The house Tangning chose was not far from the Zhongfu and the county government office.
The two-in-one courtyard was still a bit big for Su Ru to live alone. Tang Ning actually wanted her third uncle and third aunt to move to the city and live with her.
Firstly, it was to take care of each other, and secondly, because over the years, if it weren't for their help, he and Xiaoru would have had a much harder time, and now it was time to repay them.
"Brother Xiao Ning, this, this can't be done..." After knowing Tang Ning's thoughts, Su Ru became a little anxious and said, "I, I just live in the village. Where did you get so much money..."
Tangning shook her head and said, "Don't worry about this..."
"Brother Xiao Ning!" Su Ru stamped her feet, tears flashing in her eyes.
Tang Ning knew that although she was weak-tempered, she also had her own perseverance. He looked at Tang Yaoyao who came out of the Zhong Mansion and said, "The money to buy the house was borrowed from this Miss Tang, and I will pay it back to her in the future."
of."
Tang Ning looked at Tang Yaoyao and asked, "Did you bring the IOU?"
Tang Yaoyao nodded and took out a note from his sleeve.
Tang Ning glanced at Tang Yaoyao twice. She actually carried the IOU with her?
Two days ago, she said that if it was not enough, she would ask her to borrow it again, and there would be no need to pay it back...
Although Su Ru has never read a book and does not know many words, she can still understand these simple sentences.
The anxious look on her face eased slightly. She looked at Tang Ning, shook her head and said, "Brother Ning, let's not waste this money..."
"Be obedient." Tangning looked at her with a straight face and said, "It's convenient for me to take care of you when you move to the city. The most we can do is work together to pay back the money."
Su Ru looked at Tang Ning. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said, "Then let's do it together..."
Tang Ning returned the IOU to Tang Yaoyao, and she ran away quickly.
She always felt guilty in front of Su Ru.
With Peng Chen here, pulling on his father-in-law's tiger skin, although all the procedures for buying a house are red flags, the steps are indispensable. Peng Chen asked people to make arrangements, and Tang Ning took Su Ru back to Zhong Mansion first.
Qing'er was putting thin slices of cucumber on her face. Not only her, but also the maids of the Zhong Mansion had several slices of cucumber in their hands.
Not to mention Su Ru, even Tangning was shocked.
Su Shan's face was full of surprise. It turns out that this is the life of a wealthy family. They don't eat cucumbers, but they waste it like this...
Chen Yuxian came out and saw Su Ru. After being stunned, he immediately walked forward and said happily: "Miss Xiao Ru is here, have you had dinner..."
Su Shan rubbed his belly and said, "Not yet."
Su Ru was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Third uncle..."
"We are all one family, no need to see anyone outside." Chen Yuxian smiled and said, "Qing'er, go tell the kitchen to make some more food and deliver it over as soon as possible..."
Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, her mother-in-law and Zhong Yi were more normal, unlike those maids who had never seen the world and resisted the temptation to fight wrinkles and whiten their skin.
Chen Yuxian walked into the room, turned around and said to Qing'er: "By the way, tell them that there is no need to bring the sliced cucumbers..."
…
Da Huan Dan is really a good thing. Su Ru's complexion is obviously much better than yesterday.
Her mother-in-law was even more enthusiastic towards her than she was towards Tang Ning. She invited her several times to simply move to the Zhong Mansion, but she politely refused.
She held Su Ru's hand and said, "If you encounter any difficulties here from now on, just tell your aunt and never see anyone outside..."
Su Ru nodded and said, "Auntie, I understand."
They moved as soon as they were told. Tangning was worried that if she didn't move today, she would come here again like this tomorrow.
Peng Chen drove a carriage himself, found two servants from the Yamen, found another carriage, left the city and went straight to Sujia Village.
They didn't have much to move, and the reason they used two carriages was because the other carriage was filled with gifts.
Sujia Village is not big, with only about twenty households in total.
