The next day, Su He set off with Mu Tou. She finally remembered that she had not taken her brother to school yet.

"Mu Tou, how about I buy a small house in the county? It's not convenient for you to study if you live in the village."

Su He felt that her brother was an adult, and they would discuss everything together.

"Then sister, will you come and accompany me?"

Mu Tou asked with a frown. He wanted to study, but he was reluctant to leave his family in Liushu Village, especially his sister and Miaomiao.

"Stay with me. I'm worried about you being alone."

Su He felt helpless. She couldn't enjoy her new home for the time being. How could she forget that Mu Tou had to come to the county to study.

"Okay, let's go to the private school first, and then go look at the house."

Suho planned her itinerary and decided in her mind that if she found a suitable house, she would move in immediately.

An hour later, we arrived at Zhixing Private School.

"Uncle, please wait for us at the door. I estimate that I will be out in half an hour."

Su He made the arrangements with Shunzi and went in with Mu Tou.

The guard at the door hurried over to inquire.

"It was the Second Master of the Zhao Mansion who asked my brother to come to study, but he was delayed by something and missed the first day of school."

Su He replied politely, and the concierge quickly ran to find the principal of the private school.

At this point, school had already started for more than a month, and the private school was filled with the sounds of young boys reading.

"The sky and earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast and wild..."

Su He looked at the serious little boys through the open window, as if she was back in her school days, when her grandmother held her hand and stood at the gate of the elementary school.

"My little darling, you must listen to the teacher and pay attention in class, okay?"

Little Su He nodded seriously, and the little braids beside her ears moved as well, as if she was agreeing with her little master.

"Grandma, I'll study hard."

"Oh, by the way, grandma will pick you up after school."

Su He looked down at Mu Tou, who was as tall as his chest, and said, "Mu Tou, do you want to study here?"

"Well, I'll support my elder sister and younger sister when I grow up. Sister, I'll work hard."

"it is good."

"You are Lotus, right?"

Su He and the other person looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man in a blue gown walking towards them quickly.

Su He quickly replied, "You are the principal, right? I am He Hua, and this is my younger brother Su Che. We came too late and caused trouble for the principal."

Mu Tou quickly followed his sister and called out, "Su Che greets the gentleman."

Zhao Yun smiled and nodded, "Second Master has already informed me, I know. It is true that you have missed some lessons, but as long as you study hard, I believe you will catch up soon."

"Principal, we are here to register today. I wonder what books we should buy?"

Su He didn't know much about ancient reading, but as long as it cost money, it wasn't a big deal, so she wasn't worried.

"I have all the books here, Su Che, you don't need to buy any more. But if you have the conditions, it's better to have a set of writing brushes, inkstones, and paper at home. It will be more effective to review what you have learned at the private school at home."

Zhao Yun is a descendant of the Zhao family branch. His family is poor. He was able to study to become a scholar with the financial support of his master. Because of his own experience, he usually thinks about his students the most.

Su He felt relieved when he heard this, as this request could be easily fulfilled.

"Su Che, since you are here today, come and start school with me right away."

Mu Tou was caught off guard and looked at Su He. Although Su He was surprised, he didn't want to refute the principal.

"Brother, go with the teacher. I'll pick you up after school."

Su He nodded towards Mu Tou, signaling him to go without worry.

Seeing that his sister agreed, Mu Tou, also known as Su Che, followed his master obediently.

Su He followed Shunzi to the dental clinic as planned. There were only two dental clinics in the county, so Su He specifically asked Mother Zhang and chose Chunxing Dental Clinic, with which they often cooperated.

As the two men driving the mule stopped at the door, someone ran out from inside to greet them.

"Hello young lady, I'm Li from Chunxing Yahang. We sell real estate and livestock here. If you want to buy some attentive servants, we have a lot of them on hand. Just ask."

Su He nodded, "I want to come and see the house. Do you have a place to park the carriage?"

"Oh, that's great. Someone come in and help the young lady park the carriage and take care of the mule."

Another boy rushed out from the door, he looked to be about ten years old, and drove the carriage away with his head lowered.

Shunzi followed behind Su He, and this time he acted as a bodyguard.

"Miss, we can go and look at houses anytime. Which house do you like?"

Su He had already thought about it, "Let's go for a place near Zhixing Private School. It doesn't have to be too big. It should be suitable for a family of three. If there is a suitable one, I want to look at it now."

Li Yaren nodded, thinking quickly about suitable houses, and quickly finalized a few.

"Miss, wait for me for a while. I'll go get the key right away. Zhixing Private School is not far from here. We can walk there."

After getting Su He's consent, Li Yaren quickly ran in to get the key.

After half an incense stick of time, Li Yaren ran out panting.

"I have the key, miss. Let's go. I have selected three houses for you. One is a small courtyard. There is a stone table at the entrance, with two stone benches on the side. There are two rooms for living and a kitchen. Next to the kitchen is a utility room."

Li Yaren introduced Su He and the other person while walking towards their destination, and they arrived soon.

When Su He walked in, he could see all the structures at a glance. The door of one of the wing rooms was facing the main door.

Su He frowned subconsciously. This was not very convenient. If the front door was opened for some reason, the privacy would be leaked if the room door was not closed. It would not be suitable to stay there for a long time if the door was kept closed.

"What about water? Isn't there a well?"

Li Yaren kept staring at Su He's expression, knowing in his heart that she didn't like him.

"This house is relatively simple, and there is no well, but it is very cheap, only 45 taels are enough."

Su He shook her head decisively. She had enough money to buy a house, so there was no need to be cheap. It was quite inconvenient without a well.

"Just look at the next one."

Li Yaren brought the two of them to the second house with a smile.

"This is also a small courtyard, but it's bigger than the first one. There's still no well, but water is available for sale within an incense stick of time after you walk out the door. It's also very convenient on weekdays."

Li Yaren tried his best to sell. "Miss, let's go in and take a look. There is a screen wall at the entrance, which blocks the view of visitors. The privacy of the room is guaranteed. Come on, Miss, please come in first. Sir, please come in too."

Li Yaren initially thought Shunzi was a servant, but he didn't expect the female customer to call him uncle. Thinking of this, Li Yaren secretly said that it was a close call. Fortunately, he didn't say anything wrong. It seems that he will get the deal.
