Dizi Policy

After coming out of Yijing Garden, it took about a quarter of an hour to arrive at Chenxiangju, where Sifang is located. Unlike the fake crampedness of the big house, the courtyard of Sifang is really small. There are a few pomegranate trees scattered in front of the courtyard, tall and tall. The pomegranate tree has been dormant for a winter, and now the dark brown branches are covered with small green leaves. The branches were swayed by the heavy rain, and the young leaves were wrapped in the rain, but they looked vivid and vivid.The pomegranate has many seeds, which symbolizes many children and many blessings. It is ironic that it is planted at the door of the fourth house. Among the five houses of the Li family, the fourth house is the most withered. Not to mention that the fourth master left within two years of getting married. Just talking about the heirs he left behind, there are only two sons and daughters. The son is the fifth young master in the mansion, and he brought out a weak disease from his mother's womb. There are two ways to support a living.

Knocking on the courtyard door of Chenxiangju, a woman wearing a dark brown beige and a sauce-colored skirt came out. The woman looked about 50 to [-] years old, and her gray hair was meticulously pulled into an ordinary snail bun. A silver hairpin was inserted into her body, and she looked very neat. The woman had a smile on her face, which made people look a little more friendly. This woman was Mother Liang, also known as Liang Xiaoli. House's.

The four wives are in charge of the central feeder. Of course, the division of labor is high and low, and there are lucrative and unobtainable ones. According to the status of the fourth wife Li, such lucrative places as shopping and kitchen are of course out of her turn. On the contrary, the tasks that are thankless and have no money or dignity are done by the Fourth Madam. She takes care of the gardening and sweeping in Li's mansion, and Liang Xiaoli's husband, Liang Xiaoli, is in charge of the garden. , a soft old man.

Don't look at garden gardening, sweeping and so on, but there are so many servants and servants under him, they are all over the Hou's mansion, these are all eyeliners!

Nanny Liang greeted her in person, apparently knowing that Li Jingchen and his party had been shut down in Yijing Garden, and curtsied to salute. Nanny Liang smiled a little before saying anything, "Third Young Master, Seventh Young Master, and Fourth Young Miss, hello, first!" Seeing the old slave Xizhu, I knew that there must be a noble person coming to the door today, isn't it? The young lady was so happy that she forgot to let the young master and young lady in, so she should be beaten!"

"Nurse is serious. Nephews and nieces should come to visit my aunt. What kind of noble person are you?" Li Jingchen also answered the words with a smile.

Following Mammy Liang into the Chenxiang Residence, the goal is the three main rooms, the windows in that Liang building are also exquisite and elegant, there are two side rooms on the left and right, and the door curtains are all covered.Nanny Liang was about to lead Li Jingchen and his party to the middle hall when the door of the east wing opened, and a woman stood at the door and said, "Nurse, brother Hui is coughing a bit, I don't worry, little girl looks at him, you go to Hui Brother, take care of me, don't catch the wind and catch cold again." After speaking to Madam Liang, the woman called Li Jingchen and the three of them to the east wing, and couldn't stop praising Li Jingchen. The three of them are good-looking, just looking at them is seductive.

Li Jingchen glanced in the direction of the study, it turned out that Li Jinghui did not follow the old lady to burn incense.

Nanny Liang glanced at her wife, sighed insignificantly, led Li Jingchen and his party to the East Wing and left. It should be Li Jinghui, the only young master who took care of the fourth bedroom.

The woman waiting in the East Wing was Mrs. Li, wearing a navy blue jacket and trousers, all half-worn household clothes, her head was also wrapped in a square scarf of the same color, she had no accessories on her body, and looked very casual.After the three Li Jingchen brothers and sisters sat down, no one came to bring tea, and there were several dried fruit snacks on the table, which looked like they had been used since the New Year.

Li Jingchen raised his eyebrows. It didn't look like he was entertaining guests. Looking at Mrs. Li who was sitting across from him, he remembered that Mrs. Li married into the Li family at the age of 17. She was not only beautiful, but she was also a pretty lady. The age of one year is the most beautiful age, but the current dress is 28 years older, looking dull and old, and I don't know if it is because I am concerned about my status as a widow or because I am stingy and don't want to spend half a cent on dressing up. money.

Before saying a few words, the curtain was lifted, and a servant woman came in with a tea tray. Behind the servant woman was a little girl about seven or eight years old. Disrespect to guests.

The little girl was timid, with one hand tightly clutching the servant girl's skirt, she followed closely when the servant girl took a step, seeing a stranger looking at her, the other hand twisted the hem of her dress nervously, the high waist The chest-length skirt looked empty on her.There are obvious creases on the clothes. It is rare to see the clothes worn by the treasures. They are usually hidden in the bottom of the box. Whenever they are worn out, they are meant to meet valuable guests.

