Cross Country Little Master

No matter how reluctant Xing'er was, she was married into the deep mountains in the end.

Steward Kong bought an 11-year-old girl and two strong laborers from the tooth shop.

The little girl Liusheng took the names of the first two maids as Lizi, and the two laborers kept their original names, namely Shi Lei and Wang Er.

Li Zi and Tao'er take turns doing the work in the front yard and back yard, Shi Lei and Wang Er are currently following the grain ears and grains with Butler Kong.

Originally, the Fang family didn't need to be in such a hurry to buy people. Fang Ruixuan asked Butler Kong to do this. The main purpose was to frighten the people below, and let them understand that the Fang family could not tolerate people who chewed their tongues and plotted against the master's servants.

And as long as there is money and power, the Fang family will not be short of servants.

Fang Ruixuan punished Xing'er, not only for the safety of the house, but also for the purpose of killing chickens and monkeys.

For someone like Xing'er who wants to climb up, the biggest punishment is to shatter her dream, making her no longer have the qualifications and opportunities to pursue the extravagant desire in her heart.

Four freshmen enrolled in the school these days.Fang Ruixuan stuffed the eight-year-old Lin Yu into the current class, and the other three were counted as one class, and the next room was their classroom.

The main lecture task of the big class is next year's children's examination, and the students in the small class are still in the learning stage.

Fang Ruixuan asked Tao'er to tidy up a small yard near the outer courtyard for them. Each of the four of them brought the necessary daily necessities and a servant to take care of the daily life, and then together they hired two old ladies to take care of washing, cooking and tidying up. Room.

Their parents had already inquired about Fang Ruixuan's rules from Kong Steward and Shen Dahai before entering school.But the child is going to school in the countryside after all, and someone will take care of him until he adapts to the situation, so the adults in the family can rest assured.

For the sake of those expensive gifts before, Fang Ruixuan acquiesced to those actions, and ordered Butler Kong to let people take care of them more usually.

He has no intention of accepting apprentices now, so he can't treat these four students like Shen Huiming, but it's okay to take care of them and provide them with a slightly better environment.

In the evenings of the last few days, Fang Ruixuan stopped the apprentices' cooking, and learned how to make shadow puppets with old man Zhu, and asked Shisan to take three apprentices to make kites.

Fang Ruixuan left the household registrations of old man Zhu and Shisan in Liujia Village. Old man Zhu bought an acre of dry land for four taels of silver, and now he temporarily lives in Liu Sheng's original home.

In addition to teaching Fang Ruixuan how to make shadow puppets every few afternoons, old man Zhu often goes to the surrounding villages to sing shadow puppets or study the string puppets that Fang Ruixuan mentioned. Thirteen is left behind by him to learn how to make shadow puppets from Gusui and others. farm work.

Although there is only one mu of land, it can barely support the two of them with good care.Moreover, the half acre of land opened by Liu Sheng's family also allowed them to grow things on it.

"Brother Thirteen, Brother Xuan didn't do what you said. Can the kite made this way fly?" Shen Huiqing was young, and Fang Ruixuan was afraid that he would be cut by thorns, so he didn't let him do it.

He turned around to see how his brothers were doing, and when Hu Zhixuan was making a big centipede kite, the steps were different from Thirteen's, so Shen Huiqing ran over to ask Thirteen.

"This one seems to work, it can fly." Shisan said uncertainly after seeing Hu Zhixuan's kite.He just knows how to do it, and he can't understand some things.

"Brother Shisan, do you want to sell all the kites you made?" Shen Huiqing looked at Shisan's eagle kite, a little greedy. In fact, he really wanted to make his own kite like his brothers.

But the master didn't allow it, and he was an obedient and good boy.

"These are for you to play with. I'll make other ones and sell them," Shisan said.

"Brother Shisan, you are so kind. May I exchange this mouse doll for your kite?" Shen Huiqing said that the mouse doll was the smallest among all the dolls in his collection.

"This is impossible, dolls are too expensive, a kite is worthless, Master Huiqing likes it, so I will give it to you to play with." Shisan rubbed the back of his head and said, Fang Ruixuan gave them a lot of help, but he still has a few kites Willing to.

Now is the time when the grass grows and the warbler flies in the February sky. Fang Ruixuan suddenly thought of Gao Ding's song "Village House". When he was learning how to make shadow puppets, Fang Ruixuan suggested that old man Zhu and the others make some kites and sell them.And I planned to take a few students to fly kites when the weather is warm.

Although the production of kites and shadow puppetry is different, they can understand everything. After thinking about it for an afternoon, Shisan made the kite.

"Guess what I brought you." When Fang Ruixuan returned to his room at night, he faced Liu Sheng and put his left hand behind his back.

Liu Sheng had roughly guessed what it was from the shadow on the ground, and shook his head pretending not to guess in order to cooperate with Fang Ruixuan.

"Guess, there will be a reward for guessing right." Fang Ruixuan encouraged Liu Sheng.

"Piano score?" Liu Sheng deliberately guessed this way, because Fang Ruixuan consciously compiled some famous songs he heard in his previous life, such as High Mountain and Flowing Water, Fishing Boat Singing Evening, as well as some modern popular golden songs, into the piano after teaching Liu Sheng how to play the piano. Spectrum saved.

