095 Gifts

Before the sun sets, the family has finally moved over, and now the new Zhou Mansion, the red silk hanging corridor, the red lights are in line, and the red Spring Festival couplets are beaming.

Lin Xiaojue lives in the fourth courtyard of the central axis, there is no one around her, only Lingnan and Thursday are waiting, and the three masters and servants occupy a courtyard, which is really a bit empty, but there is no way, who makes the house bigger.

The three of them packed their luggage and sat in the living room to rest.

Ling Nan sat under Lin Xiaojue's side, and while moistening her throat, she asked her own young lady: "Miss, is there going to be more people in the house? ”

Lin Xiaojue took a sip of tea and said: "Let the aunt and sister-in-law look at this." "She doesn't have high requirements for her subordinates, and she can't use both.

However, in such a large house, it is not possible to invite a few more people.

She glanced up at Lingnan and suddenly asked, "How old are you?"

Generally, when the master thinks you are old, he will send you away.

Ling Nan had a bad premonition, sipped tea, and then hurriedly wiped his mouth, and said: "The slave maid is eighteen, but the slave maid still wants to serve the young lady for a few years, and the third lady explained it when she came." ”

Lin Xiaojue smiled: "Do you think I want to find you my mother-in-law?"

Isn't it? Ling Nan blushed and glanced at Thursday beside her, where the little girl was looking at her with teasing eyes.

"I hate it, children know what to turn around. ”

Thursday grinned and didn't listen to her.

Lin Xiaojue also smiled when she saw that they were playing, and she said, "I wanted to ask you, but I wanted to take care of the family." I still want to manage my finances, or I want to learn from me, medical skills, and when the store on Donghua Street opens, I am ready to open a medical center, if you want to manage the family, you will stay in the house, and with the eldest aunt and mother, you will be in charge of the family. I want to manage my money. I went to Donghua Street, and if I wanted to study medicine, I went to the medical hall with me. ”

So many options?

Ling Nan looked at Lin Xiaojue and said, "Miss, you can arrange it, the slaves and maids will listen to you." ”

Lin Xiaojue thought for a while and said, "Study medicine." You're not hard enough. Didn't live up to my requirements. Go to the street and show up, you are used to the third aunt. I think you're still suitable for the family, just be a helper for me. ”

Lingnan knew that Miss was destined to do big things, but her vision was limited, and she didn't seem to be able to help Miss outside, but she was still good at watching a family and taking care of individuals.

Especially the young lady also said that she was not hard enough.

Ling Nan nodded with a red face and said, "Just listen to Miss, the slave stays at home." ”

Lin Xiaojue nodded: "In this case, first manage our hospital, and then slowly, and then manage the accounts and personnel in the house." ”

Ling Nan also nodded.

Thursday's eyes looked at the two of them, and suddenly raised his little hand: "Miss, can I study medicine with you?"

She's twelve, but her voice is still crunchy, child.

Lin Xiaojue smiled and said: "Of course you can, then when you arrive, you will go with me, the medical hall, but it will be very hard." ”

Thursday finally said what she wanted, and the young lady agreed very well, showing a small tooth, happy and a little shy, she was not afraid of hard work.

The three of them said a few more words, Ling Nan looked out the window, and then looked back at Lin Xiaojue: "It's almost dark, it's time to eat in a while, the slave maid goes to see how the other yards are cleaned up, ......is the meal ready?"

This meal is the last meal of the old year, and it is very hearty to be made, and then it is the midnight meal, eating dumplings, alternating between the old and the new.

There was originally only one cook in the Zhou Mansion, but for this meal, Lin Xiaojue invited two more in advance, and now he is in the mansion.

Lin Xiaojue waved his hand: "Go ahead, I'll go sleep for a while, I'm tired." ”

When their young lady is not idle day by day, can she not be tired?

Lingnan felt sorry for her own lady and asked them to go out together last Thursday.

Lin Xiaojue was lying on the bed and sleeping in a daze, and she felt that someone was calling her.

She opened her eyes: "Miss, guess who's coming?"

Ling Nam and Thursday squatted side by side at the head of her bed.

