Number of romantic figures

Chapter 1226 Geng Zi Juan Qingwen's Wonderful Answer

Duan Xigui was very knowledgeable, and after saying something, he took the initiative to take his leave and left.

Today is my cousin's wedding day, and he won't come to be annoying.

Feng Ziying turned to the east side of the long house, and went to see her daughter first, so she would inevitably be teased by Shen Yixiu.

Feng Ziying has a thick skin, since she wants to marry the third wife, the city government will naturally have to cultivate her heart.

Fortunately, Shen Yixiu is also a person who knows how to measure, and he only joked a few words and didn't say much, but Feng Ziying could still feel that the other party was probably under a little pressure.

The marriage of Xue's twin sisters will inevitably take away part of her thoughts and care. Feng Ziying has already considered this before. How to avoid or dilute this feeling as much as possible depends mainly on how she responds. In other words, I have to suffer myself, but this kind of change will happen anyway, now I only have two spouses, and it will be even more inevitable to wait a year or two until Daiyu gets married.

Fortunately, now that Shen Yixiu has given birth to a daughter, most of his thoughts are still on nurturing her daughter, so it will not be too obvious, but when he returns to Yongping Mansion, he will still take Xue's twin sisters with him. This feeling of being alone in the boudoir will slowly infiltrate the atrium, and that feeling will gradually become stronger.

"Husband, sister Bao and sister Qin, are they satisfied with the mansion over there?" Shen Yixiu chose the mansion, and then arranged to renovate and decorate it. Shen Yixiu was also very dedicated. Feng Ziying was very relieved about this, and Baochai arranged it later. Yinger came over to look around and was also very satisfied.

"How can you be dissatisfied?" Feng Ziying smiled, "Baochai and Baoqin are not picky people. Although our mansion can't compare with the Grand View Garden in Rongguo Mansion, it is compact and not as crowded as Rongguo Mansion. There are many hands, and the people brought by Baochai and Baoqin are only 20 people, and the people arranged for them in our mansion are only 50 people, which is nothing compared to Rongguo Mansion. 200 people are busy,..."

Speaking of this, Feng Ziying couldn't help but sigh at the labor efficiency of this era.

Previously, I thought there were thousands of men, women and children in the Rongguo Mansion, but I couldn't figure it out. Counting the master's full force, there are only 20 people. How could there be so many servants?

But looking at Bao Yuguang, there are more than a dozen maids, big and small. If you add the long followers, mothers-in-law, and servants who directly serve her, there will be more than 30 people in no time, but this is not counting the possible incidental derivatives. All kinds of related people, such as various housekeepers, storehouses, gardeners, laundresses, servants who clean and manage the garden roads, craftsmen who help with repairs, kitchen cooks, and handymen. up.

In this era, due to low productivity and backward production and labor tools, various affairs naturally require more people to operate. In addition, the aristocratic warriors who are themselves masters, pay attention to face-to-face, and naturally require more servants Come to serve them, as soon as these people increase, it means that more people are also needed to serve these people.

So it turned out that Feng Ziying also thought about reducing the manpower as much as possible, and she didn't need so many people to serve her, but she realized that her idea was too simple after she really integrated into this world.

Once you come to clothes, stretch out your hands, eat, and open your mouth, you are used to life, but suddenly it is your turn to be self-reliant. It is really not used to it. You can immediately realize that it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Secondly, not only is there no shortage of labor force in this world, but it can be called overflowing. Everyone is running around for a living, and more people work in the house. The Feng family can afford it, and it can be regarded as giving the families behind these people a Better treatment is not a bad thing.

"Master, don't Sister Baochai and Sister Baoqin think that our family is poorer than Jia's mansion?" Shen Yixiu asked childishly, but this tone was more like the feeling of welcoming outsiders into the mansion with the long house, Maybe Shen Yixiu didn't feel it, but Feng Ziying felt that if Baochai Baoqin heard this, he would have some thoughts in his heart.

But at this time Feng Ziying naturally would not disturb the scenery, shook her head and said with a warm smile: "The Grand View Garden was built by the concubine's relatives, how can it be compared? I heard that it cost three to four million taels of silver, but I think it is a bit too extravagant and wasteful." , but the imperial concubine and relatives don’t know that it will happen once in a few years, so it’s a waste to leave it there, let the girls live there to add some popularity, and it’s a good thing to avoid being abandoned, but our Feng family can’t do that,..."

Shen Yixiu has heard about the luxury and magnificence of the Grand View Garden for a long time, so he couldn't help but yearn for it and said: "My husband said so, but I am really curious about how magnificent the Grand View Garden is. I heard Qingwen and Xiangling say that there is a Waiting for a good place to go, even Sister Baochai and Sister Lin mentioned the benefits of it,..."

After all, Shen Yixiu is still a girl in her early twenties, so it is reasonable to be curious and fascinated by such places, and Feng Ziying also thinks it is normal.

"Well, in the future, when Wanjun's body is almost recovered, I will take Wanjun to the Grand View Garden for my husband. Although it is too extravagant, it is indeed a good place. It perfectly blends the exquisiteness and beauty of the south of the Yangtze River with the majesty of the Northland. Together, the Jia family has indeed paid a lot of money."

