I hadn't expected that real estate transactions in ancient times would have been expensive. "Okay, is there a relatively well-renovated, second-story house near the Xishui County Academy?"
Zhou Shen glanced at Su Ningjie and realized that this was another mother who forced her child to pursue a career in politics.
"There really is a courtyard like this, but the rent is a bit expensive, fifty taels of silver a year."
Xiao Lingyu said, "Okay, bring all the relevant documents. If we're satisfied, we'll rent it today."
Zhou Shen smiled and said, "Madam, you will definitely like it after reading it."
After half an incense stick.
Su Ning'an followed Su Ningjie, holding the sleepy little Xi'er, and wandered around the "Qixia Cottage" curiously.
"Madam Su, this place is just across the street from Yunqi Academy. The studio, bookshop, teahouse, etc. are all relatively close here. Do you think this is okay?"
Xiao Lingyu didn't expect that this two-story courtyard was bigger than the three-story courtyard. The green plants in the courtyard seemed to be always cleaned, and the windows and furniture were spotless.
"Did the owner of the yard just vacate it recently?"
"It's been empty for a long time. The owner's servants come to clean it up every now and then. The owner has only one request: that the tenants take good care of every plant and tree in the yard."
Xiao Lingyu said proudly, "No problem, I'll rent it for three years at once."
Zhou Shen was a little embarrassed. "The owner rents it out for a year. If they want to rent it to you next year, they'll have to send someone to take a look. If they like it, they'll rent it to you for free."

"Mom, Mom, this yard is so big, shall we rent it?"
Xiao Xier ran out with her short legs, "Mom, there are many beautiful flowers growing in the back. I like it here."
Xiao Lingyu lowered his eyes and looked at the cute little Xier, and said softly, "Okay, we'll rent this place."
Zhou Shen took the fifty taels of silver and five taels of ya coins, then smiled and handed over the lease documents and keys. "Madam Su, you can stay here today. I'll be leaving now."
After saying goodbye, Zhou Shen returned the way he came, looking back from time to time.
Seeing Xiao Lingyu leading Xiao Xier into the yard, he turned around and headed straight for the teahouse 300 meters away diagonally opposite.
