Chapter 434: property purchase

Within an hour, Li Haitang's thoughts changed again and again. Ever since she secretly planned to stay with her savage husband, no matter how bad it was, she could still walk together for half a month. She felt a sense of pushing through the clouds.

The plan can't change quickly. As for whether she can go to the northwest with Xiao Lingchuan in half a month, it depends on her physical condition. If Doubao is not honest, then another arrangement will be made.

For her, Kyoto was a strange place, and Li Haitang was a little bit conflicted in her heart.

"What, you're going to Kyoto?"

Zhang Ruyi spit out the seeds in the middle of the candied haws and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, thinking that she had heard wrong.

Although she has been away from Kyoto for many years, I believe that there is still a legend about her Miss Zhang in Kyoto.

"Egg yolk mooncakes from Deyuezhai, walnut crisps, sesame sticks from West Street, baked shortbread from Shouquan Hutong, cured mutton from Laosun's family, and restaurants on a street in the north of the city, let me think about it..."

Zhang Ruyi swallowed her saliva. These foods are not available to ordinary people, and they are sold in limited quantities. If she wants to eat, she depends on people from all over the house to queue up before dawn. She doesn't brag at all, they are better than the dim sum made in the palace. .

Kyoto is a good place, and it’s not that cold in winter, only the occasional snow falls. The young masters and ladies of high families are arty and elegant, and they like to make tea with snow falling from the branches. Zhang Ruyi is impatient, but she can say Get it right.

"In Kyoto, it's not boring at all. There are flower viewing parties, tea parties every three days, and a boat cruise at night, especially the annual Qiqiao Festival. The lanterns and water lamps by the river are so beautiful!"

Not only that, the people in Kyoto like to listen to operas, and the little peach blossoms in Nade's class are all over the place, and there are admirers wearing peach blossoms everywhere in the streets and alleys.

In March in Yangchun, there are flowers, peach blossoms, and silk flowers. Occasionally, among the big girls and young wives, you can see uncles and men with hot eyes, waving a big flag in their hands to support Xiao Taohong.

"It's not good to mention anyone, but I have to mention Xiao Taohong."

Li Haitang pursed his lips and kept silent, just didn't answer, he hoped that the two of them would not see each other again, otherwise that person would always affect the harmonious relationship between the couple.

"Haitang, you'll know it when you've been in the capital, and the people there are better at looking for fun than those in the north."

The capital is rich and prosperous, while the north is bitterly cold. The lives of the common people are not one kind of life, almost two extremes.

Zhang Ru disagreed with Li Haitang, and said something to himself, and then there was nostalgia in her eyes. After a while, time passed so fast, she hadn't been back for several years.

"You know about Jin Hu and I, we're going back to the Ruan family to recognize our relatives."

Li Haitang took his younger brother Li Jinhu and sat opposite Miss Zhang. Don't mention her, if the younger brother is new to the capital, his eyes will be darkened, and he doesn't understand anything, it is best to have an acquaintance to take care of him.

She weighed it in her heart, the Ruan family was not as reliable as outsiders.

Li Haitang heard that Ma Bihe's father, Mr. Ma, had a shop in Beijing, and his business was doing well. She had a token from Ma's family in her hand, and she could come to ask for help when she encountered difficulties.

"Are you going back to Ruan's house?"

Zhang Ruyi puffed her face. She knew a little about the life experiences of the two siblings. The Ruan family was a noble family in Kyoto, with a clean and upright family style, but there were some people who were not easy to get along with. For example, that Ruan Mianmian was her deadly enemy.

"Haitang, Ruan Mianmian is about the same age as you, seems to be older than you, she should be your cousin."

That person is the most contrived, has many thoughts, and secretly trips people up. She, Miss Zhang, has suffered a lot, but she can't find Ruan Mianmian's fault.

The siblings grew up in Beidi Village, and their status was several levels lower. They would definitely be laughed at in a wealthy family, and even maids and mother-in-law used to step on the highs and lows, and watch people order dishes.

"Let's go on the road at this time, can we make it to Kyoto during the Chinese New Year?"

Zhang Ruyi is a warm-hearted person, so it is inevitable that she is worried about Li Haitang. She wants to go back to Beijing with her, but she can't leave her mother-in-law alone in Lucheng for the New Year. Moreover, given Lu Er's physical condition, it is better to recuperate at home.

"Take a shortcut and you should be able to get there."

Li Haitang's eyes darkened, and he leaned into Zhang Ruyi's ear and whispered his plan.

"you…"

Zhang Ruyi froze, opened her mouth wide, and then closed her mouth with her hands after a long while. Li Jinhu was only ten years old, and as an older sister, she could send people to the capital.

She didn't have any ink in her stomach, so she searched her mind for a long time, but couldn't find a suitable adjective, so she had to give up.

"When I left Kyoto, almost all the dowry left by my mother was sold off. There is only a small farm left in the southern suburbs."

Zhang Ruyi analyzed that the Ruan family would not do anything to Li Jinhu, but they would inevitably suffer grievances. Ruan Pingzhi is a scholar, not so sophisticated in human relations, and he is a careless man who doesn't think too much.

In case Li Jinhu got angry and didn't want to stay in the Ruan family, he had to find a place to stay.

The rest is Zhang's mansion, but his father has just been appointed to an official position, and the battle in the mansion is fierce, and he has no intentions.

"I have always had the idea of ​​buying property in Kyoto. In the future, my younger brother will definitely not stay in Beidi, and we will also go south."

However, any farm in the capital would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, and Li Haitang was still worried about letting my younger brother carry the money with him.

Her idea was to give the Ma family a sum of money, and then use the token to go to the Ma family's shop in Kyoto to pay for it, and buy a property for Li Jinhu.

During this trip to the capital, Second Aunt Chen's family followed. After all, it was not a death contract, and the money touched people's hearts. There were many cases of backbiting in recent years, so she inevitably had to be more thoughtful.

Therefore, money cannot be handed over to the Chen family. Li Haitang knows very well that money should not be used to test people, there are too many variables.

"Haitang, why are you so entangled, my dowry can be resold to you!"

Zhang Ruyi slapped her chin. Anyway, she doesn't want to return to live in the capital in the future. The farm can't be managed, and it's useless to keep it. It's better to sell it and exchange it for some real money.

"It's not very easy to buy in Jingdu Grange. You keep it in your hand and still produce every year. Why sell it?"

Li Haitang shook her head. Every inch of land is very expensive. It is extremely difficult to buy a field. She didn't want to take advantage of Zhang Ruyi.

"You want to buy property, I just want to sell it, we hit it off!"

Zhang Ruyi shook her head, her mother-in-law had lived in Beidi for most of her life, and she didn't want to travel far in the future, and Lu Er is a filial son, and there was almost no possibility of living in the capital.

Moreover, there is nothing wrong with Beidi, and the folk customs are simple and honest, which is better than those pretending ladies in Kyoto.

"The farm is not big, with only 100 mu of paddy fields. However, there is a large lotus pond in the farm. It is cool in summer and is the best way to escape the heat. The house was also repaired in the first few years." To Li Haitang, according to the market price, no more, no less, it is worth 15,000 taels of silver.
