The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 313 New Home (Part [-])

Su Yunduo still clearly remembers that Ning's face turned slightly pale at that time, looking at Nanny Chen, then at Su Yunduo, hesitant to speak several times.

Su Yunduo guessed that Ning's heart must be vain in such a pomp, but it was not easy to show it in front of Nanny Chen. In the end, she glared at Su Zechen and said some grandiose words: "Your brothers and sisters are getting bigger and bigger. Yes, even though they are siblings, they still have to pay attention to the difference between men and women.

We country people have limited conditions, so we can't pay attention to so many rules. Our yard is relatively spacious, so that your siblings can each live in a room, and there are not a few people in the country who live in a room with men, women and children.

It's okay if our family doesn't have a big house in the capital, but if there is such a big house, naturally we can't be as unruly as the countryside. "

After listening to Ning's words, Nanny Chen seemed to have just realized that she had said something wrong, and lowered her head slightly to coax Su Zerui.

For Ning's words, Su Yunduo was still a little surprised. It seems that after Madam Kong's point, Ning still somewhat understood.

In order to appease Ning's mood, Su Yunduo pointed at Su Zechen's bulging face, and joked with a smile: "Mother, don't you know what Brother Chen is thinking, but I just heard that there is a small kitchen in the yard." , I just wanted to live closer to me so that he could go to my place to eat and drink. I don’t know if it’s true, but it’s on my face!"

Su Zechen was punctured by Su Yunduo, his little face turned red, but he refused to admit it: "Sister said it as if I was greedy, I just wanted to exchange medical skills with my sister from time to time, it's natural and convenient to live closer It's too late. Anyway, when I enter the capital, no matter whether I live in a small courtyard or a large courtyard, I will live with my sister!"

"If you're not greedy, there's probably no one in this world who can be called a greedy cat!" Su Zexuan teased, pointing at Su Zechen with a smile.

Su Zechen stomped his feet in anger and ran out.

Joking aside, Su Yunduo was not in such a relaxed mood at the time. When Su Zechen ran away, she sat in a daze for a while, wishing she could grow wings and fly to the capital to reject that mansion for Su Chengzhi.

This matter has always been on Su Yunduo's heart, until Su Chengzhi returned to Geshan Village and told everyone that he rejected the old lady Lu's big house, and only accepted the three-entry house on Huayang Street, Ning and Su Yunduo. All relieved.

Thinking about it now, although Su Chengzhi took old lady Lu's money and house, he was not that greedy.

It is really a good thing for the Su family not to have such a big house, so that their family can still live together as before, with their parents in front of them, and their sisters and brothers can play together from time to time.

With their siblings interrupting and distracting, Ning's mood will not be so uneasy. Su Yunduo's courtyard is really suitable for their family to live in. It is best that they can continue to live here after they recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors.

But this is just for Su Yunduo to think about it. After recognizing the ancestors and returning to the clan, it is really impossible for their family to live here. No matter what, they have to live with Mrs. Lu.

Of course, this is not something that needs to be considered at the moment, let's do it and see.

Su Zechen and Su Zexuan each chose a room in the East Wing, and the extra room in the East Wing naturally became the brothers' study.

The luggage was quickly sent to their respective rooms, and the maids and women brought hot water in one after another, so the family washed up and washed away the dust along the way.

The family gathered again in the specially furnished main room in the main room. The time had passed, and the big kitchen naturally prepared the family's dinner.

After a brief wash, Nanny Chen still came to wait in front of Ning Shi. Seeing that the whole family had asked Ning Shi in a low voice, someone brought dinner in.

This was the family's first meal after they arrived in the capital. The cooks in the big kitchen put their minds to it and brought in delicate dishes. Not only Su Chengzhi and Ning frowned, but even Su Yunduo frowned. .

Although the life at home is slowly getting better now, is it necessary to throw money like this if it is not a festival?
Su Yunduo just frowned and didn't say much, even when Ning opened her mouth to say something, she gently pulled the corner of her clothes to stop her from speaking, and at the same time shook her head at Su Chengzhi.

Let's stop today and make the rules tomorrow.

They just arrived in the capital today, so it's understandable that the cooks prepared more sumptuously.

Of course, in the face of this sumptuous dinner, Su Zechen was the happiest. Seeing his puffy face, Su Yunduo couldn't help putting aside the worries in his heart, and savored carefully. The workmanship is not bad!

After dinner, the whole family only ate half of the dishes on the table. Ning really wanted to ask someone to pack up the leftovers and save them for tomorrow, but remembered what Mrs. Kong once said, and insisted on eating them She swallowed the words, but her mouth was drawn into a line, obviously she was not in a happy mood.

Su Yunduo saw that Ning Shi didn't have a seizure, and didn't say anything about leaving the leftovers, so she felt slightly relieved, and asked the maids to come in to clean up the table, discussed with Ning Shi in a low voice, and decided to let Chen Mama first Mammy, Zisu and the others who came with them went down to rest. Tomorrow they would each have a day off, instead of serving them, they went to meet their relatives and friends.

When Nanny Chen and Zisu left, Su Yunduo asked the servant girl who stayed in the house to leave, because she had something to discuss with everyone.

There was only a family of six left in the house, and Ning finally couldn't help but said: "Our family is not a wealthy family, and there are more than ten dishes for this dinner, how can my husband's salary withstand such a waste of money?! "

Su Chengzhi was taken aback for a moment, and then nodded quickly: "It's true that you shouldn't throw money away like this. I'm going to talk to Butler Chen about it."

"Wait a minute, Dad." Su Yunduo called to stop Su Chengzhi from going out: "I'm afraid there may be other explanations for today's dinner, so when Dad talks to Steward Chen, please be tactful.

There is one more thing I want to tell my father. When I first entered the house, I counted the servants in the house. Together with the servants who followed us back from Geshan Village, there were at least forty servants in this house. My parents thought it was too many. or less? "

Su Chengzhi frowned, and looked at Su Yunduo in disbelief, Ning's expression became even more exaggerated, if Su Zerui was not sitting in his arms, Su Yunduo felt that she would jump up in shock after hearing what he said.

Even so, Ning uttered an exclamation, just in time with Su Chengzhi: "40 people?! Are there so many?!"

"41 people!" Su Zexuan, who was leading Su Zerui in Ning's arms to learn to speak, suddenly reported a number.

With Su Zexuan's number, Su Chengzhi and Ning Shi can believe it even if they don't believe it.

The couple looked at each other in blank dismay, their family was only a family of six, and the family's business relying on Su Yunduo had only just started to pick up, and it was not at the point where they could call on servants, how could they support 41 servants in this house? !

Su Chengzhi lived in the capital for a few months, even though he seldom went out, he still knew a little about the prices in the capital, which were much more expensive than Yanshan Mansion, let alone small places like Xiushui County and Linxi Town.

With his seven stones and five buckets of salary, it is very difficult to support his wife and children, let alone send his elder and second sons to school.

No, I have to talk to Butler Chen quickly about this matter. He doesn't care what kind of ostentation the Su Mansion is, at least his current ability is far from being so extravagant.
