Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

While Wang Jinyi was worried, the ten-day holiday arrived.

In the spring, the morning light is dim and the sun has not yet fully emerged from the clouds.

Before the hour of Mao, the servants who were shuttling around in the second courtyard had already cleaned up every corner of the yard.

The servants all knew that their masters were diligent and they could not be lazy. Nanny Wang had already gone in and out of the rooms to check. The study items of the two masters had been tidied up.

The mother had already packed everything in the main room, and as usual, Qing'er went out to pick up the young lady.

In the west wing, neither of the two maids knew how to comb the young lady's hair, so this job naturally fell to the wet nurse.

After the two small flower buds were combed, the nurse carefully decorated them with tender yellow flower spikes.

Wang Jinyi seemed like a newly emerged forsythia in spring, bright and beautiful. Little Wang Jinyi began her day of studying hard.

Wang Jinyi was as excited as a bird flying happily in the yard. No one knew why this little girl was so motivated.

The three people who followed her out of the west wing even felt a little sorry for their young lady. The little girl had suffered so much.

Especially Zhu Yu, since she was assigned to the west wing of the second house.

I originally thought that taking care of a three-year-old girl was just a job of coaxing a child, but I didn't expect that a three-year-old girl doesn't need to be coaxed, and the master's life is harder than hers.

It's just that the way of hard work is different. Although I don't have to work hard in the fields from dawn to dusk, I study non-stop every day, and I feel a headache just by listening to it.

Every day when the young lady came to the upper room, she would recite long articles. Zhu Yu simply couldn't stand it. Sometimes, she felt that the young lady's life was really not easy.

In the afternoon, we don't rest, we have to learn all kinds of household chores. The first thing we have to learn is accounting. I heard that we have to learn correspondence and various forms of correspondence.

In the evening, the young lady would tell stories and write various stories about birds and flowers with the lady. Sometimes the young lady was so sleepy that she fell asleep when she was sent back to the west wing.

Recently.

The wet nurses were extremely distressed because, after all, the child was raised by their own breasts. Seeing how hard the young lady worked, everyone in the west wing was extremely motivated.

There is no need to talk about Qingyu. She originally needed to work during the day, taking care of the young lady's daily life, and work night shifts. Now she has added the work of accounting.

Ever since Zhuyu passed the assessment with difficulty and saved half a month's salary, she began to wish every day that she could remember clearly which foot the young lady took when she went out. If she couldn't help the young lady, she could only serve her well.

In addition to being an invisible person, the wet nurse also needs to take care of the young lady's daily life.

Look! The nanny appeared and picked up Wang Jinyi in time. Wang Jinyi was sent to the upper room of her house.

The mother looked at her daughter and bowed to greet her, then began her first daily routine of the day, reciting her homework.

All the servants in the yard listened attentively. The young lady was reciting the "Promoting Female Virtues" from the "Daughter's Book". In the middle, her mother interrupted to give her constant reminders. In the end, the mother and daughter clapped their hands to celebrate the successful conclusion.

This time, the mother and daughter set out early to go to the grandmother's upper room. The second room's group walked through the garden, bypassed the landscaping, and just stepped onto the small bridge. A cheerful voice came from behind,

"Jin'er, Jin'er, wait for me!"

The second wife and her daughter stopped on the small bridge.

When I turned around, I saw a girl with a round face, a big smile, two cute flower buds in her hair, and long hanging braids. She was jumping out of the gate of the big house with her short legs and running towards this side from afar.

Following closely behind was an invisible person, who was Wang Yueyi's head maid.

The two girls were of similar age, the girl was about 2 years older than Wang Yueyi, and was running towards her, chasing her young lady.

Wang Jinyi quickly slid from the nurse's arms to the ground and ran to greet this ever-cheerful little sister.

When the two girls held hands and followed their mothers into their grandmother's upper room, their grandmother was looking through something.

After everyone finished greeting each other, they took their seats in order. Today happened to be the tenth day, the day when the servants changed their cards.

That is, the doormen take turns to avoid staying at a certain door for too long and covering up for each other and cheating.

My mother also followed suit and distributed the cards. Those who came in and out were all people within the second gate, that is, they were all the gatekeepers.

The old housekeeper Wang Qian was led into the upper room by the maid at the second gate. After greeting them, he said:

"The master said that everyone should not have breakfast upstairs. Everyone should go back to their rooms. The servants in each room should go back first, and the masters should stay."

Wang Jinyi, who was sitting on his mother's lap, clearly felt his mother's body stiffen, and then she lowered her head in suppression.

Wang Jinyi guessed what his grandfather was going to say, which might be related to the second house. Wang Jinyi held his mother's hand tightly and shook it vigorously, but his mother did not respond.

The grandmother brought the two wives and children to the door of the upper house to pick up the men in the family who had returned from their ten-day vacation.

Grandma always had a gentle smile, and even when she was angry, she didn't seem so scary. But Wang Jinyi knew that she was a person who handled domestic affairs in an orderly and decisive manner.

A smile does not mean that a person is weak. On the contrary, Wang Jinyi feels that her grandmother is very much like the person in her previous life who made harsh remarks with a professional smile.

From afar, I saw the doorway with hanging flowers at the second gate, and people were walking in in an orderly manner. The first one to walk in should be my grandfather!

As he got closer, the face became clearer and clearer, and Wang Jinyi always felt that the face looked somewhat familiar.

