Xia Li asked a young brother in the Dental Hall if the person Ding Liang was talking about was here.
At first, the little brother was not happy, but Xia Li took out a few coins from his bosom and gave it to him. His expression relaxed a little, "Ah Mu is inside, I'll call him for you."
Xia Li thanked him, and after Ah Mu came out, he chatted with him for a while, saying that Ding Liang was the one who recommended her to him, causing Ah Mu's attitude to immediately become more intimate.
The two conversed for a bit, and then quickly found a carriage to bring Xia Li to Tianshui Village to look at the house.
Xia Li hadn't come to the Tianshui Village for nearly half a month, yet she suddenly returned to this place. There was actually a kind of absent-minded feeling, especially when the carriage passed the Water God temple and the lakewater.
Ah Mu brought Xia Li to a desolate house, where four or five thatched cottages were connected to each other, the courtyard was filled with weeds and there was simply no place to stop. The house was also filled with spider webs and dust, there was not a single piece of furniture, so it was impossible to live in this short period of time.
"Isn't this room a little too destitute?" Xia Li awkwardly asked Ah Mu.
"Miss, I've told you before, the living conditions of Tianshui Village are indeed worse than those of other villages. Those that meet your requirements must have four to five thatched cottages as a courtyard, and this is the only one. Furthermore, this courtyard is only worth 10 taels of silver to the seller. This is a heavenly great opportunity. "
Ah Mu tried his best to promote the house.
"Okay, then I will buy this place first. Where is the owner, can I trouble Ah Mu to invite him out?"
Xia Li looked around, it was possible that people from the Tianshui Village were still busy working in the fields, and at this time, there were not many people walking around the village.
This is the house of the Grandma Wang, wait a moment, the man in her house has been sick all year round, he is in a hurry to use the money, he had no choice but to make a move, this house is mine, wait a moment, I will call her over.
In a short moment, Ah Mu brought over an old lady who was around fifty years old. Her white hair was a mess and her face was full of the marks left behind by the passage of time.
"Xia Li, why is it you? Didn't your family already leave the Tianshui Village? "No matter what, I still came back to buy a house. Right now, the people in the village are still a little disgusted with you. Go, even though I really need money right now, I don't want to cause myself any trouble. I won't sell the house."
The Grandma Wang turned and was about to leave.
"Grandma Wang, please wait. We have already started to have stable incomes and are no longer the same as before. Please give me a chance."
As Xia Li said that, he took out a bulging money bag from his bosom and stuffed it into Grandma Wang's hands.
Grandma Wang originally wanted to refuse, but after seeing the money pouch, he was unable to move his feet. He hesitated for a long time, and then looked at Xia Li.
At first, Ah Mu still did not understand what grudges the two families had, but he could tell that Grandma Wang did not want to sell the house to Xia Li. However, she especially wanted the money, so Ah Mu naturally wanted to grab this opportunity to help Xia Li take the house.
"Grandma Wang, although I don't know what conflicts there are between you and Xia Li, I have a suggestion. Why don't you listen to it, if in the future, the villagers really hate Xia Li's family, and when the villagers are angered by you, you can make Xia Li remove the engravings, and the silver she gave you will not be returned, what do you think?"
Ah Mu blinked his eyes at Xia Li, signalling to her not to object, and bought the house first.
"Then don't blame this old woman for bullying you. After all, Xia Li's family is famous for their terrible reputation within the Tianshui Village. To be able to take them in for a while is already already being kind to them."
Grandma Wang rolled his eyes and said while straightening his neck.
"Grandma Wang, I will add another rule. If we can protect the house and it won't bring any trouble to Grandma Wang's family within half a year, then this house will belong to us. All of these rules will be written on the sales contract and Ah Mu will be our witness."
Xia Li was not an idiot. Of course she had her own conditions, she could not foolishly agree to the terms of an Overlord that the Grandma Wang had proposed.
"I also don't want to be a bad guy. From now on, I'll tell the neighbors in the village that someone else bought the house, but I didn't expect you guys to come live here, it has nothing to do with me."
Grandma Wang bent his waist, his turbid eyes sizing up Xia Li.
"Alright, then I promise Grandma." Xia Li thought about it, then agreed.
