Traveling through the ancient times

Suddenly, the atmosphere became lively.

Everyone was chatting and laughing while eating cakes. Zhou Jingjing asked the maid to order a few dishes. It was a lively scene of eating and drinking.

After eating and drinking, the group of people came to the plywood again. By this time, it was completely dark.

There are many night walkers walking along the streets on both sides of the river. There is no curfew here, and there is no separation between men and women. Men and women eat snacks and look at the lanterns. It is very lively.

There are cruise ships in the middle of the river, and the sounds of singing, dancing and playing the piano can be heard from the boats.

Standing on the plywood and feeling the wind, the slightly tipsy feeling from drinking the fruit wine just now dissipated a lot immediately, and I felt comfortable and cozy!

At this moment, Chushunihua felt that life here was not bad. There was not so much pressure, and the classmates were not so competitive. He did not have to worry about credits and living expenses every day, and he did not have to deal with the intrigues among colleagues.

Even if it is just a dream, I am willing to indulge in it at this moment!

The next day, Chushuhua got up early, had breakfast, and went to find the housekeeper.

She thought a lot last night. Even in this dream, she still needed money and a house to enjoy a stable life, so she had to ask the housekeeper about the housing prices and prices here so that she could be mentally prepared.

When Nian Chuhua found the butler, the butler had just arranged all the affairs of the mansion for the day. The master and the mistress were not here, and the young lady was still young, so he had to take care of the household.

"Grandpa Butler, do you have time now? I have something to ask you." Nian Chuhua walked over and asked.

The housekeeper looked at the little girl in front of him and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do now, but what can I do for you, Miss Chu Hua?"

"That's right, Grandpa Butler. I want to ask you, how much money do I need to buy a house?"

"Miss, how big a house do you want to buy? Where do you want to buy it? The price will be different in different locations." The old butler said truthfully.

Chushouhua thought for a moment and said, "The house doesn't need to be very big, as long as it's big enough for a family of four to live in. What about the location? I'm not very familiar with Qunan, do you have any good suggestions, Grandpa Butler?"

The houses in the south of the city are the most expensive. It can be said to be a wealthy area. Rich people basically live here. The Jiang family is also in this area. With the current economic situation at the beginning of the year, there is definitely no need to think about it.

Nianchuhua told the housekeeper some of her requirements, and the housekeeper introduced the situation in all aspects to her.

After comprehensive consideration, we finally decided on the east side of the city, which is not far from the downtown area, making it convenient to get in and out of the city, and the housing prices are not that expensive. A small house there can be bought for about five hundred taels of silver. If you are in a hurry to sell it, you can lower the price further.

At the beginning of the year, I asked the housekeeper to keep an eye out for something suitable, and also asked the housekeeper about the shop.

Everyone had a general understanding of the situation. At this time, a servant came running over and said that he had something to report to the butler. Nian Chuhua thanked the butler and left.

When Nian Chuhua returned to Jiang Ruixue's yard, the eldest lady had not yet gotten up, so Nian Chuhua sat alone on the swing outside the house in a daze...

A house requires at least five hundred taels of silver. She still has more than one hundred and sixty taels of the silver the housekeeper gave her yesterday. According to what the housekeeper said before, she will have an income of at least six hundred taels next month. Adding up, she will have more than seven hundred or eight hundred taels, which is enough to buy the house.

When she was about to start her painting, she thought that this was her first property in her two lifetimes, and she was excited again...

Initially, Chuchuhua wanted to buy a shop first, but then she thought that living in the Jiang Mansion like this was not a solution. Although Jiang Ruixue would not say anything, she always felt bad about it. After all, one needs one's own doghouse!

After buying a house and having her own permanent residence, she will slowly consider the shop. After all, she still has to go to college and has not yet decided what her next business will be.

At the beginning of the year, I was thinking wildly. I hadn't written a letter home for a long time, so I went into the house and wrote a letter home, and put a silver note of fifty taels in the envelope.

