Chapter 154: Moving

Mrs. Qiao knew this daughter she had raised by herself very well. Knowing that she was relieved now, she was afraid that she would not take it seriously again. She looked at her daughter with a disappointed expression: No need. I overheard your duplicity.

Too much. I don’t want to hear it anymore.

No, no. Qiao Lianfang promised repeatedly, didn’t I say what you asked me to say last time?

Then ask yourself, is what I said wrong?

No, no, Qiao Lianfang said hurriedly.

Okay. Mrs. Qiao stared at her daughter. Since you said you listen to me, I have a few things to tell you.

Mother, just tell me, I will definitely listen to you.

Okay. Mrs. Qiao looked stern. The first step is to take the one hundred taels of silver given by the Marquis to buy a good headband. Buy one that is more expensive and more beautiful than the one you wore before. Next time the Marquis comes.

At that time, I happily wore it and showed it to the Marquis. Then I told the Marquis how happy you were.

Qiao Lianfang showed some hesitation on her face.

Mrs. Qiao asked her in a solemn tone whether she could do it or not.

Qiao Lianfang shuddered and immediately said: It can be done

For this second incident, Mrs. Qiao said thoughtfully, after I leave, you should immediately go and apologize to Eleven Niang. Ask for another imperial doctor to treat you, and promise that you will be cured before Laba.

Although Qiao Lianfang's face was uncertain, she nodded obediently.

Mrs. Qiao looked relieved and said: Regarding the third matter, from now on, you will do whatever Aunt Qin does. You must not show any disrespect towards Eleven Niang. If there is any disrespect, don't even think about it.

I'm here to see you.

Qiao Lianfang didn't say anything for a while.

Mrs. Qiao stared at her with sharp eyes and did not relax for a moment.

Mother and daughter had a long confrontation, and Qiao Lianfang lowered her head, with crystal tears falling on her pink plain-faced gown.

Mrs. Qiao couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward and gently touched her daughter's head: "Endure your anger for a moment and cultivate your body for a hundred years. Now is not the time to care about false reputations. You must remember my words."

Qiao Lianfang started to cry.

Seeing Mrs. Qiao going to Qiao Lian's room, she was about to get up and go to see Sister Zhen when a little maid came in and said: Liu Yuanrui's family is here.

Eleven Niang sat down again and asked people to bring Liu Yuanrui's family in.

She wore a parrot-green silk gown, her black hair was neatly tied into a bun, she wore a big red velvet flower, red gold willow leaf earrings on her ears, and a pair of bright eyes, making her look very capable.

.

She squatted steadily and gave the blessing ceremony to Eleven Niang: Madam, I am from Liu Yuanrui's family, please give me my regards.

Eleven Niang asked someone to bring a small porridge to her to sit on.

She didn't even dare to say anything and stood respectfully in front of Eleven Niang.

Eleven Niang didn't force herself and asked her about Goldfish Lane with a smile.

She took out a small book made of hemp rope and straw paper from her arms and settled the accounts for Eleven Niang: You gave ten taels of silver first, and then fifty taels, for a total of sixty taels. Among them, each person

I made a cotton-padded jacket, which cost an average of 2 taels of silver for adults and one tael of silver for children. A total of 31 taels of silver was spent. There was still 29 taels of silver left. I saw that the weather was not good and I breathed a sigh of relief.

I bought cabbage and radishes for ten taels of silver. At that time, a fifty-jin bag of cabbage cost seven coins, and a fifty-jin bag of radishes cost nine coins. Jiang Bingzheng’s family moved in on October 16th, and they only had to pay for daily firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

It was five cents of silver. Wan Yi Zong moved in on October 20th. They had an adult boy in the family, so he added three cents of silver every day. Chang Jiuhe moved in on October 23rd, and he added two cents more.

The money is clear for every transaction, and even what to do during the Chinese New Year is planned. I have a random meal at noon and a family reunion dinner in the afternoon. I eat dumplings on the first, second, and third day of the lunar month. From the fourth day of the lunar month, I have a hot pot every day.

Use pork belly to cook cabbage, radish and some tofu. It only costs seven coins a day, which is enough to last until the beginning of spring.

He is a person who knows how to live a good life by calculating carefully.

Eleven Niang nodded slightly and pointed at Xiao Taozi: Sit down and talk.

Liu Yuanrui's family knew that he had passed the test, so he half-sat on the little teapot with a smile: Thank you madam for the reward.

Eleven Niang smiled and said: I didn’t expect you to be able to keep accounts.

Liu Yuanrui's family looked embarrassed: I just remembered it blindly. It's not as good as those accounting gentlemen.

Show me. Eleven Niang said with a smile.

Liu Yuanrui's face turned slightly red and he handed it over.

Amber took it and handed it to Eleven Niang. Eleven Niang opened it and saw that it was full of circles and dots. Just like Wanyizong, she was using her own creations to keep accounts.

This at least shows that she has a good memory.

Eleven Niang smiled and returned the account book to Liu Yuanrui's family, and asked about the situation of other families.

Liu Yuanrui's tone was full of consideration, and it was obvious that he was a person who spoke more cautiously.

The eleventh mother asked about Wan Daxian’s marriage: she didn’t know what kind of wife their family would choose.

When Liu Yuanrui's family heard this, they changed their eyes and said with a smile: Now that you have rewarded their boys for their errands, why not also reward them for their marriage? The Wan family's ancestral graves are about to smoke.

