Chapter 314
Old Madam Yan didn't want to see Yan Hanyu, how sad she was in her heart, how much she didn't want to see this eldest granddaughter. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Not only because of the appearance similar to the eldest son, she will feel pain in her heart once she sees it, but also because before the birth of this eldest granddaughter, she went to the respected master of Xinkong, and calculated the life of the fetus in Lin Suxin's womb, and the words said, "Men's lives are unparalleled, and women's lives are easy to die early!"
Mrs. Yan looked forward to the eldest grandson day and night, but she was born as a granddaughter, and then the eldest son was martyred, and the approval of the master of Xinkong became a thorn in her heart, and she thought that it was the eldest daughter's life that caused the death of the eldest son.
More than ten years have passed, and Mrs. Yan can't remember everything back then, but she remembers those ten words clearly, and she only thinks that it is her granddaughter Ke's eldest son, and she can't forget it year after year!
Mrs. Yan has been fasting and reciting Buddha for many years, but it doesn't mean that all the things in the inner house are no longer asked. The Lu family is in charge of the inner house, and no matter how much it is, he has to respect his mother-in-law, and he has to talk back and forth once a month.
It was the Lu family who made a mistake in his mother's house and was punished to go to Niwang Temple to fast, which was also punished by Mrs. Yan herself.
Mrs. Lu's words are right, the Lu family is already a member of the Yan family when she marries, and it is naturally her in-law's family who wants to control her. Lu's quarrel with the elders is unfilial piety, and it must be punished, and it cannot be avoided.
Let Yan Hanyu take charge of the inner house, but Master Yan mentioned it, Mrs. Yan didn't say anything, and when she heard him say that Yan Hanyu was in charge of the house, she went back to Shou'an Hall.
Yan Hanyu doesn't like the master, but because there are too many trivial things in the family, and he can't be said to be busy, but he can't be quiet.
She used to live in a small courtyard, she was used to being quiet, she was used to being comfortable, she could read books if she wanted to, she could learn words if she wanted to, and no one would restrain her if she wanted to practice.
The beginning of the year is a lot of tedious things, and the end of the year is generally busy, nothing more than a few visitors, greeting the New Year. This year, because of the death of Concubine Hua, it was a lot more deserted, and there were not many people who visited, but they received a lot of New Year's posts, and most of the people who had New Year's greetings wanted to reply to a post.
For a while, a housekeeper from a farm on the outskirts of the city will give some New Year's gifts, and a guest post will come for a while, and dividends will be paid to the housekeepers of each shop, one thing after another, in short, she must not be at peace.
The second uncle and aunt prepared the same New Year's gifts before leaving, and she added the less New Year's gifts according to the gifts prepared by the second uncle.
When the second uncle and mother were in charge of the house before, Yan Hanyu and Shizuka had followed the second uncle and mother for a few days, and now they have followed their grandmother for two days, and Yan Hanyu basically understood the process of taking charge of the house. She has always had a plan for doing things, and she has her own ideas, and she will do what she does, and she won't feel flustered when she really gets started.
Because she was in charge of the house, she had to change her residence and move to her mother's main courtyard.
Mingruo Courtyard is a long courtyard, not much worse than the main courtyard, and it is more convenient for the housekeeper to run here than to run to her boudoir.
She thought it would be okay to be like this, at least close to her mother.
After sitting down and reading a few account books, Yan Hanyu realized that the Yan family had more farm shops than she imagined, in addition to the farms and fields on the outskirts of the city, there was also a large area of forests and fields in Shandong, and there were a lot of them in the accounts every year.
The head of the house has an advantage, that is, the big and small things in the house can't escape her eyes.
The second uncle went out with a New Year's gift, saying that he would visit a friend in Yingtianfu and would come back in two or three days. Aunt Naqiu later followed out and said that she would go to the temple to make incense.
I heard that the third uncle was infected with the wind and cold, ate the decoction, and stayed in the courtyard to recuperate.
