Daiyu's life

Chapter 21

Now Daiyu can be said to regard Jia Min as a glass doll, not to mention taking over the housework, serving Jia Min every day, Lin Ruhai took Haoxuan away, leaving Haoyu alone, Daiyu was worried, so she simply went with her. Moved to Jia Min's house, Daiyu looked after her together.

Haoyu is four years old now, and he is a bit smaller, but the doctors who have seen it say that it is not impossible that as long as he is carefully raised, he will be fine beyond the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Jia Min touched his youngest son's head and asked, "How is Haoyu's flute practice?"

Haoyu has long been used to the difference between himself and his elder brothers and sisters, and he didn't complain about shutting himself in the room. He smiled at Jia Min and said, "It's pretty good. The sir said that my flute sound is very spiritual. If you add more insight, you will become a great weapon in the future. Mother, when I become a person in the future, everyone will brag about it to you every day, okay?"

Jia Min put his arms around his younger son and said with a smile, "Okay." Hao Yu shook his little head as if he was reciting a letter, and said, "Mr. Dance sword, envy those wives and grandmas."

Jia Min wiped away her tears, and said in a trembling voice, "Then Haoyu must learn from it, your sister's Qin is praised by everyone she has met."

Haoyu nodded with a smile, reached out to touch a piece of pastry and started to eat it with a smile, because Haoyu’s health is not good. Biting like a little mouse, Jia Min smiled and watched Hao Yu eating.

Daiyu watched Jia Min and Haoyu talking happily in the outside room, so she didn't go in, but went to the ear room to make medicine for Jia Min herself, Daiyu frowned after receiving the medicine bag, now Lin Ruhai and Jia Min don't know each other It was hidden from Daiyu, and those safe prescriptions were no longer opened. Daiyu saw that half of the medicine bag in her hand was ginseng.

Daiyu put the medicinal ingredients in herself, watched it boil, and brought it in for Jia Min. Jia Min didn't even look at it, pinched her nose and drank it.

Haoyu handed the dim sum in his hand to Jia Min and said, "Mother, eat the dim sum, it won't be bitter after eating." Jia Min ate it with Haoyu's hand, Daiyu couldn't laugh or cry, and said "Mother, how long have you pinched this Haoyu?"

Jia Min didn't fight back, just smiled, until Haoyu rushed over and hugged Daiyu and said, "Sister, I washed my hands before eating snacks." As she said that, she pulled her small mouth, Daiyu couldn't stand Haoyu's small mouth Holding the small look, he could only comfort and say, "Okay, Haoyu is the most obedient, as long as Haoyu promises that sister will not let go of the snacks after eating, you will come with chicken soup in a while, give Haoyu a drink, okay?"

Haoyu tilted his head and looked at Daiyu, and said, "There is no shortage of sweet soup that night." Daiyu pinched Haoyu's small face lightly, and said, "Okay, there is also a lot of sweet soup."

Daiyu asked the small kitchen to bring out the angelica tortoise glue and black chicken soup for Jia Mindun for Jia Min to use, and made a small bowl for Haoyu. Jia Min didn't drink his own first, but took a spoon, spoon by spoon Feed it to Haoyu, Daiyu waited until Haoyu had finished drinking, then scratched her face with her hand, and shamed Haoyu there. Ken came out.

Daiyu said to Jia Min, "Mother, some things have been sent from Zhuangzi. I'll go and have a look." After saying that, she pointed to Haoyu and went out. When Haoyu heard that Daiyu had gone out, she turned her head He lifted it up, and said to Jia Min half complaining and half coquettishly, "Mother, you can't feed me when my sister and brother are here. They always work together to laugh at me."

Jia Min deliberately said, "My mother can't remember what to do, otherwise why would my mother not feed me anytime, okay?"

Haoyu gave Jia Min a very embarrassed look, thought for a while and said, "Forget it, you should go ahead, anyway, my sister and elder brother are just smiling."

Jia Min joyfully pressed Hao Yu into his arms, and Hao Yu let out a sigh of relief where Jia Min couldn't see it. This must have achieved the purpose of making my mother happy as my sister said.

Daiyu didn't go to see the production on the Zhuangzi, but went to see Lin Ruhai. Daiyu pointed at the family account books and said, "Daddy, these are all exchanged for gold and shipped to the capital."

Lin Ruhai smiled after seeing it and said, "No wonder your mother said that Yu'er is very proficient in accounting. Now the accounts, even decades old accountants, can't tell the difference."

Daiyu blushed a little. She couldn't say that people in the future would be too cunning, and the accountants should also keep pace with the times, otherwise there would be no important people in the company.

Daiyu still said worriedly, "Father, there is a secret room in our house where these things are transported to the capital. It is feasible to store these things in those two places."

Lin Ruhai said, "It was bought when Wei's father first took office. It was not our family's name, but the name of a delivery merchant. The businessman's household registration was killed and Wei's father kept it."

Daiyu immediately thought that the Zhuangzi shops in her family were divided into two parts of account books, one part had good income, and the other had only moderate income, so she immediately asked, "Dad, are there any Zhuangzi shops in our family that are not under your name?"

Lin Ruhai nodded with a smile, and said, "This method is not thought of by father, but by your grandfather. It was done in this way when your grandfather was seriously ill. Those are only in the name of ordinary people. Of course, the income to pay taxes is not in the name of father." good."

After she was relieved, Daiyu devoted herself to the business of making fake accounts. Apart from being with Jia Min every day, helping Jia Min make medicine and taking care of Lin Ruhai and the two younger children, Daiyu basically used the rest of the time to make fake accounts. Now, the news that Lin Ruhai will continue to stay in office has not been spread yet. We all know that Lin Ruhai has announced his transfer, and there are not many people who are watching the Lin family.The most troublesome thing is the ancient books of the Lin family. Many of them are orphans. If they are transported away, they may not be well preserved and cause bugs. Mr. Scribe made two copies of these books, one of which was shipped to Beijing, and the lonely copy and the other were left in Yangzhou. It took three months to complete the work.

