Chapter 58 Looking at the house

Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing said a few words in the yard and then returned to the house. Lying on the bed, she began to think about setting up an embroidery training institution to teach women in this era embroidery skills.

This is not like her previous teaching of embroidery in the village. She can just teach it in the Ye family yard. If she wants to do this, she must have a place first.

A courtyard in the county town can be purchased for just under one hundred taels, and if it is better, it will not exceed two hundred taels.

She now has almost a thousand taels of silver in her hands. It would be enough to buy a one- or two-in yard in the county town. However, it would be troublesome to go from Xiyao Village to the county town every day. If she puts this embroidery training institution in County town, it is best to live in the county town in the future.

But she still needs to discuss this matter with Ye Ximing and Zhang.

However, what Zhou Ran didn't expect was that before she told Ye Ximing about going to the county seat, Ye Ximing found her first to talk about it.

"I promised Mr. Zou before that I would become my teacher if he gets well. Now that my health is almost recovered, I'm thinking of going to Mr. Zou's house in the next few days to officially become my teacher. "

Zhou Ran nodded, "Okay."

Ye Ximing looked at Zhou Ran and said, "If I become a disciple of Mr. Zou, I will definitely study with him, and I may need to live in the county."

Zhou Ran's eyes lit up when he heard this. Ye Ximing looked at her, made up his mind, and continued: "I want to rent a small courtyard in the county. Are you willing to live with me in the county?"

"Okay." Zhou Ran agreed happily.

Ye Ximing curled his lips and said, "Then I will go to Mr. Zou to become my apprentice, and then go to the county to find a suitable yard."

"I'll go with you when we look at the courtyard." Zhou Ran said that she could decide on the courtyard where the training institution would be held.

"Okay." Ye Ximing responded.

After saying this, Ye Ximing originally planned to go to Mr. Zou's house the next day, but when he woke up early in the morning, it started to rain outside. Ye Ximing had to postpone it for another day and went to Mr. Zou's house on the third day.

Ye Ximing was originally a student that Mr. Zou valued, so it went very smoothly to become his teacher.

But what surprised Ye Ximing was that he actually met Fei Nanxing at Mr. Zou's place.

Mr. Zou introduced Ye Ximing: "This is Fei Nanxing, Mr. Fei's apprentice. You should know Ximing, right?"

Ye Ximing nodded, "I've met him once before."

"Mr. Fei helped my wife treat an old illness two days ago. In return, I taught his apprentice for a period of time."

When Mr. Fei raised this matter, Mr. Zou was stunned. He didn't know medical skills, so how could he teach Mr. Fei's apprentices.

Later, he understood from Mr. Fei's words that although Fei Nanxing was Mr. Fei's apprentice, he had no talent in studying medicine. Instead, he was more talented in reading. Even without the guidance of a famous teacher, he could rely on self-study. At the age of sixteen, he was admitted as a scholar.

Fei Nanxing said that he was Mr. Fei's apprentice, but Mr. Fei had no son, and there was no difference between Fei Nanxing and Mr. Fei's son.

Although Mr. Fei seemed to dislike Fei Nanxing for not studying medicine and going to study for the imperial examination, after meeting Mr. Zou, he immediately considered asking Mr. Zou to teach Fei Nanxing to study.

After Zhou Ran heard what Ye Ximing said about this incident, she finally understood why Mr. Fei had such a good attitude when he saw Mr. Zou last time. Mr. Fei did not choose to return to his previous village, but stayed in Nanxing County. It must be for Fei Nanxing, his apprentice, right?
Ye Ximing made an agreement with Mr. Zou when he was at Zou's house before, and he would go to his house to study with him in three days, which meant that they only had three days to find a house. So they didn't delay, and the two of them went to the county town together the next day, and asked the dental staff from the dental shop about suitable yards for rent in the county town.

Yaren introduced them to four courtyards in total.

Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing decided to go take a look after listening to Yaren's introduction. The first courtyard was two alleys away from Mr. Zou's house, but the courtyard was relatively dilapidated and the house looked more like it was in disrepair. Same, of course the rent in this yard is also the cheapest.

Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing just took one look and rejected it.

Afterwards, Yaren took them to the second courtyard.

The yard is pretty good overall, but unfortunately there is no well in the yard, which would make it more troublesome to draw water.

The third yard has a well and the house is not dilapidated, but it is far away from Mr. Zou's house.

The fourth courtyard is not in a good location. Outside the alley are gambling houses and brothels. It is a mixed bag, noisy and unsafe.

Following Yaren back to Yaxing, Zhou Ran hammered her aching knees and asked Yaren: "Apart from these four courtyards, is there no one else entering the courtyard?"

"These are the only ones I rent out now. In fact, the second and third courtyards just now are quite good. You two can think about these two courtyards carefully. Although the second courtyard They say there is no well, but there is a well at the head of the alley that everyone can share."

"There is also a third yard. Although it is a little far away from the place you mentioned, it is very good in other aspects, isn't it? That's how this rental house is. There will always be more or less shortcomings. It's impossible. It’s exactly what you want.”

Ye Ximing looked at Zhou Ran and discussed with her: "Why don't we choose the third one we just looked at."

It doesn't matter if he is far away from Mr. Zou's house. He just needs to take a few more steps every day.

Zhou Ran shook her head, turned to Yaren, and asked: "Do you have any takeaways in the yard? I want one with a good location and a newer one."

Ya Ren perked up after hearing Zhou Ran's words, and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, I have exactly two courtyards that meet your requirements. How about I take you to have a look again?"

Just when Zhou Ran was about to agree, Ye Ximing glanced at her legs and said, "I'm a little tired today, and it's a little late. How about we come back tomorrow?"

Zhou Ran thought that although Ye Ximing's body had recovered, he was still relatively weak, so he nodded and agreed.

When the two returned to the village, it happened to be the usual time for everyone to chat at the entrance of the village.

Everyone looked at Zhou Ran and Ye Ximing with surprised expressions on their faces.

"Sanlang, are you in such good health?" an old man asked.

Although some people in the village have indeed been saying that Ye Ximing's health has improved during this period, Ye Ximing didn't meet anyone in the village when he went to Zou's house yesterday. He didn't go out much on weekdays. At most, he was doing activities in the yard. Many people don't believe this.

Ye Ximing smiled and nodded: "It's thanks to my wife, it's great."
