Chapter 2472 Greenhouse 1
The house has two courtyards. Old Lady Liu left the main courtyard to Bai Shan and his family as their new home. It is now being decorated and all the furniture inside needs to be replaced with new ones. Old Lady Liu and Zheng chose to live in the two front rooms to avoid making them feel uncomfortable living with them in the second courtyard.
Manbao turned around and sighed, "It's fine for the two of us to live here, but it's really inconvenient to bring Grandma Liu and Aunt Zheng with us."
It’s still nice to be alone in a yard, and no one will know if I stay up late at night reading.
Bai Shan thought the same and took her to see the main house. "Grandmother said that this house will not be rented out in the future. It will be left for us to live in. Even if we move out in the future, we can leave someone here to take care of it so that it won't be abandoned."
In fact, Mrs. Liu's original words were, "If you and your wife have a fight and have nowhere to go, you can come back here and stay for two days to calm down before going back."
Bai Shan naturally didn't think that she would fight and quarrel with Zhou Man to the point of running away from home, so she told Manbao a different story.
Manbao was very happy, especially when he saw that the soil in the garden behind looked quite fertile.
That's great. In the future, she can often buy all kinds of rare and exotic flowers from the mall and plant them. After they bloom for a season, she can see what they look like. If she doesn't like them anymore, she can just dig them up and burn them. She doesn't have to worry as much as she does in a big garden at home.
The more Manbao thought about it, the more he liked it. He said to Bai Shan, "We don't need so many rooms. We just need a doorman to look after the house and clean the rooms occasionally. We can take care of the backyard ourselves."
Manbao paused and added, "As long as we still live in the capital."
Bai Shan understood and nodded, "Okay, I'll ask Grandmother to choose a loyal couple to come and guard the place."
Manbao asked quietly, "Is this yard really for the two of us? Grandma Liu and Aunt Zheng should still live on my side, right?"
Bai Shan couldn't help laughing, "Yes, since you said so, and my father-in-law has repeatedly asked me to stay, that side is spacious, so of course I'll live there."
Manbao became excited and whispered, "It's the season for chrysanthemums. I'm going to buy a few pots of chrysanthemums. I saw a chrysanthemum tree last time. It was as tall as a person and it was a huge clump. The flowers had six different colors, some pure, some mixed with two or three colors. They were all double-petaled and had large, beautiful flowers."
It was just too exotic, so she could only admire it in the mall and didn't dare to buy it. The seller did say he could cut it for her and put it in a box and send it to her, but she liked the look of a whole, fresh plant. If she only wanted the flowers, there were single chrysanthemums available.
If she had a yard of her own, she could buy everything she wanted. It wasn't very expensive anyway.
As for points, she still accumulated quite a lot.
Bai Shan understood her thoughts after hearing her description, so after a moment of thought, he said, "I'll talk to my grandmother."
The two of them gathered in the main room, while Bai Erlang and his companions entered through the main gate. They came all the way here in a bustling atmosphere, and just as they entered the second courtyard, they couldn't find anyone and shouted loudly, "Bai Shan, Bai Shan, where are you?"
Bai Shan opened the window.
Bai Erlang was startled by the noise of him opening the window. Seeing Manbao standing beside him with a bright red face, he looked suspicious and asked, "What are you doing in the room?"
Bai Dalang, who had only glanced at the two of them before looking away, reached out and patted him on the head, almost knocking him to the ground. "Don't you know that you shouldn't say anything inappropriate?"
Bai Erlang felt very aggrieved, "I didn't say anything."
Yin Huo had already turned his gaze away and changed the subject, saying, "This courtyard is quite nice, with excellent lighting."
Bai Erlang rubbed his head and said, "The light is good, but the environment is not as good as my eldest brother's courtyard. There is a tree in my eldest brother's second courtyard. We used to read and play chess under the tree to enjoy the coolness. Here it's bare, there is nothing."
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Grandma said that we should open a flower bed on both sides and buy some flowers and plants."
He turned to Manbao and said, "Don't you like plum blossoms? We can plant plum trees on both sides."
Manbao's eyes lit up and he said, "Actually, I also like peach blossoms and apricot blossoms. Hmm, pomegranate blossoms are nice too."
Bai Shan laughed heartily and said, "That's not difficult. There's a yard at the back. We can plant some crops along the roadside. As for the rest of the land, we can plant whatever you want."
Manbao became happy, his heart was filled with joy, and the blush on his face, which had not yet faded, became even redder.
Bai Jilang couldn't understand. Was he so happy?
Doesn't she have a big garden? Isn't it enough for her to build?
Bai Dalang followed them around and looked around, then said to Bai Shan, "If you guys live here, we can come visit you often and have some free meals."
Bai Erlang complained, "Forget it, you all live over there. Wouldn't it be more convenient to visit from one courtyard to another?"
At this point, Bai Erlang was a little surprised to see that Bai Shan did not refute his elder brother's words, "No way, you want to move out?"
Bai Shan coughed lightly and said, "It's not necessary to move out, but it's nice to live alone for a while occasionally."
Manbao nodded repeatedly.
Bai Dalang glanced at Bai Erlang with the eyes of an experienced person and said, "You will know after you get married."
Bai Erlang looked puzzled, "What do you know? Isn't it better to live over there? The yard is not smaller than this, the room is bigger, the garden is bigger and more beautiful, and it's close to the imperial city, why should I live out here?" He thought that this house was for one-time use and should be rented out after Bai Shan's wedding.
Bai Dalang reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, "I told my father to scrape together some money and buy you a small courtyard in the capital."
"I don't want it," Bai Erlang said, "Just give me the money to buy a house, and I'll live in the princess's mansion."
Speaking of the Princess's Mansion, Bai Erlang excitedly said to Manbao, "The Ministry of Works has almost finished building the Princess's Mansion in Mingda. I took a look inside when I passed by last time. It's beautiful, even more beautiful than your house."
Bai Shan said, "You should ask your cousin to buy you a small house. If there are any houses for sale in Changqing Lane, buy one here. If not, somewhere nearby will also do."
Even Liu Huan nodded, "That's right, that's right. If my house wasn't so big, I would actually like to buy a yard and live in it myself."
Yin Huo said modestly, "The mansion His Majesty gave me has been renovated. I've already moved my things in, but I can stay outside occasionally. If you like, you can come visit me."
Manbao and the others perked up and asked, "Do you live alone?"
Yin Huo nodded. "There are only a few servants, but I personally selected them. They are quiet and won't interfere with us."
Except for Bai Jilang, everyone else looked at him with envy.
Bai Shan asked, "Why don't you invite us to the warming room?"
Yin Huo was stunned. "You still need to warm the house?"
See you at 6pm
