When Xin Yi got up the next day, there was no shadow of Fu Jiuqu, and the bedding and mats in the room were all in order, and no one could see the traces of the husband and wife sleeping in separate beds.

Xin Yi sat in silence for a moment, then got up to take care of the mansion.

This huge mansion is divided into two parts.

The front part is the office place, where the Zhizhou Yamen and major political institutions are concentrated. The latter part is the residence of Lord Zhizhou. Water pavilion garden, pavilion rockery, exquisite house, the area is not small, to all sprinkle and clean up, is a big project.

It has been a few days since the predecessor Zhizhou resigned, and the official affairs of Yangzhou Mansion were represented by Ge Yong, the general judge.

This mansion has been empty for a long time, and the servants of the former Zhizhou Mansion were either dismissed or left with the former Zhizhou, and now the people working in the mansion, except for the entourage brought by Fu Jiuqu and Xin Yi from Bianjing, are all arranged by Ge Yong and his wife to do rough chores.

Before Fu Jiuqu moved in, the house had actually been cleaned once, but Xin Yi was not at ease, so he had already explained yesterday that he would clean it inside and out.

Therefore, when she went out, there were shadows of girls working everywhere.

It's not easy to be a housewife, especially in a big house with so many people.

In the past, in the eldest princess's mansion, there were all old people who the eldest princess was used to, and she only had to move her mouth, and she couldn't worry too much at all.

Now it is different, the servants arranged by Ge Yong cannot be fully trusted, and it is difficult to send them away without them, which is a dilemma.

Xin Yi took a look at the roster, found two older stewards from Bianjing's entourage, summoned them to meet with him, explained them, and asked them to be responsible for the distribution of these personnel.

Except for her and the children's rooms, they were to be divided equally among the houses.

When Liang Liang and Zhang Dalang came to pick her up at noon, Xin Yi asked them to help hire some more capable servants in Yangzhou City to fill in the mansion to do things.

The lover should get down and drive the donkey cart to carry Xin Yi to the Wenjin bridgehead.

It is not far from Yangzhou Prefecture, densely populated and commercially developed.

The shop is located in a conspicuous position at the head of the bridge, a shop occupies three sides, the bottom shop is spacious and atmospheric, there are two floors of attic on the top, the width and depth are very suitable, what Xin Yi likes the most is that there is a backyard behind the shop, and behind the courtyard is a row of waterfront back seats, not only the shop can be opened, but also the accommodation of personnel can be solved.

The lover looked at her and glanced at Zhang Dalang.

"I guess my sister will take a fancy to it."

The tooth is on one side, and she is better at looking at the face than the beloved.

"If the lady looks suitable, I will ask the owner to come to the tooth shop, you can meet, have tea, and talk to your face......

Ya Yu is only a middle-aged person, and he can't do a lot of things, so he sincerely wants to rent a shop, and he has to meet with the landlord to talk.

Xin Yi responded, "I'm tired."

The tooth thief happily passed the word, and Xin Yi, accompanied by his lover and Zhang Dalang, went to wait in the tooth shop.

After about two minutes, an old man in a gray cloth robe hurried over on a donkey, took a small servant, and entered the house with a smile from the tooth.

Xin Yi went out today wearing a hat and a veil to cover her, and no one knew that she was the wife of the new Zhizhou. ….

As Zhang Dalang said, the old man was really easy to talk to, bargained for a moment, and lost a hundred taels of rent.

Xin Yi had done his homework before he came, and probably knew the rental price of the shop in Yangzhou, and after weighing it, he decided on it.

Unexpectedly, when the lease documents were signed, the old man hesitated to tell her.

"Lao Er has to explain something to the lady first, so as not to tear you and me apart after making the paperwork......

Xin Yi smiled slightly, "Elder Zhen, please speak."

The old man glanced at the tooth and said softly, "You are strangers, and you may not know much about the little old man. In fact, in Yangzhou, Lao Er has a nickname, called Zhen Bancai, who is the one who opens the coffin shop......

