Lu Jiao looked at the place where the merchant's house next door was burned, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "It is true that our family has caused trouble to your family, so I accept the money, but can you allow me a while? Because I can't take it all at once. Come out with so much money."

The merchant thought for a while and agreed, and incidentally did a good deed.

"As soon as the day breaks, my family will move to another place. I will first lend my house to your family to live in. After a few days, I will come to get the money, and our two families will transfer ownership."

Lu Jiao was worried about having no place to live, but when she heard what the neighbor next door said, she thanked her happily: "Thank you."

She turned her head and looked at another neighbor.

This neighbor is a small official in the capital, and the house is ancestral property, and it is quite big, but they were unlucky, the house was burned badly, a large part of the east wing was burned, and a lot of the backyard was also burned. In fact, even if it is repaired, it will not be able to repair the original appearance, and if it is repaired, the old and new patterns will appear abrupt, unless it is completely demolished and rebuilt.

It would cost a lot of money to rebuild, and they would not tear down and rebuild them all, and he had no reason to let them do so.

So the neighbors were extremely troubled.

After Lu Jiao came to the capital, she asked someone to inquire about the situation of the neighbor next door. She knew that this family was an ancestral house, so she didn't even think about buying it.

"Our family can pay to repair your house, what do you think?"

This neighbor is the leader of the city gate guarding the city. Hearing Lu Jiao's words, he said with a bitter face, "Even if it is repaired, it will not be restored to its original state. Otherwise, my house will be sold to yours, right?"

Lu Jiao looked at him in surprise, and it took her a long time to say: "This is not right, your family seems to be an ancestral property."

Ordinary people don't sell their ancestral property, Lu Jiao is thinking for this city gate leader, but the city gate leader thinks that Lu Jiao doesn't want to spend money to buy their house, and said angrily.

"Even if you spend money to repair our house, our house will not be restored to its original appearance. Half of the old and half of the new, do you think we can see it? If we overthrow all the new ones, our family will have no money."

The salary of Chengmen leader is not much, barely able to support a family, so their family has no money to tear down the house and rebuild it.

After hearing this, Lu Jiao understood Chengmen Ling's house, but would it be too abrupt to buy Chengmen Ling's house?

Lu Jiao pondered, but Xie Yunjin said slowly, "Since it's hurting their family, let's buy it together and sell the property in Qinghe County."

Xie Yunjin's words give people the impression that their family is going to sell all their properties to buy the houses of two neighbors, which is easy to sympathize with.

After hearing his words, the leader of the city gate sighed and said, "I have no other choice. If the burning is less, I will be done repairing it. The key point is that the burned area of ​​our house is too large."

Lu Jiao looked at him, then at Xie Yunjin, Xie Yunjin nodded slightly towards her, and then said with his eyes, their family really needs a big place, they have four sons, and the son will get married in the future.

After thinking about it, Lu Jiao agreed, turned around and looked at the city gate leader, and said hesitantly: "Your house is indeed burning badly. Since you want to sell it, we can't say whether or not to buy it, so let's pay the price of the neighbor next door." Sell ​​it to us, but please allow us a while, we have to sell the family property, and then pay you the money."

Lu Jiao knew that the courtyard of Chengmen Leader's house was also very big, about the same size as the merchant's house next door, so she offered such a price.

The city gate leader was afraid that Lu Jiao would disagree, so he readily agreed.

After the two neighbors and Lu Jiao made up their minds about this matter, they turned around and went home to discuss this matter with their family members.

Later, Lu Jiao and Xie Yun would like to thank Tang Xun: "Thank you, Mr. Tang."

Tang Xun waved his hands with a smile, stared at Xie Yunjin for several times, secretly amazed in his heart.

Earlier, he heard that this was a rural Juren from Qinghe County. He thought he would see a poor and down-and-out man, but he did not expect to be such a handsome and outstanding man. He heard that he was Jieyuan from Ningzhou, and he was expected to compete for this meeting. people.

Tang Xun sighed for his friend, it seems that there is really no chance.

Tang Xun thought about leaving with fists in his hands.

"I've brought two thieves back to Wucheng Bingma Division. Don't worry, I will find out the master behind them for you two, and I will let you know when I have news."

"it is good."

Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin actually knew that these two people were sent by Prince Qin Xiao Ting, but they had no way to tell Tang Xun about it, so they could only nod their heads: "I'm here to serve you, Commander Tang."

"fine."

Tang Xun took the people away, Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin turned back and entered the house.

But thinking that the neighbor next door would move out at dawn, and their family would have a place to live, both of them heaved a sigh of relief.

Lu Jiao looked up at Xie Yunjin, and said with a smile, "Is this a blessing in disguise for our family?"

There are very few people selling houses in Beijing, let alone two houses selling at the same time, which is really not easy.

Their family bought the two neighbors, and once opened up in the future, it will become a mansion covering a huge area, enough for the two of them and their four children to grow up and marry their wives.

But don't move right now.

Lu Jiao looked at Xie Yunjin and said, "Although we bought the two neighbors, don't move for now, just leave it at that."

"it is good."

People outside know that their family bought the two houses next door, at most they say they are reasonable, and they don't think too much about it. If they renovate the house at this time, it will be a hole in the eye.

After daybreak, the neighbors moved out, took away all the valuables from the house, and gave the worthless ones to Lu Jiao and the others.

Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin moved their family to the neighbor's house next door.

The neighbor's house is very big, as big as Lu Jiao's house, not only has a garden, a koi pond, but also an east and west courtyard. A large garden is built in the middle of the east and west courtyards, and there is a main courtyard in front of it for entertaining guests.

After the four little ones moved in with Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin, they praised in amazement: "Mother, this place is so big, it's bigger than our house."

"Yeah, it's about the same size as our home in Qinghe County."

The little ones forget about the house that burned down because of this new yard.

The four of them happily took their friends to visit the yard.

Lu Jiao ordered people to clean and resettle.

Everyone in the Xie family was busy.

Many people outside also knew about the death of the Xie family.

The old man of the Qi family rushed over immediately with Qi Lei.

The first one was the Xie family's house, and when they entered, they saw a mess and scorched things all over the place. Mr. Qi and Qi Lei were taken aback, and couldn't help but screamed: "Jiaojiao, Dabao, Two treasures, three treasures, four treasures, where are you?"

The four little ones happened to be strolling in the garden next door, and suddenly heard Mr. Qi calling, and the four little ones yelled loudly: "Grandpa Qi, we are here, we are here."
