls were very interested in their maid and went to see her.
He Yunxi then said to Lu Yu and Lu Qi: "None of the people I bought this time are suitable for you two. When I meet someone suitable later, I will buy a book boy for each of you."
"Sister-in-law, we don't need it." Lu Yu is older and is very impressed by the hard life of these two years. Now they can have enough to eat and can study, which he thinks is pretty good. As for book boys and other things, he
Didn't think about it.
As for Lu Yunjiao and Lu Yunqing having maids, she also thinks it is appropriate. They are girls, so it is more dangerous to go out.
"That's right, we are boys, we don't need servants and bookboys to serve us, and we don't need to spend this money." Lu Qi also said.
"In our family, both boys and girls are the same. If they have it, you should have it too." He Yunxi said, "Are you two okay now?"
"fine."
"If you have nothing to do, then go and help me arrange them together." He Yunxi said.
Lu Yu looked at the remaining nine people and frowned slightly: "Sister-in-law, there are too many people. Our family can no longer accommodate so many people."
"I rented a house at the end of the street, and after they finish washing, I will live there." He Yunxi said, "But the house over there has not been occupied for two months, so it needs to be tidied up first. We will do it later."
Let's take half of the people over to clean up first, and the remaining half should take a bath here. When they're done washing up, they can go over and change people and come back to wash up."
"Then let's take people to see it first?"
He Yunxi asked the four older ones to stay and wash up, and took the five younger ones with him. He also took Liangchen Liangji and the others with him. When he was going out, he happened to meet someone from a clothing store coming to deliver clothes and quilts, so he asked them to bring them with him.
The clothes were put down and the quilt was delivered to the rented house.
He Yunxi walked there for seven or eight minutes. He took the key and opened the door. He found that the yard was similar to their current yard. It also had two entrances, but it was much more shabby.
The people at the clothing store put down the quilts and left. He Yunxi asked a few people to clean up, and he took Lu Yu and Lu Qi around the yard.
Everything here is complete, and it meets Zhang Si’s move-in requirements.
Several adults worked together to clean up. First, they tidied up the house where they were staying tonight, made the bed, and then tidied up the other rooms and the yard. In the meantime, they changed people and went back to take a shower. They finally tidied up a bit before dark. It was okay.
Checked in.
There were a lot of people in the Lu family eating now, so she didn't plan to let them eat there. There happened to be a cook, so He Yunxi had some food and firewood brought over and let them cook by themselves.
She also stayed to taste the cooking skills of the two cooks.
It's not bad, a little better than when Mrs. Zhao first came to the Lu family.
He Yunxi's heart began to agitate when she saw someone. At night, she took all the money and took stock of it.
In addition to what Mu Qian had given her on the opening day, she had one thousand five hundred taels of silver on hand.
With one thousand five hundred taels, you can try to see the shop in Liaozhou. But with this little money to buy the shop, you can't do anything later.
It's better to buy land and build a workshop first. The soy sauce and vinegar must be kept up, otherwise there will be nothing to sell later.
But she doesn't plan to ask Zhang Si here. Tomorrow she will go to the county office to ask Luo Zixuan and find a wasteland to do it.
When Lu Yan came back in the evening, she told him and he agreed with her idea and gave her a suggestion.
"Do you remember the mountains twenty miles east of the county seat?"
"Remember, when we first entered the county, we came out from there. That mountain is connected with the mountain behind Wangjiacun."
"There is a water source in that mountain, and you should be able to dig a well at the foot of the mountain." Lu Yan said, "If you want to buy it, you can buy that mountain and the wasteland in front of it."
"Okay." He Yunxi agreed, "However, the land is not far from the results. Why is no one buying it? Is it still a wasteland?"
"Some people bought it at the beginning, but the land was relatively thin, the grain yield was low, and the taxes were not enough, so no one bought it later."
"That would be suitable for building a workshop. I'll go to the county government office tomorrow to ask about it."
