Chapter 53 Placement

The Xu family is in trouble here, but the Hu family is very happy in the Chen family. She finally came out of the place that made her sad and desperate. Now her daughter is by her side, and Chen Yuanheng is in charge, from the surname Hu, and now Hu Mingzhu. Also, Chen Yuanheng and the Bai family are really capable, and after several negotiations, they really asked her dowry back, no, it should be more than before. Because those antique calligraphy and paintings have appreciated, the most powerful thing about Chen Yuanheng is that he has also added the annual income of those two granges, and this addition is more than ten years.

Actually, she didn't think she could get so much back. She just thought that she could get back the part that was still there, mainly the head jewelry, as well as the antique calligraphy and paintings stored in the warehouse. didn't expect Chen Yuanheng to get back even the interest.

Now where can the mother and daughter run out. On this day, Hu Shi came to Bai's room: "Sister, I have lived in your house for so many days, and you don't treat me as an outsider, and you don't avoid me every day. In this way, thanks to your help from Lord Chen, my dowry will be brought back, and Mingzhu and I won't need much, so I'll give it to you. Pay back the money borrowed from the merchant first. ”

Bai Shi smiled when he heard this: "My sister can thank me for thinking about my family so much." But we don't really need to. Anyway, it's all borrowing, is it different to borrow you and borrow from the merchant? Besides, our family has a lot of money-making businesses, or we can pay it back in a few months, which is nothing. Since my sister said so, I have a few words to persuade my sister. ”

Hu Shi said curiously: "Sister, but it doesn't hurt to say." ”

Bai Shi Zhengse said: "My sister now has a lot of silver tickets and jewelry in her hands, antique calligraphy and paintings, these are dead things, and she should buy some industries, so that money is the right way." In the future, my sister will have a lot of money. ”

Hu Shi said curiously: "There are only two of us, where can we use the money?" ”

Bai said: "My sister is now two people, but my sister will buy a house in the future, not that I will drive my sister away, I actually hope that my sister will live here for the rest of her life, but people are terrible, my sister will marry her daughter in the future, so naturally she must have a place to stay." In addition to buying a house, you also have to buy household belongings, add maids, maids, and housekeepers. Not to mention, you will have to give Mingzhu a good marriage in the future, you yourself are still young, and you have to live alone after marrying your daughter, so you have to leave the money for your own life. Also, the most important thing is that my sister's mother's family is like this, it can be said that she is poor and white, and if Master Hu can come back with her family in the future, she will have to take out the money to help her mother's family stand up again. ”

Hu Shi was very moved by what he said, and held Bai's hand and said: "Sister, since I was a child, I only read some Rausch poems, books, and I don't know anything about housekeeping, interpersonal relationships, etc., so I fell to this point." Thanks to his sister, he was saved. My sister just saved me and calculated for me with all her heart, every sentence is reasonable, if others would never say this. It can be seen that my sister treats me as my own sister. It's just that I'm too ashamed, I'm useless to my sister at all, I'm much older than my sister, and I don't have my sister to be transparent in case of trouble, and my sister is trying to plan for me. I don't know what to say. After saying that, tears flowed again.

Bai was also moved by Hu, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe Hu's tears.

Hu Shi wiped his tears and said: "My sister thinks very thoughtfully, but I don't know how to run it, and no one uses it, how to buy a house, how to buy a property, and who to take care of it?" ”

Bai said: "The matter of the house is the most urgent, I have asked my housekeeper to see it, and I believe that I will be able to inquire in a few days." ”

Hu Shi listened and said, "Then I'm not welcome, I want your housekeeper to find me a place that can be closer to you." There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, and it is better to be close to the county office, and there are many people in the province who come to the door. And our mother and mother are here to communicate with your family, and I still want to be closer to you. ”

Bai said: "My sister is the same as I think. Not only do I think so, but I'm afraid that our two daughters also think so, and now the two of them eat and live together like glue, if they are separated, it would be strange if they didn't make trouble, if they could be closer, it would be good for them to come and go. ”

Hu Shi couldn't help but laugh when he heard and thought about his daughter and Chen Wenhui's appearance.

Bai Shi also said: "The first thing to open a house is how to buy a property, I think so, I will also let Chen Cai inquire, buy a Zhuangzi, and then look at buying a shop, so that every year just to collect rent can be used by the two of you." You can save some money and keep it for future use, but you can't make money. ”

Hu Shi was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly urged Bai Shi to do it. Bai immediately called Chen Cai's family and told him about buying a house and buying a farm shop. Chen Cai knew that the Hu family and the hostess were good, and he was busy doing his best.

