Chapter 428 It's Really Clean This Time

Green waves and fine shadows, green leaves and pink lotus, the light breeze blowing on the rippling lake surface, the spring color of this lake reflects the tall and tall Yue Huaiyi, Yuan Zhao looked at him, and the resentment in his heart seemed to disappear all of a sudden.

"Why...why are you here?"

Yue Huaiyi took two steps forward and stood by Yuan Zhao's side. He didn't know what mood he was in, but he was very happy to see Yuan Zhao.It's just that he has a few friends in the capital, and a few students he can get along with, but... But that feeling is different from Yuan Zhao's.He will not miss them, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and he talks about character and elegance.But... after not seeing each other for the past two months, he actually misses Yuan Zhao a little bit, and this kind of mood makes him faintly feel that there is nothing wrong with the two men.

Today, I just walked towards the lake, and I don't know what kind of mentality I have. Maybe deep down in my heart, I wanted to meet him, but I didn't expect to meet him, and I heard him scold him.With just such a sentence, such a lively Yuan Zhao leaned over involuntarily, as if the spring wind swept away the haze in his heart.

"Cheng Wei's house is nearby. I was recuperating at his house, and I felt bored and went out for a walk." Yue Huaiyi said softly, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

"By the way, is your injury serious?" Yuan Zhao asked hastily when he remembered this.

"It's not that bad. Cheng Wei made a fuss. He's been raised a long time ago. I've already decided that I'm going to move back here."

"Move back?" Yuan Zhao was immediately happy when he heard this sentence, "Why do you want to move back? Isn't it good to live in Cheng's house?"

Yue Huaiyi listened to Yuan Zhao's words, coughed lightly, and then said: "It's not convenient, I need a clean environment to study."

Yuan Zhao raised his eyebrows, isn't the Cheng family cleaner than the inn?Although he didn't say it outright, she understood it in her heart, and said straight away, "You didn't want the money we won in Biyun Lake last time, and I didn't think it was appropriate to collect it all by myself. After much deliberation, I simply divided it into two, you half and me half. I bought you a small house for your half, just convenient for you to study, this time it is really clean."

Yue Huaiyi froze for a moment, shook his head and was about to refuse, the money was said to be good, but in fact it was won by Yuan Zhao himself, and he was just helping a little, not contributing.

Seeing him shaking his head, Yuan Zhao became a little anxious, and said, "You are really stubborn. The next spring will be the spring, and other people's families are studying hard. It's better for you to care about me for these trivial matters. Besides, you don't have to pay for this money." If you feel uncomfortable, I will pay you back after you pass the exam, and then I will charge you double!"

Seeing that Yuan Zhao was really in a hurry, Yue Huaiyi felt embarrassed instead, and said with a sigh: "It's just that you don't get rewarded for nothing. Since you said that, if I decline again, it would really hurt my feelings. Then say that." It's settled, I'll pay you back when I have money. Well, double."

Yuan Zhao: ...

She doesn't need anyone to teach her what it feels like to hit the cotton with her fist, it's too annoying.

The two made an appointment to meet in three days, Yuan Zhao helped Yue Huaiyi move, and she left in a hurry.Instead of going back to the palace first, he went to Dingguo's mansion to find Dong Yingxi.

Dong Yingxi happened to be at home today, and when he heard Yuan Zhao came, he greeted him personally, "Why did you run out again, be careful to go back and be punished. You are sweating from running, so go in and rest your feet first."

Yuan Zhao dragged him not to go in, and entered a group of relatives in Duke Dingguo's mansion. It was not easy to get out, so he dragged Dong Yingxi out, and said in a low voice: "Big cousin, I need your help. The outside said, don't enter the house, I can't get out after I go in."

What she said was the same as Longtan and Tiger's Den. Dong Yingxi gave her a blank look, but what Yuan Zhao said was true. When she entered the door with such an identity, not the whole family would coax her and pet her, so she nodded and said, "Go, go quietly. My little study, just don’t startle people.”

Yuan Zhao nodded vigorously, and followed Dong Yingxi into his small study through the corner door.

It's not the first time Yuan Zhao has come to Duke Ding's mansion, and whoever the guard at the gate doesn't know will definitely pass on the word.It's just that the eldest princess didn't want to alarm anyone, so the people in the mansion pretended not to be alarmed and didn't know she was coming.Dong Yingxi specially sent a message to his mother, and the people behind him will be comforted by his mother.

Leading Yuan Zhao into the small study room, someone brought tea, and then asked: "It's rare that you came to see me, why are you so anxious?"

Before she told Yue Huaiyi that the house had been bought, she was talking nonsense, but when she heard that he was going to move out of Cheng Zhai, she suddenly thought that it would be good for him to have a place to stay, and she would come to him in the future. It's convenient, I don't dare to leave a message for myself after seeing him.In fact, to be honest, Yue Huaiyi should have a share of the money Doukou earns, and she can't force it to him if she doesn't want it, and now buying a house can be considered as a discount to him, which is just right.

As for the matter of repaying the money in the future, Yuan Zhao didn't take it seriously at all. Can she have a future after being favored by him?

Don't even think about drawing boundaries.

