Ye Shiheng originally thought that Dugu Lanxi was taking care of the affairs of the house and would not settle the matter so quickly. He did not expect it to happen at such a speed. This eldest daughter-in-law is really capable!

For this reason, he smiled with satisfaction, "Lan Xi, among the daughters-in-law in our family, you are the best at taking care of the general affairs. You are much more capable than your mother-in-law. You are better than your master."

Being praised by others, Dugu Lanxi looked shy and said, "My mother-in-law taught her well. If she hadn't taught her step by step, no matter how small or small, my daughter-in-law wouldn't be able to take care of the family."

"I still don't know how deep your mother-in-law's bucket of water is. How good or bad she is in managing housework can't compare to you. Just take it when I praise you." Ye Shiheng said sincerely, this eldest daughter-in-law is good at everything. Well, that’s just too humble.

Dugu Lan sighed and said: "Father, the money that my father-in-law has, in addition to daily expenses, monthly money for servants and servants, I also have to keep the money that my grandfather used for his birthday this year, such as sister Hua's hairpin gift, which will be discussed separately. , My father-in-law’s money is not enough to accompany Hua’er, and the farm does not know how much rent it can collect by then. This does not include the money in the name of my aunt and grandmother. Even if the rent is collected, I’m afraid it won’t be enough.”

She knew very well how many farms and shops there were in her house. Most of the shops were the dowry of the daughter-in-law and belonged to her privately. The income was managed by the daughter-in-law herself and was not counted among the father-in-law. Some of the land and estates were rewarded for military exploits, and the rent collected went to the middle-gong, while some of the land and estates belonged to the wife's dowry. The land and estates owned by the Xu family and their late grandmother were in the hands of the old general, so the rent collected did not belong to the middle-gong. Ouyang Most of the rent from the land and village under the wife's name is accounted for by the middle-aged man, as is the dowry shop. As for her dowry, there wasn't much land, so the rent wasn't much, and she had to pay for it herself, so she wasn't counted among the middle-gong.

To collect enough money for compensation, the extra money provided by the father-in-law was not enough, and the old general would probably be angry if the ancestral property was used, so Dugu Lanxi gave Ye Shiheng a compromise suggestion, "Dad, if my sister-in-law comes back, please tell her, The money will be given to her in installments. My brother and sister are reasonable and can be forgiven. What do you think?"

"You don't have to worry about this," Ye Shiheng said, "Go and do your work."

Lonely Lanxi resigned, returned to Fengquexuan, and went to find the masonry and masonry team with a pomegranate branch.

This masonry and bricklayer shop is commonly used by wealthy and official families in Fengjing. The renovation quality is good and the price is affordable. The Ye family has also used this masonry and masonry bricklayer before.

Dugu Lanxi is in charge of the household affairs, and also has to take care of the fields and the village. He is very busy on weekdays and rarely has any leisure time. It is rare that he has some free time today.

As soon as Liuzhi left, she sat on the official hat chair, leaned back with a lazy posture, put her white and tender hands on her lower abdomen, sighed softly, burned incense and worshiped Buddha, and also took a lot of pregnancy medicine, namely Huafushu She had been prescribed the Pregnancy Decoction for a period of time, wondering when she would be able to have a baby.

She was already in her prime, and ordinary women were mothers of several children, but she had none.

Her parents-in-law would not rush her, and her husband would not blame her, but she was anxious.

Dugu Lanxi murmured to himself: "It's just a minor injury. Am I destined not to have children in this life?"

As soon as Ye Yunlu entered the room, he saw Lonely Lan Xi frowning. He stretched out his hand to rub the center of her eyebrows, and held her hand and said softly: "Lan Xi, I don't care if I have children. You are enough for me. Really." .”

Dugu Lanxi's eyes turned red and gradually became moist. She threw herself into his arms, hugged Ye Yunlu's waist, and choked with sobs: "Why can other women have children, but I can't? Why, why..."

Ye Yunlu said sadly: "Lan Xi, don't blame yourself. It's all my fault. I failed to protect you."

Dugu Lan cried silently, her tears wet Ye Yunlu's clothes.

The news of renovating Wutong Residence reached the ears of the old general. The old general felt that Ye Shiheng had too many things to do, so he asked Yuzhi to invite him over.

Ye Shiheng was afraid that his father was trying to equalize his wife or send Ye Songyan to the military camp, so he asked Yuzhi to tell his father that he couldn't go.

Yuzhi said that the old general was renovating the courtyard, so Ye Shiheng followed Yuzhi to the Feiyuan. He did not go empty-handed, but brought something with him.

This object is a tiger-headed cat with round eyes, long beards, pointed ears, and orange hair wrapped around its fat body. It is nestled in Ye Shiheng's arms, as well-behaved as a girl.

Ye Shiheng asked the old general how he was doing and sat down by himself without being invited.

The old general noticed what Ye Shiheng was carrying at a glance, "I asked you to come over, not to carry something over."

Ye Songyan was serving the old general's decoction, and he happened to be there. With his sharp eyes, he recognized the fat orange man at a glance, "Orange."

The fat orange man called out "meow" in a very cooperative manner.

"What orange?" the old general asked blankly.

Ye Songyan smiled and said: "Orange is the raccoon slave raised by my sister-in-law. I gave it to him. He has the most docile temperament. Orange is the name given to him by his sister-in-law. His hair is orange, so he is called Orange. There is also a parrot." It’s called mung bean.”

The old general said with some displeasure: "What kind of cat is this old boy holding? He's not afraid of being laughed at. Yan'er, hurry up and take it away."

Ye Songyan walked up to his father: "Father, give the orange to your son."

Ye Shiheng gave Fatty Orange to Ye Songyan. Fatty Orange knew Ye Songyan and was very well-behaved in his arms. He probably didn't need his presence when his grandfather was talking to his father, so he wisely went out and the old general didn't stop him.

The old general didn't like nonsense, so he went directly to the topic and asked about renovating Wutong House. Ye Shiheng said: "Penglai House is such a big place, and it is too crowded for two people. When Zelin and Hua'er have children, they won't be able to live there anymore." , they have to be moved anyway, so move it as soon as possible. If you wait until Hua'er is pregnant before moving, it will be better if the fetal force develops. Dad, I am taking care of my grandson."

It was a good excuse to save Sun, and the old general also convinced Ye Shiheng.

He was silent for a while before saying: "Zelin, how long has he been married?"

Ye Shiheng was slightly startled. This old man disliked Zelin the most, and he actually asked him how long he had been married?

He didn't know what his father wanted to do when he asked him about this, so he said: "It's almost four months. If they are fast enough, I will be able to hold my grandson next year."

The old general called Ye Shiheng over. He originally wanted to reprimand him for wasting money, but when he heard that it was for the sake of his future grandson, the reprimand gradually disappeared, and he only said: "Renovate well, and the money that should be spent will be spent. Don't wrong your grandson." .”

Whether this 'grandson' refers to Ye Shiheng's future grandson or his grandson, probably only the old general himself knows, or maybe even he himself doesn't know.

Ye Shiheng turned his eyes and glanced outside the door, "Dad, the fourth boy is already old enough. He should have his own yard. Why not clean up the courtyard in Shanyueju for the fourth boy to live in."
