Datang Live Room

The small courtyard that Yan Kai imagined was the kind where when the door is opened, there is a woodshed and stove on the left, the living and dining room of the family in the middle, and two or three bedrooms on the right.

It almost looks like a courtyard house.

But today he finally got to see the small courtyard at the gate of a wealthy family.

There is a screen wall when you enter, and there is a small bridge, flowing water, pond and pavilion.

The rooms are indispensable including the wing room, the east and west wing rooms, the main room, and the hood room.

"Is this... room for us?"

Sister-in-law Yan wondered if she was dreaming. She had washed clothes for a period of time at the house of a leather goods master in the town.

The master's house doesn't look as good as this yard.

"Mr. Yan, the bedding in the room is all new. If there is anything else you need, please feel free to ask!"

"Thank you so much, Butler Zheng, this... is already very good!"

Butler Zheng nodded and whispered: "Originally, the young master said that two servants would be arranged to come over, but I was afraid that Ling Yan and others would not be used to coming over, so..."

"Thank you, Butler Zheng, and also thank Zheng Zhixun for me."

I have to say that Butler Zheng may be a little arrogant, but if he does his best to help you, he will really do it properly.

Not to mention bedding and other things at home, rice, noodles, vegetables are also placed in the kitchen, and there are two pieces of meat on the stove.

"Ling Yan and others have been working hard all the way, so I won't interrupt you for now. If there is anything you need, Mr. Yan, don't be polite, just ask."

Yan Kai's family thanked them again before sending Butler Zheng and others away.

"Godfather, do we need to be so polite? It's true that the young master has never invited a wife before, but I have never seen you so..."

"What do you know?" Butler Zheng glared at his godson: "Mr. Yan's academic achievements aside, do you know what he asked the craftsmen to do in the mansion today?"

"What have you done?"

"I don't know what it did, but I heard from the craftsman that Mr. Yan said casually that it was a magical tool for arithmetic. It can be many times faster when used than using arithmetic chips!" Butler Zheng touched his beard: "Our young master It won’t be too advantageous in the next family competition. The master and I estimate that the business that will be assigned to the young master will be a business in the upper county. "

"But now..." Butler Zheng smiled proudly: "It's not impossible even for a county! So compared to that, what does it mean to lend a house to Mr. Yan to stay temporarily?"

The ancients may have had less knowledge, but they were not stupid. After weighing the gains and losses, what they gave now was completely out of proportion to what they would get in the future.

"So you remember to ask your servants to be polite to Mr. Yan and his family!"

"Don't worry, godfather, I won't have to!"

They all follow the same lineage as Mr. Zheng. For them, it can be said that Mr. Zheng has experienced both prosperity and loss.

If the business that Mr. Zheng manages is bigger, the benefits they will get will naturally be greater.

In the small courtyard, Yan Laoer and others have not yet recovered from the shock.

He carefully pulled Yan Kai over and asked, "Gouwazi, are you really teaching this young master to read?"

If it is true, then of course it is good. What he is afraid of is that if his Yan Kai is deceived by his sweet words, then these high-ranking families are really not something they can afford to offend.

"It's not really about teaching him to read, it's just about teaching him arithmetic."

As he spoke, he pulled the two little ones and asked, "How is it? Do you like it here?"

"like!"

"Then why don't you choose a room for yourself? From now on we can stop listening to daddy's snoring!"

"I want I want!"

"I want it too, I want it too, Daddy is shouting, I can't even sleep well!"

"Er baby, you slept like a pig all day long. You couldn't wake up even if you barked in the morning. Why can't you sleep well?" Yan Laoer looked a little confused and pretended to catch him, making the two little ones circle around Yan Kai.

Yan Kai grabbed one with one hand and said, "Mom, dad, let's go, choose a room!"

The mattresses and quilts in the room were all neatly folded.

There are porcelain teapots, cups, etc. placed on the table.

"Yan Kai, how much do these things cost? What should I do if they are broken? How about we find a room to put the things away?"

"Okay!" Yan Kai knew what his parents were thinking. It would be really difficult to ask them to change their lifestyle at once.

Keeping these things will only make their lives uncomfortable. When they earn more money and buy these things by themselves, they should feel much more at ease when they use them.

After letting the two little ones play in the yard and specifically telling them not to go near the pond, Yan Kai and his parents started to clean up.

All fragile valuables were carefully placed in the ear room.

If we sleep in separate rooms, the bedding brought by the family is not enough, so we have to use other people's.

The couple insisted on using the old bedding, but let all three children use new ones.

Yan Kai even said that he made enough money to buy new ones, but it was useless.

After cleaning up, Yan Kai touched his belly: "Mom, you must be hungry too, right? Let's cook!"

"Yes, yes!" The kitchen is Mrs. Yan's territory. She touched this and that with satisfaction, and then looked at the white rice and white noodles, but she felt troubled.

I usually eat whole grains like corn, but have I ever eaten such refined grains?

"Today is considered a new house, why don't we celebrate by eating Yanyue wontons?"

Yan Kai suggested.

Then the two little ones who were listening raised their hands and shouted: "Eat crescent-shaped wontons, eat crescent-shaped wontons!"

This Yanyue Wonton is actually a dumpling.

This thing is said to have been invented by Zhang Zhongjing of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

By the Tang Dynasty, dumplings had become almost the same as today's dumplings. They were also taken out and eaten individually on a plate.

Sister-in-law Yan washed her hands and was responsible for kneading the dough. The two little ones helped choose the vegetables. Yan Laoer found a kitchen knife and started to chop the meat.

Yan Kai was responsible for carrying water and lighting the fire.

The family cooperates with each other and has fun.

When it gets dark, a pot of steaming dumplings is ready.

"Hmm!" The two little ones sniffed hard: "It smells so good!"

The dumplings were served in broken porcelain bowls brought from home, but everyone ate them with a delicious taste.

"Mom, it's delicious!"

"Hmph! You brat, you asked someone to bring you a small fortune yesterday. They just said that you went to a rich family to tell stories. Your mother was so disturbed that she didn't have a good night's sleep."

Sister-in-law Yan kicked Yan Laoer: "What are you talking about?"

Then he remembered something and said to Yan Laoer with a tigerish face: "Also, now that Yan Kai is working outside, you can't call him Gouwazi anymore!"

Even though Yan Laoer usually looks like a big man in this family, it is Mrs. Yan who really makes the decision.

Hearing Mrs. Yan say this, Yan Laoer said a little embarrassedly: "Isn't that smooth? Remember it, remember it!"

"Dad, you can't call me Erba anymore!"

"Yes, you can't call me Sanya anymore!"

The two little ones took the opportunity to make a fuss.

"Hey, you two little guys haven't even got a name yet. If I don't call you two babies and three girls, what are you going to do?"
