Chapter 275 Prodigal
On the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month, as soon as the academy had a holiday, the three brothers Yan Wenxiu came back. Because of the plague this year, they made the elders in the family worried, so they spent more time at home with their elders.
The twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month was Yan Wenkai’s fifteenth birthday. On this day, Xiao Yeyang came with Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin.
Li Xingnian also came over, firstly to celebrate his nephew's birthday, and secondly to take Li Zixuan and Li Zixin home.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so the two girls can’t live in Yan’s house all the time.
"You want to give me land again?"
In the Yan Family Garden, looking at the documents handed over by Xiao Yeyang, Daohua refused and crossed her arms: "Tell me, what's the reason for this time?"
Xiao Yeyang was speechless: "Miss Yan, can you see what it is before you speak?"
Daohua was stunned and said: "Isn't it a field deed?" As she said this, she reached out and took the document and looked at it. After reading it, she was a little confused.
What is the difference between a house deed and a land deed?
"Last time, it was reasonable for you to give me a field because of grain crops, but fine, why did you give me a house?" Still from Sanjin, still in the capital!
Xiao Yeyang was so depressed that it was his only gift to give him something like this. He took a few deep breaths and said, "Isn't your father going to Beijing to report on his work? Where does he live?"
Daohua was silent. She had never thought about this: "...the capital is so big, there is always a place to stay, an inn? If not, there is still my aunt's house."
Xiao Yeyang: "Whether you stay in an inn or at a relative's house, it is always inconvenient. It is better to stay at your own home."
Daohua shook her head: "That's what I say, but I can't take your house." As she said that, she thrust the house deed into Xiao Yeyang's hand.
Looking at the house deed back in his hands, Xiao Yeyang didn't know what to say.
At this time, Daohua clenched her chin and began to ponder: "What you said makes some sense. My eldest brother will definitely go to Beijing to take the exam in the future. It is indeed more convenient to have a house in the capital."
"In this case, I will go and talk to my mother later and let her buy a house in the capital. Isn't my father going to the capital this time? I can just take a look."
Xiao Yeyang: "...You are not familiar with the capital at all, what kind of good house can you buy? Even if you can buy it, it will probably be near the suburbs of the city. Wouldn't it be more convenient to take the house in my hand?
?"
After saying that, he stuffed the house deed back into Daohua's hand. Seeing that she still wanted to refuse, he added, "If you feel bad about it, you can count on me selling it to you, right?"
This time, Daohua was not as resistant as before. She looked at Xiao Yeyang and asked, "How much money is it?"
Xiao Yeyang was a little confused by the question. He didn't know much about this. He glanced at Defu behind him and saw that Defu was counting two. He immediately had an idea in his mind. Thinking that Daohua was a money fan, he said: "Two thousand
Two."
Hearing this, Defu almost knelt down.
He said twenty thousand taels, not two thousand taels.
Although the house given by the master is not too big, it is in a good location. If someone wants to buy such a house now, it must cost at least thirty thousand taels, and there must be connections.
He thought that the loss of ten thousand taels would be regarded as the friendship between the two families. He did not expect that the master would be so cruel and directly asked for a small change.
This is too wasteful!
"Two thousand taels is not expensive!"
Daohua didn't know much about housing prices, but she thought that more than two thousand taels of silver was enough to buy a medium-sized village. She should be able to buy a three-bedroom house.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Did you give me a discount?"
Xiao Yeyang has been hanging out with Daohua for a relatively long time. He knew what she meant by discount, so he nodded: "Can we not give you some discounts because of our relationship? Don't worry, I won't let you take advantage of it too much.
”
Upon hearing this, Defu behind him rolled his eyes and said 'haha' in his heart. He is too lazy to talk about his master now.
Daohua looked satisfied and said with a smile: "Okay, you wait here, I'll ask my mother for the money." After saying that, she happily ran towards the main courtyard with the house deed.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang breathed a sigh of relief.
I finally gave the house away!
Defu then spoke quietly: "Master, that house costs more than 30,000 taels of silver."
Xiao Yeyang casually gave Defu a slap on the head: "Keep these words in your stomach and don't let Daohua hear it."
Defu endured it, but in the end he couldn't hold it back anymore: "Is it okay for me to tell Miss Yan?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Do you think that guy Daohua will spend two to thirty thousand taels of silver to buy a house?"
I am blessed.
Given Miss Yan’s money-obsessed temperament, it seems unlikely.
Xiao Yeyang was very thoughtful: "Think about it, that house was originally going to be given to Daohua, but now she wants to give us two thousand taels of silver. It sounds like we have made the profit."
Defu was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
Did they make money?
It sounds like this, but why does it feel weird?
......
"Two thousand taels?!"
Mrs. Li was stunned when she heard that a three-bedroom house in the capital cost only two thousand taels of silver.
Daohua smiled and said: "It must be more than two thousand taels. I think it must be at least three or four thousand taels. However, this is Xiao Yeyang's wish, and we shouldn't be too indifferent to his feelings."
Is that so?
Mrs. Li still felt that something was missing, but she had never been to the capital and didn't know much about the capital. When she saw the word "suburb" on the property deed address, she thought the house was relatively remote.
"It might be cheaper in the suburbs."
Thinking of this, I waved Pingtong to get the banknote.
Soon, Daohua came to the garden pavilion again with two thousand taels of silver notes and a small embroidery bag.
"What is this?"
Xiao Yeyang asked Defu to collect the banknotes, but he stared at the embroidered bag in Daohua's hand.
Daohua glanced at the bruise on Xiao Yeyang's wrist, quickly took out a round box from the embroidery bag, opened the round box, and soon, a medicinal fragrance spread out.
"This is a blood-activating ointment. When you practice martial arts, you will inevitably bump into it. Apply this and it will heal quickly."
Xiao Yeyang picked up the medicine box and put it under his nose, smelled it, then raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Thank you."
Daohua looked at his wrist: "Hurry up and try it."
Xiao Yeyang was stunned, and following Daohua's line of sight, he realized that the bruise on his wrist was exposed. He pulled his sleeves, and was about to say that he would wipe it after going back, but then his heart moved, and he picked up the medicine box and looked at Daohua.
: "I can't wipe one of my hands. How about you help me?"
Daohua was not used to this guy who stretched out his hand and opened his mouth, so he raised his arm to demonstrate: "The injury is on your arm. It's easy to wipe it, okay?"
Xiao Yeyang's expression froze.
At this time, Defu hurriedly stepped forward to relieve his master's embarrassment: "Master, I will help you." As he said that, he slowly rolled up Xiao Yeyang's sleeves.
"Who were you beaten by?"
Seeing the bruises on Xiao Yeyang's forearm, Daohua immediately came over.
Defu was very discerning and quickly retreated, and cleverly put the medicine box in Daohua's hand, even though Daohua had no intention of helping apply the medicine.
Xiao Yeyang looked unconcerned: "You can practice martial arts without getting hurt. Hey, it's a bit cold outside. You should wipe it off for me quickly."
Daohua looked at the medicine box in her hand, helplessly sat next to Xiao Yeyang, and began to apply medicine for him.
Looking at the rice flowers so close, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but slow down his breathing. He felt the cold touch on his arms and began to feel uncomfortable again.
"Don't practice too hard."
Daohua said softly while applying the medicine.
"You are growing now, so don't ruin your body."
"Hey, it's not good if you don't have any elders around to watch, and there's no one to restrain you. If you are lucky, they don't dare to stop you too much. You have to take it easy and don't let your own temper be too much."

Xiao Yeyang listened well at first, but gradually, Daohua's elder-like tone made him a little uncomfortable.
