The house is not big, it is a small courtyard with two entrances, much smaller than the farmyard where the Bai family lives now.
However, the layout of the yard and building materials are good, and the items in the house are all available, so you can move in with your bags.
There is also a small garden in the backyard, as well as a swing frame and two plum trees, which makes it look a bit like a city dweller.
The whole family knew that the price of houses in the county was different from that in the village, and the key was that it was not easy to buy. After seeing this small courtyard, they all expressed satisfaction, so Bai Ling took the initiative to buy the house, and it was naturally under Bai Xiaoshan's name.
Then I went to see the shop with a yard. The place was not big, the shop floor was only about 20 square meters, and there were five rooms in the backyard, plus a kitchen and a warehouse.
"Third sister, the second sister of this shop gave it to you. Just treat it as adding makeup to you in advance, okay?" Bai Ling looked at Bai Wei and asked.
Although the shop is not big, it is in the county town after all, and there is a yard behind it, so it is easy to rent. You can still rent it for dozens of taels of silver a year.
After all, the Bai sisters and Bai Cao were divorced, so getting married is not that easy.
Bai Ling has modern ideas and will never marry early.
Bai Wei, on the other hand, is already old enough to be married, so it's time to start preparing the dowry.
"This is what the second sister said. You can't go back on it." As a money lover, Bai Wei was happy to accept this gift. She immediately ran to Bai Ling and shook her arm.
With Bai Wei's financial resources, it is not difficult to buy a shop, but she is reluctant to spend money!
In addition, it is harder to buy a shop than a house. Bai Wei regretted that she had not brought enough money and was thinking about looking for opportunities to buy some properties in her name in the future.
"It's fine if you don't regret it. This time I met the shop and gave you makeup in advance. Next time I meet the shop, I should give it to the eldest sister and the younger sister. If I meet Zhuangzi for sale, I will naturally have to prepare some more for the younger brother.
If he really becomes an official in the future, and there is no shortage of money, there will be no need to worry about him becoming a corrupt official."
Bai Ling had always had a plan in mind. Anyway, she had several properties under her name and a lot of money, so she was naturally happy to be generous to her family.
"No regrets, no regrets." Bai Wei waved her hands repeatedly.
Everyone in the family has income, and no one is short of money, but it is rare for sisters to give such a heavy gift to each other. After all, Bai Ling is also getting married.
However, Bai Wei is also very grateful to Bai Ling. She has saved so many jewelry now, but they were all given by Bai Ling. Those things alone can make her get married in style.
"How can I ask you, my sister, to give you a dowry? When I get back, my mother will give you the money." Bai Liu frowned.
"Mom, please don't say this again. I am the most profitable little expert in our family. I spend money on my brothers and sisters. I am happy in my heart. Mom can fulfill my love and brotherly love."
Holding Bai Liu's arm, Bai Ling said with a smile:
"Besides, I have always been broke. If I become poor one day in the future, my brothers and sisters will still ignore me because of our past friendship."
The Bai family has always treated their children equally. Bai Ling is very grateful to his parents for their open-mindedness and is naturally willing to share more with them.
Bai Cao's misfortune has always made the couple feel guilty, so Bai Ling thought about doing more for the sisters so that his parents could let go of what happened back then.
"You girl, you know how to talk nonsense."
Knowing that Bai Ling said this deliberately, Bai Liu didn't feel comfortable saying anything else, so she said:
"You two are doing well, and my mother is satisfied. That's all. You can do whatever you like, but my mother can't control you."
The sisters laughed and joked, then bought the shop.
Li Fa was always by his side, so he could tell what Bai Ling meant. He would have to take care of his business in the future, so his attitude became a little warmer.
After returning to Yahang, Bai Sanshu and his son also came back, and they were also very satisfied with Zhuangzi.
Bai Ling paid the money without saying a word and waited until the next day to get the title deed.
Before leaving, Li Fa also stated that if there is a shop in a good location in the future, he would give priority to introducing it to the Bai family, which certainly won Bai Ling's praise.
"The shop will expire in one month. We don't come to the county often, and we don't plan to do any business for the time being, so we will keep it here for rent. Then the rent and the contract will be sent to the house."
Bai Ling was determined to build a good relationship with the dental shop, so he was not stingy about spending some money on the favor, and it would also save his family trouble.
Thinking that there was no one in the house, and that his servants were not enough to use when he was busy, so he couldn't stay, so he said again:
"The house still needs a cleaning woman, an old man as a janitor, and preferably a boy who can drive a car and run errands. His age is easy to say. The main thing is that he has good eyesight. Uncle Li has the right person.
Just introduce me."
"Of course there is, and we are still a family, even with a five-year-old boy. Speaking of which, this family is also kind. In order to treat their daughter-in-law, they sold out all the family property, and in the end no one was left.
Later, when a plague broke out in my hometown, I thought of coming to the north to visit relatives, but I got sick again on the way, so in order to survive, my whole family sold themselves into slavery."
When Li Fa spoke, he glanced towards the Bailiu family, hoping that the family could be bought away so that they would no longer have to live a miserable life in the future.
Bai Ling noticed Li Fa's gaze and asked, "It sounds reliable. I wonder how long have you been coming to Uncle Li's place?"
"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, so I told the truth. This family has been here for more than half a year, and it's rare for me to show kindness. Seeing that their family insisted on being sold to one place, I kept suppressing them.
If I don't sell it, I will lose a lot of money." Li Fa said with a bitter face.
Hearing this, Bai Ling said that he should look at the person first before making any decision. He couldn't just buy it back and offer it as a gift, right?
While waiting for people to come, Li Fa said again: "Miss Bai asked me to keep an eye on the embroiderer and the skilled nursing staff. I have a few here. I wonder if the girl wants to take a look?"
Bai Ling looked at Baicao, saw her nodding slightly, and said, "Then let's take a look together."
Li Fa knew there was a way, so he gave another order and then accompanied Bai Sanshu to say a few words. You can't neglect the head of the family, right?
Well, Li Fa has already concluded in his heart that Bai Ling is the real head of the family.
But since Li Fa was so smooth in dealing with things, he naturally knew that giving Bai Sanshu face would also make Bai Ling buy into it.
Not long after, the person Li Fa mentioned arrived.
The family of four looked neatly dressed. Although they were a little thin, they looked good-natured.
Especially that boy, his eyes were so clear that it was hard not to notice.
As for Xiu Niang and Hu Yuan, they were left to Baicao and Bai Sanshu to see. After all, they would be left for their use in the future.
"Little brother, are you willing to let you be a book boy next to my brother from now on, so that you can study and learn to read?" Bai Ling came to the boy and asked.
"Really?" The boy's eyes were bright, and he was obviously very interested in reading and literacy.
"Yeah. But if you want to stay with my brother, you have to learn kung fu first so that you can protect him in the future. Can you bear the hardship?" Bai Ling asked again.
"Yes." The boy nodded vigorously, then hesitated when he thought of his family, "Can you buy my grandma and my dad? Our family doesn't want to be separated."
"Can."
Bai Ling nodded affirmatively and asked again:
"Although I will buy you and your whole family, as you become my brother's book boy, you have to follow my brother where he wants to go. You can't be with your family all the time. Are you willing too?"
The boy was thinking, but did not reply in time. He obviously wanted to understand the meaning of Bai Ling's words. (To be continued)
