Xi'er pulled Peaches and excitedly walked around the new house in front of her.

It is said that this house was built by a man from Anqing Mansion in combination with the characteristics of the north and south, and it has been more than ten years.

The gray tiles and white walls and tall door frames, even the threshold are made of stone strips, and the seemingly simple gatehouse, looking up, the simple and generous carvings are presented on the top of the head. When I entered the house, there were ordinary wings on the left and right sides. Among the halls, there is a stone wall of carved bamboo forest erected on the ground, there is an empty fish tank in front of the stone wall, turn the stone wall, the small three halls, and the main house compound is behind the hall. There are five upper rooms on the front, three wings on the verandahs on both sides, and rows of big red lanterns hanging under the beams, which looks very festive.

Lin Mei is most satisfied, there is a small courtyard behind the east wing, the small courtyard is not big, the west of the small courtyard, there are a few pomegranate trees, the south, a few bamboo poles to build a shelf, and a few flowers and vines and dead branches, it looks a little desolate, but it does not affect Lin Mei's love for it, and even thinks about transplanting some grape seeds in the spring, and it must be very pleasant to sit under the grape trees and drink tea at that time.

"Eldest sister, eldest sister, will we live here in the future?" Momoko asked excitedly.

Shanzi walked over and pinched her nose and quipped: "That's not good, I have to move back for the New Year, Xiao Hei is still waiting at home." ”

"Ah~" Peaches immediately made a bitter little face, pursed her mouth, and leaned aggrievedly against Lin Mei and said, "Sister, I... I like it here, don't you move in? ”

Shanzi laughed out loud, and Lin Mei glared at him several times.

said to Peach: "Since Peaches likes it, then let's not move, are you happy, let's go, let's go see your room first." ”

Peaches immediately burst into tears and laughed, made a grimace at Shanzi, and obediently followed the eldest sister to see the room.

Xi'er and Peaches are both older, and it is not suitable to squeeze a room with Lin Mei, anyway, there are many rooms, so I simply chose three rooms in the east wing, just one room for three sisters.

Sooner or later, this family will be handed over to Shanzi, so Shanzi and Daddy Lin live on the left and right sides of the main house respectively, and the hall in the middle is still hung with the plaque of Furong Hall.

Xi'er was sensible, and after shopping around the house with Peach, she packed her luggage with Xu Dangjia, and when she saw the eldest sister and the younger sister, she hurriedly greeted: "Eldest sister, come and see, this bag of clothes is yours, you see that it is appropriate for you to put it, Aunt Xu said to put the first room, I think the second room is good." ”

Lin Mei smiled silently, took her two sisters by her hands, and walked into the second room of the east wing.

This house was carefully arranged by the original owner, with a round table of wenge wood and an openwork ottoman. The Luohan bed by the window is simple and generous. Placed horizontally on the left side of the four screens, a picture of peaches blooming on the screen paper is painted, blocking the indoor scene, and pink veils are hung on the left and right sides. Bypassing the screen, there is a yellow pear bed with a door enclosure in the inner room, and on the right side of the bed is placed a large black cabinet, and a makeup bride with a bronze mirror is placed by the window.

There is a small room on the right side of the bed, which looks like a place to change clothes and bathe, and Lin Mei bought a wooden barrel and toilet in advance and placed it inside.

Compared with the old mansion before, this house is full of wealth.

"Master Xu, please bring in the luggage of Peaches and Xi'er." Lin Mei shouted outside the house.

Xi'er was stunned for a moment, and said in a panic: "It's not good for the eldest sister to be like this, you are the eldest sister, and you should live in the best room." ”

Momoko nodded stupidly.

Lin Mei sat on the Luohan bed and hugged the two younger sisters into her arms, and said with relief: "Women should be pampered before they get married, our family didn't have that condition before, but now that we have this condition, we naturally give the two sisters the best, originally thought that our three sisters would have one room, but Peaches is young, I'm afraid she will be scared at night, is Xi'er willing to take care of the younger sister for the eldest sister?" ”

When asked like this, Xi'er was embarrassed, and said with a red face: "I am an older sister, and I should take care of my little sister." ”

Lin Mei looked down at Xi'er, thought for a while, and said: "You two remember, from today on, you are the young lady master of this family, you want to take out the young lady's style, and I will find two little girls for the two of you to serve when you go back, on weekdays, you can read more books and practice calligraphy if you have nothing to do, Xi'er took the time to practice embroidery with peaches, last time I heard Lin Feng's cousin say, I helped you two find an embroidery master, and you are already on the way here, go back and learn from others, you know?" ”

With the assurance of the two girls, Lin Mei asked the two of them to decorate the boudoir by themselves, and turned around and went to their own room.

The first room in the east wing was a bit monotonous, Lin Mei guessed that this was supposed to be the bedroom of the son's son before, but fortunately, there were beds, cabinets, tables, and chairs, all of which were made of willow black lacquer, and there was also a willow bookcase and willow circle chair by the window on the left side. Lin Mei fell in love with this room at first sight, there was a fly in the ointment, this room did not have an independent dressing and bathing room. But fortunately, Lin Mei doesn't care, there are no shower showers in this world, they are all oval wooden barrels for bathing, and they go to the toilet in the toilet.

When Lin Mei bought quilts before, she bought six sets of large wooden barrels and toilets for bathing and placed them in each room.

The clean quilts are all put in the cabinet, just take them out and spread them on the bed, the cold of winter, the house has not had time to burn charcoal, Lin Mei's frozen limbs are stiff, and she can't care about tidying up the room, so she went to the Furong Hall.

Father Lin sat in the hibiscus hall to help Xu Rongsheng burn charcoal in the brazier, and Lin Shan took Luo Sicheng and the others to nowhere they went.

When Daddy Lin saw his eldest daughter coming in, he kept chatting his hands, and greeted him distressedly: "Meizi, come and roast, look at your frozen, don't get sick when you turn around." ”

"I don't feel cold in front of the stove on weekdays, but now I feel very cold." Lin Mei walked towards the brazier as she spoke, stretched out her hand to roast, and felt much more comfortable.

"According to me, this family should not be moved, how nice it is at home, sitting on the kang every day, and the brazier is still burning in the house, and I don't feel cold at all." Daddy Lin complained.

"I see, you can't bear your five pigs and those twenty **." Lin Mei still hasn't forgotten the first time she went back to mention the move, and Daddy Lin was talking about what to do with the pigs and chickens he raised.

Lin Mei had already thought about it, and it was not a way for the old house to be empty, and it would be abandoned after a long time, so she hired the Gu family and his wife to take care of the house and the family's livestock. Such an errand is too difficult to find, close to home, and it doesn't take much time, mainly three meals a day of feeding, and the feeding feed doesn't need to be extra to get, Xu Rongsheng will send bean dregs every afternoon, and he needs someone to live in the Lin family at night, pay attention to the beasts and don't harm the livestock, the key is five dollars of silver per month, which makes the Gu family happily agreed.

"Then you can also find me a job to do, idle all day, I'm afraid that something will go wrong at home." Since Xu Rong got sick, he robbed him of his job, and no one chatted with him, so he was idle all day long, so he raised twenty chickens.

Lin Mei shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Okay, I plan to cooperate with the farmers in the village to breed in the spring, and when the time comes, you will be responsible." ”
