Sangge, urging him to stay for lunch, and the two continued their conversation afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Qiao Xuan’s astonishment, they successfully acquired 1,000 mu of land in the southern suburbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A middle-class affluent family was planning to relocate, selling off all their properties and fields except the ancestral home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the nominal 1,000 mu, the actual area exceeded 1,200 mu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Sangge managed to secure the land at a remarkably low price, as those interested in purchasing such vast expanses couldn’t afford them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intrigued by the development, Qiao Xuan expressed keen interest in visiting them in a couple of days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, it was the right time of the year to commence planting on the newly acquired land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, Zheng Sangge had purchased a sizable house in compliance with Qiao Xuan’s specifications — it needed to be large and well-located.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chosen residence was a spacious one on Huai’an Alley, the third street in the eastern part of the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The courtyard, spanning over 12 mu, boasted three entrances and a garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new residence was conveniently located, allowing a carriage ride of just over a quarter of an hour to reach the state office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Sangge informed Qiao Xuan that Anze Prefecture City was expansive but sparsely populated, with many vacant houses available for sale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having already arranged for the house to be cleaned, Qiao Xuan informed Zheng Sangge of her plan to visit them the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She noticed that Zheng Sangge and the others were still staying at the inn, prompting her to suggest, “You can move into the house now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take Liu Fu, Aunt Song, and the others with you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can stay there as well.” “Take some time to inspect the garden and consider where to establish a martial arts training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It will serve as a training facility in the future!” “We have Sun Bai, Sun Qian, Ah-Ye, and others here now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t need to worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When we require your assistance, Lord will seek it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In case the government office is recruiting, would you mind holding a nominal position?” With an official title, they could openly accompany Shao Yunduan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan couldn’t treat them as mere servants, so an alternative justification was necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Sangge agreed without hesitation, adding with a smile, “We’ll discuss it with Lord and Madam later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll serve as bailiffs!” Despite their rough demeanor, being bailiffs seemed fitting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan had been concerned that Zheng Sangge might be displeased, considering his past as a general.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he suggested it himself, much to Qiao Xuan’s amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you’re comfortable with that, it’s perfect!” Zheng Sangge remained calm, saying, “Madam, you’re overthinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s nothing to worry about.” With that settled, Liu Fu, Ms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song, and Ms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miao began to make the move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Sanzhao and his family joined them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiaoqiao and Qing Lian, not wanting to part, eagerly inquired if they could visit and play with Madam, Lixia, and Liqiu more often in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan happily agreed, allowing them to stay for a few days before making the move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excited, the two girls cheered, prompting Liu Fu, Xiao Er, and others to also express their eagerness to stay and play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan responded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the group departed, the east courtyard became noticeably emptier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, they gained some companions along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the journey, everyone became familiar with each other, providing ample opportunities to observe their behavior and temperament in various situations.\u003C\u002Fp>",603,"2026-06-03T12:01:10.139Z","2026-06-03T12:01:10.533Z",1,"novelbin.me","7aa8605e65a7c1563fa1cd046b283444f8e679865f637b865fcf420fe4f2229e","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1654","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1652",2438,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fspringtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-cover.jpg"]
