Chapter 262: Harbor

Liu Jingyuan couldn't help but say: "It's really incomparable, your painting boat is really like a noble swan, so beautiful, so dreamy." And so luxurious. You're going to enjoy it. Chongyi, no, I want to move in too. Look at the beautiful lakes and mountains, carved beams and painted buildings, there are no elders in your house, no need to talk about any rules, and there are no eyes to stare at. There are so many deliberately styled yards. I like the herb-covered Hengzhi Courtyard the most, why don't we live there as a family for a while? ”

Chen Wenhui said with a smile: "Hurry up and move in, I have just the two of us here, and the three masters of Langxue, such a big house, so many servants, sometimes, I think that this house is not for us to live in at all, but for the people." ”

Mingzhu smiled and said, "It's not like this, but Jing Yuan's idea is good, I think we can come here to live here for a while." I can also get rid of the complicated chores and steal half a day's leisure. ”

Chen Wenhui chuckled and said, "Okay, talented girl, don't nag here, let's hurry up and get on the painting boat, we can have dinner, and when we reach the middle of the lotus, we can start eating." ”

Mingzhu smiled and was helped on the boat by Liu Jingyuan. Zhao Chongyi helped Chen Wenhui onto the boat with a very good eye. Lang Xue got on the boat under the service of the jade bottle.

On this day, everyone had a lot of fun, enjoying the lake scenery on the boat, while eating delicious food, the interest came up, and the snow also made people bring her Yaoqin, and stroked the qin, which added to the interest.

In the evening, Chen Wenhui and Zhao Chongyi were still Zhang Nuan at the Spring Festival. Zhao Chongyi has been eating the marrow these days. was very infatuated with Chen Wenhui, and after eating early, he pulled Chen Wenhui back to the room to rest, which made Chen Wenhui's face red, fortunately there were no elders in this house, and no one said anything about the two of them.

After bathing in the snow at night, he sat in front of the dressing table, and was served by the jade bottle to comb his hair, when Yuqin came in and said, "Girl." Just now, the slave maid went to East Street to see the six shops. It's all rented by one owner. The six shops are all on the bustling East Street, three stories high, and the bottom is used as a shop, and the top is for distinguished guests. There is also a small yard at the back. I can park a carriage. There is also a podium, part of which is used as a warehouse, and part of it is used for the work of the store. That's why I can rent at such a high price. ”

Langxue didn't dare to snub Yuqin. Said to the jade bottle: "Hurry up and move a stool for Sister Yuqin." ”

Yuhua hurriedly moved a stool for Yuqin.

Yuqin hurriedly said: "Girl, don't treat the slave like this, the county lord rewarded us to the girl, and we will all be the girl's people in life and death in the future." Please don't see the girl. ”

Seeing her sincerity, Lang Xue just said, "Are you from the Chen family or someone from Qingchun City?" ”

Yuqin said: "I am the son of the Xiao Chen family. Now our family has come to the county lord's mansion with us. I am the eldest in the family, my sister is a little maid in the county lord's place, and my younger brother is a sweeper in the outer study. My father is a groom, and my mother is the steward of the house. Our family used to be in Xiao Chen's family. They were all delivered to the county lord. It's a member of the county lord's mansion. However, our skills were all learned in Xiao Chen's family. I can settle accounts and understand the in-law relationship between these officials and eunuchs in the capital, and they all learned it in Xiao Chen's family. ”

Lang Xue nodded, she just thought, this Yuqin's general temperament is not ordinary, it is really trained by the family, but it is different. However, since their family is now working on errands in the house, they should be very loyal and can be used with confidence. Speaking of which, this new Yuqin, Yuxue may have to use some more than jade bottles and jade tassels in the future.

Thinking of this, Lang Xue opened the clip, took out four small red gold stirrup rings, and said: "In the future, the jade bottle, the jade tassel, the jade qin, and the jade snow, you are the four big girls beside me, each with its own responsibilities, and we must work together, we must not let our yard make jokes, and we must be cautious on errands." Assist me well. If I have anything I can't think of, I have to be reminded, and if I have done something wrong, I have to sue me. I'll treat you like sisters. These four little rings will be given to you. I hope that your sisters will be of the same mind, and their benefits will be broken. ”

The four big girls hurriedly came over, and when they arrived, they received the reward.

Lang Xue continued: "The four of you, some are from the Liu family, and some are from the Xiao Chen family, no matter where you come from, you also know. My sister-in-law has already given me all your deeds of sale, and your life and death are all mine, so in the future, you can't fight each other, you have to support each other, understand? Learn from each other's strengths, can't do things to pass the buck, if I find out, you must know, my sister-in-law is a person in power, this is a good time, very good, if she finds out that it is not good, the punishment is also very severe, don't get to that time, you will suffer, and I will have no face. ”

This means that after the reward is over, then a big stick will be given. The four maids hurriedly bowed down.

Ling Xue nodded in satisfaction.

