At the banquet in the backyard of Rongguo Mansion, the girls sat alone at a table, staggered and very lively.

Daiyu and Baochai and Xichun talked and laughed, Tanchun and Baoqin and the Wang sisters discussed the anthology, Xiangyun, drank with Baochai for a while, and fought with Tanchun for a while, the whole person was very energetic, except for ignoring Daiyu, he didn't say anything bad.

After a while, the three of them talked about family matters. Daiyu listened attentively for a while, and then asked Xichun: "How does it sound, now it is Miss Shi and the third sister who are housekeepers together?"

Xichun pouted and said, "Sister-in-law is sick." said that it was careless during the New Year, and the wind was cold, so I had to recuperate for a while. The old ancestor said, let the third sister take care of the house, and said that Sister Yun is also older, and she will start to learn the housekeeper director, take advantage of this, and learn together. The second wife had nothing to do, but she just asked one of Zhou Rui's family to accompany her, saying that the third sister and Sister Yun didn't do much work, and she helped take care of them together, and they were careful everywhere. ”

When Daiyu heard this, she smiled dumbly.

Xichun said quietly: "Some time ago, the second wife also entrusted Sister Bao to help, but Sister Bao helped for a few days, so she quit and went home. ”

Baochai smiled: "Aunt entrusted, I will definitely help for a few days, but my family is also busy, and I am very unavailable, so I can only help for a few days." ”

Daiyu said with a smile: "When my sister-in-law enters the door, you have to take care of the housekeeper to the end, and I can be lazy." ”

Baochai's face turned red, and he forcibly said with shame: "Wait for my housekeeper, the first thing is to deduct your monthly rule, so that you don't have to laugh at me." ”

"Hahaha......"

The sisters burst into laughter.

Tanchun's eyes swept over, and the eye waves moved slightly, and then returned to normal.

Xiangyun finished punching with the Wang sisters at this time, and her ears were sharp, so she asked, "Sister Bao and Fourth Sister, what are you talking about, laughing so happily?

Baochai said with a smile: "I'm talking about the Western paintings that the fourth sister painted before, and I learned to look like it, but unfortunately the proportion of light is always wrong. ”

Xichun muttered: "That's too difficult, what formulas, what squares, what cubes, what units, so many, where do I understand......." ”

Daiyu said: "It's just that if you memorize more, you're just lazy." ”

Xichun said: "I really don't understand-"

Daiyu ignored her and only drank tea. Baoqin came over and interjected and smiled: "That's really too difficult, I followed the study for a few days, I was dizzy, and I gave up with a bunch of sparrows in my head for several days." The county lord is really powerful, he understands all this. ”

Daiyu smiled: "I'm just learning it since I was a child, so I'm more familiar with it than you." ”

Xichun said: "Sister Lin, you have been learning since you were a child?"

Daiyu nodded and said, "Part of it was taught by my brother." Later, when my brother went out, he found overseas missionaries as teachers, and they taught. ”

Baoqin said: "Hey, there is more than one person?"

Daiyu said: "There are many kinds of things, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, art, music, machines, astronomy, geography, plants, animals, etc., all inclusive. ”

Xichun said with a bitter face: "I just learned geometry and physics, and I had a headache and half died, and there are so many kinds, when Cousin Lin comes back, you won't want me to learn them all, right?"

Daiyu said: "You are the female official of the county lord, and you must learn at least three kinds of geometry, physics and chemistry. You think you can escape."

Xichun lay on the table and pretended to be dead: "County Lord, the lower official is sick, very sick, and he can't get up." ”

Daiyu pushed her funny and said, "The female official of the county lord is sick, how can this happen? When I go back, I will ask Jinyiwei to send someone to treat you!!"

Xichun hurriedly jumped up: "Sister Lin, I'm fine, Jinyiwei will treat me, I can't afford this blessing." ”

Daiyu smiled: "Nonsense again, Jinyiwei is the public servant of the people of the capital, and he is the most gentle, how can you not stand it?"

Not only did this pity the spring, but the girls present all pouted at the same time: even if Jinyiwei was cleaned up by Lin Dutang, no one would think that they were gentle, and Lin Dutang's delicate sister would feel that Jinyiwei was gentle.

