The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 586 Good News
Since the Zhen Guogong decided to come to the appointment period in five days, Su Yunduo had to put aside all the affairs of the Yang family for the time being.

Although there is almost zero chance of Su Yunduo being involved in this matter, she is still in the mansion, so let's talk about the trip to Yangjiaji after this matter, presumably Mrs. Lu will not stop it then.

In order for the workshop to open smoothly, she had to go to Yangjiaji a few days in advance to prepare for the opening.

After Tietou went to Yangjiaji to see Tongshan and did not return to Yanshan Mansion immediately, Su Yunduo simply took Tietou's job and asked him to go to Yangjiaji to help Tongshan.

Tietou stayed in the capital for a while because he intended to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of the "Shenzao Yujiefang", so naturally he went to Yangjiaji without saying a word.

Those who escorted the goods to Beijing had already escorted the goods that the old doctor Confucian told the Confucian government to purchase on the third day after the Dragon Boat Festival.

With Tie Tou coming to help, Su Yunduo was greatly relieved, and was able to calm down to discuss with Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Ning about the dowry maid and accompanying room and other matters.

Zisu, Ziyue, and Baikui had already been settled, but Mrs. Lu wanted to give Su Yunduo the green bamboo around her.

Although Cuizhu is not very old, she is the most important maid by Mrs. Lu's side. Su Yunduo is embarrassed to take the favor of the old lady, so she only asks Mrs. Lu for a third-class maid called Bai Mian who works in He Anju. Maid.

"Bai Mian? That naive fat girl?" Upon hearing Bai Mian's name, Old Madam Lu looked at Su Yunduo in astonishment.

Ning also frowned slightly, looking at Su Yunduo puzzled.

Su Yunduo smiled and nodded: "That's right, that fat girl!"

The old lady Lu couldn't help but shook her head: "You have some eyesight. Although the fat girl Bai Mian looks a bit silly, she does things with a strict eye and a good method. Since you like it, then take her with you."

Then he talked about other people who wanted to go to Zhen Guogong's mansion with Su Yunduo, and the first one mentioned was Nanny Ding beside Su Yunduo.

Nanny Ding is the nanny that Mrs. Lu begged from the palace from Concubine Zhen. She has never been married in her life, and there is no one in her hometown.

Now that she has a relationship with Nanny Ding as a master and servant, Su Yunduo naturally intends to take her there, and she will serve the elderly in the future.

Nanny Ding had no problem following Su Yunduo, but Bai Zhi, who was originally planned to be by her side as the steward's wife, was a bit embarrassing.

"Bai Zhi and her husband-in-law, what are your plans? Otherwise, it's better to keep her and be a daughter-in-law by your mother's side." Speaking of Bai Zhi, Mrs. Lu was also in a dilemma.

After all, after it was agreed earlier that Bai Zhi would get married, she would continue to be the daughter-in-law by Su Yunduo's side, in charge of eating and drinking in the courtyard of Su Yunduo and Lu Jinkang. The government is on errand.

It's just that Bai Zhi's wedding is scheduled for the end of August, which is less than a month earlier than Su Yunduo's wedding, so it's really not good for Bai Zhi to go to the mansion to work as a errand after being newly married for less than a month.

As a result, Su Yunduo not only lacked a daughter-in-law in charge, but also had to arrange another errand for Bai Zhi.

Su Yunduo shook her head. Ning already has a daughter-in-law in charge. Although multiple Bai Zhis are fine, she doesn't want to wrong Bai Zhi who has been by her side for more than a year, so she shook her head and said, "That's not necessary. I Thinking this way, I simply let Bai Zhi and Zhu Xing work in Piaoxianglou, and I can rest assured that they will look after some Piaofuxianglou for me. The lack of a daughter-in-law in charge around me can't be obtained from Zhuangzi or Yang's family in the western suburbs. Zhuangzi from the collection will pick a good one to come up."

Su Yunduo really thought about this matter carefully, it would be beneficial for both parties to let Bai Zhi go to Piaoxiang Tower without Zhu Xing's errand.

It was just a matter of re-selecting a suitable candidate for the steward's wife, which really gave Su Yunduo a headache for a while.

The old lady Lu nodded and then shook her head: "Baizhi's arrangement is up to you. It's just that the daughter-in-law who is in charge is so important, how can she be so casual?! I'll let Madam Wu come from the house to give birth to a child." I will find a few suitable households for you, and then you will be able to pick and choose, and I will let you pick the ones you like and take them with you."

