Chapter 241 Buying a Home

After Li Ling passed the Jinshi, he planned to live in the capital for a long time, so he naturally could not always live in Li Ge's home.↖

He chose a house close to the Hanlin Academy among the industries purchased by Dachang Money House, and wanted to move there with Li Yanyu and others.

Li Yanyu and her son and Angelababy naturally had to move in with him, and Zhang also wanted to live in the new house like him.

Before leaving, Li Ling gave Li Ge Lao a real version of "Lady of Guo's Spring Outing" written by the Tang Dynasty and several calligraphy and paintings by the scholars of the current dynasty.

I thought Mr. Li would refuse, but I didn't expect that when Li Ling handed these paintings to Mr. Li, he accepted them all.

"These calligraphy and paintings are all good things. Usually I can't see each other when I see each other. I accept all these things, just treat them as a betrothal gift to Yan Yu!" Mr. Li smiled happily and watched every calligraphy and painting repeatedly.

"It should be, it should be!" Li Ling echoed in the voice.

Li Ge Lao was honest all his life and never received gifts from others.

This time, he was unreasonable to calligraphy and painting, but in fact he treated Li Ling as his son and nephew.

But what Li Ling didn't know was that Mr. Li did not leave these calligraphy and paintings. He played with them for a few days and gave them to several old friends.

The precious calligraphy and painting are a wealth and a constraint for children and grandchildren. Li Ge Lao did not want his descendants to be arrogant and extravagant because of their wealth.

Li Ling and his friends moved to the new house. The yard was very large. Even Angelababy felt lonely. She suggested buying two maids.

Of course, everyone would not object, so Li Ling asked Yazi from Beijing to help choose a few diligent maids.

The house is not only very wide in battle, but also has unique garden landscape layouts, including flowers, birds, fish and insects, lakes and mountains.

When it comes to this house, it is also very famous in the capital.

In his early years, a poor and out-of-date son ranked first in the second-tier Jinshi. When the wealthy businessman in Beijing announced his achievements, he sent a matchmaker to tell his only daughter about marriage.

The girl is as beautiful as a fairy, and she has made a good story.

After the wealthy businessman passed away, the huge garden was left to the old Hanlin.

Hanlin had no other choice in his life, so he liked to study garden design.

He spent his whole life building this yard, but his descendants could not keep it after his death.

After the old man left, his sons lost all his huge family business within a few years. The three sons turned their attention to the garden.

They asked to sell the garden and replace it with a small courtyard.

The old lady refused at first, but in the end she was so embarrassed by her children and grandchildren that she agreed to betray her.

However, she has two conditions: one is to ask for 300,000 taels of silver, and the other is to sell the garden to someone who truly knows how to appreciate it.

There are a few people in the capital who are willing to pay 300,000 taels of silver. The giant merchants just want to buy a good garden to show off in front of others.

The old lady refused to sell the garden to these people. She felt that Old Hanlin was watching her every move in the sky, and she could not disappoint her husband.

Knowing that Li Ling was going to Beijing to rely on the imperial examination, the shopkeeper of the Beijing branch of Dachang Money Village took action personally, saying that the garden was bought for the boss.

Dachang Money House is not only willing to pay the old lady 300,000 taels of silver, but also willing to help them choose a suitable residence in Beijing.

The old lady actually agreed!

Her husband's hometown is also in Jiangnan, and the old Hanlin's parents were also killed by Japanese pirates!

Although they agreed to betray the garden, the old lady had many descendants, and it was said that it was difficult to reconcile. The family continued to delay. It was not until a few days ago that they chose a new house and moved there.

Yazi brought four maids, and Li Ling kept them all.

Li Yanyu's mother was originally a palace maid, so she naturally knew how to manage these slaves. She was naturally relieved to take care of Li Ling together.

In order to take care of each other, Angelababy and Li Yanyu lived in two rooms next to the main room.

"Li Ling, have you noticed that Yan Yu has been in a bad condition these two days? His eyes are red, and he seems to have not had a good sleep!" Angelababy reminded Li Ling to pay more attention to Li Yanyu.

Although everyone is in a bad condition when they just entered the new house, Li Yanyu seems to be in a worse condition.

"I will definitely pay more attention!" Li Ling pulled Angelababy to sit on a stone.

He has been enjoying the scenery in the garden these two days, but he actually forgot about Li Yanyu. This girl is usually very afraid of any novel things. No wonder she can't sleep at night.

"Yinger, are you still used to living in the capital?" Li Ling asked seriously.

Too many things happened. When he and Li Yanyu got engaged, they didn't even consider the feelings of their fiancée.

"I, I'm fine, I'm just a little worried about my father and uncle!" Yang Ying continued to see that Li Ling's face was not strange, "The soldiers on the frontier are so hard. Sometimes they can't even eat salt..."

After seeing the strength of Dachang Money House, Angelababy wanted her fiancé to take care of the soldiers at the border, but she never said these words.

She was not sure whether Li Ling could give up her wealth.

"I know what you want to say! Dachang Money House will branch to the northwest border to solve this problem. In the future, they will sell salt from Jiangnan to the northwest, and sell it to local people and the army at a cost price!" Li Ling said to her with a smile.

In fact, Li Ling has already started to make arrangements in the northwest. The shopkeepers in the northwest of Dachang Money House are not simple businessmen. Many of them are from Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Jinyiwei and Dongchang are both Li Ling's partners. When they wanted to install eyeliners in Dachang Money House, Li Ling unconditionally chose to agree.

The person in charge of both sides clearly told Li Ling that the purpose of their doing this was to spy on the military situation at the border.

The soldiers in Jiangnan could no longer stay in the salt field after several months of training.

Most of them joined the team that escorted salt and would accompany the salt merchants to the northwest.

A small part of them entered the capital, and Li Ling planned to let Xiaoba take these people to the border after some time.

Since they have chosen to join the army, the battlefield is their destination.

Angelababy didn't know what Li Ling did in secret, no wonder she doubted her fiancé's position.

"What you said is true?" Angelababy asked excitedly. With the support of Dachang Money House, the soldiers will live better and have stronger combat effectiveness.

"Of course it's true!" Li Ling took the opportunity to pull her into his arms.

At night, Li Yanyu's room was still as bright as daytime. She ordered people to light a few candles in her room, while she herself sat neatly at the corner of the bed, trembling.

Li Ling observed at the door of the room for a long time, and his nose felt a little sad.

He wanted to push the door and entered but found that the door was stuck!

"Yan Yu, open the door and let me in!" Li Ling shouted outside.

Li Yanyu was extremely afraid inside. The bigger the house, the more scared she was. She had insomnia every day these days.

But everyone was very excited just now when they moved into a new house, so she could only hide these depressions in her heart.

Hearing Li Ling's shout, she walked to the door and opened the door in three steps.

All the fear in my heart was dispelled at once.

"Silly girl!" Li Ling combed her messy hair and carried Li Yanyu to bed again: "I'll be by my side to watch you fall asleep tonight!"

Li Yanyu stared at him with big eyes for a while, and finally fell asleep!
