Chapter 74 Retreat Without Fighting

Biyue entered the room, Suyun looked at her and said with a smile: "You can count as giving away something?"

Bi Yue said: "Miao Er traded with someone for half a day's rest today, and gave the rewards to her mother to keep, I've been tired of looking for them several times!"

Nanny Chang glanced at her, then looked at her again, and saw that she continued to register things with Suyun happily, and sighed, "Silly girl, don't think about it, since she changed her rest day with someone else, why do you find her?" How many times have no one told you?"

Bi Yue stopped, shook her head and said, "Miao Er won't lie to me."

Mother Chang caressed her forehead: "You only think about whether she will lie to you? You are causing trouble for a little girl. "

Biyue was puzzled, she tilted her head to look at Nanny Chang, and Nanny Chang sighed, "I know you love this girl who is smart and kind, but there are people who are right and wrong, and today it is obvious that someone tripped her up, logically speaking , I will report to you big girls if I change the rest day, but no one said, you go to find him, and no one said this for him. You are naive, if you meet someone with a hot temper, Miao Er's punishment is indispensable, if it comes out at that time, as long as a few people insist that no one has exchanged errands with Miao Er, they will have to be kicked out."

Bi Yue blinked her eyes and said, "It's just a few little girls, they are only so smart, so they can't be so vicious."

Suyun listened to it, nodded and said: "We are not meddlesome people, so we were not used as gunmen this time. When Mammy said that, she really meant it."

Biyue said angrily: "This girl is usually diligent and smart, and she doesn't cheat or play tricks. I see that I like to have more things with her, and they are all my own. There is nothing wrong with it."

Mother Chang smiled and said: "You only think of you as you. From the point of view of the little girl, you are the person in front of grandma. There will be benefits in the future. If you fill a position, this wonderful child will stand in front of everyone. You, let me just say this, so that you can be smarter in your actions in the future. Miaoer is a family-born child, and everyone else in our yard is from outsiders. She is not comparable to her at all, and she is not afraid of these stumbling blocks. Next, Ren Miao Er is a villain, much stronger than you."

Biyue was happy to hear that Mammy said Miao'er was better than him, and said casually: "Miao'er said last time that if she can't get out, it's good to stay and serve Grandma and Brother, and she will be a nurse with Brother in the future." Mama, that is Nanny Miao."

Mother Chang laughed out loud when she heard this, and said, "It's only one bean, but I want to be a mother!"

Su Yun nodded and smiled at the side: "This is a wonderful thing. The little girl wants to be a big girl, but the big girl has a lot more thoughts. This kid just wants to be a nanny, which is interesting."

Bi Yue said: "Miao'er said that mothers and mothers are very capable." Hearing this, several people became even more happy, and they really thought everything was like this when they saw it.

Li Wan received the New Year's gift from the Wu family early in the morning, looked at the list briefly, and then thought about the situation of the Wu family, discussed with Mother Xu about the return gift list and had someone prepare it for delivery.It's just that the produce from the village and the not-too-obtrusive medicinal materials and clothing from the Pearl World are not as rich as the ones received, and this approach suits the wishes of her brother and sister-in-law.

The most important thing to talk about today is another matter. After thinking for a long time, Li Wan finally came up with an idea, and said to Madam Xu: "Mommy, go back and discuss with Ji Liang, Duan Gao and Peng Qiao, what I mean is , Now our matter is too conspicuous, we can't help it if we want to withdraw, I'm afraid it will be a disaster if we want to keep it. God bless the new emperor when he ascends the throne, I just took advantage of this time to give him the business and even the machine.

It's just that these people are all leading the way inside, it's a pity to leave this business, besides the current situation in our house, and I'm in such a situation, it's better to take advantage of this time and go out and work with the nobles, it's better than staying in Xiaozhuangzi is strong.If they want to talk about master and servant, you tell them that it is much better for them to go out to earn their own future than to stay in the dowry village, whether it is to themselves or to me and Lang Geer. "

Nanny Xu sighed, nodded and said: "Grandma originally had this idea. I also thought about it for a long time. These people were all selected by the old lady back then. They are not bad. According to their thoughts, it is also true. To be willing to serve grandma and brother Lang is worthy of the thought of the old lady back then.

