Wang Can obviously thinks so too!
After all, this is the first courtyard. Although the area is larger than the ordinary first courtyard, there are only four rooms that can be used for living, except the study room.
There are currently nine people living in the house, large and small, and four rooms are just right.
If there is a squeeze, there will only be one room available.
And the only room that could be empty was the one where she and her children lived!
While Li Yuan tidied the house quickly, she talked to Wang Can about Yan Jiao.
When she finished speaking, she saw Wang Can standing there with a shocked face. After a while, he sighed: "No wonder I heard that Aunt Lin and her family are going to Fucheng these days!"
Wang Can originally thought that after Chen Wu returned to Chen's house, Yan Jiao's hardships would come to an end. From now on, she would no longer have to worry about food, rice, oil and salt. It was not an exaggeration to say that she went to Chen's house to enjoy the blessings.
She really never dreamed that in less than a month, the two of them would be in trouble like this.
While she felt aggrieved for Yan Jiao, she was also a little lucky, and said: "Fortunately, it was discovered early. If Sister Jiaojiao had given birth to a child and found out like this, there is no telling what would happen then. It's better to separate now. , at least she doesn’t have to live such a miserable life. Maybe some people will criticize her because of her married status, but as long as she doesn’t mind, it doesn’t really matter. Maybe she can find a brother-in-law like you. OK."
After Li Yuan heard what she said, she briefly talked about what was moved from the Qian Mansion's warehouse, what was left now, and the cases in Fucheng.
At the end, looking at the almost tidy room, she took out the money bag Su Mingshan brought back, opened it, took out three hundred taels and handed it to her.
"Put this money away. When Junzi finishes his exam today, you can talk to him yourself. My aunt has recovered her memory. My aunt is not in good health. She is in the capital now. After he finishes his exam, we won't go to Fucheng yet."
After saying that, she paused and then said: "But you can go, anyway, grandma and uncle are still over there. Jiaojiao hasn't decided what to do at the moment, you can discuss it together. I should not do it for the time being. I'm going to Fucheng, so you can take care of the arrangements for our noodle stall here. Is it going to be made for Third Aunt and the others as originally said, or something like that."
Because both of them are quick at work, Wang Can looked at the tidy room and asked, "Sister, if you don't go to Fucheng, the noodle stall will be given to the third aunt, what about you?"
Because she had various kinds of money, she was not short of money now, so she said softly: "The land in my space now totals thirty-two pieces, two for the small one and four for the big one. The yield is high and fast, and the acceleration is The money I have on hand is enough to buy a house in the capital, so it doesn't matter whether the noodle stall continues or not."
"Third Aunt is different from us. They urgently need this money. We will do it for them first as we said before. During this time of rest, I can spend time with my two children, and by the way, I can go back to Lijia'ao from time to time. , look at the situation."
"In addition, my aunt gave us three hundred taels each. We can't take the money and just pretend it's nothing. We have to return the gift no matter what. But I think my aunt should not be short of anything, so I want to give it to her and my aunt with my own hands. Make a better outfit.”
Wang Can knew that after Laozhai bought a bullock cart, the money on hand became less and less.
Hearing this, he said: "That's okay. After Brother Junzi finishes his exam, the noodle stall will be made directly for Third Aunt and the others."
She added these three hundred taels, making a total of more than seven hundred taels.
Not to mention how much money you have in Liuyun County, even if you put it in Xinyang Mansion, you can buy an ordinary second-entry courtyard and still have half the money left.
You must know that an ordinary family of five or six people in Xinyang Mansion spends more than ten or twenty taels a year.
With these things, she can definitely be considered wealthy.
It's just that her brother Junzi also accepted the money from the two aunts. He couldn't just accept the money without any indication.
"Sister, you see, I don't know what to give to my two aunts. How about I pay for the cloth and you do it?"
"Are you serious? If I want to buy cloth to make clothes, I must treat everyone equally and buy good cloth. I can't just give my aunt a good one and then give her a bad one."
"Seriously, can the money I spend to buy cloth be worth what my two aunts gave me? I can afford this money, and I believe brother Junzi will think so. We will pay for it, and you will do the work, sister. Otherwise, we can ask an embroiderer to do it. , it should cost a lot of money, and the result may not be good."
"Okay, I'll draw the patterns myself and make them myself. Let's go and find Caijing. I'll talk to you about the rest when we have time later. She was frightened at night on the way, so let her simply wash up and rest for a while."
"Okay, then I'll boil the hot water!"
When Li Yuan came to see Zhou Caijing again, she saw Caiwei and Qingsha, each wearing two exquisite silk flowers on their heads and red coral beads in their hands.
"Mom, look, my cousin gave this to me. Does it look good?"
Qingsha's eyes lit up when she said this.
However, Caiwei's excited eyes were somewhat reserved: "Mom, this..."
Li Yuan glanced at the two children and then looked at Zhou Caijing.
The latter took a brocade box from the girl's hand, then waved the girl away, then smiled and said: "Sister, this thing is not worth a few dollars, let the children wear it and play with it. Besides, the things inside are mine A meeting gift for you and your cousin!"
Li Yuan understood that Zhou Caijing's words of worthlessness were aimed at people like them who lived in high-end mansions.
For ordinary people like her, this thing is worth a lot of money.
Without going into too much detail, just looking at the color of the coral beads, you can tell that this thing must be at least 12 years old.
If there are many, it may be dozens or hundreds of taels.
And how much rice and noodles can be bought with ten taels?
Without the price increase, it would be about two thousand kilograms of white flour!
Seeing that Li Yuan was silent and had no intention of taking the brocade box, Zhou Caijing turned around unconsciously and looked at the surrounding environment.
Although this house is a bit small, it's not too bad. Besides, both the two children and Li Yuan are well-dressed, so it shouldn't be like this!
After thinking about it, she continued to push the brocade box forward: "Sister, please accept it!"
Li Yuan heard her calling her sister kindly, so she reached out to take it, without opening it to look, but said: "The house has been tidied up, you go over first, I will get you a basin of water, you wash up, first Take a rest. I'll call you later when I've finished cooking. As for your girl and the coachman, I'll have someone take them to the inn later."
"Okay! I have already explained everything to them. They will stay in the inn these days and come to me in five days."
"Five days? Are you going back in five days?"
"Well, I have to go back and check on my aunt and my aunt."
Speaking of Qingmei, Zhou Caijing thought of the portraits she saw at Su's house, and heard Ou Kui talk about Qingmei's experiences. She couldn't help but blush.
She was even glad that what happened to her aunt was not that bad!
"Sister, take me to burn incense for my second aunt tomorrow, and take a look at where you used to live. I can talk to my aunt about this when I get back to the capital."
"OK!"
After Zhou Caijing washed up and rested, Li Yuan and Wang Can returned to the main room with their two children.
She did not carry the two children on her back, but opened the brocade box in front of them.
When I saw the simple and crude stack of banknotes inside, I was immediately shocked.