Bao Qin grinned, then pushed Xiangyun and said, "Sister Yun, weren't you talking about the pros and cons just now?"

Tanchun said: "We discussed and wanted to put some wasteful things in the house away. For example, we don't dare to use the money we buy in the house, and we buy it again with money from our own house. ”

He also said: "Then there is our garden, I gossip with other girls, and I heard that a lotus leaf and a broken grass root are valuable." I thought about finding a few honest and knowledgeable old mothers from the garden to manage, first, to save cleaning costs, second, the garden is specially managed, third, things will not be wasted, and fourth, it is also the meaning of subsidy, and the old mothers can take advantage of this to make up for a little. Sister Zhou Rui and sister-in-law also agreed with this method, but Sister Yun put forward some more opinions. ”

Everyone was busy asking what they wanted.

Xiangyun glanced at Daiyu and said, "I pondered, the people who were selected were happy, but the people who were not selected couldn't help but complain, and they also took care of the garden every day, carrying the sedan chair, supporting the boat, and pulling the ice bed, all of which had to be done, and they were also taken care of in the garden day and night." It is better to let those who are chosen to collect a few dollars from the year's income of the garden and distribute it to them, which can be regarded as their labor expenses. ”

When Daiyu heard this, she frowned and didn't say anything.

Xichun thought about it, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why, so he didn't speak.

Bao Qin and the others saw that everyone stopped talking, so naturally they didn't talk anymore.

Xiangyun said casually: "If it weren't for the old lady personally asking me three or five times, I shouldn't have been in charge of nosy." It's just that since the old lady trusts each other, I should do my best, otherwise how can I have the face to see her? Therefore, I have planned this benefit for everyone, which also means that they will work together, and they will not eat and gamble arbitrarily in the future, and we will be careful and cautious in the garden, and we will live with peace of mind. ”

Tanchun smiled and said, "Sister Yun is thoughtful and has thought of a lot of things for me that I didn't expect, so I naturally have no objections." ”

Xiangyun looked graceful and good-natured, and said with a smile: "So we have agreed, today is the big day for the second sister and sister Xing, and other details are not easy to discuss, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Tanchun nodded, but he didn't say a word.

Bao Qin hurriedly said: "It's tasteless to sit down, let's do the wine order." ”

Baochai naturally echoed, everyone said one by one, one sentence after another, Baoqin went to pull Tanchun again, Baochai went to pull Xiangyun, also called Daiyu, and soon washed away the embarrassment in front.

When Daiyu returned home and talked about it with Mama Rong, she sighed: "There are many slaves in the house, and they are intertwined, and the third sister's method is good, but it is easy to benefit a small number of people, and it is inevitable that they will fall into eccentric complaints; I looked at it coldly, I'm afraid this method won't last long. ”

Mama Rong shook her head and said, "The third girl is ambitious and wants to make a career, but she was splashed with cold water by Miss Shi like this, I am afraid that she seems to be cold-hearted." ”

Daiyu said: "She is originally from the Jia family, and she is very worried about the family. And she is shrewd by nature, and she has a plan in her heart, Su Ri has seen a lot of drawbacks, but she is a girl, it is not easy to say and manage, now that she has this opportunity, she is wronged, and she also wants to do something for Nafu. ”

Rong Mama said: "It is worthy of being the third girl, no wonder the uncle and the girl also praise it on weekdays." ”

Hearing Mama Rong mention her brother, Daiyu couldn't help frowning, and couldn't help but worry in her heart, but she forced a smile in her mouth, "If my brother comes back and hears that his sweetheart has been wronged in his own family, I'm afraid he will be very unhappy." ”

Rong Mama smiled and said: "Uncle will only be happy, because the third girl is wronged in order to revitalize the family, there is a mother-in-law pressing, there are many mothers-in-law making trouble, and there is a sister-in-law in the back, in this situation, they all have some ambitions, thinking of finding a way, this is a heroine! Uncle loves such a person!"

Daiyu's face was red when she said this, but she nodded seriously.

It's just that at this moment, what is my brother doing in the Western Regions?
