The Red Chamber Collection

Taohua doesn't go home day and night, and concentrates on studying.Yang Dagui couldn't let go of the peach blossoms, and also stayed at Wang Fu'an's house.

It fell on Yang Dagui to pick up Taohua's younger brother Wang Yipu to and from school.

Wang Yipu said he was going to school, but he was really naughty.I am often beaten by my husband.When I came back, my palms were often swollen and I couldn't hold the chopsticks.Wang Fu'an hated that iron cannot be made into steel, and he had no time to control him, so he had to let him go.

Houses are built very quickly.In the blink of an eye, two months have passed, and the framework has basically risen.Four courtyards, four small buildings.The ground on the second floor is paved with square wood, all of the same color.Wall wood paneling.

Yang Mingyuan asked Daiyu for advice, and bought strange stones and fruit trees everywhere.

At first Yang Mingyuan didn't understand why he wanted to plant fruit trees?Daiyu smiled: "The ones I want to receive are not ordinary guests. These Miss Gege, Wang Gongbeiler, which one is a mortal? What rare flowers and plants have you never seen? I have to think about letting them go back from me. Although they There is no shortage of fruits to eat, but the ones I choose have a different flavor. That’s why I set up a kitchen in each courtyard. Instead of growing flowers, each courtyard grows its own vegetables and fruits. Pastoral fun."

Yang Mingyuan smiled, he really didn't understand.

Yang Mingyuan asked the bricklayer to start the stove again.Eight pots and four pots.Every kitchen is equipped with a big tank, pots and pans are all available.Every yard is such a structure.

The final project is paving.The road surface was raised and compacted with rams.It is covered with square bricks.On both sides of the curb, ditches were dug and paved with bricks to prevent the soil from collapsing.Then on the edge of the ditch, all kinds of peach trees were planted.

Daiyu followed Wang Fu'an again, and added another six or seven mu of land to the north.Zijuan asked Daiyu: "What are you doing here? There is a puddle over there. There is no food to grow. Is it wasted?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "It's low-lying, and it needs to be dug again to hold the water."

"Miss, you don't know how to raise geese and ducks, do you?"

"Of course not!" Daiyu laughed. "Chickens, geese and ducks, you have to find a way to do this. You can't let your little hooves eat ready-made ones. I dug that pond. But I want to raise fish!"

Zijuan just laughed: "Why do you know everything? You have never been in the countryside. You know everything at once?"

"Have you ever eaten pork, haven't you seen pigs run away? Isn't there fish in the pond in the Grand View Garden? I want to go there. Coming out of that ruined temple, along the way, I saw a lot of things I had never seen before. For example, pigs I've seen murlocs fishing. I've seen hunters hunting rabbits. You didn't even think of it, but I saw eagles catching hares! I thought then. I'm going to live in the countryside in the future. This The countryside, it's really interesting."

"Miss, I don't think there is a clue here now, and I need to take care of it."

"That's natural. When everything is ready in the yard, we will make a detailed regulation. Various people will take care of everything, and everyone has their own business."

Zicuckoo nodded.

The courtyard was completed.Daiyu sent someone to find Yang Mingyuan.Said: "These days, let the old man bother. This is 500 taels of thank you silver. Let's talk about it!"

Yang Mingyuan refused and said: "Miss, you are empty now, you keep it for your own use. I have no shortage of money, and now I think that if I get two words from Miss, it will be the greatest blessing in my life, Yang Mingyuan."

Daiyu smiled in surprise, "What word is so valuable?"

When Yang Mingyuan saw that Daiyu said so, he had connections.Then he knelt down suddenly and said: "I dare to propose it, but I know it is reckless. However, honoring the ancestors is what I pursue all my life. If Miss can inscribe the word 'Yang's Mansion', I will thank my whole family. I know that Miss's words should not be spread out easily. .So this old man has the guts to beg Miss, can you give me a word?"

Daiyu laughed and said: "Get up quickly, old man, too much praise for the little girl! The little girl's words are not on the table. If the old man thinks so, I will write it for you. It's just that I hope the old man will accept the money. Only the little girl can feel at ease!"

"Perhaps these two words are nothing to the young lady. But to my Yang family, they are hard to find. If I didn't take this opportunity to ask the young lady for two words, I would just spend more money, young lady You may not be willing to go outside!"

Zijuan said: "Old man, get up quickly. What you said is true. It's just that Miss thinks that the word "Mr. Yu" is not a sale of words, but a gift!"

"Miss, how can such a small amount of money be able to pass away? The old man said at the beginning that it is an honor to be able to serve the lady. Now this is my last project before I retire, and it is also my most eloquent project. A perfect end to my trivial skills! The old man is grateful to Miss, and I hope Miss has a long life!" After speaking, Yang Mingyuan kowtowed his head to the ground.

Daiyu hurriedly motioned for Wang Fuan, who was standing aside, to help Yang Mingyuan up.

Daiyu said: "Zicuckoo, grind ink!"

"Miss, can I allow this old man to grind ink for Miss?"

Daiyu was surprised, and Yang Mingyuan explained: "It has a different meaning to be able to grind ink for Miss and write the word 'Yang's House'!"

Daiyu didn't expect that this Yang Mingyuan valued this matter so much.It can be seen that the hidden existence of this swallow also brings economic benefits.

