He still has so silver left, and by pawning Nangong Liuli’s hair accessories, hairpins, and fine anchors for money, it’s enough to buy a ho. He couldn’t help but feel secretly excited: "In all my life, I have never truly bought a house, a place solely my own. Plant flowers and grass in the courtyard, practice martial arts in seclusion..."
Resolutely decided to buy the house.
The clerk said, "Hero... do you really want to purchase this house?"
Li Xian said, "What is it?" The clerk said, "I need to clarify with you first, lest you co looking for trouble later. That house... occupies a large area, neither remote nor bustling. It’s indeed a good place for quiet living."
"In the past, several heroes wanted to buy this house. But... that house is chilly and eerie, as if it’s haunted... haunted! Do you still want it?"
Li Xian furrowed his brows and said, "Then please show the other vacant houses one by one. I’ll make my decision then."
The clerk listed and displayed the deeds from the town one by one. Li Xian already strolled around Taohua Town, seeing the deed’s text, knew it was that house. He felt disheartened, even though Taohua Town’s land is cheap, a decent house occupying several acres requires hundreds of taels.
Originally...
That house has been abandoned for a long ti, the price dropping repeatedly. That’s why it is extrely cheap now. Li Xian pondered: "With my bit of silver... for a regular house, not only is it hard to buy, but renting wouldn’t last long either. Although the deserted house is haunted, a poor ghost is still a ghost. If I really encounter spirits, I’ll invite them for tea and chat."
Li Xian said, "I’ll still buy that house." The clerk didn’t try to dissuade further. Li Xian gathered enough silver, bought the deed, returned to the inn satisfied, humming a little tune.
Nangong Liuli heard about today’s "settling in the house", inexplicably feeling slightly relieved, and said, "We can manage it well together and have a good life." To her surprise, this sounded like the words of a poor couple.
Li Xian said, "Thinking I, Flower without Mistakes... ended up settling here. Let’s stay another day in the inn. Tomorrow we’ll go tidy up the house."
Nangong Liuli said, "Great... it’s a pity I can’t help you." Li Xian said, "In two days, it’s Elder Liu Yu’s banquet. He invited to go; I’ll ask on your behalf how to remove the Neishang Flowing Gaze garnt."
Nangong Liuli said joyfully, "Thank you very much then."
Li Xian suddenly laughed and said, "How do you wish to repay ?" Nangong Liuli blushed, saying, "You... how do you want repaynt?"
Li Xian saw Nangong Liuli, although enduring many embarrassing incidents, as a daughter of an aristocratic family, her appearance was as graceful as the moon. He didn’t think too much, naturally laughed and said, "You’re so beautiful."
Nangong Liuli felt at a loss, not knowing what Li Xian was up to. Li Xian joked, "How about I hug you to sleep?"
Nangong Liuli’s heart raced wildly, never having heard such blunt words, said, "Even if I don’t feel like it, it wouldn’t be possible." Li Xian said, "It’s a sha I’m not a flower thief, who freely picks flowers. You should sleep on the floor."
Nangong Liuli felt slightly disappointed, a vague sense of frustration, secretly thought, "This little flower thief has no such intention but speaks such botherso words."
Li Xian said no more, closed his eyes, and began moving the impurities. Nangong Liuli found it difficult to sleep, her thoughts wandering. She knew once entrapped in a den of thieves, it would be hard to escape this ordeal.
If it really ca to this, her first experience would be quite chaotic indeed.
