After the brokerage firm learned about their general needs, they immediately took the women to see the courtyards that they thought were suitable.
Tang Baozhu sat inside the carriage, feeling the bustling streets pass by, and then the noise outside gradually subsided as the carriage passed through the area.
There was no sound outside until the only sound was the clatter of a carriage passing by, so they must be arriving soon.
"We've arrived at the place. Would the host like to come down and take a look? See if you're satisfied with this place."
The brokerage manager led everyone directly to a vermilion gate and then tentatively asked if the master wanted to go and take a look.
After all, for them, the decision to buy a house is ultimately made by the host family. Even if the host family trusts a person who is just a driver, they still can't make up their mind.
Upon hearing that they had arrived at their destination, Tang Baozhu immediately got out of the carriage.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment when such a beautiful lady stepped out of the carriage. Fortunately, he knew his current identity and quickly regained his composure.
Looking at the large red gate in front of me, and not seeing the two stone lions in front of it, I knew it wasn't an official's residence. I was quite satisfied that I could buy it.
If there are stone lions in front of a mansion, then it is not a place for ordinary people like them to live; only officials can live there.
"Please, shopkeeper, open the door so we can take a look. We need to see the details before we can make any decisions."
“Madam is right. We definitely need to see it before making a decision. If you are not satisfied, we can go see the next one.”
Tang Baozhu first looked outside. At this moment, everyone was standing on a long street. It was clear that the people living on this street were all wealthy, because there were no ordinary people walking around.
You can even see from afar that there are two servants guarding the door of the neighbor's house next door.
I feel that there shouldn't be any safety issues living here; the rest depends on whether I'm satisfied with the accommodations.
The shopkeeper opened the door and pushed it hard to open both doors. It was clear that the two doors were made of good materials, otherwise they wouldn't be so heavy.
After Tang Baozhu and her group went inside, they found that there was a wall blocking their view of the door, and the wall was carved with various patterns.
You have to go around the wall to see the house in front. After walking about twenty or thirty meters, you will reach the first house.
The first room I entered was very tall and spacious. I felt that this should be the main house in the front yard for receiving guests. Besides the living room and study, there were a few other rooms, but I didn't know what they were used for.
After a quick look, I went straight to the back. As soon as I entered the back, I saw a small garden, in front of the second courtyard and behind the first courtyard. It was about an acre in size.
At this time, apart from the cold-resistant and drought-resistant trees, all the trees in the small garden that needed frequent watering had withered.
I walked over and wandered around inside. Unexpectedly, there was a small ditch in the middle, and the water flowing inside seemed to be running water.
Occasionally, you can even see a small carp swimming in the water.
Seeing this, Tang Baozhu was already very satisfied. It had a garden and water, and the water was even running water. As long as the interior wasn't too bad, she was prepared to buy the courtyard.
Tang Baozhu walked around the entire courtyard and found that it was a three-section courtyard, which should be enough for at least the number of people living there.
There's a small hut right next to the front gate; we can have the puppet sit there so it can hear anything that happens.
Tang Baozhu planned to live in the second courtyard, which happened to have a small garden in front that she liked. She would take a stroll in the garden when she had nothing to do, which was quite nice.
Xiao Bao also moved into the second courtyard with her, so that she could at least urge him to study and practice martial arts more. As for the other 16 children, she could just let them live in the third courtyard.
After deciding to buy the courtyard, Tang Baozhu didn't waste any time and directly sent the puppet to the government office to complete the transfer procedures.
As for the courtyard being a bit pricey, Tang Baozhu didn't care, since the gold and silver in the space were the least valuable things anyway.
In front of the shopkeeper, he pretended to take a box of gold out of the carriage and handed it directly to the puppet, instructing him to complete the transfer procedures and obtain the deed at the yamen before giving the silver to the shopkeeper.
As for Tang Baozhu and the children, they decided not to leave and simply waited there.
When the puppet comes back, also ask him to buy some toiletries, pots and pans, and blankets. With these things, he can cook his own meals in the yard instead of having to go out for lunch.
Just before leaving, I suddenly remembered that I shouldn't ask him to bring back a few maids, so that I wouldn't have to clean such a big courtyard myself.
Since I'm not short of money, why make things difficult for myself by doing everything myself and not enjoying any blessings? That would be too foolish.
She also told him her intentions: she only needed to buy a few maids to clean the house, and there was no need to buy any personal maids, because she planned to find an excuse to release the puppets in her space.
The puppets in the space are incredibly versatile; they can protect you, and they can also be used in the kitchen and in the living room. There's nothing more useful than them.
After the puppet left, Tang Baozhu felt she couldn't just sit idle, so when the children weren't looking, she put some brooms and rags in a corner.
Then, pretending to have found a broom, he prepared to thoroughly clean the entire yard and roughly wipe down the furniture inside the house.
Although the furniture is all very ordinary, at least there are dining tables, stools, beds, and the like.
That way, you won't have to worry about having nothing and not knowing where to sleep at night.
Despite his young age, Xiao Bao still feels sorry for his mother. He thinks it must have been very difficult for her to raise him all by herself. So when he saw her sweeping the floor, he quickly grabbed a broom and prepared to sweep the floor himself to help his mother.
The other 16 children were even more sensible. Seeing that their adoptive mother was getting ready to work, they didn't sit idle either.
Everyone was very enthusiastic, thinking that if they did more work, their wives would have to do less.
In their minds, the lady was always delicate and had never done any heavy work; all the work was done by Uncle Tang.
They were eager to do the work, but they were worried about tiring their wives out.
In front of the children, Tang Baozhu always called the puppet "Uncle Tang," which was also a way of using her own surname. This way, when the children called him, they would directly call him Uncle Tang or Grandpa Tang.
