After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 665

Chapter 665 Not exclusive

Awang glanced boredly at the women muttering next to each other in the distance.

A few people were frightened by his eyes, and their voices became softer, but they were also sure that this family had no official positions, so they curled up their lips with disdain.

As for the two servants who were inquiring around him, Awang simply ignored them, patted the horse's head, took out a handful of soybeans from his pocket and fed them to Lao Huang.

The two servants did not expect to encounter a saw-headed gourd. They grunted angrily, left him alone, and stood at the door of Dr. Cui's house to pry inside.

But before I even took a second look, a group of people came out.

Qin Yao glanced coldly, she could clearly hear the chattering outside the door, and the eyes she glanced at the two servants were even more fierce.

The two families suddenly faced each other, their hearts skipped a beat, and they hurriedly stepped aside, muttering to themselves, "Who is this person?" They just looked at each other twice and became so fierce, I'm afraid they're not bandits!

Don't take a fancy to Dr. Cui's house. If you become a neighbor with such a person, the master, young master and ladies of the house will have to beware of theft and robbery.

“Let's go to the next house.” Qin Yao said to the housekeeper.

He raised his head again and looked at the servants and women around him who were squeaking and looking down on others, and he vaguely understood why the waiter was so reluctant to speak.

Everyone turned to Kuanzhengfang.

The layout of the houses on both sides is actually similar. The Kuanzhengfang side is indeed newer. There is a well in the yard and it is convenient to get water.

The original owner also left a lot of furniture, but it doesn't look as high-end and beautiful as the one in the monastery. The courtyard has not been repaired very much and is very sloppy. Overall, it is not as beautiful as the previous one.

But these are secondary things. Aesthetics is something that varies from person to person. If you don't like it, you can change it yourself.

The house that Xiao San entered had twelve rooms in total, some large and some small.

Finally, the third courtyard is divided into two independent small courtyards on the left and right. Qin Yao particularly likes this.

As the children grow up, there will definitely be more than that many people in the family. When the time comes, they will live in separate houses, which will save them a lot of worry.

Each of the remaining rooms has sufficient lighting, but the courtyard is a bit small and is not a single house. The courtyard walls are close to the neighbors on the left and right.

“This is very convenient for listening to the corner.” Liu Ji chuckled, the spirit of gossip burning.

The children were already a little tired. The houses all looked similar, and there was nothing particularly new. After seeing a few of them, the excitement quickly subsided.

Qin Yao asked Liu Ji and Awang to take them out for a walk. She, Qin Feng and Yin Le stayed behind and went from house to house to check if there was any damage.

Looking at her attitude, the clerk almost knew it. If he hadn't taken a fancy to her, he would definitely not have looked at her so carefully.

However, seeing Qin Yao and the others carefully investigating, he couldn't help but become nervous.

Qin Yao pointed to the beams in the hall upon entering the courtyard, "What material are these wooden beams made of?"

The clerk immediately replied: "Iron wood is resistant to rot and insects. It is the best material and is strong."

“This well doesn't have a guardrail or anything. It's just so bare. What if a child falls in?” Yin Le stood by the well and kept shaking his head.

The boy quickly said: "Don't worry, girl, this well is absolutely clean. Besides, the guardrail is not simple. Just go back and find a few bricks to build a fence."

Qin Feng went to the back door and looked at the waiter dissatisfied: "You didn't tell me that the stable was so shabby just now."

The waiter smiled bitterly, "Eight of the ten households in Beijing raise horses. This family used to raise horses, but because they found it smelly, they switched to sedans and left the stables unused. However, the stables are well built and the roof needs to be repaired. It's no big deal.”

"Who will pay for the repairs?" Qin Feng asked.

He is rich, but he should not be expected to pay a penny of his own money.

The boy was in a dilemma. Qin Yao found out the problem again and said that the sewer at the second entrance was blocked and it would be better if it was not cleared. The rainy season was about to begin and what should I do if the house was flooded? The waiter lamented: "Don't worry, I'll discuss it with the owner later. The price should be lowered. How about we make an appointment with the owner tomorrow and let's talk together?"

Qin Yao and Qin Feng looked at each other and said, "Okay!"

The waiter was very happy. It seemed that the guests were quite satisfied with this place.

But in fact, what makes Qin Yao most satisfied is not the house, but the surrounding environment - it is not exclusive.

The houses here range from large to small, some are single-family homes, and there are also cases where several families rent together in a large courtyard.

Walking into the square, most of the houses have their doors open.

There are ladies who are sitting by the door choosing vegetables. When they see new people coming from outside, they will enthusiastically ask:

“What do you do?”

“Oh, look at the house. That house is really square.”

You can walk a few steps in the alley and meet such an enthusiastic and gossipy wife. Her eyes are curious and appreciative, but not condescending or contemptuous.

Because the door is basically open, the conditions of each house can be seen at a glance, which is much better than the conditions in Yongtongfang.

Compared with Yongtongfang where Qin Feng's family is now located, people here in Kuanzhengfang are neatly dressed and bright colors are not uncommon.

There are people at home who do not have to work outside to stay and take care of the housework. You can also see children with seasonal fruits and caramels to eat. No matter how wealthy you are, you must be well-off.

These neighbors have accents from all over the world, more than half of them are from other places, and they get along very well with the local residents.

By the time the brother and sister Qin Yao came out after viewing the house and the waiter, Liu Ji had already successfully infiltrated the gossiping women in front of the fruit stall with his four children.

Each of the twins took a plum from someone unknown and played with the three or four-year-old babies next to them who had not yet gone to school.

Liu Ji and Dalang Erlang, father and son, were surrounded by a group of aunts and mothers-in-law, watching Liu Ji introduce how smart and capable his two sons were.

“Da Lang, come and perform a golden rooster independence show for the aunts!”

"Erlang, haven't you memorized Cao Cao's poems? Go and show your voice to the mothers-in-law!"

Dalang looked embarrassed, but he still tried his best to smile. Spread your arms, lift your left foot, stand up with only one right foot, and make a golden rooster independent movement.

Liu Ji pushed his waist, but the young man remained motionless, as steady as an old tree root deeply rooted in the soil.

The aunts and mothers-in-law all showed expressions of surprise and clapped excitedly: "Okay, okay!"

The elder brother has shown his performance, but what about the younger brother?

Everyone's expectant eyes fell on Erlang.

The young boy twitched his eyes, took a deep breath, stood with his hands behind his hands, raised his head slightly and looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

“Singing to wine, how much life is like! It's like morning dew, there will be more bitterness in the days to come.”

The ladies looked at each other. Although they didn't understand, they felt it was very powerful.

“Xiangong Liu, your two sons have been well educated.”

"When will you move here? Then I will ask my boy to come over and learn from your Erlang."

“Yes, yes, and that boy of mine is good at wielding swords and swords all day long, but he is worried about not having a partner to practice martial arts with.”

Liu Ji responded with ease, "Wherever it goes, it will be as soon as possible."
