The happy little days of the Ye family

The first house is not far from Yaxing, it takes half an hour by donkey cart to get there.

The house is located in the middle of Lijia Lane. It is a small house that is half old and not new.

As soon as you enter the door, there are two very good pomegranate trees. Walking inside, there is a green grape trellis, and next to it is a rather exquisite small swing.

Li He patted it twice and saw that the swing was quite strong, so he sat on it and swung twice with a smile.

Just as he was about to ask his sister to push the swing for him, he saw Yang glaring at him fiercely and quickly got off the swing.

There is also a small shed in the open space of the yard, with two unused firewood inside.

Although the yard is not big, it is quite cozy and looks very comfortable.

The people from Yahang saw that the Li family were very interested in the house and quickly led them into the house.

Although the yard is not big, there are quite a few houses.

The house has a total of eight large rooms, one is a hall, five rooms can sleep in, a utility room, and one is a kitchen and bathing place.

The previous owners had either moved away or sold the large furniture in the house, leaving only a few worthless items.

But the furniture was moved, and the room looked very spacious.

"There is also a small backyard behind the house."

After saying that, the group of people came to the backyard again, opened the door, and saw a flat ground that had been tidied up, which should be a place for drying things.

Walking in, there is a well next to the courtyard wall, and there is a small washing station next to the well.

There are two long bamboo poles not far away, which should be used to dry clothes.

Orion Li threw the bucket next to him into the well, and then brought up half the bucket of water.

Seeing that the water in the well was very clean and clear, Orion Li tasted it again and nodded to Yang after discovering that it was a sweet water well.

The layout of the house is very reasonable, and there is no shortage of everything. You can go in and live in it directly. The two of them are quite satisfied with the house.

However, my daughter bought this house with her own money, so it still depends on her wishes.

While Li Orion and the people from Yahang were talking, Yang walked up to Li Guoer and asked her quietly.

"This house looks pretty good to me, Guo'er, what do you think?"

"It's very good. Although it's a bit old, I can't fault it. The price is affordable."

Li Guoer was satisfied with this house. Although it was a little small and a little old, it was small, well-equipped, and the price was not expensive.

When Li He saw the mother and daughter whispering, he also came over.

"Isn't this house a little small? Isn't there another house? Let's take a look."

Yang nodded, "I definitely want to check out the second place. Just do some comparison shopping."

Then he reminded the siblings, "You will try your best to find faults later, and don't say that you have a crush on this house."

"understood."

"It's not that good here."

The two siblings agreed obediently and promised that they would not affect Yang's bargaining later.

The people from Yaxing saw that they showed people around houses and shops every day. They had already noticed the reaction of a few people and said cheerfully:

"The land lease of the house is 6 and a half cents, and there is a well in the house. It is enough for a family to live in."

"And the location of this house is very good. If the owner hadn't been anxious to sell it, he would have paid 135 taels of silver."

No one really believed what the man said. But the location of the house is really good. Walking through the two alleys in front is the main street of the town.

It can be said that it is in the center of the town. Not only is it convenient for shopping, but it is not too far from the town's medical center and academy. Life is very convenient.

Li Guoer was quite satisfied with the house, but she kept Yang's words in mind and pretended not to care.

"Uncle, isn't there another house? Let's go and take a look first." Li Guoer said calmly.

"Yes, this house is too small. Let's look at another place."

Different from Li Guoer's dissatisfaction in order to lower the price, Li He really felt that the house was too small.

There are few people in the village, and each household has a large house and yard. In comparison, the houses in the town are indeed a bit small.

However, the location is different. Although the houses in the town are small, the prices are not cheap.

The people at Yaxing more or less guessed what everyone was thinking, but they didn’t reveal it and led a few people out with a smile.

"The other one is near the academy. A scholar was born the year before last, and now the family has moved to the county. This house is quite popular. Many people have come to inquire about it in the past two days."

Hearing this, Yang just smiled and didn't take it to heart at all.

If it were really so good and so popular, the house would have been bought by someone a long time ago, and there would be no time for them to come and see it.

The academy is on the outskirts of the town, some distance away from Lijia Lane, and with the crowds of people coming and going in the town, donkey carts move slowly.

The donkey cart drove for nearly a quarter of an hour before arriving at the second house.

The second house is at the end of Yanjia Lane, and behind it is Juren Lane, which is very close to the two houses of the Ye family.

The house looked quite new. When the door was opened, there was a rather elegant courtyard inside.

There are a lot of flowers and plants growing inside, but no one has taken care of them for a long time, and the flower beds are overgrown with weeds.

There is a small pavilion on the edge of the flower garden, with a small stone table and several stone stools inside.

The yard looks quite big, but there are relatively few houses inside.

There are only 6 rooms in total. Excluding the hall, utility room and kitchen, there are only three sleeping rooms.

The backyard is also quite large, with a shed for storing sundries and firewood, a large donkey shed, a well, and a washing station.

Li Guoer was puzzled. The front and back yards were quite large, so why was the house so small?

Nowadays, people pay more attention to having more children and more happiness. A family can range from a dozen people to more than 20 people. This house is really not useful.

After a few people walked around, they returned to the small pavilion in the front yard and sat down.

Yang was very curious about this exquisite little pavilion and couldn't help but look around.

Thinking that the previous owner was a scholar, I couldn't help but praise him: He is indeed a scholar, and the house he lives in looks extraordinary.

Everyone in the Li family is a bigoted person and cannot read a single person. Yang has a natural admiration for scholars.

However, Orion Li and his two children don't like this kind of formal and exquisite place.

They all thought the house looked nice, but there were too few rooms inside, making it useless.

Moreover, this house is too expensive and not cost-effective at all.

The people in Yaxing are also very smart. It can be seen at a glance that Yang is the only one who likes this house, and they are trying their best to say all kinds of good things to Yang's side.

"This house has produced many scholars, and it's very close to the academy. 150 taels of silver is a very good deal."

"What a bargain. The yard is big, but the house inside is too small. It's useless." Li He looked disgusted.

Li Guoer and Li Orion both felt that the first house was better. They had never had a scholar in their family, so they had no idea about taking the exam to become a scholar.

The minority obeyed the majority, and Yang was finally convinced by the father and daughter.

After settling on the first house, Yang started bargaining with the people at the dental shop.

She said that the house was worthless, and it was reduced from 128 taels of silver to 120 taels.

When Li Guoer came out of the government office with the house deed, she felt like she was in a dream.

"Li He, hit me quickly."

When Li He heard what his sister said, he was not polite and slapped her arm.

Li Guoer rubbed the sore arm and smiled stupidly, "It hurts, I'm not dreaming."
