Gu Yanzhang often has a bad premonition in his heart.
He always feels that the weather in recent years is a little abnormal.
In the summer, people will be killed by the heat.
In the winter, people will be frozen to death.
As for the spring with heavy rain, life will be even more difficult.
For future considerations, Gu Yanzhang discussed with his wife for several days. In the end, he really came up with a solution that was not a solution.
"Wife, are we really going to sell all the meat?"
Chen Xuanxuan nodded heavily.
If the pigs at home are not sold quickly, the poor ghosts in Gu Jiagang who have a very hard life will definitely eat like Gu Yufeng and his family, and their appearance will be particularly ugly.
Being lazy and greedy for enjoyment, being lazy and hating work, and being able to sit back and enjoy the fruits of one's labor without working hard...are actually human nature.
Most people will basically be lazy when they can be lazy. When they can eat delicious food, they will basically not eat bad food.
Therefore, Chen Xuanxuan sometimes feels that people without money are still too dangerous.
Now many people are eyeing her family.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows.
And the eggs are placed in the same basket.
The money her family had worked so hard to earn must not be given away for free.
...
After Gu Yanzhang had raised pigs for another month, he found an acquaintance and sold all the pigs.
He even sold those fat sows!
The buyer was Wang the butcher, who had killed many boars.
Recently, whenever Wang the butcher had a chance, he would come over with great interest to visit his daughter.
It seemed that his daughter had not done any work since she married into the Gu family.
She has never been beaten or scolded, nor has anyone set rules for her every day, and she has never been tortured... She lives a very comfortable life every day. Since she came here, the daughter of the butcher Wang has never thought about going home.
She eats better than her parents' home. She wears better clothes than her parents' home. Her mother-in-law can give her a little pocket money every month...
The daughter of the Wang family can really pat her chest and say that she has never seen a daughter-in-law live such a comfortable life since she grew up...
She was very lucky a few days ago.
Finally, there is good news.
The daughter of the Wang family has become much more coquettish since she had a child.
In the past, if she could eat a bowl of delicious braised pork, she would be happy for at least a month.
But now, she feels that her taste has changed.
The braised pork that he never tired of eating before, doesn't taste good now.
Gu Yanzhang knows what kind of person she is.
He is too lazy to say anything to her now.
If Wang the Butcher is willing to come, let him come.
Anyway, every time this man comes, she will never be short of meat, eggs, milk and so on.
...
After quietly selling all the pigs in the house, Gu Yanzhang ran to the county town without stopping and began to look for a suitable shop.
If it is a house with a shop in front and a house in the back, Gu Yanzhang will like it even more.
The price level in the county town is still very high.
A shop on the street must be based on at least 50 taels of silver.
If the family does not have this money, don't even think about settling down in the county town.
Gu Yanzhang does not have much money on hand.
After selling everything that could be sold at home, he only had fifty-two taels of silver on hand.
The house itself, the middleman's introduction fee, ... as well as the signing of the house sale contract and the registration at the county government, all cost money.
Even if he didn't give money at the time, once he owed a favor, there would be too many things to repay in the future.
Gu Yanzhang didn't want to owe favors to others. So, he racked his brains and inquired from all sides. In the end, he really liked an old house facing the street.
This house has a long history.
From a distance, it looked like it was about to be corroded.
When he got closer, Gu Yanzhang immediately found that this blackened old house was almost completely eaten away by termites.
After some fierce bargaining, Gu Yanzhang finally bought the small house for fifty taels of silver and two taels of deed tax.
After buying the house in the county, Gu Yanzhang felt relieved.
He returned home calmly.
He told his wife that he had bought the house in the county. He did not mention it to other people in the family. They were all kept in the dark.
Thinking of his wife always telling him that the family had saved money, they must not hide all the money at home.
Otherwise, it would be easy to be targeted by thieves.
Chen Xuanxuan looked at the red deed in front of her and was very happy.
This is a typical proof of real estate!
Since it was the first time she had seen such a thing, Chen Xuanxuan held the deed and read it over and over again.
After memorizing every word on it, she was still thinking to herself that she didn't know when she would be able to recognize all the words here.
Chen Xuanxuan sometimes thought about it.
It felt that writing was not difficult at all.
Chen Xuanxuan decided that if she really had any chance in the future, she must study hard. She had had enough of this illiterate life without knowing big words.
...
When Chen Xuanxuan went to bed tonight, she carefully placed the red deed under the pillow at the head of the bed, with a rosy glow on her face.
She said to Gu Yanzhang cheerfully, "Boss, you promised me. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the county town to have a look."
Gu Yanzhang saw her overjoyed look and laughed in his heart. He nodded seriously and said with a smile, "Of course."
"When have I not done what I promised you?"
Chen Xuanxuan listened and looked at him with a smile.
After the two talked in a low voice for a while, they soon fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Chen Xuanxuan opened her eyes, and Gu Yanzhang was already urging her in a low voice, "Wife, you have to get up quickly."
"We have to go to the county town today to see our new home."
For a new home, a new house, and new clothes, some sentimental women always have an inexplicable sense of expectation.
After Chen Xuanxuan got on the donkey cart, she couldn't wait to ask, "Boss, after we look at the house today, we have to go see Captain Huang."
"By the way,...Boss, do you feel that the weather outside seems to be getting hotter and hotter?"
Gu Yanzhang raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. It was really hot, so he replied weakly, "Yeah. The weather is really hot."
"But you'll get used to it."
After the two arrived at the county town, Gu Yanzhang drove the donkey cart straight to his house.
After arriving at the place, Chen Xuanxuan was pulled down by Gu Yanzhang's hand.
