The three Shujie brothers and sisters discussed with Liu's mother and Hongmei about going to the capital with them this time.

Hongmei's lips moved, as if she was hesitating, and quickly closed her ......

Shu Yao smiled: "What's wrong with Aunt Mei?" You are our Aunt Mei, a family, you can say whatever you want. ”

Shujie also said: "Exactly, is there something wrong with my arrangement just now?" ”

Hongmei shook her head, thought about it again, and then said with a decision: "Aunt Mei wants to stay in Yulin to guard the house, and also look at the tofu shop and a few Zhuangzi, as well as those shops and yards that are rented out, but Aunt Mei is reluctant to leave you so far." ”

In Aunt Mei's view, Yulin is the root of the three Shujie brothers and sisters, and this imperial mansion and Yulin's industry are their confidence. Now, except for Ajuan's sister-in-law and Sun's daughter-in-law, who are in charge of the tofu workshop and two tofu shops, and Zhang Quan, the head of the village on the first Zhuangzi, there are few reliable and capable stewards.

Aunt Mei thought about staying in Yulin for another year and a half, and when the personnel here were all fully allocated, she would select a chief steward who would be responsible for all the accounts, and Shujie and they would also settle down in the capital, and she would go to Beijing again.

Mother Liu nodded: "It's okay, the tofu workshop and tofu shop must first select a general account room to cooperate with Sister-in-law Ajuan and Daughter-in-law Sun to take care of the business." The other two Zhuangzi Zhuangzi are still in the investigation stage, and it is not good to let go too quickly. "Sister-in-law Ajuan and Sister-in-law Sun are illiterate, and they used to pay the account directly to Aunt Mei every day, and Aunt Mei made a simple registration of income and expenditure. Since the addition of a shop and the relocation and expansion of the workshop, Shujie was afraid that Aunt Mei would work too hard, so he proposed to add an account.

Shujie pondered for a while: "Aunt Mei just do what you think, don't worry about us." Red brocade is what you are used to. It's better to follow you, fight and help with chores, errands, and everything. Uncle Bao worked as a porter, coachman, and gardener, while Aunt Bao and their two daughters were in charge of the kitchen and the yard. ”

Uncle Bao's son, the twelve-year-old Changsheng (who has been renamed Yongjin), is now Shujie's little servant, and he will also follow him into Beijing. This is what Liu's mother meant, Uncle Bao's family is also very happy, the only son can follow the eldest young master, the son is no better than the two daughters, and the most important thing is to have a future. It doesn't have to be around.

As for the other servants and maids in the palace, Shujie decided to bring them all into Beijing, although he couldn't be sure if he would stay in the capital if he went. But at least you have to live for about half a year, and it's better to use familiar people. There are also nursing homes, and the current eight nursing homes were carefully selected by Wang Xi two years ago, and their temperament is also good.

After the relevant matters in Beijing were negotiated, Xiao Xiutao, who was quietly embroidering on the side, looked at Aunt Mei with an aggrieved face: "Mother." Me? ”

Shujie smiled: "Does Tao'er want to go to the capital with us, or stay in Yulin with Aunt Mei first?" ”

"The girl is still teaching me to read, and I still have to learn embroidery from Mother Liu, but I can't delay," Xiu Tao replied as if she was "serious", and then pursed her mouth again. "But when I go to the capital, I won't see my mother for a long time? But, but. I haven't been to the capital yet. ”

Everyone was amused by her rapid change of face, and before she could praise her for being sensible and diligent, she couldn't wait to expose all her careful thoughts.

Aunt Mei nodded her forehead and said with a smile: "Naturally, you followed the young master and the girl to Beijing first." Mother is very busy, but I don't have time to greet you little troublemaker. "The three of them treat Xiu Tao like their own sisters. Aunt Mei has nothing to worry about.

……

"By the way, young master," Aunt Mei suddenly remembered something. "A few days ago, I saw Chuncao at the intersection of the street to the official road, and she was accompanied by a large group of people who were going to be sold, and that person seemed to be going to sell them to some 'Liyun Pavilion' in the capital. Strangely, she kept her head down at first as if to avoid me, and when she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped me, as if she wanted to say something to me, but she moved her lips and closed them again, stopped for a moment, and then the carriage of the man's teeth went away. Young master, Chuncao wears filial piety on her head, and I seem to have heard some of the people in the group with her say that she is mute. ”

Spring grass? Shu Yao was stunned. Chuncao is Cuizhu's own sister, she seemed to be a maid in Zhen Keling's yard before, and she went to the courtyard on Xitang Street to see her sister a few times, especially after Xia Linxuan's death. Yes, the day before my mother closed her eyes, Chuncao also came, and it happened that Cuizhu went to Wu Langzhong to grab medicine, and Chuncao was called to the bedside by Donnie Yen and said for a long time. Shu Yao always felt that Chuncao had a strange smell on her body (her mother said it was called fox smell), and she never liked her, so she hid in her own house.

Shu Yao suddenly thought of something, and was shocked. She has never figured out why her mother, who has always trusted Cuizhu, suddenly told her that "Cuizhu is not credible" that day, did her mother know that Cuizhu gave her medicine "ingredients"? How do you know the way? Could it be that Chuncao leaked out of her mouth while speaking, revealing something?

Thinking about it again, after Chuncao left, my mother seemed to be in a coma again.

Day 2...... Day 2...... It's been too long, Shu Yao really can't remember......

By the way, after the death of the mother, for a long time, the eldest brother regretted listening to Cuizhu's words that day and ran to find Wu Langzhong, that day the mother kept holding his hand and seemed to want to say something to him, it must be the mother who knew that he was dying, and wanted to let the three children be by his side. The eldest brother regretted this for a long time.

Shu Yao's thoughts seemed to be slowly strung together...... Suddenly, Shu Yao thought, what must my mother want to say to the eldest brother when she pulled the eldest brother? She had already begun to suspect Cuizhu at that time.

But it is inconvenient for Cuizhu to be next to her, and the spirit of the mother is no longer good......

"Yao'er, Yao'er, what's wrong with you?" Shujie patted Shu Yao lightly, and said in his heart that his sister must have remembered that she was almost sold by Cuizhu in collusion with Zhen's mansion, which frightened her sister.

Their brother and sister later learned from Liu's mother that Murong Mansion wanted to "recognize the eldest daughter" and marry a fool instead of his daughter. Shujie himself was afraid of a cold sweat, not to mention his younger sister at a young age.

Shujie said softly: "Yao'er, don't be afraid, don't think about those things anymore, with the eldest brother here, I won't let anyone bully Yao'er again." ”

Shu Yao came back to her senses and smiled at Shu Jie: "No, I'm just thinking about why the spring grass will be sold?" And what happened to the green bamboo? She didn't know if she had anything to do with the Zhen family. ”

Shuwen snorted coldly: "It's not a good thing, you deserve to die!" They are what Uncle King said, dog eats dog. ”

Shu Yao smiled slightly, her face was silent, but she was thinking in her heart: It's good for a dog to bite a dog, and the more fierce the bite, the better. In the previous life, I heard that Chuncao seemed to be a very ruthless and shrewd person, but in this life, he was sold into the building, and I don't know what it will be like? When she arrives in Beijing, she will take a look again, maybe she can help Na Chuncao.