Lin Ruhai looked at the account book and nodded in satisfaction, not to mention that Daiyu made a total of 100 million taels left in the Lin family's account, which also included many imperial gifts, which can only be estimated and cannot be bought or given away. , Suzhou’s ancestral house offering sacrifices to the fields, etc. Of course, this account book does not include the dowry of the contemporary mistress Jia Min. Jia Min’s private house is now kept by herself, and she does not use the family’s account books. From Lin Ruhai’s point of view, Daiyu’s position in this regard Only then can you really be worthy of the word genius.

The property of the Lin family was divided into four parts: Yangzhou kept one and the smallest one, the old house in Beijing kept one, merchant Zhao Chengming got one, Lin’s grandfather left one for farmer Sun Tian, ​​and Lin Ruhai’s Grange shop also had one. It is better to transfer to these two names, even if the family is really defeated in the future and ransacked the house to the death, three copies can be copied, and one copy can be left for the Lin family to make a comeback.

Mr. Meng said regretfully, "It's a pity for my son."

Lin Ruhai smiled slightly and said, "It's not necessarily a good thing if a man is so smart." Mr. Meng thought for a while and said, "That's right, there are few people who can persuade a man so smart."

Daiyu didn't know that Lin Ruhai and Mr. Meng spoke so highly of her. She was leading Aunt Fan on patrol, and Daiyu said, "It's such a cold day that I just need to rest. "

Aunt Fan doesn't often serve Jia Min by her side, but she is an absolute confidant, and what is even rarer is Aunt Fan's loyalty. Now that Daiyu has taken over the housework, Aunt Fan also values ​​Aunt Fan very much. He became frivolous when he valued it, and he strictly abided by his duty.He whispered to Daiyu, "It's okay for the old slave to go back, why not go for a walk with the girl and sleep sweeter at night."

The snow geese beside Daiyu are orphans who were sold alone. They are very pitiful without father and mother. In the early years, Jia Min also asked Aunt Fan to recognize a god girl or son so that she could retire in the future. Oh, the girl Xiaosi in this mansion has a lot of eyes, and Aunt Fan is also afraid that she will raise a white-eyed wolf. In the past few months, Daiyu has led people to get in touch with Aunt Fan a lot, but Aunt Fan is very fond of Xueyan. I liked it very much, so I said, "If my aunt has nothing to do at night, I will let Xueyan go with my aunt. She chatters non-stop every day, even at night, making people headaches. It just so happens that my aunt also helps me take care of it. "

Aunt Fan did not refuse and said, "What did the girl say? Xueyan's aura has increased a lot in the past two years by the girl's side. Even talking is pleasing. As long as Xueyan is not bored, the old slave welcomes her at any time." .”

The first few places are all good, and Daiyu also said, "This young man has been busy for so long, and now everyone is doing his duty. This month, everyone posted an extra half a month ago, and they worked hard." It's not right when you get to the small side gate, it's usually used when the servants go out to buy, but when they heard the sound of someone drinking, Daiyu didn't let you speak, and walked over quietly.

I heard a daughter-in-law complaining there, "I have never seen any girl who was so powerful when she was in her natal family. It was fine to help the wife manage the inner courtyard before, but now she even manages the rent at home. Do you see that?" Whose family sent the big housekeeper out for the Chinese New Year, and now they are looking for that Su Hu for everything, and instead left my father-in-law aside."

The daughter-in-law was still complaining, but Daiyu figured out who it was, the youngest daughter-in-law of the big housekeeper Chen Ge. The daughter-in-law begged Aunt Fan to arrange an errand for his daughter-in-law, and Aunt Fan returned to Daiyu, and Daiyu arranged an errand for her to guard the gate. There were only five people guarding this small gate, just like giving money to her family in vain. Sometimes there are shopkeepers who come to sell things, and the little girl wants to go out and give them some benefits, which is also a good job.

Before the daughter-in-law could finish her complaints, she was persuaded by a person, "Drink less. You can still warm your body when the girl patrols over. If you drink too much, it depends on what you say. It’s not like going out for nothing, the village heads in Beijing donated a lot of things.”

The daughter-in-law then complained, "Fuck, this wife was strict enough when she was housekeeper, but now she is on the next level with the girl, and the manors dare to take as much as they want, and the mansion always sends people to look at it, and those zhuangtou dare not Be harsh, how much can you have in your hand, there can be as much as the mansion collects in a new year, those salt merchants use their heads to hand over the money."

Another person persuaded, "You are too dissatisfied. Su Hu has been running outside for the past few years, and your father-in-law has received a lot for the benefits of guarding the mansion. This year alone is worth your complaints."

The daughter-in-law scolded very angrily, "You know what, it was our grandfather's father who was not in good health at the beginning, if my ancestors found out that he was gone, and our grandfather didn't have it when he came out of Gusu. Did it come from our family, our family is dead, let alone a little money, his Lin family owes our family life."

Daiyu was so angry that her head exploded. This Chen Gezu had done a lot of things for the Lin family, not to mention the current master-servant system, but that their family has held the position of the Lin family's chief steward for many years after that. , It should be enough, their family's family property is much more than 5 taels, and now they actually say this, if someone in the family doesn't complain often, how much would this little daughter-in-law know as a newly married.

Daiyu went out, looked at the young daughter-in-law with a half-smile, and said, "Tell me about your family having a child, how much the master's family owes you now."
