The matter of buying a house was something Ninth Madame casually mentioned. Hu San also casually listened to her, so the two of them didn't take it to heart.

After all, Hu San had already built three to three big houses, and just his appearance alone was enviable. Plus, he had a large group of wives and concubines, so he didn't want to squeeze into the city. Even if the houses were small, he wouldn't be able to afford those women.

However, he was not sloppy when it came to repairing the house. Everything was settled in half a month...

"Girl, you look pretty good. This is all done in accordance to your request."

In the short span of half a month, the high wall had already been built. Looking at its posture, not to mention an average person, even if there was someone with a bit of foundation, it would still be difficult to enter. Not to mention the fact that they had a trick up their sleeves, if they really did go in, the ones who would suffer would most likely still be behind. Just thinking about it, Hu San couldn't help but ask Jiu Niang for credit …

"Not bad, not bad at all. I really have to thank Grandpa Hu."

He rubbed his hands and took a deep breath of hot air. His cold fingers finally warmed up a little bit.

In any case, he didn't need money for this year's beautiful words, so he wouldn't die even if he spoke a few more words.

However, this Hu San was really not bad. She thought it would be good if she could do it well before the new year. She didn't expect that there was still more than a month until the new year. This would save her a lot of time.

"Tsk tsk, it is not easy to get a good word from a girl like you."

Hu San also smiled. The more he interacted with Jiu Niang, the more he realized that this girl was not normal.

Regardless of whether it was a person's conduct or a person's conduct, despite their young age, they exuded an imposing aura, causing others to have no choice but to believe in them. Even though it was the same thing as charging money for work, how could he say that he was doing something for the girl … En, no grievances! That's right, it meant that he wouldn't feel aggrieved …

This year, this guy always had two pieces of money, but he always looked down on people, especially when they didn't have a good background or a good reputation. Although he did have a few pieces of silver in his pocket, he still met a lot of people looking at him with disdain.

"Thank you so much, Third Master Hu." However, I do have something that I want to trouble Third Master Hu with. "

Jiu Niang had always been one to talk, and Hu San did a good job on this matter.

At least she saved him a lot of time and gave him more time to prepare. Naturally, she wouldn't be short on money, and this kind words, since he didn't want money, he just needed to say a few words of courtesy. If she was happy, why not do it for him?

"What is it?" "Since it's the new year soon anyway, there's nothing to do anyway."

Patting his chest, Hu San did not hesitate to promise.

Just like he said, it was almost New Year's. The weather was freezing cold, and there was nothing to worry about. If there was anything Ninth Madame wanted them to do, they would just treat it as earning some pocket money.

"It's like this. Can you help me find out where I can sell some food?"

Gritting her teeth, even though Nona was a bit hesitant, she still said it out loud in the end.

Originally, she was unwilling to reveal the matter of stocking food. After all, buying a house was not very eye-catching, and stocking food was not something that was ordinary.

Anyone with a bit of experience could see the mystery behind it.

Originally, she wanted to ask Xu Tianlong for help. After all, compared to Hu San, she believed more in Xu Tianshi. In addition, Xu Tianshong's family did business in the first place, so they had many connections in this area.

However, even though she had come looking for him, the Xu family had somehow rushed back to the capital. Even after asking around for a long time, she could only find out that something had happened to some important figure of the family …

"Aiya, what the heck am I doing? It's just rice. "Don't worry, I'll deliver it to you in two days. I'll guarantee that you won't get hungry with that grandmother of yours." Nona's expression was solemn, as if it was hard to say. Hu San thought it was some big deal, but she didn't expect him to only ask to buy some food.

Hu San naturally patted his chest and guaranteed that he would. What kind of trouble was this?

These days, as long as they had money, could it be that they would not be able to buy food? Furthermore, there were only two of them, so how much could they eat?

Looking at Jiu Niang's cautious expression, Hu San couldn't help but want to laugh, but he didn't say it out loud. After all, Jiu Niang was still a child and didn't know much about the outside world.

"Thank you very much." With her hands clasped in front of her, Jiu Niang could no longer say anything else. She could only assume that she had guessed wrongly. Of course, it would be best if he guessed wrongly. Otherwise, his future days would not be so peaceful. However, before Jiu Niang left, she couldn't help but say, "If it's hard to buy rice, then it's fine to buy other grains."

Although Nona reminded him of this, she still hoped that she was overthinking it.

Thinking about it, he was probably thinking too much. He must have known about something earlier than what happened when Hu Santian was just walking outside. Judging from his appearance, the food shouldn't be too hard to get, so he probably thought too much about it.

Of course, Jiu Niang still wished that she had overthought things in her heart.

Although their new home was almost done, all of this still needed to be kept a secret, so it was not good for Nona to stay any longer.

