Chapter 513: Planning
After listening to this, Chrysanthemum understood in her heart, and when she saw that Aunt Gao wanted to come up and talk to her, she didn't look at her, but only said to Cao's family: "Brother and sister, although we are meeting for the first time today, but I am both the master and the sister-in-law, so I will take the big one, and I will ask my younger brothers and sisters to help me in this matter." ”
Cao hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, please say something, my sister is all obedient." ”
Chrysanthemum said with a smile: "Then let's go to the back first, and we'll talk about it when we get there." ”
So, the group went from the east courtyard to the backyard.
On the way, Aunt Gao rushed to Chrysanthemum's side and laughed crisply: "Sister-in-law, Xiang'er is also ......"
"Sister Gao, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later." This is Cao's voice.
"Aunt Gao, it's not a big deal for the girls to fight for a few words, and it's worth it for you to come and tell me? In private, my aunt will teach her well. "These are the words of Chrysanthemum.
Aunt Gao was stunned, why did she let her discipline the girl without asking the reason?
When she came to the Sanjin courtyard, Chrysanthemum asked the Cao family to gather all the subordinates, and she asked, "Who is the uncle's housekeeper?" ”
Zhang Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The villain Zhang Cheng, promoted by the second master, is in charge of the outer courtyard for the second master." ”
Chrysanthemum nodded, and asked the Cao family again, who is the housekeeper of the inner courtyard.
Cao summoned Mama Wang and pointed it out to her.
Chrysanthemum nodded, walked a few steps towards the group of people, and said, "Uncle just came back today, and there are few people at home, so it is inevitable that he will be a little busy." Now let's set a rule: In the future, if you have anything, whether it is the inner courtyard or the outer courtyard, just like in the uncle's house, it will be managed by Zhang Cheng and Wang Mama. Zhang Cheng and Mama Wang settled the matter and solved it with yellow wheat and grapes. You don't have to look for yellow wheat, she looks for green wheat, some people look for cherries, some people look for grapes. It's a mess, it's not a look. Can Zhang Cheng and Mama Wang hear me? From now on, Grape and Wheat, who only recognize the two of you, will not be able to turn a blind eye to the others. If anyone complains that we are not sincere in our hospitality, and that Grape and Yellow Wheat have not been mentioned by either of you, don't blame me for asking my uncle and brother and sister to punish you. ”
The two men listened with awe-inspiring hearts. Hurriedly bowed down.
Chrysanthemum glanced at the incense. Seeing that she looked angry, she sneered: "The Zhang family was originally from a poor family. Uncle has been cold for ten years before he has earned fame. Now they have traveled thousands of miles to go home, and the mother and son are reunited. Talk about your family. The rest are not taken to heart. You are used to serving your uncle and younger siblings, if you feel that this rural place is cold and things are not easy to use, please take care of it more. ”
Xiang'er saw that her face was covered with frost. I couldn't help but shudder and lowered my head. The other two maids didn't dare to say anything.
Cao Shi was ashamed and angry, and stepped forward and shouted: "Who allows you dogs to look down on people? Where the old lady and the old lady live, you are picky. Besides, such a garden, such a layout, I'm afraid that the capital can't pick out a few, our house in the capital, not enough to be half the size, now here to act as a slave, it's really ridiculous! Zhang Cheng, if there is such a thing again, he will beat her first and then sell her. "Pure Text"
Zhang Cheng hurriedly responded loudly.
Aunt Gao was not angry and wanted to step forward to defend with Chrysanthemum, but was glared at by Cao's fiercely, so she had to endure it. Secretly weighing the chrysanthemum in his heart, he muttered again, it looks rich, that is, it is just an empty shelf, there is not even a slave to call, and the things in the house are either wooden or bamboo, and there is no gold, silver and jade.
When the others dispersed, the green wheat and the cherries also returned to their respective places.
