Daiyu's stepmother is not easy to be

Wen Jiao was immersed in his thoughts for half a day, and only came back to his senses when he returned to the house.

She looked at Daiyu with a joyful face and worried eyes, and felt that it was a happy event after all. Although Daiyu had a much more cheerful personality, she was still a clever child with a more open mind than a dry mind.

Even if she is like this, even Daiyu can't be happy.Wen Jiao put away his worries, and once he entered the house, he ordered to go to the nearest good day to travel.

After washing his hands and changing his clothes, Wen Jiao took the family's population booklet and warehouse booklet, and began to prepare for leaving Beijing with Daiyu.

Wen Jiao thought about Eunuch Xia's words, and said to Daiyu, "Today is September [-]th, and in a few days it will be October."

"Today, eunuch Xia came and said that it is best for us to arrive in Ganzhou before December. It will take a month at the fastest to take a carriage on this road, and there is not much time left for us to pack our things."

Wen Jiao laughed and said: "So I have to ask Yu'er to help me more, otherwise when we leave, there will be a lot of things that have not been packed, and we can't get all the people together. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to make a joke? "

Daiyu raised her eyebrows and smiled pleasantly, "Mother, shall I go too?"

Wen Jiao pretended to be surprised and said: "It turns out that Yu'er didn't want to go... well, then I have to think about whether to send you to the palace or go to your grandfather's house..."

Daiyu quickly went around to Wen Jiao's side, and said coquettishly: "Mother, don't tease me! If you don't take me with you, I will secretly hide in the carriage and follow!"

Wen Jiao pretended to be angry and said: "You are still capable, let's see how I deal with you!"

As she spoke, Wen Jiao breathed on her hands twice, as if to scratch Daiyu, but Daiyu hurriedly begged for mercy, the mother and daughter made a fuss, their faces hurt from laughing, and then they sat down and started to talk.

Wen Jiao first turned the population booklet to the page in Daiyu's yard, and said to her, "Now in your yard, there are four second-class, four third-class, four sweeping girls, and Mother Wang, four The little girl who was sweeping, and the four wives, add up to 21 people, certainly not all of them can be taken with me."

"There are those who are old and in poor health, or there are orphans and widows among the girls, you can think about who to take and who not to take."

Daiyu looked at the names for a while, and already had a rough idea in her heart.

Even if she didn't need to ask, she was very clear about the people in her yard, their family situation, their personalities, their behaviors, and what they could do.

She made a mental note of a few people who she wanted to go back and ask, and she could understand these things in half a day, so she asked again: "Mother, what else do you want me to do?"

Wen Jiao took Daiyu's warehouse account book again, and said with a smile, "I know you're capable, so this time I'll let you pack up the things you took to the northwest."

"As the saying goes, 'the road to a poor family'. Besides, when we get there, the Governor's Mansion is probably an empty house with nothing in it."

"So the things you need for daily use, from as small as washbasins, towels, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, to as large as bathtub screens and arhat beds, you can bring everything you can bring."

"If you forget something, don't say that buying it now is a waste of manpower and money. I'm afraid that you won't be able to buy what you are used to and what you want, and you will be wronged."

Daiyu nodded as she listened, and Wen Jiao instructed again: "Especially, bring two extra big woolen clothes and leather boots. When it happens to be winter in Ganzhou, don't freeze it."

After saying this, Wen Jiao took a look at Daiyu's height and saw that she was more than three inches taller this year than last year, so she asked Bai Lu, "Have you made all the big woolen clothes for this year?"

Bai Lu hurriedly replied: "It's getting cold, and the needle thread said that it will come in within two days."

Wen Jiao nodded and said: "Go and open the box to find a good fox fur, tell the needle and thread, and then put two inches for the girl to make two pieces." To save Daiyu from making a fuss in the past two months, the cloak will be shorter next spring It's not beautiful.

Seeing Daiyu sitting there smiling with joy in the corners of her eyes and brows, Wen Jiao was also happy in her heart, and urged her, "Go back and clean up."

"By the way, tell Mr. Ge and Qing'er for me that we will be going out in about mid-October, and let them pack up quickly."

Daiyu agreed, jumped off the kang, put on thin boots, and was about to leave. After taking two steps, she turned her head and asked hesitantly, "Mother, what about Sister Yinglian and Aunt Feng..."

Wen Jiao frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "You can just talk to Qing'er, Yinglian's side, I'll go over here in person after I finish my work later."

Daiyu walked back to Wen Jiao's side again, and begged with a smile: "Then mother, please talk to Aunt Feng, otherwise we will all go away, sister Yinglian is at home alone, how lonely."

Wen Jiao smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry."

Seeing Daiyu leave, Wen Jiao rubbed her temples, closed her eyes and leaned on the pillow, and said one by one: "Bai Lu, don't serve me by my side before you leave, go to Nanny Chen to learn how Take care of Qingyu."

"Mrs. Chen is getting old, and she can't stand the long journey. Let her stay and watch the house."

"In the future, I will hand over the sapphire to you. When we settle down in the northwest, I will prepare for you and the little doctor Chen..."

Having said that, Wen Jiao elongated his tone on purpose, and opened one eye to wink at Bai Lu.

The seven or eight girls in the room heard it, and while blushing, Bai Lu solemnly agreed, "Madam, don't worry, the young master will never make a mistake."

Wen Jiao could trust Bai Lu's ability, she nodded with a smile, and Bai Lu packed her things and went to Qing Yu's side.

At this time, the people who happened to watch the day came back and reported that October 21 was an auspicious day for the zodiac, and Wen Jiao calculated that there were only 25 days.

