Chapter 144 The Little Maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion 8

So while waiting for the medicine to be boiled, Chu Yuan took him aside to have a chat.

"Yang'er, tell your sister if you didn't sleep well in the academy?"

"No, I'm doing very well in the academy."

Chu Yuan pinched his face angrily. This kid has learned to lie now: "Next time before you lie to others, remember to look in the mirror first. The dark circles under your eyes are almost bigger than your eyes."

Chu Yang knew he was in the wrong, so he didn’t argue: “I’m sorry, sister.”

"Yang'er, if you don't have a good rest in this academy, we can change to another one, or I can buy a small house near the academy in a few days, and you can go home to rest after school every day."

Chu Yang refused repeatedly: "No need, sister. I didn't get a bad rest. I just wanted to use the evening time to memorize more books."

Now Chu Yuan understood why he became much weaker after only being in school for half a month.

As for the reason why he studied so hard, Chu Yuan could roughly guess it.

I guess this kid feels that he is the only man in the family now, and he wants to make a name for himself as soon as possible, so as to provide a good life for his older sister.

It must be said that she was right, and this was exactly what had motivated Chu Yang to study.

Chu Yuan felt relieved that his younger brother was so sensible, but at the same time he didn't want him to bear such great pressure at such a young age.

The two took this opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk. Fortunately, Chu Yang was not a stubborn person. He quickly understood what his sister meant and promised that he would never do that again.

After resting at home for two days, Chu Yuan sent him to the academy again. Before parting, he repeatedly reminded him to balance work and rest.

If she notices that he has dark circles under his eyes or has lost weight again during the next holiday, she will no longer send him to school.

Chu Yang repeatedly assured himself that he would take good care of himself, and only then did Chu Yuan let him go.

Watching her brother walk into the academy, she came to the Yahang. The house they lived in now was too far away from the inner city. It took half a day to go to Nishang Pavilion every time.

She originally wanted to save up a few months' dividends and buy a larger yard outside the inner city, near the west side of the city.

But this younger brother is a worry to him. Chu Yuan is worried that he can't take care of himself at such a young age, so he plans to bring this plan forward.

If you don’t have enough silver, you can use the money in your space to make up for it.

Chu Yuan had a good impression of the broker from last time, so he chose him again this time.

"Girl, now that you are here, what do you want to buy this time?"

"Young man, I want to see a house, preferably one that is closer to the inner city and Hengchuan Academy."

When the broker heard her request, he felt a little impressed by the girl.

When they met for the first time, the little girl came to him with her younger brother, all dirty, saying that she wanted to sell herself and begged him to find a better owner for her.

Fortunately, both children are well-educated and good-looking. The prime minister's residence happened to send someone to notify them yesterday that they wanted to select a few maids and servants, and the two of them were a good match.

They didn't expect that they would be chosen by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and together with their partner, it was also their good fortune.

The second time they met was a year later, and they actually came to buy a house.

Who would have thought that a maid who had signed a death contract would one day be restored to good status, and it only took one year.

The third time they met was this time. In a month, they had to move from the suburbs to the outer city.

From what she said, the location of the house should be the best.

Only high-ranking officials and nobles can live in the inner city, so for ordinary people like them, the houses outside the inner city are the best.

In addition, it was also required to be close to the academy, which made it even better.

In just a few seconds, the broker had a lot of thoughts in his mind. It seemed that this girl was a capable one, so he had to treat her well and make a good relationship with her.

"There are a few houses like this, but I don't know what size you want, young lady?"

"My brother and I live together, so we just need a courtyard with two entrances."

Listen, listen! Two people want to live in a two-story house, how luxurious.

It's a pity that he has worked hard in the capital for so many years, but his family is still squeezed in three rooms. He silently shed a few bitter tears in his heart.

The guy took out a picture album and found four houses that met his requirements, with prices similar to the same.

After Chu Yuan went to see them one by one, he chose the one with the best geographical location. The house was also big enough to accommodate servants when he bought one.

But this price is really expensive. After the guy gave her a decimal point, he still wanted 6300 taels.

Chu Yuan first paid a deposit of 300 taels of silver, and then went home to get the remaining money.

In fact, the silver was all in her space, but it was filled with silver ingots. To take out 6000 taels, she would need to use several large boxes.

So Chu Yuan hired a carriage and made another trip to the money house to exchange the bills for the young man.

After signing the deed and going to the government for certification, the house was registered under Chu Yang's name.

This dynasty was still relatively backward, and women were not allowed to live independently, so all the property in their family belonged to Chu Yang.

The 6000 taels had already been spent and she didn't need much else, so she directly bought an experienced housekeeper, two cooks, three maids, three servants, a doorman and a coachman from the broker.

From now on, they can be considered a wealthy family.

These people all looked honest and kind, and after paying the money, they followed Chu Yuan back.

On the way back, Chu Yuan bought two good horses, one for pulling the cart and the other for herself to ride.

The driver she chose was a soldier guarding the border when he was young. He was injured in a war and had a limp.

Although she couldn't do many heavy tasks, she was more than capable of driving a cart and teaching her how to ride a horse.

With the excuse of learning to ride, she was finally able to buy a horse of her own.

On the third day after buying the house, Chu Yuan officially moved in. From then on, she lived a life of having food and clothes provided for her.

I have to say that the two chefs she chose have good skills. Basically, as long as Chu Yuan describes the dish she wants to eat, they can make it 50% similar.

Half a month later, it was the day for Hengchuan Academy's monthly holiday. Chu Yuan specially got on his own carriage and arrived at the gate of the academy early in the morning.

After Chu Yang came out, he looked everywhere for his sister, because his sister had said last time that she would come to pick him up.

Soon, a carriage appeared in his sight, with two lanterns with the word "Chu" written on them hanging on it.

Then, I saw my sister’s face from the car window.

"Yang'er, this way."

Chu Yang got on the carriage with a lot of questions in his mind: "Sister, is this our carriage?"

"Yes, my sister bought a new yard with the dividend she received this month. We will no longer live in the suburbs."

At this time, Chu Yang had not yet realized what kind of shock he was about to face.

He was so naive that he thought his sister was worried about him and actually bought a small house in the west of the city.