"Buy a house?" Dong Yingxi was really taken aback this time, "You want to buy it in such a hurry, it's not easy."

"If it's easy, I'll come to you?" Houses in the capital are the most difficult to buy and sell. There are more and more people, but fewer and fewer houses, especially Biyun Lake, which is not far from the imperial city, and the scenery is so beautiful. Well, the house is always owned by a family, unless the family has an urgent matter and needs to sell it, otherwise it is not easy to buy.It was just like this that Yuan Zhaocai came to Dong Yingxi. Dingguo's family had a great career, and it was very difficult to build a house for other people's houses, but his family was still very easy.

"It's not that it's difficult." Dong Yingxi smiled helplessly, "It's just that the house you want is too small. Our family doesn't have such a small house."

Yuan Zhao: ...

Seeing Yuan Zhao's stunned look, Dong Yingxi also shook his head, "We pay attention to appearance when we buy a house from such a family. You really don't have the small courtyard and three rooms you want. Why don't I give it to you?" How about finding a small house with two entrances? This is also the smallest."

"No." Yuan Zhao replied solemnly, "Back then, with the money Yue Huaiyi and I earned in Biyun Lake, we could only buy a small courtyard like this if you got a small house with two entrances. I won’t ask for it.” After speaking with a sigh, Yuan Zhao simply explained the matter.

"I'm not greedy, you're embarrassing me." Dong Yingxi frowned, and said to Yuan Zhao, "You sit here for a while, I'll go out for a while."

Knowing that he was going to ask about the house, Yuan Zhao quickly said: "I'm sorry, big cousin. When things are settled, I'll treat you to a drink."

"No, as long as the prince doesn't embarrass me."

"No, no, I'm with the prince's brother. I'm doing business here, and he won't say anything."

After Dong Yingxi left, Yuan Zhao picked up a book at random in his study.The arrangement in this study really doesn't have any soft atmosphere, it's exactly the same as his own prince's younger brother, doing things squarely.She couldn't find a comfortable soft couch, so she couldn't just sit on such a hard armchair and wait, right?
When Dong Yingxi came back, he was dumbfounded as soon as he walked into his study.He had only been out for more than an hour, so why did his study look like it had changed, the original room under the window was almost gone, replaced by a soft couch.Next to the soft couch is a low table with four corners cut out one foot square.The table was covered with embroidered brick-red brocade tablecloths, on which were placed three crystal plates the size of a fist, inside which were filled with fragrant snacks, persimmon rolls, glutinous rice cakes, emerald shrimp dumplings, and a fist-sized plate next to it. The jasper cup I took a closer look at is eight-treasure scented tea.

The honorable eldest princess was half lying on the soft couch reading a book, when she saw him coming back, she immediately sat up and complained: "Your room is really uncomfortable, I have no place to lie down, I want to If you want to sit comfortably, you can’t find the boundary. Do you think it’s much better if I do it this way? Later, when you’re tired, you can sit under the window to read a book and have a rest. Don’t you thank me?”

Who came to the study for business, and would not go back to his own room if he wanted to rest?

Dong Yingxi really didn't want to argue with the eldest princess about this, she is a master who cannot be wronged, so she cheered up and said: "The house has been found."

Yuan Zhao's other things were still in the back of his mind, and he just jumped up, "Really? Where is it, take me to see it, is it in the area of ​​Biyun Lake? The picture is a beautiful scenery, what do you want? It would be boring to get it to Xiaoshen Alley for me."

That's a lot to ask for.

"It's on the edge of Biyun Lake. According to what you said, there is a single-door courtyard. There are three main rooms, and the east wing can accommodate people. The original owner's house was used as a warehouse, but it's a little smaller. The west side is the kitchen, which is really too small. There is no upside down. But it is enough for one person to live in.”

Yuan Zhao had already drawn a rough outline with a brush after listening to it. Dong Yingxi admired Yuan Zhao's exactness in his drawing.Yuan Zhao's attainments in calligraphy and painting are indeed much better than him, and his majesty has taught him, which is a real talent.Thinking of this, I pointed to a few places on the map and said briefly, "The original owner's house was a family of five. The family left by the ancestors from generation to generation was a small family doing morning market business, so there is no I bought a big house with the extra money. It’s really crowded here with five people, so I exchanged it for you with a second-class house. The neighbors around are ordinary people, and they are easy to get along with because there are many people living in the house. So there are a lot of things inside, and it will take some time to move it out. I have sent someone to help, and it will be vacated tomorrow morning."

It's not good that the house that someone else lived in still has the original atmosphere. Yuan Zhao wants to give this house a good look.Since the house was being moved over there, it must be dirty and messy, so she didn't go to look at it, and said directly to Dong Yingxi: "Then you are at a disadvantage, Er Jin's house was changed to this one."

"It's not a disadvantage. The house of the second entrant is a little far away from Biyun Lake, and the location is a bit off. But the common people have more children, and they still like a bigger place, so their family agreed without hesitation. This is the house deed. According to what you said, it is Yue Huaiyi's name."