After two days of being busy with such trivial matters, Shizuka returned home from the Lu family, and Rong Xuan had already returned a day earlier.
Rong Xuan is waiting for Shizuka to come back, and plans to go to the outskirts of the city to pick up his mother together.
Renwang Temple is on the outskirts of the city, the temple is bitter, eating fasting and reciting Buddha, praying to God, and there is nothing else, not to mention that it is the New Year's Festival, Rong Xuan came back from the Lu family and pleaded with the old lady, asking to take his mother back to the house.
Rong Xuan is the eldest grandson, and he is still quite important in Mrs. Yan's heart, so she remembers his filial piety and agrees that he will pick people up the next day.
Shizuka was a little resistant in her heart, but thinking of what her grandmother told her, there was no overnight feud between mother and daughter!
Every time she quarreled with her mother, Yan Jingxiang hated her mother in her heart, but afterwards she would forget the cause of the quarrel, her grandmother had already told a lot of reasons, and she accepted it.
But in the end, Shizuka, who has quarreled a lot, still has a gap in her mother's heart, and she forgets the cause of the quarrel, but what she hasn't forgotten is the impression of her mother in her heart, and she always looks down on her as a daughter.
I didn't want to, but I went.
After the New Year's Festival, it is also the season of spring, and I have to start preparing for spring clothes, but Yan Hanyu is not in a hurry to do this, and it is not too late to prepare when the second uncle and aunt come back.
The second room takes a lot of money from the public, and Yan Hanyu doesn't care about it, after all, the population of the second room is here. With her in charge of the house these days, she has also read a lot of detailed accounts, and it can be seen that the second uncle has at least not missing a penny from her mother. As long as the second uncle and aunt are not excessive, she will not care about these.
Yan Hanyu has been busy with things in the past two days, and she often feels empty in her heart, but because there are too many trivial things, she has no time to think about it.
Thinking that the second uncle also sent a letter today and would come back at noon, Yan Hanyu ordered the housekeeper to send a few people to pick it up outside the city.
The weather was gloomy and gloomy, there was not a trace of snow to be seen, only the cold wind blew the flags on the city walls, and the soldiers guarding the gate had to stand straight at the gate with their cheeks purple from the cold.
The scenery on the outskirts of the city is sluggish, the dead trees are sparse, the wild grass is flying, the roads are quiet and sparsely populated, the land is vast, and even the Nanxun Gate is quiet. One or two vendors huddled in the corner, standing in place rubbing their hands and stomping their feet, and without shouting, two or three people came in and out of the restaurant and teahouse, and occasionally entered a carriage from the city gate.
Four men dressed in the same attire stood in a group at the city gate, their chests crossed, rubbing their hands together, their eyes pointing in one direction.
"Why hasn't the second master arrived yet?" one of them began.
The other also said, "The second master is back to the house, let's greet us at the gate of the house, isn't it okay? Why did the eldest lady let us pick us up outside the city? When the lady was in charge of the house, the second master didn't listen to the lady arrange for us to go so far to pick us up?"
"The eldest lady is young, she has nothing to do, how can she compare with Mrs.
"That's not right, our eldest lady is smart, the old lady took the eldest lady for two days, and the rest of the eldest lady came by herself, which young lady in the city can compare with our eldest lady's appearance and talent? Don't look at our eldest lady's usual soft talk, if you really want to stand in front of the eldest lady to speak, you don't dare to look, your legs will be soft, our eldest lady's aura is bigger than that of the lady, when the eldest lady was young, she dealt with the dog-eyed Wang San, and even the housekeeper didn't dare to make a second in front of the eldest lady...... Then the eldest lady can enter the master's study at any time, and the lord's favorite is still the eldest lady...... Let's take the red envelopes sent to us this year, everyone has more than in previous years, and I heard that the extra money was privately issued by the eldest lady, and it is not a public account......"
The gushing praise is definitely Yan Hanyu's loyal servant. (To be continued.) )
