There is a second question, she must not be at ease when two little girls live in the same yard, so why not let that grandma go over and watch them?
It stands to reason that whether it is Changle or Xiao Yu'er, there are two grandmothers waiting for them. Especially Xiaoyu'er is a little smaller, and there are even two grandmothers around her, so she should rest assured that there are six elderly people around the two little girls. But the reality is not the case - because Changle and Xiaoyu'er learned to handle people early and be good masters, so those grandmothers are really not enough in their eyes.
What's more, Mama has been serving by their side for a few years, and their feelings have been cultivated, not to mention treating the two little girls as their own juniors, but it's almost the same. In addition, they are all clever and likable, sweet and well-behaved, and Mama was coaxed by them to be confused, I just hate that when they lift the house and tiles, they shout and cheer on the side, where can they still be restrained?
Therefore, in order to make the two little girls "behave", she had to assign one of the mothers who were used around her.
But the manpower around her is far from enough. She is accustomed to Mama Qin and Mama Li, Mama Qin is in charge of the family's affairs, and she is considered to be the head of the house; Mama Li is in charge of the precepts, teaching the maids in the inner house properly, and at the same time she is also taking care of Jinniang's treasury, which is also very busy.
She can't leave the two of them, and she doesn't worry about the rest of the grandmothers.
There's still a shortage of manpower.
The problem of manpower will be discussed later, but now we will solve the problem of the name of the hospital. Xiao Yu'er heard that her mother said that Qunfangyuan was not good, so she said, "Then change it to Qunhuayuan." ”
Jin Niang suffocated: Are you serious girl?
Changle pursed his lips and smiled, slapping Xiaoyu'er while laughing, telling her not to talk nonsense. What Qunhua Garden, more inelegant than Qunfang Garden. She said, "Why don't you still call it Shui Yunju?" This is the name of the courtyard where they lived in the capital earlier. The name of the hospital is still given by the little aunt, and they think it is very good, and it is not impossible to use it at this time.
Jin Niang waved her hand tiredly, "As long as you don't call Qunfang Yuan and Qunhua Garden, you can do the rest at will." ”
Xiao Yu'er clapped her hands happily, "Then let's call it Shui Yunju." ”
The two girls were quite satisfied, and they wanted to move in before the evening, but now they had to hurry over and watch the girls work, put them back in place, and put their salutes according to their preferences. This is a big event, and it really takes time, so the two girls don't have time to take a lunch break, so they are in a hurry to take the maids busy.
When the maids were gone, Mama Qin came out and whispered something in Jinniang's ear.
When Jin Niang heard that the group of Fang Yuan had died earlier, but it was the little girl of the Tongzhi family who was gone because of smallpox, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. However, as soon as she was excited, she asked Mama Qin, "That girl, shouldn't she be the concubine in the house?" "If the concubine in the house is gone, how can Mrs. Tongzhi still have the leisure to clean up the courtyard.
Mama Qin said, "It's still Mrs. Smart." The lost little girl was really not from Mrs. Tongzhi, but because Mrs. Tongzhi only had a pair of sons, the girl was the only girl in the house, and the girl's mother was the maid next to Mrs. Tongzhi. Then the embroidery building was given to the little girl to live in. Who knew that it was a blessing, but when he was four years old, he was gone.
Jin Niang sighed when she heard this, but it didn't feel necessary to ask her to inform Changle and Xiao Yu'er to move out of that group of Fangyuan.
Nowadays, people are taboo about the place where the dead live, and they feel that it is unlucky. But Jin Niang didn't value this, besides, the little girl didn't have it because of illness, and it wasn't because of this little building. So the problem lies with the little girl, she really doesn't need to be afraid of that little building.
Thinking about it like this, Jin Niang said, "Don't mention this matter in the future." Changle and Xiaoyu'er also tried to avoid it, so as not to let people spread some rumors and rumors. They were small, and though they weren't afraid of it, they weren't sure they would have nightmares at night. ”
Mama Qin also expected that Jin Niang would give instructions for admission, so she didn't tell the matter when she asked the two girls how the courtyard was chosen.
She answered yes and retreated, and Jin Niang was helped by Qinghe and a few people to go to the inner room to rest.
When she woke up, she found Xu Erlang sleeping on her outside. This person was flipping through a handwritten "Geographical Chronicles of Liaodong", but it was the "treasure" found earlier from that Taoist temple. Since he got this book, Xu Erlang has never left this book whenever he has time, which shows that this book is really in his eyes.