It's just that grandma's thinking is not bad now, loyalty is not on that piece of paper, this year this machine is so upside down, even if Duan Gao wants to get rid of it, it will be difficult.Although the outsiders don't know about it, Duan Gao is known in the Four Seas Trading Company. With such a big profit, he is afraid that he will be registered with him.This idea is also the best way. "

Li Wan nodded and said: "It's good that mama can understand what's going on here, and discuss it with them as soon as possible, so that I can pass on a message to Sister Lao. Throw it out early and feel at ease. As for their whereabouts, it depends on the behavior of the Four Seas Trading Company this year. , they are all in charge of a pool of things that can make money, and they all rely on their own craftsmanship, so they should have a good future."

After the discussion this time, Madam Xu returned to talk within three days after going back. The three of them were not stupid at all. This year was turbulent. After the new emperor ascended the throne, the Four Seas Trading Company also slowly surfaced, so naturally they didn't hold anything anymore. luck.In addition to Li Wan's words, after all, they all had some ambitions back then, so they all replied but let Li Wan make the decision.

Only Peng Qiao had a different opinion, and Nanny Xu said: "Peng Qiao's point is that he is different from Ji Liang and Duan Gao, and the fungus house didn't have much manpower, and it was all due to the blessing of the first wife. Well, what Peng Qiao likes is the work of grain and vegetables in the field, and his family is even more like this. Seeing that grandma has got a lot of rare seeds this year, she is more willing to change to another village to farm, and she doesn't want to do anything with those noble people.

And I think that fungus jade is not something that is easy to hand over, so it's better not to mention it.There are wool and tea in the front, and no one will pay attention to the matter of a few baskets of mushrooms. They just took advantage of this winter to suspend their business. They only said that the price of charcoal this year is too high, and the fungus and Dongzi goods are losing money.At the end of the year, when there were few people, all the fungus houses were flattened, leaving only a few drying rooms, and fungus wood was piled inside to make a show to coax people. "

After hearing this, Li Wan also felt that it was reasonable, so he agreed, and only asked them to wait for the woolen Zhuangzi to change hands, and then go to another Zhuangzi to manage affairs, and that Zhuangzi had some land.Mother Xu said again: "Duan Gao Jiliang knew early in the middle of the year that this year's matter would be difficult, he never thought that his wife would have such an idea, even though he was reluctant, he was not that coy person after all, he only said that he would recognize grandma as his master all his life. "

Li Wan nodded, knowing that the two of them were not people who acted in vain, and they were both transparent enough. The matter had come to this point, and it was not a blessing or a curse, so he could only choose a path that could be taken.

After making up her mind, Li Wan wrote a letter to Mr. Lao. When the new emperor came to the throne, she came back from the south with her husband, and she is still in Beijing now.Mammy Xu took the letter and went out, and someone said that Madam asked Grandma to come over.

Li Wan hurriedly packed up and went to see Mrs. Wang. At that time, Mrs. Wang was talking about housework with Sister Feng. When she saw Li Wan, she stopped talking and said with a smile, "I just talked to Miss Feng about the next year, and I thought of something to ask." You." Li Wan hurriedly agreed.

Mrs. Wang said: "I just counted the number of people in each yard, but you don't have enough people in your yard. It just so happens that this year's family is about to come in. If you have time, you can pick a few yourself."

Li Wan hurriedly said: "Lan'er and I are the only two people in the yard. There are enough people in the yard now. Last time, my wife said that I want to beat myself and start saving. There is no reason why we want more. According to me, there is no need Be sure to ask for three or four according to the rule, and it’s enough. Besides, Lan’er is still young, and there is nothing to order them if they ask for more people.”

Mrs. Wang smiled when she heard this, and said to Sister Feng: "You heard it, but she doesn't want it herself, it's not that I don't want to give it."

Sister Feng said with a smile: "It's really mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They are all on the road of frugality. In such a big mansion, how can we save these few taels of silver?"

Li Wan said with a smile: "It's not just for the sake of frugality. We don't want to do that. It's just that people gossip when there are too many people and few things. On the contrary, something happens, and it's more troublesome."

Mrs. Wang thought of something, nodded and said, "That's the reason." Then she asked Sister Feng, "I haven't found a suitable nanny for Brother Lan yet?"