"Elder, since you and Xia Li have agreed on this, then take out the house deed, I also have a contract to buy a house with you two pressing your hands on it, Xia Li has signed his name on the house deed, so this house can be considered as a success."
"Alright." Xia Li and Grandma Wang agreed together.
When the sun was about to set in the west, Xia Li finally got the house deed, and at this time, the villagers of Tianshui Village also came home one after another. Xia Li was worried that someone would recognize her and cause trouble for her, so he hid inside Ah Mu's horse carriage.
"Miss, it's already late and the road is not safe. I'll send you home and then return to town later."
Ah Mu shrewdly suggested to Xia Li.
Thank you, Ah Mu. Here is the fee for two taels of silver, I don't know how much you have charged me, it can be considered my gratitude to you. Xia Li said as he forcefully stuffed the silver into Ah Mu's hands.
"Miss, you've given us quite a bit. Usually, they would give you a tael of silver, but I'll give you the rest of that tael. This is our rule." Ah Mu did not wait for Xia Li to say anything, and only took a tael of silver, and returned the rest to her.
"I'm back." When the sun set over the sky, Xia Li returned to the courtyard with a room deed in his hand, his face glowing.
"You bought a house?" Sun Chun took the room deed, looked at the clause above, coughed lightly, and leaned close to her side and asked softly, "Are you ready to accept the challenge?"
Hearing Sun Chun's words, Xia Li's face turned unsettled, and he shook his head with difficulty: "I'm not good at dealing with people. After I go to the Tianshui Village, I might even suffer the contempt of the entire village.
If I were you, I would take my family and move to a place no one knows, buy a house, and live a life of leisure without looking at anyone's face. If you go on like this, you'll have to work very hard.
Sun Chun handed the room contract over to Xia Li, a gentle light shone from his eyes, but he did not say anything more.
"That's my home." This is also the first time I have come to this world and I am unwilling to leave.
"Yes, I understand." Sun Chun caressed Xia Li's little face, consoling her, "However, Tianshui Village people have a deeper prejudice against your family, you should prepare yourself. If necessary, you can ask me for help."
There are four or five thatched cottages with nothing in the house. The windows are broken and the roof is leaking, so we need someone to clean the yard and renovate the house. It will probably take two or three days for people to live there.
Xia Li said with her small face.
"That's fine, you just need to find someone. You just need to remember, if they don't attack me, I won't attack them. If those villagers really do cause trouble for you, I will have some fighting skills. If necessary, I can act as a guard in the yard."
Sun Chun smiled proudly.
"With your words, I have nothing to worry about." Xia Li's heart warmed, and he instantly gained confidence.
"Xia Li, you bought a house?"
Lee's heard the commotion in the courtyard, and brought Xia Qing in front of Xia Li, as he asked curiously.
"Mom, I've bought it, but I need someone to renovate the house. We'll move in a few days later."
Xia Li held onto Lee's's hand and said.
It would be better if we just bought a smaller courtyard. As long as we have a place to stay, it would not be easy for you to earn money. In half a month, Rich Man Yang will bring people over to ask for money.
Lee's doted on Xia Li, but considering the difficulties of his family, he was not willing to waste any money.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about money. As long as you and your brother are fine, I won't mind it." Xia Li comforted Lee's in time. She felt a little warm in her heart, the care and concern her family had for her was enough to become her backing and give her the courage to face any difficulties.
Didn't you want to find someone to renovate the house? Let me go and supervise them, I'm also a stranger here, and I trust that the people in the village won't intentionally cause trouble for me. When the house is repaired, you can bring your mother and brother over.
Sun Chun suggested.
"You said it, then you're not allowed to go back on your words. I was worried about building the house, and needed to take into account the purchase of furniture. It's hard to find a new body."
Xia Li grinned as he surrounded Sun Chun. Only then did he get the chance to surprise her, "But, where do you want to stay? I still need to help you find a place to stay.
Sun Chun laughed: "With my looks, it shouldn't be difficult for me to get a room to rest in with the owner of the room, Grandma Wang. Who knows, she might even take the initiative to keep me here to drink some tea."
"Keep bragging. When I see it, will you sleep on the street? When that happens, don't cry while looking for me."
Xia Li naturally believed that the person in front of him could not be ignored no matter where he went.