Firstly, these piano scores can make the daughter-in-law happy, secondly, they can fool the apprentices, and thirdly, they can be used as family heirlooms to increase the foundation of the Fang family in the future. Fang Ruixuan is very satisfied with this.

"No, guess again." Fang Ruixuan continued to encourage Liu Sheng, but he didn't know that he was being played by his little wife.

"I can't guess it, my husband told me." Liu Sheng blinked innocently at Fang Ruixuan.His husband is the one who understands the way of acting like a baby and being obedient.

Fang Ruixuan was distracted by Liu Sheng, completely forgot to tease the little daughter-in-law, and foolishly took out the shadow puppet behind him.

It is a shadow puppet made of Liusheng's Q-version full-body portrait. The three-headed body is matched with Liusheng's cute appearance, which is very lovable.

Liu Sheng took it from Fang Ruixuan's hand, played with it for a long time, and then reluctantly put it together with the previous little noodle man.

Fang Ruixuan stared at Liu Sheng with a smile in his eyes, "If you like it, I will make shadow puppets of our family and Ming'er Xuan'er for you to play with in the future."

"Okay, by the way, husband, I have something to tell you, it is a marriage that is higher than grain."

"For Gu Li's marriage, he found a wife so quickly. I remember that Gu Sui is the eldest son, and his elder brother hasn't married yet. Why did he, as a younger brother, come to the front?"

"Gu Sui once engaged in a marriage in his hometown, and he got separated from that family when he fled." Liu Sheng explained, "He wants to wait for two years. If he can meet that family, no matter whether the marriage is successful or not, the There needs to be an explanation."

As for Gu Li, it was because she bought meat for Fang's stewed meat shop, and had an eye for a girl who raised ducks.The two of them have been dating for a while, and they often send each other food and food in private.

Somehow, the girl's father found out about the matter, and for the sake of his daughter's honor, he asked Gu Li to come and ask for it as soon as possible.

However, although the woman's family is not very rich, the food and clothing of the family are always worry-free.They don't want women to marry into other people's families to be servants, and the children they give birth to will still be of low status, and they will have to serve others.

The matter was so deadlocked.

When Gu Li heard that the woman's father was going to see someone else for her, she panicked and hurried to Aunt Gu for help, and Aunt Gu went to Liu Sheng.

"Madam Gu means to redeem Gu Li?" Fang Ruixuan asked Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng shook his head, "Not all."

For Gu Auntie's family, they were completely helpless in Baishui County. They had nothing of land, food, house, and household registration.Being a servant of the Fang family, one can still have shelter, but leaving the Fang family is nothing.

Not to mention marriage.The family is willing to marry their daughter to Gu Li because they are interested in Gu Li's work for Master Juren.But Gu Li is a cheap person, so they still can't make up their minds.

"That means you want to redeem yourself, but also want to stay in the Fang family." Fang Ruixuan understood a little bit.If it was just a redemption, Liu Sheng would not feel so embarrassed.

"Well, that's it. Mrs. Gu said that she would like to stay in Fang's family for the rest of her life. I hope we can take care of the ears and grains."

"Our family is up to you, you can do whatever you want." Fang Ruixuan handed over the decision-making power to Liu Sheng, and his little daughter-in-law should also learn to use her own ability to discipline these servants.

"My idea is to agree to Mrs. Gu's request and redeem Gu Li's life. But I have to sign a 15-year employment contract and work for our family for 15 years." Liu Sheng said.

Just after Xing'er's incident happened, Liu Sheng felt that he couldn't treat these people blindly, otherwise they might think that the master's temper was soft-tempered and had something they shouldn't have.

There is no such thing as a circle without rules, and he should set rules for these people.

Mrs. Shen taught him to treat his servants equally with kindness and power. You must give favors to make them appreciate you, and at the same time, you must also follow the rules. Rewards for meritorious deeds and punishment for mistakes according to the rules can make them respect you.

"Okay, let's do as you said." Fang Ruixuan agreed, and he still had to support his wife's decision.Besides, Gu Li is also considered a talent, and he happens to have something that can use him.

"Gu Li, I heard that your marriage has been booked, congratulations." Fang Ruixuan called Gu Li to the middle of the study and said.

After receiving Liu Sheng's reply, Aunt Gu immediately settled the matter of redemption and engagement.

The mother and son of the Gu family are in Fangfu, and they all have fixed monthly schedules.Aunt Gu and Aunt Cao helped Liu Sheng make stewed pork, and they all got a good extra salary.Gu Sui and Gu Li help deliver stewed meat to and from the county every day, and there is also an errand fee, which is why Gu Li redeemed himself so quickly and booked a marriage.

It's just that in this way, the money is almost spent, and the matter of Gusui's redemption will have to be delayed for a year or two.

"Thanks to the great kindness of my husband Lang." Gu Li said flatteringly.

"I heard that you are worried about the money to buy land and build a house recently. The master has something to do here. I will pay you 50 taels of silver. You can do it for me. The rest of the money will belong to you."

When Gu Li heard Fang Ruixuan's words, his heart moved, and he immediately agreed.

Fang Ruixuan asked him to listen to him, and explained to him what he was about to do.