He was just trying to find an excuse to bring his grandma along, so that she wouldn't be suspected by the others, and at the same time, she could leave smoothly. That was the most important thing at the moment.

Looking at Hu San's reaction, Ye Zichen guessed that he was probably overthinking it … But...

In any case, he had prepared everything beforehand. Even if he came to stay for a while, if there were really nothing else, it would be too late to go back then. If something really happened, it wouldn't be easy for him to leave, let alone the two of them, the old one and the young one …

If he was alone, he could hide in the Space for eight or ten days. He wouldn't starve to death anyway. But now there's a grandmother...

"Miss, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Along the way back, Wang Er discovered that something was wrong with Jiu Niang. However, it wasn't good for him to ask, even though they had been together for a while and he knew that she wasn't someone who was hard to get along with. But no matter what, Jiu Niang was the master and they were servants. This was an indisputable fact.

But now that Jiu Niang had called him out, it was probably related to both him and the pockmark.

"It's like this. I have something that I need your help with."

The bad thing about living in this village is that everyone in the village knows about it.

Every time he went out, he could pretend that he was going out to buy some stuff. At first, everyone was curious, but after seeing it so many times, they had gotten used to it. But this time, he was going to bring Grandma with him, so perhaps he wouldn't be able to think of a complete excuse.

After thinking about it for a long time, she finally decided to focus her attention on Wang Er and Ma Zi.

Although they and themselves knew that they were invited by themselves, the people in the village only treated them as grandma's nephew. Although they might not completely believe him, they had lived here for a long time, so they were familiar with each other even though they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

If they brought up this matter again, it would be much better than finding any random excuse.

"Aiyo, that can't be!" This old fogey actually has this kind of shipment? "

"Tsk tsk, you really can't judge a book by its cover. I didn't expect the old widow's life to be so good after being old."

"Look at this carriage. From its posture, I'm afraid everyone in the village can catch up."

Early in the morning, the people in the village were all attracted by a large carriage, and many people crowded around to look. In the morning, the people in the village were attracted to a large carriage, and many people crowded around.

"Hmph, this old fogey won't die!" I don't believe in life! [I am afraid there is nothing wrong here. If there is such a nephew, where did he go in his early days?] "Why don't you come and look after me?"

"That's right, that's right! I think he wants to sell this old thing!"

The Ma wife and daughter-in-law gritted their teeth in hatred for Jiu Niang and the old widow, but they didn't dare to rashly come and find fault with them. They were planning in their hearts: even if they were nephew, could they live with them for the rest of their lives? It wouldn't be too late to wait for the two of them to leave with their dark hearts before coming to take revenge.

It was just that they did not expect the old widow to be taken away by two people who had appeared out of nowhere before they had fully recovered from their injuries. To think that they would be taken away just like that, with such a large carriage.

Speaking of Wang Er and Ma Zi, everyone had their suspicions about them. Logically speaking, if they really were the old widow's nephew, where would they have gone in their early years? The Widow was not a widow for one or two days. She hadn't seen anyone in her early years, so why did she suddenly appear? It wasn't that everyone didn't suspect that they had some sort of ulterior motive … However, it was none of his business. What did the Old Widow's misfortune have to do with them? Everyone just wanted to watch the show.

However, from the looks of it …

"Sigh, I'm afraid this old woman is really lucky."

"That's right, that's right. Look at how sore he is, he's about to lose his teeth."

"Speaking of which, even if that old and ugly guy wants to sell, he still has to."

Everyone also heard the words of the Ma Jia Wife. They would rather have the two of them harboring malicious intentions, but … Everyone understood even more that this old woman must have had a good luck. Just looking at those big horses would cost a lot of money. If she really wanted to scheme something, then she would have to sell them both.

"Hey, we're both humans, why is there such a huge difference in our lives?"

"Yeah, yeah …"

In the midst of the crowd's discussion, Nona supported the Old Widow and followed Wang Er and Hempsey into the carriage. She heard everything those people said, but didn't mind it at all. It was just that …

He took one last look at these people and guessed that … If his guess was right, this place would be completely different in less than two months.

Unfortunately …

It was already good enough that he could protect himself!

Others should pray for their own happiness.

"Grandma, you go in with the two uncles first. I have something to take care of so I'll be back soon."

In less than four hours, he arrived at the new house. When he reached the door, Nona saw Hu San was waiting for him, so she did not rush in, but instead got off at the door.

"Third Master Hu, are you ready?"

Nona was shocked that Hu San would come to find her so soon, but on the surface, no trace of it was revealed …

He continued to smile faintly.

"Little girl, this time …" This time, I have overestimated myself... These... I've done my best, but if it's not enough... "If it is not enough, I will think of another way …"