When the servant of the Jiang residence delivered the letter written at the beginning of the year, Nian Dali had just finished his work for the day and was about to go home when he heard someone outside looking for him.

Before Nian Dali reached the gate, he saw the young man who delivered the letter to their family last time, standing at the door and looking inside.

Nian Dali took a few quick steps and came to the servant. "Brother, my daughter asked you to deliver a letter again?"

"Yes, Uncle Nian, this is a letter from Miss Chu Hua to you." He took out the letter and handed it over.

Nian Dali laughed and pulled the boy to an empty space on the side and said, "Please help me read it."

The servants of the Jiang family who go out are all trained and can read and write. The letter that Chushuhua sent back last time was also read by the servants.

The young man didn't say much. He opened the letter and read it. It was roughly about what happened at the academy at the beginning of the year. He also said that she had started a business with someone else, made some money, and brought some money back to them. She asked them to take good care of their health and that she would take them in to live with her when she earned enough money and bought a house.

After reading it, the servant handed the letter and the banknote back to Nian Dali.

Nian Dali found paper and pen and asked the servant to help him write a reply.

Nian Dali said, "Young man, you have worked hard," and put a few copper coins in the servant's hand, inviting the servant to have some tea.

The servant did not refuse. He took the money and left with the reply letter.

Nian Dali was walking home happily, smiling at everyone he met, even greeting the passing dogs, making passers-by think he was a fool...

After returning home, Nian Dali took out the letter that Nian had written at the beginning of the year, told Luo the contents of the letter, and smiled as he handed the banknote to Luo.

Luo took the letter. Although she could not read, she read it over and over again several times before she folded it with satisfaction and put it in the house.

Even Nian Nian knew about it. Her sister wrote back a letter saying that her sister was studying and doing business and also brought them money. She clapped her hands and said that her sister was awesome!

The whole family was smiling with joy, they were proud and relieved that their daughter had made great progress!

Meanwhile, when Jiang Ruixue heard that Chuchuhua wanted to buy a house, she thought that some servants were gossiping about it behind her back.

Mingyue went to check and came back to say that there was no trace of the painting. Everyone in the mansion, from the master to the maids, liked the painting very much, so she felt relieved.

"Chu Hua, I heard that you want to buy a house?" Jiang Ruixue asked casually at the dinner table.

"Well, I thought I had some money now. When I receive next month's payment, I will have several hundred taels of silver. So I asked the housekeeper and asked him to help keep an eye on it." Nian Chuhua replied after swallowing a piece of Dongpo pork.

"What's wrong? Are you not used to living here?" Jiang Ruixue asked tentatively.

"No way, the food and accommodation here are good, how can I not get used to it? I am still worried that after living like this for a long time, I will not be able to get used to civilian life.

Besides, I can't live in your house forever, I have to have my own home, so that my parents and brother can have a place to stay when they come over in the future." Chu Nianhua comforted Jiang Ruixue and told her not to think too much.

"Why can't you live in my house forever? My house is your home. When your parents and brother come over, they can live in the mansion. There are so many courtyards in the mansion. They can live in whichever one they like." Miss Jiang replied generously.

"That won't work. Even if I'm thick-skinned and willing to live in your house forever, they will definitely feel embarrassed." Nian Chuhua explained. She knew that Jiang Ruixue meant well.

Jiang Ruixue pouted and looked unhappy.

Nianchuhua comforted him: "Well, it won't be easy to buy a house. Besides, even if you buy the house, I can still live in your house. Your chef's cooking skills are so good, I don't have that ability. Besides, you can still live in my house."

"Well, you don't have to reserve a room for me. I'll live with you." Jiang Ruixue said in a muffled voice.

"I will sleep on the floor in the young lady's room." Mingyue also reported her name at the right time.

"Okay, as long as you are willing, we welcome you anytime."
