Chapter 265: To Zhuangzi
Along the widest dirt road between the granges, the carriages were rickety, and on the way to the entrance of the Zhuangzi, there were already people from the Zhuangzi who came to greet them.
Outside the gates.
"To the second young master, the second young grandmother, please be safe."
A not-so-neat greeting sounded, and a handful of people led by Zhuangtou Gu Yougui and his wife all looked a little nervous and excited on their faces.
Gu Wenxuan, who was the first to get out of the carriage, saw that they looked shy, with a sincere smile on their faces, and they didn't dislike them, and they also brought tenants to crowd in front, almost scaring people.
Like the Zhuangzi in Fucheng, the fields here were still leased to the original tenant farmers, and the land rent was changed to the same forty-six as in Zhoujia Village.
It can be said that compared with the fifty-fifty division of the original owner of Zhuangzi, it is not an ordinary kindness, and it is just such a short period of time, and tenants have rushed to kowtow.
Gu Wenxuan had been staying in the Zhou Mansion in Zhoujia Village before, and Zhou Banxia occasionally came to Zhuangzi to take a carriage back and forth quietly, and this time he rushed to thank them when he heard that they had arrived.
Fortunately, there are not many tenants, just a dozen families, and not all of them come, most of them are old and young masters who bring one or two children to thank them.
Wait to walk into the courtyard gate.
The yard is still very clean and tidy.
It can be seen that Gu Yougui and his wife still put a lot of effort into taking care of Zhuangzi here.
Because the original owner of Zhuangzi was busy going south to take up his post, many things were too late to be properly handled, especially this grange involved close to Zhoujia Village.
Before, it was to please his husband (Zhou Huan), and many things such as furniture, porcelain, pots and pans were left directly.
In this way, in addition to the real money spent on buying this grange, it allowed the two of them to take advantage of a small advantage.
Don't worry about having to instruct Gu Yougui before leaving, and there is no room for the meeting.
Let Zhiming accompany Gu Yougui and his wife to take someone to help everyone carry their luggage and settle down, Gu Wenxuan and Zhou Banxia couldn't wait to hurry into the house to drink some water or wash their faces to relax for a while.
It's really a bumpy ride along the way, and I've had enough of it a long time ago.
Especially today, when I saw my destination, I rushed to the road as soon as dawn broke.
Not to mention the carriage, even if it is a modern car that drives for a day, people can't hold it.
Not to mention that the ancient roads were still dirt roads, full of potholes, and when the speed was fast, it was so bumpy that it almost fell apart.
The quality of the carriage is no problem, but even if you can lie down inside, you are really tired enough at the end of the day.
The two of them went directly into one of the small courtyards, Zhou Banxia hurriedly wiped his face, didn't bother to change his dress, and collapsed on the kang of the main landlord without saying a word.
This small courtyard is the cross courtyard of the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law of the original owner of Zhuangzi, with three upper rooms, three wing rooms on each side, and a back cover room at the back.
Zhou Banxia came to take a fancy to the location and scenery of this cross-courtyard before, and asked Gu Yougui to hire someone to renovate this small courtyard a little in advance.
Now it is the beginning of summer in May, it is the time when the flowers are in full bloom, I don't know who planted the flowers, and when the windows are open, there is a burst of floral fragrance into the nose.
After Gu Wenxuan washed up, he changed his clothes and came out of the clean room, and saw Zhou Banxia closing his eyes and frowning his nose, not knowing what he liked to smell, and he was very happy.
He also sniffed vigorously, "Pomegranates, chrysanthemums, peach blossoms?" ”
"No, it seems that the begonias have blossomed and borne fruit." As soon as the words came out, Zhou Banxia laughed out loud first, "I'm hungry, I want to eat Shaguo." ”
"That's not very much, at least in August and September, there will be fruit on the market." As he spoke, Gu Wenxuan leaned close to her ear, "Have you eaten all the food inside?" ”
But no, I didn't think I could eat a few, so when I remembered it, I secretly took one out and tasted it, and the begonia fruit and peaches were somehow eaten.
Zhou Banxia squeezed his eyes at him sideways, and also whispered back to him, "It's all half green and half red on the tree, it should be soon, ten days at most." ”
Yes, this means that the fruit on the two fruit trees in the front yard of the villa is not ripe enough.
Gu Wenxuan pushed her and lay down beside her, "Where is the backyard?" ”
Zhou Banxia reacted very quickly and closed his eyes to "look" inside, focusing on the backyard, "Not yet, it's the same old way, it seems that you can't see it until you go to Zhending Mansion." ”
Hearing this, Gu Wenxuan was not disappointed, based on his speculation, he didn't think that the second trip to this side would reveal the remaining half of the open space in the backyard.
Not before, and definitely not now, but he thought in a hurry that if half of the white mist in the open space dissipated, his daughter-in-law would have no shortage of fruit to eat in the future.
Now, not to mention that there is no land to plant in the front yard except for the original two fruit trees, and there is nothing to plant when a soil basket is transported in, it is the backyard.
The backyard is also very evil.
Half of the open space in the backyard is now a concrete floor that can't be smashed.
He remembers that the cement used at that time could not have been so strong, even though it was of the best quality.
"It's okay, it's not a child, I'm joking.
Lie down for a while, and as soon as you are ready to eat, you will go to Zhou's mansion after eating. It's strange, why hasn't Dae come yet? ”
"It should be almost there, he must have been temporarily held back by something, otherwise he would have arrived here and waited. When melons and fruits are on the market, let's stock up more. ”
Can't forget her fruit-hungry can't forget? Zhou Banxia replied amusedly, yes, and asked him that the Zhuangzi of Zhending Mansion was going to be transferred to the Shunyi Dart Bureau.
This trip out is Yun Chengming's dart, although he did not mention the transfer of the Zhuangzi of Zhending Mansion this time, but Yun Chengming also said that he was going to Zhending Mansion on his return trip?
With the establishment of the workshop, now more than the pancreas have been contracted by their Shunyi Dart Bureau to transport the work of Fucheng from Qinghe Village.
The goods transported by the Zhao family to Zhending Mansion were also handed over to them by the Shunyi Dart Bureau.
Uncle Yun said that the courtyard in the city over Zhending Mansion was easy to buy, and Zhuangzi couldn't find it.
After all, the dart board does not need to choose a good location in the city, as long as it is big, close to the city gate, but it is really difficult to start with Zhuangzi.
Like the Zhending Mansion Zhuangzi she purchased, she said that she sent Gu Dachang to buy it, but in fact, if there was no senior management to make peace with her, no one would really care about her as a village woman.
To put it mildly, don't say that the province is really Dingfu, it is the territory of Dingzhou Mansion, even if she becomes a lady of Juren, there is no uncle behind her, and Zhuangzi will not sell her.
Even if she smashes it with silver, she has to see if she can hold it if she can buy it, she has no power or power, and when the time comes, any taxes and any people in charge will come out.
Like the dirty things in the simplest tax per acre, why are the private fields of the Shengdou small people mostly in the fields, but the scholars and doctors are basically in the fields?
It is generally graded because of the field assignment.
The taxes that need to be paid are very different between Ueda and Shimoda.
In order to evade taxes, it is the most common and common means of tax evasion for powerful people.
Like this Zhuangzi's field, she is not cheating.
is still according to the level of Tianfu reported by the original owner of Zhuangzi, but if someone wants to measure it, it will be difficult?
