After marrying the sister next door

Qian Jinzhu is currently reading letters in the study in the mansion. The Qian family is prosperous, but there are few girls. The so-called rare is the most precious. Before she was ten years old, she was the only girl in the family. After a long time, Er Rongmu Ran can naturally learn a lot, and she also likes to do business, so her grandfather gave her the management of the restaurant in Qing'an Mansion.

Because the restaurant's turnover has been growing steadily since she took over, and in recent months, the turnover has increased sharply. She is regarded as a competitor by other cousins. These days, they have been annoyed by them. Isn't it because Grandpa intends to place a restaurant close to Qing'an Mansion? Did she give her the restaurant business in the territory of Linyi Mansion? It was only intentional but not true. These cousins ​​started to trip her up one by one, and they didn't even bother to think about why the old man did this.

The restaurant business has been in their hands for several years, and the turnover has been showing a downward trend, not to mention rising, just like when she first took over the restaurant in Qing'an Mansion, the restaurant hadn't launched a new menu for several years, who would? Always eat the same dishes.

When she opened the letter that Anji sent her, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth after reading it. Not to mention that she really misses Xiao Nanfeng a little bit, she just wanted to avoid the limelight and get a few new dishes from Anji by the way.

Qian Jinzhu put down the letter, leaned on the back of the chair and closed her eyes to think about business matters. She felt a pair of catkins resting on her shoulders, pressed with moderate strength, smelled the familiar body fragrance, and closed her eyes to enjoy it.

Anji didn't know that his letter really invited Qian Jinzhu. On the day the school was built, people from the whole village who hadn't worked came to watch, and the joy on everyone's faces was evident. This school is a brick building. Who can be unhappy to think of his own doll studying in such a bright classroom.

The layout of the co-educational school is in the form of a well-regulated quadrangle. The north and south are superimposed together to form a courtyard similar to two entrances, separated by a high wall in the middle. Male students go to the south gate, while female students go to the north gate.

The yard prepared for Zhou Chuanxi and his wife was built next to the homestead in the east of the village, close to the school and next to other houses in the village.

After An Yuan instructed everyone to put the brand-new tables and chairs in, the village head took the security chiefs to look at the rooms one by one. The five main rooms of the male school were connected, with tables and chairs for teachers in the middle and tables and stools for students on both sides.

Angie counted [-] desks each, which can accommodate [-] children. There is no way to design this way, because it is impossible to set up classes from the beginning with only one teacher. Children, these children will be picked out, and a small class will be set up for teaching. There are also tables and stools in the three wing rooms in the east and west. Zhou Chuanxi will decide how to use them in the future.

There are three rooms in the south, one of which is the gatehouse, and the other two are storage rooms, one for books, pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and the other for charcoal, charcoal basins and other sundries.

All the windows of the school are opened, so that the ventilation and drying will basically eliminate the smell of paint by the end of the month.

An Ji looked around and left the main force, returned to his wife and children, stretched out his arms to hug Nan Feng and said with a smile, "Let's go, mother will take you to the women's school."

An Nanfeng put his arms around his mother's neck and looked around curiously, popping out a few words that didn't follow each other from time to time, and didn't know what she wanted to express.

Baicha pursed her lips, walked beside Anji, and asked with a smile, "Can I come to attend classes in the future?" She heard Anji say that Mr. Lin is a talented woman, so she also wanted to learn from her.

An Ji smiled and said, "Of course, you want to learn painting. I'll tell her and let her teach you alone." For a woman with a big heart like Lin Yun, it's good for his wife to get in touch with her more. Well, it's just time to expand my wife's circle of friends, otherwise it would be too monotonous for Liu Ziyan to be a good friend.

The layout of the girls' school is similar to that of the boys' school. The only difference is that the east wing is decorated as an embroidery room and a kitchen is set up. At this time, many villagers are watching curiously here. Everyone is not very interested in the girls' school. , Girls are all going to get married, so they don’t need to learn so many things. If they have time, it’s better to work at home. Now that they can learn embroidery, everyone is interested in it. After all, if you learn embroidery well, you can make money to support your family. After that, there will be a reliance on marrying and going to the in-law's house. Thinking about it like this, everyone immediately decided to let all the girls in the family come to study. This opportunity is so rare that we can't let it go.

After a group of people looked at it, Ansheng called everyone together and said: "The school in the village has been built, and classes will officially start on the first day of next month. All boys and girls in the village who are five to 12 years old can come to the school to study. Registration starts today, and anyone whose child wants to go to school can come to my house to find Anyuan to register. This year's registration period ends at the end of the month, and if you miss it, you can wait until this time next year to register again. All the guardians will go back and pass on this message." After the class starts, everyone's progress is the same, so add a student every once in a while to make the teacher mess up.

"The children in the village have the opportunity to go to school to learn knowledge. This is a hard-won thing. Everyone should cherish it. Since the children have signed up for school, they should come to and from class on time every day. No one should fish for three days and two days Posting on the net, other people's children have learned it, but yours will never learn it, do you still want your wife to teach your children alone?" The children in the village help the family when they are eight or nine years old. This is because they are afraid that they will make their children work and not allow them to attend classes on time.

After listening to it, everyone said that they must let their children come to class on time. The village chief is right. The adults at home should do more. Now most of the families in the village have a stable income. It’s easier to think about it, but it can’t be done. Let your own children be left behind, or wait for other people's children to become masters of talent, and they will not regret dying if they miss it because they instruct their children to work.

An Sheng just finished speaking, and seeing that everyone had no objection, the people dispersed, and Anji's family also walked back. When they passed by An Sheng's house, the two went in with Nanfeng in their arms to see Liu Ziyan and the child.