Daiyu held the big man in her hand, thought for a while, and wrote down the word "Yang Fu", which followed Zhao's style.

Yang Mingyuan scrutinized and scrutinized again and again, the sound of tsk tsk could be heard endlessly, and he was full of admiration.

Holding Daiyu's handwriting in his hands, Yang Mingyuan invited craftsmen to place it on the gate tower, and held a grand unveiling ceremony.

Yang Mingyuan can be regarded as a well-known person, so many people went there.Officials, officials and gentry all have contacts, and they are all envious.

Among them, Zhang Menglong, a wealthy businessman in Suzhou City, privately said with Yang Mingyuan: "Dare to ask Brother Yang to lead the younger brother, no matter how much money it costs, I also want to get the word 'Zhang's House'! If it works, I will definitely thank you!"

Yang Mingyuan shook his hand and said, "You don't know, she's still a girl, how can she show her face?"

"Brother Yang's words can't satisfy the younger brother. Why can I get it when my brother can get it?! It's nothing more than a matter of money, but I still have this!"

"It's not about the money!" Yang Mingyuan waved his hand and said, "This young lady has an aloof personality. I do things hard and she is satisfied. I begged to get this word! If it weren't for this journey, no matter how much money I have, I would have lost money." No way!"

"As the old saying goes, money can make ghosts grind. Now she is in business again, isn't it for making money? My brother won't help me, so I'll find her myself!"

"It's not that I won't help. You haven't been with this lady before. You'll know it when you see her! But there is something I have to say first. She may not see you!"

Zhang Menglong didn't believe it, and said boldly on the table: "I, Zhang, don't say I want her, even if I want her, I can get it. Is there any woman who doesn't like money?"

So there are people who flatter.

But someone persuaded: "Master Zhang, it's better not to mess with her! I think she got rid of it all, and now I'm still suffering in the son-in-law's mansion!"

Seeing the thumbs up from the speaker, Zhang Menglong asked, "What do you mean?"

"Master Zhizao Mansion!"

Zhang Menglong is a man of insight and knows countless people.Hearing this, he calmed down and said, "Is it really so powerful?"

Then someone said: "Master Zhang, do you know who she is? The younger sister of the current princess!"

"My God, Brother Yang didn't even say a word, I almost did it?"

Yang Mingyuan laughed loudly and said, "Come here, I'll toast you two glasses! It's not that I don't want to talk about it, there are some things, I'd better advise everyone to talk less!"

So each diverged from the topic.Zhang Menglong envied Yang Mingyuan for having such a blessing. Thinking about the future, maybe he could help her for a while if he had the opportunity, then it would not be difficult to ask her to write another word.

?

Zijuan laughed and said, "Miss' calligraphy is so valuable, why don't you write for others?"

Daiyu said: "Everyone has a different opinion. Although I don't mind my writing being out there now, it's just that the money that comes in this way is a bit out of character. If I don't become sisters with the princess, who will come to ask for my writing? I'm not a master of calligraphy. This Yang Mingyuan, since he values ​​this, it's just a convenience for him!"

Zicuckoo nodded.

After a while, Daiyu moved to the back.Xiao Cui, Feng Er, Cui Zhu, Qing Zhu also went to the back together.Daiyu asked Zijuan to move there together, but Zijuan refused to agree.Zijuan thought in private, how can he be on an equal footing with Miss?There is no such reason in this whole world.

Zicuckoo moved to the house next to the second door.The gate is locked, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter the backyard.Even if Zicuckoo is not there, there are many eyes staring at it.In the yard, everyone basically knows that it is not allowed to go behind!

Zijuan went to Daiyu almost every night to instruct the girl what to do and how to do it.Daiyu first said to Zijuan: "Where do I need you? There is nothing here but to sleep. Is it possible that I can't even sleep?!"

Zijuan smiled. With these little girls around, Zijuan would not joke with Daiyu.She has to lead by example.

However, the daily meals are also delivered by Zicuckoo.

Zijuan discussed with Wang Fuan to see if there was someone who could cook for Daiyu alone.

Wang Fu'an smiled and said, "What's the matter? Your aunt can cook. Didn't the lady say that she cooks delicious food? She can do it."

Zijuan said: "My aunt is not successful, there are many things to do every day, and there are many places for her to take care of."

Wang Fu'an thought for a while, and said: "Then let Taohua take some time every day to cook for the young lady. The rice cooked by Taohua is better than her mother's."

Apart from taking care of the workshop in front of her, Taohua also has to cook for Daiyu.That's three meals a day.Daiyu said: "From now on, peach blossoms will be eaten in the back, and there is no need to go to the big kitchen in front."

Taohua Yang Dagui eats three meals a day in the Lin Mansion.Zijuan asked Daiyu, "Let the couple move in so that they can see the house!"

Daiyu said: "In the future, it's up to you to decide. Ask me everything, I'm annoying!"

Zijuan said: "Miss, this is also the beginning. If you get on the right track in the future, it will be fine! But for small things in the future, I will make my own decisions, or discuss it with the uncle."

Zijuan arranged Taohua and the two into a room.

Daiyu asked Wang Fuan to arrange all the girls in the courtyard where she used to live.That's the only way to be safe.Li Xiao's mother took a woman and slept in the room where Zijuan used to live.Lock the door at night, so that it is isolated from the outside world.Daiyu finally felt relieved. L
