After a busy day, everyone in the Yan family was exhausted. After seeing off the people, everyone gathered in Mrs. Yan¡¯s yard.
Today, the old lady is also tired. The Yan family doesn¡¯t have enough hands. The old lady keeps watching in the kitchen, for fear that the food will go wrong and others will see the Yan family¡¯s jokes.
Seeing that the old lady looked tired, Daohua walked up behind her and said with a smile, "Grandma, I'll give you a squeeze." After saying that, she put her hands on the old lady's shoulders and started to knead her little by little.
Mrs. Yan accepted it with a look of relief. Even though she was in good health, as she got older, she had to accept her old age. After working for a long time, her body was a little overwhelmed.
Mrs. Li looked at the old lady apologetically: "Mother is tired. After waiting for this period of time, I will start buying someone immediately."
Yan Zhigao put down the tea cup in his hand, nodded and said: "Our family has a few servants. It was not obvious when we were in the county government. When we arrived in Xingzhou, there were more people coming and going, so we were a little stretched. This time we are buying people. , Madam, you¡¯d better buy more.¡±
Hearing this, Daohua raised her eyes and glanced at the cheap daddy who only knew how to give orders.
Buy more people?
Does he know that raising children also requires money?
Just as Daohua was about to say something, she saw Mrs. Li shaking her head at her.
Immediately, Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Okay, I understand."
Yan Zhigao was satisfied and began to talk about the banquet: "Everyone looked good when they left. The banquet was a success."
After the words fell, Yan Zhiyuan immediately answered: "Thanks to my elder brother and sister-in-law for the coordination, otherwise, we would all have to wander around like headless flies."
Yan Zhigao waved his hand and said with a smile: "I know you all worked hard this time. When your sister-in-law buys the servants, you won't have to do everything yourself next time."
"In this way" Yan Zhigao pondered for a while, looked at Madam Li, and said: "Madam, we can't live without people around us. I think this time when I buy someone, the master must have at least two people by his side. ,what do you say?"
Hearing this, Daohua endured it again and again. When she couldn't bear it anymore, she asked her cheap father, "Father, can our family afford to support so many servants?"
She was afraid that if she didn¡¯t speak up, her mother would have to bite the bullet and continue. At that time, the lack of money would have to be filled with dowry.
There are 18 people in the three rooms of the Yan family, big and small, and two servants each, so there are 36 people.
?? 36 people, monthly payments, food and clothing, this is not a small expense!
Yan Zhigao was stunned as soon as these words came out.
Since Mrs. Li married him, he has hardly worried about money matters. In the past, if there was any need for money, Mrs. Li would prepare it immediately as long as he asked.
When it comes to buying people, he really never considered that he would not be able to support him.
Everyone else in the room looked at Daohua, and then looked at Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li. After all, they bought the person for their convenience, so they naturally thought it could be done.
Yan Zhigao looked at Mrs. Li as if asking.
Mrs. Li was silent for a while, and finally said: "Master, the situation at home is indeed not rich. Otherwise, the man who is walking outside will have two people beside him. As for the women in the backyard, we will not add anyone else."
Before Yan Zhigao could say anything, Mrs. Yan made her decision: "That's it, a man can't live without someone when he's out and about, so he should add someone else; but a woman is in the backyard, and she can't go out or take a second step, so where is the need?" With so many people.¡±
After the old lady spoke, Yan Zhigao said no more.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was a little stagnant, Daohua smiled and asked Mrs. Yan: "Grandma, I asked Man'er to prepare sweet soup. Do you want a bowl?"
Mrs. Yan nodded: "Here's a bowl! When eating with those official ladies, I'm afraid of losing etiquette, and sometimes I'm afraid of being laughed at because of my rude behavior. I haven't eaten enough at noon or evening, so give me a bowl quickly." After finishing, he looked at the others and said, "Would you like to have a bowl too?"
Yan Wenkai jumped out quickly and ran to the old lady: "Of course, grandma, you don't even know that my grandson hasn't had enough yet. My eldest sister's sweet soup came just in time, so I treat it as a midnight snack."
A few kids also expressed that they wanted to eat, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed again.
Soon, the sweet soup was served, and everyone talked while eating. It seemed that the previous embarrassment had never happened.
After finishing the sweet soup, Mrs. Yan said to everyone: "Okay, you are tired today, go back and rest quickly."
Each room dispersed separately.
During this period, Yan Yishuang and Yan Wenbin wanted toYan Zhigao took him to Shuangxin Courtyard, but who knew that as soon as the old lady ordered them to disperse, he and Mrs. Li left side by side, without even speaking to him.
The main courtyard.
Mrs. Li took a look at Yan Zhigao's face, and seeing that it looked pretty good, she said, "Master, don't be angry with Daohua. That girl is straightforward and doesn't know how to beat around the bush when she talks. She has nothing against you." mean."
Yan Zhigao patted Mrs. Li's hand: "I know, there is no need for you to come over and explain. I didn't think carefully about buying the person. I should have discussed it with you in private first."
Mrs. Li smiled: "I shouldn't let you worry about family matters in the first place. It's because I didn't do a good job. I haven't saved anything for the Yan family in these years."
Yan Zhigao shook his head and sighed: "This is not your problem, it is me. I failed to be the head of this family."
Mrs. Li hurriedly said: "Master is busy working for the benefit of the people, and I should be responsible for the family affairs. Don't worry, Master, I am at home. Money is a little tight now. When we gain a firm foothold in Xingzhou, the time will come." Get better.¡±
Yan Zhigao took Mrs. Li's hand and said apologetically: "Thank you for your hard work, Madam!"
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "I am the master's wife. It is my job to be the director of the house, so why not talk about hard work!"
Yan Zhigao nodded, then seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile: "Wen Xiu and Dao Hua performed really well today. Before, I was worried that Dao Hua would not be able to cope with the girls. I didn't expect this girl to be good at dealing with others. Not inferior to Wenxiu at all.¡±
The smile on Mrs. Li's face immediately grew: "The old lady taught me well."
Yan Zhigao nodded: "It's just that your personality is exposed. It's okay at home. But when you go out, it's not good if you don't hide things. You have to hurry up and find a good wife for these girls."
Mrs. Li said seriously: "I will inquire carefully."
?¡
Shuangxinyuan.
Aunt Lin looked very disappointed when she saw that Yan Zhigao did not come with Yan Yishuang and Yan Wenbin.
Today, the Yan family held a banquet, and everyone attended, except her, because she was a concubine and was not qualified to go out to meet guests.
There has never been a moment when Aunt Lin was so concerned about the identity of her concubine.
In the past, when she was in Linyi County, even if she was a concubine, there were official wives who were friendly with her; but now that she came to Xingzhou, for the first time, she clearly understood the difference between the principal wife and the concubine.
During the day, Yan Yishuang was wronged by various ladies and immediately came back to cry to her.
It was then that she truly realized the sorrow of being a concubine. Not only did she have no face, but the children she gave birth to were inferior to others.
