"Let's go, let's go to Koizumino outside the city today."

Su Zijin took the housekeeper Uncle Lai and rode out of the city.

Since that day, she told Xue Baozhu that she was busy taking stock of the family property, and she didn't have a day off, the fields and mountains given by His Majesty, the Zhuangzi that her mother later purchased, and the most prosperous tax street shops in the city, these big accounts have been reviewed one by one, and now is the time to check on the spot.

The housekeeper Lai Quanfu is the son of Mama Lai, and when she was young, she was the escort of the young lady when she went out, and later the young lady became the general's wife, and he naturally became the housekeeper of the Su Mansion.

Now following the little lady, Lai Quanfu does not dare to slack off. The old lady still has some affection there, but the little lady here, he has no bottom, and the young lady doesn't like to laugh on weekdays, and does things at a glance, right is right, wrong is wrong, sometimes even if he raises his hand, he will clearly point out the fault of the people below, and then give grace to it, so that those slippery head managers are silent.

Thinking that a few days ago, when the young lady smiled at the Su steward who was in charge of the Su family's sacrificial field, and pointed out three errors and omissions in the account in one breath, as well as the abnormal planning of the layout of the sacrificial field, the sweat on the forehead of the Su steward, Lai Quanfu shuddered, and treated the young lady more and more unconsciously more and more respectfully.

You can't ride horses in the city, Lai Butler Xinma took out a half-sized book from his arms, and took advantage of this time before leaving the city to report the situation of Xiaoquanzhuang to the young lady.

It's not that he doesn't want to report in advance, but the young lady is too busy every day, and the accounts of the manor to be gone to the next day one day in advance, as well as the geographical location and planting of crops, rush to the scene to investigate on the second day, and score according to the performance of the head of the village at night when he comes back, and also look at the manor accounts of the second day, so repeatedly, so some of these small things must be prepared in advance. Thinking that a few days ago, the young lady asked who the head of the village was in Dongzhuang, how many people were below, her confused appearance, and the indifferent gaze of the young lady when she saw that she couldn't answer, Lai Quanfu couldn't wait to give it to herself. Since then, every time he goes out, taking advantage of the time before going out of the city, he will make the information in advance and report it to the young lady.

"Miss, the head of Xiaoquanzhuang is Hu Da, the nurse in the house a few years ago. A few years ago, when we first entered Kyoto, the outside was not very stable, and my wife once went out of the city to offer incense, and met a few people who were not long-eyed, and it was Hu Da who stopped those thieves with one arm. Later, Hu Da's arm couldn't use his strength, and it was too difficult to continue to work as a nurse, so his wife asked him to come to Xiaoquanzhuang to be a head of the village. In addition to 300 acres of fertile land, there is also a small spring mountain, there is a hot spring on the mountain, through the hot spring, some fresh fruits and vegetables will be produced in winter, in addition to supplying the house, it will also be sent to the restaurant in the city. There are eight people under him, and most of them are nursing homes for the injured and sick in the house. ”

Su Zijin nodded, "No wonder." ”

Seeing his young lady's sad and joyless appearance, Steward Lai didn't know why, and he sweated a little for Hu Da.

"Miss, it's here."

Restraining the horse, Lai Quanfu pointed to a Zhuangzi in the distance, and turned back to the young lady and said.

Su Zijin looked at the green and yellow wheat fields around him, and now in mid-April, it is the last period of wheat harvest, and there are barefoot tenants everywhere in the fields or dredging the ridges or watering and irrigating.