Within a few days, I said back and forth that I found two houses, one on the back street of the county government, and went out from the back door of the county office, facing each other, but the house was a little smaller, just a two-in, and the price was cheaper. One is a street away from the county government, where there are five big houses, and the price is more expensive. As soon as Hu Shi heard this, he immediately asked for a small house, and said: "We are two mothers, and the two of them are older, but they are just scholars, and they were originally to separate the inside and outside, and Mingzhu and I lived in the backyard, and the front yard was reserved for the guests, and the housekeepers and nurses lived in the courtyard, just right." The best thing is to dream that there is no such closeness, so that our two mansions are still like one mansion, so let's do it. ”

Bai Shi listened and thought about it, but he still went through the back door and took Chen Wenhui, Mingzhu, and Hu Shi to see it with Chen Cai. Sure enough, this small house is very good, the first five two-entry houses, and the last one with a small garden in the middle, Hu Shi and Mingzhu liked it at a glance. The house is neither new nor old, but if you want to live in it, you still have to repair it.

Hu said, "That's it. The price is also right, that is, to repair it, the furniture is not even, or to play some. ”

Bai said: "Since my sister has decided, let's do this." It's strange for me to look good, it's rare to be so close. Repairing the house and building furniture were handed over to Chen Caiban. It is necessary to buy a few maids, mothers-in-law, cooks, housekeepers, maids, grooms, and nurses. ”

Hu Shi's head hurt when he heard it: "My sister is always so organized about family affairs. I'm not good at being a sister, and I'm dizzy when I hear it. It's just that one guest doesn't bother the two masters, and it's all my sister who is in charge of it. ”

Bai smiled: "Sister, you just suffer a loss in the eyes of your heart, will you suffer in the future, you still have a pearl in front of you, do you still want Mingzhu to suffer?" ”

When Hu Shi heard this, he immediately became serious: "Sister, what you said is very true, just teach me, and Mingzhu, I can't let Mingzhu be as incompetent as me in the future." ”

When Bai Shi saw it, he said: "What is not taught, just such a little thing, with the wisdom of my sister and Mingzhu, I will definitely learn it." Since the house has been decided, let Chen Cai handle it, let's go back to the house first. I'll tell you slowly. ”

A few people calmly returned to Bai's room after a while. Bai and Hu sat opposite each other in the flower hall, and Chen Wenhui and Mingzhu sat below. The Bai family asked people to call Chen Cai's family.

Waiting for time, Bai asked Hu: "Sister, didn't you marry a few capable family members when you got married?" ”

As soon as he asked this, Hu's tears came out, and he cried and said: "Why not, I have four maids, all of whom were personally trained by my mother at home, I know you, I can only read books, chant poems and paint, where can I do this." My mother helped me train four maids, and now I think they are all the best, and I don't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the housekeeper calculates the accounts, and the kitchen work is good at one top and one needlework, but the appearance is more ordinary. I think my mother specially found me an ordinary-looking person who taught me the skills of childhood. But I'm a foolish person, after marrying that person, he first told me that my maid looks so ordinary, and she doesn't know anything elegant at all, no matter how she looks like a scholarly maid, even if she takes it out, she will be laughed at. Egging me on, I bought a few maids who could play and sing. Later, I have no children, so I can only put my face in the room, I originally intended to carry the few colors better, can play and sing, but the person said, not like an aunt, just want to guard me, but for the sake of the heirs, just carry a few, and said that this aunt must be with me, my wedding maid is the best. I was very moved when I heard this, so I lifted up my four good ones. Now it's okay, my food, clothing, housing, and housekeeping affairs all fell on the few I bought later, and later, the four aunts died in miscarriage, and some made mistakes and were sold by him. I'm the only one left. Isn't it at his mercy? ”

Mingzhu was stunned when she heard this, she never knew this, it turned out that the maid was so important, but she had never used the maid in Xu Mansion before, but she didn't expect it. This made her think deeply.

Chen Wenhui thought in her heart, sure enough, this Hu family is really a straw bag, no wonder, it will fall to the point of later.

Bai Shi sighed and said, "Originally, these words were not heard by your girls. But if you don't understand these things in the future, you will suffer a great loss. Therefore, if a good maid wants it, she must understand it herself, or she will be led by the nose by the people below, isn't that waiting to suffer. Therefore, you must pay attention to your affairs in the future. Especially Mingzhu, you haven't studied at home before, and in the future, I have to deal with the affairs of the house every morning, and Hui'er has been learning with it, so you should follow it now. ”

The collection hasn't increased these days, why? Asking for recommendations, asking for collections, I'm working hard.
