Chapter 821 My house has to be taken back

Mrs. Ying raised her eyebrows but said nothing.

Yuan Bao asked doubtfully, "Grandma Ying, how many years have you lived here in total?"

"Twenty-three years." Mrs. Ying remembered clearly that she had been living here since they dug her out of the grave.

"Then how much silver is the annual rent from the very beginning?"

"It was five taels of silver from the beginning, and it has not changed until now." Granny Ying answered truthfully.

Yuan Bao looked at Xia's father and Xia's mother, "That's interesting. The annual rent of five taels of silver will be 23 five taels of silver in 110 years.

Although this money cannot buy a big house in the capital, it is enough to buy an ordinary small house.

Your mountain village is so remote. If you rent it out normally, you won't need a rent of fifty cents a month, right?
Add it all up, and you can't even use half a tael of silver, let alone five taels of silver. "

"Whether you are really honest or pretending to be confused, you and your wife don't know clearly, but I can see clearly. Grandma Ying, what was this house like when you first moved in?" Yuan Bao asked again.

"The wind and rain are leaking, and everything is desolate." Mrs. Ying sighed.

"Then you spent a lot of money on repairs, right?"

"About 20 taels of silver."

When Granny Ying talked about this, she sighed.

When they first moved in, this was the Xia family's old house, so they were willing to rent it out.

During that time, she spent a lot of money, the tiles had to be replaced, and the collapsed walls had to be rebuilt.

Because she was not from the village, the cost of hiring a helper more than doubled. In the end, she spent almost 20 taels of silver to dig a well in the yard.

And these 20 taels are the prices 23 years ago, which are not the same.Yuan Bao understood. He looked at Xia's father and Xia's mother and asked, "Uncles and aunts, please tell yourselves in your conscience, how much did your family's dilapidated house rent for a year? Is it really worth five taels?"

Father Xia and Mother Xia didn't expect that one day they would be questioned aggressively by a little girl, and they suddenly felt uncomfortable.

The clay figurine was still earthy. Mother Xia immediately said: "The annual rent of five taels of silver was promised by her, not by us. This debt cannot be charged to us!"

"Okay, then I'll leave it at that. Go to the capital and ask in the surrounding villages whether you can rent a house like this for five taels a year, or as Xia Bao said for one year. Year twelve!"

Yuan Bao looked at Xia's father and Xia's mother sarcastically, pretending to be honest?She has seen a lot!

It can only be said that Xia's father and Xia's mother's heart is not rotten, but it is definitely black.

Xia's father and Xia's mother were self-aware and rented out the house. This house was definitely worthless.

"Sister-in-law Ying, the guests you take in are really sharp-tongued. Since you think this house is not worth it, we, the couple, can no longer rent it to you without conscience."

The smile on Xia's mother's face no longer felt guilty, replaced by a commercial fake smile that did not reach her eyes.

"My Tianbao is almost old and it's time to get a wife.

I heard that it is now fashionable for people in the city to live in separate houses after marriage. Tianbao is already talking about getting married. My daughter-in-law will definitely not want to live with the two elders after marriage.

Sister-in-law Ying, my house has to be taken back. Please look where there is a house for rent. I'm really sorry. "

Xia Bao's grandfather is the village chief of Kaoshan Village. After offending the Xia family, who in Kaoshan Village dares to rent a house to Mrs. Ying?

She wanted to see how confident Mrs. Ying could be. Would she dare to live in a completely unfamiliar place at such an old age? There were only two ways in front of her, either agree to increase the rent by ten taels a year, or get out. !
If you beat their Xia family's son, you must pay the price.

After Xia's mother said these words, Mrs. Ying's face was indeed moved.
