As for Yaoguang's suggestion of letting her enter the palace, Sun didn't dare to even think about it.

To her, the queen and the princess were like the Bodhisattvas in the temple. She could worship them and show her respect for them. But if she really encountered them one day, she was afraid that she would be frightened to death.

Thinking about this matter, Sun couldn't sleep well the whole night. She was half asleep and half awake with nightmares about herself being brought into the palace.

After eating the breakfast made by Yaoguang, the two of them packed up quickly and got on the carriage that Yaoguang had called.

The frame of the carriage was very wide. Sun didn't think it was strange. She just felt that the frame was spacious enough to hold more things.

The one driving the car was a palace eunuch, who had been carefully instructed by Cai Fan. He looked straight ahead and dared not say much.

He helped move the things in the courtyard onto the cart, and then silently drove the cart towards Li's Mansion.

Oh, no, this is the Qiao Mansion now.

Wherever the carriage went, passers-by gave way.

Sun couldn't see the scene outside from inside the carriage, she only felt that the carriage was stable.

When I got off the car, I looked and saw that it was indeed the alley in front of the Wei family's door, so I felt completely relieved.

Yaoguang helped Sun get off the carriage, and immediately a group of servants came over to help carry the luggage.

Among them was a masked man working with his head down.

Yaoguang recognized Cai Fan at a glance. Cai Fan did not say anything, fearing that his appearance would scare Sun.

The two of them have a tacit understanding and don't disturb each other.

Sun didn't pay any attention to this side and was directly pulled by Yaoguang to the easternmost side of the yard.

"Aunt, over here on the wall is where I live. I can climb over here later." Yaoguang pointed at the wall and said concisely.

Although climbing over the wall is somewhat dangerous, Sun Shi couldn't let Yaoguang open a door in the wall. If the Wei family was unhappy, there would be trouble.

So climbing over the wall is the best option.

So the small courtyard on the east side became where Sun lived.

Although it is a small courtyard, it is much larger than the one next door. Once you step into the courtyard, there are six rooms, which can be used for living or storing things. There is also a small kitchen in the corner of the courtyard.

Sun was very satisfied with this place, but there was only one drawback: "There is no well here, so it is not very convenient to get water."

Cai Fan, who was among the servants, frowned when he heard this. That's right. The servants brought water to people living in this yard, so the master didn't need to do anything.

It's time to recommend some palace maids to Miss Yaoguang!

When Cai Fan was eager to try, he heard Yaoguang say, "Aunt, let's dig a well."

Although digging wells is a bit backward, Yaoguang can help Sun get water in a faster way, such as installing a faucet directly in the yard.

But Yaoguang knew that she had to proceed step by step and not let her aunt worry too much.

"Well, it's a good idea to dig a well! There's such a large piece of open space in the yard, it would be a waste if it was left empty. We can grow some vegetables..."

"You see the open space outside is quite large. You can put a rack here and grow some vine melons. Then you can plant some melons and fruits next year so you don't have to buy them yourself."

"By the way, is there a pond where we are? We can raise fish there." Sun said with some anticipation.

After knowing that this piece of land belonged to him, Sun gradually became bolder.

You don’t have to spend money on housing anymore, so the only thing left is food. You can grow your own vegetables and eat them yourself, which saves you a lot of money!

What you can’t finish can be sold!

After arriving in the capital, the thing that bothered Sun the most, apart from the rent, was the cost of vegetables. The price of vegetables in the capital was several times higher than in her hometown.

Yaoguang took note of what Sun said and planned to send someone to tidy up the land immediately.

Sun kept muttering and planning all the way, and suddenly stopped when his mouth became dry.

"Why is this yard so big?" Sun asked in confusion.

“There are still so many houses?”

Although Sun had seen how big the courtyards of wealthy families were after visiting the Wei family, this courtyard seemed to be even bigger than the Wei family's. However, Sun only saw two of the courtyards and a long wall, and she didn't know how many courtyards were on the other side of the wall.

If it's just her and Yaoguang living together, there's no need for such a big house.

Yaoguang thoughtfully suggested: "Tear down all these houses and turn them into fields."

After hearing this, Sun was silent for a while and her pace gradually slowed down.

Such a nice house is demolished just like that. What a waste!

Sun was troubled for a while, but if she didn't tear it down, she would have no other use for it. If no one lived in it, it would be covered with dust, and there would be snakes, insects, rats and ants making nests in it. An old woman like her couldn't clean it up, and it would be even more troublesome.

So he agreed with Yaoguang's suggestion and demolished the house to turn it into fields.

At least the fields can be used to grow vegetables, but this house is really useless to her.

It’s not that Sun hadn’t thought about renting out the house, but after all, the house was given to him by someone else.

The old lady thinks it is not good to make money from gifts given by others! This is not polite.

Besides, it would be troublesome to have too many people. They are all kinds of people and I don’t know whether they are good or bad. What if they steal her things again?

It’s not as good as the crops in the fields, which just grow and can be eaten when they grow up.

Earlier, when she was chatting with other old ladies on the street, she heard them say that a high-ranking official secretly gave away the rewards given by the emperor and threw them away, and was locked up in a cell.

Only then did Sun realize that there were so many rules in the capital, and that things given by the emperor could not be given to others.

After the grandmother and granddaughter went out for a walk, they made this decision.

Sun's opinion was: there were many small courtyards here, so one should be left for her, one for Qiao Xun, one for Yaoguang, and one more for guests, and the rest could be turned into fields.

By the time the grandchildren grow up and the family has more people, they will all be able to live here.

Therefore, the ones chosen by Sun were all those closest to the east.

A family must live together.

After saying this, Sun looked at Yaoguang and asked for her opinion.

Yaoguang naturally had no objection. It could be demolished, it could be demolished. After the demolition, she would start planning the farmland and farm.

Cai Fan had almost finished cleaning up, but he didn't know that the grandmother and granddaughter had made up their minds to tear down the house.

He just waited for Yaoguang to walk back into the yard, walked up to her respectfully, bowed, and gestured to the group of people standing in the corner.

Yaoguang was introduced to the palace maid, no, the maid who was rewarded by the higher-ups.

When the Grand Princess learned that Yaoguang was only accompanied by an old woman, she considerately gifted Yaoguang with a group of palace maids.

There was a row of beautiful young girls in brocade clothes at the edge of the yard, and Sun couldn't bear to look at them for a few more times. But after knowing that this group of people were here to serve her, the old lady immediately withdrew her gaze and dared not look at them any more.

She had never been taken care of by so many beautiful girls in her life, and she felt so embarrassed. Moreover, they were dressed like the daughters of rich families, so how could she dare to let them serve her?

Yaoguang thought about it and realized that if her aunt needed to convert the entire house into farmland, she would definitely not be able to handle it alone.

So Yaoguang asked, "Is there anyone who knows how to farm?"

Cai Fan was stunned for a moment. Can you farm?

"Those who know how to farm, please take half a step forward!" Cai Fan shouted.

The maids looked at each other for a long time. A little maid with dark skin standing at the back came forward and said, "When I was at home, I did some farm work. I picked vegetables and raised chickens."

Cai Fan immediately pointed at her and said, "It's you."
