Cousin girl's salted fish life

Chapter 13 Preparation
After finishing this major event, the rest is the intensive relocation.

It turned out that the auspicious day for moving was reserved for Huilan, the owner. She needed to bring other family members except those staying on both sides with some luggage from Bo's house to Li's house on that day.Then complete a series of ceremonies, which means the move is complete.

Everything else has been moved in and put in place long before that day, avoiding the hassle of moving day.

On that day, Huilan was wearing a brand-new filial piety dress, holding a small bag of corn in one hand, a piece of ancient jade in the other, and a new pillow on her lap.

The corn went into the granary, the new pillows were sent to Huilan's bedroom, and the ancient jade was enshrined in front of the statue of Emperor Zhenwu.

After offering sacrifices to the ancestors and parents of heaven and earth, paying homage to Emperor Zhenwu, and completing a series of ceremonies, it is considered that the entire procedure of moving has been completed.

Originally, moving to a new house required warming the house, but the Li family was still in Rexiao, so this was waived.

Whelan has been exhausted for the past few days, so she could just be the hands-off shopkeeper without bothering to work hard.

Those housekeepers can't be as idle as she is. First of all, after the Qingming Festival, the handover of the uncle's land and gifts will be completed.

Then he gave Whelan all the girls in the room.Except for Qingguo, there are two second-class maids, four third-class maids, and four rough envoys.

Then, rewards were distributed to all the servants left behind, and they belonged to each of them as soon as possible according to the previous distribution.

Even Guanshi Zhou and Mama Liu left Huilan in tears after the handover was clear after Qingming, and went to take care of Zhuangzi.

After Qingming, Huilan found that Li's house gradually became quieter.Except for Steward Li and Ms. Wang and his wife, none of the rest of them was idle.Two porters, two cooks, a groom, an accountant, four nurses, six maids, and Whelan and her eleven maids!
Whelan felt corrupted deeply, and asked if she wanted to add a few more, but Steward Li tactfully but firmly denied it.

Although she didn't quite understand, Whelan still didn't insist.

In the evening, Mother Wang waited on her for dinner, and accompanied her to digest food in the yard before explaining the reason to her.

"These girls almost include the daughters of all the remaining servants. Firstly, it's the best job to be assigned to the girl's room; secondly, when the girl enters the town government's mansion, she has to bring some people there; Three times, with these maids by my side, the girl will not be alienated from her servants." Mama Wang stopped her mouth in a still unsatisfied way.

However, Whelan understood what she hadn't said, people's hearts are fickle, and if any family has other thoughts in the future, having these girls by her side will also be a hindrance.

Of course, these maids also included Madam Wang's own daughter Liu Ya and Guanshi Zhou's daughter Mama Liu, Huilan couldn't help but be touched by the care these loyal servants had for her.

"I understand. I will take good care of them when I come to the Duke's Mansion in the future." Huilan promised to Mama Wang.

He also called Qingguo who was following behind, "While there is still a period of time, mother and Qingguo will teach those little girls together, learn some rules, and know how to have high eyebrows and low eyes. I definitely can't take all these people with me. But here It is my home, so I will definitely come back, and those who stay must study hard.”

Huilan took Qingguo and Liuya's hands, "Mama Wang is busy, so please take care of me, sister Qingguo. Don't be idle, Liuya, just learn and teach at the same time. I'm looking forward to seeing you become good teachers and teach yourself well." A bunch of good apprentices, when the time comes, peaches and plums will be everywhere."

Ms. Wang agreed with a smile, made fun of Qing Guo, and asked Liu Ya to learn from her teacher.Embarrassed, Qingguo agreed after a few words of humility.Liu Ya responded crisply, and made a gesture to ask Qing Guo to learn from her, causing Qing Guo to beat her.The two half-grown girls laughed and chattered a few words, and Whelan happily joined in.

The lively girls chatting and laughing under the moonlight added a lot of popularity to this quiet new house.

Next, Li Zhai was on the right track.Steward Li took the accountant and the nursing staff to arrange and complete various protective measures in the house and warehouse, such as waterproof, fireproof and anti-theft.

Ms. Wang took the rough envoy to plant flowers and grass, clean up and pump the air conditioner to teach the little girls.Hui Lan and Liu Ya were given a little treatment by Wang's mother, and they learned some etiquette and rules in the room after dinner, so they had the right to digest their food.

After Housekeeper Li completed the safety plan at home, he spent another ten days packing up all the valuable and light things and stacking twenty or so boxes outside the warehouse, and then took them to the town government's mansion.

Is this too much?Whelan said weakly, you don't need to bring so many things to live in someone else's house!

"The girl wants to live here, not to visit relatives. The master is not here, so it's okay to keep those clumsy things in this house, and other valuable things must go with the girl. From now on, the girl will exchange gifts in every season. The return gift must come from here." Li Butler explained to her, but he insisted.

is that so?Whelan didn't know much about it, she only remembered that Sister Lin didn't seem to bring much stuff or people into Jia's house twice!

It wasn't until Whelan questioned Qing Guo on the sidelines that she realized that Uncle Li was right.She was misled, Whelan covered her face.The first time Sister Lin went to visit relatives, so she didn't bring much. The second time, it was not clearly stated in the book and most of it was stolen, so she thought that she didn't need to bring much when she went to live in someone else's house.Of course, these are things for later.

"Besides, the lady's dowry is entrusted to my aunt, except for Zhuangzi's shop." Steward Li added.

By the way, the mother's dowry is still there, so where can my aunt keep it, it can only be in the government of the town.With those things as a foundation, she should not be eye-catching when she brings some more!
Fortunately, the silver in Curry had been sent to the bank for storage, otherwise she would have a few more boxes, Whelan was very grateful.

Those little girls had to do needlework in addition to learning the rules, Whelan looked at the silver embroidery needles and the corners of her eyes twitched.

God bless, it's a good thing she didn't become a servant girl, otherwise she would have lost all her fingers in terms of her handiwork.

After a busy April, the family has changed into thin shirts.

Mama Wang has been bringing green fruits and willow buds to make clothes for her these days, and the little girls have also reluctantly graduated from the teacher. Apart from their own busy work, they are all doing some rough needlework (in the words of Mama Wang).

After Huilan came out of the Hundred Days of Filial Piety, she would have to move her nest, so she would no longer need to wear filial piety clothes, she would just wear plain clothes.

Mother Wang opened the storeroom and took a lot of cloth and silk.The soft silk is used for her inner underwear, shoes and socks, and the colorful silk is used as a purse for people to enjoy.For the coat and sachet accessories, people from a famous clothes shop outside were specially called to tailor the clothes, and the clothes were made by themselves.

As the weather got hotter, Whelan made clothes for the whole family and asked everyone to wear new clothes together after a hundred days.

The little girls were very happy, and the house was more lively.

On May [-]th, the former Xiangcheng uncle passed away for a hundred days.Huilan took her family members to perform the sacrificial ceremony early in the morning, bathed and changed clothes, which was regarded as a hot filial piety.
