The next day, Doctor Qu took Yueyun to say goodbye to the people in Yunfu, but Mrs. Tai did not come to see her off, which made Xiu a little strange. However, in addition to Mrs. Tai, Shen Yu, Yun Xian, and Luan Qing were all present, and everyone was reluctant at first, and then congratulated the divine doctor on receiving the righteous daughter, and the scene was lively.

After sending away Doctor Qu and returning to their own gardens, Shen Yu and Izuku walked slowly at the end, and the former whispered: "With the temperament of the master, he should have ignored external objects." But Yunfu has an order, and the master is willing to do everything, even if he lies, don't you think it's strange? ”

"Isn't it related to Yunfu?" Izuku has always thought so.

Shen Yu smiled meaningfully: "I used to think so too, but yesterday Mrs. Tai specially explained that she was too sad and unwell because of the matter in the second room, and she didn't come to send the master today." I get a little bit of it. He saw that Xiu hadn't reacted yet, and hinted in a low voice: "Master, he's never married in his life!" ”

"You mean......" Xiu'e frowned slightly, and warned him: "Don't talk nonsense, you don't have to ruin the reputation of the two of them!" ”

"What did I say? I didn't say anything, you came up with the persuasion yourself. Besides, even if there is anything, I am afraid that it is the master's wishful thinking. Shen Yu smiled playfully: "But Mrs. Tai can make the old marquis fall in love, and her charm should not be underestimated, if the master is in love, it is understandable that he will not even marry for life." ”

"The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes!" Out of Xiu Bo sneered: "Beware of Mrs. Tai skinning you." ”

Shen Yu laughed out loud, and suddenly turned into a long sigh: "I always feel that I will follow in the footsteps of my master...... Do you think I will? When he said this, a pair of inky black eyes stared at Chuxiu for a moment, as if he was cautiously tempting, and as if he was confessing his heart.

Out of Xiu stopped and lowered his eyes to stop looking at him: "Even if you want not to marry for the rest of your life, I'm afraid that Marquis Wenchang will not agree." ”

"Then I'll wait." Shen Yu no longer twists and turns: "People's hearts are flesh and blood, I don't believe that you will be hard-hearted all your life." ”

Izuku smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Why do you bother...... After a few years, my face will wither, and I will be old and decrepit, and you will ......"

"I don't love your face alone." Shen Yu immediately explained: "Naturally, everyone has a love for beauty, and you really feel amazing when you first see it." But now, am I the superficial person? If you talk about beauty alone, although you are the first in Nanxi, you are not the first in your life, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and there are latecomers to replace them. ”

Shen Yu didn't give Xiu a chance to speak, and sighed again: "Han Chu, how do you want me to say that you understand?" I just had to show you my heart. ”

Dissecting ...... Izumi only felt a choke in her throat, and in the end she cruelly refused: "But I have already decided to ......"

"You're only seventeen right now, don't rush to make a decision." Shen Yu interrupted her again: "There is still a long way to go in my life, I can afford to wait, don't stop me." ”

"Little Hou Ye, you are crazy!" Izumi exclaimed in a low voice, as if it was difficult to bear this affectionate friendship.

"In this life, how can you not go crazy once?" Shen Yu looked a little scoundrel, almost cheekily joking: "Don't be afraid, I won't bother you in the near future, since I have decided to live in Yanlan City for a long time, I always have to find something to do, not to mention the side, making friends is inevitable, and it is not a bad thing to know a few more people." ”

Dating? At this point, Izuku seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked, "Is Sister Ling married to the fourth prince?" ”

"It's not the fourth prince, my brother-in-law has the title of prince, and he is the 'Fu King'." Shen Yu corrected: "My sister Shen Xuan got married last year, and you came to Fangzhou with Bang Zhi at that time, so I didn't see it." My sister is the wife of King Fu, and when she got married, she was pompous...... Tsk......"

He "tsk" twice, and saw that Chu Xiu's face suddenly turned cold, thinking that she remembered a marriage letter left by Yun Ci, so he hurriedly stopped his mouth: "Han Chu, I don't have a heart." ”

Seeing that Shen Yuhui was wrong, Izuku sighed lightly and shook his head: "Little Marquis, your brother-in-law King Fu has the support of Wenchen, and King Mu is a prominent military achievement. You are destined to stand in the ranks of King Fu and ...... to King Mu You have to be careful. ”

Shen Yu really didn't even think about it: "I wrote a letter to inform my father that I wanted to live here for a long time, but he didn't remind him!" ”

How can such a thing be written in an epistle? Wouldn't it be troublesome to intercept someone halfway? Izuku said cautiously: "About Wenchanghou thinks that you have the Yun clan to take care of, you will not be disappointed...... However, King Fu and King Mu have their own advantages, and for a while, the Yun clan is afraid that they will take a wait-and-see attitude, but you have to be careful. ”

Seeing that Shen Yu didn't seem to understand, he gritted his teeth angrily: "Don't you understand?" Fangzhou is the fiefdom of King Mu, you stay here, if there is really a dispute for the prince one day, King Mu will be the first to hold you hostage and make conditions to your father! If the Marquis of Wenchang is bent on supporting King Fu, he may kill you to set an example! ”

She said it so clearly that Shen Yu finally understood. He spends all day drinking and getting down to business, where do you want to get so much? But how could a woman from a dusty background understand this?

