When I got home and sat down, Yingpan looked around, reluctantly looking at the study in front of me.
Ren Ning sat down next to her, "Aren't you willing to give up?"
Yingpan rolled her eyes.
This general's mansion was the place where she got married. Every plant, tree, vase, and object in it were carefully planted or selected by her.
It took several years of hard work to get it to what it is now.
Originally living a good life, but suddenly having to move, Yingpan was naturally not happy.
"But if my husband decides to move, then I will move."
"A place without you is just an empty house. A place with you is home wherever I go."
Ren Ning nodded, "I'm really wronging you."
"Her Royal Highness the Princess will not let us move without any reason. Since she said so, there must be a reason why we must move."
Yingpan nodded, "I think so too."
It's just that there are a lot of people in Jiangjun's Mansion now. If you want to move to Guangxin, you must at least find a big house in Nanshu City or have one built.
Yingpan glanced at her husband strangely, "How about I go find Sister Li and come over to discuss it?"
Ren Ning smiled and shook his head: "Tomorrow. Isn't Li Hezhu at Uncle Zhongyong's house? Tomorrow is considered a New Year's greeting."
It's a pity that Ren Ning can't go there.
Zhongyongbo's Mansion is not like the iron-barrel Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
If Xiao Gang's sick eldest brother Xiao Rui knew that Ren Ning had not been summoned back to the capital, he would definitely find a way to report it to Emperor Changxing or the Ministry of War. By then, everyone would have nothing to eat and just walk around.
Yingpan also understood this and couldn't help snorting coldly, "Xiao Rui is just shameless."
A few years ago, Uncle Zhongyong's house was in such poverty that he even had to sell his farm shop to maintain the expenses of the house and the Xiao family.
While many businesses in the uncle's house either lost money or broke up and changed owners, it can be said that only the Gu family caravan can make some money.
Later, during the Dragon Boat Festival competition, Xiao Rui's maternal grandfather, Yongchang Houfu, even forcibly paid 300,000 taels of silver in cash. As a result, money became tight and he could no longer support his grandson's expenses.
In recent years, because of Xiao Gang, Uncle Zhongyong got involved in the rubber business in the south, and then married his cousin who was his childhood sweetheart in Sulan County.
Now, Uncle Zhongyong's mansion has finally calmed down.
Whether it was rubber or Su Lan's money, it had nothing to do with Xiao Rui, but since he had the title of heir apparent, he spent the money confidently.
His maternal grandfather, Marquis Yongchang, was always looking for miracle cures and medicines, and no matter how much money he spent, he would try to buy them or buy them for his grandson, hoping that they could cure Xiao Rui.
From then on, he took over the rubber business of Zhongyongbo Mansion and the Gu family caravan, which was about to become a large caravan.
Ren Ning's face looked very ugly.
He had been in Xiliang for many years, and Xiao Gang didn't say anything when he came back.
If Yingpan hadn't mentioned it now, he really wouldn't have known this.
"I will talk to Xiao Gang and let him find a way to separate the family."
It's just a run-down uncle's house, the worst thing is not to use it.
Just let Xiao Shui, a sick man, carry it, so as not to have the huge Xiao family members behind him lying on his body to suck blood.
Yingpan looked hesitant, "Xiao Gang probably can't let go of Uncle Zhongyong's house..."
Just as he was talking, a message came from outside the door.
"Madam, the Second Young Master Xiao of Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion and Miss Li of General Guangxin's Mansion have come to pay you New Year's greetings. They are currently in the flower hall."
Ren Ning and Yingpan looked at each other.
What a coincidence, it really means Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
Flower Hall.
Xiao Gang was beaming with joy.
Li Hezhu also lived in this general's mansion for a long time, and instead of being a guest, he came to entertain Xiao Gang.
The two of them walked in.
Ren Ning smiled: "As soon as I told you, you came. Could it be that my little nephew was born?"