Jin Niang sat up and asked, "Why do you have time to come back for a lunch break today?" ”
Xu Erlang brought the tea cup next to her and fed her water, the water was warm, and she drank it just right. Jin Niang was indeed thirsty, so she drank most of the cup with his hand before stopping. The remaining half of the lamp, Xu Erlang drank it without looking at it, and then put the tea cup on the bedside table on the side.
"I've drunk some wine, I've got some heads, come back and rest."
As Xu Erlang spoke, he handed her the jacket of Jin Niang on the bedside and put it on. Although the earth dragon is still burning in the house, it is not as cold as before, so the earth dragon is not so hot. It's easy to catch a cold during a lunch break, and if you don't add clothes in time, it's easy to get cold.
Jin Niang approached Xu Erlang and sniffed while dressing, she didn't smell the wine, but a fresh fragrance of soaphorn came to her face, needless to say that Xu Erlang must have been afraid of smoking her, so she deliberately bathed and came back to sleep.
So how much did you drink, I don't know how to take it easy.
Xu Erlang said, "I didn't drink much, just two." It's just that the wine here is strong, and I'm not used to drinking it violently. ”
Then there is no way to do it. After all, Hezhou belongs to the border pass, and it is cold here, and the soldiers rely on drinking to keep warm. This wine is definitely stronger than the capital and even the northwest wine, which is also forced by reality.
Jin Niang was a little anxious, and after saying these two sentences to Xu Erlang, she hurriedly got out of bed to go to the convenience. Xu Erlang wanted to carry her, but Jin Niang still didn't follow. She is now less than three months pregnant, she should pay attention, but she doesn't do heavy work and is not too tired, although her body is delicate, but she is not so delicate that she needs someone to help her go to the toilet. You're too delicate, too.
Jin Niang came out conveniently, and Xu Erlang also got up and cleaned up.
When the new official took office, he had a lot of things to be busy, and every ten days and a half of a month, the affairs under his hands were not smooth. Although he will only go to the yamen office from tomorrow, he has just arrived, there are all kinds of people who visit, and there are many things to be handed over, and he is busy with his feet not touching the ground.
Xu Erlang told her to recuperate in peace, take her time for the rest of the time, and go out without worrying.
Jin Niang also has her own things to be busy with, and she can't take care of him for a while, so she simply doesn't care. She asked Mama Xu to be invited, and asked about the preferences and avoidances of the officials' daughters indoors.
This is something that was not mentioned in the morning, but it is also important. After all, there will be a banquet later, and the house must invite these ladies to the house as guests, and know their preferences in advance to do what they like, and know their avoidance, so as not to make everyone look bad.
Mama Xu also knows a lot about this, but she doesn't know much about it. This is also understandable, after all, those ladies are in the back house, and Mama Xu is not serving in front of others, how can you know the preferences of others? Then we need to send someone to continue to inquire.
When Mama Xu heard this, she took the initiative to stop this work, and she smiled sincerely and said, "Madame, leave the matter to the old slave." The old slave also made some good sisters before, and they all worked in the houses of various ladies. They are all eloquent, and it is right for the slave to ask them for information. Even if they don't know, they can ask the maids in their house, and they will definitely find out everything that the lady is interested in. ”
Mama Xu took the initiative to ask for help, and Jinniang had no reason not to agree. She directly agreed, but still instructed Mama Xu, "Be careful when doing this, don't let the master's family catch the tail." Our purpose is only to find out the dietary preferences of the ladies, and to focus on and avoid them at the banquet in the future, rather than to spy on the hidden things of the host's family. Private. Mama should remember this clearly. Otherwise, it will damage the reputation of our house, and then make people mistakenly think that we are too careless in doing things, and if we spread ugly words, I want you to ask. ”
Mama Xu's "alas" and "alas" should be, and the floating heart that was beaten by Jinniang fell back into her stomach. She went out on an errand with sincere fear, and she no longer dared to bully Jinniang when she was young, and she was negligent and negligent.
When Jinniang saw Mama Xu walking away, she asked Qingmiao, "How are the arrangements made by the two girls?" ”
Qingmiao smiled and said, "I'm still busy." The slave maid had been guarding the lady before, and she didn't go to Shuiyunju to take a look, but she still heard the little maid say that the clothes over there had been put together, and now she should be busy vacating a small study, as well as a pharmacy, a piano room or something, in short, the two girls are very busy. ”
The corners of Jin Niang's mouth twitched, Changle and Xiaoyuer made the study and pharmacy she understood, but what kind of piano room, did the two of them have music cells? Anyway, so far, she hasn't found that the two little girls have talent in this.
