Chapter 157 Buying a House

But because of a winter and being taken care of properly, the original ones in the yard grew stronger and more lush than before, with luxuriant branches and leaves.

Some have spread over a large area due to the growth of rhizomes, and some have sprouted new shoots due to the fall of seeds in autumn...

In short, almost half of the yard is occupied by these flowers and plants, and it is time for flowers and leaves to grow. At a glance, green, pink, red or yellow flowers are hidden in it, which looks very pleasing to the eye.

And some flowers smell fragrant.

Jiang Mixia once thought about picking some flowers to put in vases and put them in the house, but he had no choice but to give up when he thought that Xun Yuanbai said that these unattractive wild flowers and weeds were all rare herbs.

After all, it would be a waste of money to put these precious herbs in a bottle.

But when I thought that the purpose of digging flowers and plants in the mountains was originally to decorate the yard and house, but now I have to take good care of them, I feel a little aggrieved.

In order to relieve her depressed mood, Jiang Mixia simply went to the flower shops in the town and the county for a few times, and bought a lot of potted plants and other things.

One of the pots was specially selected for Song Jingyun - a small pot of dwarf banyan tree.

Jiang Mixia placed it on Song Jingyun's desk, so that the little son-in-law could see a bright green when he raised his eyes while reading, which is very suitable.

And Song Jingyun also liked it quite a lot, and even put those small stones picked up from the mountains before on the roots of the banyan bonsai as decorations.

In order to make the banyan tree look good and the soil maintain a certain amount of moisture, the seller specially cultivated a layer of moss on the top of the soil. At this time, the stones that are covered with moss and cannot be seen are not obtrusive, and even look good.

Jiang Mixia fully approves of the young son-in-law's aesthetics.

After the purchase and arrangement of these potted flowers and so on, the dental shop in the county has news.

Said that he found the courtyard that Jiang Mixia wanted.

The examination will be held in August.

The college examination is hosted by the school administration in various places, and the examination place is usually in the place where the school administration is located or nearby prefectures, counties, etc.

However, in order to avoid fraud and buying and selling test questions in the imperial examinations, the location of each government examination is not fixed. At the end of May, lots are drawn to determine the final location of the examination.

Coincidentally, this year's exam location is in Fengyang County.

Therefore, Jiang Mixia wanted to determine the courtyard to buy as soon as possible, after tidying up and repairing, he could move in smoothly before the government examination, which would also make it easier for Song Jingyun to take the government examination at that time.

Based on this idea, Jiang Mixia went to Yahang with Jiang Youcheng on the second day after he got the news, and followed the people from Yahang to see the courtyard.

The standard one-entry courtyard occupies a large area, the house is spacious, and the yard is big enough. The year of construction is not long, but because no one has lived in it for a long time, the whole courtyard looks very barren, and even the grass in the courtyard has grown halfway. People come high.

"Since the courtyard was built, it has only been inhabited for more than half a year, and only the servants of the guards live here. They only live in the west wing, and neither the east wing nor the main house have ever entered."

The clerk of the tooth shop introduced, "This courtyard was originally built by a family surnamed Yuan in the county. Because the relationship between his daughter-in-law and his daughter was not good, the family specially built a courtyard for his daughter so that he could live in it when he went home to visit relatives. As a result, the daughter never came back because of her distant marriage, but now the entire Yuan family has moved out to live with her daughter and son-in-law."

"Later, Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan died of illness one after another, and this house was forgotten, and even the servants no longer guarded it carefully. It was not until some time ago that Mr. Yuan's son discovered the house deed and land deed here. I'm going to sell it, and the money I get in exchange is going to be given to my sister and brother-in-law, it's a reward for taking care of me for so many years."

"I have inquired carefully about this house. There is nothing wrong with this house, and nothing inauspicious has happened. There is a well in the house, and the walls are made of blue bricks and stones. They are quite strong. If Mrs. Jiang wants to buy it, Just tidy up the yard, clean the inside and outside, and fix the roof tiles."

The house has been growing for a long time, but the neighbors are not afraid, only the roof is not cleaned for a long time, it is easy to accumulate soil and leaves, etc., it is washed by rain in summer, frozen by ice and snow in winter, and the tiles will be broken or the drainage will not be smooth Happening.

The waiter continued, "If Mrs. Jiang doesn't have time and doesn't want to bother, the tooth dealer can find useful people to do these jobs, and the price is fair and reasonable. Mrs. Jiang can just come and clean the yard when the time comes."

Jiang Mixia and Jiang Youcheng had just carefully looked inside and outside the courtyard.

The house is indeed solid, the overall structure is also good, and the location is even better.

No matter it is not far from the examination room, the county school, or Wende College, after going out, it turns a corner and exits the alley to the street, which is convenient for daily expenses, eating and drinking.

Moreover, this house costs 150 taels of silver, and the price is not bad.

Jiang Mixia nodded immediately, "Okay, you guys need someone to clean up this courtyard, and I'll settle the money for you when the time comes."

For professional matters, you still need to find professional people.

Yaxing has been doing this kind of business for a long time, and the people who are hired to do the work are also quite experienced, so that it saves a lot of effort than buying these things by themselves.

"Come on, Madam Jiang, don't worry, I will definitely take care of this matter." The clerk hurriedly responded, and led Jiang Mixia and Jiang Youcheng to the dental shop to sign the papers and pay a deposit.

After finishing their work, Jiang Mixia and Jiang Youcheng walked home.

On the way back, Jiang Mixia was thinking about the layout of each room just now.

Bedroom, study, utility room, kitchen, guest room...

The decoration, furnishings, furniture, and some soft things of each house.

How big should the bed be, what material should the table be made of, how high should the chair be, how big should the dining table be...

Jiang Mi Xia suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Sure enough, throughout the ages, this decoration has been an extremely complicated and laborious thing.

Jiang Mixia was worrying here with her head supported, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Jiang Youcheng driving the bullock cart with a whip, and his face was also full of sadness.

"Father, why are you so unhappy?" Jiang Mixia couldn't help asking.

Jiang Youcheng turned his face away, did not answer Jiang Mixia's words, and even sighed.

"Hey……"

This sigh was eloquent and long, and it seemed to bring a sense of heartbreak.

"This is... what's wrong?" Jiang Mixia became more and more like a monk, and couldn't figure it out.

After a while, Jiang Youcheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Mixia with complicated eyes, "If you move to the county, will you come back?"

When you come back, do you still remember your parents?
