Chapter 153: Repair the New Mansion

Therefore, the more I think about it, the more I treat it with my heart.

In the afternoon of the same day, I asked Mama Jiao to inquire about the masonry team.

Coincidentally, I found out about the team that had just finished repairing the General's Mansion.

Speaking of this masonry team, there is also a special situation in Sui'an City.

It's not that ordinary people can form a random group and go everywhere to pick up work, but they must have both good craftsmen and reputations.

Therefore, the team that repaired the General's Mansion for Du Jingyi was the best choice.

It's just that Mrs. Wei is a little reluctant, and she always feels uncomfortable.

She wants to renovate this mansion on a large scale, and the "culprit" in it is Du Jingyi, if she hadn't set this fire, why waste so much money.

Therefore, anything that has a hook with her, Mrs. Wei does not want to enable.

However, this team has a good reputation, and the price quoted is less than that of other families.

Being able to do the best repair at a relatively competitive price is very tempting to Mrs. Wei.

Don't look at this profit, it doesn't sound like much, but if the total price is high, it will be a matter of tens of thousands of taels of silver.

With this money, she can buy more things.

Even if it doesn't move, it's good to leave it to the children in the future.

So after struggling for a few days, Mrs. Wei finally nodded and agreed to let the masonry team do the repairs.

It's just that there are too many courtyards and landscapes they have to repair this time, so it will take two or three more years.

So Shang Shichiro is still studying at the academy, and his grandchildren are not yet ready to need their own yard.

So, the whole family can wait.

After the news spread that the Guogong Mansion was going to be renovated on a large scale, the Fuwang Mansion understood the rules and sent 200,000 taels of silver in a hurry.

This money is not a small amount of money for the Guogong Mansion.

But for King Fu, it's not a big amount.

Aunt Shang personally brought money to the door, and there were a lot of promises that should be made, and the mistakes that should be admitted were even more beary for her son.

And she was very good to Shang Zhi and this nephew in the past, so the grievances between the two families can be regarded as officially resolved.

Otherwise, every time Shiro's daughter-in-law mentioned King Fu's mansion, she gritted her teeth with hatred.

With money, it's natural to start building.

The best materials are selected, and the craftsmen are also selected by the most experienced.

Measure first, then draw, and the details to how to arrange flowers and trees in each yard, this masonry team has been drawn.

When the drawings were delivered to Mrs. Wei, the more she looked at them, the more satisfied she became.

Now I feel that this decision is really wise.

So I told Mama Jiao and asked her to arrange it.

In order not to affect the normal life of the Yunjin Courtyard and the West Garden, a wall was specially built on the road near the East Garden and the North Garden, and a small door was opened.

The door was heavily locked with a big lock, and Mama Jiao, who had been in ten days and half a month, would go over to see the progress.

The rest of the time, it was all closed, and there was nothing unpleasant to say.

In this way, the lively end of the Guogong Mansion began to repair the new house.

On the other hand, everyone in the General's Mansion has already enjoyed the wonders of this new mansion.

In the conservatory of Xitang Courtyard, the layout is not much different from the daily room, but you can only know its comfort when you are in it.

Mrs. Xing sat on the round chair in the conservatory and said with great emotion.

"It's still comfortable in this house, it's like staying in our Jinling City, it won't dry out in winter, and you can enjoy the flowers, your mind is really clever."

As soon as these words came out, the sister-in-law Liu next to her couldn't help but nod in agreement when she heard it.

At first, she felt that it would be a waste to spend so much money just to build such a house.

Now that I'm used to it, I don't want to go out, so I smiled and said kindly.

"How else to say that the six brothers and sisters have more ideas, Xue Niang has complained before, saying that in the winter, there are still women with stiff hands, and now the embroidery frame has been moved to the greenhouse in her yard, I see that it is more diligent than in the summer heat."

For example, the three of them were laughing and chatting here, but Xue Niang didn't participate.

Instead, I was waiting for embroidery with all my heart.

Hearing this, Mrs. Xing couldn't help laughing, and took a piece of shortbread and ate it, her mouth was fragrant.

"No matter how big the wind and snow are, Liulang will come back in three or two days, the things are delicious, the house is warm, and there is a wife who is about to be born, and a child who is about to be born, tsk, if I were him, I was afraid that the gate of the general's mansion would not be able to get out."

With Mrs. Xing here, there is always laughter and laughter in this general's mansion.

Obviously, she is older and the two are better, but for some reason, Du Jingyi doesn't think she is an elder, but has a lot of intimacy.

Hearing her joke about herself, she also laughed and said.

"I guess, my uncle-in-law thinks the same way, otherwise he wouldn't have sent letters every half a month to urge, how many letters are there? Aunt~"

"Stinky girl, you also arrange me."

Mrs. Xing and her husband are not only good at home, but also have true feelings.

So after so many years together, we have lived very comfortably.

It has been more than two months since I went north this time, and I will stay for another two months, so it is no wonder that Lord Xing, who is far away in Jinling City, will write a letter to urge.

Every time he saw Lord Xing send someone to send a letter, Du Jingyi would think of a sentence.

The flowers bloom on the mo, and the lady can return slowly.

"It's a good thing that my uncle and aunt have a deep relationship, but I see that Cousin Zhao is also getting older, it's time to get married, I don't know if my aunt has a fancy to it?"

Sister-in-law Liu is now a wide-hearted and fat body.

Ping'er followed Xing Zhao to pick up people outside, and she didn't have to worry about it.

Xue Niang is diligent day and night, and she doesn't need to care.

Du Jingyi is only more than three months pregnant, and she is still early before giving birth, even if she has the heart, she has nowhere to go.

So she set her eyes on Xing Zhao's family affairs, which is probably the place where she feels that she has the most spare power now, so she will open her mouth like this.

Who knew that Mrs. Xing was worried.

"I'm annoyed when I talk about this, this kid doesn't know what's wrong, when he was in Jinling City in the past, he showed him more than a dozen young ladies and girls, and he didn't have a fancy to him."

"This time I came to Sui'ancheng, in fact, the queen mother also asked me in private, saying that it was good to show him a few words, but he didn't look at it."

"I really don't know if he's going to marry a fairy or if he's going to do it for the rest of his life, I don't know how to say it."

When sister-in-law Liu heard this, she felt that there seemed to be something she could contribute.

So he spoke.

"Anyway, when my grandmother arrives in a few days, there will be a housewarming banquet in this house, why don't you let Liulang and his younger siblings scatter some posts and go out, and everyone who has a son and a young lady in the family will come, so that it can show Cousin Zhao, and it is not abrupt."

"That's a good idea, don't forget Xiaoba, she doesn't have many days left, now look at a few more, and then you have to think about it again."

"Auntie, don't worry, we have so many pairs of eyes staring at it, we must choose a good family affair for Xue Niang!"