"Well, I'm not envious, I'm just a little curious. The climate in the capital city is different from that in the south of the Yangtze River. If we can transplant the scenic spots in the south of the Yangtze River to this place, it's inevitable that Huainan will be orange and Huaibei will be trifoliate. Everyone said that the Grand View Garden has been harmoniously integrated, so I am interested in it."

Shen Yixiu's explanation made Feng Ziying laugh, because he was afraid that he would say that she likes extravagance and is too high-minded, but he knows his wife's temperament very well, she is not that kind of person, it is normal for a daughter's family to yearn for beautiful things, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"But what Xianggong said is true. The Jia family can do this. Our Feng family is different. We still need to be more cautious. Even if we can build this kind of garden, it shouldn't be like this." Shen Yixiu added a special sentence at the end.

Feng Ziying was very satisfied with Shen Yixiu's prudent words and deeds.

As the Feng family married the two, the number of people inside and outside the mansion continued to expand, and as the mother and aunt grew older, they were bound to gradually hand over to Shen Yixiu and Xue Baochai, the young generation who worked hard outside. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it, but fortunately, Shen Yixiu is reassuring, and Xue Baochai should also have a fine and steady temperament, which is enough to make people feel at ease.

"Well, Wan Jun, your temperament is somewhat similar to Baochai." Feng Ziying said something seemingly casually, as if pointing something.

"Oh?" Shen Yixiu was also thoughtful, and smiled, "Don't you like it?"

"I like it, I think Baochai and you may have more common topics." Feng Ziying said meaningfully, "I also believe that Wanjun, you and Baochai can get along well,..."

Shen Yixiu suddenly laughed, and that smile was even brighter and more charming, "Is this Xianggong reminding my concubine not to bully my sister Baochai? Or are you worried about my concubine?"

"How could it be? Baochai is still talking about the Shen family's sister in front of me, and she is full of envy in her words, so I feel that the two of you seem to have similar temperaments." Feng Ziying took a deep look at Shen Yixiu.

"Really? I heard from Qingwen that Sister Baochai seemed to get along well with every girl in the Rongguo Mansion, but she didn't have a particularly close relationship. Did she also inherit the style of friendship between gentlemen as light as water?" What about it?" Shen Yixiu tilted his head slightly, and asked playfully: "Maybe my husband also wants the same for my concubine?"

Unexpectedly, Qingwen could see it so thoroughly, and Shen Yixiu could also understand the truth, Feng Ziying thought for a while before saying: "Wan Jun, you are a long-term wife, and if you have a similar temperament, if you get closer, no one can say anything." , other things remain indifferent, or get along harmoniously, I believe Wan Jun, you have enough wisdom to deal with it,..."

Shen Yixiu finally laughed happily: "Okay, Mr. Baochai, my concubine understands what Mr. Baochai wants, and I also believe that my sister Baochai can understand it as well. Mr. Baochai doesn't have to worry about these things. Both my sister Baochai and my concubine understand the truth." , in fact, before we..."

Shen Yixiu didn't continue, but Feng Ziying immediately understood: "Hey, you guys have a tacit understanding without telling me?"

"Master, I didn't say anything about my concubine's status." Shen Yixiu blinked his eyes like a child, "Besides, wouldn't your husband also be happy to see it come to fruition?"

Feng Ziying shook her head and stood up, "I understand, I'm the only one kept in the dark."

"It's good that Xianggong understands, but today is Baochai and Baoqin's big day, Xianggong should go there quickly, I don't want to invite the two of them to complain,..."

After Feng Ziying left, Shen Yixiu sighed quietly. Of course she wanted to live in harmony, but sometimes the trees wanted to be quiet but the wind kept blowing. The long house and the second house belonged to one family, each had their own ideas and interests, and there were even some things that could A step of courtesy, but there are some things that cannot be backed down. The husband is sober on military and state affairs, but this kind of family affairs may not be clear, especially the entanglements and disputes between women. I don't want to, and I may not be able to help myself.

While thinking about it, Qingwen came in: "Grandma, I heard Minglang next to my wife say that the concubine may have to wait until a few days later to discuss with grandma and the second room, and arrange many things in the mansion according to the rules of the first room and the second room." To make a division with the third room, grandma may have to worry about it in her heart."

"Well, Qingwen, do you think it's necessary for us to argue too much with the second room?" Shen Yixiu's words were a bit playful, "Even though each room is divided into several rooms, they are all still in the same line of husband and wife. I don't think it's beautiful to care about it, my husband said something before, I remember it very clearly, maybe this time is very appropriate, take a step back to open up the sky, and endure the calm for a while."

Qingwen chewed these two sentences for a while, with a look of hesitation on her face, "Didn't your husband just say it to grandma?"

"No, no, of course not. It's something else. I hear it occasionally, and I think it's very Zen." Shen Yixiu shook his head.

"Grandma, that servant also heard a word from Grandpa, if people don't offend me, I won't offend, if people offend me, I will offend." Qingwen's cheeks were slightly red, a little shy, "I don't know if grandma thinks this is appropriate. suitable?"

Shen Yixiu was dumbfounded.