It was the first time Yuan Zhao saw such a thing as a house deed. He took a fresh look at it, and then put it away, "Thank you, big cousin. When you marry your sister-in-law later, I will stop making trouble with your bridal chamber and let you go." One horse."

Dong Yingxi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's really thanks to the eldest princess for showing her such a noble hand."

"Your own person, don't be shy."

Dong Yingxi: ...

Yuan Zhao calmed down, and began to talk about how to clean up the house, which was actually a bit difficult.Because Yue Huaiyi doesn't like to take advantage, so you can't use expensive furniture, you can only go in the direction of cheap and elegant. Girls have great control over these things. Dong Yingxi is writing at the side, and Yuan Zhao says what he says. Remember what, writing that he has been unable to complain.

The time is short, the construction period is urgent, the requirements are still high, and he is very tired. In fact, he shouldn't take a rest today.

Yuan Zhao didn't hide anything from the queen. The queen actually didn't agree with it, but she didn't want to see her daughter sad, so she could only tell her son to eat more snacks.Whose daughter is not pregnant, this is the first time for her daughter to like someone like this, no matter what the result is, she doesn't want her to leave regrets.This is probably in this time and space, only royal princesses can have such willfulness.

Ji Qiyu was slightly silent when he heard Huiyu's words, his face turned dark, but he didn't agree with it.The daughter I held in my hand would go to such lengths for a strange man, she was just like an old mother, and I was so mad at him.

The future son-in-law hasn't met yet, so the father-in-law will make an account for him first.

On the day of moving, Yuan Zhao specially called Ji Xiucheng and Tong Qi, who had met Yue Huaiyi, to go with him. After all, it is not good for a lonely man and a widow to be alone, and she still understands this.Ji Xiucheng was dumbfounded when he heard the news, why is it only a few days before the house is bought and they are going to move?
When he got to the place where he was meeting with Yuan Zhao, before he could ask a question or two, Tong Qi also arrived over there. Yuan Zhao waved to the two of them and said, "Let's go, I don't want you to be bad today. Interested, have you bought the firecrackers? Have you booked the banquet? Moving is a festive event, so it should be lively."

Dong Yingxi, who was not invited, was very depressed. He was the one who ran the errands, the one who did the work, and the one who paid the money. As a result, when it came time to celebrate and eat and drink, he had nothing to do with him.

Seriously unbalanced psychologically, he decided to encourage the prince to go to Weifu for a private visit, to see what is so good about the Yue, and Yuan Zhao actually took so much trouble for him.

The crown prince was just released by the emperor, and the general idea was to make him keep an eye on his sister. Here, Dong Yingxi explained the reason for his visit, and he thought it was a good idea.It's a mule or a horse, so you have to pull it out for a walk.What is the character of this surnamed Yue? You can't just listen to others, you have to see it yourself. Choosing a day is worse than hitting the sun. Since it is a festive day, let's give my sister a show.

Yuan Zhao didn't expect that the prince could support him personally, so she was really dumbfounded when she saw Yue Huaiyi before seeing the prince.

"Why are you here?" Then he stared at Dong Yingxi, it must be the ghost of the big cousin.

The prince didn't seem to see Yuan Zhao's sharp eyes, and said unhurriedly: "I'm curious, the master who can make you worry about your troubles, even your cousin will follow you."

When people come, they will definitely not be able to drive them away. She also knows the bad temper of the prince's younger brother.

Ji Xiucheng and Tong Qi didn't speak at the side, Tong Qi was so frightened that he shuddered when he saw the prince.Ji Xiucheng wanted to watch the excitement, so he folded his arms around his chest and said nothing.Dong Yingxi walked up to him, and bumped him with an elbow, "You will take advantage of it." Zhaizi didn't work hard, but he ran fast after eating and drinking.

Knowing what Dong Yingxi was depressed about, he smiled wickedly, "That's no way, I'm not capable of conjuring a house for Her Royal Highness in the blink of an eye here at Biyun Lake."

"How can the dignified prince of Chun's mansion have no private property? Do I know who owns the two big houses that are connected in the alley that is two streets away from the small house."

Ji Xiucheng glanced at Dong Yingxi, damn, we all know this, "Are you dog-nosed?"

"Someone is dishonest, there is no way."

"Come on, I won't be sour here. What's wrong with that house being mine? Yuan Zhao didn't look for me, because he knew I didn't have money like you. Eating meat is naturally picking up the fat and biting it. tooth."

Tong Qi listened to the two of them coming and going from behind, but he thought in his heart that Prince Jin actually still has private money, and he doesn't even have any private money!

"You are not allowed to bully people, don't say bad words, don't scare people." Yuan Zhao didn't care about Ji Xiucheng's slobbering lawsuit with Dong Yingxi, and kept telling the prince to keep his poisonous tongue, really worried to death.

The prince didn't nod his head in agreement, but said solemnly: "If you can't bear even a little grievance because of you, how can such a person be qualified to be my brother-in-law, don't even think about it."

"It's the first time we meet, don't you know how to show mercy?"

"It's really embarrassing for our eldest princess to know how to save face."

"Ji Guangyu!"

"No negotiation!"

Yuan Zhao was about to die of anger, she only hoped that today would be safe and sound.
