Chapter 4 Buying a house and settling down



Yuan Chuyi understood clearly the worries about his two children. Having experienced life and death, it was normal for them to be afraid.

Yuan Chuyi rubbed their heads and said, "Don't worry like this in the future, my sister will never abandon you again!"

Hearing the growling sound from their stomachs, she took out two white-flour steamed buns from her backpack, "You must be starving, let's eat some steamed buns first to cushion your stomach!"

The two children wiped away tears, their eyes twinkling. They have grown so big that unless they can eat white flour steamed buns during the Chinese New Year, they will never eat them normally.

"Sister, can I really eat it?"

"Of course, feel free to eat. In the future, we will not only have white flour steamed buns to eat, but also meat every day!" Yuan Chuyi promised the young brothers.

The twins quickly took the steamed buns and were about to nibble on them, but they looked at Yuan Chuyi again, and each of them broke off half of it and handed it to Yuan Chuyi, "Sister, eat it too!"

Yuan Chuyi was very pleased to see these two siblings being so sensible. In the original owner's impression, she was not very kind to her younger siblings. Sometimes she would beat and scold them when she was angry, but she never ate alone when she had food and would share it with them.

"Sister, I just ate, you go ahead and eat, we will have to cook for a while!"

The two children immediately started wolfing down the food with wide smiles on their faces! They haven't had anything to eat all day, so they are already hungry!

"Sister, after you entered the city, the village chief uncle brought people to repair the house. He let us live here with peace of mind. He also said that if anything happens, we should go to him!" Yuan Liu said vaguely while eating steamed buns. .

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he looked at the house and saw that the broken thatch on the roof had been replaced with new ones, the collapsed walls had been surrounded with thatch mats, and even the floor had been cleaned with help. In just one afternoon, the shabby thatched hut has been completely transformed. It is true that there is strength in numbers.

When Yuan Chuyi looked in the direction of Dizi, she remembered the kindness of the village chief and the villagers.

Seeing that it was still dark, she took some eggs she had just bought in the city and walked to the village.

At this time, every household in the village was lighting a fire to cook dinner, and smoke was curling up. When the villagers saw her entering the village, they all came out of their houses and lay at the courtyard gate, looking at her curiously, pointing and talking in low voices.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she was not afraid of strangers and asked the villagers where the village chief's home was. Two children with runny noses volunteered to take her there.

The village chief's home is in the middle of the village. It is a large courtyard with mud walls and gray tiles. It is very grand and is the largest courtyard in the village.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he expected that the village chief was the most capable person in the village, otherwise he would not be able to build a big house and become the village chief.

Zhang Yongfu's family is large and there are many people. Since his parents are gone, the two brothers have separated, but more than a dozen people from both families still live together in this courtyard.

When they saw Yuan Chu coming to the door, they all came out and crowded in the main room to watch the excitement, and the villagers also gathered outside the courtyard wall.

Zhang Yongfu and his wife warmly invited Yuan Chuyi to come into the house and sit by the fire to warm themselves.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he put down the dozen eggs he had brought and thanked Zhang Yongfu and Wang Guifen.

"Uncle, aunt, thank you so much for today! I will keep this kindness in my heart at first, and I will repay it in the future."

Zhang Yongfu chuckled and said, "Ms. Yuan, you are serious. These are just a piece of cake. Don't take it to heart. What's the matter with Mrs. Yuan here?"

"I pawned something today and got more than a dozen dollars. I want to buy the yard and the land at the end of the village while they are still in my hands. I don't know how much it should cost?"

"The land deeds of the houses in the village are not valuable, so the yard and land can be bought for ten guan." Zhang Yongfu said, looking at Yuan Chuyi, "Ms. Yuan has just arrived, so let's live here first and buy it when we have more money."

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he took out a purse from his arms, which he had just bought in the city. She took out two fifty-tael silver notes and a one-tael silver note and put them on the table.

"Uncle, the ten taels of silver notes are the money to buy the yard, and the one tael of silver notes are the deed fee and your tea fee. Could you please help me get the house deed tomorrow?"

The Zhang family all widened their eyes. It seems that this girl has some wealth!

"Ms. Yuan, how much did you pawn that bracelet for? It's all gone in one go. How will you three siblings live in the future?" Wang Guifen said.

Yuan Chuyi knew that Wang Guifen was doing it for her own good, but she had her own plans for her life. "It's okay, aunt, I will buy this house sooner or later. Buy it first while you have enough money. If you don't know the money later, Where have the flowers gone?”

Zhang Yongfu felt that what Yuan Chuyi said was reasonable and nodded in agreement. He put away the banknote and wrote the receipt to her, "I will go to the city to handle it for you tomorrow!"

"Thank you, uncle!" Yuan Chuyi thanked him again, "Uncle, if people from our village go to work outside, how much does it cost per day?"

When Zhang Yongfu heard Yuan Chuyi's question, he thought she was going out to find work, "Men, if you go out to carry goods a day, you can only get a hundred yuan a day at most. When you women go out, you can only help others wash clothes, and the most is It’s only seventy or eighty yuan.”

After Zhang Yongfu finished speaking, he was about to ask Yuan Chuyi what kind of work she planned to go out to find, when he saw that she had already taken out three one-tael silver notes from her purse.

"Uncle, aunt, today you not only saved me, but also helped to repair the house. Everyone's time was wasted. This love is unforgettable for us siblings. Now I don't know how to repay everyone. I would like to ask you to help me." These few taels of silver notes were converted into copper plates and distributed among the uncles who helped repair the house and the ladies who saved me today!"

She will never forget the kindness of the villagers for their help, but if she can use money to make up for it, she will not hesitate to spend it. .

Zhang Yongfu never expected that they would get paid for helping, "You kid, you are from our village. It is necessary for neighbors to help each other, but you are out of sight!"

"Uncle will be disobedient if he doesn't accept it!" Yuan Chuyi said with a smile, "Uncle Lao will help you pass it on to everyone!"

Zhang Yongfu scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Okay, I will definitely handle this for you."

"Uncle Xie, if this money is not enough, just tell me and I will make up for it in two days when I make money!"

After hearing what Yuan Chuyi said, Zhang Yongfu knew that she probably had no money now, "Don't worry, enough is enough."

Zhang Yongfu had some copper coins at home, and he decided to distribute them to everyone after dinner.

After the matter was settled, Wang Guifen was asked to take her to see Zhang Xiujuan who was cooking in the kitchen on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty. In front of Wang Guifen, she took out five strings of copper plates from her purse and put them in Zhang Xiujuan's hand.

"Sister Juan, thank you for lending me your clothes today! I've soiled these clothes, so I can't return them to you. Here is five hundred coins. Please go buy a new one!"

"Ah!" Zhang Xiujuan and her mother were shocked, "Sister Chuyi, I can't help it. My clothes are so old that I don't wear them much anymore. I don't want you to pay them back! You can take the money back, I won't accept it." !”

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he didn't allow her to refuse. He gave her the money, folded the empty purse and put it away, then said goodbye to Zhang's house and returned to the village.

Zhang Yongfu looked at Yuan Chuyi's retreating figure and nodded approvingly, "She is indeed a girl who has returned from the capital. She has seen the world and does things appropriately!"

He looked at his family and said, "You should make good friends with Mrs. Yuan!"
