Chapter 283 Come back to accompany you every day
Luyan Port is close to the West Gate, Zhengbei Entrance Lane, and the five squares are all houses of the Lin family. There are hundreds of families of Lin family descendants. Among them, Chongren Square is the most open, and the hundreds of acres of land are only inhabited by people. Six families.
The carriage drove in along the west gate of Chongrenfang, Chu Nanzhi opened the curtain, and casually looked at the buildings in the square.
Lin Jinxiao put the house deed box in her arms, looked out with her, looked at the houses everywhere and began to say to her in detail:
"The houses of Uncle Shu and Uncle Er in Chongrenfang occupy the largest area, each occupying nearly half the area of the square. Our old house is next door to Uncle Zu's house. Although it is not as spacious as Uncle Zu's house, it is better Those small workshops with hundreds of households are already extremely good."
Chu Nanzhi nodded in thought.
She has a general understanding of the ancient workshops. The small workshops where hundreds of families live together are not much different from the slums of her era. Those few households occupying a workshop like this must be wealthy families.
Looking at the box in his bosom, thinking about the land deed and house deed inside, Chu Nanzhi suddenly felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.
Although Luyan Port is not as good as Jingling City, it is also a prosperous and rich place second only to Jingling City. It is not easy to own a house and fields of your own in such a place where every inch of land is expensive.
"I heard that your family pawned the ancestral house because of your father's studies, but such a big house and 20 acres of land were pawned because of your father's studies?"
Thinking of his family's down and out history, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help asking curiously.
Although reading in ancient times was expensive, it is not so outrageous.
Lin Jinxiao smiled wryly and shook his head: "That's not true. My grandfather was a sick child. It is said that after my father was born, he became so sick that he couldn't get out of bed. The family's livelihood depended on pawning and selling ancestral property. In fact, my father At the time of the governor, there was not much left in the family business."
"I see."
It sounds like a very tragic story, but Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but smile inexplicably.
Lin Jinxiao put down the car curtain, looked at her peaceful face in the hazy night, and said in a deep voice:
"Most people from the Lin clan are used to living a lazy life. The life of my great-grandfather and grandfather is their normal state. A few decades ago, almost all the descendants of the Lin clan lived in Xishifang, all because of their Laziness has ruined half of the ancestral business.”
After a pause, he continued: "From now on, if you live in this workshop, you don't have to pay attention to the people around you. If you encounter problems, you can go to the patriarch. The 20 mu of paddy fields are not far from Chongrenfang. Yes, if you want to open a restaurant, you can ask the patriarch to exchange a few acres of dry land and pick and grow some fruits and vegetables yourself."
"it is good."
Chu Nanzhi was also thinking about this matter.
Although the rent of paddy fields is a bit more than that of dry land, 20 mu of paddy fields is only ten taels of silver a year, which is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for her. It is better to use these fields rationally.
Just thinking that he and Li Shu were given to her, and all the bank notes for the house and fields were handed over to her, Chu Nanzhi always felt a little uneasy.
She doesn't want to develop this bad habit of relying on others.
Looking thoughtfully at the blurred silhouette in the dark night, Chu Nanzhi said softly: "Lin Dalang, actually you don't have to hand over the deeds of the house to me, if you are worried about the four little treasures, wait until the restaurant After opening, I can go to the city to buy another yard after earning money, so that it will be very convenient for little treasures to visit me in the future."
"You gave birth to an heir for my Lin family, so the house and land should be distributed to you."
Lin Jinxiao smiled gently and said, "You don't need to say much about this matter, just follow my previous arrangement."
Thinking of the assassins in Broken Dragon Mountain, he also felt agitated: "If those assassins yesterday were really related to the tax and bank case, you will be much safer living in Chongrenfang than other places."
Saying this, he suddenly grabbed Chu Nanzhi's palm, and said earnestly, "Chu Nanzhi, I don't care about your attitude towards me, but you are the mother of the four little treasures after all, I don't care Hope to see you in danger again."
"Will not."
Chu Nanzhi's heart trembled slightly, she pulled her hand out, and said softly, "Take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about my affairs."
Lin Jinxiao nodded hesitantly.
Her skill is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary people, and no three or five people really can't do anything to her.
I was worrying too much.
During the conversation, the carriage slowly stopped at a corner in the south.
The lights are shining everywhere, and you can clearly see the surrounding scenery.
Chu Nanzhi took the crutches for him, helped him get off the carriage, and saw a small courtyard with a single building.
The dim light from the lantern hanging by the door shines into the courtyard. It seems that the area is not small, but it is larger than the small wooden house in Anling Village.
Hearing the movement outside, the quadruplets came out to meet Chu Nanzhi first, and when they saw Chu Nanzhi's figure, they leaned towards her one after another.
Dabao Lin Ruiwen pulled her, and said with a smile: "Mother, grandfather's house is so big, even bigger than grandma's yard."
The second treasure, Lin Ruixi, also threw herself into her arms with a smile like a flower, and the dimples at the corner of her mouth quivered happily: "Mother, can we live in grandfather's house with Dad in the future, and don't want Dad to live in the county alone?" Ya?"
Sambo Lin Ruichong also said: "Aniang, there are grandma and grandpa, can they live with us in grandfather's house?"
"Grandma and grandpa have to take care of Muci's younger brother and help Auntie take care of the fish pond. If you miss grandma and grandpa, you can take them into the city to accompany you in the future."
Chu Nanzhi hugged Three Treasures, then thought about the question that Second Treasures had asked, silently glanced at Lin Jinxiao, and said, "Your father is busy with business, so he will come back if he has time."
Hearing this, Lin Jinxiao smiled slightly, "I do have time."
"Oh, so you're coming back?"
Chu Nanzhi glared at him angrily.
In any case, there seemed to be quite a lot of houses in this yard, so it would not be possible to squeeze him into the same room.
Sambo lay on her shoulders, hearing her mother's tone of dissatisfaction, she pouted and asked, "Mother, don't you want my father to come back and live with us?"
"how come."
Chu Nanzhi looked at the questioning eyes of the little treasures, then looked into the courtyard, and found that Liu Yun, Chu Wenbi and his wife and Lin Tingzhen had come out, and smiled quickly: "I naturally hope that your father can He’s all back to accompany you, so that you don’t have to worry about him messing around outside.”
"Well, it is true."
Lin Jinxiao stared at the little ones, followed her words and continued: "I dare not not listen to your mother's words. I will come back to accompany you every day no matter how late it is."
