Steward Wu of the Su Mansion rode a horse and followed the carriage outside, and dutifully introduced, "Madam, Miss Rong, Master Hou asked me to ask the two of you, do you want to build a manor here together, or how do you want to arrange it?" ”

Mrs. Su looked at Mother Lu, but Mother Lu looked at Rong Yunhe and remained silent.

Rong Yunhe looked at those manors, frowned slightly, and asked, "Steward Wu, where is our field?" ”

"Oh, and about half a mile further in."

Rong Yunhe nodded: "Let's go to the field and have a look." ”

Steward Wu has been in Su Mansion for many years and has won the trust of Hou Ye Su, so he is extremely clear about Rong Yunhe's status in Hou Ye's mind. He still didn't dare to slack off on Rong Yunhe, and seeing that Mrs. Su did not object at this time, he hurriedly called the coachman to drive inside.

Walking inside, there are still large fields. After walking about half a mile, the carriage stopped. Steward Wu said: "Two ladies, Miss Rong, our field is here." ”

Rong Yunhe said to Mrs. Su: "Auntie, I want to get out of the car and have a look." ”

Mrs. Su smiled: "I'm also a little tired after sitting in the car for a long time, so let's get out of the car and take a walk." But Nan, before you come, Heng'er can explain to me, let me take care of you, don't let you walk more. Stand down and take a look and get in the car, but you can't get tired. Otherwise, I will be blamed by Heng'er when I get home. ”

"Aunt Su......" When Rong Yunhe heard this, he was disgusted, quickly turned around, and got out of the car with a blushing face amid a series of "be careful" shouts from Mrs. Su and Mother Lu.

Steward Wu had already gotten off his horse and waited. Seeing that Yahuan helped the two ladies to stand under the car, she pointed to the front and said, "From the side of the road." In front of the hill in front of us is our field. From this trail, there is a large area of one hundred and forty hectares to the east. It is the field of Sioux Province; Sixty acres to the west is the field of the Rong family. ”

Rong Yunhe saw that the extremely flat field stretched inward, and a small green hill appeared two hundred meters away.

"Is that river the upper reaches of the creek we just saw at the manor? Why do I see that there seems to be a house on the other side of the mountain? Rong Yunhe asked, pointing to a river in front of the hill and a faintly warping roof.

"Yes, Miss Yung, this is the same river as the manor. The house belonged to the Xiao family, and there was a hundred hectares of land further inside. It belongs to his family. ”

"Let's go, let's go and see." Rong Yunhe was interested when he heard it.

"Hello, you can't go far." Mrs. Su immediately stopped her.

"Aunt Sue. You see it's not far ahead, I'll walk slowly, take a break for a while, okay? I looked ahead, and the scenery was nice. I'm thinking of building a small yard here. It's hard to make a trip. Why don't you let me understand, Ming'er, if I come alone, don't you have to worry? Rong Yunhe turned around, took Mrs. Su's arm and began to be coquettish. This trick is a hundred trials to deal with Lu's mother, and I don't know if Mrs. Su can eat this set.

Mrs. Su has only had Fu Heng as a son in her life. After arriving in Pingzhou City, although Xue Wuniang was brought in, she was a person who couldn't talk or do things, which only gave her a headache. Where have you ever seen a cute girl like Rong Yunhe? As soon as she was delicate, her love for Rong Yunhe suddenly rose. Principled was immediately left behind, and he replied in a loud voice: "Okay, okay, okay." But you have to promise your aunt. Take a break after a walk. Go to the front and let Yahuan carry you for a while. ”

"Okay." Rong Yunhe nodded like pecking rice, took Mrs. Su's arm and walked in. Although this is unfair to Yahuan, she can't care so much at this time.

Seeing this, Lu's mother shook her head angrily and funny, and followed them slowly inside.

"Slow down, slow down, be careful." The distance of two hundred meters finally came to the end in the constant sound of Mrs. Su's words. Several women stood on the bank of the river with Steward Wu.

"Steward Wu, where is our land at the foot of the mountain and by the river?" Rong Yunhe looked at the terrain in front of him and asked.

