Chapter Forty-Nine, The Grange

The early summer is over, the summer is coming, and it is the day of the summer evil, and the new house that Mu Chenxue has been looking forward to is finally built. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info three main rooms sit north and face south, except for the middle of Cheng's house without a pankang, she and her younger brother's house are directly to the wooden bed on the kang and spread the mat,

Mu Chenxue asked Jiang's mother about the late autumn and early winter in Jixian County, the temperature began to plummet, and the winter was so cold that the water turned into ice and the air turned into frost. In previous years, the eldest lady had never prepared silver charcoal for the backyard, and it was mostly Aunt Cheng and Jiang's mother who figured it out by themselves. In addition to this reason, Mu Chenxue was also afraid of charcoal dioxide poisoning, so he insisted on putting kang on the two rooms.

And Cheng's has been accustomed to living in a wooden bed since she was a child, and Mu Chenxue is afraid that she will not be used to sleeping, so only her room uses a fire wall, because it is connected to the fire kang in both rooms, even if Cheng's house does not light a charcoal basin in winter, it will not feel cold.

In addition to the three main rooms, a firewood room was also built at the corner gate, which just covered the newly opened corner door.

However, until the house was built, Mu Qian also came to visit, and even the eldest lady only sent Jinhong to take a look.

"Jinhong, there are really three main houses in the backyard? But I remember that the yard was not big, so it shouldn't be able to build three rooms, right? The eldest lady Cheng couldn't figure it out, although she asked Jinhong, she looked at the nurse beside her.

"Mrs. Hui, the courtyard in the backyard looks much bigger than before, and the slave maid has checked it, and there is a room wide on the side of the courtyard! And the three main rooms are only slightly larger in the middle, and the two next ones are very small. There is not even a bed in the house, but there are two kangs, and everything is an old object, which looks very rustic! In fact, what Jinhong said is also true, but she didn't look carefully, the windows of the three rooms are open in the north and south, warm in winter and cool in summer, not to mention the jujube trees and persimmon trees planted on the side of the partition wall, although the newly transplanted trees will not bear fruit in two years, but the lush canopy can block the smell of the courtyard.

"Madam, according to the old slave, although the old man has repaired the house for Aunt Cheng, he is afraid that he is not dedicated, otherwise there is no reason to let the fifth lady and the ninth young master live in the kang house!" In the eunuch's house, the houses of the pankang are all for the subordinates to live in, and they are also called Tongpu. Although the nurse's words were comforting, the eldest lady listened to it in her heart, and she was still jealous because of the completion of the new house in the backyard, but now she was a lot more comfortable.

"People who are hot these days are upset, and the lord mentioned that he wanted to send the fifth sister to school, if I hadn't persuaded me to stop it, Aunt Cheng wouldn't know how to be proud! She came to say hello early this morning, I look better than when I first entered the summer, if the master sees it, I'm afraid that the soul will be hooked again! "The construction period of the backyard is over, and Aunt Cheng's mother and son come to the inner courtyard to say hello to the eldest lady in the morning and dusk.

"No matter how she tosses, you gave birth to the eldest son of the shogunate, and the master treats the eldest young master differently from other brothers. As long as you are the head of the shogunate, those people are not in your hands! ”

"The nurse is always so relieved of my heart, Peng'er is really a good boy, since the list was released, the master invited a master for Peng'er to teach alone, but it is busier than before, except for morning and evening, it is difficult for even me to see Peng'er!" When it comes to her son, the eldest lady has a happy face of having a son, as long as Mu Peng is willing to work hard, she can get a jinshi in the future and have an official position, then she will have something to rely on.

"The eldest young master is willing to work hard, that is the blessing of the lady!" The master and servant chatted with each other, but they didn't know that Mu Chenxue had asked for peace in the morning, and sneaked out of the house. The Grange has already been set up, but she hasn't seen it yet, so today she made an appointment with Nangong Shumo to see Zhuangzi together.

The two changed their clothes and went straight to the outside of the city in a carriage, "Sister Xue, this grange is more than half an hour's drive from the county seat, and half an hour away from the nearest village. "These things were as early as when they were landcut, Nangong Shumo told them about Chenxue, and when she mentioned them today, she was afraid that she still had taboos in her heart.

"'My life is up to me, not to the sky', these feng shui numerology things, Brother Feng doesn't need to worry about me. As long as the fields are good, there are no people around the clear and quiet, and the government and strongmen don't come to find trouble! "Mu Chenxue has heard that the grange not only has more than 100 acres of medium fertile land, but also has blue bricks and gray tile courtyards and stone walls. And I don't know what Nangong Shumo has done, and the price is even fairer, until now, she can't believe that it's true.

"What a sentence 'my life is up to me'!" Perhaps it is precisely because of Mu Chenxue, who often speaks amazingly, and has the ambition not to lose to a man, that he Nangong Shumo will be sincere to this little woman who has not yet grown up. I repeatedly recited this sentence of Mu Chenxue in my heart, and my eyes were full of love.

Tong Jiang drove the car, and Feng Wu rode a horse to follow. This time, Mu Chenxue did not hide it from Tong Jiang anymore, and even introduced Nangong Shumo to him. However, he didn't tell him how they met, but lied and lied that he had helped this person when he first went out of the city to collect medicine, and he had formed a fate.

She can't leave the house at any time, and in the future, the business will get bigger and bigger, and someone will have to do these things for her. And with her identity, only Tong Jiang is the most trustworthy.

In order to treat his leg injury, Tong Jiang has always blamed himself for the fact that the fifth miss sneaked out of the house, so the fifth miss found such an excuse, he just had doubts about the master and servant of Nangong Shumo in his heart, and he didn't dare to ask. What's more, he could see that Nangong Shumo and Feng Wu both had kung fu on them, and they were not idle people. In his opinion, such a big change in Miss Five's behavior must be related to this person. But Miss Fifth gave a gag order, even Mother Jiang was not allowed to tell her, he could only pay attention secretly, and don't let Miss Fifth be calculated.

The Grange is bigger than Mu Chenxue imagined, and the Zhuangzi is the courtyard of the three entrances. The 100 acres of fields are close to the branch canal next to the main river, and the water source is abundant. And it is only separated from Fengqi Mountain by more than 20 acres of wasteland, and a small piece of woods, and there are no other people on the left and right.

"Sister Xue has seen it with her own eyes, you can rest assured this time!" When she first bought the land, Mu Chenxue insisted on wanting to come and see it with her own eyes, not that she didn't trust Nangong Shumo, but that she had always only believed it, and what she saw might not be true, let alone what she heard.

"Brother Feng does things, what is there to worry about. I just want to plant another crop of land before the frost falls, so I want to come and see, but for farming, I'm afraid I'm also talking on paper, I don't know what to plant? ”

"I've only heard people talk about farming, and I don't have any experience. This matter has to be decided by asking the old master to take a look! Nangong Shumo also arranged for Mu Chenxue, and bought a total of three families for her, and she was already waiting for Zhuangzi at this time.
