Chapter 62: Finally Like Home
When Wang Zhen came home from work, the five people arranged by Steward Zhang were already in place. Decorating a new home and a new house requires careful thinking about the daughter's work, so all the women arranged by Steward Zhang are women.
Seeing Wang Zhen returning, the steward immediately summoned everyone to the hall to greet Wang Zhen and introduce himself.
Wang Zhen sat on the chair of the head of the Taishi, listening to the sound of "master", feeling unaccustomed, but for the first time, he also had a sense of responsibility to support a family. The king gave each of them a tael of silver as a gift for his meeting.
Wang Zhen said: "I used to be a wild boy in a mountain village, and I am only here today thanks to the care of the owner Zhang Xuan. We are here today for a reason. So, you don't need to be too polite to me, just treat each other like family! I will be called Aunt Liu as a housekeeper, Aunt Gui in the kitchen, Aunt Zhang as a laundry worker, and I will call the two girls Xiaorong and Xiaoran. Take care of me in the future! The renovation and decoration of the house will be done to everyone. ”
Aunt Liu said: "The lord is polite to the subordinates, the subordinates can't lose their respect to the lord, you haven't thanked the lord for the name first!" ”
The remaining four people immediately bowed and said in unison: "Thank you for the name!" ”
Aunt Gui, who was cooking, asked, "Master, are you eating at home tonight?" ”
Wang Zhile said: "Okay! I bought this house and never cooked on a fire. There is Aunt Lao Gui. ”
Aunt Gui said: "Where did the master say! This is what the next person should do. ”
Wang Zhen thought about it before he reacted, and said, "That's not right! There is no food or rice at home, how are you going to cook? ”
Aunt Liu said: "Master, I have already asked someone to bring rice in the afternoon, and the vegetables have been bought." Aunt Gui hurry up and cook, don't be hungry master, Xiao Rong will also go to help. ”
Wang asked, "Aunt Liu, where did you get the money?" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Steward Zhang gave me fifty taels of expenses this morning. ”
Wang Zhen took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his arms and handed it to Aunt Liu, saying, "Aunt Liu, you can only ask me for money in the future!" I'm not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others, although the owner has a big business and makes a lot of money, but the expenses are also large, so the accounts with the Zhang family must be clear, and the expenses of the marriage must be written down in the account one by one, and your wages will also be paid by me. Although I don't make much money, I can support this family. ”
Aunt Liu said: "The master said! I get it! Is the account going to be kept today? ”
Wang Zhen said: "I can't figure out the previous ones, so let's start today!" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Okay! ”
The king asked, "The weather has become cold these days, have you prepared all your bedrooms, bedding and other items?" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Don't bother the master! The bedrooms have been booked, and the corresponding items have been prepared. ”
Wang asked: "Okay! If you need anything, just come to me. Nothing else, go and rest. ”
Aunt Zhang, who was washing clothes, stepped forward and asked, "Does the master have any clothes that need to be washed?" ”
Wang Zhen saw that the official uniform on his body had been worn for several days, and said, "Aunt Zhang, help me wash this official uniform tomorrow!" ”
Aunt Zhang said, "Okay, sir! ”
Xiao Ran asked, "Where are you going to eat?" I'll bring it to the master. ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Don't bother, I'll eat with everyone!" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Master, you can't eat with your subordinates!" What a system this becomes! ”
Wang Zhen said: "It's so boring for me to eat alone, so I should set up a reception banquet for you!" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Master, only this once, not an example!" Otherwise, the rules are all out of order! I hope the master won't make it difficult for me to do things. ”
Wang Zhen smiled and nodded in agreement, went back to the room to change into civilian clothes, and prepared to eat. Dinner was served in the dining room next to the kitchen. Except for Wang Qian, everyone else ate very restrainedly.
Wang Zhen said: "This place is small, so you don't have to follow the rules like in Zhang's Manor." ”
Aunt Liu said: "Master, the rules can't be messed up. The lord is used to being free and easy, and he doesn't care about etiquette. But the future lady was born in a family of eunuchs, and the most important thing for eunuchs is family education and etiquette. So, the lord can't just think about himself. ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Aunt Liu has learned a lesson!" It's my shortsightedness! ”
After dinner, Wang Zhen walked to the Drunken Immortal Residence. Drunken Xianju business is very good, and Shopkeeper Zheng and the two guys are busy.
Wang Zhen stepped forward and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Zheng, business is really good!" ”
Zheng Fang said: "Yo! Prince Wang! I'm sorry today! There is a long way to go! Do you want two altars of daughter red? ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "There are few people today, and a jar of wine is enough." ”
Wang Zhen came to Ji Yaxuan with the wine, put the wine on the table in the courtyard, and handed the invitations to Mr. Xu and Ah Fu respectively.
Wang asked: "On the third day of November, I got married!" I would like to invite you two to come. ”
Mr. Xu and Ah Fu took the invitation and said they were happy.
Ah Fu said: "Wang Qian, why is it so fast?" There are only a few days left before the third day of November, so how can we have time to prepare wedding gifts! ”
Wang Qian: "You don't need to give gifts, you can come to give me face." ”
Ah Fu said: "How can this work! You're a good friend of mine, how can I not give a gift? ”
Wang asked: "Ah Fu, I really don't need it!" Speaking of gifts, I do have a gift for you. ”
Ah Fu asked, "Good and decent, why did you give me a gift?" ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Don't you want to know what the gift is?" ”
Ah Fu asked, "What is it?" ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "It's Xiaorong!" I've already figured out a way to get Xiaorong to my house. ”
Ah Fu said in disbelief: "Really? ”
Wang asked: "Of course it's true! Has your plan to take Xiaorong back to the countryside changed? ”
Ah Fu said: "It hasn't changed! ”
Wang asked: "Then you can take Xiaorong away after attending my wedding banquet!" ”
Ah Fu said: "Okay! Good! I really don't know how to thank you. ”
Wang asked: "Actually, I didn't make any effort, just a little effort!" But I won't be finalized until I go back tonight and ask Xiaorong himself what he means. After all, you have to respect the wishes of girls! Ah Fu nodded vigorously.
Mr. Xu praised: "Wang Zhen, you kid is really good!" No wonder you can get a good wife! ”
Wang Zhen smiled: "Mr. Xu, don't laugh at me!" Let's have a drink together! Mr. Xu, you must like this wine. Five taels of silver for a jar! ……”
Wang Zhen returned home, called Xiao Rong to the living room alone, and said, "Xiao Rong, I went to see Ah Fu just now." Ah Fu said that he wants to take you back to his hometown and live on the farm! Would you like to? ”
Xiao Rong said: "Ah Fu is kind to me!" I am willing to marry him and have children for him. ”
Wang asked: "That's good! When my wedding feast is over, you can follow him! Although your deed of sale is still with the Zhang family, your right to use it is with me, and the deed of sale will not affect your freedom. ”
Xiao Rong knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, and said, "The master is kind to Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong can't repay it!" Master, let Xiao Rong sleep for the master tonight! ”
Wang Zhen helped Xiao Rong up and said, "Xiao Rong, don't say stupid things!" Ah Fu is my friend, my friend's wife, don't be bullied! What's more, I'm going to get married in a few days, can I still be sorry for my wife? It's getting late, go back to sleep! ”
