Chapter 270: Discussion
After the plan of the mansion is out, you only need to ask someone to repair it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But in addition to this, they have another important thing, which is to add people to the house.
If it were to be picked by them one by one, it would be extremely annoying. After discussing with Su Miao, Song Chen decided to determine the candidate for the housekeeper first.
After choosing the housekeeper, all other things will be handed over to the housekeeper, including selecting the next person and the like, and then Song Chen and Su Miao only need to look at it at the end.
Su Miao's first thought was Liufu, but they had already talked to the latter when they left Baiyun Villa, because his Yue family was used to life in Lily of the Valley City, and I was afraid that in a short period of time, he would not be willing to move north. In this way, they have to choose another one.
Who should you choose?
"Why don't you ask your father, how did he choose his butler at that time?" When she walked back, Su Miao discussed with Song Chen.
Song Chen turned his head and looked at her fixedly, and didn't say anything for a long time.
"Well, our father!" Su Miao's reaction was quick.
"It's okay......" Song Chen was satisfied.
"Ahh ”
"What?" Song Chen looked ahead, Hengqing Hall was right in front, could it be that Miaomiao still wanted Lin Yi to be the big housekeeper in their house?
"Ah Chen, what do you think of Brother Lin?" Su Miao was actually referring to the Miaoshou Rouge Pavilion next to Hengqing Hall, and Lin Yi's eldest son, Lin Yuncong, was the shopkeeper inside. Two years ago, when the Rouge Pavilion opened, Lin Yi transferred him over, and only then did he enter Su Miao's sight, although she didn't have much contact with him, but in the only contact, she felt that he was a calm and calm person. If she wanted to choose a big butler who could rule the whole house, she felt that he could do it.
"Lin Yuncong?" Song Chen naturally has an impression of him, of course he has no opinion on the person Miao Miaoxuan, "I don't think there's a problem, let's go to him?" If he agrees to it, then it's settled, and he can start the matter right away! ”
Song Chen is a thoughtful person, before going to Lin Yuncong, he and Su Miao went to Hengqing Hall first, and asked Lin Yi's opinion on the matter that they wanted to find Lin Yuncong to be the chief butler of the Chen Palace.
Lin Yi naturally has no opinion. According to his previous assumption, Lin Yuncong was in charge of the Miaoshou Rouge Pavilion in order to accumulate experience for him, but at present, Hengqing Hall has three industries in Selangor City, one is the Hengqing Hall in charge of him, the second is the Miaoshou Rouge Pavilion, and the third is the Lin Ji Teahouse in charge of Lin Er. Lin Er and he were by Lin Jin's side at the same time, the two of them were the same age, since they entered the age of forty-five, they had taken the health pill given to them by Lin Jin every year, according to the current situation, if the two of them didn't want to go home and stay, there should be no problem to continue to work for another twenty or thirty years. In this case, even if he wanted to train Lin Yuncong to be his successor, then the latter would need to wait for another twenty or thirty years.
In other words, even if he wanted to retire early, it wouldn't be within the last five years, and in that case, Lin Yuncong would still need to stay in the Miaoshou Rouge Pavilion for another five years. But now there is a new opportunity, the head of the Chenwang Mansion, compared to the shopkeeper of a mere rouge hall, it is a lot of promotion. Moreover, since Song Chen and Su Miao can take a fancy to Lin Yuncong, it means that the former's trust in them has reached a new height.
On the other hand, as he grew older, the desire to reunite with his family grew. In addition to Lin Yuncong's eldest son, he also has a second son Lin Yunming, over the years he and Lin Yuncong have been in Selangor City, Lin Yunming has done some small business at home and served his mother, the eldest daughter-in-law Min and his old wife Di have come to help the Miaoshou Rouge Pavilion to do things, and Lin Yunming and the second daughter-in-law Chen are left in the hometown. In the past two years, he has been thinking about whether to mention it to Lin Jin and move Lin Yunming and them to Shenlan City, because the Min family added a big fat grandson to the Lin family last year, and the number of people who do rouge is suddenly reduced, and the business of the rouge restaurant is almost affected. Now this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law must assign people to take care of their grandson, so basically the Min family is doing it alone, and sometimes it is inevitable that they will be a little overwhelmed. In the past two years, Lin Jin and Su Miao had something to do in the south, and he was not easy to propose, but now if Yun Cong went to King Chen's Mansion, the position of the shopkeeper of the Rouge Pavilion would be vacant, in this case, then he could logically propose to Su Miao to let Lin Yunming and them in the countryside help.