In 25 days, the whole family will move to the Northwest, and a few more days will be allowed to invite relatives and friends to dinner, and to enter the palace to thank you. There are many things going on. Rao Wenjiao has already prepared the belly draft, and I think it is really true. Extremely cumbersome.

Moreover, before he left, Lin Hai couldn't do much to help him. He had just been promoted, and since he left, he had a heavy responsibility. He probably had to stay in the palace every day, or check various matters related to economic and people's livelihood cases in Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu.

Wen Jiao had no choice but to cheer up and take care of them one by one.

Just at this time, Lin Ping, Lin An, Aunt Xu, and Madam Chen brought people to pay the rewards, and the kitchen sweepers and other stewards came to the main courtyard to listen to the order.

Wen Jiao sat upright, and ordered Yuxue to send a copy of the names she copied down two days ago to Nanny Xu, and ordered: "Go on the road on October 21, and let everyone here get ready to pack their things and go out. "

After Madam Xu went down, Wen Jiao ordered Mr. Lin An to be responsible for packing the luggage, Lin Ping was responsible for arranging the vehicles and horses for the trip, Lin Ming was responsible for arranging enough charcoal and candles, etc.

More than a dozen housekeepers went down to do something, and Wen Jiao also spoke with smoke in his throat. He took two sips of tea in a hurry, looked up at the clock, and it was almost time for lunch.

Wen Jiao got up after drinking two cups of tea and said, "Let's go, let's have lunch at Sister Feng's place at noon today."

When the eunuch came to announce the decree, it happened that Mrs. Wenjiaoge and the girls were in class.Wen Jiao and Daiyu went to pick up the order, but Mr. Lin and Mr. Li kept on teaching.

Daiyu came out of Wen Jiao's room, remembering that the gentlemen were still in class, and wanted to tell Lu Qing immediately, so she had no choice but to go back to her yard first, and start to take care of things like Wen Jiao.

In less than an hour, she made arrangements for the 21 people in the yard who would go and who would not.

Jinxiang, Lanxiang and Xueyan are both family members of the mansion.From a selfish point of view, Jinxiang Lanxiang has been a girl by Daiyu's side for four years, and she is about to retire in two or three years. How could she leave the girl at this time and stay?

From the point of view of the relationship between master and servant, their girls are really the best girls, and they are reluctant to follow if they don't go.So when Jinxiang Lanxiang heard the question, she followed without any hesitation.

Xueyan has also been serving Daiyu since she was four or five years old. Although she is a child of the Lin family, her parents have other children, so it doesn't matter if she is around or not.

Needless to say, Qingwen had stayed in the Lin Mansion for four or five years, and she had already wholeheartedly regarded the Lin Mansion as her home, and she would follow Daiyu wherever she went.

When Nanny Wang was getting old, Daiyu asked her to stay and watch the yard, and live there when she came back.

The other four third-class maids were all changed later, and the little girls Wen Jiao bought and treated from outside naturally all followed.

On the contrary, one of the rough envoys is over 50 years old, and the other has some illnesses.

One of the rough envoys is approaching age, she is 21 years old this year, and the other is dependent on her grandmother in her 60s.

The four of them stayed behind and watched the yard with Wang Momo.

When Daiyu finished picking people, she looked at the clock and went out to pick up Lu Qingyinglian in the garden.

She had just left the courtyard when she ran into Wen Jiao.Wen Jiao stopped her and said with a smile: "I'll go find your Aunt Feng for dinner, and you can take Yinglian Qing'er to eat at your Aunt Ge's later."

Daiyu smiled and put her arms around Wen Jiao's arm and said, "Thank you, mother."

The boredom in Wen Jiao's heart was emptied by this sound.She gently squeezed Daiyu's small face, and said with a smile, "Go quickly, she will come out of the garden in a while."

Daiyu let go of Wen Jiao and took the girls away in a hurry.The girls around her also learned a few tricks from Ge Niangzi, and they were all in good physical condition, and none of them fell behind.

Wen Jiao looked over and sighed, "It's nice to be young."

Yumei heard this sigh, and said with a smile: "Ma'am and Miss are standing together, people outside don't know, who wouldn't think they are two sisters?"

Wen Jiao smiled, thinking that in ancient times, a 26-year-old woman and an 11-year-old girl might still be mother and daughter.

If it was changed to modern times, wouldn't it be two sisters?

Feng's Yinglian's yard is just one yard behind Daiyu's yard.

The news that Lin Shangshu was transferred to the post of governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces and granted the title of Zhengyipin Taifu had already reached Feng's ears.

Feng Shi is 53 years old this year. His gray hair is neatly tied into a bun behind his head, and he wears two plain silver hairpins.

First of all, Feng felt that he was getting old, and he was living in someone else's house, as long as he was not rude, he didn't have to dress brightly.

The second reason is that she has been married to Zhen Shiyin for 30 years after all.Zhen Shiyin could cruelly abandon her and follow the Taoist priest, but she couldn't pretend that she didn't have this husband.

Dress plainly and treat him as dead, and honor him.

Feng's body is weak and afraid of the cold, it's not yet October, even in the house he still wears a fur-edged squirrel vest, and holds the heater in his hands early.

When Yinglian went to class, she would occasionally do a few needles or read a few books in the room.Sometimes I cook a few of Yinglian's favorite dishes in the small kitchen in the yard.

When the weather is fine, I sit on the porch and look at the sky, the clouds, and the flowers and trees in the yard. I feel very at ease.