Su Yunduo pondered for a moment and nodded, smiled and bowed to Madam Wu who was standing behind Mrs. Lu: "Then Madam Wu will have to thank you."

Mother Wu hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it and said several times: "I don't dare to be that."

This matter is settled like this for the time being.

When Su Yunduo returned to Xiulou, he had to talk about it with Bai Zhi.

Ever since she knew that Su Yunduo's wedding date was likely to be set on September [-]th, Bai Zhi knew that she might not have the chance to be a daughter-in-law by Su Yunduo's side, and felt very uneasy.

At this moment, after listening to Su Yunduo's arrangement for him, although he regretted losing the job of being the steward's wife by Su Yunduo's side, he was also grateful for Su Yunduo's careful arrangement for him, and knelt down in front of Su Yunduo with a plop, and solemnly kowtowed He shook his head three times and said: "Thank you, my maidservant, I will wait for my maidservant to go to the Piaofuxianglou. I will work hard and live up to my lady's entrustment."

"Get up, get up, your focus in the next few months is to teach Bai Mian how to do things in the kitchen." Su Yunduo asked Bai Zhixu, pointing at the somewhat restrained Bai Mian.

"Yes, girl, don't worry, this servant will definitely be a good student to teach." Seeing that Su Yunduo had no other orders, Bai Zhi immediately took Bai Mian down to train/teach, and Su Yunduo would definitely let her go home to prepare for marriage in two months at most. She has to hurry up.

As soon as Bai Zhi came down with Bai Mian, Zi Su came in with a letter.

The letter came from the Yang family collection and was written by Jiang Xiao himself. Although there were only a few dozen words in it, it brought great news to Su Yunduo.

All the wheat in Yangjiaji Zhuangzi had been harvested, dried and put into storage, and a few carts of new wheat were specially sent to Dongmingfang, and the letter came with the new wheat.

This year's wheat was fertilized years ago, and Jiang Xiao led people to carry out meticulous field management in the next year. A total of nearly [-] catties of wheat was harvested in the nearly [-] acres of wheat fields. A hundred catties.

Although this season's wheat is far from enough for Zhuangzi to be self-sufficient in food, it has given Jiang Xiao's family affairs team great confidence. Now the agricultural work team has diverted water into the field to start raising seedlings, and is rushing to start the next season of rice planting. Great news.

"Sister Duo, you are really refreshed on happy occasions, I can't even close your mouth from smiling!" Su Yunduo had just finished reading the good news sent to her by Yang Jiaji Zhuangzi when she heard Su Lin joking. the sound of.

Su Yunduo raised her head and glanced at Su Lin, knowing that the happy event she was talking about was the appointment of the Duke of the Town of Tomorrow, but she said in a serious manner: "It is indeed a great happy event, look at the good news that just came from the Yang Family Collection , This season's wheat harvested an average of hundreds of catties per mu! Don't you think it's a happy event!"

Su Lin has just started to learn from her mother how the housekeeper and director read the account books. It is only about the food and clothing expenses in the mansion, and has not touched the harvest of Zhuangzi. Even half-knowledge is out of the question.

At this moment, when Su Yunduo mentioned that one mu harvested more than a hundred catties of wheat, he thought it was nothing special, so he curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "It's just that there is an extra hundred catties of wheat, which needs to be ground into fine grains for us to eat. Flour only weighs sixty or seventy catties, and a catty of fine flour is only thirty renminbi, which is less than three taels of silver, so it's worth your happiness?!"

Well, this girl has improved a bit after learning how to be a housekeeper these days, but this rough temper still can't be changed, and she only listens to half of what she says!
"You don't think that my village only has one mu of land, but there are almost five hundred mu of wheat fields, and one mu of land is one hundred more. How much more do you think five hundred mu is?"

Su Lin silently counted in her heart for a while and came up with a total, then swallowed with difficulty: "Five...fifty thousand catties?!"

The number of [-] was finally big enough to surprise Su Lin, and then she said "Wow", "Wow, [-] catties, if you bring it all in, I'm afraid you won't be able to fit it in this room. Congratulations, Sister Duo, This is truly double happiness for you!"

Well, I still can't get around the joy of tomorrow's recruitment period.

Su Yunduo was powerless to complain, looked at Su Lin and laughed dryly, quickly invited Su Miao out, and finally successfully attracted Su Lin's attention.

Su Miao's family sent good news yesterday. Su Miao, who has not been married for a long time, has good news.

In this way, she had to bite the bullet and chatted with Su Lin for about half an hour. After sending Su Lin away, Su Yunduo felt alive again. Sure enough, she didn't have the talent for small talk.
