Usually, Zheng Fang goes to Zuofu to study on two days, and is at home on a single day, but during this time, due to the impact of ground movements, the women's school is suspended for ten days.

Zheng Yu carefully inspected the surroundings of Yaxinxuan and Tingyu Xiaozhu with Mama Shi, there were no cracks in the walls, and the bricks and tiles were slightly damaged. Inventory the damaged items and make a detailed note of them. Then Zheng Yu himself took the list of Ya Xinxuan and Tingyu Xiaozhu, and gritted his teeth at the things on it.

She just went to the girls' school, and now she only recognizes two or three hundred words, but the names of the objects are a string of long and complex abnormalities, and there are almost a few words that she knows.

Mama Shi and her two maids are not very literate, so they can't help much, but she is sweating profusely and is extremely distressed!

Mama Shi sent a sour plum soup: "Miss, don't worry, drink a glass of water to quench your thirst." ”

Zheng Yu took the sour plum soup and drank it all, sighing. On weekdays, I see Jintong vigorously and resolutely, and taking care of housework is like a piece of cake, which is ready to go. How could it be her turn, and she couldn't even pay off the amount of the place where she lived from childhood to adulthood.

Mama Shi has served Zheng Yu from childhood to adulthood, and knows her temper well, knowing that she is so strong and unwilling to ask Jintong for help, she pretended to say casually: "Miss, Ya Xinxuan doesn't matter if you listen to Yu Xiaozhu, what kind of objects do you have, do you have a good idea in your heart?" ”

Zheng Yu suddenly realized: "Yes, I can check the number first." "It turned out to be a bad one, and it didn't match at all, which is really hell. Zheng Yu had no choice but to pull down his face and secretly go to Su Bai to help.

Su Bai usually comes to guide Zheng Yu to learn one or two hours of female workers on the afternoon of every month, she has a peaceful personality, exquisite craftsmanship, excellent patience, and is not as strict as Ning Zi, so Zheng Yu gets along with her the best.

Su Bai was also polite: "Miss, you first show the list of damaged items to the slave maid." ”

Zheng Yu shyly took out her list of words and pictures, and quietly peeked at Su Bai. Su Bai's face was as usual, and there was no intention of ridicule, Zheng Zhen felt better.

Su Bai looked at it for a while, and it was generally clear, so he checked it one by one and showed it to Zheng Yu. Then he told Zheng Fang: "Miss, the items displayed in each room and the warehouse are recorded according to the classification. ”

Then from Xin Yaxuan's large screens, gold, silver, copper, tin, jade, porcelain, hanging calligraphy and paintings, etc., one by one detailed explanations to Zheng Yu. As he talked, it turned out to be a big problem.

Su Bai held a stoneware pot: "Miss, this should obviously be a silver pot of water herons and beams, worth about 200 taels of silver, how can it become a worthless clay pot?" ”

Zheng Yu looked at the clay pot with a confused face, thinking for a while, I had the impression that I used a silver pot with a beautiful pattern before, but where did it go? She couldn't remember anything.

Su Bai didn't ask much, and pointed to a hanging painting on the wall and said: "How did this plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum quadruple picture carved with jade and silver filaments carved by Nanmu be replaced with a Danqing ink painting?" She approached and carefully looked at the seal of the ink painting, and twisted the paper with her hand to check the quality: "It is not painted by a famous teacher, and the paper is quite rough. ”

Zheng Yu looked sluggish, and finally understood why she couldn't even match the number, and the things in her room were changed?! Who is so bold?

Lan Xiang replied boldly: "Sister Su Bai, that's the case, when Sister Sakura was there, she said that the quadruple picture and the handle pot were not bright, so take them back to Mama Jiang and clean them before sending them back." ”

Su Bai smiled gently: "I'm tired of Mama Shi to go on a trip, go to Mama Jiang to ask, can you get in?" ”

Needless to say, Mama Jiang didn't receive anything at all!

The taste of being betrayed was naturally uncomfortable, and Zheng Yu was furious in his heart.

Sakura was sent by Shen Miaolian to her side, she has always trusted, and good rewards are given to her as soon as possible. Later, even if Sakura found out that she had taken money from others and stole valuables from the house to sell for money, she firmly believed that Jintong deliberately framed her, and tried to keep Sakura. And now, these few things in her room are obviously stolen by Sakura.

Ya Xinxuan was only exchanged for four items, and listening to Yu Xiaozhu, half of the items did not match or could not be found.

Zheng Yu sat on the couch dejectedly and said nothing. She realizes that Jintong is right to dispose of her mother-in-law, Sakura.

As soon as dinner was over that day, Zheng Yu took the list and personally asked Jintong for guilt.