Lin Yi told Su Miao about the situation of the Rouge Pavilion, and sure enough, the latter asked him to move his family over so that the family could be reunited. Su Miao also advised: "If the yard of the house here is not enough to live in, then buy another house." ”
"Enough. That's enough. Lin Yimei smiled openly.
At this time, Lin Yi asked people to go next door after hearing about Su Miao's plan, and Lin Yuncong, who was called, also happened to arrive. After he came in, Lin Yi told him Song Chen and Su Miao's thoughts, and Lin Yuncong naturally agreed.
"Then this matter is settled!"
Song Chen immediately took Lin Yuncong to the Chenwang Mansion resolutely, and asked the porter to gather all the people who were currently working in the mansion, and announced that Lin Yuncong would be the chief housekeeper in the palace in the future, and after letting Lin Yuncong recognize people, he would hand over all the future affairs to him.
The next day, Song Chen handed over the drawings drawn based on the results of his discussion with Su Miao the day before to Lin Yuncong, who officially took office, and really handed over everything to him.
The matter of King Chen's Mansion is over, and after Lin Yuncong made specific arrangements, he also replied to them that it would definitely be done before the end of the year, which made Song Chen and Su Miao feel even more comfortable. They felt relaxed and almost remembered the Jing Sijiao incident that they had almost forgotten about in Huolan City, but that day, as soon as Song Chen returned to the Huanwang Mansion from the Lin Mansion, Tang Yun asked people to find Song Chen, and told him that Song Henghuan had received the flying pigeon from Tairu Villa, it seemed that his master and grandfather had already selected a few days, and Song Henghuan had already gone to King Jing's Mansion to discuss with Lao Jingwang after the letter, and asked Song Chen to go over there if he came back.
Song Chen's heart jumped when he heard this, although this scene was what he had been looking forward to for a long time, but at this time, he would inevitably have some throbbing, and he took a step closer to his goal!
But in front of Tang Yun, Song Chen would not show this emotion. He just calmly floated a smile, and after calmly saying goodbye to Tang Yun, he went out steadily. But after leaving Tang Yun's courtyard, he couldn't even wait for someone to fetch the horse, so he jumped directly on the roof and ran straight to King Jing's mansion......
When he arrived at King Jing's Mansion and met Lao King Jing and Song Henghuan, Song Chen knew that after Lin Jin lived in Xiaojiabao for a period of time, he really didn't travel, but returned to Tianjian Peak to live. The next meeting date that Tang Tairu said Lin Jin had made when they were in Tairu Villa was set at that time.
It's also a coincidence, if it weren't for the letter from King Jing's Mansion that was sent to Tairu Villa before Lin Jin and Xiao Jingyu went down the mountain, or if Lin Jin and Tang Tairu had agreed earlier, Lin Jin and the others would have started to travel far away after going to Tairu Villa according to the original plan. At that time, Song Chen's hope of getting married next year may be in vain. Because no one can predict where the two people who see the dragon will go, if they are happy, maybe they will live in the snow oasis or some paradise they encounter by chance for a year and a half, and only come out when they are tired of living and want to change the environment......
But fortunately, the letter written by King Jing was just right sooner or later. Therefore, after learning the news that Song Chen and Su Miao wanted to get married, Lin Jin and Xiao Jingyu immediately canceled their original plans. Together with Tang Tairu, the three of them flipped through the yellow calendar and found out the good days of the year.
