People say that they are close to each other and are close to husband and wife, and now Wang Xifeng is sitting in Xiaoyuezi, and all the things in the inner courtyard are left alone, and Mrs. Wang is so worried that she is like something.

Zhou Ruijia pushed the flower oil in his hand, rubbed it carefully on Mrs. Wang's neck, and did not forget to say in his mouth: "Since the old lady and the second grandmother will be raised, Mrs., you have not had a good day of rest, which really makes the slave and maid feel distressed." ”

Mrs. Wang was half-leaning on the couch, seeing Lin Zhixiao following behind Jia Zheng and coming in with the account book, she sat up straight, raised her thin eyebrows, and smiled on her face, "The master is here." He nodded again and asked Lin Zhixiao: "Are they all settled?" ”

"If you go back to your wife, you will explain it according to your wife's instructions." Lin Zhixiao was respectful, and his appearance was no different from the courtesy in front of Wang Xifeng and his wife in the past.

Mrs. Wang heard him say solemnly, and the smile on her face was also a little restrained, and she opened her lips and said: "I haven't been in charge of these chores for many years, if it weren't for the advice of Brother Feng, I wouldn't have thought of this layer." ”

After thinking about it, he said: "You husband and wife also came with the first masters, and I am not afraid to confess to you, the old lady above will earn a future for his children and grandchildren, and he will be in the future generations, so that we can still enjoy wealth and prosperity, which is a great blessing." ”

Mrs. Wang closed the account book, raised her hand to stop Zhou Rui's movements, picked up a string of prayer beads on the table, and looked at Jia Zhengdao, who was drinking tea and silent: "We can't control the East Mansion, we just say that our house, according to the old practice, is dotted up and down every year and eats, wears and chews, and if you want not to fall into place, you always need eighty or ninety thousand taels of silver to support it." ”

Seeing that Jia Zheng was silent, he looked at the past leisurely, and said softly: "Master, don't blame me for not listening to what I say, last year the Grange only received sixty percent, and if it is still like this this year, I am afraid that our family will not be able to hold up for two or three years." ”

Jia Zheng pinched his eyebrows, his face was impatient, and it took a while to move.

"Then let the people below make up for the shortcomings of the previous year at the end of the year?" I saw him take a sip of tea and take out a book of flower names from his sleeve.

Mrs. Wang took it, and when she saw Baoyu's name, her eyes were full of puzzlement.

"You also said that according to the old practice, after the palace concubine was provincial, in order to ease her homesickness, she allowed her family to enter the palace once a month. Now that the old lady is sick, she has to bother her to go and ask her what she means, whether this arrangement is appropriate. ”

The children of the jade generation on the roster are all listed in their positions, and they do not forget to write their own good or existing fame. Then a few masters who are still idle in the literary generation are also listed, which is obviously to ask Yuan Chun to look at it and pick a few useful assignments.

The two of them don't have any big ideas, and now they can get together and talk about our family, Jia Zheng listened to it, and his heart was a little ironing. It's good that his wife is not like the wife of Lian'er's family, how is your Jia Mansion and how is she, where is there a family?

That's all it takes for now.

Where a big family with flourishing branches will inevitably give birth to some unsuccessful children, but as long as there are good branches in each generation, everyone's strength will be used in one place, and it will not make people unable to get by.

This is exactly how Jia Fu should be.

The house has its own worries, and the worries of these masters have not affected little girls like Yunzhu and them.

After a few days, I saw that the accident of the cinnabar red paper painting villain has not been mentioned on the surface to deal with it, and it is only considered to have been solved in private.

"Grandma Lai has spoken, contracts can be assigned everywhere in this courtyard, and there is no need to spend rent in advance, the land should be produced, the house will receive thirty percent, and the rest is your own!" Xiaohong's heart was very moved, she loved to eat fresh lotus seeds, and knew that the small treasury of Yunzhu was rich, so she privately picked it up, wanting to work together to wrap up the lotus pond behind Yihong Courtyard.

Yunzhu didn't know anything about farming, and he didn't know anything about serving flowers and trees, so he asked: "Then have you asked Uncle Lin, does he agree?" ”

"If Uncle Lin agrees, I'll do it with you." Yunzhu is embarrassed to refuse directly, Daguanyuan is a pilot project for the reform of the land contract responsibility system in Jiafu, which says that there is no oil and water, who will believe it?

But the interlacing is like a mountain, and the matter has been lively all morning, and now there is no one who has signed up.

Everyone was watching.

"Ask at my house?" Xiaohong paused and said to Yunzhu: "Recently, the second grandmother sat in Xiaoyue'er, and my mother's errands have been much less, you go with me, let's ask." After she finished speaking, she sorted out the errand in her hand, and told Qifei for an hour's falsehood, saying that she would take Yunzhu to her house to get some things.