Jintong was taken aback, she naturally knew in her heart how much Shen Miaolian and her party were greedy in the mansion at the beginning, and how many things in the mansion were sold by all means.

The reason why she kept this mess and didn't clean it up was that although Shen Miaolian said that she was expelled from the family temple, she claimed to the outside world that she was praying for blessings in the family temple, and she didn't know when she would come back. Take care of your own mess, Jintong is too lazy to care!

Second, this mess is a living evidence, and it is not bad to just wait for Zheng Qiyan to come back and wipe his "beloved concubine" on the ass.

Sanma is the situation in front of him, let Zheng Yu see with his own eyes, what her mother did is more effective than Jintong saying a hundred words.

But Jintong didn't expect Zheng Yu to come to her so simply to ask for guilt, and the tiger girl was really bloody and dared to act.

Jintong did not embarrass Zheng Fang, but after consulting Zheng Zheng's opinion, he asked Mama Cai and Su Bai Ningzi to go over to help and refurbish Yaxinxuan, and the destroyed and replaced items were cleared. As for listening to the rain Xiaozhu, let a few little girls usually watch and clean up, and ignore it for the time being.

Jintong saw that Zheng had no concept of money, so he promised to take her out to see her as a reward.

Except for going to Zuo's house to go to school, Zheng Yu has never been to any other place in Beijing, but he almost jumped with joy.

Picking a good weather, in order not to attract attention, the six masters and servants all wore ordinary clothes, and went out in the ox cart that transported vegetables and rice in the dining room.

Jin Tong told Zheng Yu that if they used the carriage of the Hou Mansion, it would be too eye-catching, and they would definitely not be able to have a good time.

Zheng Yu only felt very fresh, the carriage she sat in on weekdays was naturally tightly surrounded, and she would be criticized by Mama Shi when she lifted the curtain, saying that ladies should not look left and right, which would damage the image. Now, the ox cart is uncovered, and it is filled with four sacks of coarse millet as a backrest, and she can see enough at will!

Wu Ping drove the ox cart with a constipated face, and he was afraid that he would run too fast and bump Jintong and a few people, and he was afraid that he would be scolded by Jintong for running too slowly, and he had to behave well in front of Danzhu, control it with his strength, and be miserable.

It was hot in July, and I was only sweating, and I was afraid that Jintong and his Danzhu would be smoked, so it was easy to suffer to West Street, and I took a long breath and was relieved!

Wu Ping transported the coarse millet to the temporary shack of Anjifang, and these days there are some charitable people with relatively wealthy families who come to donate rice, grain, clothing and supplies, and Anjifang has sent a special person to take care of it.

Jintong took Zheng Fang around, and Zheng Zhen only exclaimed: "Mama Shi, those women are too immoral, right?" Working with men like that? It's really immoral! ”

Mama Shi looked at Zheng Fang lovingly: "Sister Fang, in order to fill their stomachs, the poor people can only do this!" ”

"Then you can't be so unclothed!" Zheng Yu saw that the clothes worn by some women did not fit, and the weather was hot, and the sleeves and clothes were quite indecent, and his face became more and more disgusted.

"Miss! This West Street is the poorest place in Shangjing, after the ground movement, these people don't even have a place to live, how can they take care of any decency! It's good to have a rag to cover your body, and you can eat well! ”

"I have dozens of clothes in a season, but they don't even have a single shirt to cover their bodies!" Zheng Yu has stayed in the Hou Mansion since he was a child, his eyes are full of wealth, where did he think that there would be people in the world who are so poor that they can't wear clothes: "Mother, otherwise, let's just take them to ...... We have a good family to raise, and we don't lack this. ”

Jintong explained, went out to hide his identity, and was not allowed to mention the Hou Mansion, and replaced it with his home.

"Sister Fang's heart is good, but we raise them, and their children and parents also raise them together? How long will it last? We raise them, what do the people who work at home think? Zheng Wei lowered his head, knowing that he was thinking about it again.

"People, no matter where they fall, ultimately rely on themselves! They now help Anjifang to work, three meals a day, Anjifang according to the amount of work they do, pay them, and when West Street is rebuilt, they will have a place to stay. Jintong patiently explained to Zheng Fang.

Zheng Yu looked at the sturdy men and women who were sweating like rain under the scorching sun, as well as many children and children, who also helped to load the sand and transport bricks. There was a seven or eight-year-old child who ran too fast, fell down, and immediately got up with his bones, without patting his clothes, hurriedly took the mud and sand scattered on the ground back to the basket with his hands, loaded it and rushed to the construction site.