Let them all get up and say, "In the future, Yuxue will be responsible for my going out." The sister-in-law said that Yuxue is more proficient in the relationship between these noble girls and famous families in the capital. My property, the daily expenses in our yard, except for your monthly money, which is received in the account room, is in the public office, and the rest are in the management of Yuqin. As for the clothes around me, the jewelry belongs to the jade tassel. The jade bottle is in charge of my work, such as eating, combing my hair, and serving me closely. Got it? ”

All four of them should come down. Yuqin looked at the jade bottle quietly, it seems that the girl still trusts the jade bottle more.

The jade bottle is also very happy, this is equivalent to announcing that she is the head of the four big girls, originally, she came here, saw Yuqin, Yuxue Mo is good, the ability is also strong, and everyone in the house is very familiar, and the heart is not a taste, now when I hear it, the girl really still trusts her and Yuying the most, and her heart is suddenly happy.

After the assignment was completed, Lang Xue asked Yuhua to continue combing her hair, and then said to Yuqin: "Yuqin, you continue." ”

Yuqin hurriedly said, "Yes, girl." I had afternoon contact with the owner of the shop that rented us. The signing of the documents has also been completed. Girl, this is the title deed of the shop, this is our lease contract, are they all put away? ”

Lang Xue said, "You find a clip and put these separately, and I'll receive the box in a moment." ”

Yuqin nodded hurriedly. Then he said, "Also, girl, I took the deposit of 10,000 taels of silver to the bank and deposited it for a fixed term. This way the interest rate is higher. This is a deposit receipt, please keep it with the girl. There are also three thousand taels of silver tickets, please put them away from the girl. Also, there is an extra thousand taels of silver tickets, which was just now called me by Sister Shuilian, who was next to the county lord, and gave it to me, saying that it was during the day, and the county lord said that it would be pocket money for the girl. ”

Rong Xue was stunned for a moment and said, "During the day, I said it." At that time, my sister-in-law was worried that my rent of 3,000 taels would not be available until a few months, so she gave me 1,000 taels of silver to spend first. However, I didn't expect that my brother would be so neat, get the shop done so quickly, and get this year's rent back. We have these three thousand taels of silver a year, how can we spend enough, why do we need this thousand taels from our sister-in-law? Why don't you take it and return it to Shuilian tomorrow, just say thank you, we don't need it, right? ”

Yuqin hesitated.

Lang Xue hurriedly said: "Yuqin, if you have any ideas, just say it." ”

Yuqin then said: "I don't think I need to pay back this thousand taels." The girl has less contact with our county lord, and she doesn't know our county lord's temper. In fact, this silver is nothing in the eyes of the county lord. The girl's three thousand taels of silver were earned by the second master from giving his property to the girl. It's not from the county lord. The county lord, as a sister-in-law, watched the girl's brother give the girl something, and she didn't give it as a sister-in-law. She gave us a thousand taels, and we took it happily, and we had a better life, but I am afraid that she will be even happier. If it is pushed around, it will make the county lord feel unhappy and make her unhappy. ”

Thinking about it, Chen Wenhui is really such a person.

He smiled and said, "You're right, so be it." Tomorrow, I will see my sister-in-law and thank you in person, so I will take this thousand taels as well. Now we have four thousand taels of silver. Jade bottle, before, our silver was in your hands, how much do we have left? ”

The jade bottle said, "We have three hundred and eighty-three taels of silver left." ”

Luo Xue nodded and said to Yuqin: "This is the pocket money that my brother gave me when I was in Liufu before, and I didn't spend it. You put it away, and when the time comes, we will ask you for the expenses, and you just need to keep the accounts clear. Let's spend a few thousand taels evenly, don't spend it all at once. I'm not very good at managing money, since my sister-in-law said that you are good at accounting, I think you are also good at financial management. You do the math, we probably have those larger expenses in a year, and then, deduct the rest, average the rest, and calculate how much we can spend each month, so that when we spend money, we can have some spectrum. ”

Yuqin hurriedly said: "It's a girl, I'll go here, and when it's done, I'll talk back to the girl." ”

Snowfall nodded.

Yuqin went down. The jade bottle has waited for the snow to clear her hair, and she has smeared skin care products on her face. Rong Xue looked at the mirror that could reflect her delicately, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, the things here are all good things, you see that this skin care products are stronger than the fat powder we bought outside, this is smeared on the face, and the skin is moisturized a lot." ”

The jade bottle said: "Isn't the girl's foundation good, and her skin is white and tender?" ”

Lang Xue smiled and nodded, and under the service of the jade bottle, went to bed, this bed is very wide, it is a thousand work beds with carved beams and paintings, very gorgeous, hanging the tent of ink calligraphy and painting white silk, it looks very elegant. Lying up, the brocade quilt is smooth, soft and warm. The house was already lit with sweet incense, and in such a wonderful environment, I fell asleep in the snow. After so many years of wandering, she finally found a haven from the wind. (To be continued......)
