Zheng Xiaoqin had been immersed in her own pain and had not heard the conversation between Yang Ruoqing and the middle-aged and elderly woman.
So now, she was pulled by Yang Ruoqing and walked out of the alley. After getting back on the carriage, her head went blank.
She didn't know where to go to find Jiang Xianjun and her mother-in-law next, but Yang Ruoqing knew.
So Zheng Xiaoqin sat in the carriage, her head leaning against the inner wall of the carriage, her eyes looking straight through the window at the street scene outside, her heart a mess.
She is more angry now than the deception and loss that Jiang Xianjun brought her.
The carriage drove steadily along the streets of Qingshui Town. Gradually, Zheng Xiaoqin suddenly sat up straight, and her dilated pupils gradually focused.
She frowned and looked at the street scene outside, the doubts on her face getting deeper and deeper.
"Sister Qing'er, where are you going? It seems that you are leaving Qingshui Town..."
When she saw that the shops outside were getting rarer and rarer, and there were rows of big trees, and the road was better than the previous road, as if it was on an official road, Zheng Xiaoqin couldn't help but ask Yang Ruoqing about it.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Ahead of the official road, a new house has been built near the post station."
Built a new house?
Could it be that Xianjun came here to buy a house with that money?
impossible!
Ten taels of silver can be used to renovate several tile-roofed houses in the house and still have some left over, but ten taels of silver cannot buy a house in the town.
Even for the old old house in the alley, I heard that if you want to take it down, it will cost more than thirty taels of silver at least!
"Jiang Xianjun can't afford the house here. He should be renting a house here. The conditions here are better than the previous place." Yang Ruoqing explained to Zheng Xiaoqin while driving.
On the outskirts of Qingshui Town, near the official road leading to Wanghai County, there is a Qingshui River.
A long section of the official road was built around the Qingshui River.
The Qingshui River is rich in aquatic products and has charming scenery. In the past, there were large reed fields on both sides of the river. Then, I don’t know which year, suddenly wealthy businessmen took a fancy to this land and spent huge sums of money to build a large area of residences here. district.
It's a bit similar to modern suburban villas. The courtyards have different sizes, the big ones have three or four entrances, and the small ones have one entrance.
Rich businessmen transplanted many famous flowers, rare plants, and towering ancient trees here for free, and opened restaurants, theaters, and teahouses here.
This residential area is not for sale, only for rent.
In many counties or Qing'an County, rich people, dignitaries, young ladies, ladies and aunts get tired of living in the deep mansions in the city, so they will bring their maids and servants to rent a house here to relax.
Men can go fishing in the nearby Qingshui River.
Go hunting in Mianniu Mountain behind the house.
Women also have many ways to play, such as admiring flowers and fish, traveling around mountains and rivers...
Regarding the situation in this area, Yang Ruoqing had heard someone talk about it earlier, but she did not deliberately inquire about it.
But I didn't expect that Jiang Xianjun, a loser, would take the money his wife earned from taking care of other people's children and take her to this place to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf!
Can a farmer like him afford the prices and consumption levels here?
For a villager, ten taels of silver is enough to sit at home and eat and drink for two or three years.
But how long can the ten taels of silver last for consumption at the villa complex in Qingshui River?
Half a month has passed, and it will bottom out in less than a month. What will happen then?
What a confused thing!
And after hearing Yang Ruoqing's explanation, Zheng Xiaoqin also understood.
She dug her fingers tightly into the car window, looking at the small and large courtyards that gradually appeared in front of her eyes like they were located in a beautiful garden, and she gritted her teeth with hatred!
Because the specifications and grades of this area are different from the previous alleys, the people who live here have spent a lot of money, so there are people responsible for guarding the periphery of the residential area.
So there is an advantage and a disadvantage.
The disadvantage is that idlers cannot easily enter the residential area.
You must be a tenant here, or a relative or friend invited by the tenant to come and visit.
The advantage is that the residents living in every large and small house here have their information registered.
In other words, the security measures here are very good.
Seeing that the carriage was stopped, Zheng Xiaoqin was a little nervous and asked Yang Ruoqing in a low voice: "Sister Qing'er, will we not be able to get in?"
Yang Ruoqing made a calm gesture toward her, turned around, and sat firmly on the carriage. When the two guards who came to inquire came closer, Yang Ruoqing said a word to them.
One of the guards glanced at Yang Ruoqing doubtfully, turned around and ran back quickly to tell the people inside.
The remaining one stood aside, secretly suspicious.
Zheng Xiaoqin waited uneasily in the carriage, thinking that she was blocked from the outside, but Jiang Xianjun and his son were hiding inside and pretending to be rich...
She still earned the money, and the feeling in her heart...
After a while, not only did the guard who ran away come back, but there was also a middle-aged man with neat pleats.
The middle-aged man was out of breath after walking, and when he saw Yang Ruoqing standing next to the carriage, stroking the horse's mane, the middle-aged man recognized her for a moment, and immediately became so frightened that he crawled over and accelerated his pace towards this side.
Zheng Xiaoqin was a little surprised when she saw this, "Sister Qing'er? What is he?"
Yang Ruoqing turned her head and smiled at Zheng Xiaoqin: "Come to pick us up." Sure enough, the next scene left Zheng Xiaoqin speechless.
Such a neatly dressed person looked as humble as a dog in front of Yang Ruoqing.
Maybe it's a bit insulting to say this, but Zheng Xiaoqin has never studied, and she can't think of better words to describe the scene in front of her.
In short, these people were very respectful and cautious towards Yang Ruoqing, for fear of offending.
Even his words and deeds were flattering, flattering, and groveling...
In the end, Yang Ruoqing did not accept the groveling of these people, but gave them some instructions, then dismissed them with a wave of her hand, turned back to the carriage, and got into the carriage.
"Xiao Qin, I have found out clearly that Jiang Xianjun and his mother moved here seven days ago. The yard they rented is in the last one on the west side. I will take you there now."
Zheng Xiaoqin nodded numbly, her heart clenching together again.
"I came here seven days ago, but it was half a month before my mother-in-law left the house. It can be seen that she must have lived elsewhere in the past seven days, or maybe in an inn." On the way to the small courtyard on the west side, Zheng Xiaoqin said in a deep voice .
Yang Ruoqing hummed, "Maybe I was staying in an inn, but I finally found out that the inn environment was not good, so I inquired about this place."
That mother and son really know how to enjoy it!
Zheng Xiaoqin's desperate bitter smile came from the carriage behind him: "It seems like I'm going to come here today and beg for an explanation."
"I'm afraid the money won't come back, it's probably been squandered by them!"
Yang Ruoqing sneered, "Then give him a beating, a beating to relieve his anger, but it can't be in vain!"
