Chapter 75, Branch
"Girl, we will live in this yard from now on? This is too big!"
Wang Man'er followed Daohua, watching the new home enthusiastically.
Daohuaxuan was built wide, with three main rooms in the north, one bright and two dark, with penthouses on the left and right sides, three wing rooms in the west, a few inverted seats in the south, and a flower shed corridor on the east, with a small plot next to it. Flowerbeds.
Daohua looked at the yard with great interest. Not surprisingly, she will live in this place for the next three years or even longer. Hearing Wang Man'er's words, she pondered: "Father is now knowing the state, wait for my mother to be busy. When it's over, there should be a group of people in the family."
Wang Man'er: "Will there be people around the girl then?"
Daohua shook her head: "I don't know, let's look at my mother's arrangements." She calculated the income and expenditure of the Yan family in private. The Yan family still can't support too many children. After that, even if Mrs. Li wants to add more people, she will do it. Keep close to those who often go out to socialize first.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's think about how to arrange the yard."
For a while after , the entire Yan family was busy.
Yan Zhigao was busy handing over with Xingzhou Zhizhou, busy getting to know the officials of Xingzhou; Mrs. Li was busy arranging family affairs, and she did not dare to take it lightly for fear of embarrassing Yan Zhigao.
Others are busy decorating the yard and tidying up things.
After half a month, Yan Zhigao took a look at the people and things of the Zhouya, and the rest of the Yan family gradually became familiar with life in Xingzhou.
During this period, Daohua also rearranged her yard. The main room was used as a place for hospitality and rest. The west wing room was arranged as a study and embroidery room, and the downside room was reserved for the maids.
The flower shed on the east side was also planted by her. According to her intention, she wanted to grow some vegetables and fruits, but under the reminder of Mrs. Li, she changed it to flowers and green plants.
She forgot that the ancient official lady also wanted to socialize. If other official daughters came to her and saw the vegetables in the yard, she might not say anything in person, but behind her back, she would definitely laugh at her.
Not only can she not grow in her yard, but also in the yard of the old lady.
For this, the old lady was still angry, but in order not to smear her son's face, the old lady still pressed down the heart that wanted to work.
"Grandma, don't be angry. When I buy Zhuangzi, we will plant it on Zhuangzi."
Daohua comforted the old lady in this way.
The old lady found it feasible, so she immediately called Mrs. Li, and when she asked her to see Zhuangzi, she must buy a small one for Daohua.
So, the matter of Daohua buying Zhuangzi is settled.
"Girl!"
Wang Man'er took a flower pot in one hand and hurriedly ran into the yard from outside.
Taohua took a flowerpot: "What's the matter, it's anxious for you?"
Wang Man'er said eagerly: "Girl, go to the main courtyard and have a look, the master is over."
Daohuanahan: "Isn't it normal for my father to go to the main courtyard? Why, is there something happening in Shuangxin courtyard?"
Wang Man'er nodded immediately: “I heard Sister Ping Xiao from the main courtyard say that the third girl also wants a separate courtyard. Aunt Lin asked the master for a request. Today, the master went to the main courtyard.
Hearing this, Daohua's expression was not too anxious: "Just talk about it. The mother has always taken care of the family affairs. Even if my father loves Shuangxinyuan, I have to ask her what she thinks."
The director of Mrs. Li has always been fair and just. In recent years, even the Sun family, who loves calculating and calculating, can't say a word.
There are indeed more yards in the backyard of Zhouya than in the county, but there are not too many. All the children in the Yan family can have a yard for one person.
Mrs. Li dared to let Daohua live in a yard alone, and that was also for a reason.
Daohua is the granddaughter of Yan's parents, her father is the pillar of the Yan family, and her mother is the wife-in-chief. She lives in a yard alone. Even if someone in the Yan family feels uncomfortable, she will not show it.
Ke Yan Yishuang wants to live in a yard alone, why?
Is her mother a concubine?
Main courtyard.
Yan Zhigao drank two cups of tea after entering the room.
It’s not how thirsty, but the tea in the lady’s room was given by the eldest daughter. Don’t look at ordinary jasmine tea, but it tastes better than the high-priced tea bought outside.
Nowadays, in the various courtyards of the Yan family, it is the old lady and his wife who can often eat the things given by the eldest daughter.
I don’t know if the eldest daughter deliberately, she doesn’t give a lot of things every time. Anyway, if he wants to eat, he has to come to the main courtyard or go to the old lady from time to time.
Madam Li waited for Yan Zhigao to drink tea, and asked Pingtong to bring up the jujube mud cake, and said with a smile: "Master, try it, the old lady wants to eat something sweet these days, and Daohua made this thing out. "
Yan Zhigao looked at the cakes on the plate. He didn't like sweets, but he could smell the jujube scent from the cakes. He couldn't help but put a piece into his mouth. After chewing for a while, he picked up another piece. Nodding while eating: "It tastes good."
Mrs. Li smiled: "Then the master will eat more. By the way, is there anything the master comes over?"
Yan Zhigao: “It’s okay. I just want to ask if there are still a few yards left in the backyard. If there is no one, give one to Yishuang. She is eight years old this year and she should have her own yard.”
The smile on Mrs. Li’s face remained unchanged: “I’m just about to discuss the empty yard with my master. When I first moved here, everyone was busy, so I divided the yard according to when I was in the county government.”
"Now that the master mentioned the empty yard, then I will also talk about my views."
Yan Zhigao nodded, and stretched out his hand to the jujube cake.
Mrs. Li glanced at the dwindling jujube cake: "The few small ones in the family are now big, and it's time to move out of their parents' yard. Wenxiu certainly need not say, as the eldest son and eldest grandson, he must A yard alone."
Yan Zhigao nodded, agreeing.
Ms. Li continued: "And Daohuan, as the eldest granddaughter of our Yan family, it is reasonable to give her a yard."
Yan Zhigao nodded again, but every big family has certain preferential treatment for the eldest son and eldest daughter. Although their Yan family is not a big family, he also has a heart to revitalize the family. This rule can be learned.
Seeing that he had no objections, Mrs. Li's expression relaxed a lot: "After that, it will be Wenjie, Wentao, Wenkai, Wenbin, as well as Yihuan, Yishuang, and Yile. Wenhui is still young. They live with the third brother, so the empty yard is seven points for them."
"There are four empty yards left. One has to be prepared to invite the master to be a school and teach the girls the boudoir etiquette. In this way, there are only three yards available for allocation." After speaking, Mrs. Li smiled and watched. Xiang Yan Zhigao: "Do you have any thoughts on this, Master?"
Yan Zhigao was silent.
Aunt Lin told him before that Daohua has a separate yard, and Yishuang should also have one. He thinks it’s okay, but now when Mrs. Li speaks, he thinks he wants to be simple.
If Yishuang is given a separate yard, what will the other children do? What's more, there is also Wen Kai, he is a direct son.
Yan Zhigao habitually reaches out for the jujube cake, but who knows, the plate is empty!
Yan Zhigao looked at Mrs. Li and said, "What do you think of Madam?"
Mrs. Li was not polite, and directly said her own thoughts: "According to my previous plan, Wenjie and Wenbin have always had a good relationship. They live in the same yard; Wentao and Wen Kai can play together, and they live in the same yard. "
"In the last yard, Yihuan, Yishuang, and Yile are together. Anyway, the three grew up together and went to school together. They all know their personalities and temperaments, and they must be able to get along well."
Yan Zhigao pondered for a while, unable to find any reason to refute, and finally nodded: "Just assign it like this."
