The three of them talked for a while, and Qiu Rongrong also told them about the order placed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Only then did they realize that it was Prince Fu who was the one who pulled the strings.

Only then did Qiu Rongrong finally understand what Wen Xiuyi said, why he owed more and more favors.

No matter what, you owe it anyway, so pay it back slowly, there will always be time to pay it back.

Wen Xiuyi was still a little worried.

"You have received so many orders, can you handle it?"

Qiu Rongrong raised her head confidently: "Father, you don't have to worry about this. It can definitely be done. With the sewing machine, the output has skyrocketed. Moreover, I have taken over two more farms to raise ducks and geese, and the output will not be the same." Not available."

Wen Xiuyi didn't understand business matters either.

"Anyway, you just have to know what's going on. I'll go back and take a rest. You two can talk among yourselves." Wen Xiuyi stood up and walked out. He was stunned for a moment when he stood at the door. He hadn't even remembered where his yard was.

The house is too big, which is a problem, but their small temple is better. A roar can be heard in several houses.

Fortunately, Lu He had been guarding the door, and when he saw him coming out, he went up to greet him.

"Master, do you want to go back and rest?" Lu He was actually panicking. He had followed his uncle since his family was all weak-legged. Compared with those well-trained boys, it was obvious that he had no advantage, but he There is a sense of loyalty that no one can compare to.

Wen Xiuyi asked him in a low voice: "Lu He, do you remember how to get out of the yard?"

Lu He chuckled: "Remember, you can just walk with confidence, my servant will be right next to you."

Wen Xiuyi raised his eyebrows at him, hehe, you are sensible.

In this way, Wen Xiuyi took Lu He away. When he reached an intersection, Lu He would remind Wen Xiuyi in a low voice before letting him return to his new home.

Wen Yao accompanied Qiu Rongrong to the courtyard arranged for her. It was right next door to Wen Yao. There was no plaque on the courtyard yet. It turned out that there was one, but it was in disrepair, so she asked Steward Tong to demolish it and prepare to build a new one. Moreover, the courtyard The name also depends on what the masters think of.

Along the way, Qiu Rongrong also discovered that the house was big and grand, but it was a bit old and needed to be repaired and improved in many places.

"There are a lot of places that need to be repaired, and the flowers and plants need to be taken care of again. My adoptive father is also an earl now. If outsiders see that the furnishings in our house are not even as good as those of an official's house, How can that be done?"

Along the way, Qiu Rongrong kept talking about these things.

She remembered that when she was at Xie's house, she kept everything in good order. Even the flowers and plants in the yard were all rare species. It was just a waste of money.

"I'll ask Qiaoyan to keep an eye on the shop these days. I'll stay at home and teach you how to manage the house." Qiu Rongrong decided that the business now has an order from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which can be said to be stable. The order will be enough for her and Wen Yao to last for a lifetime as long as they don't commit suicide every year in the future.

In contrast, it was more important to make arrangements at home first. After all, Wen Yao said that he would have to entertain civil and military officials at a banquet in a few days.

You can't entertain guests in such a shabby way.

Wen Yao wanted to say that she didn't want to be a housekeeper at all, but she couldn't help but Qiu Rongrong kept saying that she was the only mistress of the family. Although Qiu Rongrong took the title of adopted daughter, she was still an outsider.

So the next day, when Wen Yao was pulled out of bed by Qiu Rongrong, she already felt like the sky was falling.

With Aunt Shi around, she was not afraid that the servants in the house would be disobedient. Qiu Rongrong was vigorously arranging the repairs in the house, while spending a lot of money on purchases. She didn't have much of anything now, but she had a lot of money.

Fortunately, the original furniture and ornaments left behind are all high-quality mahogany. If they are repainted, they will look like new. However, the flowers, vases, tea sets, bowls and chopsticks all need to be replaced with new ones.

Just after arranging the previous things, I turned around and saw Wen Yao sitting in the hall, looking distracted.

Qiu Rongrong: "..."

Qiu Rongrong told Aunt Shi to keep an eye on the people below her while she returned to the front hall and couldn't help but poke Wen Yao in the forehead.

"You, you, I am teaching you, but you are wandering around. What are you thinking about?"

"Ah?" Wen Yao lazily came to her senses and leaned on her to act coquettishly: "Good sister, you are here, please help me take care of it first."

Qiu Rongrong was coaxed by her and had no choice but to say: "For the time being, I can help you manage the Earl's Mansion first. After all, I just came here, and it is impossible for you to get started with many things now, but you have to promise me that you must do it in the future." Study, you know? The foster father is alone and there is no mistress in the house. You are the only mistress of the house. Who cares about these things? "

Wen Yao leaned on her and murmured softly: "Tell me, can you find us a mother?" Then there is a mistress?

Qiu Rongrong was startled by her words, but she still said: "Have you ever heard that if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather, and it's not uncommon for the stepmother to bully the daughter of the principal wife?"

Wen Yao herself didn't know why such an idea suddenly came to her mind just now, and that gentle face also appeared.

She quickly shook this dangerous thought out of her head.

It's damning that she actually had such a bold idea. If Professor Wen knew about it, her butt would probably bloom.

"I just said it casually, casually, hehe." Wen Yao quickly tried to fool him.

Fortunately, Qiu Rongrong didn't really take it seriously, so the matter was over.

That afternoon, knocking sounds could be heard everywhere in Wenchangbo's house. Qiu Rongrong was very satisfied with the efficiency of these people.

Sure enough, money can still make a difference.

The next day, the rewards from the palace came down, from the Queen Mother, from the Emperor, and even the third princess sent congratulatory gifts. After all, Guan Shengrui had indeed learned to be more well-behaved and sensible these days in the Wen family.

Immediately afterwards, the steward of the Jin family sent a post and a congratulatory gift to congratulate Wen Changbo.

Prince Fu's Mansion, Qiu Family, Yongchang Marquis' Mansion, Rong'an Bo's Mansion, and Yongning Bo's Mansion all sent congratulatory gifts and posts.

There is no way, they only know these few in the capital so far.

Later, many officials also sent congratulatory gifts. Fortunately, the gift list was signed, so it was not unclear who was who.

They were all placed in the yard. Qiu Rongrong took the gift list and checked it with Wenyao's family. She said: "These gifts must be registered in the book and then sent to the warehouse. If there are things that can be used at home, they will be taken out. Yes, but when something happens to someone else in the future, you have to return the gift according to the items on the gift list, and you can only give it a heavy gift and not a light one.

In addition, the gift list should also be kept. After the house is repaired in a few days, preparations for the banquet will begin. This gift list will be where the invitations are sent. "

"Ah, I understand." Wen Yao responded and followed suit obediently.

After the inventory was completed, Qiu Rongrong asked Granny Shi to lead people to lock all the things in the warehouse of the mansion. She also kept the calligraphy and paintings rewarded by His Majesty and sent by the Jin family and had them hung in Wen Xiuyi's study. Some of the study rooms were divided and hung up. Several children there lived in the same yard and shared the same study room.

In fact, according to Qiu Rongrong's idea, they should separate. After all, Datou's current identity is there, but the children don't want to separate, so that's it.

Just like Wen Xiuyi said, what about Wen Changbo, he is still the mud-legged guy, and they are still members of the Wen family in Gutong Village, Yunwu Town, they just changed their lives in a different place.