Fang Cai Yayu only introduced the old man's surname Zhen, called Zhen Kegong, who lived in Liuxiang in Yangzhou Xicheng, and did not say anything about the next thing.

Xin Yi glanced at him, and smiled awkwardly: "Elder Zhen is a cheerful person, I am afraid that you will have a bad heart, so I want me to say that the coffin shop has already moved to the other side of Liuxiang, and there is no relationship, no relationship......

No wonder!

It turned out that there was a coffin shop here.

Xin Yi knew in his heart that this old man was a frank person, so he decisively negotiated the price again, and it was reduced by fifty taels, and the document was signed, and he got the key to the concierge on the spot, handed it to Zhang Dalang and his lover, and asked them to do it.

The most important thing to be a manager is to be lazy, everything is not advisable to do it yourself, to find the right person, you must completely trust, can explain the things, let others do it, this is the purpose of Xinyi.

As soon as she returned to the house, the two stewards came up to report, and Xin Yi's vision of people was once again confirmed, and the steward worked hard to keep everything in the house in order when she left.

Xin Yi nodded with satisfaction, rewarded the money, and made a division of labor for the two - the surname Yan was in charge of foreign affairs, and the surname He was in charge of internal affairs.

The two stewards happily led the errand, and Xin Yi looked at a room of girls and made a slight allocation.

Angelica Angelica and Aster have been taking care of the three little ones, one is in charge of the two big ones, and the other is in charge of Sannian's residence. Xingyuan and Taoyu were the people who Brother Jiu had placed by her side before, and they were almost inseparable, and Xin Yi was not good at arranging their other affairs, so he handed over the private chores in the back house to Xiang Ling to manage.

Xiang Ling just wants to be a mediocre female chef, and she is reluctant to take care of so many things, but I heard Xin Yi say that Cheng Cang's family is also a big house, a large family, and if you don't learn to be a housekeeper, you will suffer if you marry in the future, so she blushed.

The matter between her and Cheng Cang can be regarded as a glimpse.

On the way to Yangzhou, Xin Yi saw that the girl Xiangling saw Cheng Cang.

Cheng Cang is also a kind-hearted person, Xin Yi asked him about it, but he changed his original intention, he immediately said that as long as the Xiangling girl's family agreed, he would immediately write back to Beijing and let the family go to Zhang's family to propose relatives......

Xin Yi summed it up on both sides and made this big medium, but it was inconvenient to work on the boat, and there was no chance to officially finalize it for them.

So on the third day after Xin Yi settled down, he asked Xiang Ling to fry a few dishes, invited Cheng Cang to come over, and let the two meet face to face.

Xin Yi did not inform Fu Jiuqu of these things.

Fu Jiuqu was busy all day long, except for helping the three children find Xixi to teach, he didn't interfere in other chores, and Xin Yi didn't bother him.

As soon as the new official took office three times, as soon as he arrived in Yangzhou, Fu Jiuqu had to passively enter the role of Zhizhou, going out early and returning late every day, and sometimes he had to be busy until the middle of the night before returning to the back house to rest.

For at least three or five days, Xin Yi didn't even see his figure.

came back too late, and he didn't want to disturb Xin Yi in the room, so he asked the girl to clean up the second room and sleep here.

The days passed like this......

In half a month, the two rarely met, and each had their own busy methods.

Fu Jiuqu was busy getting acquainted with his new role, and Xin Yi had to deal with visits from the ladies of the officials and ladies of the gentry from Yangzhou Mansion in the planning of the opening of the medical hall.

In this era, in addition to taking care of the family house, the wife of the back house is trying to contribute to her husband's career. Although Xin Yi can push and push, and even refuses to give gifts, it is still inevitable that these people's daily nagging.

Half a month later, she finally got tired of it, so she asked Zhou Daozi to write a prescription, and from then on, she said that she was sick and thanked the guests, and finally cleared up.......
