Daiyu's life

Chapter 4

One of the great benefits in ancient times is that the biological clock is very easy to develop. Basically, what time to do every day is prescribed. When the time comes, Daiyu will wake up naturally. In ancient times, he could no longer be regarded as a child who knew nothing, so he moved out of the main courtyard of Jia Min and Lin Ruhai, and lived in the current Yuexin Pavilion.

Daiyu was raising her eyes with her eyes closed, when she heard the voice of the big girl Xuelu, "Girl, it's time to wake up, I'm going to say hello to my wife."

Daiyu saw the pink gauze skirt Xuejuan was holding in her hand, she nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Now Xuejuan's vision is getting better and better, no, I'll hide you for a while, motherfucker I regret it, I want you back, but what should I do."

Xue Cui smiled and said, "The girl should lead Xuejuan to go, maybe my wife is in a good mood and thinks that the girl will be nice, but sometimes the sisters in the main courtyard let the girl take them back to have a good time, isn't it lively here. The uncle and the second master of Yesheng see the girls frowning every day."

Daiyu felt very good when she thought of the wrinkled faces of Brother Quan and Brother Liu. I don't know who these two children looked like, and they didn't like people hanging around. At that time, the two young children were still Can't speak, there are too many people, the small face is wrinkled like a bun, Jia Min doesn't know what's wrong with the trouble, and it took a long time to figure out that these two little ones don't like crowds, now thinking of Brother Quan The small appearance of Liu'er and Liu Ge'er is really cute and painful.

When Daiyu brought them to the main courtyard, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min had packed up and were waiting for Daiyu to come. Seeing this, Daiyu smiled and saluted, "Greetings to parents, my daughter is late."

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Come and sit down, it's not that you're late, it's just that I got up early because I have something to do with my father today." Jia Min also smiled when she heard Lin Ruhai defending Daiyu, and didn't say anything.The Lin family is good at food. If the wild vegetables are cooked well, they can be served on the table at home, so there are not too many things on the table, but there are two kinds of porridge, a few side dishes, and two side dishes. Steamed buns, plus the bird's nest porridge that Daiyu must drink every morning.

The buns this morning were stuffed with fresh mushrooms. They tasted good. Daiyu ate one. Jia Min saw that her food was delicious, so she added another one to Daiyu. After the family had breakfast, Jia Min and Daiyu sent Lin Ruhai away , and pulled Daiyu to talk, "Yu'er, did you understand the account book I showed you yesterday?"

Daiyu "understood, and now I have read most of it." Jia Min hugged Daiyu and said, "My son is smart." She replied, "Mom, don't praise me, the account books that mother gave are all the general ledgers of the family. , don’t count, I remember it clearly, I just took a look.”

Jia Min saw that Daiyu's face was a little red, so she didn't talk about it, but Daiyu asked, "Why did mother remember to show me this general ledger? Didn't mother say that she asked her to follow the family's daily ledger?" what?"

With a wave of Jia Min's hand, everyone in the room retreated. Jia Min taught Daiyu carefully, "Mother knows that my son is smart. Mother told you, but don't let anyone know." See Looking at Daiyu and nodding, Jia Min went on to say, "Now the master has served two terms as the patrol censor. No matter how many people ask for this position, your father is lucky to be trusted by the sage to be able to serve two consecutive terms. Now this term is coming soon." It's time, even though the sage has no intention of recalling your father, if your father doesn't resign on his own, wouldn't he be someone else's way to get rich?"

Daiyu nodded and asked, "So we're leaving." Jia Min smiled and nodded.

Daiyu watched Jia Min handle the housework, and Jia Min saw that nothing serious happened, so she asked Daiyu to go back and look at the account books first, and said, "Yu'er, let's have lunch in the room. Tossing back and forth, I am suffering from heat."

Daiyu agreed, and Daiyu first went to see Brother Quan and Brother Liu. The two young ones were playing in the house. When Daiyu entered, Brother Quan was holding a cloth tiger and handing it to Brother Liu. Brother Quan and Brother Liu's nanny Zhang and Liu were also watching.

Seeing Daiyu coming in, the two nuns stood up and saluted, "Miss."

Daiyu, "Two mothers, sit down quickly, I'll come and see my younger brother." Brother Quan was very happy to see Daiyu coming, and immediately walked like Daiyu, after walking a few steps, he remembered that his younger brother was still behind, Then she stopped and waited for Brother Liu to come slowly, and led her younger brother towards Daiyu. Daiyu happily took the hands of the two younger brothers, sat down, and asked, "Brothers, what did you do today?"

Brother Quan said, "Yesterday my father taught me [-] characters, and my brother and I reviewed one more side, and then we started playing." Daiyu touched Brother Quan's face with a smile, took Brother Liu's hand and asked Said, "Brother Liu knows everything."

Brother Liu said slowly, "I know everything, why should my sister go?" Daiyu listened to Brother Liu's words slowly, and said with a smile, "My sister just came out from where my mother was, and she left her homework. I want to go back and have a look." Brother Liu nodded, and said after a while, "Then sister, go back quickly, I can't finish it carefully."