The mountains and rivers are extremely interesting. The river is not wide, and the distance between the two banks is only two or three meters. But it encloses the hill in an "S" shape. The house of the Na Xiao family is on the back of the hill, on the periphery of the "s". On the front of the hill, an "S"-shaped river encloses an area of the whole hectare in front of the hill, forming an island. This isolated island is definitely a good place in Rong Yunhe's eyes. As long as you build a bridge to cross it, it is an excellent place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

She was afraid that this place would not belong to the list of fields she bought, and she was afraid that Mrs. Su would also like this place. Although the place is so wide that two houses can be built. But the close proximity of the two families means that there are many inconveniences. And she wants to grow vegetables, flowers and fields on this island, and such a large area can only be monopolized by the family.

"With this hill as the boundary, Shanyin is the Xiao family, and Shanyang is our home." Steward Wu can also speak, and directly said that the Su and Jiang families are one family.

When Rong Yunhe heard this, he was overjoyed, and quickly turned his head and looked at Mrs. Su pitifully: "Auntie, you bought the land here, do you want to build a house?" Where would you like to build it? ”

That's how I asked, but as long as I have eyes, look at this little girl, I know that she is in this place. Slowly, Mrs. Su didn't have any ideas, but she had ideas, and she had to dispel her thoughts at this time.

She stretched out her finger, nodded Rong Yunhe's forehead and said, "You, if you want to choose this place, choose it." It doesn't matter if my aunt and uncle don't live there often, just find another place to build a house nearby. ”

Rong Yunhe was also not polite, and flicked his sleeves deeply: "In this way, my niece will thank my aunt and uncle for fulfilling my wishes." ”

This nondescript salute made Mrs. Su laugh out loud: "Okay." Knowing that you have an idea, you draw a picture of the style of the yard you want to build, and then I will ask Heng'er to find someone to help you build it. Just wait and stay. ”

Steward Wu showed hesitation on his face, with an expression of wanting to say something.

"Steward Wu, please have something to say." Seeing this, Rong Yunhe spoke.

"The place that the girl chose seems to be good. But there are two shortcomings, if the villain does not tell the girl, it is a dereliction of duty. Steward Wu said.

"If you have something to say, just say it." Mrs. Su was impatient to watch Steward Wu sell Guanzi.

"The reason why the old men in the city chose to build a manor in one place. It's so that if something happens, we can take care of each other and ensure safety. In this way, even if you don't live in the Zhuangzi often, even if you don't send someone to guard it, you are not afraid of losing things. But if the girl settles her home here, Young Master Rong is young, and he will go to school in the academy after a while.

Only the female dependents of the family remained. It's not safe to live here, and that's one thing; Second, the upper reaches of the river are wider. The lower part of the manor is also wider, but the middle section of the river bank is narrower, and it is very easy to be flooded once it occurs. The girl saw that the Xiao family had built a house outside the river. That's it. Even if the river is swollen. They are also able to evacuate quickly. But if the girl had made her home in the creek beyond the hill, she would be trapped in the river if it rose. So at this time, the scenery is very good, but no one is building a house here, this is the reason. ”

Rong Yunhe's heart was cold when he said this, and he asked without giving up: "Does this small river rise every year?" ”

"Not really." Steward Wu said, "The villain also just came here from the border with Master Hou. However, because of the purchase of this field, the villain specially asked. The creek flooded about a decade ago. At that time, not only here, but also half of the field was flooded. ”

"Every year, the water rises in May and June, right?" Rong Yunhe asked again.

"Yes. Girl. ”

"That's fine. Every year in May or June, if it rains heavily, we move to Pingqiao Village, right? In fact, the rising water is slowly rising, as long as we see that the water is full, we can evacuate, but it will not be like Steward Wu said that there is no time to evacuate. Rong Yunhe said, "Besides, it is precisely with this small river that a natural fortification has been formed, so there is no need to worry about the safety that Steward Wu just said." Build a small bridge, block the bridge, and no one can get in. ”

Steward Wu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Miss Rong is right. On the contrary, I listened and believed, and everyone agreed. ”

Seeing that Steward Wu also agreed with his point of view, Rong Yunhe was in a good mood. How easy is it to find a good place? This place is not far from the manor and the tenant farmer's residence, and with the Xiao family as its neighbor, and the terrain is like a castle, if it is really for some reason that she can't build a house here, she must not vomit to death?

"Will this matter be discussed again?" Mrs. Su listened to Steward Wu's words, but she didn't agree with Rong Yunhe building a house here, and persuaded, "I think it's better to let Hou Ye and Heng'er help them think about it before deciding, what do you think?" ”

"Yes, yes, what Steward Wu said is not unreasonable, let's think about it again." Lu's mother also said.

