The road to becoming a god through the Red Mansions

Seeing that it was getting late, Grandma Liu didn't say much, and she would have plenty of time to set rules in the future.Just look at the people who bought today and where they will be placed.

"Chen Xin and Shitou followed the master to go out and listen to orders. Nanny Li and Luluo will follow his wife in the future. Steward Chen is in charge of the arrangement of the front yard. Mr. Zhao also lives in the front yard. Luluo will help Mr. Zhao tidy up the room later. From now on, Luo Da will guard the porter and the stable, and if someone wants to go out, you will also be responsible for driving the car."

"Nurse Chen and Chuncao followed the girl, and Chen Xin's family took the big girl to take care of the kitchen. The big girl's name is too bad, so she will be called Xiaguo in the future. Erya and Zhaodi are also changed to Qiuhe and Dong." Mai, also matches the spring grass." Grandma Liu paused when she said these names, and changed the names of the three of them casually, and the three little girls hurried forward to thank them.

"Dongmai will wait by my side in the future, and Zhuzi will run errands with the uncle. Now it's arranged like this. If something goes wrong, don't blame me for being cruel."

The people below all bowed in response, and Grandma Liu sent them off to do their own work, and handed over the remaining trivial matters to Nanny Chen and Nanny Li.Only Dong Mai was left outside the door to listen to the orders, and the whole family gathered around the main room to talk.

Because today is as busy as a war, Grandma Liu didn't say much, just told them not to talk nonsense when they don't understand, and if there is anything to deal with, first ask the nurses and stewards around. Then pick one from which is feasible and so on.

This is not something that can come out in a day or two. After a few words, Grandma Liu changed the subject: "Early tomorrow morning, Ban'er's father will take Lao Luo and the men in the family home. Bring all the food from the family, and leave a hundred and ten catties for us to use when we go back. Then bring some of the vegetables, melons and fruits that are edible at home, so we don’t have to buy them.”

Wang Gou'er nodded after hearing this: "Mother is right, just today, our family's money is flowing out like water. I said yesterday that those bank notes are enough for our family to use for several lifetimes, but now I can't see it." I feel too much."

Grandma Liu rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Your family buys so many people to use it every day. Isn't this the first time. Now that the styles are all ready, from now on we only need food and clothing for food and clothing. We still have some from the field. Harvesting, it’s only a few tens of taels of silver a month, and it’s stopped.”

Liu Shi was relieved when she heard this, she was really frightened by the boldness of her old mother when she spent money.

Ban'er and Qing'er didn't understand anything yet, they just played with the little gadgets they bought on the kang beside them, and they didn't pay any attention to the adults' planning troubles.Ban'er even thought that if every day in the future could be like today, with food and drink, it would be great.

For a while, the meal was ready in the kitchen, and the family sat around and ate, each resting without mentioning it.

The next day, after breakfast, Luo Da drove the carriage, Chen Xin drove the ox cart, and Wang Gou'er showed the way, and they all drove to Wangjia Village.After sending the people to the warehouse to move things, Wang Gou'er personally made brown sugar water and put dried fruit snacks in the yard to entertain the neighbors.

People in Wangjia Village are used to the excitement of Wang Gou'er's house. Now that they heard that their family is going to move to the city, they are envious, but they don't ask any more questions, which saves Wang Gou'er a lot of saliva. .

The belongings in each house did not move, all they took were large items, but within half a day they finished moving, said goodbye to the neighbors, agreed to come back the day after tomorrow to treat guests, and the group set off on their way home again.

Looking at the two carts of grain, Wang Gou'er felt a little worried. His family of five could eat for half a year, but with such old servants, it would take a month.Wang Gou'er puts all his hopes on the big village in the suburbs of Beijing, but now that the autumn harvest is over, he doesn't know where the food is for his own family or Grandma Feng's.

After making up his mind to go and see for himself in a few days, Wang Gou'er suppressed the matter in advance.When I saw a bookstore on the road, I stopped the carriage, bought some elementary school supplies, and then went straight home.

On this day, Grandma Liu and Mrs. Liu were not idle either. They took the maids and women to tidy up the house again, and went to the market to buy a lot of food and beverages, all of which they didn't have time to buy yesterday.There are people in the room, and there are so many things, it doesn't look as empty as it was just yesterday.

Wang Gou'er ran away for a day. Seeing him come back, Mrs. Liu hurriedly ordered someone to prepare hot water for food, and the family didn't mention the meal.

After Grandma Liu's persuasion and Nanny Li's secret reminder this day, Mrs. Liu looks like a very expensive wife now.But when the servants went out and only she and Wang Gou'er were left in the room, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief: "This rich and noble family is served by someone, but every word, deed, and every action must be stern." It’s true, it’s more tiring than me going to work in the fields.”

Wang Gou'er was half lying on the kang at this time, and when she heard the words, she glanced at her: "You don't have such a rich life, but how many acres of land does our family have, why don't you go back and plant it? I don't know if you are in the blessing. blessing."

Liu slapped him angrily: "I didn't just say that, you still choked me!"

