Xiao Rui said: "Queen Mother, we have worked hard for so long and walked this journey of tens of thousands of miles. I've been exhausted for a long time. My father just stayed with us for half a day to discuss state affairs. At this time, although Anfu is in spirit, you see, this is all strong, and she has long been sleepy. Let's hurry back to our mansion with Anfu. Tomorrow, Mingyue and I will bring Anfu into the palace again. ”

Queen Fang looked at it, and sure enough, Xiao Anfu was already sleepy, and she was busy calling to send her out of the palace, and she gave thousands of instructions, and called Haosheng to take care of her.

In this way, Qin Mingyue's family left the palace and returned to their national teacher's mansion.

Xiao Kun watched the third brother's family leave, and then exhaled. In fact, he also wanted to follow the third brother's family out of the palace to live in the national teacher's mansion for a few days. In the past, every time the third brother and the national teacher returned to the capital, they took him to the national teacher's mansion to live for a few months. However, this time, the third brother patronized Anfu's little niece and didn't take care of him at all, Xiao Kun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Qin Mingyue's family easily returned to their national teacher's mansion, and on the way, Xiao Anfu was already asleep. Qin Mingyue handed it over to the nurse and Mama Liao to serve Anfu, while she and Xiao Rui hurried to wash up.

When everything was done, Dongqu came over and said, "Master Guoshi, Steward Zhai and Mama Ma come to say goodbye." ”

Qin Mingyue was wearing homely clothes, her hair was scattered, and she said, "You tell Steward Zhai that I will see him again tomorrow." During this period of time, he worked hard in the capital. Please come over. ”

Winter Song is busy.

After a while, Mama Ma came in. As soon as she came in, Mama Ma looked at Qin Mingyue carefully, and saw that Qin Mingyue's face was ruddy, and her glory was even greater, so she was relieved and hurriedly kowtowed, Qin Mingyue smiled and let Dongqu help her up, and said, "Mama, we haven't seen each other for two years." Everything in the capital is bothering Mama, and Mama still does this false ceremony with me. Let's sit down and talk. ”

Mama Ma knew Qin Mingyue's temper, sat on the small pestle, and said, "What bothers me, it's just my business." Besides, in the past two years, neither the national teacher nor the prince have lived in the mansion, and there is no master in the mansion, so there is nothing to do, just some exchanges and gifts with various families, these are examples to follow. And then there are the management of these subordinates in our mansion, and these are also rules. I've been lazy in the past two years. ”

Qin Mingyue said: "Look at it, how can you be lazy? When we returned home, all the tea, snacks, furnishings, and furnishings were exquisite. I don't have to fuck my heart at all. That's what Mama is capable of. ”

Mama Ma smiled and said, "What am I?" But Steward Zhai is a little busier. The two of us are divided into internal and external housekeepers. I was in charge of the servants in the house, and the gifts to and fro the houses, and the repairs in the house, and the curtains and curtains everywhere. Because neither of you has lived in the mansion for the past two years, there are a lot fewer things. There was nothing to do. It is Steward Zhai who has to manage the various industries of the national teacher outside, although a few national teacher retainers are in charge of business, so he doesn't have to worry about this. However, he is in charge of the granges, shops and rent collection everywhere, so for half of the year, he is running outside to watch things everywhere. Just in charge of the national teacher's property, as well as the prince's houses, fields, and shops, are also handed over to him to manage. He made the accounts of each year clear. It's not easy. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "You two have worked hard. I brought gifts for you all. Tomorrow, let the winter song be sent to you. ”

Mama Ma hurriedly said: "I don't dare to take this seriously." In the past few years, after the marriage of the National Teacher, we moved to this National Teacher's mansion, and the National Teacher gave us a reward every once in a while. The old slave also saved a lot of private money. ”

Qin Mingyue said with a smile: "It's good that Mama has saved money, let's see if Steward Zhai gives an idea, buy some properties, and then raise a man and a woman from your Ma family, and there will be someone who will inherit cigarettes and serve you in the future." Don't worry about pension, grandma will be my pension in the future. ”

Mama Ma couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard this, she hurriedly swallowed it, and choked up and said, "The national teacher is just too good to us." I am really lucky to be able to follow the National Teacher in my life. To tell you the truth, after the news of your pregnancy arrived in the capital, my heart hung day and night. At that time, I wanted to go to Liang Province with me. However, you wrote to say that let Mama Liao go over and let me stay in the capital to guard your home for you. When I think about it, it's the same thing. After all, Mama Liao is a person who has given birth, and she is still the nurse of the national teacher, and she has rich experience in this production and watching children. As for me, in other aspects, it is okay to take care of the house and manage the people, but not in the production aspect. ”

"So, I will stay and ask Mama Liao to go to Liang Province to take care of you, and you must keep the mother and daughter of the National Teacher safe. I am in the capital, day and night, I ask God to bless me, and I must bless the national teacher. Fortunately, the heavens follow the wishes of the people, and the national teacher is safe and sound, so I have more than half of my heart. ”

Qin Mingyue said with a smile: "Mama don't worry, there are so many people around me who take care of me, and the prince also takes care of me, what can I do?" Didn't you just come over smoothly? ”

Mama Ma also laughed.

Qin Mingyue asked: "In the past two years, there has been nothing in the mansion, right?" ”

Mama Ma knew what Qin Mingyue meant, and hurriedly said, "In the past two years, there has been nothing going on in our mansion. All the accounts are kept there, and if the national teacher is free, he will look at it, and if he is not free, he will ask the Dongqu girls to look at it. According to the practice of the National Teacher, all the servants in our mansion, in addition to the monthly money on time, the three festivals every year, the birthday of the National Teacher, the birthday of the prince, and the successful birth of the little county lord by the National Teacher, such happy events, have been rewarded. ”

"In addition, in the mansion, over the years, the family has had more and more children, and we have hired a gentleman in the mansion to teach the children of the servants to know words, and to study on errands everywhere, and now, many of them have been learned. These well-trained maids have taken the best and chosen to work as errands everywhere. The rest were not chosen, so they were arranged in houses outside the city, as well as various granges and shops. Some of them went to various workshops in the prefecture. There are no idle people. ”

"On the side of the Qin family of the Duke of Liguo, the Duchess of the State is now more and more sophisticated as a housekeeper, but the Duchess of the State is okay to see the old slave and trust the old slave, every time it is time for the Duchess to give birth and recuperate in confinement, she will send someone to call me over to help her as a housekeeper for a while."

"In the past two years, the Duchess of the Kingdom has given birth to three young ladies, and the old slave has gone over to take care of the affairs of the mansion. This time, the older generation of Miss Gu has already married, but the fourth Miss of the concubine, Miss Wu, Miss 6, and Miss 7 have all grown up, and the young ladies born to the Duchess of Guo are also ten years old. It's a lot easier. ”

"The fourth young lady is just that, but this young lady is really very smart, and they all say that this niece is like an aunt, which is not wrong at all. Miss Big and Small, she really has the neat appearance of a national teacher. is decisive in killing, and now she is a good helper of the Duchess of the Kingdom. ”

Qin Mingyue naturally became happy when she heard that her niece had already been so promising.