Chrysanthemum said to the two: "It's okay for you to be enthusiastic, but don't forget your own duty." What they are looking for, what they are taking, take them and let them do it themselves. So many people, but turn around the group you call, they have no hands or no feet? ”
Cherry and Qingmai nodded red-faced, and Chrysanthemum asked Qingmai to call his mother back, waiting for someone to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
Cao Shi and the others went back to the room to rest, and asked about what happened just now, and Lan'er told her in detail.
Mama Wang said disdainfully: "Is there anything that is not smooth? I thought that this place lady must be very satisfied, elegant and chic. Miss didn't see it, the back garden is planted with fruit trees, around the courtyard wall is a bamboo forest, and there is a large vegetable garden, there are a lot of vegetables in it! It does not have the air of wealth and luxury, nor does it raise some exotic flowers and plants to pretend to be elegant, just like a farmer's life. If our master comes, he may like it very much, and maybe he will make a few poems. The most favorite is the water, from the mountain with bamboo, even the kitchen, clean room are connected to water, no need to carry water. Isn't that convenient? I think that those people have eyes on the top of their heads, thinking that they are from the capital, so they look down on the countrymen, thinking that they are easy to bully. ”
Lan'er said with a grin: "But it's a sight." That grape, said Xiang'er well, didn't beat around the bush at all, and said straight up. ”
Cao Shi said with a cold face: "Mama should be stricter." They just mess around, and it's me who is ashamed. It's time for my in-laws and eldest brother and sister-in-law to think about it, saying that I can't even control my subordinates, and my aunts can't control it. Even if the old man heard it, I'm afraid he will blame me. fined Xiang'er for a month's monthly money. Whether it's asking for something or asking for something, who would have allowed her to say those prickly words? And then get out of it. ”
Mama Wang nodded in response and went out to speak. Here, Lan'er waits for Cao's bathing and lunch break.
Let's say that Zhang Dazhuan has two people, and he also took a lunch break after dinner. It's just that where can I sleep, I really want to talk to my son and daughter-in-law again, but I think that they have been running all the way for many days to get home, and it is time for them to rest, so I endured it and didn't go.
Zhang Huai took his younger brother to the study, sat down on the bamboo chair, and after Heipi served them tea, he withdrew.
It was a large study, with three walls, and a bookcase more than a man high, and two rows of bookshelves, most of which were filled with books, neatly arranged vertically, and labeled; Facing the window in the front yard, there are two rows of tables and chairs, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table are complete. It seems that the children are also reading here.
Zhang Yang was dumbfounded: he didn't have so many books.
He asked strangely, "Brother, why did you get so many books?" I don't have that many books! ”
Huaizi said with a smile: "I bought it myself, and then when the babies grew up, I asked people to buy it everywhere and collected it everywhere." As long as you pay for it, and you don't buy an out-of-print lone book to treasure, what book can't you buy? ”
Zhang Yang nodded, looked at his brother and sighed, and said with a complicated expression: "If my brother has been studying." It's also easy to earn a jinshi. ”
Huaizi smiled and said, "That's not necessarily. I live more comfortably than you now, so I don't envy being an official. ”
Yang Zi smiled: "That's right, I believe it very much." ”
Huaizi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Yang Zi, it's not that my brother likes to take care of your business." Brother also knows. You're not the same as your brother. But you have married so many concubines. The younger brother and sister look virtuous again, can she manage it? If you can't control it, you go home and watch your wife and concubine fight. It's a mess. Don't have a blockage? ”
Yang Zi was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Brother, when I was a child, my family was poor. You can't marry a daughter-in-law, our father and mother are angry and worried. Remember? I swore to take the Xiucai exam, but wasn't it just to marry a daughter-in-law! ”
Back then, the ten-year-old boy patted his thin chest and told his family that he wanted those who had daughters to come to the door and beg him to marry their daughters!