So smart

Eleven Niang smiled slightly: This kind of thing also requires fate. Two days ago, Wan Daxian's mother came to thank him, but she didn't ask him carefully.

Liu Yuanrui's family immediately laughed and said: If madam has this plan, why not give me a favor and I will help run errands and earn a pair of matchmaking shoes.

Eleven Niang smiled and said: I would like to give you a pair of matchmaking shoes, but I don’t know if you have the ability.

Liu Yuanrui's family members stood up immediately after hearing this: Madam waited for my good news and then bent down to ask Eleven Niang, I don't know which sister Madam thinks is suitable for Daxian. I will be able to talk then.

Eleven Niang thought about the attitude of the Wanyizong family, and was afraid that if she revealed the reason, she would not only not know the reason, but also make people laugh in vain, so she said vaguely: I just thought that Wan Daxian was a good person, so I took this idea. As for

Who it was, I had no idea at the moment, but several of them were already old.

Liu Yuanrui's family listened to a few compliments, saying that the sisters in his wife's room were all beautiful, and then got up and left.

Amber came up with an idea: Do you want me to go and inquire about it? The sisters in our house can still humiliate their family, but they are unwilling to do so. But they understand in their hearts that Eleven Niang wants to cultivate her own people, but Wanyizong

No matter whether it's Chang Jiuhe or Chang Jiuhe, after all, they are separated by one floor. The best way is to reward people like Dongqing around him as wives. Otherwise, Wan Daxian's job will be in vain. Go to the department

There is no middleman in the house, so if anything happens, there is no way to pass on the news.

Eleven Niang thought for a while and said: Well, you can see if there is any channel to inquire. Otherwise, we have to find a way to place another person in the outer courtyard. But it is really not easy for the Marquis and the Dowager to get through.

Madam, don't worry. Amber smiled and said, how could things come to that point?

She comforted Eleven Niang a few more words, and Mrs. Qiao came to say goodbye.

Madam is right, dragging it on like this is not going to work. Mrs. Qiao bowed slightly and asked Madam to help find another doctor. Maybe the symptoms will be corrected, but it may not necessarily get better.

Eleven Niang smiled slightly: It should have been like this a long time ago. Then she served tea to see off the guests and went to Sister Zhen's place.

Sister Zhen had already picked out the things and was registering with Wei Zi when she saw Eleven Niang and led Brother Zhun to greet her and salute her.

Eleven Niang asked her what she had chosen with a smile, and then she hugged Brother Zhun.

Brother Zhen did not refuse and allowed her to hold him.

Sister Zhen smiled sheepishly and said, "I have taken a fancy to a plum vase, a glass plate, a sweet white porcelain stemware, and an old kiln tea set."

Eleven Niang was very surprised. After a change of heart, she felt that it was reasonable.

If it were me, I'm afraid I would pick these innocuous things, and I definitely wouldn't really move the wife's beloved things into my own house.

She smiled and touched Sister Zhen's head: That's fine, whatever is missing, we will buy it when the time comes.

Sister Zhen smiled, and Eleven Niang carried Brother Chen to the Madam's place.

Seeing Brother Chen walking in with Shi Yiniang in his arms, Mrs. Tai was slightly surprised. Looking at what Sister Zhen had chosen, she couldn't help but hesitate and said: Isn't there anything you like in the library?

Sister Zhen smiled and said: I like these things very much. The plum vase is azure, and there is a red plum tree next to our Lijingxuan house. It will definitely look good when put in the vase. And the sweet white porcelain

The tall plate is filled with yellow oranges or red apples in winter. I don’t know how beautiful it is. The glazed plate is used to grow the flowers given in the greenhouse and will be distributed to everyone when the time comes. There are also tea sets from the old kiln. The second aunt

I'm back, I'm sure I'll like it

The child's wife smiled helplessly at Eleven Niang, thinking of others. Then she turned around and told Mama Du, since everything she said makes sense, go to my warehouse and get these things.

The account was registered in Sister Zhen's name.

Mother Du agreed with a smile.

Sister Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to thank Mrs. Tai for the reward.

The madam then asked how the eleventh mother's house was being tidied.

Do you want to go and see Eleven Niang said with a smile, and had people sweep the dust and replace the official green curtains with sapphire blue ones.

Madam Tai was very excited: "Okay. Then Eleven Niangzhen's son, Brother Zhun, Du's mother, Wei Zi, Yao Huang, and a lot of little maids and women went to Eleven Niang's place.

The house was repainted when we got married. It is snow-white, with black floor-to-ceiling furniture, sapphire blue curtains, and cyan floor tiles. It looks neat and elegant.

Too smart people kept nodding.

Eleven Niang pointed to the Nuan Pavilion in the south room: Sister Zhen was resting here for the time being. Then she pointed to the north room, where the serving maids and women were resting.

The madam suddenly walked out after hearing this.

Everyone didn't know what happened and hurriedly followed him out.

The lady looked around, stood in the corridor and said: I think this courtyard is very spacious, so the corridor will be changed into five rooms with two wing rooms, and a three-room pavilion will be built in front, and three wing rooms will be built in the east and west.

, I think it will be enough in the past few years.

Amber was secretly happy after hearing this.

Baoxia is usually used for women who are on night watch to sleep, or for mothers who are in charge to take shelter from wind and rain while they are waiting for something to happen. When the weather is too cold or too hot, you can't let them stand under the eaves to wait.

If it is for the mothers who are on night watch, it should be built in front of the main house. Now it is built in front of the main house on the second floor, and it is used for the mother in charge when she comes home.

She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