"When I went back today, I told everyone in the village that we'll go back the day after tomorrow and have a banquet. Although our family has moved away, Gen'er is still in Wangjiacun, so we can't just be so careless and silent, you say What should we prepare for the banquet?" Wang Gou'er saw that his daughter-in-law was annoyed, so he hurriedly started talking about something else.

As expected, Mrs. Liu started to plan as he wished. The couple planned the dinner together head to head, and they lay down to sleep when they were tired.

Although they had prepared a treat for the day after tomorrow, they couldn't go back on the same day, so they went back to Wangjia Village the next day.Gather up all the things you need at home, and take them with you when you leave tomorrow; if you have a prosperous home, you can't be stingy with guests, and you must prepare chicken, duck and fish in advance, and there is no shortage of melons, fruits and vegetables in the farm. The gifts proposed by each family tomorrow are probably enough.

Wang Gou'er's family held a lively housewarming banquet. The table was full of fat chickens and ducks. The villagers were full of greasy food, saying that they would not be able to eat such good dishes during the Chinese New Year. They all praised their family's ability to behave like this.Wang Gou'er also felt that he had a rather long face. His family had been in decline since his father. People used to talk about his family's prodigal family, but now they are praised by the neighbors.

The next day after the housewarming banquet, they left Wangjiacun. The son of the village chief saw that they had a lot of people and stuff, so he drove a bullock cart to see them off, which saved a lot of trouble.

After resting at home for a few days, Grandma Liu hurriedly went to visit Wang Xifeng, and this time she planned to take Mrs. Liu with her.One is to allow Wang Xifeng and Liu to meet each other; the second is to open the eyes of my daughter, so that she will not feel sorry for this and that all day long; the third is to ask about the Zhuangzi in the suburbs, thinking about asking Wang Xifeng to send a steward Let's go together, so that Wang Gou'er won't be able to control the situation at that time.

If we go again this time, Grandma Liu will not be able to fill up with those worthless things like dried vegetables. Fortunately, Wang Xifeng knows her family's background, so she won't make a fuss about it.So I took my mother-in-law to buy a few exquisite snacks, and then chose a set of jewelry suitable for a little girl, plus a hundred clothes made by Liu's, which is not rude.

Wang Xifeng's belly is already big now, but it's unusually big. Sure enough, Ping'er told them that the doctor said that the baby is likely to be twins.Grandma Liu was really shocked for a while. In ancient times, it was difficult for women to give birth. Individuals would still be shut down for a while, and the twins would have to die for half their lives.

Sister Feng's master and servant were also a little worried, but she still kept her face steady.Seeing this, Grandma Liu had to put away the worries in her heart, and only picked up the knowledge about caring for pregnant women and said a lot. Ping'ersheng was afraid that she might not remember it correctly, so she sent someone to quietly invite Lin Daiyu to write it down with a pen and paper.

Lin Daiyu wrote for half an hour before she memorized all the folk remedies and techniques.But Wang Xifeng couldn't read very well, and the maids and wives she brought were all blind, so she had to trouble Lin Daiyu to ask her what she remembered from time to time.

Seeing this, Grandma Liu brought up Ban'er and Qing'er's study, and took the opportunity to persuade Wang Xifeng to read more.No matter how bad Qiao's sister is, she will be three years old after the Chinese New Year, it's time for enlightenment, and it's good for Wang Xifeng to follow along and learn to read.

Hearing Grandma Liu's words, Daiyu looked at her with admiration. She thought she was just a poor country lady, but she had this insight when she didn't want to.She liked it from the bottom of her heart, and sent Xueyan back to the house to bring several copybooks and a few new books, saying that it was a gift for Baner to enter school, but Grandma Liu and others couldn't shirk it.

Speaking of which, this is Grandma Liu's second time getting along with Lin Daiyu in this life, so the rejuvenation technique probably worked.Although Daiyu still looks slender and graceful, but her face is rosy and full of breath, she doesn't seem to have any deficiencies like last time.

When Grandma Liu left with the Liu family and Ban'er siblings, Laiwang and his wife followed behind them. These two people had known their family many times, and they were considered acquaintances.Now that the autumn harvest is over, Wang Xifeng has a big belly and no longer cares about the house, so she is much more generous when she is not busy, saying that she will lend the Laiwang couple to their house for ten days.

Needless to say, those who came to Wang's house were there to teach Mrs. Liu some things to be greeted and delivered; Laiwang followed Wang Gou'er to the Zhuangzi and went to the shop. .

Wang Gou'er's family had no experience before, and Grandma Liu didn't want to work hard. After listening to Laiwang's suggestion, the shop continued to be rented out, and the annual rent was 800 taels, which was enough for their family to eat.As for Zhuangzi, in addition to reserving ten acres of land for his own use, he also leased it to local tenants as in previous years. He just waited to collect the rent every year, which was cheap.

Seeing so many fields in his family, Wang Gou'er was so rich that he went back to Wang's Village in person, and gave the few acres of his Susukida to the village head's family for farming. It was agreed that he would pay [-]% of the rent for a year, which is very cruel. I got a good impression from Village Chief Wang.