Who would dare to delay her sleep? Lin Xiaojue turned over and ignored the two.

The two girls muttered and laughed: "Let's clean the air, the meteor is coming." ”

Meteor is Lan Junyuan's henchman, Lin Xiaojue turned over and opened his eyes to look at the two.

Thursday covered his mouth and secretly laughed, Ling Nan's eyes went up, and he looked cold, as if to say Aren't you sleeping? Don't listen, sleep.

Lin Xiaojue's eyes moved, he sat up from the bed, straightened his hair, and said, "Eighteen, it's really not small, if you don't find someone to marry, you will smash your hands, no, mine will tell my aunt to go." ”

Who are these eighteen? Of course, it's Lingnan.

Ling Nan lowered his head and stomped his feet: "Miss, you don't bring such a scoundrel." ”

Lin Xiaojue looked at her with the corners of her mouth raised: "I'm a young lady, and I dare to sell it to me, if you don't say it, I won't listen." ”

Ling Nan hurriedly said: "Meteor has just sent a lot of things, including porcelain for the eldest master, calligraphy and paintings for the second master, chess pieces for the eldest young master, sword for the second young master, a set of books for the young master, a pair of wild cranes for the little young master, cloth for the eldest lady and the second lady, palace flowers for the eldest grandmother, and a string of pearl chains for the old lady, one hundred and twenty-eight, all of which are pink and as big as hail. She gestured with her large fingernails.

Hail is the size of a finger knuckle, the size of an egg, what kind of adjective is this, Lin Xiaojue was a little dumbfounded by Lan Junyuan's behavior.

Ling Nan continued: "Originally, the second lady was still angry with the young lady, and she complained on the old lady's side, but halfway through the conversation, a gift came to the door, and the second lady was afraid that the eldest lady would pick it up if she had a good joke, so she didn't sue it, and went directly to see the gifts, there were more than a dozen picks, what I knew was that our family moved for the New Year, and Mr. Lan congratulated him on the housewarming, and those who didn't know thought that the Lan family was going to marry our family." ”

Lin Xiaojue knew that Lan Junyuan was rich, but he didn't expect him to get it on the surface, their Lan family has few children, and it is already withered, won't such a big deal make people question the origin of his money?

Or he's not going to hide it.

Lin Xiaojue looked at the two maids puzzled, licked his lips and said, "What is he doing here?" It's also weird.

Ling Nan pouted and looked at the sky, she was not optimistic about Lan Dagongzi, and said: "Then who knows, it is estimated that she wants to please the future lady's family." ”

Thursday covered his mouth again.

Lin Xiaojue thought for a while and asked, "Then uncle, did you accept it?" Zhou Guangzu didn't like Lan Junyuan because of Fang Jinglong's relationship.

Ling Nan still pouted: "With such a small favor, how can the eldest master of our family be bought? Although it is a bucket color from the official kiln, although there are eighteen pieces of dishes in a set, plus two lotus-patterned goblets, although I heard that any rich man did not buy it at a price of three thousand taels. But the eldest lord still showed a lack of interest. ”

Lin Xiaojue said: "You said it. It's so lively, and finally uncle, confiscate?"

"Accepted. ”

At this time, Ling Nan lowered his head, a little reluctant.

Lin Xiaojue: "......" this Lan Junyuan. Enlightenment. She thought it would be a goodbye day. And he went home to remember his dead wife.

Lin Xiaojue stretched out his hand with a smile: "What about mine?" gave things to the family, and they were all worth a lot of money, there was always hers, right?

Ling Nan spread out his empty hands. Thursday also opened his little hand, and the two said in unison: "No." ”

"The whole family sent it, without mine?" Lin Xiaojue was surprised: "You two, are you playing with me?"

The two maids laughed even more presumptuously, and Ling Nan said: "It's because there is no young lady that we came back to tell you that Lan Gongzi's family has sent it, but it hasn't been given to you." ”

Lin Xiaojue: "......"

She thought for a while: "Listen to what you mean, my sisters and sisters didn't send it." "As long as she doesn't give things to other girls of the same age, she doesn't get angry.

