Chapter 1998 Suspicion has penetrated into ancient times
Chapter 1999 It’s better to rely on others than to rely on yourself
However, if people can be bought and sold, Mengyu doesn't have the idea to change the world.
Moreover, she has just fallen into this alien space and does not trust the people around her. If she can buy a few servants, she can have someone to take care of her after giving birth to a child.
After all, this is not the modern era she lives in. There are apprentices available and military wives helping each other.
Gu Dongxing also thought of this and said: "Let's take a look at the yard first, and then ask the town official to take us to buy a few servants. If we are satisfied, we will definitely pay the servant fee."
He had already seen that Duke Qi Zhen was greedy for money, so he simply lured him with money.
The smile on Qi Zhengong's face became more sincere: "Okay, let's go and take a look first, only if we are satisfied."
Just to apply for the household registration, I gave him ten taels of silver, and he took it to buy a house and a new wife. Although he was a little involved, with the generosity of these two people, he would definitely benefit from it.
Duke Qi Zhen took Mengyu and others to see the small courtyard first.
The yard is not big, with three main rooms and two side rooms, a total of five rooms. But it is very clean and tidy. The owner is a middle-aged woman. It is said that her son left here and is planning to sell the house and return to her hometown in the countryside.
Mengyu just looked around, without even asking the price, Gu Dongxing took her away.
She knew that Gu Dongxing must have noticed something, so she followed Gu Dongxing without asking any questions.
As soon as he walked out of the yard, Gu Dongxing asked Qi Zhengong: "Does Qi Zhengong sympathize with that woman?"
Qi Zhengong's eyes were a little dodgey: "Why do you say that?"
Gu Dongxing sighed: "You said her son is gone, he must be dead, right?"
Qi Zhengong was a little embarrassed: "Yes, her son died, her daughter-in-law remarried, and she was left alone. She wanted to sell the yard and go back to her hometown with her nephew. But no one in the town wanted to buy her house, so I didn't want to buy her house.
I sympathize with her and I'm sorry."
When Gu Dongxing heard Qi Zhengong's apology, he snorted: "I hope this won't happen again in the next family."
The town official said quickly: "No more."
Mengyu somewhat admired Gu Dongxing. She used to rely on her spiritual sense for observation. Without her spiritual sense, she was like a blind person and could not see anything clearly. However, Gu Dongxing relied on his pair of naked eyes to see through the phenomenon and the essence.
The gap between her and Gu Dongxing is extraordinary.
Hearing the middle-aged woman say that she would go back and rely on her nephew, and then seeing that the middle-aged woman chased her out, but stopped after hearing Gu Dongxing's words, Mengyu suddenly interrupted:
"It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. Not to mention a nephew, even a biological son can sometimes be unreliable. If she really sells the yard to rely on her nephew, it will be okay when the money is in hand. But if the money is not in hand, I'm afraid she will
Life will be hard.
Instead of selling the yard to follow her nephew, it is better to keep the yard and rent it out, and live with her nephew by herself. With the rent in hand, she is not afraid of her nephew’s wife saying that she is eating theirs. Anyway, the yard is in her name, and no one can take it.
Go, wait until a hundred years later, when your nephew is good to you, and then give him the yard, that is the best plan."
Mengyu said these words crisply and loudly. Needless to say, the middle-aged woman in the yard must have heard it.
The woman couldn't help but feel shocked, yes, is it really reliable to sell the yard and rely on her nephew?
The idea of selling the yard came from my nephew. If she really sold the yard and went to his house, one day she said she was short of money to buy food, and the next day she said she was short of money to buy clothes, and then she was defrauded of all the money in her hands, would she
Drive her away?
Thinking of this, she immediately chased her out and said to the town official: "Townshipman, please go slowly. I want to withdraw the registration for selling the house and change it to the registration for renting."
Qi Zhengong glared at Mengyu: "Are you making trouble?"
