Chapter 39: Greed for Wealth (Part I)

Moving is a physical job, and Su Yang'er and other female dependents are not of much use.

When Lao Wang returned to the courtyard with peace of mind, he sent someone to bring four chairs from the car, and settled the four female dependents, including Yue's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, to sit down in the courtyard, and then checked the rooms one by one, after all, the house has been abandoned for nearly 20 years, and he doesn't know if there is any damage, and the most important thing at the moment is to find out the hidden dangers.

The layout of Su's ancestral house is almost the same as that of Tangyin Su Mansion, including the warehouse and kitchen, there are a total of 9 houses, of which the main house is behind the living room, the east and west three wings are one in the west, three in the east, and two in the north and south; The main house is where the head of the family lives, and there are rules everywhere in the life of a large family, after Su's father died, there was no one to live there, not even Su Yang'er.

Because Su Yang'er is a woman, she only uses a box as the master, and she can only wait for one day when she recruits a son-in-law, and the Su family has a male master again, so that she can move into the main house with her husband.

After a long time, Lao Wang's hometown revisited, and when he entered and exited this mottled old house, he inevitably touched the scene, as if he saw the scene of himself and Su's father playing here again when he was a child.

Back then, Su's father was a famous handsome young man, otherwise he would not have given birth to a daughter like Su Yang'er who was scolded for causing trouble, speaking of which, when Su's father was raised in the middle of the house, there was still an interesting story because of his handsome appearance.

There is also a person who is equivalent to Su's father's Jingyi article, on the day of the opening of the exam, the examiner is difficult to distinguish, so he called Su's father and the two to come, without looking at the conversation, and not asking about their background, just to see how these two people look, at first sight, Su's father was admitted.

This is an interesting and unwritten rule of the imperial examination in ancient times, from the top of the list to the end of the list, where there is an article that is difficult to compare, then spell "appearance", who is more outstanding in appearance, who wins; It is to judge people by their appearance, which has existed since ancient times, and it is more superficial than the interviews of later generations.

As for Su's mother, she is just an ordinary peasant girl, with a docile personality, died in childbirth, and gave birth to Su Yang'er in exchange for her life, the old servant has a deep impression of her, Mrs. Su is not beautiful, nor is she ugly, she treats people gently, Su Yang'er's personality is very similar to her in the past, but now she is like two people.

The past came to his heart at dawn and twilight, and the old servant had mixed feelings in his heart, only to feel as if he was in a different world.

Unlike the old man who was full of sad memories, Su Yang'er, who was sitting in the courtyard, was full of pride and pride.

"But it's terrible for me, pinch my waist!"

At this time, she beat her slender waist with her little hand because of the bumps and soreness all the way, looking at the busy people in the courtyard, the pride before the departure came to her heart, she knew that her small family had now completely escaped the catastrophe not long after.

And the similarity between the layout of this ancestral house and Tangyin Su Mansion can be regarded as an unexpected joy, after all, Xiaoling said that she was homesick on the road, so this new home, which is the same, must also be a comfort to her.

"After a year and a half, Lao Wang and these people will definitely be amazed by my clever calculations, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil, maybe they will worship me as a half-immortal!"

It is true that for the old man, returning to his hometown is a revisit, but for her it is a new life.

Because in the previous days, she had just been adapting to being a woman, and she wasn't even sure if she could accept such a lifestyle, and once considered that if she couldn't adapt, she would commit suicide to thank the sky for giving her a chance to be reborn.

But now it's different, not only did she lead the Su family to successfully complete the escape plan and avoid the suffering of war in the foreseeable future, but also found that it was not a big deal to become a woman, as long as she didn't delay eating, drinking and having fun, it was still acceptable.

"In addition to these stinky rules, there are idiots like Lu Jingyuan's buddy, and there is nothing wrong with it, but these are all man-made, and there is always a solution."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile, and it was time to try to break through these constraints.

At this time, Lao Wang came over and said: "Little lady, the house can still live, that is, there is a roof tile in the east chamber that is damaged, you have to make up for it, you don't go there these days, and the hometown is not better than Tangyin, there is no bathroom here, you are wronged at night, use the bath bucket to bathe, and the old slave will take them out to buy the things that should be used later." ”

Su Yang'er nodded casually when she heard this, she gradually liked this kind of eldest lady life who had someone to do everything, but when she heard that Lao Wang was going to take someone out to purchase, she couldn't help but beg: "Uncle, can I go out with you?" ”

She couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south in the carriage, and naturally wanted to go out and take a closer look at it at this time, after all, Yixing was the place where she planned to grow old all her life, and she also knew that she still had a lot to learn, and understanding prices was only the first step, she had to determine what she was in in this era, nothing.

Otherwise, she will make a lot of common-sense mistakes, and her inherent impression has been subverted many times along the way, whether it is the geographical environment, the cultural environment or the living customs, they are completely different from what she imagined.

But Lao Wang shook his head categorically, and said: "Little lady, you should stay at home first, the old slave really can't take care of you, and when you settle down, if you want to go out, the old slave will take you out again?" ”

Su Yang'er was dumbfounded when she heard this, and it was rare that she didn't embarrass him anymore, because she was very tired from the old man's tone, and couldn't help but think to herself: "This old man is not easy, I won't bully him in the past two days." ”

Thinking of this, Su Yang'er still nodded.

Seeing that this little ancestor was finally willing to open up, Lao Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There is one more thing, that is, Xiao Er begged you to temporarily borrow a house to settle his family. ”

When Su Yang'er heard this, she quietly glanced at her mother-in-law's family who were sitting not far away, and thought: "Good people do it to the end, send the Buddha to the west, and bring thousands of miles of travel, and I don't care about this day or two." ”

Although she was a little afraid of her eccentric mother-in-law, she agreed, "Okay." ”

At present, there are a total of 16 people in Su Mansion, including the mother-in-law's family, these Su Yang'er have carefully calculated, 8 of them sleep in Tongpu, and they still live in the north and south rooms, Lao Wang has a single room in the east chamber, Xiaoling is naturally one with herself, two empty rooms in the east chamber, the mother-in-law's family occupies one, and Yangbao and Xiao Er occupy one.

In this way, 7 houses are just enough, but Yang Bao did not live in the house before, he and Xiao Er are not subordinates, just long-term workers, except for cooking three meals, they don't care, and they will return home after work.

Now that Yang Bao also lives in the mansion, it will undoubtedly make him and Xiaoling more intimate, which is reluctant for Su Yang'er, who is still a little eccentric and "possessive".

But at this time, everyone was new to the city, and she could only make such an arrangement.

At that moment, she and Lao Wang had arranged it properly, but Lao Wang was secretly surprised while listening, he didn't know when Su Yang'er was so concerned about these trivial things in daily life.

After the arrangement, Su Yang'er felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in her heart, after all, for her, whether in her previous life or this life, it is a great thing to be able to lead a large family of more than a dozen people to take refuge in disasters and live and work in peace and contentment.

But Lao Wang's words before leaving suddenly made her good mood fall to the bottom.

"Little lady, this time back to the hometown, there are 526 pieces on the road, these entrances and exits, the old slave has all been recorded in the account, when it is cleaned up in the evening, I will go to the treasury again to count again, you rest here, Uncle took them out first."

After Lao Wang finished speaking, he took people away, he just reported the discrepancies to Su Yang'er, the nominal head of the family, as usual, so that she knew in her heart, Su Yang'er would not pay attention to these things in the past.

But he categorically didn't expect that his inadvertent words would fall into Su Yang'er's ears like a thunderbolt from the sky!