"Oh well. Then please ask Uncle Su to help see if it is suitable. Seeing that they had a negative attitude, Rong Yunhe was not stubborn, so he had to respond for the time being.

She looked at the flat and fertile fields, and asked Steward Wu, "I don't know how this tenant farmer was arranged when he bought the land?" ”

"Let's buy these 200 hectares, which is the field of Lord Yang of Ru Lin Lang in the city. In addition to Master Yang, there are three hundred acres further inside. Knowing that the Hou Ye wanted to buy the land, he gave up 200 hectares, and along with the transfer of the land, there were 52 tenant farmers who had rented the 200 hectares of land. The villain had gone to meet with the tenant farmers early this morning, and they had no objection to the transfer. Hou Ye asked the villain to ask the girl, whether the tenant farmer let the Hou Mansion manage it in one place, or manage it separately. If it was managed separately, the villain would have asked the head of the twenty families who had rented the sixty hectares of land to visit the girl. ”

Although the Su family is very good, Rong Yunhe still doesn't want the Rong family to control everything in the hands of the Su Mansion, so he thought about it and said, "Let's manage it separately." Uncle Su and Su Gongzi are usually busy with official business, and they worry about everything, and our family can't worry about it. In addition, my brother is getting older, and although he is concentrating on his studies, he is also a kind of exercise for him to learn to manage the affairs of the fields when he has free time. ”

"The world is full of knowledge, and the practice of human feelings is the article?" Steward Wu tasted this sentence for a while, and praised it with a smile: "Good sentence, good philosophy." A few days ago, I heard that the girl showed her talent at the flower viewing party, and the villain regretted that he could not witness the girl's demeanor at that time. If you can hear this poem today, the villain has no regrets. ”

Rong Yunhe didn't expect himself

Sweating in his heart, Rong Yunhe smiled embarrassedly: "A casual stubborn sentence is really not a good sentence." Steward Wu praised falsely, and Rong Yun was ashamed to be no longer improper. The flower viewing party that day was also forced to be helpless, and it was lucky to get through, not because Rong Yunhe had any great talent. Steward Wu said this again, but he was ashamed of Rong Yunhe, and there was no need to mention this matter. After saying that, Steward Wu had to say more, and quickly changed the topic, "Let's go to the tenant farmer's farm together, I want to meet with the twenty tenant farmers who rent my family's land." ”

Seeing that Rong Yunhe really didn't want to say any more, Steward Wu had to swallow the rebuttal, and his good impression of Rong Yunhe increased greatly. He has followed Su Congyi for so many years and has seen countless people. Some people have straw bales in their stomachs, and they still pretend to be learned; Some are only half a bottle of vinegar, but they show their talent everywhere; And if you are lucky enough to meet one or two talented people, you will look at the sky even more. Where is like the girl of the Rong family, who is obviously extremely talented, but she is modest and low-key, which is really impressive.

If Rong Yunhe knew that he was just telling the truth, he would provoke Steward Wu to look up to her, and he couldn't tell how to cry or laugh in his heart.

Mrs. Su saw this on the side and nodded secretly. Steward Wu was also a talented person back then, but he was tired by the family and auctioned off as an official slave, because Su Congyi had a personal relationship with him, so he bought him and asked him to help take care of the family property. Although he has been a subordinate over the years, except for the three people of Su Mansion in his eyes, no one can enter his eyes. Unexpectedly, on today's trip, Rong Yunhe convinced him, which made Mrs. Su even more interested in marrying Rong Yunhe as her daughter-in-law. Just remembering that Rong Yunhe and Fu Heng's marriage had withdrawn, and she was going to be accepted as a daughter-in-law again, and she didn't know how many twists and turns she would have to go through, she couldn't help but sigh deeply.

A few people came out of the field, and then got into the car to go to the car, and in less than a pillar of incense, they saw a few mud houses. Further inside, there is a hillside, on which hundreds of families live densely, and it seems to be a large village.

"Steward Wu, these tenant farmers live so intensively, if one or two have brains to gather their hearts, wouldn't they make a big incident?" Rong Yunhe couldn't help but feel a little strange when he looked at this scene. In her opinion, dispersing the place of residence can distract people's hearts, and it should be easier to manage.
