He was tall with a beard and long legs. He stepped onto the car and leaned in. He first watched the snake twisting in the sack, then estimated its position and pinched seven inches of the snake in one fell swoop.
Then he opened the mouth of the sack, and the snake's head and body were exposed.
He was shocked. He was so big. He was indeed a top-notch, living five-step snake! I took it back and cut open the bile of the snake to replenish the body. The snake body was cooked and soaked in medicinal wine. It was also a great tonic, hahahaha!
He stuffed the snake back in and tied the bag tight again.
"Young lady, give me a basket of 12 taels of silver, what do you think?"
Jiang Yue nodded, "Okay."
"readily!"
The bearded man didn't know what his position was, so he casually took out a dozen taels of silver.
Jiang Yue collected the money and took Jiang Nian to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
This is her first time going to a restaurant in ancient times!
She was very curious about ancient dishes and ordered a lot of meaty dishes, plus 10 steamed buns. The waiter was also sincere and reminded, "Our steamed buns are big, and the average man will be full after eating three."
Jiang Yue shook her head and thanked him for his kindness, "Just go ahead, my husband has a big appetite."
If you have to give money away, the guy is happy with it.
The food was served quickly, and as soon as Jiang Yue tasted it, she knew it was just ordinary cooking, just cooked. It didn't taste fried, stir-fried, stewed or fried. It didn't taste bad, but it wasn't delicious either.
She didn't waste anything, ate some vegetables, then nibbled on a steamed bun, and left the rest for Jiang Nian to finish.
She touched Jiang Nian's belly, which was just a little bloated. He put his hand on the back of her hand and looked at her shaking her head.
Does it mean it’s not delicious?
"Eat this meal first, and we'll make something delicious when we get back."
He nodded.
After the two of them left, the waiter came over to clear the table. He saw that everything was eaten on the plate and the steamed buns were gone. He was stunned. This lady's husband really has a good appetite. I wonder if he can afford it?
The Yaren's residence where they paid the deposit was not far from the hospital, and it took less than half an hour to drive there by mule cart.
Seeing the guests arriving, Yaren immediately smiled and took out a small book, "Madam, husband, according to your request, we have found several houses."
"Can I go take a look now?"
"Okay." He had the key in his hand.
The first house was two streets away from the city gate, and it took half an hour to walk, not counting the city gate. The house has a square layout, and it must have been renovated to do business. It has a front yard and a back room. There are 5 houses in total, and the asking price is 80 taels of silver.
The second house was behind the hospital. It was long and narrow, and there were people living in front of and behind the house. The alley is three and a half meters wide, and a mule cart can pass through it. There are 4 houses in total, and the asking price is 90 taels of silver.
The third house was across the street from the Wang family, and it took half an hour to drive a mule cart from the city gate. There are 8 houses in total, and the asking price is 130 taels of silver.
The house had a square layout, and Jiang Yue fell in love with it as soon as she entered the yard.
There are two large yards at the front and back, suitable for drying things; the eaves are wide, so light rain cannot enter the house; the corridor under the eaves is covered with stone slabs, so your shoes will not get wet when walking in the rain.
The alley of this street is five meters wide, and the neighbors on the left and right have walls.
Ya Ren said, "The owner of the house on the left has another residence, but he has not moved in yet. The house on the right is a scholar's house, and the son of that house is a scholar."
He was filled with envy.
In this day and age, everything is of inferior quality, only reading is of high quality. It's a pity that when natural disasters come, Bai Wuyi is a scholar who can't lift his hands or shoulders, and has to rely on his sisters to support the family.
All of these houses have wells. Logically speaking, they are all pretty good, but the first house is still too close to the city gate; the neighbors of the second house are too close, and besides, being behind the medical center is not a good thing.
She said to Yaren, "If you can negotiate for 120 taels of silver, I can buy it directly right now. I can also give you half a tael more privately."
I lost 10 taels of silver in one fell swoop, which is quite a lot. Yaren gritted his teeth and said, "You two, wait here for a moment. I'll go talk to the landlord."
"OK."
If a house with such a good location and layout is sold, it is most likely because of the urgent need for money. If she used her modern bargaining method of cutting the price in half, the other party would probably faint from anger...
She held Jiang Nian's hand and went to check the situation around the house. It's not shabby, but it must have been renovated before she moved in.
Looking at so many rooms, it really is possible to build two kitchens!
"Big boy, there are so many rooms, do you want to sleep in one by yourself?"
He tilted his head, not understanding what it meant.
She pointed to a room first, then to herself, "I'll sleep here."
Pointing to another room, "You sleep there."
He pressed his lips into a line, shook his head, and held her hand tightly, which meant he disagreed.
Jiang Yue didn't insist on sleeping in separate rooms, she just asked casually and let it go if she didn't want to.
Yaren ran back panting, smiling brightly, "Madam, the landlord has agreed. You can register for the lease modification now."
Jiang Yue nodded. It seemed that he was really in urgent need of money. Very good. He was very efficient today.
The landlord was a thin, middle-aged man who remained silent throughout the whole process. He just nodded and signed, then took the money and left.
Each side paid half of the middle fee, paid the tax money, and then gave the toother the other half of the money, and the house deed was obtained.
She didn't like the previous door, so she went directly to the furniture store and bought the largest and thickest wooden door, and then replaced it with a strong lock. Just throw the old ones into her space and keep them there.
Although the wooden door can be broken by cutting it down for two more days, at this time, we can't afford the iron door.
Although she had moved quickly enough, it was already early in the afternoon (three o'clock in the afternoon) when she finished all of this.
There were four grain shops in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of Fucheng. In order to combat the malicious hoarding of grain merchants, the government stipulated the amount of grain that people could buy per head. She had no choice but to go to every grain store and bought a total of four kilo of soybeans and four kilo of black noodles.
After leaving the city gate at the beginning of Youshi (five o'clock in the afternoon) and getting away from the city gate guards, he quickly rushed back to Jiangjiacun.
In the summer evening, there are still beautiful red clouds. I don’t know if there will be another one tomorrow.
She leaned in Jiang Nian's arms, her hair blown away by the wind, and she actually felt quite comfortable at this time.
On the way back, she suddenly remembered that she had ordered a large wooden shelf at a grocery store in town and hadn't put it away yet!
Change the route immediately.
The grocery store owner waited for a day and thought they would not come to pick it up. If they don't want this big show, it will be difficult to sell it. The main reason is that the shop space is small and there is no room to put it.
Fortunately, people finally came.
This big thing definitely couldn’t fit into the carriage, so the boss helped them tie it to the top of the carriage and gave it a bundle of rope. Wait until you get home to assemble it.
The two hurriedly hurriedly and slowly arrived at home in the dead of night. Such a dusty day!
She took out the remaining silver and copper plates, leaving 115 taels and two strings of copper plates.
If the weather is bad tomorrow, they will cook cooked food at home; if the weather is good tomorrow, they will go into the mountains.
She touched the big cub's ears and asked, "Do you think the weather will be good tomorrow?"
The big cub shook his ears, the weather will definitely be good tomorrow.
