Chapter 41

"Let's go, let's go to Koizumi Village outside the city today."

Su Zijin took the housekeeper, Uncle Lai, and rode out of the city.

Since she told Xue Baozhu that day that she would be busy taking stock of her family's properties, she has not rested for a day. The lands bestowed by His Majesty on the top of the mountain, the Zhuangzi that her mother later bought, and the most prosperous tax street shop in the city, these few big things I have gone through all the accounts one by one, and now is the time to check them on the spot.

The housekeeper, Lai Quanfu, is the son of Nanny Lai. When he was young, he was the escort of the young lady when she went out. Later, the young lady became the general's wife, and he also became the housekeeper of the Su residence.

Now following the little lady, Lai Quanfu dare not slack off.He still has some sympathy with the old lady, but with the little lady, he has no foundation, and the lady doesn't like to joke on weekdays. Point out the faults of the people below, and continue to be kind, so that the slippery bosses below will be silent.

Thinking of a few days ago, when Miss smiled at Steward Su, who was in charge of the Su family's sacrificial field, and pointed out three errors and omissions in the account, and the abnormal planning of the layout of the sacrificial field, Lai Quanfu wiped the sweat on Steward Su's forehead. With a chill, he unconsciously became more respectful towards the young lady.

Horses are not allowed in the city, so Steward Lai Xinma took out a half-sized notebook from his pocket, and took advantage of this little time before leaving the city to report the situation of Xiaoquanzhuang to the young lady.

It's not that he doesn't want to report in advance, but that the young lady is too busy every day and the pace is too fast. The accounts of the manor, the location, and the crops to be visited the next day, and the second day rush to the site to investigate. Head performance score, but also look at the accounts of the manor the next day, and so on, so some of the small things have to be prepared in advance.Thinking of a few days ago when the young lady casually asked who was the head of the village in Dongzhuang, how many people were there, his bewildered appearance, and the indifferent look in the young lady's eyes when she saw that he couldn't answer, Lai Quanfu wanted to give himself a shot.From then on, every time he went out, taking advantage of the time before leaving the city, he would prepare materials in advance and report to the lady.

"Miss, the head of Koizumi Village is Hu Da, the guardian of the mansion a few years ago. When we first entered Kyoto a few years ago, the outside was not very safe. Madam once went out to offer incense in the city, and met a few short-sighted people. It was Hu Da who tried his best to stop the thieves. Later, Hu Da couldn't use his arms, and it was too difficult to continue to be a nursing home, so his wife asked him to come to Xiaoquanzhuang to be the head of the farm. Xiaoquanzhuang is rich, except for the three There is a hundred acres of fertile land, and there is a small spring mountain. There is a hot spring on the mountain. Through the hot spring, some fresh fruits and vegetables will be produced in winter. In addition to supplying the mansion, they will also be sent to restaurants in the city. The eight people under his command also Most of them are nursing homes for the sick and injured in Fuchu."

Su Zijin nodded, "No wonder."

Seeing his young lady's lack of sadness and joy, Butler Lai felt a little nervous for Hu Da for some reason.

"Miss, here we are."

Reining in the horse, Lai Quanfu pointed to a village in the distance, and turned to the young lady.

Su Zijin looked at the green and yellow wheat fields around him. It was mid-April, which was the last period of wheat harvesting. There were barefoot tenants everywhere in the fields, dredging the ridges, or watering the fields.

Su Zijin rode on a horse and walked straight to Zhuangzi along the dirt path leading to Zhuangzi. Some people in the field noticed that Su Zijin also had the housekeeper and the standard clothes of the guards in the mansion, and they bowed their heads vigilantly to show respect , Not long after, the biggest door in the village opened wide, and a tall and fat figure walked out, bowed and trotted over, and greeted boldly from a distance, "Butler Lai, why did you come to visit suddenly today? I have already ordered the chef Kill the chicken, and eat a farm meal when you come, ah. Hahaha."

