Chapter 279: Going to the Feast

Although Yan Xi felt that Xiao Jiu had been wronged by the original wedding, it was indeed as Xiao Jiu said, although the wedding was simple, it was also witnessed by her relatives, and it was justified. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"That's when I said it wrong. Yan Xi obediently apologized.

Xiao Jiu glanced at him and continued to look down at the ledger.

Yan Xi looked at the account book for a while, and asked aloud, "How?"

"It's not a big problem, and if there is a problem, it's a small problem that can be ignored. Xiao Jiu paused, and then said: "Yuan Hai's ability is still good, and he has enough loyalty to you, if there are no accidents in the future, the position of the housekeeper will not be changed." ”

After taking over the account book, Xiao Jiu realized how hard it was to manage a huge mansion, the account book alone was enough, if there was no housekeeper to help him, he would be exhausted to death.

"That's fine. Although Yuan Hai's health is a little bad, he has the ability, so you can use it with confidence. ”

Although Yan Xi thinks that Yuan Hai is good, after all, the position of the housekeeper is to help the housekeeper take care of the inside and outside of the mansion, if Xiao Jiu doesn't like it, it is better to change people earlier, so as not to make waves again.

"My requirements are not high, and I also understand the truth that if the water is clear, there are no fish, whether it is Yuan Hai or other people in the house, I allow them to be harmless and greedy, but I will never let them step on my bottom line and act recklessly. ”

Although Xiao Jiu has no management experience in this area, she still understands this simple truth. He Shen, the most famous corrupt official in history, didn't Emperor Qianlong know that he was a big corrupt official?

Of course I know, otherwise how could He Shen and Ji Xiaolan contain each other for a lifetime?

Xiao Jiu doesn't know what the way of being an official is the way of being a king, but after five thousand years of summarization, although she doesn't remember much, at present, she can always bluff people.

When she understands it thoroughly in the future, she will naturally be handy in charge of the mansion.

"Madame is so smart, I am really ashamed to be a husband. Yan Xi deliberately teased Xiao Jiu, and made a decent appearance on his face, which made Xiao Jiu's teeth itch and wanted to bite him twice to relieve his anger.

"That's right, Lan family...... It's my grandfather's house, we should visit the door first. Xiao Jiu has always forgotten to ask about the situation of the Lan family, and Yan Xi has never elaborated on it, but now that they have returned to the capital and recognized their biological parents, their grandfather's family naturally has to go and see it.

Yan Xi groaned: "I'm going to visit, but I have to ask my mother-in-law first, and it's not good to visit rashly." ”

"Oh, let's wait until I've asked my mother. ”

Xiao Jiu felt that there had been a lot of banquets recently, and it was estimated that she would not be able to spare time to go to the Lan Mansion to meet the elders.

"And Ah Chen, although he is taught by Brother Nanyu, it is better for children to go to school, so as not to stifle his nature. Yan Xi played with Xiao Jiu's free right hand and said lightly: "The Lan family has a family education, and the discipline of the children is also quite strict, so it is a good choice to send Ah Chen to the Lan family to study." ”

Xiao Jiu looked surprised, "Is this good? The Lan family's ethnology, it should all be the clansmen of the Lan family, and Ah Chen is too conspicuous when he goes in like this." ”

Walking through the back door, Xiao Jiu was really afraid that Xiao Chen would be excluded, or that he would not be able to make a sincere good friend in the clan school.

"Don't worry. Yan Xi heard the voice and persuaded: "It is said that it is the Lan family study, but in fact, it is just that my grandfather subsidized the students of the same clan to study, and it is very easy for the children of ordinary people to want to enter, but they hand over some firewood as a bundle on weekdays." ”

"It turns out that my grandfather is so powerful. Xiao Jiu was very surprised, but he was also more curious about the Lan family's grandfather.

Reaching is helping the world, which is sometimes just a sentence, and not everyone will put it into action. Although the grandfather of the Lan family did only a small thing, the reason for it was also because of the word "good".

"So it's very appropriate to send Ah Chen over, even if you are not the granddaughter of the Lan family, it is easy. ”

Although Yan Xi is not in the capital all the year round, Mo Wei's collection of news about the capital has never been interrupted, and the affairs of these powerful people can still be said in general.

"That's okay, let Ah Chen go to the Lan family's clan study on weekdays, and go to Brother Nanyu when he rests. ”

Although Xiao Jiu felt that at Xiao Douding's age, these courses were a bit too much, but in ancient times, children were enlightened early and adults early, so if Xiao Chen wanted to rely on his own talents to learn in the future, he would only study hard at this time.

"I'll let people go over tomorrow to talk about it, and I'll let Ah Chen go to the school the day after tomorrow. And Ah Chen's scholar, what do you think you choose?" Yan Xi asked seriously, and it was considered to remind Xiao Jiu that he had to match Xiao Chen with two younger boys.

"The scholar will forget it first, just match two teenage boys. Xiao Jiu felt that since he was taking care of people, he naturally couldn't be too young.

"Then choose two who can do kung fu, although the security in the capital is good, but you can't be careless. "Yan Xi had considered putting a Mo Wei by Xiao Chen's side before, but then he felt that it was inappropriate, and it was okay originally, if he was too cautious, it would be redundant.

"Then let Mo Yi help me choose first, and let Ah Chen choose by himself when it's over. ”

Mo Yi is thoughtful, and Xiao Jiu is more at ease when he does things.

"Good. ”

After returning to Beijing, there were many things, and Xiao Jiu had just straightened out the affairs in the house, and he arrived at the flower viewing banquet of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites.

It was only a quarter of an hour from the Eldest Princess's Mansion to the Mansion of the Ministry of Rites, and after Xiao Jiu changed his clothes, he didn't put on his makeup, so he went to the Mansion of the Ministry of Officials in a carriage with a plain face.

Because it was the first time to participate in such a banquet, Xiao Jiu went out with Mama Hu and Hibiscus.

Furong and Hibiscus were originally the big maids by Su Jiu's side, and they were loyal, Su Lan's family sent the two to the Eldest Princess's Mansion yesterday, after thinking about it again, Xiao Jiu still felt that it was better to take Hibiscus Hibiscus, after all, she was the maid of the Suguo Mansion, and she had been trained since childhood.

"Girl, Mrs. also received an invitation from the Ministry of Rites, and the sons have not yet married, so Mrs. went today to see the young daughter of the Ministry of Rites. ”

Fleur didn't expect to be able to serve her girl so soon, and she was a little irrepressible excited along the way.

Xiao Jiu sat upright, and she was not surprised to hear Furong's words, thinking that there were eight single brothers, she felt sad, not to mention Su Lan's mother?

"Today's girls are all flower-like little girls, and my mother is afraid that she is going to pick flowers. ”

That being said, Xiao Jiu felt that no matter how many girls there were, it would be very difficult to pick out eight daughters-in-law in one go, and it would be extremely difficult to barely pick one in the end.

"Madame, I'm afraid I'm going to be disappointed, although there are many unmarried women of appropriate age in the capital, but in the past two years, my eyes have fallen on the three princes......"

Furong's voice was very low, faintly disdainful, and said: "I heard that there are not a few people who occasionally have three princes......
