Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 89 Interpretation of Flower Language

The four accompanying houses are all in the village, and they are idle now. It is better to make use of them and make the basic wine first. When the shop is taken back, the wine shop will not be far away.

There were several Zhuangzi in Tang Bingxuan's dowry. The largest Zhuangzi had one thousand acres of land, and the smallest one had two hundred acres of land.

Thinking of this, Tang Bingxuan added: "If we want to make fruit wine, we need to buy seasonal fruits. Let's first see which fruit trees are suitable for planting in the village. This can also reduce costs."

Jiang Shunian saw that Tang Bingxuan's analysis was clear and logical, and he understood that her idea of ​​opening a shop must have been brewing for a long time, and she had considered all aspects in detail.

"Although spring is already halfway through, it's not too late to transplant fruit trees. Then buy more good-quality fruit saplings and try to bear fruit next year." Jiang Shunian added to Tang Bingxuan's ideas.

Tang Bingxuan understood what Jiang Shunian meant and nodded in agreement: "My husband is absolutely right."

The three of them added their own ideas on the planning of the two shops. Tang Bingxuan saw that there were many things and complicated things, so she asked Jiang Shunian to write them down on paper to avoid missing anything.

In the end, most of the account books of Tang Bingxuan's dowry shop were read by Jiang Shunian and Zhixia. Although Tang Bingxuan accompanied them to read them, she was blatantly lazy.

After getting along with each other after marriage, Jiang Shunian knew that his wife was smart and lazy. If she didn't come to help, maybe she would take it more seriously, but Jiang Shunian couldn't help but feel sorry for his wife who would be tired.

In late March, the Yongning Marquis Mansion arranged an ancestor worship ceremony during the Qingming Festival. Because the tombs of the deceased elders in the family had been moved to their hometown in the south of the Yangtze River, Yongning Marquis could only lead the whole family to worship at the ancestral hall in the mansion.

Less than ten days after Tang Bingxuan married into Yongninghou's house, it was the first time she met Yongninghou's cousin concubine Zhao. She looked very similar to the eldest lady Jiang Tian. She had fair skin and a slender figure. She was only in her late thirties. Aunt Zhao looks even more delicate than her own daughter.

Aunt Zhao is wearing a green satin flower-breasted coat and a white sash skirt. Her simple appearance makes people think of a filial daughter who wants to look pretty and filial. However, today is a day for ancestor worship, so everyone wears more low-key clothing. , not too abrupt.

Aunt Zhao took the initiative to come forward to greet the ladies, and she showed some kindness to Tang Bingxuan. The words she said did not sound boring. Tang Bingxuan responded briefly and concisely, but it seemed that Aunt Zhao and the eldest lady Xiao were not in harmony with each other. The second wife, Mrs. Mei, gets along well with her on weekdays.

Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning, didn't pay much attention to Aunt Zhao, but she didn't look down on her either. Even when Aunt Zhao got close to her three daughters-in-law, she looked on with cold eyes.

Aunt Zhao, who has more than 20 years of experience, is more tactful and sophisticated than the eldest lady Jiang Tian, ​​and she also knows how to read people's eyes better.

Jiang Tian is fourteen years old this year. She is still a young and charming girl with a lot of petty thoughts. Compared with Aunt Zhao, the city is simply not good enough;

Aunt Zhao is in her late thirties, with a delicate and delicate figure. Although her appearance is not as good as that of Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning, she looks like a gentle and talkative flower at first glance. No wonder she is able to win over the simple and honest Marquis of Yongning, Jiang Feng.

When worshiping ancestors, Yongning Marquis specially recorded the Jiangtang family next to Jiang Shunian in the genealogy. From then on, Tang Bingxuan was regarded as the real housewife of Yongning Marquis Mansion.

A few days later, Jiang Shunian and others finished reading the account books, and Tang Bingxuan called the shopkeepers of several shops into the house to meet them. This was their first meeting after the shops changed owners. The shopkeepers of the six shops were all old people from the Duke of Rong's palace. They were relatively loyal to the Duke of Rong. There were no problems with the general account records, but there were some minor problems. If the water was clear, there would be no fish, so Tang Bingxuan would turn a blind eye. Close one eye.

Tang Bingxuan told them to continue running the shop and to come to Yongning Hou Mansion to find Zhixia at any time if there was anything important. Tang Bingxuan would handle it according to the priority.

Tang Bingxuan first praised the six shopkeepers for their hard work and hard work, and then encouraged them to keep up their efforts to run the shop better, and then sent a few people back.

After taking care of the dowry shop, Tang Bingxuan began to check the dowry farm again. There were three dowry shops. The largest one had a thousand acres of land, and all crops were grown in season;
Duke Rong, his wife, and Mrs. Liu all prepared a farm for Tang Bingxuan. Duke Rong felt that there were too many things to do in several small farms, and it would be cheaper to put together a big farm to manage, so he found Renren, the owner of a nearby village. Exchange land for land, otherwise it would be difficult for Tang Bingxuan to have such a large dowry for Zhuangzi.

The second largest village has 500 acres. It mainly grows apple trees and peach trees, as well as a small number of pear trees and plum trees. This is completely used to provide pillows when you feel sleepy and solve part of the raw materials for wine making; the smallest one Zhuangzi only has 200 acres, but it is a hot spring villa. This is definitely a surprise for Tang Bingxuan. It is located in the southern suburbs of Kyoto, not far from Yunshan Academy.

The hot spring resort was bought privately by the Tai Madam specifically for Tang Bingxuan. It was also the hot spring resort that her eldest granddaughter liked very much in Qingliang Mountain. Although it was not as big as the resort in Qingliang Mountain, the surrounding mountains were numerous and the scenery was unparalleled.

Tang Bingxuan asked three more Zhuangzi leaders to enter the house, with the same praise and encouragement. The others could only send suitable people to inspect Zhuangzi to know the future arrangements.

……

In early April, the weather was neither cold nor hot. Tang Bingxuan was bored at home and wanted to go out for a walk. "How about we go to my hot spring village for a few days?"

Jiang Shunian put down the carving wood in his hand, lowered his head and thought for a while, "I can stay with you for two days, but not for too long."

Before the two got married, Jiang Shunian carved a peach wood hairpin for Tang Bingxuan. At that time, his skills were not good and the finished product was a little rough. Tang Bingxuan took it out and took it home the day before yesterday. Jiang Shunian was very happy to see it, so he wanted to give it to her again. Tang Bingxuan makes an exquisite red sandalwood hairpin.

"Ms. sir, let's ask mother if she wants to go together. If you come back early, mother and I will stay in the village for a few more days."

Mrs. Qiao, the Marquis of Yongning, was really a good mother-in-law. She truly treated Tang Bingxuan as her daughter. Tang Bingxuan was extremely lucky to marry into the Marquis of Yongning's house as her daughter-in-law. If anything good happened, Tang Bingxuan would also think of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Qiao.

After getting married, Tang Bingxuan's life was similar to that in Rongguo Duke's Mansion. The most noteworthy thing is that she didn't have to get up early to ask her mother-in-law Qiao to set some rules, so that Tang Bingxuan could sleep in and be full of energy every day. Naps have been shortened.

"Okay. Since my mother came back to Kyoto, except for climbing Qingliang Mountain with my mother-in-law and others during the Double Ninth Festival last year, she hasn't had much fun to relax."

Ever since they separated from Yongning Hou, Qiao, the wife of Marquis Yongning, has basically no desire or desire except to be the director of the family. She doesn't go out much if she has nothing to do. She is bored at home all day long. Jiang Shunian tried to persuade her to go out many times but failed.
