Chapter 461: I want her to learn to be a housekeeper
The three of them talked again, and Qiu Rongrong also told them about the order placed by the Internal Affairs Office, and then they knew that it was the reason why King Fu pulled the strings.
Qiu Rongrong finally understood Wen Xiuyi's sentence, why this favor is owed more and more.
Anyway, it's all owed, pay it back slowly, there will always be a time to pay it back.
Wen Xiuyi was still a little worried.
"You've taken so many orders, have you done it?"
Qiu Rongrong raised her head confidently: "Father-in-law, you don't have to worry about this, you definitely can, with the sewing machine, the output will rise sharply, and I have collected two more Zhuangzi to raise ducks and geese, and the output will not be unable to keep up." ”
In terms of business, Wen Xiuyi doesn't understand either.
"Anyway, you just have to know it in your own hearts, I'll go back and rest, you two can talk by yourself." Wen Xiuyi got up and walked out, standing at the door and stunned for a moment, he hadn't even remembered where his yard was.
It's also a trouble that this house is too big, or their small temple, and a few rooms can hear it when they roar.
Fortunately, Lu He has been guarding the door, and when he saw him come out, he greeted him.
"Master, are you going back to rest?" Lu He was actually panicked in his heart, they followed his uncle when their family was mud-legged, compared to those well-trained little guys, it was obvious that he had no advantage, but he had a loyal heart, which no one could compare.
Wen Xiuyi asked him in a low voice: "Lu He, do you remember how to walk in the courtyard?" ”
Lu He smiled: "Remember, you can rest assured and boldly go, and the slave will follow you." ”
Wen Xiuyi raised his eyebrows at him, hehe, sensible.
In this way, Wen Xiuyi took Lu He away, and when he reached a junction, Lu He would remind Wen Xiuyi in a whisper, and then let him go back to his new nest.
Wen Yao accompanied Qiu Rongrong to the courtyard arranged for her, next door to Wen Yao, there was no plaque on the yard, it turned out to be there, but it was in disrepair, so she asked the child steward to demolish it and prepare to make a new one, and the name of this courtyard also depends on how many masters themselves think of it.
Along the way, Qiu Rongrong also discovered that this house is big, the style is magnificent, but it is old, and many places have to be repaired and rectified.
"There are a lot of places to be repaired, and these flowers and plants have to be taken care of again, and my father-in-law is also an earl now, if outsiders see that our house is not as good as the furnishings of an official's house, how can it be done."
Along the way, Qiu Rongrong babbled about these things.
I think that back then, when she was in the Xie family, she took care of the Xie family up and down in an orderly manner, that is, the flowers and plants in the yard were all rare varieties, which was nothing more than throwing money.
"In the past few days, I asked Qiaoyan to go to the shop to keep an eye on it, and I will stay at home to teach you how to take care of the house." Qiu Rongrong decided, the business now has an order from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which can be said to be stable, this signed an order from the palace, as long as they don't die every year in the future, it will be enough for her and Wen Yao to eat for a lifetime.
In contrast, it is important to arrange it at home first, after all, I heard Wen Yao say that in a few days, I will have to entertain hundreds of civil and military officials.
You can't entertain guests in such rags.
Wen Yao wanted to say that she didn't want to learn housekeeping at all, but she couldn't stand Qiu Rongrong keeping saying that she was the only hostess in this family, and although Qiu Rongrong was a righteous daughter, she was an outsider in the end.
So the next day, when Wen Yao was pulled out of the bed by Qiu Rongrong, she already felt that the sky was falling.
With Mama Shi here, she is not afraid that the subordinates in the house will be disobedient, Qiu Rongrong is vigorously arranging the repair of the house, and at the same time throwing a lot of money into the outside to buy, she has nothing now, and has a lot of money.
Fortunately, the original furniture ornaments are all good mahogany, and it is like new when repainted, but the flowers and plants, vase ornaments, tea sets and chopsticks, all have to be replaced with new ones.
As soon as he finished arranging the previous things, when he turned around, he saw Wen Yao sitting in the hall and wandering outside the world with an absent-minded look.
Qiu Rongrong: "......"
Qiu Rongrong explained that Mama Shi kept an eye on the people below to do things, and she returned to the front hall and couldn't help but reach out and poke Wen Yao's head.
"You, you, I'm teaching you, but you're wandering in the world, what are you thinking?"
"Huh?" Wen Yao lazily came back to her senses, leaned on her and coquettishly said: "Good sister, isn't this you, you can help me take care of it first." ”
Qiu Rongrong was coaxed by her, so she could only helplessly say: "For the time being, I can help you take care of the Earl's Mansion first, after all, I just came, and it is unlikely that you can get started with many things now, but you have to promise me that you must learn in the future, you know?" The father-in-law is alone, there is no housewife in the family, you are the only mistress of the family, who do you care about these things? ”
Wen Yao leaned on her and muttered softly: "You say, can you find a mother for us." "Isn't there a mistress?
Qiu Rongrong was taken aback by her words, but still said: "Have you ever heard of it, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, and there are fewer cases of steprooms bullying the girls in the main house?" ”
Wen Yao didn't know why such a thought suddenly popped into his mind just now, and that gentle face appeared.
She hurried to shake this dangerous thought out of her head.
If she is going to die, she actually has such a bold idea, if she lets Professor Wen know, her ass is afraid that it will bloom.
"I'll just say it casually, casually, hehe." Wen Yao hurriedly fooled her words.
Fortunately, Qiu Rongrong won't really take it seriously, so this matter is over.
In the afternoon of the same day, the sound of banging and banging could be heard everywhere in Wenchangbo's mansion, and Qiu Rongrong was very satisfied with the efficiency of these people.
Sure enough, there is still money that can make the devil grind.
The next day, the rewards in the palace came down, the queen mother gave it, the emperor gave it, and even the third princess sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, after all, Guan Shengrui has really learned a lot more well-behaved and sensible in the Wen family these days.
Immediately afterwards, the Jin family steward sent a post and a congratulatory gift to congratulate Wen Changbo.
Fuwang Mansion, Qiu Family, Yongchang Marquis Mansion, Rong Anbo Mansion, and Yongning Bo Mansion all sent congratulatory gifts and posts.
No way, so far they only know these few in the capital.
Later, many officials also sent congratulatory gifts, but fortunately, there was money on the gift list, but it was not difficult to figure out who was who.
Brushed in the yard, Qiu Rongrong took the gift list, checked it with Wen Yao's family, and said: "These congratulatory gifts must be registered, and then received in the warehouse.
In addition, the gift list should also be kept, and after a few days the house is repaired, you will start to prepare for the banquet, and this gift list is the place where the invitation will be sent at that time. ”
"Ah, got it." Wen Yao responded and obediently followed along.
When the inventory was finished, Qiu Rongrong asked Mama Shi to take someone to lock all the things in the treasury of the house, and left the calligraphy and paintings that His Majesty rewarded and sent by the Jin family, and let people hang them in Wen Xiuyi's study, and divided some of the study rooms that were hung up to the big head, where several children lived in a courtyard, and the study was also shared.
In fact, according to Qiu Rongrong's thoughts, it should be separated, after all, the identity of the big head is there now, but the children are unwilling to separate, so it's okay.
Just like Wen Xiuyi said, what about Wen Changbo, he is still the mud leg, they are still from the Wen family in Gutong Village, Yunwu Town, just a different place to live.
