The fierce wife of space

Chapter 17 Your Reward

After packing up everything, the stove made of stone was knocked down, and everyone carried their luggage on the road again, but now that they drank the broth, they felt full of strength and were in the mood to laugh.

"When we get to the town, we have to see where we can live. I don't know if there are many rentable houses in the town. If there are not many, we have to look for them separately." Gu Lizhi summed up the money on his body , Adding up, I don’t know if I can rent a house for half a month.

In this situation, the prices of houses in the town may have risen long ago, and it is more difficult to rent a house in the town. It does not cost money to buy a house in the countryside. The most important thing is that the Gu family only has a few hundred copper coins.

"When we get to the town, let's calculate the money. If it doesn't work, we can find a ruined temple to live in. Then we can go to the town to find work during the day. Bao, you are a scholar who can read and write, so you must be easy to find work." Uncle Tie's brain He didn't think much about it inside, he felt that as long as he arrived in the town, he could spend a night in a dilapidated house somewhere.

Gu Lizhi also had the same idea, but he couldn't do heavy things with his body, so he could only help others copy books, which he could do.

"Don't worry, the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's see the situation when we get to the town. If you have hands and feet, we can make money by carrying sacks." Gu Lian felt that if it didn't work, she would find work to carry sacks.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard Gu Lian's words, that's right, they really thought too much, and they would naturally think of a solution when they got to the town, besides, their luck is not particularly bad.

There are more and more fields beside the road, and sometimes villagers will come out with hoes on their shoulders. Gu Lian and the others looked at such a scene with dazed eyes, as if they hadn't seen such a scene for a long time.

After a while, the carriage stopped. Gu Lian and the others stretched their necks and looked forward. Although the mottled city walls were not very high, the words Crescent Town were indeed written in the middle.

"Father, this is Xinyue Town, it feels a bit different!" Gu Lian felt that this Xinyue Town seemed a bit broken, and it looked like a village.

Gu Lizhi carefully looked at the words above and found that there were no mistakes in the words, but the town in his previous impression had changed somewhat.

"Father hasn't been here for many years. I know it's because I passed here for the exam. After so many years, there must be some changes. It's all right. It's quiet here, and there are no refugees. It will definitely be stable here. down."

Everyone was persuaded by Gu Lizhi's words, and they also felt in their hearts that they might not have been here for too many years, so the changes here are a bit big.

Li Rongtai in the carriage also heard the words outside, he didn't lift the curtain, but just said: "Miss Gu, come forward."

Gu Lian stepped forward and paused for a while, then was recruited into the carriage. Li Rongtai, who was sitting in the carriage, could really see her appearance clearly. She couldn't be called a beauty, but she always felt soft when looking at her face. , just like the feeling of holding a cat, those round eyes seem to be full of smiles all the time.

"This is your reward, it's not much, it's enough for you." She put ten taels of silver into her palm.

Gu Lian also didn't complain in her heart, the money was a little less, she felt that this young man did things very properly, as expected, the people cultivated in the big family were different.

"Thank you son, thank you."

"Don't you think I don't give too much?" Li Rongtai's eyes were just a slight glance, and all eyes were focused on him.

"How can we give less? We are newcomers. If you give too much money, your life may not be saved if someone sees it. Ten taels of silver is just right. Besides, the young master brought us here to protect our lives. En has already offset the previous favors, and if I think less, then I am a wolf-hearted dog." Gu Lian straightened her body and answered seriously.

Li Rongtai never liked to explain these words out of her mouth by accident, but she could understand a little bit, which made him appreciate her somewhat.

"Go on, if you find the Phoenix Flower again in the future, you can come and ask me for a price."

Gu Lian got out of the carriage with ten taels of silver in her pocket. After watching them leave, she looked around and followed her family to the city wall of Xinyue Town.

Although the city wall was a little broken, there were officers and soldiers guarding the city gate. Gu Lizhi straightened his clothes, took out the pan that had been kept next to his body, and the officers and soldiers guarding the town gate looked at it carefully. After looking at the whole dish for a long time, I put them in.

"Is there a refugee who has been here? The officers and soldiers here seem to be very strict." Gu Lian felt that there was no possibility that those refugees would not come here, but the situation here seems to be nothing serious, which is really strange.

"I guess I've arrived here, but it's a town after all. Although there are not many troops here, it is more than enough to close the town gate to deal with the rioting refugees." Gu Lizhi also felt strange in his heart, but he thought that there were many scholars here. There is nothing wrong with being stricter in the places you will pass by.

Entering the town, it is different from the coldness outside, it is very lively here, there are many shops everywhere, and the peddlers with baskets are also shouting from time to time, the smell of various foods floats over, and I hear all kinds of food in my ears. With this kind of voice shouting, Gu Lian and the others felt extremely relaxed at this moment.

From leaving home to here, it has been almost two months, and they have experienced all kinds of hardships along the way, but fortunately, they survived to get here, and now, they are going to start living here.

"We have to go and see, where there is a house that can be rented, we have to settle down quickly." Feeling the atmosphere here, Gu Lizhi did not forget the business.

"Let's look for it separately! This land is so big, there must be someone who wants to rent a house." Uncle Tie couldn't wait to find a house.

After hearing this, everyone felt that it was polite, and it was best to walk in twos, so that they could take care of each other, and some people could run out and shout when encountering bad people.

"Okay, let's go find it separately! But we don't have much money on us, so we need to rent a cheaper one. We'd better go to the back and have a look. The farther the house is from the street, the cheaper it will be." Gu Lian just felt that the renting of houses has been the same since ancient times, and the more remote the place, the cheaper the price.

The closer the house is to the street, the owner knows that the price will be very high. It is conceivable that after they rent the house, the money in their hands may be completely exhausted.

"Our two families rent together, and we will have someone to take care of us when the time comes." Uncle Tie said with a smile.

The Gu family naturally agreed. It is good that the neighbors are familiar people, but if they live here for a long time in the future, they may meet more familiar people.

Everyone scattered around looking for a room together. Gu Lian and Gu Zhu took their younger brother to a place where the crowds were not too dense. Next, the three of them ordered a bowl of white noodle soup.