Lai Quanfu took a look at the young lady's expression, and immediately dismounted, and rushed to Hu Da who was coming from a distance, and said, "Hu Da, I haven't seen the young lady yet!"

Su Zijin sat upright on the horse, looked at Zhuangtou Hu Da, patted his head, and said annoyedly, "Oh, look at my eyes, it really doesn't work, why didn't I recognize Miss? Back then, my arm It’s useless, she was placed in Xiaoquanzhuang by the madam, and the lady was still in the arms of the madam at that time, and she was beaten like this in the blink of an eye.”

If someone else heard Hu Da's boastful words, he might have to dismount and show respect to him, but Su Zijin was impatient with those people's sophistication, so he just pretended to be arrogant, and sat on the horse and said, "Okay, we're tired all the way. , I came here today to check out various farms for my mother, you quickly take out the account books, the time is urgent, and I have to visit Koizumi Mountain and the farmer's house in the afternoon."

Hu Da was stunned for a moment, since he arrived at Koizumi Village, no, to be precise, since he saved his wife, it has been a long time since no one took him face to face.His politeness to others has also changed from being sincere and apprehensive at the beginning to enjoying himself now.

The sudden appearance of a stunned young lady, who was still the main lady, he couldn't bear it for a while, and even his expression fell instantly.

"Hu Da! Didn't you hear what Miss said?"

Seeing that Hu Da's expression was wrong, Lai Quanfu hurriedly scolded him. .

Hu Da finally came to his senses, restrained his displeasure, and turned his head to lead the way, "Miss, please hurry up! This place is farther than other Zhuangzi in the capital. Miss has worked hard all the way, hurry up to Zhuangzi and rest first."

Hearing this, Su Zijin rode his horse and walked past Hu Da, jumped off the horse, and walked straight into the largest courtyard on the Zhuangzi.

Hu Da and Lai Quanfu hurriedly followed behind, and as soon as they entered the yard, they saw two people standing face to face, as if they were confronting each other, Hu Da's face changed, and he hurried forward, "Why don't you go and clean up the main room for Miss Master? If there is someone urging the cook, serve the chicken, duck and fish as soon as possible!"

After scolding his old lady who was slow to respond, Hu Da finally lowered his body, bent down in front of Su Zijin and said, "Miss, don't blame it, country women are not good at the stage. Suddenly saw Miss Xian Rong, stunned."

Su Zijin looked at the smiling and guilty Zhuangtou, and did not expose it, but ordered in a low voice, "Don't tidy up the house, just move out a clean table, bring over the ledger, and call the tenants over. Just work in the yard."

"How can this be done?" Hu Da shook his head, "This yard belongs to the master's house. We are just looking after the house for the master's house. When you arrive at Koizumi Village, you are returning to your own house. How can you not enter the house? Send it back to Kyoto, Madam won't blame me, but our old Hu is also very sorry."

Su Zijin didn't bother to respond to Zhuangtou's singing and fighting, and looked directly at the guard behind him if he meant something.

Some of the guards were brought back from Shu County by her, and their winks and practical actions were far superior to those of the Fuzhong Nursing Academy. In other words, they listened to Su Zijin's words and acted according to Su Zijin's winks.

They are also the most envied existence in Fuzhong Nursing Academy. After all, they get a lot of dividends from the business roads in Shu County every year.

Now these guards entered the house under the leadership of Hou Yi. Under Hu's staring eyes, they moved out the table, cleaned it up, and placed it under the big tree in the courtyard for shade.Then he took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the pocket he was carrying, and looked at Hu Da.

"Zhuangtou, where is the account book? If you can't move it, we will help you move it."

Being teased by Jia Wenxin and Guo Yixuan's connivance and humiliation.

Framed by these two people.With her reputation damaged, Su Jiaojiao's mother wanted to marry Su Jiaojiao casually, but was stopped by Su Zijin's words.Su Jiaojiao exploded, angrily reprimanded Su Zijin, and exploded.

Shame,

You just look down on me in your bones.

Su Zijin nodded in acknowledgment.

The two are honest with each other.
