After finishing business in the afternoon, I left the Song family and went home, and waited for my brother by the carriage, and sure enough, I saw two more people beside her, one older and one younger, two elders of different ages.

One is about fifteen or sixteen years old, lean but people can feel the vigorous power contained in it at a glance, like a cheetah in the night, a very dangerous feeling.

Because Zilan has space, her five senses are very keen, far beyond ordinary people, and she immediately felt that this long sui was very powerful.

And the other is still a half-old boy, a few years older than Ziyan, about ten years old, looks very calm, walks very lightly, and should also be a martial arts practitioner.

"Brother, you have a new long-term follower. Doesn't it seem to be very powerful?,Congratulations to my brother.。 ”

Ziyan glanced back and said with a smile: "Uncle and Grandpa and Third Grandpa specially selected for me, one big and one small." The big one is called Zhenjiang, the small one is called Shuichen, and the Chenxing Chen. These two are the best in their batch. What about you. ”

The two got into the car while talking.

"They also gave me two, Qiongxin and Frangipani, and I look very good, and the first impression is very good."

"I will see people's hearts for a long time, you have two more maids by your side to protect, I am also relieved, what happened last time can't happen again, fortunately, I just scratched my hand, in case I break my face, I get angry when I think of this stubble."

Ziyan also snorted when he said it.

"Next year, I'm going to manage the clan affairs and the clan's business, what about my brother, do you have any other arrangements?"

"I also want to learn clan affairs, but it's not as hard as you, the elders want me to focus on the imperial examination, and the rest of the relatives will have time to study later.

Our boys and you girls have a slightly different arrangement, after all, we are marrying daughters-in-law, not marrying people, and we will not leave home, so naturally we will follow the future of our careers first. ”

"So that's the case, then my brother should concentrate on studying, and when he is tired, he just runs errands to learn farming."

Zilan then understood that there are differences between men and women in the arrangement, girls are very young and are about to get married, so it is natural to learn first, and boys must think about the future first, and it is too late to learn financial management and general affairs slowly with a future.

"If you need anything, just talk to your brother, even if I don't have time to go, and someone else can do it for you."

Ziyan is becoming more and more mature and steady.

"Okay."

The New Year was pleasant and short, and after the fifteenth year, the second and third grandmothers gave her the ledger of one of the clan's farms and shops.

"You're also old, and I originally wanted you to be idle for a year or two, but your third grandfather said that you have a lot of ideas and abilities, and your brothers and sisters are all excellent.

He is a leading figure among the children and grandchildren of the clan, and some things must be learned early and set an example for others.

The steward will come to see you in a few days, the grange is an ancestral field, there are people from our Song family working in the farm, and there are also some tenant farmers, the shop is the public property of the clan, you take care of these two places first, and if you can make money next year, you will learn to take care of others. ”

Zilan looked at the account book in her hand and nodded calmly, "Okay, I'll go through the accounts first, and it's not too late to investigate in private and then see the steward." ”

The two grandmothers immediately smiled with satisfaction when they heard this.

In addition to studying, Zilan also has to manage the store and check the accounts, and the one who can help at present is Muxiang.

Agarwood and Rue saw it, and they worked harder than ever to learn words and arithmetic, and when they were idle in private, they had to write and draw on the ground with wooden sticks.

Whether it's practicing calligraphy or arithmetic, the sisters are learning together, and before they know it, the four third-class girls are more united and harmonious than before.

Accounting is a trivial matter for Zilan, mainly because the ledger here is textual, which looks a bit eye-catching, not as concise and clear as modern times.

But she didn't want to change it, it was better not to change everything to modern, that would be too independent and unnecessary.

During the day, I seize the time to settle accounts and deal with general affairs outside, and go into the space to study at night.

It's not very difficult to learn now, and she's not so tired after getting started, she has studied more on the history of Zizhi Tongjian, and hopes to learn more, and the future will not be too passive, after all, she only has one possibility to be the wife of an official, and these must be understood.

She doesn't need an abacus to settle accounts, she has good mental arithmetic, but Mu Xiang plans to make a very good plan, and it is basically correct to approve it for herself.

"Mu Xiang, you are so powerful, you are becoming more and more capable, study hard, and I will train you to be a steward in the future."

Zilan drew a big cake for the people below, as long as I can do it and am willing to do it, I will definitely not treat it badly.

Mu Xiang was very happy when she heard this, and hurriedly curtsied, "Thank you, Miss, the slave maid entered the mansion to serve on the first day, and my wish is to be a steward." ”

Mu Xiang's tutor is very good, my mother sent her into the house and said, being a housekeeper is the best way, dare to think crookedly without the master's hands, the old lady is the first to kill you.

Zilan also smiled happily when she heard this, "Okay, you learn to calculate accounts first, you have to learn to look at the names in the account book, and find clues from the account book." ”

"Yes, the slave and maid go through it first, and don't know how to write it down before asking the master."

"Okay, go ahead, calculate the account book of the shop, and write it down for me if something is wrong."

Zilan is also teaching Mu Xiangru and to do things more concisely and clearly.

"Yes."

Mu Xiang is calm and reliable, and she is also clever and willing to endure hardships, Zilan likes her very much and plans to rely on her in the future, and in the future, she also thinks that Xiangpu needs a female housekeeper to better deal with those ladies and ladies.

Agarwood brought a cup of red dates and wolfberry tea, "Miss, drink a glass of water." ”

"Good. Agarwood, you go and tidy up Qiong Xin and Frangipani's room, and give them a few clothes that fit, they are people who practice martial arts, and the courtyard in the corner is given to them. ”

"Miss, don't worry about this, the slave maid and the grandmother have already sorted it out, and everyone has settled down.

The new clothes will be good in the estimated day, so I went to find Sister Hongmei's clothes and changed them for them, wear them first, and then wear the new ones when they are ready. ”

"Well, you don't have to arrange for them to do chores, I have my own arrangements."

"Yes."

When the two of them enter the house, they must follow the rules, take a bath and change their clothes first, and then ask the doctor to check their bodies, and then learn the rules of the house from the grandmother for a few days, so that they can serve in front of the master.

Qiong Xin and Su Xin have learned the rules in the Song family, but when they come, they have to understand the affairs of the house.

After Mama Qi made the arrangements, she let them enter the house to serve, so that she could be close to Zilan, and her relationship would be better, and she would be more loyal.

The two of them entered the house five days later and kowtowed, "The slave Qiongxin kowtows to the master." ”

"The slave and maid Frangipani kowtowed to the master."

"Well, get up, we will be a family in the future, we will get along for a lifetime, if you need to be embarrassed to tell me, you can also talk to Mu Xiang and Mama Qi first.

My rewards and punishments are clear, meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and mistakes should be punished, if you martial arts practitioners need medicinal materials, you can also say directly, money and wealth are trivial, if you have difficulties, tell me directly, I will not shirk if I can help.

But if she is deceived and betrayed, I will not spare her easily. ”