The behavior of the fourth concubine, Mrs. Zhang, did not please Mrs. Li, but it made the smile on Li Jingchen's face even stronger.

The daughters of this generation of the Li family are all named after peony, like Li Jingchen's younger sister, Li Weizi, who is the extremely gorgeous peony Weizi.The concubine of the fourth room is called Tuanhong. Although it is a peony, it is not as good as the rare Wei Ziyao Huang, but an ordinary red peony.

Li Weizi is a child, and he hasn't seen a girl who is about the same age as him for a long time. When he saw Li Tuanhong, he was very curious. His dark eyes never left Li Tuanhong's body. Li Weizi is not curious, but envious. Although she looks only seven or eight years old, she is actually ten years old, even ten days older than the fourth son's son-in-law, and she already knows a lot of things.

Her humble status allowed her to know the difference between concubine and concubine since she was a child. Li Weizi is beyond her reach. Even if the other party has no parents and is currently in an embarrassing status in the mansion, the status of the second wife's son and daughter is still beyond her reach. Yes, although he was timid, he always remembered his aunt's advice in his heart, and smiled sweetly at Li Weizi, which attracted Li Weizi's attention even more.

Li Weizi tilted his head and returned a big smile.

The interaction between the two little girls did not attract the attention of the adults. When Li saw that it was Zhang who came in, he even brought a pot of good tea. The expression on his face was not complicated. He hated Zhang for bringing tea here on his own initiative, but also felt distressed. Her pot of tea is so bad, and this pot of tea would cost at least a penny in an outside teahouse, so I feel so sorry for her.

"Tuanhong is not in good health. It's raining today, Mrs. Zhang, why did you bring her out? If she catches the wind or catches the cold, it will cost another sum of money." After all, Mrs. Li still couldn't bear her. Those silver taels frowned and looked at the clothes on Zhang Shi and Li Tuanhong, "Go back soon."

"Auntie, is this sister Tuanhong? I haven't seen her before. Shen'er and Xiao Moer have met your three sisters. I still have a gift for sister Tuanhong." Li Jingchen didn't give Li Shi a chance to chase her away. He spoke first.

I gave Li Shi a ruler and Li Jinghui an inkstone before, and when they arrived at Tuanhong, there were two naive little crystal rabbits. The eyes of the little rabbits were rubies, and the color was very good. Grab it.

"Thank you, Third Young Master, Miss San has been thinking about you all the time, and she still wants to go to Wuheng Garden for a walk, but the weather makes it impossible." Mrs. Zhang bit the bullet and said this while facing Mrs. Li's gaze.

"Sister Tuanhong is very cute. When the weather gets better in the future, you can come to Wuhengyuan to play." Li Jingchen smiled and said the words of welcome. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Mrs. Li, and found that Mrs. Li's mind is now fully focused. On the pair of little rabbits held by Li Tuanhong's small hands, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitched mockingly.

"Well, the third lady will definitely go." Zhang's cautious actions brought out some relief. Li Jingchen said this because he didn't hate them, and he was loved by the eldest son of the second wife. Maybe the days of Tuanhong will be much better in the future .Mrs. Zhang is just a little concubine in a deep house. She thinks very simply. The three brothers and sisters Li Jingchen are the legitimate sons and daughters of the Li family. The second room, who has lost her parents and is in an embarrassing situation, will never recover from it. As long as Li Jingchen is in a good mood, it is enough for the third lady to live well if it leaks through the cracks of her fingers.Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the second room is no longer good, she just took the third lady to meet her brothers and sisters, which is not a big mistake.I have to say that Mrs. Zhang made the right bet.

The attitude of the owner of Chenxiangju is obviously not welcoming. Li Jingchen took his younger siblings to sit for a while and left. When he left, Li Jingchen turned his head to look at the courtyard gate of Chenxiangju. The young green leaves on the branches are full of vitality.

Chen Xiang lived in the East Wing, Liang Xiaoli opened the curtain and walked in, and saw his wife playing with two cute crystal rabbits, "Madam, brother Hui is tired after reading for a while, and now he is resting."

Mrs. Li frowned and put down the crystal rabbit, "I just read the book for a while, why am I tired? Brother Hui wants to shine in the door, how can you relax, nanny, you should tell him a few more times. By the way, Mammy, don't you think this crystal rabbit is very beautiful? In two days, you will let your son take it out and pawn it quietly, and buy some good bird's nests back." When it came to buying bird's nests, Li Shi felt a little pained, but when he thought of This is for the sake of his son's health, so he can bear it. As long as his son is prosperous, let alone bird's nest, even the best golden silk bird's nest, he can afford it.

