Chapter 59 Hard to find
Wang Zhuangzhi wiped the sweat from his forehead, took the water Qiu Sheng handed him and drank two sips. He took a breath and said, "I have traveled a lot. There is a yard, but it is far from our place. We will farm and harvest in the future."
It’s inconvenient to make a trip in autumn.”
Upon hearing this, the family's high mood suddenly dropped.
Erya looked at her parents with a disappointed face, pursed her lips and asked in a low voice: "Mom and dad, do you want to stop buying it?"
Jiaojiao hugged Maoer and looked at her parents eagerly. Finally, her mother agreed. It would be a pity to let it go like this.
Wang Zhuangzhi looked at the children's expectant eyes, sighed helplessly and said: "It's not that I don't want to buy it, it's that I couldn't find the right one at once."
"We are located in the north and in a small village. The courtyards I asked about are not expensive. Some courtyards only cost 200 taels, which is enough to accommodate our whole family."
After speaking, Wang Zhuangzhi paused for a moment, then continued: "There is a closer courtyard, across a village from ours. The owner's family moved away more than ten years ago, and the weeds spreading in the courtyard look very desolate. In addition,
The owner of a yard wants to sell it. The square house in the yard is very elegant, but the road there is not smooth, and there are rocks on the road, which is not safe. In short, each has its own pros and cons."
After saying that, Wang Zhuangzhi sighed. Originally, he went out excitedly and was sure to find it, but every place was not as good as the next. In the end, he was tired and couldn't find the right one.
"Oh~ what's the matter?"
Liu Zhihua slapped her legs with a sigh on her face. Looking at the boss's appearance, she knew that this was going to be difficult. She originally thought that she would not have to worry about buying a place now that she had money, but she didn't expect that she couldn't even select a place.
"Brother, your bamboo dragonfly can't fly." Xiao Li held up the dragonfly and whispered.
Qiu Sheng handed the toy in his hand to Xiao Li, touched his head and comforted him. Seeing that everyone was frowning, he pursed his lips and spoke to comfort:
"Mom and Dad, buying a house is something that requires a long time of thought. You can't make the final decision in the morning. There's no need to rush. Take your time. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Maybe you can do it in a few days.
to the right one."
Jiaojiao felt that her elder brother was right, and Jiaonuo's voice was full of determination: "Mom and dad, let's search slowly, and we will eventually find a suitable yard."
Erya also hurriedly agreed: "That's right, maybe the place where dad fell is suitable. After lunch, I will go out to ask."
Everyone was making noise, and Bai Miaomiao in Jiaojiao's arms was awakened.
Bai Miaomiao half-closed his eyes, wagging his tail leisurely like an old man, and said slowly: "Isn't it just to find a yard? What's so difficult about it?"
Upon hearing this, Jiaojiao touched Meow Meow's soft fur with her little hand, then held its little paw and squeezed it gently, indicating for him to continue.
The white meow spread its limbs and stretched, changed into a comfortable position, and said lazily: "Based on the experience of following many owners of this meow, your place has lush vegetation, mountains and water, and it is rare to have sufficient sunshine.
In this geomantic treasure land, some wealthy businessmen and officials have been designated to build private estates here. Don’t worry, Jiaojiao, I will go out and look for you later.”
Jiaojiao smiled happily, hugged the cat, rubbed her cheek, and praised in a low voice: "Meow meow is so awesome."
Bai Miaomiao, who was originally sleepy, was shocked by Jiaojiao's move. While clawing at Jiaojiao, he stammered: "No, Jiaojiao, you are a girl, and I am a serious male."
Cat, you, I will be shy if you act like this.”
Jiaojiao was amused, and before she had time to answer, she stretched out a hand from the side and lifted Bai Miaomiao away from her arms.
Jiaojiao raised her head in confusion and realized it was Mother, "Mother?"
Liu Zhihua wiped Jiaojiao's face with a handkerchief and coaxed softly: "Be obedient, dear. Don't play with kittens like this. Cats and dogs are covered in fleas and dirt. If you don't pay attention, you will get sick."
The white meow that was thrown aside on the mat had stars on its head.
Damn it, this family is really fed up, they are throwing it around and treating it like weeds!
Huh~ If Jiaojiao hadn't been here, he wouldn't have come.
Jiaojiao pursed her lips, went over to hold Bai Miaomiao in her arms, and touched its head soothingly. Her big black eyes were full of seriousness and explained to her mother: "Mom, Jiaojiao will also wash Miaomiao when she washes.
No fleas."
After a pause, Jiaojiao whispered softly: "Miaomiao is my friend. Mom can't do this to me in the future."
Liu Zhihua choked, with a look of helplessness on her face and the head of the house turned back and sighed: "Look at your little girl, she is closer to the cat than to her mother. She can't help her when she is older."
Wang Zhuangzhi glanced at the little kitten in his daughter's arms. It could be held with two palms. It was all white and clean. He smiled heartily and said: "What's so dangerous about such a little thing? Jiaojiao likes it, so she lets her
Play."
"Look at what you are capable of. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. Jiaojiao's delicate body can't tolerate any mistakes. If you feel sorry for me, baby, you can give the cat a bath in the future."
After saying that, Liu Zhihua glared at the head of the house speechlessly, refusing to let her step down any steps in front of the child.
Wang Zhuangzhi choked, and the palms and backs of his hands were all flesh. He couldn't afford to offend anyone.
He had a soft smile on his rough face, but he walked over and picked up his daughter in a rare way. He wiped the back of his hands vigorously behind his back, then took his daughter's soft little fleshy hand and touched it, coaxing him and asking:
"Baby, do you like this cat?"
"Yes, I like it." Jiaojiao nodded obediently.
"Then does Jiaojiao know how to write about kittens? Is it written in the booklet your elder brother gave you?" Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and changed the subject.
Jiaojiao tilted her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head decisively and said, "No."
"Your eldest brother is back. The word kitten will definitely not trouble us Jiaojiao."
After Wang Zhuangzhi coaxed him to finish, he turned around and waved to Qiusheng and said, "Qiusheng, Jiaojiao has memorized all the booklets you gave me."
Qiu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then saw his father winking. He hurriedly stepped forward to take his sister from his arms, and said with a smile: "Dad, I will take my sister back to the house to take the test. If Jiaojiao is so smart, she must be able to do everything."
With that said, Qiu Sheng hugged Jiaojiao and went out, and Erya and Xiaoli naturally followed.
The couple were the only two people left in the room. Liu Zhihua snorted deliberately, glanced at the head of the house and asked: "Why send all the children out?"
Wang Zhuangzhi stood up and closed the door, then walked over and sat down, looked at his wife and said seriously: "Zhihua, there is one more thing I didn't tell you. I met Ying Niang on the trail this morning."
When Liu Zhihua heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "We have seen Yingniang in the town. Yingniang told me that she came back to visit relatives. What's there to say?"
Wang Zhuangzhi looked a little tangled and said in a low voice: "That's not what I'm talking about. I saw Ying Niang riding in a carriage with a man in rich clothes. I accidentally glanced at her when I was in the carriage. She never saw me.
."
Liu Zhihua frowned and retorted subconsciously: "Perhaps I was hitching a ride. How could Yingniang be what you think? I know Yingniang best. She is a virtuous and kind-hearted person. I don't trust anyone.
