From Lao's house to Hua's house at the east end of Fanhua Town, it almost crossed half of Fanhua Town, and walked for about a quarter of an hour.
If he drank a few drops of Jade Heart Immortal Marrow when he was in the forest, Su Shuilan's delicate body was forged to be healthy, otherwise, with Su Shuilan's original physique, he would have been out of breath long ago.
"Looking at how delicate and soft the girl is, I didn't expect that she would be able to walk better than our daughter. In the future, it will be a good life." Aunt Lao walked for a while, and saw that Su Shuilin was still following her closely. The pace, without the slightest intention to rest, raised his thumb and said in approval.
As soon as these words came out, Su Shuilin and Hongxia didn't say anything, and even Lin Siyao, who was always silent and expressionless, stiffened. Unnaturally, he turned his head slightly, and covered his nose and lips with a fist that seemed to cough.
Aunt Lao casually talked about her daughter, who was going to have a kiss during the Chinese New Year, her name is Lao Xicui. I usually do some embroidery work at home to earn some dowry for myself. These few days coincided with the bustling July 7th in Fanluo City. I went with my second child, Lao Yongqiang, to set up a stall in the city to sell embroidery products. Counting the time, I will be back at noon today. I don't know how many embroidery products my daughter sold this time. Aunt Lao thought to herself.
Su Shuilin, who was listening intently to Aunt Lao's praise for her daughter, lit up her eyes when she mentioned the word "embroidery". The corners of his mouth couldn't stop twitching. In this way, one's own strengths can be utilized, and at least with his excellent embroidery skills, it shouldn't be a problem to support himself.
Lin Siyao glanced at her suspiciously, not understanding that Su Shuilin, who was shy and wanted to bury her head on the ground just now, could feel her happy mood in an instant. Did this peasant woman say something? He frowned, carefully recalling everything that Auntie Lao said.
…
"Speaking of our yard, it faces south, and the way out is clear. Less than 100 meters to the left is our own paddy field, and a short while to the right is the great ancestral hall of Fanhua Town. The festival is very lively. There is a dedicated river pier, so you don't have to walk a long way to the communal pier to wash your clothes and sheets, which is convenient..."
At first sight, Mrs. Liu, the wife of the Hua family, was following behind the mother-in-law of the Lao family to look at her house. It was such a handsome young man and woman, and the girl who was only fifteen or sixteen years old was full of gentle and graceful gestures. , I don't think it's a baby from an ordinary family.
As a result, her wrinkled face was filled with layers of smiles, and she pulled Su Shuilin to introduce her bright and spacious house to the best of her ability.
Aunt Lao couldn't help rolling her eyelids to the sky when she heard Liu's can-ruo pear-blossom talk about the Hua family's wonderful house.
Su Shuilin followed behind Liu Shi and walked around the Hua Family Courtyard with joy. Except the main house is a bit shabby, but the overall layout is really good. The courtyard space in front of and behind the house is not small. I will plant a few plants of my favorite flowers, plants, melons and fruits. I will place a chaise longue under a tree that is enough to shade the sun. I can read embroidery, and it seems that I can go back to the boudoir of the Su family. The quiet and peaceful years in the courtyard.
With this thought in mind, Su Shuilin interrupted Mrs. Liu who was still praising him incessantly. Yingying smiled and said softly, "Aunt Hua, does forty taels include furniture?"
Liu Shi was stunned when he heard the words, but he hadn't thought about it. Just as he was about to speak, he heard his eldest daughter-in-law speak: "This girl, we are going to take most of this property with us. After all, the house in our city is twice as big as here, and we need to put a lot of furniture in it. Yes. You also know that this property is going up a lot now." The eldest daughter-in-law of the Hua family glanced at Lin Siyao several times while talking, and couldn't help thinking: This man is really handsome, If his man is eight-point handsome, he will be happy enough.
Hearing this, Su Shuilu frowned lightly. If all the furniture and belongings in the house were left, then forty taels would be forty taels. But now, hearing the words of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Hua family, I knew in my heart these four things. It must have been just an empty house that Shiliang bought. I want to add the necessary furniture to the house, and I can't guarantee whether the remaining twelve taels are enough, and there are still days before the embroidery work, but how will I live? !
"Oh, my daughter-in-law doesn't know how to speak, so, girl, I won't meet you anymore, Aunt Hua. I'll leave some of the furniture in this house for the girl. Aunt Hua knows that the girl who first arrived must be what it is. I haven't prepared yet, don't worry, don't worry, we will never remove it, we will definitely leave a few necessary things for the girl. Aunt Hua still has some credibility." Seeing Su Shui's frowning, Mrs. Liu frowned. Knowing what her eldest daughter-in-law said made her hesitant, for fear of the duck flying away from her mouth, she immediately pulled the corner of her daughter-in-law's clothes and motioned her not to interrupt, and he leaned over to Su Shuilan and said good things, hoping that Su Shui Lin immediately took out the money to sign the contract.
Hearing her being so polite, Su Shuilin was too embarrassed to bargain again. He turned to look at Lin Siyao, walked gently to his side, and asked for his opinion: "Do you think it's good here?"
Lin Siyao lowered his head, and his eyes swept over her hopeful little face gently. To him, it didn't matter where he lived, as long as he could see where she was, she could see her graceful figure and hear her softness. A warm voice is enough.
Lin Siyao nodded, forty taels? In this case, there is only one tael of silver left in her purse. As for the scattered pieces of silver deposited in the inn, it must be enough to pay the room fee for the past few days.

Lin Siyao laughed at himself for a while. He had been a killer hired by Gao Jin for many years, and he had never had such a stretched moment. However, now that she has left Fengyao Pavilion, she has also promised that she will never resume her employment, so it is better not to use the savings she has left in the secret place for many years. But, apart from only knowing how to kill with a sword and see blood seal his throat, what else can he know
…
"Here is forty taels, and Aunt Hua is ready." Su Shuilin took out four silver ingots from his purse and handed them to Liu, who was smiling. Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law signed their names on the transfer contract that had been drawn up long ago. Each party holds one copy.
"Tsk tsk, looking at the girl's calligraphy, she is really a lady." Holding the transfer contract, Mrs. Liu stared at Su Shui's delicate and freehand signature and praised her. Looking at his eldest son's name in the left column, which was crooked like an earthworm, the old face couldn't help but get hot. Looking at Aunt Lao, who envied her forty taels of money so quickly, she retrieved her face in a timely manner, and involuntarily held her chest out. When it comes to reading and writing, her two sons are better than those of the Hua family. Son is great.
"Complete! Then let's pack up and move as soon as possible." Liu shi carefully put away the transfer contract and forty two silver dollars, said cheerfully, turned back to the eldest daughter-in-law's ear, and motioned her to immediately go down to the field to find the old man who was working. , let him hurry into the city to inform the eldest son who has set up a stall and has not confiscated, it is best to implement the house in the city today. In this way, tomorrow, my family can move to the city in a beautiful way and enjoy the life in the city.