"You've chosen the right time, next year will be a good year!" Lao Jing Wuyang raised the letter in his hand, in fact, after he finished the letter, he couldn't help but turn over the yellow calendar with the old princess, and also selected the auspicious days of the zodiac, and corresponded to Tang Tairu's letter this time, "Next year, almost every other month will have an excellent auspicious day to tie the knot!" You see, the eighteenth day of the first month, the tenth day of the second month, the twenty-sixth day of April, the sixteenth day of June, the eighth day of August, the twenty-eighth day of September, and the twenty-eighth day of November! ”
"However, the day of September 20 has already been used by the Rui Palace, and their eldest granddaughter is married on that day......," said King Jing, "and we will not fight with them!" Except for this one day, there are no candidates for the other days for the time being, so we have to choose them as soon as possible and send out the wedding card! "In Selangor, there is an unwritten rule among the royal and aristocratic children that no two families can do their business at the same time on every auspicious zodiac day suitable for tying the knot. Otherwise, they will clash with each other, and it is said that it will not benefit either company. Originally, this was just a conventional, with no substantive basis, and there was no such rule in the Ministry of Rites. But getting married is a happy day, and no one wants to add to the blockage on this kind of day, so over the years, although there may be some disapproval in my heart, no one has violated this practice. Therefore, after determining that they want to do family affairs, each family should set the date as soon as possible and send a wedding card, on the one hand, it is to let their own family have more choices as soon as possible, and on the other hand, it is also good to let other families know which day is occupied, so as to avoid other families coincidentally choosing the same good day. This is a welcome practice for both oneself and other people's families.
But at the beginning, this also led to a drawback, some people were afraid that the good days would be occupied, so they set the date early, two or three years in advance, and some people even exaggerated to the extent that four or five years in advance. But the future is uncertain, these early set the wedding date, when it comes to that date, it may be rescheduled for some reasons, need to be earlier or postponed, at this time, some people who originally wanted to set this date but had to reschedule were uncomfortable, and they blamed the former. The most famous, there is also a trouble in front of the emperor. Song Hengyuan was annoyed by this, and later, he had to order the Ministry of Rites to come up with a charter and come forward to be a peacemaker, stipulating that the specific marriage date could only be set one year in advance at most, which allowed the matter to slowly calm down.
Originally, according to the meaning of King Lao Jing, after discussing with Song Henghuan, he could directly set the date. Marriage events, parents' orders, matchmakers' words! To put it mildly, Song Henghuan can directly choose a wife candidate for Song Chen. It's just that because they also have an unwritten rule in Jingwangfu, they can only have one wife, so they let go of their hands and let the juniors choose for themselves. But after the object of marriage is chosen, the decision to set the date is generally the decision of the father and his grandfather, and in the final analysis, the rest is to listen to his opinion. This is how the wedding dates of the other grandchildren were set.
But when he came to Song Henghuan, he suggested that it would be better to let Song Chen come over too, and it would not be too late for them to listen to his own meaning before making a decision.
Song Chen has always been a person who has his own ideas and likes to be his own masters, which Lao Jing King also knows. And because of Song Henghuan's previous incident, Song Chen still had a faint rejection of his grandfather, otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to ask Song Chen to stay in Syran City to accompany him and the old princess for a period of time when he was recovering from a serious illness. At that time, he was in a weak position, and Song Chen accepted his request out of pity. If he used a tough statement, Song Chen would only refuse and be disgusted when he was stronger, and in this way, the most outstanding grandson, who had finally narrowed some distance, would be farther and farther away from him.
This is definitely not what King Jing wants to see. So when Song Henghuan proposed to let Song Chen decide for himself, he also acquiesced.
In their Jingwangfu vein, before this year, although there were also those who entered the ranks, they have not been able to obtain the qualification to inherit his title. Unexpectedly, Song Henghuan, the two fathers and sons, who usually do not show mountains and waters, both won the emperor's reward as soon as they made a move, and they were able to stand on their own. Now that they have become princes, their relationship with the royal family in the future will be closer than now, and of course he also hopes to see his juniors come together and support each other. So at the moment, the most important thing is that this grandson has as close a relationship with himself as possible.
And although Song Chen is a little alienated by nature, his nature is still very filial, as long as he doesn't touch his scales. And Su Miao, I'm afraid it's his backlash, if he helps him make the decision without permission, if it arouses his disgust, then it's not a matter of half a star, I'm afraid it will be a monstrous wave. In terms of Su Miao's temperament, although it is better than Tang Yun, but unlike Tang Yun's stiff and stunned attitude, she should be a person who hides needles in the cotton, and she is not a person who will persuade Song Chen to obey the arrangement of her elders, and it is not bad if she doesn't take him away and fly high.
