Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused
Chapter 58 The little peasant girl who dedicated herself to the scumbag 12
Wang Yue hasn't seen her parents for a long time and really misses them.
The Wang family had a son and a daughter, and they treated both children very well.
Wang Yang doted on his sister, and even when Si Zhuang was injured, he sent her ten taels of silver, which was quite a bit. The Wang family had a scholar, and ten taels must have been the money they had saved over the years.
Xu Tao frowned, she remembered that her grandfather seemed to have fallen recently and they spent a lot of money but still couldn't save him.
In addition, my cousin was bumped into by someone when he was taking the scholar exam this year, and a note was inexplicably found in his basket by the yamen runners. He was disqualified from the exam and has been depressed ever since.
Not long after, my aunt fell ill due to overwork, and my uncle was too busy to take care of the Xu family.
"Daughter, why are you frowning? Did something happen? Tell me and I'll help you solve it."
"It's okay, Dad. I just got up early today and I'm a little sleepy."
"Then go and rest. We'll leave at the beginning of the morning hour tomorrow."
The next day, Xu Tao woke up from a good sleep on the mule cart and found herself in the city. Outside, there was a bustling crowd of people and cars, and the shouts of vendors echoed one after another. It was more lively than the imperial city.
"Wake up, my girl. These are the buns I just bought for you. Come and eat them."
"Did Mom and Dad eat?"
After receiving the affirmation, Xu Tao started to eat the buns. After finishing, they arrived at the door of the dental clinic.
"Sir, do you want to buy or sell?"
The matchmaker smiled at everyone she saw and did not treat them badly because of their shabby clothes. She was very warm and welcoming.
"We're looking to buy six small, connected houses in West City, preferably with attached shops. Is there a suitable one?"
Mr. Xu often comes to work and is familiar with the locations.
East City is where the rich and powerful gather, and you'll find officials in every household you go to. South City is home to many academies and bookstores, and is relatively quiet, with no vehicles or horses allowed in.
The North City is home to the mansions of the wealthy, and is home to many gold, silver, and cloth shops. The West City is more like a market town, which is more suitable for the budget of ordinary people. There are also large markets and farmers setting up stalls, making it convenient for them to live and do business.
"There aren't any connected ones, but the six scattered ones are easy to find."
The matchmaker was in a dilemma. It was rare for six families to sell together. Moreover, in this peaceful and prosperous time, being close to the imperial city, few people would sell houses with shops.
The young man whispered a reminder to the matchmaker, and she remembered that a brother had come to sell his house and shop. Although they were two separate properties, they were connected and could be divided at will.
Father Xu also understood that it was hard to find a good house nowadays, so he agreed to go and take a look together.
When we got there, we saw two connected buildings with two courtyards.
There are four shops in front. Entering the hanging flower gate, there is the west wing on the left and the east wing on the right. Opposite is the main house, and on both sides of the main house are the east and west ear rooms.
After crossing the courtyard, you will reach the backyard, where various vegetables are planted and there is a peach tree.
After a quick look next door, the structure was pretty much the same. Xu Tao was very satisfied, but she didn't show it on her face.
"What's the price?"
"One thousand five hundred taels, sir, the lowest price you'd like is one thousand four hundred and fifty taels. The two houses are very convenient to get to the North and South Cities, so the price will naturally be a little higher."
You also saw when you came here that the business is booming. It will be very cost-effective whether you do business yourself or rent it out to others.
There are many shops nearby, and there are markets in the morning and evening, so it is very convenient for you to go out for a walk.
If the two brothers hadn’t been short of money to settle down in the Imperial City, they wouldn’t have sold it. They only put it up for sale these past two days, otherwise it would have been bought long ago…”
The matchmaker kept chattering. Throughout history, Xu Tao has always admired the saleswomen's sweet mouths. It would be great if she could be as eloquent as her.
Wang Yue didn't buy it, so she quietly asked her daughter for her opinion, and after getting her confirmation, she started bargaining.
The two exchanged sharp words, back and forth, and after half an hour they finally agreed on a price of 1,398 taels.
The two brothers were also anxious to make a move, fearing that someone else would get the house they liked in the imperial city first. They completed the formalities quickly, and all three parties were very satisfied.
Xu Tao gave her mother a big thumbs up. Wang Yue shook her head proudly. If she hadn't wanted to go see her parents earlier, she could have cut off a few more pounds.
"Mother, take this twenty taels."
"The house is the money you spent, why are you giving it back to me now? Don't worry, I have already prepared gifts for you to go to your grandparents' house."
Xu Tao stuffed the silver into her mother's hand without saying a word. Didn't she know whether her mother had the silver in her hand?
My mother always felt that she owed her natal family and was resentful about not being able to repay the money my uncle sent her.
Wang Yue quietly wiped away her tears and remained silent.
"Hey, Peach is here, come to grandma."
When the old lady opened the door and saw her granddaughter, she smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and led her away.
Wang Yue and his wife were completely ignored. What else could they do? They just went in by themselves.
"Here comes my dear Taozi. Grandpa will bring you something delicious."
Although Wang's father is nearly seventy years old, his voice is still loud and clear, like a bell, and he walks briskly.
"Grandpa, Grandma Taozi misses you guys so much, please don't be busy, come and talk to me~"
The two old people were so coaxed that they couldn't stop smiling and called their sweethearts.
When Uncle Wang came back in the evening, he was very happy to see his little niece. He said that the little girl had lost weight and he personally cooked a table full of delicious food.
Xu Tao saw the pile of bowls... a sweet burden.
After dinner, the family sat and chatted, and Wang Yue took out twenty taels from her pocket and placed them on the stone table.
"Sister, what are you doing? You bought so many things and I didn't tell you anything. Take the silver back quickly. I've saved some silver recently, so take it with you. It's important to cure Si Zhuang."
Mrs. Wang nodded repeatedly and had no objection to her husband taking out the money.
My sister and brother-in-law made great efforts to help them move into the city. How can I just stand by and watch them in trouble now?
"Yes, Xiaoyue, be obedient and take it. Daddy is still able to work, and he has saved some for you to take."
Wang Yue was deeply moved. She felt so lucky to have such parents, brother and sister-in-law.
"Mom, don't worry. We have money now, thanks to Taozi. We will move to Yucheng in the future."
Wang Yue didn't mention the exact amount of silver and money. She couldn't stop her daughter from taking it out that day, but she didn't want anyone else to know either.
After listening to the praises all night, Xu Tao felt like she was floating in the air.
Cao Xincheng endured the pain and slept and woke up again, and slept again again. In the morning, he could not bear it and got up.
Widow Cao was about to go out after packing up when she saw her son coming out holding his stomach. She hurried over to support him, but was pushed to the ground.
"Where are you going?"
She couldn't help but shudder at her son's cold gaze, and replied tremblingly, "I, I'm going to report it to the police. All our belongings have been stolen, son."
Cao Xincheng squatted down with a ferocious look on his face. The pain in his lower body made him sweat coldly, and his face looked even more terrifying.
"I told you not to report me to the police. You want to destroy me so you can live with your adulterer, right?!"
Widow Cao was shaking like a sieve, her lips turning pale with fear. "Who...who told you that? I didn't do that. Don't believe anyone else. Is it that bitch Xu Tao? She just wants to marry me and suppress me. Don't listen to her nonsense."