As he spoke, he dragged her out of the pantry under Yunzhu's admiring gaze. After half a cup of tea, the two cleaned up a stack of snacks, and then wiped the sweat on their heads and went to the Lin family.

This is the face of the child, which can be used as a fake note.

Before entering the courtyard of the Lin family, I listened to the busy sound in the courtyard, because I was holding a snack with ice skin in my hand, I didn't care about the shouting in the courtyard, the two pushed the door one after the other, and saw the little red lady pulling a huge bear skin.

Several people stretched out the wet fur together, and hemp ropes were put around them, and they crumbled each other hard, and they were about to support it on the shelf.

"Aunt Lin is good." Yunzhu smiled softly and said hello, and then sat under the eaves with Xiaohong and watched everyone.

"Honghong is back? Ah, Xiaoyun! The fresh animal skin is soaked finely, and it also exudes a thick fishy smell, and the little red lady hurriedly said: "Hurry up, you two go into the house, don't let this dirty water get wet, fishy!" ”

Xiaohong muttered and pulled Yunzhu into the house, "It seems that Zhuangzi sent something, why did he also send raw skins, and he had to control the skins in charge of the heavens and the earth, he was really tired." ”

"Yikes! Why is there so much game? Mother! Where's my dad? Xiaohong stuffed a plate of wild berries into Yunzhu's arms and asked loudly.

Yunzhu held the tray, and saw that the small fruit was red and gorgeous, and a twist was a bubble of sweet water. ”

She boasted, and stuffed one into Xiaohong's mouth.

"Your father is still in the house, come back later. It just so happens that you two stay one more night, and the venison sent from Zhuangzi, our family has half of it, and we will roast the venison at night to eat! ”

The crabs in March and April are not fat, but the Lin family doesn't know where to get a basket. I saw Aunt Lin seal the crab in the jar, pour wine into it, and sprinkle several handfuls of powder into it, the aroma of various seasonings burst out in the room, and Yun Zhu couldn't help but show a little awe.

"Can you eat this?"

"Yes." Xiaohong opened a packet of powdered sugar and poured it into the jar of pickled crab.

Aunt Liu is very affectionate to the children in private, not like the stupid goose in front of Sister Feng in the house, she smiled and said: "Xiaoyun is from Chengdu Mansion, I don't know how to eat this Jinling, this little crab, it has been pickled and made into crab sauce, it is the most fragrant!" ”

Seeing the two little girls rushing to help, Aunt Lin thought for a while: "That skin has to be dried for two days before it can be nitrated." Now in the spring, our village sent some chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, most of them were very thin, so I asked them to bring them back, leaving only this bear skin and some food, which shows that the villagers are also very sad. ”

She didn't hide the child's family affairs, but when she saw that Yunzhu was there, she picked out some light things to tell them to the two of them, and at the end she didn't forget to summarize: "It's good to do errands, don't make the masters annoyed." ”

When Lin Zhixiao came back, he saw a few people bent over their waists and sharpening bamboo sticks, and the broken wood slag all over the ground looked like snow. ”

After speaking, I saw Yunzhu raise her head, and the little girl called Uncle Lin affectionately, Lin Zhixiao smiled: "The errand is to combine work and rest." ”

Saying that, he asked his wife what to eat tonight, he really ran all day, and even his head was big, the two of them hesitated about their intentions, Yunzhu looked at Xiaohong, Xiaohong pushed Yunzhu, where can the little daughter's family escape the adults?

"Xiaoyun is young, what kind of tiramisu is very popular in Beijing, Honghong also learns it, and she is stupid every day, which really worries me and your mother." Lin Zhixiao made a tentative speech, don't look at Yunzhu is a few years younger than Honghong, except for being more introverted, it is really not bad for an adult everywhere.

My own stupid girl, it's really worrying to see it.

"It's all the uncle and aunt who bothered to run it, it's not that the coffee beans have been replaced with tea powder, the taste and style are better than before, it can be seen that you two are really experts in making dim sum!" Yun Zhu hesitated after speaking, looked at Xiaohong's big eyes that kept flickering, and said embarrassedly: "We came today because we have questions and want to ask Uncle Lin to solve their doubts, I, I ......."

Yun Zhu turned around and ran into the house, opened the small backpack he had changed into, and took out a rough map that he had drawn from it, and when he looked closely, it was the scene around Yihong Courtyard.

"Uncle Lin and aunt know, today the house spread the word, saying that after dividing the landscape gardens in the Grand View Garden into areas, they asked everyone to contract to manage their own harvests, and we ...... "Yunzhu is also five or six distracted, who let her not develop farming skills, if she doesn't make money in the future, but she has to pay rent to the house out of her own pocket!"