Baicha went into the back room and talked with Liu Ziyan, Anji came to sit in the main room with Nanfeng in his arms, not disturbing them talking about themselves.

An Sheng simply took the child out, looked at Anji and said proudly: "Look, my daughter looks pretty." His daughter looks like Ziyan, and she must be a beautiful woman when she grows up. Ziyan named her daughter It is called Xinyue, and I hope that the child will have a moon-like mind.

An Ji saw An Sheng hugging his daughter with a smirk on his face, trying to show her how handsome her daughter was, and looked down at his own daughter, and couldn't help giving him a blank look, her daughter was not bad either.

An Nanfeng looked at the child curiously. Hearing that his mother said it was his younger sister, he immediately shouted happily, "Sister." He raised his little arm and was about to grab it.

An Sheng looked at it and immediately hid in the past. He hugged his daughter and smiled at Nanfeng, "My sister is too young to play with Nanfeng." Seeing that the daughter was a little bit babbling, he quickly sent him back to the house to feed his daughter-in-law. So he didn't stay in the room too long, put down the child and went out to the main room to talk with Anji.

Anji didn't see Anton, so she couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What about Xiaodong, don't ignore your son just because you have a daughter." She said this to remind Xiaodong that child is sensible but also sensitive, and his father and mother remarried It's pitiful enough in itself, I hope An Sheng can take care of his feelings.

An Sheng laughed after hearing this: "I let Xiaodong go out to play, don't worry, Ziyan and I will not ignore Xiaodong, Xiaodong also likes his sister very much, and will accompany Ziyan and Xinyue in the room for a long time every day. "He thinks how boys can stay at home all day, they should play more with the children in the village, so he encourages his son to go out to play more.

Anji nodded and changed the subject and said: "Yesterday, Anyi loaded a carload of medicinal materials to Mao's drugstore, and the shopkeeper Mao asked him to bring me a sentence, asking me to go to his shop to discuss in detail tomorrow, you can come with me tomorrow." "Once she cooperates with Mao's drug store, An Sheng will have to follow her in this matter, so she thought about letting An Sheng participate in it from the beginning, so that she can take over directly. The shopkeeper Mao made an appointment tomorrow, and she felt afraid that she would have to wait for someone , otherwise why not let her go today.

An Sheng responded with a smile when he heard the words. During this time, because he had to take care of his wife, he didn't run around selling wine. Although An Ji didn't say anything, he was also a little embarrassed. He had already hired an aunt in the village to take care of Zi Yan and the children. , I can go out and run for a long time in the future.

An Sheng frowned and expressed his thoughts: "I plan to take a few people to various counties in Qing'an Prefecture to sell medicinal wine next month, and you will have to take care of my home." Anling medicinal wine has already opened the market in Fucheng, now go to The counties will definitely gain something. He only needs to ask Fucheng to keep two people, and all the others will be transferred back to run the new market with him.

Seeing that An Sheng knew what was in his mind, An Ji smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, don't worry, you have to work hard to earn more money, and then you can prepare a generous dowry for your daughter, right?"

After hearing this, An Sheng agreed very much. He really had to work hard and earn more money so that his wife and children could live a good life.

Anji waited for his daughter-in-law to come out before saying goodbye and going home. As soon as he left the gate of Ansheng's house, the little boy An Nanfeng strongly expressed his desire to go down for a walk. He pointed his little hand on the ground and said in a childlike voice, "Mother, get off, let's go." Then he began to twist Move your body and want to get down to the ground.

Anji looked at it and smiled, put her down, bent down and held her little hand, and walked slowly with her. Baicha took the other hand of Nanfeng, and An Nanfeng, led by the two mothers, walked home steadily. Walking, Xiaozui kept talking all the way, but of course he uttered single-syllable or double-syllable words, giggling from time to time.

Anji and Baicha cooperated with her lovingly. Anji looked at his wife and smiled, "I'll go to the county seat tomorrow, and I'll just buy something that's missing for the week."

As the end of the month is approaching and there are only a few days left before the little guy’s birthday, all the preparations must be made. The village doesn’t hold this, so they didn’t plan to invite anyone to visit, but An Nanfeng’s first birthday ceremony, You have to be fully prepared, right?

Bai Cha smiled lightly when he heard the words: "I read in the book that a red cloth should be spread on the round table for the first birthday ceremony, and on it are abacus, books, wealth stars, musical instruments, official star seals, food boxes, general helmets, string bells, and Luban buckets. , wine order chips, etc., these are used by boys, not suitable for Nanfeng to catch Zhou Zhou, Nanfeng is a girl, if she catches the official star seal, can she still be an official?" Even if you want to explain Nanfeng reluctantly It doesn't even make sense to be an official's wife, because her Nanfeng family is a female householder, so how can the official master marry in!

Anji smiled when she heard the words: "That's not easy, buy all these first, let's add some things for girls, such as dressing boxes, handle mirrors, embroidery, jade hairpins, anyway. Add whatever you want."

Bai Cha was amused, gave An Ji a glance and said with a smile: "Those things have meanings, what do you add these things to?"

Anji chuckled: "What did Nanfeng catch, see if I can tell the meaning." Aren't these things all the meanings given by people, and it will be good to rely on the good ones at that time.

The two talked and laughed all the way home, because Anji was going to the county seat tomorrow, and Baicha took out a big package for Anji to deliver to Da Ya tomorrow. The fine cotton cloth is very soft, and it is the best for children to wear. She brought a few for Zi Yan, and here are the rest.

Anji saw it and knew that anyone like Nanfeng who had never been sick since childhood and was strong and smart would wear clothes for newborns, saying that they were easy to wear for babies in old clothes.