Daiyu agreed with a smile, and asked the nanny a few words before leaving.The whole brother Liu Geer is exactly the twins Jia Min gave birth to at the beginning, but Liu Geer did not develop well in the mother's womb. Fortunately, he was born at full term, otherwise he would not survive, even now he is three A little sick every day, a serious sickness every five days, the two children are obviously the same age, but Brother Quan is half a head taller than Brother Liu.

Brother Liu speaks and walks slower than Brother Quan. It’s not that Brother Liu’s brain is not enough. When it comes to intelligence, the two brothers are about the same. Brother Liu reacts slower to the outside world. The doctor said that there is no problem with his brain. It will be better soon, the whole family is relieved, the sun is too big recently, Brother Liu can't go out of the house, Brother Quan, the older brother, insists on staying with his younger brother, and that's why Daiyu went to visit her brother A scene of two people.

After seeing her two younger brothers, Daiyu went back to her Yuexin Pavilion, opened the lock, and took a look at the account books. The property of the Lin family was divided into several large pieces. They were snatched during the reign of the world, and they were later rewarded by the Marquis Taizu for their meritorious service. Lin Ruhai's branch is the direct branch, so most of them belonged to the Lin family's branch.

There are five generations of the Lin family, the dowry of the grandmothers of the past generations, don't underestimate the dowry, the previous generations of the Lin family all had titles, and all married women, the mistresses of the first two generations had the most dowry, etc. When they die, they will pay an extra million taels, no matter how they saved it, these old ancestors saved it anyway.Daiyu's grandmother, that is, Lin Ruhai's own mother, was the least one with more than 30 taels. As for how the money came from, Daiyu said that she hadn't seen the account books yet, and she didn't know.

Now there is the gray income of officials. These can only be seen in the general ledger how many fields and how much money have been added. Daiyu calculated in her heart that if she bought all the antique farms at the market price, she would have at least 700. One million taels, no more than 800 million taels at most, this is due to the addition of Lin Ruhai, who has been the patrolling salt censor for six years.

However, the most valuable things in the Lin family are not these things that can be sold, but books and antiques. The valuable antique Daiyu has been appraised, and the priceless ones are the most rare. Of course, these have nothing to do with Daiyu. It is a family heirloom, and it will belong to Brother Quan in the future, and what Brother Liu can get is limited.

Daiyu was really taken aback when she first calculated it last night, but it is not difficult to think about the money. It has already been said that the Lin family is a single family for five generations, and there is not even a single aunt who has become a monk. Here it is, plus the first few people not only have titles, but also real power. After a few years, those merchants will stick to them like bees smelling honey to give tribute money.

Among other things, Daiyu received half of the dowry from the official's family's married daughter at the first birthday ceremony. Of course, this is also because Lin Ruhai's position is really good, pinching the lifeblood of all the big and small salt merchants in Zhunyang.In addition, the population of the family has always been small, so naturally there are fewer spenders. If there are few spenders, there are no prodigal sons. Even if the head of the house is a beautiful woman, she makes a hundred and eighty sets of jewelry a year, but these are also kept. , it is not considered to be gone at all.

The relationship between the Lin family and the clan is a bit far apart. They seldom live in Gusu for a long time, and the clan rarely visits the clan. The Lin family was not the patriarch as early as the third generation of Marquis, and there is no need to pay too much money to the clan. So plus the reason why the Lin family saved so much money.

Daiyu looked at the account book again, and then locked it up, and another person came in. Xueyan ran in happily and asked, "Girl, but I need some water."

Xueyan is the smallest among the big girls around Daiyu, not to mention, she is much smaller than the second-class girl, and she is about the same age as Daiyu, but Xueyan caught Jia Min's eyes, saying that this girl is lively and makes Xueyan The wild goose took Daiyu to move around, so she was transferred to the first class, and she usually didn't need to do anything, but now seeing the snowy goose running in, Daiyu was very curious and asked, "How do you know how to run into the house today?" gone."

Xueyan blushed and said, "Sister Xuelu is drying books for the girl, and Sister Xuejuan is in the small kitchen. Sister Xuecui ordered the jewelry that my wife sent yesterday. She is registering, and she will give birth to a slave. "

Daiyu made Xueyan amused, and said, "That's all, I won't tease you anymore, where is there pear dew, you go get a cup and mix it with two cups, let's drink it together, look at your sweaty face as you run."

Xueyan replied briskly, "Hey." Daiyu drank the water, lay down on the step, closed her eyes and thought about the latest things. Daiyu always felt that something was wrong with Jia Min recently. Daiyu herself knew that she was a fake old man Children, but Jia Min didn't know about it, but now that he is only five years old, Jia Min has started to teach himself to be a housekeeper, not to mention, even showing the general ledger at home. It is very likely that I have never seen the general ledger of my mother's family in my life.