Sister Feng smiled and said, "My wife wants someone to be clean and secure, and the house should be simple and safe. It's so easy to find here."

Li Wan said quickly: "Lan'er is now being watched by Madam Yan, and I look better than the nurse mothers before. There are many things about old age, and sometimes I can teach him a few words."

Mrs. Wang nodded and said: "Since that's the case, there's no need to look for it anymore, let this nanny receive the nursing mother's monthly prescription." Then she remembered and said, "Who is Lan'er serving in front of me now?"

Li Wan said that they were the two second-class girls in front of him. Mrs. Wang thought about it and said: "Go back and have a look. If you serve well, you can raise them as big girls."

Li Wan hesitated, "Two?"

Mrs. Wang glanced at her and said with a smile: "How, too many?"

Li Wan didn't know how to answer for a while, but Sister Feng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is not willing to part with the extra money?"

Li Wan had no choice but to express his thoughts: "There are only two big girls in front of his aunts, so he is only a man of ideas."

Mrs. Wang said: "Lan'er is a direct grandson, two are not too many, so let's make it so." Li Wan hurriedly agreed, chatted a few more about housework, and left.Yan Momo and Primrose Qingyu got the letter of approval, and they went to Mrs. Wang's door to kowtow, and the monthly payment was increased that month.

Li Wan still felt strange at night, but Mrs. Wang suddenly thought of this. Jia Lan listened to the gossip between Li Wan and Suyun Changmao and others, and suddenly interrupted: "I helped Second Uncle Bao resist the master's training a few times. .”

Everyone was talking, but when they heard this, they all stopped. Looking at him, Jia Lan continued: "The master is too strict with Uncle Bao, but the master is not so harsh with me. I follow Uncle Bao, and sometimes the master is very strict with Uncle Bao. We couldn't hold back our faces as we talked, so we laughed. But if we laughed, we should be sent away quickly."

Li Wan probably understood that this kid was caught in the middle and muddy, and he was not afraid of Jia Zheng anyway.Then he asked him: "How did you get to play with your second uncle Bao?"

Jia Lan said: "At first I saw that Third Uncle Huan was uncomfortable with Second Uncle Bao. When I was with Second Uncle Bao, Third Uncle Huan would not seek me out. Later, I felt that Second Uncle Bao was very It's funny, and it's not mean to people, and when Uncle Bao is joking with Aunt Lin and the others, I can talk to Aunt Two and Aunt Four about the new book I read, and Uncle Bao is willing to play with me a few times. He also praised me, 'Lan'er is still young, but she doesn't have the smell of those men's brows!'”

Everyone laughed after hearing this "boast".Jia Lan read a lot of miscellaneous books on weekdays, and after taking the Qiling pill, it is not a skill to have a photographic memory. It is logical and logical, which naturally suits Baoyu's appetite.

Yan Momo said: "It's just that I wasn't careful. A few days ago, the little girl in Master Bao's yard even brought over a spinning top made by a Westerner. It's a very delicate thing. It seems that we played together."

Jia Lan said with a smile: "Second Uncle Bao got it from his uncle's house. Uncle Bao has the advantage of giving things away, and he doesn't care about how much money it's worth. I think it's good, a piece of grass can be a treasure." Bao, when you feel boring, you don’t pay attention to the value of thousands of dollars, and you have the demeanor of a celebrity.”

Li Wan couldn't help laughing, and said: "You have grown up, and judge the elders!"

Jia Lan said: "There is no disrespect, and it is not disrespectful to the elders. And Uncle Bao is also impatient to be an elder."

Mother Chang said: "Although Second Master Bao doesn't like common affairs, he is not a common man. He has a heart of innocence. It's not bad for my brother to be with him."

Yan Momo also nodded and said: "Second Master Bao was born on the top of the old lady's heart and raised like a phoenix egg, so he has little jealousy and doesn't know the sufferings of the world. Compared with this, we are Brother is more mature."

Jia Lan said with a smile: "I don't know what the master thinks, anyway, I won't talk about unhappy things with Uncle Bao. I always feel that a person like him shouldn't know these things."

Li Wan pointed at him and said, "Mommy complimented you on your maturity, you're out of breath!"

Jia Lan touched his head and smiled, and continued to read his book.
