"There's no one at home at this point, but I have the key!"

Yuan Tai took out a bunch of keys from the burden he was carrying in a flash.

"I still have the key to my cousin's house, and they're just afraid that you won't be able to get in."

Yuan Taichu unlocked the lock and pushed open the door, leading the way in front of his head.

"The yard hasn't had time to be cleaned up, and it looks relatively old, and this is the best yard I bought at the beginning.

The small two in, a total of eighty taels of silver, is already a very cheap price.

This is all the friendship price given by Master Ma, otherwise it will cost at least three hundred taels of silver. ”

Ziyu and his party followed into the main courtyard behind, a few flowers that had broken were faintly visible among the weeds, and the weeds in the garden had already invaded the courtyard.

The paint of the pillars under the corridor is peeling off, and the bluestone pavement is stained with a lot of mud and unevenness, and it looks like it has not been taken care of for a long time.

"When my eldest brother first bought it, there were a few leaks in the roof, and I couldn't even find a craftsman in the city.

It's still the tile that your eldest cousin climbed up to pick up, and the overhaul will have to wait until after the autumn harvest.

No one is idle now, and he is busy all day long.

Since the sister-in-law and the two nieces and daughters-in-law returned to Daxiawan, they should have eaten at the mansion and then went home to rest. ”

Ziyu listened to Yuan Taichu talk about trivial things in life, and it sounded quite kind, just like those women in Daxiawan came to her to nag.

"Hahaha!"

Ziyu thought of comparing Yuan Taichu to a woman, and couldn't help but laugh.

Yuan Taichu glanced back at her for no apparent reason, thinking that he had to build a delicate courtyard for Ziyu in Ronghe Mansion.

Lest this skinned girl joke that the house is bad, how can she do if she doesn't come to live at home.

"Uncle, I don't mean anything else, if you really want to hear it, you can tell you.

But you can't scold me, let alone beat me. Ziyu hurriedly clarified for herself.

"Okay, I promise not to scold you, let alone beat you." Yuan Taichu assured solemnly.

"Hahaha, the women of Daxiawan also like to talk about the short things in the family to me.

Just like you just said, you are not allowed to move your mouth, let alone your hands.

It means that the brother-in-law feels very kind and has the feeling of being in Daxia Bay. ”

Ziyu saw someone's face change, and immediately jumped behind Libai.

"Forget it, I don't remember villains."

Yuan Taichu pointed out the location of the kitchen to Peony and Chef Qiu, and then sat down in the main hall.

"I'm only staying in Dujiang Mansion for one day, what are you going to do?"

"Uncle, you take the boat and go first, and we will stay in Dujiang Mansion for two or three days.

I am going to go to Xingyuan Province by land to learn about the construction and agriculture situation in various places.

This trip is equivalent to an on-the-spot visit, and it is necessary to carry out a systematic plan for the three prefectures. ”

Ziyu glanced at Libai, this guy definitely wouldn't go separately from her.

Not to mention Peony and Chef Qiu, it was enough to bring two more guards to drive the carriage on the way.

"Okay, then I'll add some fresh water and vegetables tomorrow and set off.

The bandits on several mountains have been cleared down the mountain, but they still have to guard against some people with bad intentions. ”

Ziyu nodded in response, the chatter of relatives is what people often call a sweet burden!

Ziyu, who has always disliked trouble, thinks that this feeling is not bad, and it is completely different from Baiyi Baishun who is from Baibai.

…

"Uncle, transfer twenty of the guards on my ship to you, it may not be so easy to trade in Shangdufu."

Ziyu thought that in order to prohibit population loss in the southern country, she would definitely take some measures against Daxia Bay.

"Uncle can save it, he will watch it!"

Yuan Taichu had been in Ronghe Mansion for a while, and he had clearly felt that Nanguo was targeting them, but he still wanted to give it a try.

While a few people were talking, Peony brought hot water for washing.

"Miss, Chef Qiu is already preparing dinner, but there are not enough chopsticks."

"Ouch, look at my memory, I forget such an important thing as soon as I speak.

Wait, I'll go to the front street and buy it. ”

Yuan Tai first mentioned peony, and then remembered that he had not bought many important daily necessities, so he hurriedly got up and walked out.

"Uncle, I'll go with you, you don't know what Ziyu likes."

Libai got up and followed, and Ziyu hurriedly handed out a bulging purse.

There's no way, Libai is a person with a cleaner face than his pocket, and he often doesn't even have a penny on his body, let alone with her.

…

Ziyu sat in the main hall, and threw a piece of fresh rabbit meat to the four eagles for a while.

The four eagles who ate sea fish on the boat every day stood in front of Ziyu eagerly, and Yuan Bao and Tongyuan opened their mouths to ask.

"Come one by one, don't eat alone!"

Ziyu will not be accustomed to two small eagles, throwing them one by one, if anyone dares to grab one more, next time it will definitely not have its share.

Ziyu found that the ingots and copper yuan that were in a hurry to flutter their wings, and the big hairs on the wings had grown a few pieces.

Carefully compared with Xiao Jin, it is estimated that the two little guys are about to learn to fly.

The four eagles with a big appetite can kill the amount of six rabbits with one pillar of incense.

Nowadays, a pot of sliced rabbit meat is prepared in the space every day, and don't think about pork and mutton.

Even if there is a large amount, Ziyu will not give the four eagles to eat those meats, isn't it fragrant to keep them for themselves!

…

At dusk, Yuan's house became lively.

Yuan Taicheng, Yuan Yuzhi, Xiao Yingyong, Zhang Anhe, Ma Weiyuan, Zhuang Ziang, Tie Dan, heard that Ziyu was coming, and they all gathered at Yuan's house.

Not only can you rub the good skills of the imperial chef, but also because of the purple jade.

The dishes on the table are all from Chef Qiu's craftsmanship, both light and heavy, and they are all ingredients brought out by Chef Qiu.

There are fish and meat, otherwise with the current situation in Dujiang Mansion, it is really not easy to make a hearty meal so quickly.

"Uncle Qiu, you and Peony sit down and eat together, they are people who know each other and don't pay so much attention to it."

Ziyu saw that Chef Qiu and Peony were about to retreat, and shouted to stop the two.

"Miss, just let us both go!

Besides, if you want to talk about things, we won't be at ease eating.

In this way, Peony and I set the table in the hallway to eat, and the dishes were set aside. ”

Chef Qiu was touched by the forgiveness of the castle master, but he couldn't go beyond it, and he had to keep his duty as a subordinate.

"Oh well! If you like to eat, keep a copy for yourself.

Peony also went down to eat, washed up early and went to the wing room to rest after a tired day, and didn't care about the rest of the matter. ”

"Miss Xie!"

"Castle Master, you're this!"

Ma Weiyuan gave Ziyu a thumbs up in admiration, there were many times when he couldn't be so good to his subordinates.

"The two of them are worth it, they could have kept Daxiawan without having to endure this hardship, but they chose to follow me tirelessly.

If you call them back and forth, I'm really sorry for their sincerity.

The human heart is the flesh of the flesh, and I have to set an example for you. ”

Ziyu said with a smile, her goodness is not unconditional, she must be treated separately.

…

Ten people sat around a large dining table, which of course had been borrowed from the government.

Because they wanted to talk about things, no one mentioned drinking.

After the halfway through the dish, everyone had the heart to say what they were responsible for.
