My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

Lin Qingxue found out about a restaurant with a good reputation and walked over there alone. As soon as she entered, someone came up to greet her. After tea and snacks were served, the waiter of the restaurant also walked over and sat down on the chair opposite her.

"I wonder if the girl wants to buy a house or a shop? What are your requirements?" said the second brother of Ya Si seriously.

"As for a house, of course I need one. After all, I have a large family, so I need a lot of living space. Furthermore, it needs to be close to a school so that my children can study. Oh, and a well would be even better! As for the shop, it must have front and back yards, because I'm planning to start a food business. So, not only does the backyard need a well for daily use, but it also needs to be equipped with a spacious and practical kitchen."

Lin Qingxue spoke with a smile on her face and a calm expression. After she finished, she gently picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly. Her elegant posture seemed as if everything was under control.

However, the expression on her delicate face was somewhat elusive.

After hearing Lin Qingxue's request, the waiter standing nearby pondered for a moment before responding, "Ah, young lady, you've come by chance! Just near Lixiang Academy, there's a student who, through his family connections, has secured an official position in a remote area. He'll have to leave our imperial city soon, and just two days ago, this student came to us and entrusted his house to me, asking me to help with it, whether it's renting it out or selling it directly."

"Okay, then please take me to see it," Lin Qingxue nodded and agreed with a smile.

Seeing that she really wanted to buy the house and was willing to make the trip, the second brother called a carriage and took Lin Qingxue to see the house.

The house is in the alley in front of Lixiang Academy. It takes about a quarter of an hour to walk to the academy. The house has two courtyards and three small courtyards in the backyard. Each small courtyard has six rooms.

There is a main courtyard in the front yard, a front hall for receiving guests, next to the front hall is the dining room, next to it are two servants' rooms and a kitchen, and there is a well at the door.

The overall layout was quite acceptable. Lin Qingxue took a tour of the house under the guidance of the second brother. The price was not expensive, one thousand eight hundred taels of silver, with no bargaining.

After coming out of the house, the waiter took her to see the shop. The shop was in the east city, and the house was in the south city. The north city and the west city were inhabited by high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the imperial city. Most of the people living in the east city were rich people. Most of the people living in the south city were students and businessmen. The same was true for the central city, with a more mixed population.

When they arrived in Dongcheng, the waiter took Lin Qingxue to see the shop. There were two shops, both with front and back yards. One of them used to be a restaurant. There was a second floor in the front yard, a kitchen and a well in the back yard, and two small rooms where people could live.

The other shop was previously a clothing store. It had a relatively small space. Although there was a well in the backyard, Lin Qingxue did not like the layout.

After a walk around, Lin Qingxue and her second brother returned to Yasi and saw that Lin Qingming had already arrived and was sitting in the hall waiting for her.

"Brother, you're here," Lin Qingxue was very happy to see Lin Qingming coming, and asked with a smile.

"Well, what do you think of this place? Have you decided?" Lin Qingming nodded and asked curiously, not knowing whether she had bought the shop.

"I just went to see it, it's okay," Lin Qingxue replied. She took a sip of the hot tea that had just been served, then turned to look at the waiter and said, "I want that house, and I want the shop that's used as a restaurant. I really want it, so can you give me a discount?"

"Madam, I'm giving you a sincere price. How about this? I'll give you a discount of twenty taels. What do you think?" The waiter said with an embarrassed look on his face, but he was actually very happy in his heart.

Lin Qingxue nodded and said loudly: "Okay, I want it. Go and help me with the transfer."

As Lin Qingxue spoke, she took out three thousand taels of silver notes from her space purse, one thousand eight hundred taels for the house, one thousand one hundred taels for the shop, and a discount of twenty taels, which made a total of two thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight taels of silver.

Seeing Lin Qingxue gave the silver readily, the second brother smiled even more happily. He gave Lin Qingxue the change and went to replace the deed for her.

After waiting for almost an hour, the second brother came over with the new deed. Lin Qingxue took it and looked at it. After confirming that there was no problem with the name, she took the key given by the second brother and left.

"Qingxue, why is Laowu's name on your house? Why not your own?" Lin Qingming asked unhappily when he thought of the name on the deed he had just seen. This girl only thought about her family and never thought about herself.

"The shop is in my name?" Lin Qingxue looked up at Lin Qingming. She knew that Lin Qingming must be unhappy that the shop was not in his name, but she had her own plans. Besides, there were so many people here and it was not the time to discuss this.

Lin Qingming also reacted. Although he was unhappy, he did not continue the topic. The two went to the fabric shop to buy some coarse cloth and cotton cloth, and bought 60 kilograms of cotton. Then they went to the next door to buy some hand and face lotions, and went to the city gate to meet everyone.

These are bought to make bedding and clothes for the eleven people I just bought today. You can't just keep wearing the clothes you have on in such a cold day, right?

When they arrived at the city gate, Lin Qingming saw from afar that Aunt Lin and the others had arrived a long time ago and were lifting the curtain to look in their direction!

After they met up, they had no time to chat. Aunt Lin asked Lin Qingxue to get in the car quickly, while Uncle Lin and Lin Qingming were responsible for driving the car home.

When they got home, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. The lunch was gone. No one felt hungry while shopping, but when they got home, they were tired and hungry.

Aunt Lin asked Uncle Lin to take the children to unload the things, and she took Lin Qingxue and other female relatives to the front hall. It was very cold outside and they didn't want to suffer from the cold.

Seeing Lin Qingxue and others coming back, Mrs. Lin couldn't bear it anymore. Uncle Lin and Lin Qingming came back and sent a car full of people to stay at home, saying that they were servants bought by Lin Qingxue and then left.

Mrs. Lin and Old Man Lin were confused and had many questions they wanted to ask Lin Qingxue, but since she hadn't come back yet, they could only keep them to themselves.

Now that she knew Lin Qingxue was back, Mrs. Lin could no longer hold back, and so did everyone else. In the entire hall, only the Liu family was absent. All the members of the Lin family were present, and everyone was very curious about Lin Qingxue's behavior of buying people.
