Chapter 95

Kyoto looks prosperous, and it gathers most of the country's dignitaries, but in fact most of the officials are not as glamorous as described in the novel.

What kind of big courtyards that enter in threes, fours, and fives, those are treated by the big families who have accumulated for many generations. Other officials either have great achievements and high positions and received rewards from above, or they have received a lot of filial piety in the Youshui Yamen money, or close relatives in the family who are in business.

Due to the high prices in Kyoto and the expense of interpersonal communication, most officials can't even afford to buy a house, and live in official buildings under the jurisdiction of the imperial court that are rented out.

And the specifications of this official house are also different. The Huo family rents the four cheapest single rooms.

A sunny suite, in which Huo's father and Huo's mother live with Huo Xiaomei, and the outside is used as a main room for guests; the bright and bright single room next door is for Huo Shangjie and Zhu Jiayi, and the two low and narrow rooms on the opposite side are the second room of the big room.

In this way, 550 Wen was needed for a month, and they built a stove in front of the low house, and they had to pay another [-] Wen.

Zhu Jiayi sighed as she walked, isn't this similar to the Tongzilou in the era?

From time to time, a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law would poke their heads and laugh and gossip and ask a few words. Huo Shangjie called out patiently and politely: "There is a flat in the front alley, and our husband and wife will move there, just to make room for the children at home... "

During this period of time, they have seen the Huo family's jokes a lot, and they understand it in their hearts, but they joked: "Master Huo and Mrs. Huo have such a good relationship, they have been married for a year, and they still want to live as a young couple... ..."

"There will be some friction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, and sister-in-law. The smell is far away and near is stinky. There may be a warm family relationship after being separated by an alley."

With a faint smile on his face, Huo Shangjie nodded and did not reply. He followed the two brothers with a suitcase on his back, walking vigorously, not like a weak and delicate civil servant.

Zhu Jiayi walked slowly, and when she had just turned a corner, she heard the women and daughters-in-law whispering together, "It's a pity for Master Huo, it's a pity to have such a stingy daughter-in-law, not to mention helping her." , and I was afraid that my husband would be promising, so I kept holding back..."

"I think it's a trivial matter for Mr. Huo to lose his official position. Don't be tricked by this bad wife..."

Zhu Jiayi has a stalk in her heart, the road to whitewashing is heavy and has a long way to go!

The new house has the same layout as Huo's father and mother's house. There is only a very simple wooden bed in the inner room, a table and two chairs in the outer room, and there is a small stove built by the previous tenant with green bricks at the door, which is enough to turn around.

Huo Da Huo Er stacked the boxes horizontally against the wall of the inner room, then wiped off his sweat and ran two more times.

Zhu Jiayi walked around the house in less than half a minute.

The place had obviously been cleaned, and there was no dust on the bed. She slowly opened the box, took out the quilt and made the bed.

Seeing that it was still early, Zhu Jiayi said to Huo Shangjie, "I'm going to buy some daily necessities."

The latter looked at her expressionlessly, and just about to take out the money from his waist, he withdrew his hand and said flatly, "Tell me what you lack, and I'll go buy it."

Zhu Jiayi was not polite to him either, she shook her hands and said, "We have moved out, so we have to start cooking, right? So we need to buy an iron pot, a stew pot, dishes, chopsticks and spoons, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, pepper, pepper, firewood... "

Huo Shangjie couldn't help but gloomy face: "The yamen is some distance away from home, I leave early and return late, and I don't eat at home at noon.

The sister-in-law will deliver the food, and if you don't like it, ask her to buy it on the street. "