The husband and wife glanced at each other, and Aunt Lin held a girl in one hand and asked, "But is it exciting?" ”

Xiaohong nodded like pounding garlic, salivating to share how attractive the fresh lotus seeds are.

Yun Zhu nodded hesitantly, although he made a bold guess in his heart, the government would not watch the contractor mess around, no rent, and technical guidance, it is difficult to say how much money is earned, but it should not be a loss.

"This matter, it was originally proposed by the third girl to the second grandmother in private, the atmosphere of laziness and attack in the garden is too heavy, you fight for me for needles and threads, there are complaints everywhere every day, if you two follow the contract, I am afraid that the quarrel will not stop in the future." As he spoke, he looked at his wife and daughter.

Aunt Lin said: "The quarrels in the Grand View Garden are more than the bad things in the East and West combined, only Tian and Zhu two mothers, seeing that Lai's mother's garden can be produced, there is no less benefit of revealing the garden in private, so the two of them also mentioned their names early, but the three girls have not nodded in agreement." ”

"Why don't you agree?" Xiaohong asked suspiciously, the people below responded positively, and they were old servants for many years, so it stands to reason that their ability to do things should be no problem.

Seeing that the couple didn't speak, Yunzhu pondered for a moment, trying to understand the problem from the perspective of economics.

The change in the contract situation will indirectly affect the transaction costs, which sounds very similar to the system of package production to households in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Yunzhu was amazed at Tanchun's acumen in the economic field, how many people in the house underestimated the three girls?

He said: "If two people are asked to subcontract, it is difficult to be transparent about the benefits, and the things that are deceived and concealed will inevitably only increase." In this case, the three girls must hope that more people will contract. In this way, if part of the right to use the garden is distributed to the subordinates, and a fixed commission will be charged in the future, not only will the number of people be powerful, but it will also be able to expand the scope of mutual supervision, so that more rent can be collected. ”

"In the end, there is a golden house in the book, and we have never thought of this layer that Yunzhu said since we came to deal with money." Lin Zhixiao changed his smiling expression and said solemnly, "It can be seen that everyone looks down on the third girl, and she is so far-sighted at a young age." ”

"But I don't want to quarrel with Mother Zhu......" Xiaohong pursed her mouth and buried her head in her mother's arms, looking lonely. When I was young, I followed Lao Guogong to the front line, although she was only mixed in the battalion, but her violent temper was unmatched.

The quarrel is even more neutral, who dares to steal the limelight?

But who told the Lin family to love the child.

Early the next morning, Yunzhu was in the pantry, and heard Xiaohong say happily: "Good news, good news!" ”

Without waiting for Yunzhu to answer, she shouted again: "The third girl said, for the sake of fairness, in five days, the land will be selected by lot, and the size of the yard contracted by everyone should not be greater than the inspection time of a pillar of incense, otherwise wouldn't it be to delay their own errand and press on others?" ”

This hates to be in line with Tanchun's temperament, just do what he says, without dragging the mud and water, but ......

"A pillar of incense, we can't finish the lotus pond, just wrap a small piece?" Yunzhu saw that Xiaohong was excited, and had to pour cold water, the smallest lotus pond in the Grand View Garden did not cover an area of less than one acre, both of them were of ordinary size, and a pillar of incense could not run far.

But this is indeed good news, it has hit the monopoly position of Tian and Zhu's two mothers, and there will inevitably be a lot less jealousy in private in Daguanyuan.

"It's okay to wrap a small piece, just eat it with lotus seeds." But then she became depressed again, the lotus pond is a popular place, lotus leaves, lotus flowers and lotus roots are an input, and the fish and shrimp in the water are another input, and there must be many people with red eyes.

Yun Zhu saw that she really liked it, so she said: "Since the third girl said that the lottery, then let's go to the lottery, no matter where the lottery goes, careful care will inevitably produce something, if you draw to the lotus pond, naturally everyone is happy." If you can't draw it, wouldn't it be better if you exchanged what you have from the ground for lotus seeds? ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiaohong became even more depressed.

I sobbed for a long time before I pulled her and said, "My father always said that I am not as good as you, I see, my ability to drill the horns is much better than yours." ”

Are you praising me or hurting me, Yunzhu is helpless.

As soon as the new policy of Tanchun came out, there were people who inspected the field every day in the Grand View Garden, and there were many people who ran around the garden in their spare time, "This is to test how far they can run with a pillar of incense!" ”

Qi Hail said firmly.

Yihong Courtyard is also very lively, Jia Baoyu, as Tanchun's half-brother, the subordinates observed the words and colors, reported all the names, and made a posture of supporting the three girls.

Among them, Yunzhu Xiaohong is the most active, one wants to eat to make money, and the other wants to eat lotus seeds.
