Yang Zixuan did not notice the change in her eyes, and laughed: "It's good that you're fine, this kind of woman would either be tied up to see an official, or she would sell it herself."
He was talking about the way the nobles treated those who tried to cheat them.
"It's a death contract. Bind it and lock it up in the woodshed!" Mu Rousang turned her head and instructed the few wives standing at the side, then turned and spoke to Yang Zixuan: "It's just that I'm a little worried, her boss was Aunt Wang's nephew, it was also Wangfu-Tzu who lured his in to sign the death contract, who would have known that he would have such a temper."
Yang Zixuan laughed: This is much easier said than done, if the man needs to explain his reasons, if he cannot use it to sell, then I think that Wangfu-Tzu will not cause a ruckus because of this matter.
In his heart, he still had something he did not say, causing a ruckus was useless. That Wang Fu family had signed a death contract, not to mention that Shi Shu had always been with Mu Jinzhi, how could he ruin his son's future for a distant relative?
Mu Rousang thought for a while, then said: "In the past, because I thought about this villa, I didn't spend too much time and effort. How could these servants of mine not have one to worry about?"
Every year's New Year's harvest was good, but she would also receive a reward for it. Today, her life was even better than that of an average rich person, but who knew that this Fu Kang's wife was actually this ambitious.
"Don't be angry, but Xiao Sangsang, even if you are angry, you still look good!"
wished that he could slap himself twice. Originally, everyone was not that embarrassed, but he was good with his words now, so he didn't mention anything.
She then sneaked a peek at Mu Rousang, and sure enough, her face was pink, but she was just standing at the side rolling her eyes.
Afraid that she would be angered, she hurriedly said, "I'm helping everyone to remove the hawthorn tree. I heard they are going to take those trees out of the academy in the afternoon. Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble."
Without waiting for Mu Rousang's reply, he dragged her broken hoe and fled in panic.
"Pfft, young lady, why is Young Master Yang still so virtuous."
Chun Feng looked at his funny look and could not hold back his laughter. Mu Rousang looked at her and the other girls and said: "If you want to laugh, just say it. If not, how would I know if you want to laugh or not?"
"Haha …"
"Miss, Young Master Yang is actually quite a nice person."
"That's right, of the young masters that we know, only Young Master Yang has some background!"
Hearing this, Mu Rousang became even more gloomy, among the young masters that they knew, only Su Ruirui and Yang Zixuan remained as friends.
"Alright, you guys have laughed enough. Let's go open the warehouse!" Mu Rousang could not be bothered with the girls, she was the first to rush to the west wing's warehouse.
Chun Lian, who was behind her, whispered, "Alright, stop laughing. Don't you see that our lady is shy? It's not good to provoke her later."
A few of them felt that Chun Yan's words were reasonable, and quickly followed Mu Rousang to the warehouse.
Chun Yan did not need Mu Rousang's signal to open the door, and took the key to open the two storage rooms.
"No way!"
"How can this be?"
"Lady! How come there's so little of our sauce? This servant remembers that before the new year, Fu Kang gifted hundreds of cured chickens and rabbits to Zuo Mansion. Other than leaving some for Zuo Mansion, he also picked out a few gifts.
Chun Yun had always been in charge of Mu Rousang's relationships with others, so he clearly reported the numbers. A single cured chicken cost a hundred copper coins and a dried rabbit cost over two hundred gold coins.
This time, Mu Rousang was truly livid. She shouted angrily, "Chun Ran, bring your men to order this place for a good spring scene. Also, tell your wife to take care of that woman properly, hmph!"
Chun Yi checked from another storage room, and after hearing Chun Yan's words, she said: "Miss, according to this servant's point of view, we still have to send someone to inform the Young Master, and we also need to bring Manager Zhang back. Most of the lotus seeds in the other storage room are gone as well."
She glanced at the storage room. Usually, at this time of the year, the storage room was filled with dried vegetables, but only a few were left hanging on the wall. She became angrier as she gritted her teeth and said, "This kind of woman should be beaten up."
When everyone heard this, they saw that Chun Yan and Chun Yi also came out of the house. In the past, there was always a rule for eating these things, and they all knew how many they could eat every month.
Mu Rousang was annoyed, it wasn't because of the money, but because she felt that her heart was not satisfied. She had obviously treated her well, but her hands and feet were still dirty.
After he was done, he waved his hand and said, "Send someone to invite my brother back. Also, find the Manager Zhang.
From the looks of it, Fu Kang's wife would need to fish up over a hundred taels of silver a year. He did not know whether Zhang Fukang knew or not, but he was angry at the officials for not taking care of things like this, as even if they wanted to take things out, they would have to pass through the main entrance.
"Miss, please calm your anger!" Seeing her sulking face, Aunt Liu hurriedly said in a low voice.
Mu Rousang raised her head and looked at the approaching person: "Aunt?!"