Ling Nan and Thursday thought about it, this Lan Gongzi did a good job, at least he didn't give Zhou Qingliang and them a gift, otherwise he would be angry.

Ling Nan curled the corners of his mouth proudly: "But you are different from them." ”

Yes, in Lan Junyuan's heart, she should be different from others, but why didn't she give her a gift?

Thinking about his character, this person is really elusive.

In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu. Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one.

The evening is Chinese New Year's Eve, and on this night the people of the whole city are celebrating the New Year, setting off firecrackers, worshipping ancestors, eating dumplings and keeping the New Year.

The Zhou family here has been for more than ten years, and finally has a happy and prosperous year, and because they have just moved to a new house, plus there are many Lin Xiaojue's people in the outer courtyard, these people are not ordinary people at first glance, Zhou Guangzu took the men in the family to drink with these people, and he also knew the origin of these people.

Five soldiers, a steward of the Lin Mansion who is very loyal to Lin Xiaojue, and a big shopkeeper surnamed Zhou, who go south and north, should not be people who succumb to a girl, but they all obey her.

Zhou Guangzu didn't ask much about this kind of strange thing on the table, so he will mention it here.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, as soon as the sky was bright, Lan Junyuan came out of Yongding Gate for a change of shift, and the meteor was waiting for him at the door.

As soon as he saw him, Meteor walked over with a smile and arched his hand: "Master, Happy New Year, the little one is here to greet you." ”

With a sweet mouth, Lan Junyuan took out ten taels of silver from his arms and threw it to him: "Say, how are things going?" Is Lord Zhou happy to see the gift? ”

As he spoke, he walked forward, and Little Meteor took the money and hurried to follow.

"Naturally, I am happy, but the small ones are the porcelain and calligraphy and paintings that have been brought from Mr. Fu, even if Lord Zhou is resistant, he can't stand the exquisite and attractive porcelain. ”

Fu Lao is a master of calligraphy, and the level of appreciation of artworks is naturally not a problem.

Lan Junyuan glanced back at the meteor: "Count you kid Spirit, what about Miss? What did Miss say, did you bring me anything?" ”

He wasted so much effort to please Zhou Guangzu, Lin Xiaojue should be very happy when he knew it, at least he would say thank you.

Meteor grinned and said, "I didn't see Miss." ”

I didn't see it, is Lin Xiaojue missing?

Lan Junyuan stopped and looked at the meteor: "Miss doesn't see you?" That is, he is still angry with him, so it will be difficult.

"Master, why are you so heavy?" Meteor smiled: "It's not that Miss didn't see me, I didn't see Miss." ”

How to give gifts if you don't see it? Lan Junyuan's eyes slanted: "Tell me in detail, how did you get to the Zhou family." ”

Meteor told him what he had been going to, and saw that the more the master listened, the darker his face became, and Meteor became nervous: "Did the little one do something wrong? ”

Yes, the Zhou family is happy, what about his daughter-in-law? sent a big circle, but Lin Xiaojue didn't send anything, you must know that although the opinions of the Zhou family's elders are very important, who to marry this marriage, whether to get married, Lin Xiaojue has to make his own decisions.

He still knows her character very well.

Lan Junyuan pointed at the meteor's head: "Stupid, stupid, you forgot my daughter-in-law." "It's better for himself, the first time he gave her a hairpin, he didn't dare to give it to her personally, so he put it on the windowsill, but he also gave it.

Meteor: "......" are blatantly screaming.

Lan Junyuan scolded the meteor, the sky was getting brighter, he trotted into the carriage with the meteor, and immediately the meteor had already prepared a change of clothes for him, and today the Zhou family moved to a banquet for guests and friends, hoping that he would go over to apologize now, and it would be too late. (To be continued.) )

PS: Thank you for your blessings yesterday, and congratulations to Xiaojue on the birth of the hall master (although it is a group of relatives and friends), but, it still won't add more ground (don't accept me!). But this chapter has more than 3400 words, and everyone knows that 500 words will be charged, so the author is still quite good, right?