But the child, if you want to toss, just toss, in short, don't bother her.
Jin Niang thought so, but she didn't worry about them in the end, so she said, "Let's go over and take a look." ”
When the group arrived at Shuiyunju, they saw that there were people coming and going, going in and out.
There are maids turning over the soil, ready to plant new flowers; There are maids who are cleaning up the bedding and other things that have been dried out today; There were maids wiping the window lattices and doors outside, and there were many people carrying cabinets of different sizes......
As soon as Jin Niang passed, everyone was busy saluting, and Jin Niang asked them all to get up and hurry up with them.
At this time, Changle and Xiao Yu'er also came over when they heard the news, Xiao Yu'er was indeed cleaning up the study, and Changle was indeed cleaning up the pharmacy.
The study room is used by Changle and Xiao Yu'er together, so there are two bookcases in it, and between the two bookcases, there is a big Bogu shelf, and there is also a big cabinet on one side of the two bookcases and behind the bookcase, which is full of books by the two.
It is a bit inaccurate to say that it is full, but it is accurate to say that the books in Changle's bookcase are almost full, and Xiaoyu'er ...... I've just put out a hundred and ten copies.
She looked very empty, and there were no vases for calligraphy and paintings, nor any green plants, only a beacon hill on the bookcase, and a fish tank with a few small goldfish. In addition to these things, there is not even a symbolic inkstone on the bookcase, which shows that this girl's learning attitude is not very serious.
Oh, it's because I've been on the road for a month, and my heart is wild, and I don't have the heart to study.
Jin Niang snorted lightly in her heart, and was ready to bring up the matter of finding the teacher as soon as possible.
Master Qian, who taught earlier, stayed in the capital, but it was the time for the children to study, and they couldn't put their studies on hold just because they didn't have that master. Therefore, it is still necessary to find a teacher as soon as possible.
Yes, there is also a master who teaches the rules, and this one has to be found again.
After reading Xiao Yu'er's side, Jin Niang went to see Changle's pharmacy again.
Because of the strong taste of medicinal materials and the high requirements for the environment of drying and storage, Changle's pharmacy is not in the "embroidery building", but in the small courtyard on the left side of the embroidery building.
This small courtyard also belongs to Shuiyunju, but the area is very small. Jin Niang didn't know what kind of thoughts the original owner had, so she deliberately carved out such a courtyard in the middle of Shui Yunju, but this courtyard was convenient for Changle.
Because the lighting here is good and quiet, it is suitable for Changle Pharmaceutical and drying medicinal materials. And don't worry about the maids recklessly knocking things over, and don't worry about the smell of medicine being too rushed, so that no one can adapt to it, but it is very suitable.
Jin Niang looked at it with big eyes, and saw that a lot of medicinal materials had been dried in the courtyard. This is all the inventory that Changle brought from Beijing, which has already been dried, but it has not had time to develop it. And because of the cold climate and cold weather in Liaodong, Changle was worried about the resurgence of medicinal materials, so he specially took advantage of the fact that the sun was still good today, and hurried to bask in the sun.
Jin Niang went into the pharmacy again and looked at it, and saw that it was empty, and there was nothing else except a bookcase.
Jin Niang said, "Go back and ask someone to bring you a few cabinets, which is the cabinet you use at home that specializes in putting medicinal materials." ”
Changle smiled and nodded, "Even if Auntie doesn't say it, I'm going to talk to you about it at night." I'd also like to buy some small pill bottles for pills. I need a lot of bottles, can my aunt find someone to help me burn a batch? ”
This is not a difficult matter, nowadays people are elegant, and there are many kilns, so whoever wants to make something distinctive, can go to the kiln to discuss with the kiln burner. It doesn't matter what kind of porcelain it is, as long as you can afford the price, there is no business that people will not take.
Jin Niang responded quickly, and Changle said again, "There are all kinds of pharmaceutical utensils, there are no here, I have to go to the street to buy some." Auntie, I want to go around the street tomorrow and buy some of the things I need, can you? ”
Jin Niang said in her heart: Okay, okay, okay. As long as you are doing the right thing, I have nothing to disagree with. But she couldn't really say that, or the little girl would think she was perfunctory.
Jin Niang thought about it for a moment and said, "It's not impossible." However, we are new to the city, and we are all blind to the personnel in Hezhou. I'm also worried about you going out rashly, so let your grandmother follow you tomorrow, and I'll let your second uncle find two guards to accompany you. Do you think it's possible? ”
