After hearing this, Lu Tai smiled even more and pushed Wu Mao aside. Wu Mao was angry but dared not say anything.

Tong Wenyao glanced at Wu Mao and reassured him, "Then let's go sign it."

After hearing this, Lu Tai's mouth corners were grinning from ear to ear, and he quickly asked her to sign the document.

Xing'er understood Tong Wenyao's expression and said to him, "What's the price of the house? If you think it's okay, let's go to the government office to sign the contract immediately!"

A hint of hesitation flashed in Lu Tai's eyes, but when he thought about the ten taels of silver he would still get after the transaction, he quickly agreed.

This house has a good location, with an area of ​​more than 400 square meters, plus two wells inside. The price is 361 taels.

Xing Er frowned and said disdainfully, "This house is so old and still so expensive. It should be cheaper."

Lu Tai was a little embarrassed after hearing this, and tried to test it out, "In that case, I'll give you three hundred and sixty taels, but I don't want the change."

Wu Mao wanted to speak up to stop him, but was stopped by Lu Tai's fierce look.

The government office is very close to here, and you can get there by riding a carriage through a few streets.

The household registration office was still there. The person who handled the household registration last time saw Tong Wenyao coming and quickly stood up and greeted her, "Miss, you are here."

Tong Wenyao saw that it was the person who handled her household registration last time, and she quickly said, "Uncle Da, let's sign the paperwork."

After hearing this, Uncle Da paused holding the pen and asked, "I wonder where this house is?"

Xing'er said from the side, "It's the house on Rudong Street."

"But the Mo family's house?" Tong Wenyao shook her head and smiled, "No, it's the house next to the Mo family's. Lu Tai said that house is nice and quiet, so he asked me to buy that house."

After Uncle Da heard which house it was, he raised his voice and said, "Nonsense! That house is not habitable and is often haunted. How could you introduce it to her?" Uncle Da asked with a little anger on his face.

Tong Wenyao's face was full of innocence at this moment. She covered her mouth in shock and said, "Is that house haunted? Ah! Xing'er, let's not buy the house."

She hid in Xing Er's arms and said with a hint of grievance, "How could you hide it from me? If it weren't for Uncle Da, I'm afraid I would have signed it in a daze today."

Uncle Da saw Tong Wenyao so aggrieved, and suddenly became angry, "Lu Tai! You are immoral, I will tell your boss, get out of here!"

After hearing this, Lu Tai's tone softened instantly. "I forgot to tell her. It's my fault. Please don't tell our shopkeeper."

When Tong Wenyao heard what Lu Tai said, she sobbed a little and said, "I heard that this person was kind, so I chose him. I didn't expect that he would trick me into signing."

Uncle Da glanced at Tong Wenyao, his eyes welling up. He had never had a daughter in his life, and he had hoped day and night that his wife would give birth to a daughter. Unexpectedly, she gave birth to three boys. Until now, not having a daughter has always been a regret in his heart. At this moment, Tong Wenyao looked cute and lovable. He felt in his heart that even if it was her fault, he would blame it on Lu Tai! What's more, this had nothing to do with Yao'er!

"Lu Tai, you've been caught in this act of deception. If I let you off, I'll be embarrassed. I'll talk to your boss in person, and you'll have to take care of yourself."

After hearing this, Lu Tai's forehead was sweating, and his mind was spinning rapidly. "Master, this matter has nothing to do with me. I just took over my apprentice's hand. He asked me to bring these two people to sign the documents."

Seeing the turn of events, Uncle Da raised an eyebrow, "Oh, if that's the case, why isn't your apprentice here?"

Lu Tai said, "My apprentice is just outside the door. He received the two of them. I don't know why he didn't explain it clearly to the young lady."

After saying that, he bowed and continued, "Master, I'll go out and get him in." After saying that, he trotted out and pulled Wu Mao in.

Wu Mao didn't expect that he would be the one to sign the document. He originally thought that the order would be snatched away by his master, but unexpectedly, it came back to him.

Tong Wenyao glanced at Lu Tai and said, "If it wasn't Lu Tai's order, how did you just snatch it from your apprentice?"

Xing Er said from the side, "Master, you're not ashamed to be snatching your apprentice's order! Fortunately, my young lady is generous enough to not make a fuss and is willing to continue signing the documents with you!"

Uncle Da also understood at this time that she wanted to vent her anger on this young man!

Seeing this, Uncle Tat agreed with Xing Er and said, "In that case, then the order will still be in this young man's name, and the commission will also be given to him."

After hearing this, Lu Tai could only grit his teeth and smile, "As it should be, as it should be. I am also confused because of my age. I forgot to ask him to sign. I thought he was not proficient in the business, so I accompanied him."

Uncle Da sneered and said, "This guy comes to the yamen relatively seldom, but you come quite often. Could it be that you were the one who snatched all the orders from the apprentice in the past?"

Lu Tai forced a smile and said, "No, it was all luck before, haha."

After signing with Wu Mao, Tong Wenyao put the deed into a bag, actually putting it into the space. In front of everyone, Tong Wenyao gave the silver to Wu Mao. Uncle Da said, "Keep the money safe. If someone steals your order in the future, tell us. Our government handles this kind of unfairness!"

After hearing this, Wu Mao bowed solemnly to Uncle Da and Tong Wenyao, "Thank you, Master, and thank you, Miss Tong."

After Wu Mao left, Tong Wenyao thanked Uncle Da, "Thank you for your help just now, Uncle Da. There are some fruits in the carriage. If you don't mind, I'll ask Xing'er to get them for you to try."

Uncle Da waved his hand and said, "I also don't stand the big bullying the small. If I see it, I will help if I can."

Since the young lady mentioned the fruits on the carriage, Xing Er hurried out to get them back.

"Uncle Da, please accept it. This is a small gift from me." After putting the Portuguese tarts and pears on the table, Tong Wen Yao took Xing'er away.

Uncle Da took a look at the fresh fruits on the table and felt very happy. Two days ago, the county magistrate took a bunch of Portuguese tarts to distribute to the brothers in the yamen. He also tasted two of them himself. He still wants to eat them after seeing the taste. He didn't expect that the Tong family, who were friends with the county magistrate, also had Portuguese tarts, and they gave him two bunches of Portuguese tarts and three pears at once.

He put the pear into the bag he brought, and then put a bunch of Portuguese tarts in it, and then asked someone to take the other bunch of Portuguese tarts to wash.

After receiving the washed Portuguese tarts, seeing his subordinate's greedy look, Uncle Da took off half of it and handed it to him, saying, "Take it, greedy guy!"

"Hehehe, as long as there's food, you can ask me to do anything."

Uncle Da hooked his finger and motioned him to come over.

"Go to Le'anfang and look for..."

"Okay, I'll make sure to complete the task."

He happily took the Portuguese tart and took it out to share with his brothers.

Here, Tong Wen Yao drove a carriage around the city and bought almost everything she needed for the New Year. Thinking of the pills she sent to Prince Pei last time, she hadn't asked about the situation in the capital during this period of time, so she decided to go to Yiqing Pavilion to ask.
