Although Yue'er and Pan'er kept it again and again, Yang Dou'er was worried about the affairs of the family, and left after sitting for a long time.

When she returned to her yard on the edge of Yanyan Town in the west of the city, the sky was already numb, and there were small snowflakes floating in the sky.

This is the family business that she and Nakayama bought after the winter solstice. Before that, she had been renting half a small courtyard in the city for a while. The new home is less than three miles away from the wild goose. Zhuangzi is small, except for the four tenants in the family, there are only six other households. The cultivated land is not as much as Yue'er said. She wants to buy more than a dozen acres of land outside Yanzhou City, but the question is where does the family have so much money? In order to buy the dilapidated small Zhuangzi and more than 40 acres of sloping land, she used almost all the valuable things in the family, and borrowed some money from someone, so that she could buy this family business. That is, because the little money saved was exhausted, so some time ago, even the village could not be renovated. Fortunately, with the help of the Xuntian Guan family in Yanyan Town, I was busy for several days, and I was barely able to live there.

Originally, she shouldn't have moved in until the village was reorganized. But she loved this new home so much that she couldn't help but come over! In her opinion, home should be like this: there must be several rooms, trees, and land of their own! She had everything she wanted here, and there was an acre of prime land allocated by the official on the river beach. That's her man's Xuntian!

Every time she thought of that acre of Xuntian, a sense of pride surged in her heart. This is the family business that her man earned with his life! This is the first foundation of the Sun family in Yanshan, and it is also the most solid foundation! Whether it is the half-built blue brick gatehouse or the fierce beast head stone drum on the stone steps outside the gate, it makes her full of confidence. Look at this gatehouse, look at this stone drum, and then look at the wall with the blue brick hat, everyone knows that behind the courtyard wall is a Xuntian family; Even the old soldiers, who occasionally took a shortcut and hurried back to the barracks, did not dare to make a loud noise when they saw this stone drum. Even the tenants and a few yeoman farmers in the village and the people from other villages spoke in a loud voice, and they boasted of being from Sunjiazhuang; And this title has also been recognized by others.

With a happy vision for the future of Xuntian's old grandson's family, she stepped off the carriage like a female general. It's a pity that it's getting late, and the Zhuang people have already eaten the night dinner and rested on the kang, and no one next to them has come to look up at the noble appearance of the "old lady" of the Xuntian Sun family, only a maid she stayed at home led the old porter to greet her at the bottom of the steps.

The deserted scene made her realize that everything in this home was still in its infancy. Not to mention, there are few servants, except for the porter and the coachman, who have long been there, only the two maids who followed her in Yixian. It's time to hire some people at home. But this is not a problem, the main purpose of her entering the city today is to hire a housekeeper and a tent through the tooth shop, and when they come, she can help herself come up with some ideas to see how to do the housework better.

She soon heard from the maid who had stayed at home that the old man had returned before noon.

She instructed the two maids to bring the one hundred thousand copper coins borrowed from Yue'er into the house, and she stomped the soil on her feet under the dripping eaves, and then entered the upper room.

Zhongshan was lying on the kang table writing, there were several pages of paper spread out on the table, and there were several files and official documents on the kang. She said, "You're busy, I'll do it myself." ”

Nakayama didn't move. He stretched out his pen and skimmed the ink in the inkstone, and said with a smile: "I estimate that the young lady and the eldest lady will leave you for a night." How did you come back? ”

Dou'er took off the fox fur head pocket and the fur coat, took it outside the house and shook it, returned to the house and sat on the edge of the kang with his legs on his legs, took a dry towel and dipped the water droplets left on the hat and coat, and said, "They let me keep it." I don't want to stay ......."

Nakayama smiled. He knew his mother-in-law's thoughts, and all she was thinking about was how to make the Sun family become a big family. At this point, the two of them have the same heart. However, if you really want to make this tree big and deep-rooted, she will definitely not be able to lead the two maids alone; Even if you add a few more people to your family, you can't do it...... He didn't speak, but lowered his head and continued to write.

Dou'er turned the oil lamp brighter and looked at her husband affectionately, and when Zhongshan stopped writing thoughtfully, she asked, "Didn't you say that you won't come back until the end of the year, why are you going back?" It's only been a few days......"

"Come back and do something."

Dou'er has long been accustomed to her husband's vague words. But when it comes to military affairs, he usually doesn't go into too much detail. She wiped the water stains off her coat and carefully put them away.

At this time, two maids came in with a large bag. Looking at their struggling appearances, Nakayama knew what was in his pocket. He frowned and asked, "You went to borrow money from Miss Yue'er again?" ”

"Hmm." Dou'er nodded, went over to open the cash cabinet, and helped the two maids lift their pockets, and the sound of copper coins colliding echoed in the room for a long time before stopping.

“…… How much did you borrow this time? ”

Dou'er shook her pocket vigorously, shook out the last two small coins in her pocket, closed the cabinet and locked it, and then clapped her hands and said, "One hundred thousand." I asked, we can buy that slope in our field for only sixty-five strokes......"

Zhongshan glared at his mother-in-law, and said for a long time, "What are you buying that slope for?" The slope is full of stones, and there is no soil to keep and crops to grow! It doesn't work to plant trees. ”

"If you don't plant, you can't do it! Whatever! Dou'er locked the key of the cash drawer into her jewelry box, turned around and said proudly, "As long as its surname is Sun!" ”

Nakayama smacked his lips and swallowed back the foul words that came to his lips. Don't argue with your mother-in-law at this time, no matter how stupid things are, she always has hundreds of good reasons; This is the biggest and most profound lesson he has learned since he got married. He shook his head helplessly and reminded, "We have borrowed a lot of money from the general now......

"It's only over 400 times. Not much ......"

Nakayama swallowed. Four hundred is not much, his monthly money, Lu money, Jin money, job money, and material money...... All the subsidies are also 40 and 470 Wen, and they can be repaid after a year or two of hard work. The problem is that he takes a month's salary and a half to buy a stone slope that can be used for everything, and no matter how he calculates, he thinks it is a loss-making business......

He waved his hand vigorously and drove away the smoke wafting in. Forget it, the mother-in-law can't admit death and reason for the immortals! The business at hand was not done, and he didn't bother to reason with her now. He put down his pen, poured some water into the inkstone, picked up the ink ingot, studied the ink, and said, "You go to eat first." I brought back two bags of fine noodles and asked Xiaoqing to steam a drawer of jujube buns......"

When he heard that he had his favorite food, Dou'er immediately became happy. She asked the man with concern, "You don't eat with us?" ”

"I ate it before you came back." Nakayama said, "Go eat it." I'm done with this document. And one last point. After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to think about some of the problems encountered in the formation and training of the cavalry brigade.
