Ming politicians

This Spring Festival, the Su Mansion was extremely lively because there were so many people.

Su Pingyang spent 6000 taels of silver to buy [-] shi of rice and [-] shi of wheat noodles. The warehouse in the house was full, because the purchase volume was large, and the price was relatively cheap. Rice was three cents and five cents. One stone, wheat flour is two cents and five cents a stone, this is what the young master meant, to save as much grain as possible.

On the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, 120 seven people came to the mansion, including 37 girls, including Wang Furong.

After careful selection, Su Pingyang chose four girls to follow Su Tiancheng, with Wang Furong as the main one.For Su Pingyang's arrangement, Su Tiancheng just rolled his eyes, you think I'm a god, why do I need so many girls around me, but Su Pingyang has already arranged it, so he can't object.

The remaining 90 people, including Wang Dazhi, Ma Huabiao and others, were divided into two groups. Wang Dazhi was in charge of the group and Ma Huabiao was Wang Dazhi's deputy and led the group.

Wang Dazhi was really good. After arriving at the Su residence, after two days of rest, he started training immediately.

The few people brought by Ma Huabiao were supposed to be in pretty good physique, and during the training, they all grinned a little, not to mention these half-grown men who had just arrived in the Su residence.But the situation was as Su Tiancheng predicted, none of these people complained, they couldn't take it anymore, and they all hid aside and cried secretly.

Su Tiancheng really couldn't stand it anymore, but he couldn't dampen Wang Dazhi's enthusiasm.

He found an opportunity, called Wang Dazhi to the kitchen, pointed to a large bowl of wheat noodles, and asked Wang Dazhi to eat it, but Wang Dazhi was straightforward, saying that he couldn't eat so much, Su Tiancheng said with a smile, training is Take your time, don't think about accomplishing it overnight, you Wang Dazhi can't eat so much food in one go, so when training, you must be patient, according to each person's physique, speed is not enough.

Wang Dazhi quickly understood.

Among them, there is a reason for Wang Dazhi's impatience. After knowing that his sister Wang Furong became the young master's personal maid, Wang Dazhi's attitude completely changed. Of course he understood what personal servant meant, that is to say, his Sister, she will be the young master's woman from now on. Although it is impossible to become the original wife, the name of concubine is certain, and the younger sister is the first woman to come to the young master's side, so her status must not be bad.

Based on this understanding, Wang Dazhi regarded the young master as a relative.

There is nothing to say about the life in the Su Mansion. There is always pork to eat, and chickens, ducks and fish every now and then. This kind of life was unimaginable before, and the nursing home can also get two taels of silver every month. For the reward, the young master is so willing, if the people who come to the mansion don't work hard, how can they get by, so during the training, he was cruel.

All the nursing homes gritted their teeth and insisted, and no one flinched. It was also because of this reason that they could eat well and feed their families. If they couldn't protect the young master well, they couldn't become qualified nursing homes. , Those who can’t be justified are definitely suffering children, and they know that life is not easy.

The matter of Wang Dazhi was a trivial matter, but it was Wang Furong who really gave Su Tiancheng a headache.

Life is better, clothes are better, Wang Furong's advantages are revealed, the color on the face disappears, the skin looks fairer, and the body gradually begins to develop, the most important thing is that the mind has changed.

When she was with the young master, Wang Furong discovered the advantages of the young master. She never said harsh words, respected girls very much, and truly treated them as equals. Familiar with the rules of the big family, how to serve them is even more unclear. Some things are not done very well, but the young master never loses his temper. He always speaks patiently with a smile. After all, he is a little girl. Inside, gradually, there are no scruples, talking and laughing, things are not done well, and they are making faces.

After all, Wang Furong is older, and sometimes she can't stand it, so she stands up and says a few words, and teaches her a proper lesson.

Of course, Wang Furong was in charge among the maidservants, so her status was naturally different, so she could directly enter the young master's bedroom.

Su Tiancheng has already moved to live in the east courtyard, which was directly arranged by Su Pingyang. Before leaving, the master also told him that the young master must move into the east courtyard.