Su Zijin rode on a horse, along the dirt path leading to Zhuangzi straight to Zhuangzi, some people in the field noticed that Su Zijin also had a housekeeper, as well as the standard clothes of the guards in the house, so they bowed their heads vigilantly to show respect, not long after, the largest door in Zhuangzi opened, out of a tall and fat figure, bowed and trotted over, and greeted heroically from a distance, "Steward Lai, why did you suddenly visit today?" I've already ordered the cook to kill the chickens, and when I come, I'll have a peasant meal. Hahaha. ”

Lai Quanfu glanced at Miss's expression, then immediately dismounted, and said to Hu Da, who came over from afar, "Hu Da, I haven't seen Miss yet!" ”

Su Zijin sat upright on the horse, looked at Zhuangtou Hu Da patted his head, and said in annoyance, "Oh, look at my eyes, it's really useless, why didn't you recognize Miss?" At the beginning, my arm was useless, and I was placed in this small spring village by my wife, and at that time, the young lady was still held in my arms, and in the blink of an eye, I was already beaten like this. ”

If it were someone else, after hearing Hu Da's words of showing off his merits, I am afraid that he would have to get off the horse and be more respectful to him, but Su Zijin was impatient with those people who were sophisticated, so he only pretended to be arrogant, sat on the horse and said, "Okay, I'm tired all the way, I'm here today to explore the various granges for my mother, you take out the account book quickly, the time is urgent, and I have to visit Xiaoquan Mountain and the village's house in the afternoon." ”

Hu Da was stunned for a while, since he arrived in Xiaoquanzhuang, no, to be precise, since he saved his wife, no one has been so face-to-face for a long time. His politeness to others has also changed from sincere fear at the beginning to his current enjoyment.

Suddenly, a stunned young lady appeared, he couldn't stand it for a while, and even his face instantly fell.

"Hu Da! Didn't you hear what Miss said? ”

Lai Quanfu saw that Hu Da's face was wrong, and hurriedly reprimanded.

Hu Da came to his senses at this time, restrained his displeasure, turned his head and led the way, "Miss, please!" It's farther away than the other Zhuangzi in Kyoto, and the young lady has worked hard all the way, so let's go to Zhuangzi and rest first. ”

When Su Zijin heard this, he walked past Hu Da directly on a horse, jumped off the horse, and Su Zijin walked straight into the largest courtyard on Zhuangzi.

Hu Da and Lai Quanfu hurriedly followed behind, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw two people standing face to face, as if they were confronting, Hu Da's face changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward, "Why don't you go and clean up the hall for the main lady?" There is also urging the cook, and the chicken, duck and fish are ready to be served quickly! ”

After scolding his wife, who was slow to react and didn't have long eyes, Hu Da finally lowered his figure, bent down in front of Su Zijin and said, "Miss, don't be weird, country women can't be on the stage." Suddenly, when I saw the young lady's fairy face, I was stunned. ”

Su Zijin looked at this smiling and weak-hearted Zhuangtou, and did not debunk it, but only ordered lightly, "Don't clean up the house, just move a clean table and table, move the account book, and the tenants will call over, and I will do things in the courtyard." ”

"How does this work?" Hu Da shook his head, "This yard belongs to the master's family, we are just looking after the house for the master's family, when you arrive at Xiaoquanzhuang, you are going back to your own house, how can you not enter the house?" Sent back to Kyoto, although Mrs. will not blame, but our old Hu is not happy to go. ”

Su Zijin was too lazy to take care of Zhuangtou's chanting and fighting, and if he meant something, he looked directly at the guards behind him.

Some of the guards were brought back from Shu County, and their eyes and hard work far surpassed those of the Fuzhong Nursing Hospital, or rather, they listened to Su Zijin's words more and acted according to Su Zijin's eyes.

They are also the most envied existence of the Fuzhong Nursing Hospital, after all, the Shu County trade route dividends, they get a lot every year.

At present, these guards entered the house under the leadership of Hou Yi, and in Hu's wide eyes, they moved out of the table, cleaned it, and placed it under the big tree in the courtyard to shade the sun. Then from the pocket he carried, he took out pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other things and looked at Hu Da.

"Zhuangtou, where is the account book, if you can't move it, we'll help you move it."

was teased by Jia Wenxin and Guo Yixuan's connivance and disgraced.

Framed by these two people. The reputation was damaged, and Su Jiaojiao's mother wanted to marry Su Jiaojiao casually, but was stopped by Su Zijin. Su Jiaojiao broke out, angrily reprimanded Su Zijin, and broke out.

lose face

You just look down on me in your bones.

Su Zijin nodded in acknowledgement.

The two men are honest with each other.
