Chapter 515;
Buying a House
"Huh? Why did that girl suddenly come to this palace?"
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment when she heard the servant's report, then she put down the flower arrangement in her hand with a smile.
"Mother Li, go and invite that girl over. I haven't seen her for a long time."
For Lu Yaoyao, the eldest princess likes her very much, especially now that this is her future sibling, the relationship is even more different.
Aunt Li responded and stepped back.
Not long after, Lu Yaoyao arrived at the eldest princess's yard.
"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I am taking the liberty to disturb you. I am not causing any trouble to you, am I?"
"Okay, there's no need to be polite. What's the point of being presumptuous as a family? From now on, you can come over whenever you want without having to inform me."
The eldest princess smiled and waved her hand.
The sentence "family" made Lu Yaoyao stunned at first, but he quickly came to his senses.
Isn’t it just a family?
"Also, don't call her Your Highness the eldest princess. Just call her Imperial Sister."
"Wouldn't this be good?"
Lu Yaoyao was a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong? The emperor has decreed a marriage, so why can't you object? That's resisting the decree."
"Ah, don't dare."
Resisting the edict could cost lives, but Lu Yaoyao did not dare to do so. Besides, she had already planned to fight with King Jin, so she would not resist the edict.
"Come, call Sister Huang and listen."
"Sister Royal."
Hearing this, the eldest princess laughed and was in a good mood.
"When do you and Prince Jin plan to settle the matter?"
Lu Yaoyao did not hide anything, and told all the things he had discussed with King Jin.
"Your villa is really nice. It's not far from the capital, so it's not too far away. That's good."
"It's just a little late, but it doesn't matter. There won't be much peace outside in the past few years."
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao also understood what the eldest princess was referring to, and did not answer. He smiled and said, "I came here today because I have something that I hope the imperial sister can help with."
"Oh? Whatever it is, just ask."
Later, Lu Yaoyao told her that her cousin was getting married and her husband did not have a house in the capital yet, so he planned to buy one.
"I heard that the imperial sister had a three-in-one yard that she wanted to sell. I was a little anxious about the wedding, so I came over directly."
"Your cousin is getting married? The young master of that family?"
"He is not a young master from the capital, but he is my cousin's childhood sweetheart, but I missed him because of some things before, and then..."
She simply missed the two of them and talked about Wu Jun's subsequent changes.
"Then they are quite destined, which is good. My house has been vacant for a long time. If you need it, I can just give it to you, but it won't be worth much."
The eldest princess has a lot of properties in her name, and she also has a fiefdom. She earns a lot of income every year. How much can a house be sold for?
It's nothing more than ten or twenty thousand taels of silver, which is just drizzle to her.
"That's not okay. If I want it, if the imperial sister gives it to me, I can accept it shamelessly."
Hearing this, the eldest princess thought for a while, but after all, this was not for Lu Yaoyao's own use.
"Okay, I'll ask Nanny Li to help with it later, and I'll give you the key right now."
When her voice fell, Grandma Li stepped back and soon handed the key to Lu Yaoyao.
"Thank you, Sister Huang."
"Thank you, it's not a big deal."
"By the way, when will your cousin get married, I would also like to go over and have a wedding drink."
After hearing this, Lu Yaoyao was also very happy. This was a matter of pride to her cousin and Lu's family. She happily reported the wedding date.
The eldest princess is a reclusive person, especially after the Prince Consort Lin's family was dealt with, it seems that she has never been heard of leaving the house.
Now that he is going to attend Lu Mingxi's wedding in such a dignified manner, people outside know about it. Who can't take a high look at Lu Mingxi?
From now on, Lu Mingxi will have to move around in the circle of powerful ladies in the capital. With the face gained this time, he will be able to get along much easier in the circle in the future.
"Then I will wait for the royal sister to arrive, so I won't disturb you today."
"Well, you can go and do your work. The day will definitely pass when I get there."
Lu Yaoyao quickly left the Princess Dachang's mansion.
"Go and help with it, and have the title deed delivered directly to the Lu family later."
Grandma Li responded, and just as she was about to retreat, the eldest princess continued, "Let someone prepare a generous gift."
On the other side, Lu Yaoyao arrived at Lu's house and handed the key to Lu Xiu.
"How much?"
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao was startled, shook his head in embarrassment and said, "I forgot to ask, but someone should send me the title deed soon, so I'll ask again then."
"It really doesn't work. I'll ask again when I go to the capital another day."
Lu Xiu nodded, knowing that Lu Yaoyao had a good relationship with the eldest princess. He didn't need to take away worry about this kind of thing. Anyway, just give it as much as it cost.
Could it be that Her Royal Highness the Princess of the People's Republic of China can ask for a higher price?
"Then where is the location of this house? I'll ask your aunt to bring someone over to clean it up first."
Then, Lu Yaoyao was embarrassed again.
How does she know where to go?
Fortunately, there was Qiu Shuang nearby, so she quickly came to Lu Yaoyao's rescue.
Not long after, Zhao set off for the capital with more than ten or twenty servants.
As soon as we left here, someone came from the eldest princess’s house to deliver the land deed.
I asked about the price, it was fifteen thousand taels of silver.
Without saying a word, Lu Xiu asked someone to prepare money.
"Cousin, everything is fine. How about we go and see your new home? Let's get to know the door first."
After hearing this, Lu Mingxi thought about it, and then the two sisters took the servant out and went out.
Qiu Shuang knew the road and quickly arrived at the door. As soon as the carriage stopped, she saw a servant opening the door and walking out.
The servant was stunned for a moment when he saw them, and then hurried over to salute.
"What's wrong? Don't you have to clean up? Are you going there?"
"When I go back to the princess, my wife asked me to go back to you and ask you to come and see this house."
"Looking at the house? What's wrong?"
Lu Yaoyao was startled, but he did not think that this house was too dilapidated to be inhabited. If this was the case, the eldest princess would definitely make it clear to her, and it was absolutely impossible to give it to her without saying anything.
"I can't tell you clearly. Princess, you are here, so just go in with me and have a look."
Lu Yaoyao came in with doubts. Sure enough, she was not uninhabitable as he suspected.
On the contrary, although the house has been vacant for a long time, the eldest princess's house regularly arranges for people to come over and take care of it.
It just needs a little careful tidying up and it's ready to move in.
However, as he walked into the main room of the main courtyard, Lu Yaoyao was stunned.
My dear, isn’t the furniture in here too luxurious?
There are piles of golden nanmu and huanghuali. In addition to furniture and ornaments, they are also first-class luxuries.
There are so many porcelains, coral ornaments, and exquisite jades specially provided by the royal family.