Xiao Gang grinned almost to the back of his head, "The midwife said it will take another two or three days. I will come over quickly to give you New Year's greetings, General. Then..."
Then wait for the baby to be born at home.
Ren Ning nodded, "How many times have I told you what kind of army you are? Now you are at home, not in the army, so don't be so blunt."
Xiao Gang scratched his head in laughter, "I'm used to it."
The four of them were all good friends, so they chatted casually.
Ren Ning was not going to hide it from them, "Miss Li, we intend to move to Guangxin as soon as possible. You are familiar with Nanshu City. Do you know any houses for sale?"
This news was a bit violent, and Li Hezhu and Xiao Gang were stunned. For a moment, they thought they had heard wrong.
"Why did you move to Guangxin for no reason?" Xiao Gang was the first to speak out.
Their two families are separated by a wall, so it's very convenient for them to visit each other.
If you want to go through the front door, just go through the front door. If you don't want to go through the front door, just go over the wall.
Li Hezhu thought wrongly, her face turned a little red, and she looked at Yingpan evasively.
Ren Fei spread his hands and said, "I don't want to move either. But this is actually what Princess Yiguang wants."
Xiao Gang and Li Hezhu's expressions suddenly changed, and their hearts beat rapidly.
Ren Ning is one of the eight generals of the Starfall Legion, what does this mean?
The two of them looked at Ren Ning and his wife, then looked towards the entrance of the alley, opened their mouths, but did not dare to ask.
After a long while, Xiao Gang said, "Do you need any help from me, Old Ren? If you want, just ask."
Ren Ning smiled and shook his head, "We, from a small family, can go wherever we want. It might be better if the uncle's house doesn't take action."
Xiao Gang nodded.
This is true.
In his family, there is also Xiao Rui, who is arrogant and arrogant.
If he knew that Ren Ning had left Star City with his family, he would still have to make some noise.
It would be bad if it finally falls into the ears of someone with a heart.
Li Hezhu thought about it carefully and soon became embarrassed.
"Ren Ning still has Panpan. Nanshu City is just a remote town. There is absolutely no house of the size of yours."
Yingpan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's smaller or simpler. We'll live there for now. Then we'll just buy the whole place and expand it."
Besides, no matter how small or crude a house is, it is still a house. Can it be as small and crude as the tents of the Kailun tribe?
"This is easy to handle." Li Hezhu breathed a sigh of relief.
She glanced at Xiao Gang and said, "When your child is over one month old, I will immediately go south and return to Guangxin. I will look for a house for Panpan."
Xiao Gang pondered, then shook his head.
"Although I don't understand what happened, the words of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess must not be taken lightly. Forget about my child's full moon wine. If you are willing, just send a gift to the child every year on his birthday."
"It's better to go back and find a good house for Lao Ren and Yingpan first, and let them move quickly."
Li Hezhu nodded, intending to let Yingpan live in his house first, but he quickly stopped talking.
Ren Ning's Xuanwu General's Mansion now only has ten or eight people, including many veterans of the Starfall Legion.
It's not suitable to live in her house.
"Do you want to take the plaque on the gate to the south?" Xiao Gang suddenly said.
Ren Ning smiled and shook his head, "Of course not."
This will still be his home, but the owner has moved to the south. Maybe he will come back in the future.
"What, you want to buy this house back?"
Xiao Gang smiled and nodded.
He was very frank, "Of course."
This house was originally part of his ancestors. However, since he was demoted and could no longer live in such a large house, it was separated from him. Finally, it fell into the hands of Ren Ning.
Since there was Xiao Shu in Uncle Zhongyong's house, he asked his wife to move here so that it would be quieter.
It's a pity that Ren Ning doesn't plan to sell it.
Ren Ning nodded and glanced at Yingpan.
Sure enough, Yingpan could see clearly,
Xiao Gang still cared about the honor of his ancestors, so it was almost impossible for him to separate his family and sever his relationship with Uncle Zhongyong.
