"About a month, maybe two months at most." Bei Yutang replied.
Aunt Xu was stunned. "Oh, such a short time. I wonder if they will rent it. I heard they are planning to sell the courtyard. I guess the price will be quite high for such a short time."
Aunt Xu looked at what the mother and son were wearing and didn't look like they were from a wealthy family.
"If it's expensive, there's nothing we can do about it." Bei Yutang said helplessly.
Aunt Xu wanted to ask her the reason, but they were not familiar with each other yet, so she was embarrassed to ask about other people's private affairs.
Aunt Xu looked at little Zimo and said with a smile, "You look so handsome, just like the dolls in the New Year pictures, so beautiful. This child should look like his father, right?"
Although it was a question, her tone was full of certainty.
Bei Yutang had lost two of her baby bumps, but she was still a bit plump. Her previously round face had become much prettier after she lost weight, and with the Ice Skin Cream, she was completely transformed.
Compared with the previous Mu Zhitao, she is now completely different. But even so, she is still far inferior to Xiao Zimo's fair and tender, delicate facial features.
His features and eyebrows are quite different from those of the original owner, Mu Zhitao, and it is almost impossible to find any similarities between the two.
Bei Yutang thought about the appearance of the original owner Mu Zhitao's husband, but unfortunately, in Mu Zhitao's fragmented memories, there was no memory of her short-lived husband at all.
"Yes." Bei Yutang replied with a smile.
During their conversation, I arrived without realizing it.
Aunt Xu knocked on the door next door, and soon an old man opened the door. His suspicious eyes swept over Bei Yutang and Xiao Zimo, and finally stopped on Aunt Xu.
"Auntie Xu, is there anything wrong?" asked the old gatekeeper.
"This girl wants to rent a house. This house is empty. Can you see if you can rent it to the mother and son?" asked Aunt Xu.
The old man turned to look at Bei Yutang, looking her up and down, "How long do you want to rent it for?"
"Between one and two months."
The old man frowned slightly, obviously not very satisfied with the time she rented.
Bei Yutang thought it was probably a no-go, but the old man continued, "If you rent it short-term, the price will be better. Two taels of silver a month, do you want to rent it?"
When Aunt Xu heard the price, her eyes widened and she exclaimed, "Uncle Wang, your price is too high."
Two taels of silver is not a small sum of money for an ordinary family.
One tael of silver could support a family of four or five people for three months.
Two taels of silver this month is really expensive.
Although Bei Yutang was rich, he still saved as much as he could. "Uncle Wang, do you think one tael and five hundred wen would be okay?"
Aunt Xu still felt the price was high, but since everyone else had said so, she naturally offered some support, saying, "Look, it's not easy for them to raise a child, so just rent it to them at a lower price. This room is empty, and it's vacant anyway."
Uncle Wang thought about it and nodded in agreement. "Okay then. One tael and five hundred coins a month. Not a penny less."
"Can."
After Bei Yutang and Wang Bo signed the lease agreement, Bei Yutang brought Xiao Zimo back to the inn.
The next day, Bei Yutang arrived at the courtyard they rented early in the morning and led the horse into the yard.