Of the money she borrowed from Tang Yaoyao, she probably spent more than half of it on buying a house. It wouldn't take much to buy furniture afterwards. Tang Ning spent about twenty taels on preparing gifts for every household in Sujia Village.
Most of them are rice, flour, grain, oil, cloth, etc., and two whole fans of pork.
The villagers have simple hearts. Over the years, the two of them have received many favors from others. These are just small gifts of thanks.
Sujia Village is not big. From the east end of the village to the west end, just one shout is enough.
"Go to Su Shan's house to get rice, noodles and meat!"
After the head of the village gave an energetic shout, the whole village immediately began to boil in a short period of time.
The third aunt looked distressed and muttered: "Why are you giving away things for no reason?"
"Neighbors help each other, isn't it great..." Su Shan has seen the generosity of wealthy families today. Although two slices of pork and a lot of rice and noodles will soon be gone, he feels distressed.
In front of you, you still have to show some familiarity with the world.
"To help each other?" Third Aunt Zhao looked at him and asked, "Then tell me, why are Widow Qi and you helping each other? You can just give it to others, so what are you giving it to her?"
"Xiao Ning said this." Su Shan said seriously, "I didn't say it."
Mrs. Zhao finally calmed down and asked, "How much did it cost to buy these things?"
Su Shan scratched his head and said, "About twenty taels..."
Zhao's chest began to feel uneasy again.
She picked up the broom at hand and whipped it towards Su Shan's body. While whipping, she cursed: "Are you stupid? Xiao Ning is fooling around, and you are also fooling around. Do you know how much twenty taels of silver is?"
Xiaoru Zhibo and I can't make twenty taels a year from weaving..."
Tangning finally squeezed her way out of a group of enthusiastic villagers, walked up to the two of them, and said, "Third uncle, third aunt, you and Xiaoru should also move to the city."
Su Shan opened his mouth and said in surprise: "Are we moving too?"
Tangning nodded and said, "Xiao Ru usually lives alone in that house, so I'm a little uneasy..."
Su Shan hesitated: "But what to do with the land at home..."
Mrs. Zhao raised her broom again and said angrily: "You worthless person, you are still thinking about those two pieces of land. For those two pieces of land, you work to death every year. In the end, we can't even have enough to eat."
, when you get to Zhoucheng, anything you do is better than farming..."
Under the "consolation" of the third aunt, the third uncle soon agreed to move to the city together.
Today I just simply moved things, and then there are trivial things like buying furniture, so there is no need to worry so much.
The courtyard has two entrances. Su Ru lives in the inner courtyard, and the third uncle and the third aunt chose a house in the outer courtyard. The inner courtyard and the outer courtyard are separated by a partition wall.
The sky had darkened. Tangning walked to the yard and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first. It's been a tiring day today. You guys should rest early. I'll come back tomorrow."
The third uncle no longer felt sorry for his two pieces of land. He walked to the yard and asked in disbelief: "Are we going to live here from now on?"
Tangning smiled and waved, "See you tomorrow."
Su Ru sent him outside and said, "It's a little dark, Brother Ning, please walk slowly."
Tangning turned around and said with a smile: "It's just a few steps away, it doesn't matter, you can go back quickly..."
When Su Ru walked back to the yard, the third aunt came over, looked at her, and asked hesitantly: "Xiao Ru, although you two have no engagement, everyone has known since you were children that Xiao Ning will marry you in the future. Now
…”
Su Ru shook her head and said: "I have already asked about it. Sister Zhong was forced to marry by the governor who had done all kinds of evil. If it hadn't happened to hit Brother Xiao Ning, her life would have been ruined. If Brother Xiao Ning were here,
If you leave her at this time, wouldn't you be pushing her into the pit of fire with your own hands?"
The third aunt sighed, "But you..."
"I'm fine..." Su Ru breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I'm very happy to see Brother Xiao Ning every day and know that he's fine..."
