"Ah? Check out? Where are we going to stay after we check out? Are you going home this afternoon?" Lan Miao asked. She had heard the old lady say she would stay in the city for a few days, so why was she leaving so soon?
"You'll know in a moment."
Wang Yi smiled. This was to celebrate her home purchase, so it wouldn't be too much to give Silly Sister a pork elbow later.
The three of them went downstairs to check out of the room, then sat in the lobby and started ordering food.
After a while, plates of pork elbows, roast chicken, roast duck and stewed goose were served on the table one after another.
Silly Sister turned pale immediately, holding her stomach and crying bitterly.
"Auntie, why didn't you tell me to eat something good earlier? I can't eat anymore, wuwu..."
Seeing the delicious food with thick red sauce trembling in front of her, she hated it so much that she wanted to suppress her stomach right now.
Why did I eat so much at the market this morning? Now I can’t even eat a single bite of the meat on the table!
Wang Yi and Lan Miao were at a loss whether to laugh or cry when they saw her regretful look.
"It's okay. If you can't finish it, we'll pack it up and leave. You can continue eating in the evening."
It has been a long time since Wang Yi has been involved in such a big deal.
It’s a pity that the restaurant at that time had no MSG and the spices were not complete, so the taste was just so-so.
So Wang Yi took two bites of each dish, put down his chopsticks and stared out the window in a daze.
There are still many refugees on the streets.
The distinction between the refugees and the people in the city was extremely obvious. Everyone was ragged and hunched over. Even those who came to the city to work were young and strong, but they were still pale and thin, and walked unsteadily.
How much energy can such a person have to work?
There were also many people who just paid the toll, rested for a while and then left the city to the north.
Kyoto, a distant name. All the prosperous refugee families who left home wanted to go to Kyoto to try their luck.
But after traveling thousands of miles, how many of them can see the magnificent capital?
Although Wang Yi has not studied the history of previous lives, given the prevalence of previous life culture, most modern people can imagine what people in this period would face if they became refugees.
A narrow escape from death.
But if you stay where you are, you will definitely die.
Just like the Yequpo that is about to become a memory, no one knows when people will settle down there and live in peace.
Speaking of it, when the Yunze Kingdom still existed, Yeyupo was under the jurisdiction of Shengyun City.
If Prince Dingyuan could capture Shengyun City, perhaps Yequnpo could also accommodate some refugees and regain its vitality.
"Auntie, what are you thinking about?"
Wang Yi came back to his senses and smiled.
"It's nothing, eat quickly, and after you finish eating, I'll take you somewhere."
Silly Sister carried a bamboo basket, Lan Miao carried a blue cloth package, and the three of them walked along the street to the alley, and then walked to the end and came to the wooden door.
"Auntie, why are we here? It would be terrible if we were discovered."
Lan Miao still had the simplicity and timidity of a countryman, and was a little timid about the high-class courtyards of the city people and did not dare to step in.
This place is not a public area of the market, but an alley with only a few houses. There are very few outsiders here. They are all strangers and are afraid that they will be scolded and kicked out.
Wang Yi smiled and took out a long copper key from his sleeve, picked up the copper lock at the door, and opened the door in a few seconds.
"This, Auntie, this is..."
Wang Yi pushed the wooden door open with force, and the neat courtyard came into view. The courtyard was square and clean, with only a layer of fallen leaves, but it seemed extra quiet.
She looked at the yard and breathed a sigh of relief: "Lan Miao, Silly Sister, this house will be our home from now on. How is it? Do you like it?"
"ah?"
Lan Miao's expression changed from disbelief to shock, and then immediately to ecstasy.
But Silly Sister didn't feel anything, she just laughed foolishly. She could sense that Wang Yi was happy, and that was enough.
"Auntie, this place, this house, is all ours?"
"Yes. Let's go in and take a look."
Wang Yi smiled as she watched the two girls screaming and running in joyfully. Infected by Lan Miao's emotions, Silly Sister also started laughing and shouting.
They rushed from room to room, sweating profusely from running excitedly.
"No wonder Auntie asked us to check out, we have a room to live in!"
Wang Yi was still standing at the door. Her excitement had passed, so she leaned lazily against the pillar, fanning herself and watching the girls cheer.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from the alley outside the door.
Wang Yi leaned out to look and saw Zheng Yeheng's dark carriage approaching. Behind it were three carts covered with cloth, and it was unclear what they were carrying.
The carriage stopped and Zheng Yeheng lifted the curtain and jumped out.
Wang Yi frowned when he saw him: "Your Highness really has a good ear."
Wang Yi took out the notebook again and made a note of it to the housekeeper. It must have been him who told Zheng Yeheng this old gossip.
"Why, congratulations on your new home? I'm here to add some belongings to your belongings. Come on, move!"
Zheng Yeheng waved his hand, and a group of people jumped out from the three carriages behind, pulled open the cage cloth, and revealed the things in the carts.
A carved wooden bed, a rosewood wardrobe, and a huge bronze mirror polished to a shine.
In the other car, there was an octagonal table and a rocking chair.
And these things all look familiar.
"Are you moving?" Wang Yi laughed out of anger. Aren't these all things in his house?
"Anyway, all the rooms in my house are empty. You can pick any room and move your belongings in. You don't have to be too grateful to me. If you really want to thank me, how about inviting me to a housewarming party?"
Zheng Yeheng spoke to Wang Yi with a playful smile, but he could not hide the fatigue on his face.
Unable to gather funds or purchase all the military supplies, he could only do some random things to distract himself.