Nanny Liang didn't like the way Mrs. Li got into Qian's eyes, so she couldn't help persuading her: "Ma'am, the third young master, the seventh young master, and the fourth young lady are here, you should change your clothes, see you in the middle hall, and put on some good ones." Fruit cakes, tea."

Mrs. Li pursed her mouth in disdain, "Nurse, the clothes on me are also of the best quality, and they are not better than those silk and satin ones. Besides, I took out those good clothes for entertaining guests. After putting them on, I have to wash them again. The clothes are starched. If there is too much, it is easy to break, and if it breaks, you have to make a new one, which will cost several dollars, which is not worth it. There are also tea and snacks. I see that these snacks are also very good. The old lady gave it to you." After looking at the tea, she found the best melon slices, so Mrs. Zhang brought it out and poured it for the boys in the second room, but they didn't even taste it, looking at it was still warm Mrs. Li was reluctant to waste the tea, so she picked up a few sips and drank it by herself. She picked up the pot of tea, picked up Li Jingchen and gave it to the ruler and the inkstone, "Nurse, don't think about what you have, think about how to give it to Brother Hui." It is serious to build up your body, he has lost some weight recently."

Mrs. Li lifted the curtain and went out. Madam Liang sighed helplessly. She also often said that it was useless to tell Mrs. Li not to take money so seriously.Her young lady used to be a beautiful girl with a sweet dream, how come she has become like this now, penny-pinching and stingy, alas.

After returning, Li Jingchen asked Mrs. Li to call the documents and Wu Xingde over, and took out the ledger from the cage, and asked them to check the property of the second room before the old lady came back, and recover the previous year's income .

Li Jingchen's mother, Jiang Rouwan, is the daughter of Duke Wei's family and the direct sister of the current Duke of Wei. She was still talked about with red makeup back then.Of course, the property of the second bedroom is not only the dowry of the mistress, Li Wenyu's field shop is also very rich.

Although Li Wenyu was not the child that Lord Hou expected and did not grow up in front of the old lady Wu, but the old lady loved him very much. After the old lady died, her dowry and property were left to Li Wenyu.

With a hatchback and a plus, there are so many properties in the second room that make people jealous. It is difficult for their three children to keep their property.

Probably because Mrs. Li went to the kitchen to make trouble in the morning, so the lunch was delivered on time, and it looked good, but a closer look revealed that it was too cold and delivered.Li Shi was so angry that she carried the food box and wanted to argue with the people in the kitchen, but Li Jingchen stopped her, looked at the cold food, and asked thoughtfully, "Mother, is Butler Wen there?"

Mrs. Li knew this, "I saw Steward Wen leaving in a hurry early in the morning, and the servant asked my sister-in-law, saying that it was because of the heavy rain that the old lady and other people in the mansion were trapped in the temple, and now life is very inconvenient , and sent someone back to ask Steward Wen to bring some things there, Steward Wen probably isn’t in the mansion right now.”

Li Jingchen tapped his fingers on the countertop twice, "Mama, let Uncle Sun go outside to buy some rice, noodles, vegetables, and some firewood and a stove. We will use the outermost room of the west wing as a small kitchen. If there is a chance, build a stove and completely build a small kitchen."

The sad look on Li's face disappeared, and she smiled, "It's a good feeling. It will be convenient for Nu and Ding Xiang to make a tonic for the young master and miss in the future." Ding Xiang is the maiden name of the nanny Liu.

Li Jingchen didn't seem optimistic, the small kitchen was just a temporary solution, and it might be withdrawn when the old lady came back. "Mommy, I remember my mother's housekeepers and many of my father's former long-term companions who stayed in the mansion. Who are they? Do you still remember them?"

"Remember, it is said that the mother-in-law and the girl were left to look at the school, but they have not seen anyone until now. What is the young master going to do? Most of them are not living very well now, and they all hope that the young master can start again Use them." Although it hasn't been long since he came back, Mrs. Li has already known the current situation of some people, and those who stayed at the beginning were not doing well.

Li Wenyu and Jiang Rouwan's family have been away for many years. When they were the Marquis, those people were the direct servants of the Marquis of Yangling, and some of them were decent. But when Li Wenyu "suicide in fear of crime", the limelight immediately fell, and many people were robbed of their jobs. Son, without a livelihood, and being ridiculed by others, it's a miserable life.The world is so cold, not long after Li Wenyu passed away, some people couldn't help but make trouble, and the first thing they targeted was the servants who followed Li Wenyu.

"Ma'am, pay more attention to these people and observe who is available and who is not. There are really too few people in the yard, and it's not a problem to keep my aunt's people all the time. It's better to use your own people. "Li Jingchen turned around today, and he didn't want to wait for the old lady to come back to replenish the manpower, and if the old lady Ma can do something to treat them slowly, then he can do something to slap them in the face, and whoever suffers will win It's cheap, I don't know yet.