Aunt Liu saw that she was seriously listening, so she said: "Miss, this servant heard Chun Yun and the others mentioned that Granddad is an extremely kind person, it's just that he is getting older and older, and also has to manage the orchard. I also heard that Miss has always been very respectful to him, so why not find a servant boy to help him?"
"I know you mean it, I was careless. I always thought that the Granddad was still healthy, but I didn't expect that after coming back I heard that my body was not as healthy as it was in the past."
She calmly thought about it and felt that the Aunt Liu's words were reasonable. To recruit a official, one must guard the door and also look at the orchard. It was hard to avoid things that couldn't be taken care of.
Then he said: "Thank you Aunty for the advice, I will arrange a small gatekeeper for later. Granddad does have some work to do, and I will get someone to learn how to take care of the fruit trees."
He then explained the matter to Chun Yi, waiting for the time to go up to the manor and bring the two people up.
She saw that it was almost noon, cook was currently locked up in the woodshed, and was currently still cold. She said: "Other than Spring Dye, all of you call the other women to come with me to the kitchen."
"Is Miss going to cook?" The spring scenery was dazzling.
Mu Rousang unhappily rolled his eyes at her, and laughed: "You gluttonous thing, seeing your previous hard work, I'll reward you with a chicken butt later!"
When Spring Scene heard the drool in front of her, she thought that she would be able to eat fresh chicken this time. Unexpectedly, Mu Rousang suddenly said that sentence, and her face immediately fell.
When the Aunt Liu at the side saw Mu Rousang say such vulgar words, she could only cough lightly and helplessly, before reminding him, "Miss, you are so elegant."
Mu Rousang flung the back of his head at her when she heard her, then called her back to the kitchen after calling out to her and the others. She muttered to herself as he walked: What kind of elegance is this? Then what do you want to say? Could it be chicken chrysanthemum? Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a wave of chills.
"Girl? But feeling cold? Would this servant go and get a piece of clothes for this young lady? " asked Spring Scene, who was supporting her.
Mu Rousang shook her head: No need, it will be very hot in the kitchen, other than the chickens, what else do you want to eat?
"Miss, I saw that there were quite a few fat and tender carp in the barrel in the corner of the kitchen!" Spring Breeze immediately answered.
Mu Rousang was overjoyed when she heard it, "Really? You still have live fish at home? " She had a very good taste of it. When she thought about how delicious the Red Braised Carp was, she wiped her mouth first.
She knew that Mu Rousang liked eating fish, so she thought that it would be much more convenient for her to eat fish. Last night, she casually mentioned it to Fu Kang's wife, but that woman said with a straight face that he did not have any fish in his house, and no one was willing to go into the cold weather, she only knew that liked eating fish, so she did not look at the time, and only opened his mouth when he wanted to eat.
"Enough, don't be angry, she won't let this go so easily. Although our Mu Family isn't some Ying Family clan, we still have our own rules. We have never left anything short of her, but we are still so disobedient. We just can't tolerate her!"
She clapped her hands and laughed, "Today at noon, we will be eating the Red Braised Carp. We will cut the chicken into pieces, and the cured meat will be steamed. We will also get some soup and some side dishes. It should be enough."
"Miss, why not ask Wives to help you catch the chicken and kill it?" Spring Breeze suggested. It wasn't that they were afraid of killing chickens, but that they didn't want to dirty their clothes.
Mu Rousang nodded her head in agreement. Not long later, there was smoke coming out from the kitchen as Yang Zixuan, who was busy at the back of the house holding his hoe, looked over at him and laughed.
"Young Master?"
"Xiao Tong, I wonder if Xiao Sangsang will still be circling around the stove!" Yang Zixuan really wanted to eat the food she made herself.
Xiao Tong laughed: "Young master, this servant saw that the water bottle on the floor was empty, so I took it to the kitchen to get some water." With that, he did not ask for Yang Zixuan's permission, and took the jug of scallops to the kitchen.
He went to the kitchen but did not say anything. He only talked about fetching water and how Mu Rousang was busy in the kitchen.
"Xiao Tong, what are you thinking? The water is already overflowing. Aren't you going to burn your hands? " Mu Rousang looked at him strangely.
"Ah, ah, hot, hot!" Xiao Tong looked at his red-hot fingers and felt like he was about to cry. Fortunately, the water had been boiling for a long time, so he didn't hurt his hands too much.
Mu Rousang smiled and said: "Chunyi, quickly go and get the burn ointment for Xiao Tong."
Chun Xin immediately put down the chores in her hands and opened the box to take out the ointment. When she came to the kitchen, she found Xiao Tong sitting outside on the porch, using cold water to spray her fingers.
"Why are you using cold water to shower? This water can freeze someone's life. Quickly, don't get wet with cold water. I've got the ointment." Chun Yi quickly handed over the ointment in his hand.
