No, it's ......

Wei Zan looked at the fourth uncle and didn't know what to say.

"Why did Shousuke-sama suddenly care about this? Didn't he always want to appease and win over Zhennangong? ”

"You don't care about this, how the Hengzhu Wang family is has nothing to do with our family. Old Man Wang sent four children over, just in case. You can just help watch some of them, and treat them like ordinary students. ”

Fourth Uncle Wei came over this time and received the task assigned by the old man, and bought land in Ganzhou. Nominally, it is to assist in the development of the branch, but in fact, it is not to leave a way back for the family.

There are too few people in the Wei side branch of Ganzhou, and the descendants of Wei Bin and Wei Chong have not been found until now, and at present, the scale of Wei Yan's branch is less than 250 people, and it can't support a branch of a family no matter what.

Regarding the plans of the main family, Wei Zan will not ask, he is just the one in the family who focuses on studying and educating people, and the development of the family is worried by others.

"Where does the fourth uncle plan to buy land?"

"When I came, I had already discussed with the prefect of Ganzhou, between Zhangcun and Xizhen, north of Yuehe, south of Xingman, this area is selected, the initial is expected to be about 500 acres, and then see if the situation increases."

"This is a lot of land, the prefect agreed?"

"He had to." Fourth Uncle Wei sold it and didn't tell Wei Zan in detail.

Seeing that the fourth uncle didn't say anything, Wei Zan didn't ask, and turned his head and talked about Wei Jin again.

"She's about the same age, but the nephew who can match her here in Ganzhou can't pick it out. Her two sisters don't seem to be able to handle things. I wondered if I could ask my fourth aunt and my mother to choose a few good sons in their mother's house. ”

Fourth Uncle Wei pondered for a moment: "This matter is not urgent, she is only thirteen this year, and she is still a few years away from the regulations of the government." Wait until her brother is gone three years later. ”

If Dabao lives up to expectations and passes the examination, it will not be in the way for Wei Jin to be a little older. If not, he would have picked a good one in his wife's mother's house, and he would not have to worry about marrying with a heavy dowry.

The uncle and nephew talked in the room for a long time, and the fourth aunt asked people to pack the luggage they brought in the small courtyard.

"Madam, this box is full of things for Miss Jin, should you send them over now, or should you put them away for the time being?"

Mrs. Wei Si thought about it, and asked her to pick out some food bought on the road and send them to Wei Jin.

Although she has not yet seen the clever and decisive girl in her husband's mouth, she believes that her husband's vision will not be easily blinded.

These things seem to be a lot, but they are actually not valuable, and they are all commonly used by the Wei family ladies brought from the north.

Before the things were sent away, the porter came over and said that the two girls of the Wei family had come to see Madame.

"Come in." He turned his head and told the cook he had brought to make some snacks.

She cleaned up a little, and took two hairpins from her makeup for the maid to prepare.

Wei Jin came from home with her sister, and she didn't prepare too many gifts, they were all used for daily food and drink.

Wei Zan must not be missing his fourth uncle's things, but this is also the heart of her sisters, and the courtesy is light and affectionate. Besides, with the wealth of the Wei clan in the north, even if she empties her family, she can't make anything good to surprise the fourth lady.

The most valuable of these is a set of 36 colors of paint.

The pigments are packed in small porcelain jars, and there are not many of them, and there are several different shades of red, orange, red, and green.

"The other sisters don't know what to prepare. Just these paints, I made them with my sister during this time, and I have adjusted the colors and tried them, but I don't know if my wife likes them. ”

Mrs. Wei Si was also born in a scholarly family, and she has studied painting since she was a child, especially good at handwriting. Her eyes lit up when she saw this set of paints in a three-layer wooden box. didn't even care that the Wei sisters were still there, so they directly asked people to open the porcelain jar and scoop it out with a small spoon to see it.

After seeing it, the surprise was even greater, and the eyes of the Wei sisters were more loving.

Gift-giving doesn't care about more money or less money, the important thing is to poke the recipient's heart. Seeing the joy that the fourth lady couldn't hide in her eyes, Wei Jin knew that she had sent it right.

"I'm here today, and I want to ask the fourth lady for something."

"What's the matter? Don't say what you don't ask for, you should call me the fourth aunt, the elders should solve the problem for the younger generations. ”

Wei Jin smiled shyly and glanced at her sister. Sihua'er got up and opened the second thing they had brought with her sister.

"What is this?" The fourth lady got up and took a closer look, and the flat wooden box was full of one-foot-square fabric, all kinds of colors.

"The fourth aunt should have heard what Mr. Zan said about dyes, right? During this time, I tried several formulas with Ah Mei, but unfortunately none of them were satisfied. But these are the colors that we both like today, but I don't know if the nobles of the Northland also like it. Thinking that the fourth aunt was noble and knowledgeable more than our sisters, I wanted to ask the fourth aunt to give some advice. ”

As she spoke, Fourth Lady Wei had already gotten her hands on the pieces of dyed cloth one by one.

"Since you believe me, the fourth aunt will also say it directly."

The fourth lady quickly picked and ordered, and more than twenty pieces of fabric were divided into three piles by her.

"These colors are gorgeous, which is what the ladies prefer, but the color is still too heavy, and it would be better if it was fresher and more tender. These older ones, my age, will be used to make clothes, but these two colors are a little brighter, and they need to be pressed a little more. The remaining colors are too bad, except for those women in the merchant family, who may like it, those with a little status will not choose. ”

The fourth lady said more tactfully, and Wei Jin nodded directly on the side.

Although she and the fourth lady have some differences of opinion on the classification, the fourth lady's vision represents the selection criteria of the mainstream nobles, and if she wants to sell the colors she dyes, she must make some changes and guidance.

Speaking of which, the fourth lady herself likes a piece of ochre-red fabric with a little pearl, which is very suitable for making large sleeves.

Wei Jin could see the fourth lady's thoughts at a glance, and she didn't say much, she planned to go back and improve it again, and next time she would directly bring a few finished horses to her.

Because the fourth uncle Wei's family had just arrived, the fourth lady had to bother to help settle the four sons of the Wang family and the guards they brought, and there was no way to leave the Wei sisters to talk more, so they made an appointment to wait for the things to be done here, and then invite the Wei sisters to come to play.

Back at home, Sihua'er let out a little breath and patted her chest: "Third sister, that fourth lady is really beautiful, better looking than all the ladies I have ever seen, and she is so impressive, I don't dare to gasp in front of her." ”

Wei Jin twisted her sister's cheeks, which were gradually plumping, and smiled: "That's not it, do you know what kind of family the fourth lady's maiden family is?" ”

Sihua'er shook her head ignorantly, looked at the third sister and asked her to hurry up and say, don't hang people's appetites.

"The fourth lady's maiden family has produced two queens, several imperial concubines, her grandfather was the previous first minister, and her mother was the second daughter of King Yi, who was named the lord of Changping by the first emperor."

Hearing this series of words, Sihua'er's mouth couldn't close.
