Chapter 669 What a good fate
However, the main reason is not the accessories, but the difficulty in arranging the hot water source. She would have to dismantle the home to get a whole water supply and drainage set.
If the trouble outweighs the convenience, forget it.
Hand in the shower, I'm quite used to it. It's good to have a separate bathroom.
Qin Yao walked out of the bathroom with a bit of regret and looked at Liu Ji who was waiting here, "What's the matter?"
As soon as Liu Ji showed that flattering smile, Qin Yao's heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, in the next second, someone came up with the account book and said, "Madam, please look at this, this is our family's food, drink and sundries expenses last month, as well as the expenses for preparing for the housewarming party this month, and what you promised to do." Reimburse me for the expenses.”
“The total is eighty-five taels of silver.”
Qin Yao frowned slightly and took a look at the account. Last month, she spent 10 taels on food, drink and sundries.
Prices in the capital are high and supplies are abundant. The whole family had a hot pot meal just five minutes away from each other, and spent most of the money on spices. They also bought several wines later, and Qin Feng didn't save money eating and drinking at home. These ten taels were still considered Be diligent and thrifty.
Qin Yao said nothing and looked at the expenses for the housewarming party.
We had two meals in total. In the morning, we prepared soup, tea and various snacks and fruits at home. In the afternoon, we ordered eight tables of banquets from the nearby Tianxiang Tower.
The neighbors around are not ordinary people, there are many who work as errands in various governments, and the grade cannot be too low, one table has six taels of silver, and eight tables have forty-eight taels.
Including the expenses for the meal prepared by myself, the housewarming party totaled fifty taels.
There are twenty-five taels left, of which five taels are Liu Ji's pocket money this month and twenty-five taels are what he calls reimbursement.
"Have you eaten the gold? Can you spend twenty taels?" Qin Yao asked with a bad look.
Liu Jilue avoided her cannibalistic eyes with a guilty conscience and argued:
"Isn't it because I can help you, madam, to find out the news from all over the capital as soon as possible? In front of all the noble lords in the capital, I, a nobody, want to attract their attention, so I can only use some extraordinary means."
"I didn't know that the tea in that building was so expensive. I thought it was similar to our Zijin Mansion Teahouse. I would like to treat everyone in the building to a medium-sized cup of tea, which would cost eighty taels at most. Who knew that it would cost three taels when I check out?" It's twelve taels!”
Qin Yao frowned: "What about these twenty taels?"
"I can't really be taken advantage of. I fought hard to get these twenty taels. I'm already very economical. Madam -" Liu Ji deliberately prolonged the ending and looked at her pitifully.
What else can Qin Yao say?
I could only give him a kick on the calf, "I thought you were more capable, but it turns out it all depends on your ability!"
Liu Ji jumped ten meters away on one foot, hissing and gasping for air while curiously asking: "What is the ability to copy?"
Qin Yao strode back to her room in the backyard, took out a handful of silver nuggets and threw them into his arms, "This is money's ability! Money's money, you understand?"
Liu Ji grabbed the silver nuggets and would have laughed out loud if he hadn't been afraid of being beaten again.
Compared with silver, what is the painless soreness in the calf?
Liu Ji said to Qin Yao seriously: "Madam, I don't mind if you give me more money and beat me to death."
Qin Yao: "What the hell!"
As soon as his fist was raised, someone ran faster than a rabbit with a piece of silver in his arms.
“It's a joke, madam, don't take it seriously!”
Liu Ji turned around and shouted to the backyard: "I saw someone selling rice dumplings on the street. I'll buy some and bring them back for us to eat during the festival tomorrow!"
Sanlang and Siniang, who were still catching Wu Du in various places in the house, gave up and said, "Dad, we are going too!"
The twins rushed out like a cannonball and caught up with their father. The father and son headed towards the main street laughing and joking. From a distance, Qin Yao could still hear Liu Ji's big liar:
“My father has a lot of money in his pocket. We can buy whatever we want today, but we are not freeloaders. We have to wash clothes and clean the windows for my father when we get home, right?”
Saburo: "Yeah, yeah, let's eat meat rice dumplings~"
Si Niang: "Yes, yes, yes." Let's get the delicious food first.
She is a child, and her father will definitely not care about this little work with her.
Dalang and Erlang, who stayed home to work because they couldn't run fast, looked at each other and shrugged helplessly, not knowing who was fooling whom.
In the evening, Liu Fei came.
After all, it was the first day for Sister-in-law San and her family to move. He was too busy during the day to help, but now that he was off work, he had to congratulate her.
Liu Fei brought two large roast geese. The skin was crispy and the meat was tender. The fragrance made people drool.
Qin Yao, who was still happily eating meat rice dumplings, suddenly felt that the rice dumplings in her hands were no longer fragrant.
“Why are you here?”
Liu Ji was the first to rush forward and stretched out his hand to take the big roast goose: "Look, you are here as soon as you come. Why are you so polite to bring something? Is it possible that my brothers and brothers still don't give you food to eat?"
"Third sister-in-law!" Liu Fei bypassed him, handed the big roast goose to Awang, and said with a smile: "Freshly baked crispy roast goose, the signature of Jiuchonglou, usually can't be queued up, so I specially found someone I went squatting early in the morning before dawn, and only then did I grab two.”
Qin Yao nodded gratefully to him and told Awang: "Keep one for the festival tomorrow, and chop the other to eat tonight."
The children cheered when they heard the words, and the uncles and uncles shouted affectionately.
Liu Ji, who was ignored, was only embarrassed for a second, and then he stepped forward and hugged his younger brother's shoulders like a normal person.
“Dinner will take a while, let's go, Third Brother will show you this house!”
“Don't leave tonight. Stay at home. My brother won't be able to charge you rent. If you have any good things to eat later, you can eat as much as you want at home.”
As the two brothers talked, they entered Liu Ji's new study first. It was spacious, bright and beautiful!
Liu Fei glanced at him enviously, "There will never be anyone else in the world who treats you as well as my third sister-in-law."
Liu Ji stretched out a finger and shook it from side to side, "No, no, no."
With a mysterious wave of his hand, he signaled Liu Fei to come over and said, "I am now deeply favored by my uncle. My uncle bought this house for me."
After saying that, he raised his handsome eyebrows and folded his arms, waiting for Liu Fei to show an expression of envy and hatred.
However, the other party was not at all envious or jealous.
Liu Fei looked his third brother up and down and marveled, "How can there be such a shameless person like you in this world?"
"Third brother, now that third sister-in-law has found her family, you live in someone else's house and spend their money, I think you should just marry into another family, otherwise I, the younger brother, will take advantage of third sister-in-law's natal family. My face always feels hot."
Unsurprisingly, Liu Ji got a chestnut in anger.
"Is your surname Liu or Qin? If you turn your elbows outward like this, I will beat you to death!"
Under the suppression of blood, Liu Fei covered his forehead and did not dare to speak anymore. He followed his excited third brother through the entire house.
From time to time, he said "Wow" in cooperation, and tears of envy flowed from the corners of his mouth.
His third brother, what a blessing!
