happy life through time

Tong Yan carefully looked at the comparison between the various houses, and ruled out the second and fourth three-entry houses because they were too extravagant.

There are many rich and noble families in Anle County, so he can keep a low profile and avoid a lot of trouble.

Too high-profile but eye-catching.

Tong Yan chose the first house, and then asked Su Shi about Ren Yazi. He wanted to buy some servant girls, otherwise, there were only a few of them in Nuo Da's mansion, and Yu Shi could not manage it alone.

"I'm really bothering Madam about the house, but I still need Madam's help. I want to buy some servant girls and find someone I can trust. I wonder if Madam has such a person?"

Su smiled slightly: "Of course, another day, I'll send someone over there for you."

"Thank you ma'am, there is one more thing."

"Please tell me, if I can help, it is definitely my duty."

"Ma'am, Tong is very grateful. As you know, my family is small, and my parents are not here, so there is no one in charge. Aunt Yu is the only person in the family who can help manage things, but Aunt Yu doesn't know much. I would like to ask Madam to teach her a lot for me so that I can take on this important task in the future."

What Tong Yan said was so straightforward, which surprised Su. Usually, big families directly find someone who can take care of things, or train them from a young age. However, Tong Yan is so straightforward that it is difficult for her to say anything else, or introduce other people.

She was used to hearing too many twists and turns, such direct words made her develop a good impression of Tong Yan.

She glanced at Liu Dafu, and saw that Liu Dafu was sitting next to Tong Yan, looking at Tong Yan quietly, not saying anything, and she didn't say much, this kind of thing should be communicated by the wife, but Seeing Liu Dafu's appearance, she still thought it would be better for Tong Yan to communicate.

Su Shi said: "What's the matter, just let her come here, I will definitely train him to satisfy you." Su Shi nodded, and agreed one by one, saying that if he bought a maid, he could also be trained by Zhang Ma. Very enthusiastically sent someone to clean up the house.

Tong Yan didn't refuse either. After all, they were the only ones to talk about, but they were too busy. Su's just helped him a lot.

Tong Yan asked Yu Shi to clean up with her, and the maids who came in in the future had to be trained by Yu Shi, so Tong Yan wanted her to be alone.

In the process of tidying up the house, Mrs. Yu met a person, Mrs. Zhang.

Mama Zhang followed Su Shi since she was a child, and knew many things about the big family. The maids around Madam Su were trained by Mama Zhang, and Madam Yu learned a lot from her. I want to learn more things so that I can manage such a large house.

Tong Yan and Liu Dafu study and practice calligraphy at home, and Ma Tai becomes his servant.

Tong Yan felt that Ma Tai was too young to use child labor, but Yu said: "It is his good fortune that Artai can read and read with the young master."

Tong Yan didn't say anything.

Tong Yan now has three more tasks in his daily workload. Apart from the usual time for reading and practicing calligraphy, he also has to set aside time for writing scripts, exercising, and going out to communicate with friends.

Studying alone is not as fast as sharing with everyone. Under such circumstances, Tong Yan's learning ability has gradually improved, and he has learned a lot.

Everyone is talented in Anle County, most of them are scholars, and a few are students of Hengshan Academy.

However, there are quite a few of them, like Tong Yan, who are going to take the entrance exam next year.

Every day, Tong Yan is so busy that he doesn't even have time to take care of the things in the space. He only squeezed the goat's milk a few times, picked the apples, and put those vegetables in the courtyard like this, making him grow old. After another long wave, he can't manage the family affairs at all, so he can only ask Yu Shi to help.

Liu Dafu wanted to take care of it, but like Tong Yan, he was a man, and he didn't know anything about the affairs of the house, so he couldn't help at all.

Tong Yan suddenly wanted to take his parents and eldest brother and sister-in-law to live here, so that he could save a lot of effort, but he didn't know if they would like to come.

And he finally understood how difficult it was to take the imperial examinations in ancient times. No wonder those poor scholars looked handsome and thin instead of strong and strong. In fact, too much time was spent on studying and exercising. The body has too little time and the nutrient solution is not good, so how can it be healthy?Not to mention that they don't care about family affairs, even if they don't care, they can't be too busy.

They need books, they need exams, and they need diplomacy.

It’s no wonder that poor people can’t afford to read books. Leaving aside the tuition fees for books, the cost of diplomacy is dozens of times higher than these, so that poor families are always looked down upon. Unless you are talented, you can know everything without worrying about anything. Otherwise, don't always act condescendingly.And if you are not diplomatic, do not see the world, just keep your ears shut and concentrate on studying, do you really think you can succeed?Others will laugh at you, you are here to be funny!

Tong Yan sighed, it was the first time he was facing the imperial examination, and it was the first time he wanted to use his own strength to accomplish what he wanted to do. It was quite difficult, but there was no way, it was not difficult, it was the imperial examination.

One letter per month, Tong Yan explained his wishes in the letter, as for whether his parents will come or not, that's another matter.
