The sturdy peasant girl in space

Chapter 159 Buying a House
Early the next morning, Bai Jingwen asked An Yi to go out and invite the two homeowners to his own room in the inn, while she waited in the inn to nurse Zhuang Zhuang.

As for Chunxi and Ruyi, they were in their room discussing what to buy after going out on the street.

"Young Madam, they are all here." An Yi suddenly knocked on the door and shouted.

"You entertain them first, and I'll come over right away." Bai Jingwen said that she put Zhuang Zhuang, who was sleeping soundly, on the bed, looked herself up and down through the mirror to make sure there was nothing wrong before going out, and called Ruyi and the two over to watch Looking at Zhuang Zhuang, he walked into An Yi's room.

When Bai Jingwen entered the room, she saw An Yi and the two homeowners sitting there quietly drinking tea. Only then did she understand why their group of dark guards chose the youngest An Qi as the team leader.

"Surely this is Mrs. Qi, right?" At the same time, the handsome nobleman who was facing the door, wearing a luxurious dress and looking like a book, asked in surprise when he saw her.

There was someone with Anyi's skill in the family, so he thought it would be a disciple of that big family who came to settle here.

In the end, seeing Bai Jingwen, who was plainly dressed, heroic, and straight as a pine, completely subverted his definition of the word young lady. It seemed that it was not unreasonable for the Yan family to seek her cooperation.

"Master Qiao has good eyesight." Bai Jingwen stepped forward, smiled and nodded, and then sat across from him.

"Hello Mr. Zhou." Bai Jingwen turned her head and greeted the scholar sitting next to her.

Mr. Zhou just nodded politely and said nothing.

"I think big brother has already told you what I mean. I will pay the lowest price you said. If there is no objection, we can go to the Yamen to transfer ownership right now." Bai Jingwen saw that he was bored and didn't care. Then he spoke.

"Okay." The two replied at the same time.

"In this case, I would like to ask when you can hand over the house?"

"If you transfer the ownership to me today, I can hand over the house the day after tomorrow." Master Qiao pondered. Although he was in a hurry to leave, there were too many things in the house and it would take at least two days to deal with them.

"Let's set it on the same day." Mr. Zhou replied with narrowed eyes.

"Okay, then wait a moment and I'll get the money and household registration." Bai Jingwen stood up and walked out after speaking.

In order to make it quicker, Bai Jingwen asked An Yi to give five taels of silver to the steward of the county government office, and soon got two houses.

As soon as Bai Jingwen returned to the inn with An, she saw Qi Ruyi standing at the door and looking around anxiously.

"What's the matter?" Bai Jingwen stepped forward and asked anxiously, how could she feel at ease with two girls and one milk baby, which is why she would rather pay the money and transfer the ownership quickly and come back earlier.

"Sister-in-law is back, but the shopkeeper wants to drive us away?" Qi Ruyi said with a sigh of relief while grabbing her.

"What's going on?" Bai Jingwen asked after entering the door to meet the shopkeeper.

"Madam, you should find another place. The county is going to come to a big man today, and I have no choice but to take over our entire inn." The shopkeeper bowed his hand apologetically.

"Who made such a big show?" Bai Jingwen asked after sitting down.

"I heard that the concubine chosen this spring is going back to her hometown to visit relatives. I don't know the specifics of passing by here." The shopkeeper said softly.

"That's it, brother, go and put on the carriage. It just so happens that our business is almost done, so we'd better go back early." After Bai Jingwen finished speaking, she took Ruyi upstairs. Go home early as well.

After the aunt and sister-in-law went upstairs, they simply packed their luggage, settled the bill and went out to get on the carriage.

"Is there anything you particularly want to buy? Time is limited, so think about it carefully." Bai Jingwen sat in the carriage and asked Qi Ruyi and Chunxi.

"Sister-in-law, shall we go back now?" Qi Ruyi said dejectedly, she hasn't had a good time in the county this time.

"What's the rush, the house will be taken over in a few days and you can come and finish it." Bai Jingwen comforted her by rubbing her head.

"Really, I remember my second brother said that Ma's fruit wood roast duck and Xu Ji's dim sum are good, let's buy some back." Qi Ruyi looked at her with bright eyes and said.

"Okay, let's go tell your brother first, so that he won't be found when he comes out." After Bai Jingwen finished speaking, she told An Yi who was driving the car.

After shopping, the group looked at the early morning and thought about rushing to the town for lunch.

As a result, as soon as they arrived at the gate of the city, they saw a gorgeous motorcade coming in and had to wait aside. What Bai Jingwen didn't know was that they gave way wisely today, and they would still meet in the future.

"This should be the concubine that the innkeeper mentioned. She's so grand, it seems that she should be very favored." Chunxi said enviously when she saw the scene outside through the window.

"Brother, does the elder brother know that she is the young lady of that family?" Bai Jingwen asked curiously after taking a look at the woman's temperament, which should be that of a lady.

"If I remember correctly, she is Huang Yingying, the daughter-in-law of the prefect of Qingzhou Prefecture. She should have come back from a boat. Today, she will rest here and go home tomorrow." An Yi said.

"I see." Bai Jingwen nodded knowingly, no matter how much the emperor was elected, he would not choose a plain village woman as his concubine.

"Let's go." Bai Jingwen said to An Yi after seeing the motorcade passing by.

"Drive." Dark shook his whip and the horse started to walk slowly.

The group arrived in the town after dinner, Bai Jingwen originally planned to see how the children trained by Xiao Yuer were doing, but Zhuang Zhuang fell asleep and had to give up and walk back.

When passing by an alley, a father and daughter suddenly rushed out to block the road, and the woman fell to the ground and cried: "Father, please, don't sell me to that kind of place, I believe Brother Qiang will come back soon of."
