Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

I've never seen such a way to praise someone.

"Thank you for your kind words, Madam. Please enjoy your meal." The innkeeper smiled, and as soon as he finished speaking, a new mutton hot pot and bowls and chopsticks were served.

Since it's here, let's eat it; we can't waste food.

Lin Shuyun placed a piece of mutton on Gu Ru's plate. "Xiao Ru, eat more. You're growing, how can you eat like a cat? This new hot pot smells even better."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Gu Ru smiled shyly.

In addition, Gu Chen and Gu Bao were also taken into consideration.

Seeing Jiang Changtian looking over, she also put meat on his plate, treating everyone equally.

"That woman is a kind sister-in-law who loves her younger siblings. It's a pity that the man speaks so logically and is not a scholar."

The young man who had watched the commotion for a while rubbed his round belly and got up.

"Let's go, the mutton hot pot is hot enough, we should head back now."

Lin Shuyun heard the sound and glanced over.

Strange, why does this person look slightly familiar?

After eating and sweating profusely, Lin Shuyun and the others came to the inn to find Qin Niangzi and Old Man Xu.

"Well, you guys sneaked some mutton hotpot without even telling us!"

Upon arriving at the inn, Old Man Xu was the first to let out a scream.

Lin Shuyun took a food box and said, "I packed it for you. The shopkeeper only did this because he knows I'm so popular and charming. Otherwise, I don't know how long we would have to wait in line. Eat it while it's hot, or it won't taste good when it gets cold."

"It's good that you young ones still have a conscience and know how to respect your elders." Old Xu immediately took the food box.

After opening it, he took a bite and said, "Hmm! It still tastes the same. Although it's not as good as when it's fresh out of the pot, it's still alright considering your filial piety."

"Old man, have you eaten here?" Lin Shuyun asked upon hearing this.

Apart from the young general and Gu Chen, everyone else should be visiting Shengjing for the first time.

"Have you eaten it? I forgot." Old Xu thought for a moment, then started eating again.

Qin Niangzi muttered, "It's pointless to ask him. He's already senile. What could he possibly know?"

Then we went to eat, even though we had dinner, but it was Yunyun who brought it back, and it tasted different, so we couldn't accept that.

"Didn't you go to the Jiang family? Why are you back so soon?" Only Xiaoqing wasn't in a hurry to eat and was still concerned about this.

Jiang Changtian explained the reason.

Madam Qin slammed her hand on the table in anger. "This is outrageous! The Jiang family are such snobbish people! They're truly despicable. It's a good thing I didn't go; if I had, I would have given them a good dressing down!"

Jiang Changtian wasn't particularly annoyed. "Anyway, I wasn't planning on staying at the Jiang family's place anyway, so this is a good opportunity to avoid going."

The Jiang family's decision not to let them in also avoided a lot of trouble.

Gu Bao, who was standing to the side, was quite pleased. "Big brother, are we really not going back?"

He didn't like going back to the Jiang family; the people in the Jiang family were all unpleasant.

"No need to go back, you poor thing."

After eating and drinking her fill, Madam Qin ruffled Gu Bao's hair and then took Gu Ru to bed.

Lin Shuyun and Jiang Changtian also went to sleep.

Having gone so long without meat on the road, I felt incredibly aroused. All my worries were forgotten; I could deal with everything tomorrow.

……

……

Unlike Lin Shuyun and the others who slept soundly all night, the Jiang family did not sleep at all.

Early the next morning.

Jiang Hao rushed to the inn looking for the person, only to find that the person had already left.

"Where are the people? The guests who stayed at this inn last night, the ones with the eight-year-old child?"

Jiang Hao anxiously grabbed a passing shop assistant and asked.

"I don't know, those customers left early this morning," the waiter said.

Did they say where they were going?

"I don't know!"

Seeing that Jiang Hao's expression was not good, the waiter took two steps back to prevent the man from going crazy.

Jiang Hao was practically going crazy with anxiety.

Could it be that these children were heartbroken last night and left Shengjing overnight?

Upon realizing this possibility, Jiang Hao hurriedly went out to look for someone again.

Lin Shuyun and the others had already eaten breakfast and, after a leisurely stroll, finally arrived near Luming Academy.

I had beef noodles for breakfast. I must say, this is a big city, and there are so many different kinds of breakfasts. This beef noodle soup was delicious this morning.

Lin Shuyun was thinking about what to have for lunch when she suddenly heard Qin Niangzi ask.

"When is Changtian going to the academy for the exam?"

Old Xu said, "It seems like it will take another ten days, right? Luckily we set off early, otherwise, with all the stopping and starting along the way, we might not have made it in time."

Old Xu put on his big straw hat again, looking left and right.

Lin Shuyun said, "When my husband goes to study at the academy, we'll buy a house nearby and live there, just like we did in Wuyun County."

We need to buy a bigger yard, because there are more people now, otherwise we won't have enough room to live.

Qin Niangzi touched Lin Shuyun's forehead with the back of her hand, "You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"

"Aunt, what do you mean?" Lin Shuyun asked, puzzled.

Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Little sister, don't dream in broad daylight. Every inch of land in Shengjing is precious, and the rent is ridiculously high. You're lucky if you can even rent a tiny courtyard, let alone buy one."

"How expensive can it be?" Lin Shuyun asked.

She was a well-off woman with two thousand taels of silver, surely she could afford a small courtyard?

Xiaoqing looked at her and smiled, "Let me put it this way, a courtyard that's just inside costs 20,000 taels, and if you rent it, it'll cost several thousand taels. If it's even bigger, just imagine what the price would be?"

What kind of housing prices are these? They're outrageous!

Lin Shuyun's eyes widened. "Isn't there anywhere cheaper?"

"Yes, it's cheaper if you walk three miles outside the city."

Lin Shuyun: ...

So what is her two thousand? It's at most a year's rent.

"So what do we do now? We can't just go three miles out of town to rent a place to live without money, can we?" Lin Shuyun immediately deflated.

Who would have thought that a trip to Shengjing would turn a rich young woman into a penniless pauper? It's truly a blow.

"Let Old Man Xu go and inquire if there are any cheaper options nearby, or Xiaoqing, you could go?" Qin Niangzi looked at the two of them.

Others may not be able to afford a house, but these two can't possibly not.

Xiaoqing refused outright, saying, "I'm unfamiliar with this place and I'm afraid I'll get lost."

Looking at him is useless.

"I'll go. You guys go wander around and watch the fun. I'll go ask around at the real estate agency," Old Xu said cheerfully.

He had always been the one to find apartments before, so Lin Shuyun trusted him to take on the task.

He was told to meet at the entrance of the large restaurant in front of the building later.

As soon as Old Xu turned his back to the people, he started to look worried, saying that they had no money.

"Should we send a message to that unfilial son?"

“Hiss…” Old Xu scratched his head.

I can't seem to remember how the message was sent to the unfilial son.
