After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Awang glanced at the women who were mumbling to each other in the distance with annoyance.

A few people were frightened by his eyes and their voices became quieter, but they were also sure that this family had no official position, and they curled their lips in disdain.

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

The two servants didn't expect to meet a saw-mouthed gourd. They snorted unhappily, left him aside, and stood at the door of Dr. Cui's house to inquire inside.

But before they could take a closer look, a group of people came out.

Qin Yao glanced coldly, and she heard the words outside the door clearly, and her eyes were even more sharp when she glanced at the two servants.

The two servants met each other suddenly, and their hearts jumped fiercely. They hurriedly stepped aside and muttered secretly, who are these people? They were so fierce after just a few glances. I'm afraid they are bandits!

Don't be attracted by Dr. Cui's house. If you become neighbors with such a person, the master and the young lady of the family will have to be on guard against theft and robbery.

"Let's go to the next house." Qin Yao said to the house-viewing clerk.

He looked up at the servants and women around him who were spitting and looking down on others. He vaguely understood why the clerk was hesitant to speak before.

Everyone turned to Kuanzhengfang.

The layout of the houses on both sides is actually similar. Kuanzhengfang is indeed newer. There is a well in the yard, which makes it 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 house in Xiuxingfang. The yard has not been repaired much and is very sloppy. Overall, it is not as beautiful as the previous one.

But these are all secondary things. Aesthetics are different for everyone. If you don't like it, you can change it yourself.

The house of Xiaosanjin has a total of twelve rooms in front and back, and the rooms are large and small.

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

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

The rest of the rooms have plenty of light, but the yard is a little small. It is not a separate house, and the wall is close to the neighbors on both sides.

"This is very convenient for eavesdropping." Liu Ji laughed, and his gossip spirit was burning.

The children were a little tired. These houses looked almost the same, nothing special, and the excitement soon faded after seeing a few.

Qin Yao asked Liu Ji and Awang to take them out for a walk, and she, Qin Feng and Yin Le stayed to check each house to see if there was any damage.

Seeing her attitude, the guy almost knew what was going on. If he didn't like it, he would definitely not look so carefully.

However, seeing Qin Yao and the other two carefully inspecting, he couldn't help but get nervous.

Qin Yao pointed to the beams of the hall as soon as she entered the courtyard, "What kind of material is this wooden beam made of?"

The waiter immediately answered: "Ironwood, anti-corrosion and anti-insect, the best material, very strong."

"This well doesn't have a guardrail or anything, it's so bare, what if a child falls in?" Yin Le stood by the well and shook his head.

The waiter hurriedly said: "Don't worry, girl, this well is absolutely clean. Besides, the guardrail is not simple. You can find a few bricks to build a fence later."

Qin Feng went to the back door and looked at the waiter with dissatisfaction: "You didn't say that the stable is so broken just now."

The waiter smiled bitterly, "Eight out of ten families in Beijing raise horses. This family originally raised horses, but they were tired of the smell and changed to riding in a sedan chair, leaving the stable idle. However, the stable shed is built solidly, and it will be fine if the roof is repaired."

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

He is rich, but don't expect him to pay a penny that he shouldn't pay.

The waiter was in a dilemma when Qin Yao found another problem, saying that the drainage in the second courtyard was blocked. If it was not cleared, the rainy season would come soon, and the house would be flooded.

The waiter sighed: "Don't worry, I will discuss with the owner later. The price should be able to go down a bit. How about we make an appointment with the owner tomorrow to talk about it?"

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

The waiter was happy, it seemed that the guests were quite satisfied with this house.

But in fact, what Qin Yao was most satisfied with was not the house, but the surrounding environment - not exclusive.

The houses here are big and small, some have their own doors and some have several families living together in a large courtyard.

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

There was an old lady sitting by the door picking vegetables. When she saw a newcomer, she would ask enthusiastically: "What are you doing here?" "Oh, I'm looking at houses. That house is really square." You can meet such a warm and gossipy daughter-in-law and mother-in-law every few steps in the alley. There was curiosity and scrutiny in her eyes, but no superiority and contempt. Because the door was basically open, the situation of each family could be seen at a glance, and the conditions were much better than those in Yongtongfang. Compared with Yongtongfang where Qin Feng's family is now, the people in Kuanzhengfang are neatly dressed, and bright colors are not uncommon. There are people who don't have to go out to work and stay at home to do housework. You can also see children eating seasonal fruits and maltose. It's not to say how rich they are, but they are definitely well-off. These neighbors have accents from all over the country, and more than half of them are from other places. They get along very well with local residents. When Qin Yao and his sister came out with the servants after looking at the house, Liu Ji had successfully infiltrated the gossiping women in front of the fruit stall with his four children. The twins, a boy and a girl, each held a plum given by 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 here and show your aunts a golden rooster independence performance!"

"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.

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! Just like the morning dew, the past days will be more bitter."

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

"Xianggong Liu, your two sons have been well educated."

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

"Yes, yes, and that boy of mine is good at wielding swords and swords all day long. He is worried that he has no partner to practice martial arts with."

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