The Eldest Sister Has Space
The Eldest Sister Has Space Chapter 25: Three Taels a Month

Gu Yundong’s eyes lit up. This seemed perfect, didn’t it?

Moreover, given their small size and vulnerability, it was difficult for them to choose a place to stay. A place with too many complicated people wouldn’t be safe, especially if the landlord had adult men in the household. She would worry about Yang Shi being bullied.

“How much is the rent?”

“Three taels a month.”

“Wow…” Gu Yundong sucked in a breath. One room!! Three taels a month??

Were the people in this city all robbers?

Nie Cheng also knew that the rent was a bit high. Normally, it would only be around one tael, but this wasn’t a normal time, was it?

“It can’t be helped. If it weren’t for the fact that you don’t have any adult men with you, I wouldn’t have suggested this. I also have to think about my aunt’s safety. The rent is a bit expensive, but the location is good, close to my house, and convenient to go out.” Nie Cheng said, “And you can rest assured, if you agree, I can take you to the yamen to sign the lease directly. I won’t cheat you.”

Gu Yundong didn’t doubt that he would cheat her. Character could be seen from the details. Nie Cheng seemed young but very well-mannered, indicating that he had been taught manners since childhood.

Moreover, he was wearing the uniform of a soldier on the outside, but his shoes were different from those of ordinary soldiers. His family must be well-off.

Especially when she had just heard the registration document calling him “Young Master Nie” while registering, she felt more assured.

“Let’s go to the yamen to sign the lease.” Usually, there was no need to go to the yamen for a lease, it wasn’t a transfer.

This was obviously Nie Cheng’s suggestion to make her feel at ease.

“Okay, wait here for a moment. I’ll be right back after I instruct them.”

After Nie Cheng changed shifts with someone, he led Gu Yundong’s family of four towards the direction of the yamen.

Along the way, he also learned about Gu Yundong’s background, knowing that her father had disappeared, and she had been kicked out by her grandparents and uncles and aunts. He also knew that she only had a little money on her, which had been given by a kind person during the journey. For a moment, he felt sympathetic towards her.

Gu Yundong also subtly probed Nie Cheng’s background and felt more at ease.

She felt that it was necessary to befriend such a person. There would definitely be occasions to make use of him in the future.

Three taels of silver, it couldn’t be spent in vain.

When they arrived at the entrance of the yamen, Nie Cheng asked Gu Yundong to leave the cart outside.

Yes, Gu Yundong had dragged the cart all the way here. The cart wasn’t cheap here.

Fortunately, there was a special parking area outside the yamen, and no one dared to steal it.

Gu Yundong then carried Gu Yunko, while Yang Shi carried Gu Yunshu, following Nie Cheng into the yamen.

The lease was quickly written up, with stamps on it. Nie Cheng then led her out again to take her to his aunt’s house.

Everything along the way was handled smoothly, but even if his manners were impeccable, Gu Yundong knew that Nie Cheng must have other motives.

She was straightforward and directly asked when they were standing at the entrance of the yamen, “Young Master Nie, do you need my help with something?”

Nie Cheng was taken aback and felt a bit embarrassed. “Did you figure it out?”

“If Young Master Nie waited until everything was settled before mentioning it, wouldn’t you be afraid that I wouldn’t agree?”

“Haha, it’s not really a big deal.”

“Oh?”

“It’s just…”

Before he could finish his sentence, a noisy commotion suddenly came from nearby.

Gu Yundong and the others subconsciously looked up and saw two constables dragging someone over. The person was bold enough to kick one of them.

Gu Yundong looked at him in surprise, and the man also looked over. Their eyes met, and Gu Yundong narrowed her eyes.
