Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 436
Originally, the small courtyard near the government school was for Xu Chengyuan to live in in the future, so it is most appropriate to arrange them to live in it at this time.But the Du family has a lot of people, and there are servants, so they need two small courtyards to live in, so they are settled in this way first.After the new house is built, let the Xu family move in.

When he arrived at the small courtyard, Mrs. Chen looked at the small courtyard before and after, and liked it very much, and praised: "This small courtyard is very good." After speaking, he looked at Du Jinning and said, "Otherwise we will live here? Here is far away from the courtyard. The school is close, so it is convenient for you to go back and forth, and you don't have to run back and forth."

Du Jinning smiled without saying a word.

After seeing the new house tomorrow, Mrs. Chen will not feel that this place is any better.

After staying in the small courtyard for one night, the family went to the new house the next day.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Chen saw the new house, her mouth was wide open, and she couldn't recover for a long time.He kept asking Du Jinning, "Is this house really ours?"

Du Jinning answered her one hundred and eight times: "Yes."

"My God, I'm afraid the emperor's palace is nothing more than this." Chen said with emotion.

Du Fangling hurriedly stopped her: "Mother, don't talk nonsense."

"Oh, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense." Chen quickly covered her mouth.

Du Fangling didn't ask Mrs. Chen to say it, but she herself was impressed: "This house is really a good one. If the flowers and trees grow, I don't know what a beautiful scene it will be."

Du Fanghui has become obsessed with planting plants recently, and said to Du Jinning: "Why don't you leave the flowers and trees in this garden to me."

"The flowers and trees I brought this time will be planted today; next time I buy seedlings, you will lead the planting." Du Jinning himself has no time, and it is best to leave this matter to Du Fanghui.

Yao Shuqi has been following behind.At this time, seeing that everyone had walked all the places in the garden, he stepped forward to ask Du Jinning for instructions: "Young master, do you want the servants to come and visit your wife and miss?"

Du Jinning waved his hand: "No, I'll see you tomorrow when I move in."

Yao Shuqi and the carpenters of Liang's family are very capable. During the 20 days since Du Jinning returned, except for the Babu bed with extremely intricate carvings, other furniture has been prepared and placed, and the soft furnishings have also been purchased in place.

As long as you plant all the flowers and trees outside the yard, and then wash the green bricks in the yard, you can move in.

She turned her head and told Jiangbei: "You and Wang Fulai go back with the wives first." Then she said to Mrs. Chen, "If you are bored, you can ask Wang Fulai to take you to the Gongyuan to find your mother-in-law and the others to go shopping. I am alone today. If you want to deal with the matter here, I won't accompany you."

"You don't need to accompany me, you can be busy." Knowing that Du Jinning will enter the government school in a few days, she has to take care of all the things here when she is free.She hated that she couldn't help Du Jinning, so she had to take her daughter back.

After Du Jinning sent them to the car, he turned back and told Yao Shuqi: "Go and pick some strong laborers, and I will instruct them to plant the flowers and trees brought in yesterday."

These flowers and trees were the best to have been planted last night, but Du Jinning had no energy to take care of them after a bumpy day on the mule cart yesterday.Fortunately, the flowers and trees have been treated, the roots are covered with mud, and they have been bandaged properly, and it happens to be cloudy these two days, so it doesn't matter if it's delayed for one night.

Du Jinning was busy here. After half an hour, Xu Chengyuan came, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Jinning, what can I do for you?"

Du Jinning was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

"You're busy here, so naturally I can't stand by." Xu Chengyuan laughed.

Du Jinning understood, and asked him, "Has my mother gone to your place?"

Xu Chengyuan nodded: "Otherwise I wouldn't know you were here."

"There is nothing to help. Now that the family has bought a servant, you don't have to do anything yourself, you just need to order." Du Jinning smiled, and she pointed to a few strong men, "That's the craftsman of the Liang family. Master, Liang Xiankuan knew I was here today, so he specially sent here to help. So there are enough people."

Xu Chengyuan saw a few maids wiping the furniture and tidying up the house; in the yard, a few men and strong women were digging pits and planting flowers and trees under Du Jinning's command. Although it was a busy scene, it was orderly.After thinking about it, he found an empty house, changed into the short brown he brought, and joined the ranks of planting trees.

Seeing this, Du Jinning knew Xu Chengyuan's temperament, so he didn't stop him and let him go.

Of course, he is a frail scholar and an elder uncle, Yao Shuqi naturally dare not let him really dig a hole, just ask him to help a tree.

Du Jinning picked some flowers and trees brought from Lishui County and planted them in the yard according to the habit, and Yao Shuqi also planted some flowers and trees bought by Du Jinning according to Du Jinning's order.Du Jinning still left some vacancies, and planned to go to Qi Mansion, Guan Mansion, and Liang Mansion to cut some branches for cuttings, and plant seeds in some places.

She has planned where and what kind of flowers and trees to plant in the garden, and she can't plant them randomly.

Of course, she planned to hand over the rest of the work to Du Fanghui.

More people work faster, but within a day, the area of ​​the backyard is tidied up.There are some small details that can be dealt with slowly after moving in.

"Moving tomorrow," she announced.

"Master, do you want to check the date?" Yao Shuqi reminded.

Du Jinning hesitated for a moment: "Then let's have a look."

She herself doesn't have so many taboos, but Chen is more concerned about this aspect.Although they have moved many times, this is the first time that the Du family's third bedroom has bought a house, and Mrs. Chen thinks it is more important.

When Yao Shuqi heard this, he hurriedly asked someone to watch the date.When he came back, he said: "The day after tomorrow will be a good day."

There are many good days, he knows that Du Jinning will enter the government school in a few days, so naturally he has to choose the nearest one.After getting the house settled, Du Jinning felt at ease when he arrived at the school.

It's just a move, Du Jinning doesn't intend to inform everyone, and decides to keep everything simple.So on the morning of the third day, a group of them came in a mule cart according to the selected time, planning to move the luggage in and then set off firecrackers, just to remove the red cloth covering the plaque on the gate.

But he didn't think of it, and saw a group of people around the door from a distance.Taking a closer look, apart from Liang Xiankuan, Xu Chengyuan and others, Qi Muyuan was also on the list.Liang and Qi both brought two or three housekeepers and servants; the Xu family had a family of three, plus Yao Shuqi and others, so the wide road was almost occupied.

Wang Fulai stopped the car, and Du Jinning got out of the car, greeted them one by one, and asked them, "Why are you here?" But his gaze stopped on Qi Muyuan's face.

"Isn't this the joy of your housewarming? Of course we are here to congratulate you." Liang Xiankuan pointed at Du Jinning distantly with his fingers, "You are not kind, if we hadn't asked Yao Shuqi, we wouldn't know that you moved into the house today It's too embarrassing not to notify you."