"Do you have to work for such a young child?" Zheng Yu remembered that she sometimes changed several sets of clothes a day, and she had to hum for a long time to learn embroidery, and the task given by Jintong a day was to let her know four words and draw ten pages, so she was still crying tired. She bowed her head and pondered.

"A notice was posted at Anjifang, and if you complete the corresponding work every day and pass the inspection, you can get a bamboo stick. When West Street is built, 120 bamboo sticks can be exchanged for a large house, 80 bamboo sticks for a medium house, and 50 bamboo sticks for a small house. First come, first served, so naturally all the people in the family who can do it will come out to help! Jintong patiently explained to Zheng Fang. "Ordinary people have to work hard every day to get food and clothing, if there is a natural disaster, the day is not safe, maybe you will not see the sun tomorrow." ”

"Humph! You're going to have hundreds of people around you! Hum! The fat of the land! Looking at these folk sufferings, Zheng Yu has realized that he really does not know the blessings in the blessings, but Jintong's daily use is not worse than hers, so he despises Jintong indignantly.

Although she has been reading a book for a month, her horizons have been broadened. When the ground moved, I saw with my own eyes that Jintong managed the Hou Mansion internally and helped with disaster relief externally, and thousands of things were arranged in an orderly manner, arranging hundreds of subordinates like an arm. In addition, I listen to the subordinates praise Jintong on weekdays, and I actually admire her as a grandmother in my heart.

She knew that although Jintong was lukewarm to her on the surface, she had a good heart and bothered to plan a lot for her. But Shen Miaolian instilled bad words about Jintong in her for so long, and she felt awkward when she was close to this grandmother for a while. So sometimes I can't help but want to be sarcastic about Jintong.

Jintong was naturally too lazy to worry about a bear child, and deliberately teased her: "Sister Fang, do you know how many bricks, how much wood, and how much labor are needed to build a big house?" ”

"You still know it!" Zheng Yu retorted unconvinced.

Jintong proudly held his head high, his face was scolded, and he smiled without saying a word.

"Sister Fang, all the things needed for the reconstruction of West Street were written down by Jin Niangzi in different categories, and asked Mr. Gongsun and Wu An to help prepare them. Even the drawings for the reconstruction of West Street were drawn by Jin Niangzi, do you think she knows? Su Bai saw that no one was paying attention to them around them, and whispered to Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu has always respected Su Bai, so she naturally believed her words, so she glanced at Jintong even more unconvinced, and finally remained silent.

Almost in the middle of the unitary, the six masters and servants got into a carriage and went to the middle of the most prosperous and lively ten-mile long street in Shangjing to find something to eat. Wu An didn't dare to eat with them, and when he saw a cake stall on the side of the road, he said to Jintong and planned to buy a cake to fill his stomach.

Zheng Yu was curious about everything, so he squeezed over, and then rushed out again: "Mama, give me twenty eldest sons, I want to buy a flatbread with meat to eat, it smells so good!" ”

Jintong motioned to Su Bai, and Su Bai took Sister Fang's hand: "I'll take you to buy it, so as not to crowd it up!" ”

"Jin Niangzi, I'm afraid that this outside thing is not clean, right?" Mama Shi was worried.

"It doesn't matter, if someone else eats, Sister Fang can't eat it!"

Naturally, the sister of the cake table couldn't finish it, and if it was usual, she would have thrown it away. But I have seen so much today, and the children who are younger than her have to work by themselves to change their food. She was really reluctant to throw it, and only looked at Jintong a few. Wu Ping only ate a vegetarian cake of ten eldest sons, so he helped Sister Fang eat most of the remaining cakes.

A few people found a restaurant that looked quite exquisite for dinner, and Wu Ping continued to nibble on flatbread and watch the ox cart outside.

Jintong listened to the introduction of the shopkeeper, ordered a table of dishes, and the checkout was three dollars and six cents of silver. Zheng Yu quietly asked Jintong: "Mother, how many meals like this can you eat with one tael of silver?" ”

"Let's eat three meals for one or two silver."

"I have ten taels of silver a month, and I can eat thirty meals!"

"Are you planning to take Xin Yaxuan's people out to eat every day?" Jintong squinted at her.

"Hehehe!" Zheng Yu also wants to, but can she come out? "Mother, next time you can take me to see somewhere else, okay?"

Yo, this bear child will still be spoiled with her, it seems that she, the stepmother, should make rapid progress. Jintong pretended to think for a moment before replying: "If you behave better, I'll take you to the theater next time." ”

"Yes, yes!" Zheng Yu was so happy that she almost jumped up, Mama Shi hurriedly pressed her, now there are no four bags of grain in the way, the whole ox cart is empty, don't fall down.
