Chapter 5 Buying a house and starting a new life in ancient times
Cheng Shuyi's neck was shallowly scratched by Pei Yanli's sword.
She has taken medicine.
But because the injury was not serious, there was no need for bandaging and it was just left there.
When the two children saw that she was injured, they surrounded her and cried their hearts out.
"Shuyi, does it hurt?"
"Shuyi, I'm sorry, I failed to protect you and your sister."
"Brother, let's go! Let's go find Dad and let him vent his anger on Shuyi!"
My sister held Cheng Shuyi's hand, her big watery eyes red from crying.
His face was covered with tears.
As she said that, she was about to pull her brother, who was as tall as her, out to find Pei Yanli.
Anyway, they went to Daddy's house yesterday and knew where Daddy's house was.
This is what your father did...
Cheng Shuyi complained in his heart and stopped the two little brats.
"Qiqi Xuxu, come back soon. I'm fine. I was scratched by a wild cat last night, but it doesn't hurt anymore."
She diverted the two children's attention and said, "Let's go downstairs and have breakfast. After that, we'll go for a boat ride on the lake, okay?"
The two little ones didn't buy it at all.
The topic turned back to recognizing the father.
"Shuyi, aren't we going to see dad today?" asked the younger sister with sobs.
Cheng Shuyi squatted down and wiped the little girl's tears.
I remembered that Pei Yanli came and left last night, and he looked indifferent to the two children without a word of concern.
She was so heartbroken.
Does she want her to tell the two children directly that their biological father refuses to recognize them?
Just when Cheng Shuyi didn't know how to respond to her sister's words, the waiter knocked on the door.
"Sir, someone is looking for you downstairs. They say they are from the dental clinic."
“Here I come!”
Cheng Shuyi responded to the waiter outside the door.
He turned around and looked at the two children happily, "Qi Qi Xu Xu, we are not going to look for dad today, we are moving to a new house today!"
We’ll talk about that scumbag dad later.
In ancient times, the most important things were to have stability, settle down, survive, and go to school.
The owner of the pawnshop had abundant resources and found several houses that met Cheng Shuyi's requirements in just one night.
He also arranged a carriage and took the mother and her two children to see the house one by one.
Comprehensively consider the advantages and disadvantages of several houses.
Cheng Shuyi finally chose this house in Pingxi Lane.
Although this house is just a simple courtyard house, it is separated from the White Horse Academy by an alley.
It only takes half an incense stick of walk to get there.
Standing at the door and looking to the left, Cheng Shuyi could even see the gate of Baima Academy.
Changsheng Street is to the right of the gate.
Their house is four houses away from Changsheng Street.
Ancient houses were large, and the distance between the four houses was a full 500 meters.
But it's also good this way, far from the street, relatively quiet.
The most important thing is that Pingxi Lane and Qingyun Lane are only separated by two alleys.
This is considered the outer circle of the residences of the powerful and wealthy in the capital, and those living around here are all lower-ranking court officials.
The environment and public security are both guaranteed.
After leaving the pawnshop yesterday, Cheng Shuyi went to the pawnshop and exchanged his gold and silver bracelets for a lot of intact silver ingots and silver bills.
It cost her more than three hundred taels to buy this house.
Cheng Shuyi handed the silver note to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper Qian, please help me find a shop. I want to open a shop, preferably a big one, two stories."
When Qian Ming saw that there was still business, he immediately smiled and agreed repeatedly.
"Don't worry, Madam. I will definitely get it done for you!"
He turned and walked towards the main gate. "Regarding the transfer of the house deeds, once my wife has her household registration, I will go to the government office to help you. Please stay."
The pawnshop handled the matter properly, so Cheng Shuyi didn't have to go to the government office in person.
She was very satisfied with this.
But where can she go to register her household registration?
Let's take it one step at a time.
Cheng Shuyi closed the door and led the two children in. "Qiqi Xuxu, let's go and see the room!"
This courtyard faces south, with the main hall on the north, wing rooms on the east and west sides, and a large yellow mud yard in the middle.
The kitchen and woodshed are connected together, next to the west wing.
There was nothing in the room except a few old tables and chairs left by the previous owner.
"Qi Qi Xu Xu, do you still want to sleep in bunk beds? Or do you want to each have your own room?"
In modern times, two children sleep in one bedroom, and the wooden bunk beds are still in the space.
If they continue to sleep in one room, the bed in the space can still be used.
The younger sister secretly took her brother's hand and whispered, "Brother, I'm afraid to sleep alone."
Her brother couldn't bear to see her like this.
He looked up and said to Cheng Shuyi, "Shuyi, I still live in the same room with my sister."
"Then let's clean the room together. Once it's clean, I'll move the bed out for you."
They didn't live here long anyway.
When the two children return to their ancestral home, they will have their own house and servants in the Regent's Palace.
"Then we'll live on the east side, and I'll sleep next to you."
The west wing occupies an entire room because it is adjacent to the kitchen and woodshed.
There are two complete rooms in the east wing.
Just as the mother and her two children were about to go out to buy cleaning supplies, two maids came to the door.
They said they were sent by the pawnbroker to help clean the house.
It is a complimentary service.
Cheng Shuyi gladly accepted and asked them to go back to the house and get busy first.
She took her two children to the street to buy bed curtains, bamboo mats, wooden barrels, pots and pans, and other items.
Start their new life in ancient times!