Huaizi's eyes widened and said, "Then you don't have to marry so much!" There are two, and it looks like it's really ...... Not so good. ”
Yang Zi smiled and said, "Naturally, it's not because of this." Could it be that just because of a gambling sentence back then, I would accept a bunch of women back? He fell down in his chair in despair and said abruptly, "Do you think I want to accept so many people?" At the beginning, I couldn't afford to give a dowry and couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, but now, when people send my daughter-in-law to me, I'm also worried! ”
He chuckled again: "You mean that Gao, right?" That's the one I picked myself. It wasn't her who people wanted to marry at the beginning, it was her sister, and she was a very powerful woman. The woman, who saw him as if he had something in her pocket, made him uncomfortable just thinking about it.
When he was a child, he studied to facilitate marrying a daughter-in-law, but he never expected that when he jumped out of the farm gate and jumped into the dragon gate, it would be inconvenient for him to marry his daughter-in-law.
Since you can't call the shots, then choose the best one! So, among the many candidates, he chose Cao Mozhu as his wife, who was born in a scholarly family, a real lady; Then I picked these concubines, but two of them were picked in reverse.
Huaizi was stunned, looked at his younger brother's handsome face, and said after a while: "You don't have to say it." My brother knows that it is not easy to be an official, so you should be careful. I can only help you with money, and the rest is up to you. ”
After thinking about it, he asked, "You are such a little sesame official, why are you also memorable?" ”
Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled: "I don't care if the officials are big or small, just look at whether you are useful or not." ”
Zhang Huai was stunned.
Zhang Yang chuckled: "Don't talk about this, it's just a woman, can you turn the sky upside down?" When I came home, I brought eight old soldiers, all of whom were wounded and disabled, but each of them had some ability. You use it to see if it's easy. If you think it's good, I'll try to search for some for you. ”
Zhang Huai smiled and said, "Call first, it's just to take care of the home, and then help me practice some manpower." So he called the black skin in.
Zhang Yang asked him to go to Zhang Cheng, and said that the master wanted to see the eight people and asked him to bring them.
Blackskin turned and went.
After making tea, he brought eight rough men in and filled the empty space of the study.
Huaizi saw that these people were not unusual, they were very tall, short, fat and thin, weathered, and their faces were rough, the only difference was the calmness in their eyes.
Zhang Yang introduced them to Huaizi: "This is my brother, with a single name, Huaizi." From now on, you can do everything according to him. If you are satisfied after a month, you can bring your family members; If you don't want to stay, you will also be sent to Pantang, and you will go back to your hometown. ”
Huaizi didn't make a sound, just looked at them quietly.
But the eight people said in unison: "The villain is willing to stay." Please arrange for the adults to bring the family members of the little ones here. And knelt down on one leg and saluted Huaizi.
Zhang Yang and Zhang Huai were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and Zhang Yang asked, "How can you make a decision so quickly?" ”
There was a short, thin man, with his left hand hanging down, a little inflexible, as if he had hurt his tendons. He said to Brother Zhang Yang: "We are people who escaped death on the battlefield, and if we can pick up a life and come back, it is also a matter of God." Not to mention the big man's family, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, and it is a great blessing to be able to live here. ”
Zhang Huai narrowed his narrow eyes, leaking a glimmer of light, and said with a smile: "I invited you here, but I am not for the elderly." If you lack a gatehouse, or if you are a coolie who works, you can buy it with money in Xiatang. ”
The thin man hurriedly said: "Of course this villain understands that since he should do his best to contribute to the eldest master, all he wants is to give his children and grandchildren a good life." ”
Everyone nodded and said: "Listening to Huang Mai, the words he knows are still taught by the eldest master, and he can also read with the young masters, which is something that the little ones dare not think of, just with this article, it is also worth waiting for us to stay." ”
After speaking, he looked at this room full of books, and his eyes were eager.
In fact, these are not the main ones, the main thing is that they see that the Zhang family is a Xinrong family, and it is still in its infancy. Listening to Huang Mai, there are more than a dozen mountains and forests like this in the Zhang family, so do you still have it? There is also the county order of Zhang Yang, which is a county order at this time, and what about ten years later?
Such a family, if he doesn't take refuge at this time, when he really becomes a wealthy family, can he still look at them cripples in his eyes?