Seeing Shen Yu's inquiring gaze, he knew what he was thinking, so he explained: "In the past, in the Zuihualou, the benefactors often analyzed the current affairs of the north and the south, and I heard some of them...... Later, when I came here, I heard him talk about it in a few words. ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu was suddenly very disappointed, and even gave up on himself. Mrs. Tai is right, with her current mental talent, there is really no place that people can look down on, and it is too far and too far away from Zhiyunci, how can she try to impress Han Chu's heart?

"For the sake of the Marquis of Wenchang, and for your own safety, little marquis, hurry back to Jingzhou!" Izuku worriedly persuaded again.

Shen Yu came back to his senses, looked at her for a long time, saw that her worries were very sincere, and his heart was suddenly full of satisfaction and emotion, he felt that even if he died for her, it was worth it, what if he went to the soup and fire? He couldn't help but laugh casually: "You're worried too early, I know it." ”

Seeing that he seemed to be confident, it was not easy to say much, the two of them had nothing to say all the way, and Shen Yu sent her back to Zhiyanxuan.

*****

After that, according to Mrs. Tai's instructions, Chuxiu took over the feed-in in an all-round way, and when she didn't start to "Xiaoyuezi", she only looked at the old accounts and learned the old examples in Zhiyanxuan. After the "little moon", she went to Rongjin Hall every morning and evening to listen to Mrs. Tai's admonition and learn the affairs of the house.

She has already followed Yun Ci to learn accounts, and she is also very smart, although the matter of feeding is cumbersome, it is just money and favors. As long as these two things are grasped, many things have old precedents to follow, and it is not difficult to take over. Besides, there are several right-hand men such as the cloud housekeeper in the house.

For Izuku, the matter of money is still easy to say, just follow the accounts left and right, and she also has some experience; But people are sophisticated, but they can't be learned in a moment, not to mention that the Yunfu family has a big business, and the expenses are really powerful, what kind of things should be given to what kind of part, when to reward and when to deduct, it is a science.

Mrs. Tai explained in a few words, and gave a list of important families and figures in the north and south, who is in charge, who is in power, which lady is favored, which lady is out of power, and the list is very clear at a glance. Naturally, Shen Yu's family, the Marquis of Wenchang, is also on it.

Izuku was born with the ability to remember, and it is not difficult to remember this list, let alone other accounts. Therefore, in the past month, the chores and silver money in and out of Yunfu have passed through her hands, and there is not much mistake.

Mrs. Tai saw that Xiu was learning quickly, and although she didn't praise her, she was satisfied in her heart, so she put forward a new request to her - to abandon the old diseases and re-establish the new rules of Yunfu.

It has been passed down from the Xinhou Mansion for hundreds of years, and some old rules have been in vogue from time to time, but they are still followed. Mrs. Tai had already wanted to establish a new rule, but she was both outside and inside, so she really lacked skills, so she never found a chance. This time, Mrs. Tai gave Chuxiu half a year to set up new rules for Yunfu, not only to break through the rules and regulations, but also to take the essence of those old rules and discard their dross.

And Mrs. Tai herself is busy dealing with business in various places in the middle of the year, and Rong Jintang comes and goes endlessly, all of whom are stewards of various industries from all over the country who come to report their accounts.

Izuku accepted this order, and was a little nervous. The few powerful people around him are all women, and only one of them is also from martial arts, so he doesn't know anything about it. Izuku thought of Shen Yu, thinking that he was the youngest son of the Marquis of Wenchang after all, I don't know what rules in the Shen Mansion can be used for reference?

Thinking like this, Chu Xiu's original intention was to invite Shen Yu to come over to the house and discuss countermeasures with him, but he felt that this was a bit of a use, and he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.

On July 18, the side branches from all over the north and south will gather in the Xinhou Mansion and bring the outstanding men selected from the clan to show Mrs. Tai.

This is the biggest thing for the Yun clan at the moment, choosing the son to succeed Yun and then inherit the position of marquis in the future. Therefore, each branch is eager to move and eager to try, for fear that the best child in their branch will not be selected.

Since the beginning of July, various branches have come one after another, and some of them have preconceived ideas, and they deliberately left in advance, wanting to bring the children in private for Mrs. Tai to see.

As early as the end of June, Izuku ordered to go down and clean up a few vacant gardens and settle the tribesmen. I also carefully asked about the human relations among them, which one is good friends with which one? Which one has a feud with which one? She inquired clearly, and tried to avoid arranging the two discordant branches to eat and live together, so as not to cause unpleasantness to everyone.

In the blink of an eye, July 18 is approaching, and each branch has selected a total of 167 children to come, and two of them have been delayed on the road and have not been able to arrive as scheduled. Among these children, there are as young as two or three years old, as old as seven or eight years old, all of them are strong and healthy, with handsome eyebrows and eyes, and many of them look like Yun Ci or the old marquis Yun Li. It seems that each has its own tricks.

As early as a few days ago, someone had brought the child to Zhiyan Xuan to visit, and the person who came did not refuse, but he didn't take a look at the child, and he didn't ask either, indicating that he wanted Mrs. Tai's opinion to be the mainstay.

The Yun clan has not been looking forward to a certain day so unanimously for a long time. This time, because it was the Hou Mansion who chose the heir, it attracted the attention of all branches. Not only the various branches, but also the major families of the north and south, and even the royal family, have attracted the attention of it.

Everyone is waiting for the day when the heir will be chosen......