This face is 70% similar to Daddy's, but more mature and steady than Daddy's, with thicker brows, bright eyes, and a tall and upright stature.

Behind them are the great uncle, dad, Yue'er's three brothers, and finally the brother Wang Wendong.

When she saw the person coming, Wang Yueyi jumped up and was about to call for help, but her aunt intervened in time and covered her daughter's mouth:

"You must observe etiquette and not abandon your family education. When your grandmother is silent, you must not speak nonsense."

Wang Yueyi looked up at her mother's serious face, calmed down, and stood behind her mother obediently.

She covered her mouth with her little hands, and her eyes kept looking at this and that. Her eyeballs kept rolling around, and finally her eyes met Wang Jinyi's. The two little girls laughed mischievously.

But I didn't dare make too much noise.

When the people from both sides approached and the greetings were over, the people from the first wife followed their grandparents into the Mingtang, and Wang Jinyi followed his parents and the first wife into the Mingtang.

In the Mingtang, grandparents sit in the center seat facing the door.

On the left, at the bottom, is my uncle Wang Shuyuan, followed by my eldest son Wang Wenzhen, my second son Wang Wenbo, and my third son Wang Wenzhen. My eldest aunt and Wang Yueyi are sitting on a row of chairs behind the father and son.

At the lower right, my father and brother are sitting in the front, and my mother and Wang Jinyi are sitting in the row behind my father.

Wang Jinyi thought that now all the masters in this house were present, and it looked like something big was about to be announced.

As expected, my grandfather's calm voice slowly rang out:

“I have a few things to tell you at home.

One reason was that Shu Yuan needed an opportunity to gain experience, and there happened to be a vacancy for the position of educational commissioner in Xunnan County.

After the eldest son of the family was approved, they moved to Xunan County and sent someone to the county to make arrangements and prepare for the trip.

The second is the book ceremony, and you can take part in the autumn examination this autumn.

Third, Shuyan’s friend is coming to the city and will stay temporarily in the Sanfangyuan.

Okay, let’s talk about other things later, let’s go back.”

After saying this, my grandfather picked up the tea bowl and started to chase people away.

Wang Jinyi, a modern soul, couldn't handle it at all. What was going on? Both sons were sent away, the eldest son was sent to Xunnan County, and the father seemed to be leaving, so he brought a friend of the third uncle to live at home?

If someone has a mental problem, he will definitely suspect that this is his grandfather's mistress, who is trying to take over his grandfather's nest and start some petty struggle in the backyard.

This ancient parent doesn’t even give people a chance to speak!

Wang Jinyi: "Grandfather, I..."

Before I could finish my words, my mother covered Wang Jinyi's mouth.

"No, you have to tell mother, and then mother will ask grandfather if you can tell. Do you understand?"

Wang Jinyi, with her mouth covered, nodded wildly and finally got rid of her mother's hand.

"Mother, I want to talk to Grandfather."

The mother lowered her voice and asked, "What do you want to say?"

After all, no matter how sensible a three-year-old child is, he is afraid of saying something heartless and making others unhappy.

“Can my dream be sold for money?”

The mother was relieved, so she leaned behind her husband Wang Shuli and said a few simple words.

Wang Shuli leaned slightly to the side and glanced at the mother and daughter. He asked:

"Really?"

Mother nodded.

Dad stood up:

"Father, I want to ask you about a child."

The grandfather originally thought that his son would suppress the child's mischief, but he didn't expect that the little girl from the second room seemed to be in real trouble.

"speak."

Dad turned around, reached over the back of the chair, and took his daughter from his wife's arms.

"Jin'er, Grandfather has agreed to let you speak. Tell us what you think."

Even speaking requires approval from various levels. All right! Just follow your local customs.

"Grandfather, I'm Jin'er."

The grandfather put down the tea bowl, and the eyes of the whole family were focused on the child. Wang Minzhang had been an official for many years, and once held the position of the third-rank minister of rites.

I have met all kinds of people, but this is the first time I have seen a 3-year-old child who is not afraid of the gazes of others, the pressure from elders, and dares to face them directly and express his own ideas.

I couldn't help but take a careful look, but I didn't have any impression of her as I had only seen her a few times.

The girl never went out of the house, so she was isolated from the outside world. Men and women sat at separate tables during meals, so there was even less chance for them to meet.

We only have the chance to see each other briefly during a few major festivals in a year.

At that time, the little guy had not grown up yet, so I have no impression of him at all.

I vaguely remember this child... it seemed... yes! It was on the same day, both at Lingyun Temple.

"Jin'er, do you have anything to say to me?"

Grandfather's tone of voice softened a little.

"Well, Grandpa, do you remember when I was in a car accident?"

"Car accident?"

"Oh, you mean the overturned carriage you were riding in?"

"Well, Grandfather, that's not it."

Wang Jinyi quickly worked out an outline in his head. He decided to start from here and said.

"I went to sleep afterwards."

"Well, you slept for two days and two nights, and scared everyone." Grandma glanced at grandpa and interjected.

It seems that my grandfather didn't know that he was in trouble. It's good that someone knows it.

"Later, when I went to sleep at night, I always had dreams."

Before Wang Jinyi could finish his words, a voice rang out.

"I know, Jin'er, you're dreaming..."

Before the voice could finish its words, it was covered again.

This must have been suppressed by my aunt again...
