Chapter 767: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 28
Of course, if Baobao knew what Xiao Yunzhou was thinking, he would only sneer at him for thinking too much. After all, he had seen the actions of this big man in so many dimensions.
How to say it, this is a man who is content with having a wife. He has a warm home and a happy career. It will be even more so after marriage.
The other party never lets down his guard against others. He is just like a person holding a treasure, always worried that someone will steal his treasure, so he keeps getting stronger and stronger until everyone becomes trash.
A few days passed after that hug, and life seemed to have not changed much, except that books began to pile up on the table in the thatched hut, which was not very big to begin with.
Perhaps also, the paint on Xiao Yunzhou's face was starting to fade away, and his originally handsome appearance could already be seen.
But they are not biological siblings after all, and even if they are, there is no reason for them to live together.
When Miaomiao was renovating the hut, she only built a main house and a room with a stove. Later, because Xiao Yunzhou was recuperating at her place, she built a small bed and placed it in the corner.
But the main house was not big. The two beds were separated by a table and a mat woven with bamboo strips.
In the past, it could be said that the house had not been changed much in order to save money, and because Miaomiao was a martial arts expert and could protect Xiao Yunzhou, but now that the threat has been lifted, Miaomiao feels that the place is really too small.
In the past few days, Miaomiao had wanted to suggest many times that Xiao Yunzhou move to the town, but every time she thought of it, she remembered the hug that made her shoulders wet.
Miaomiao didn't even dare to mention it. Xiao Yunzhou was really a sensitive brother.
Miaomiao understood that, considering Xiao Yunzhou's sensitive personality and his longing for family, perhaps they could go to the town together?
When Miaomiao rolled up the last piece of animal skin, it was getting dark. The sunlight was slanting through the wooden hairpin in her hair. Xiao Yunzhou was not reading beside her, but helping her pack the medicine basket.
This was the medicinal herbs that Butcher Wang asked her to find when she went to town some time ago. He said that someone in the county would buy them and the price was very reasonable.
Miaomiao didn't want to hunt anymore, so sometimes when she went to the mountains, in addition to looking for medicinal herbs to increase her income, she would occasionally set traps to find prey, and then bring them back for the two of them to eat as a snack.
But now, looking at the gradually dimming room and the small spaces where the two people lived, she suddenly felt very boring.
It's time for a change.
"Let's go to town."
Miaomiao suddenly stood up and patted the dandruff off her clothes.
"I went to town a few days ago. I don't know if you noticed that there was a courtyard with a well at the entrance of the alley. Although it's not big, it's in a good location in town.
The most important thing is that I asked Butcher Wang privately, and he said he would sell it for thirty taels of silver.
And there were people living there before, so it wasn't dilapidated.
We can buy everything we need in town, or we can go over there and have a look tonight."
Miaomiao looked at the sun outside and it wasn't too late.
Thirty taels.
Xiao Yunzhou silently calculated in his mind that the gold leaves that the secret guards had previously transported from the secret cellar in Jiangnan weighed a hundred kilograms, and this was only a small part of what he had taken out from the Gao family's secret silver storage place.
That’s right, the Gao family was indeed investigated. Although there is no specific result yet, it is certain that they will not have a good ending. The money that was saved before must be kept as much as possible.
They didn't dare send anyone to the place where the money was hidden, for fear that something would be found, but this made things convenient for Xiao Yunzhou.
When he investigated these things in his previous life, he found out that the Gao family, like their Xiao family, would keep a lot of money away from them so that their descendants could have capital to recover in case something happened to them.
Unfortunately, except for one of the Gao family's descendants who became the Crown Princess, the old ancestor also died without leaving any trace after harming their Xiao family.
The rest of the people like Gao Shiqi are all people who indulge in sensual pleasures. It would be safer to keep the money in my own hands than to keep it with them.
He wanted to put everything in Miaomiao's hands, but after testing her with words, he did not get the result he wanted.
Xiao Yunzhou now does whatever Miaomiao says. Even if she gets up in the middle of the night and asks Xiao Yunzhou to accompany her to look at the stars and the moon, he will definitely not say a word, let alone just going to check on the house in the evening.
"I'll listen to my sister. It doesn't matter where we are, as long as we don't separate."
That’s right, this is his bottom line. As long as they don’t separate, he is willing to follow Miaomiao anywhere. In fact, selfishly speaking, Xiao Yunzhou likes his current house very much.
Although it was just a thatched hut, they could be very close to each other. At night, he could even hear Miaomiao's breathing when she fell asleep. That feeling of closeness made his throat tighten just thinking about it.
Miaomiao didn't have time to care about the hidden thoughts behind Xiao Yunzhou's statement. She just subconsciously felt that the little brother was very sensitive.
After all, the other party still has a blood feud, and he is not a moron, so who would think about romance?
Not to mention, in the original storyline, Xiao Yunzhou was a lone minister, a single man who never got married, had no one he loved, and even had no children.
For a Xiao Yunzhou like Miaomiao to feel his hidden feelings for her, it was absolutely ridiculous for Miaomiao, a slow-witted saint.
The two of them walked quite fast. When it was just getting dark, Miaomiao had already brought Xiao Yunzhou into the narrow alley.
"That's it."
She stopped in front of the courtyard gate with green tiles and white walls. The patina of the door knocker was dyed golden red by the setting sun, which made Miaomiao inexplicably fond of it.
I was indeed considering it before, I just knew the place, but I was a bit lazy and reluctant to change places.
Now that I see this house for sale, I suddenly feel full of confidence in the future. Life really does get better and better.
Xiao Yunzhou followed Miaomiao's actions, as long as she was happy.
Miaomiao arrived at the gate of the courtyard and saw a notice posted on the side. She then realized that the owner of the house had long ago given the house to an agent in the town to take full management. The owner had moved to Kyoto, so the house was indeed a very prosperous one.
After that, I found an agent, looked at houses and bought one. The whole process was over in less than an hour.
In the end, Miaomiao spent thirty taels of silver to buy this pretty good house in the town. Because someone had been cleaning it before, the house looked very clean and not overgrown with weeds.
Even the beds and quilts in the house are complete and new, which Miaomiao is very satisfied with.
Finally, I can sleep in a room by myself...