Wang Furong was already at the age of first love, and within a short time by Su Tiancheng's side, she regarded herself as Su Tiancheng's person. She could have such a destination, which she never dreamed of. So, when doing things, The attitude is completely different. The young master originally ordered that you can serve tea and water, including washing your feet, but you have to do it yourself. Wang Furong disagreed and insisted on dressing the young master every morning. The young master has a good temper, and after persisting for about a day, he was defeated.

Su Tiancheng was just at the age of youth. Every morning, a beautiful girl came to dress him. He felt incomparable pain. After all, Wang Furong was only 15 years old, and he couldn't accept a woman of this age in his heart. , I am no more than that, and I have not yet turned eighteen.

It's a pity that the Ming Dynasty did not have such rules. Girls who married at the age of 15 to 16 can be found everywhere.

How could he not understand Wang Furong's intentions, if he wanted to, she would have come to warm the bed long ago.

In a blink of an eye, the twentieth of the first month has passed.

The Su Mansion has always been very lively. Most of the nursing home and the girl's parents have visited the Su Mansion. Su Pingyang made proper arrangements and warmly received them. Not only did they eat well, but they also took away some food. These people saw Seeing the climate of Su Mansion, and seeing the lively children, I am really happy from the bottom of my heart.

Wang Dazhi's mother even lived in the mansion for a few days.

Knowing that her daughter has become the young master's personal maid, the woman clasped her hands together, saying that this is the blessing of the master, and that she has found the best home for her son and daughter.

On the 29th day of the first lunar month, Su Jun came back.

Behind Su Jun was a mighty convoy, and the ones that pulled back were all sweet potato seeds.

The big households in Pingyang Fucheng didn't know what sweet potatoes were at all, and they were all surprised. What's the matter? Can this thing be eaten?

The tenants of the Su family had already dug a cellar according to Su Tiancheng's arrangement to store sweet potato seeds, including the sweet potatoes harvested in the future. The tenants didn't understand why they did this, but they completed what the young master arranged without compromise. .

Sweet potato seeds don't need to be brought to Fucheng, they are all unloaded in the suburbs and stored in the cellar.

During this process, Su Tiancheng personally directed, and said a lot of precautions, the most important thing is that the cellar cannot be completely sealed, the cellar must be opened at all times, and every seven days, it is necessary to go down to have a look, and turn it over properly. During the festival, they all started chopping straw and straw, which was also arranged by the young master.

After returning to the mansion, Su Tiancheng said that Su Jun had worked hard, so he hurried to reunite with Yuhuan, because during the Chinese New Year, they were all running around outside.

Soon after Su Jun left, he asked to see him soon.

After entering, Su Jun immediately knelt down with tears in his eyes.

"The young master's great kindness and virtue, I will never forget it in my life. If there is anything in the future, the young master can arrange it."

"Su Jun, get up quickly, what's wrong with you."

Su Jun knelt on the ground, unwilling to get up, tears finally flowed out, and soon, Yuhuan came over and knelt down with Su Jun.

Seeing Yuhuan approaching, Su Tiancheng understood the reason.

"Su Jun, Yuhuan, get up quickly. I've said it a long time ago. What I say must be done. Don't think too much about things that have passed. Do things well. Su Jun will assist you in the future." Uncle, manage the mansion well."

After Su Jun calmed down, he specifically reported this experience to Su Tiancheng. He actually didn't do much. After handing over the wooden box to the people in Fuzhou, everything was specially organized by someone. The time was very fast. In less than half a month, I set off with the convoy. I was talking about the freight, but the person in charge of the transportation said that someone had already paid the freight. That is to say, Su Jun went out this time. Money spent on sweet potato seeds.

After finishing speaking, Su Jun took out the remaining 15 taels of gold. He went out this time and brought 25 taels of gold. Unexpectedly, Fuzhou sweet potato seeds were surprisingly cheap. He bought 550 taels of gold and spent [-] taels of gold. , As for living expenses on the road, he used his own money.

"Su Jun, you get five taels of gold, which is considered a reward for you, including the living expenses along the way, which cannot be paid by yourself."

"Young master, I thank you for your reward, but this is what I should do. I used to do a lot of things, and I didn't do well. Forgive me, I am already very grateful. This reward, I can't do it." need."

"Hehe, it's not bad if you have such an understanding. Since it's a reward for you, you can take it and leave the rest of the gold to uncle, that's all."
