Quick mission: We don't make trouble

Chapter 264: Finding a Shop (1)

The third courtyard houses the residence, offering a more private atmosphere. The main room is majestic and imposing, its interiors lavish yet dignified. The bed and wardrobe are crafted from the finest wood, their exquisite carvings awe-inspiring. The courtyard is filled with a variety of flowers, offering a unique landscape in each season. In the corners of the house, a tranquil corridor winds its way through the various corners. Strolling through it, one hears echoes of history and senses the lingering charm of time.

Zhu Yingying looked at the house in front of her and said, "Compared to the old Yang family house in South City, this place is indeed much smaller. If the entire Yang family moved here, I'm afraid there wouldn't be enough space. However, if it were used to open a hot pot restaurant, it would be more than enough!"

Mother Zhu frowned and said hesitantly, "Such a fine house, a gift from the emperor himself, is a bit of a waste to just use it to open a shop and do business?!"

At this time, Zhu Qingqing came over and interrupted: "Oh, Mom, if our family moved in, would you still think so?"

Mother Zhu's eyes widened, and she said in a scolding tone, "You are such a daredevil! It's not that easy to live in a house bestowed by the emperor."

Zhu Yingying disagreed and retorted with her hands on her hips: Why not? It's spacious enough here. The two front entrances can be used to open a shop for business, and the back entrance is enough for our family to live in.

Besides, what are you afraid of? Since this house has been given to the Yang family, it is now their property. They can do whatever they want with it, and even His Majesty the Emperor probably won't interfere.

After hearing her daughter's words, Mother Zhu was stunned at first, then nodded thoughtfully and said with a smile, "Hmm...it seems to be true. Hey, Old Zhu, I never thought that I would have the chance to live in a house awarded by the emperor in this lifetime!"

Father Zhu, who had been silent the whole time, spoke calmly. "Humph, what's so surprising about it? It's just a house. Who knows how many families have lived here before us? There will definitely be new owners moving in in the future. What does that poem say..."

Yu Bo: "The wild grass and flowers beside Zhuque Bridge,

The setting sun is slanting at the entrance of Wuyi Alley.

In the old days, Wang Xietang Qianyan,

Fly into the homes of ordinary people."

Father Zhu shook his head and said, "Yes, yes, life is full of ups and downs. Wealth and glory are like passing clouds."

Mother Zhu: "As a herbalist, you shouldn't imitate others and show off your knowledge."

Father Zhu: "I won't talk to you anymore, Qingqing, I think this place is nice, we can settle down here, then we don't have to find another place to live."

Zhu Qingqing: "Well, I'll discuss this with Team Leader Yang when I get back."

In addition to the three main courtyards, this house also has a side courtyard.

Every time you enter the courtyard, there is a moon gate connecting to the side courtyard.

The side courtyard is where the kitchen and servants live.

Now only the gardener and his wife live here.

Mr. and Mrs. Li lived in the front porch, which was convenient for opening the door.

The gardener built a small greenhouse in the side yard, where orchids and daffodils were grown. The couple were busy in the greenhouse and did not stand up to greet them when they saw them.

The orchids and daffodils have already formed buds and will probably be in full bloom during the Chinese New Year.

As I walked along, I found that the yard was clean and the flowers, plants and trees were all well-maintained.

The Zhu family was very satisfied with this.

Zhu Qingqing has already planned in her mind where to put the dining table. What else needs to be added to the kitchen?

After they finished touring the house, Yang Jiu also came over.

Yang Jiu: "Don't worry, Master Zhu, I've already paid the deposit. I just have to wait a few days to sign the paperwork. I've already informed the Second Master, and he said he'll do whatever you say."

Zhu Qingqing and Zhu Yingying were both very satisfied with this.

I didn't expect that I could find all the shops I needed in just one trip.

Zhu Qingqing said happily, "Let's go back and make something delicious tonight."

"Oh, great."

Yang Wu reminded him, "Don't forget Second Master. He didn't get to eat hot pot last night and he complained to me a lot."

Zhu Qingqing: "Don't worry. I won't miss him. We have plenty of time today, so we can prepare well."
