The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 15 Carrying Poems and Books
Regarding Liu Mei's methods, Yuechan is very clear. Now that Meng Zhiwen doesn't invite her a husband, even a little girl like Yuechan can't do anything about it. Meng Zhiwen is the head of the family. It all depends on Meng Zhiwen's face. Meng Zhiwen's joy and anger are the weathervane of the Meng family. Not only Yuechan is a daughter, but also an old lady. She is also Meng Zhiwen's own mother, but it also depends on her son. face.

After all, the old lady now relies on Meng Zhiwen for all her glory and wealth. Although the old lady values ​​things like grandchildren, they can all be sacrificed for the sake of her son.

Yuechan was very helpless, but she didn't dare to show it, so she could only say with a smile: "Father is right, daughter understands!"

While talking, Yuechan bowed her head: "It doesn't matter if you don't ask me about your husband's business, my daughter only thinks about what happened in her mother's house a few days ago, and she feels very uneasy. After her mother passed away, all that is left is the ancient books, piano and chess in that room. If these things are destroyed again, my daughter will be ashamed to see her mother again. My daughter wants to come and ask my father to find some people to help move the things in my mother's room to my room as soon as possible. Pray for my mother every day."

Looking at Yuechan's expression, Meng Zhiwen found that she had accepted the matter of not inviting her husband very willingly, without any complaints or complaints, so he valued Yuechan a little bit, and heard her say that she wanted to marry him. He hurriedly removed the items in Su's house, and felt very relieved, thinking that Yuechan was a pure and filial person.

Meng Zhiwen thought about it, Su's things would naturally be left to her children, since Yuechan wanted it, she could just give it to Yuechan.

He thought again, Liu Mei said that Yuechan had a bad temper and was easy to get angry, why didn't it look like that today, this child was very calm, and Meng Zhiwen thought again that night when he saw Yuechan kneeling I began to think about the matter of chanting scriptures in front of Su's spirit. How could a child who could calm down to write scriptures and read scriptures to his deceased mother in the middle of the night have a bad temper?

Maybe Liu Mei was wrong. Meng Zhiwen didn't think that Liu Mei said this on purpose, and made an excuse for Liu Mei in his heart.

However, Meng Zhiwen no longer wanted to ask Yuechan for a husband. He had already rejected this matter. If he asked Yuechan for a husband again, wouldn't he have slapped himself in the face? A daughter's family is not a son. Read Why are there so many books, Meng Zhiwen thought.

"This is your filial piety. Well, tomorrow I will ask the housekeeper to find someone to help you move things." Meng Zhiwen patted Yuechan's head: "It's getting late, go back to sleep!"

Yuechan obediently performed the simple ceremony, and exited the room very politely. As soon as she went out, she saw a full moon hanging in the sky. She couldn't help thinking, time flies so fast, and she came back to life unconsciously. It has been half a month.

Back in the room, Huamei followed Yuechan, took off the hairpin for Yuechan, went to Luoqun, fetched water to wash her face, then asked in a low voice: "Miss, please sir..."

Yuechan turned her head, her brows were furrowed tightly: "Sister Huamei, please don't talk about Mr. in the future, and don't say it in front of anyone."

Huamei nodded, knowing that this matter would definitely not work out, the master must not agree, so she was very sad for Yuechan, the rare young lady wanted to learn something, but the master did not invite her husband, the Meng family is not without money, a prostitute, It's not so bad that you can't afford to hire a gentleman, right?

Yuechan was in a bad mood, so she quickly lay down on the bed and pulled the thin quilt over her body, covered her head and fell asleep. Before going to sleep, she clenched her fists tightly and told herself that there is no unparalleled road, and the solution is always thought of by people. This way doesn't work, there is another way, it doesn't matter what the husband does, she can still study by herself, there are so many books in Su's house, it is enough for her to read, and besides, when she was a ghost, she followed many great scholars After that, she also learned a lot, and those books should not be difficult for her.

To cheer herself up, Yuechan told herself, don't be discouraged, life is made by people, good is also a day, bad is also a day, I must use my greatest effort to live every day well, no matter what, I can't live up to it It's a great time of youth.

After a night of nothing, Yuechan woke up the next day and greeted the old lady after freshening up. She took Thrush and Huang Ying to find the butler Ji of the Meng Mansion, and asked him to find someone to help clean up the things in Su's house. Moved to Tinglan Pavilion.

Butler Ji here should have been confessed by Meng Zhiwen when he woke up early. Anyway, upon hearing Yuechan's words, he readily agreed and would arrange manpower to do it as quickly as possible.

Yuechan nodded after hearing this, and began to make arrangements after returning to her room: "Sister Huangying, you bring some people to tidy up a few rooms on the west side, it will be used as a study in the future, and I will move it in later. put your books in."

Huang Ying responded, and went to tidy up with a few rough envoys who were in charge of cleaning.

Yuechan looked at Huamei again: "Sister Huamei, you are in charge of my usual monthly money and clothes, you can find some copper coins and bring them with you. After a while, those servants will bring things, you alone If you send money to each other, just say that it is their hard work, and I reward them."

Huamei was a little puzzled: "Miss, you are the serious master of this mansion, and this matter was told by the master, it is what they should do, there is no need for rewards at all, besides, there are so many people, you have to pay rewards , How much do you have to send!"

Seeing Huamei like this, Yuechan shook her head and smiled wryly: "Sister Yuechan, don't I know the reason you are talking about, but you also know the reason why the king of hell likes to see little ghosts, even though I am a serious person in this mansion. Master, but now Liu Mei is the master of the house. She hasn't been righted yet. Look, it will be very difficult for us to do something. If she is righted, there will be no place for us. I just It’s just a matter of sending money in advance and selling it, those servants may not know which one has some gratitude, and we may not be able to use it when we can use it, and besides..."

Yuechan smiled wryly again: "I reckon, if we don't use money to do things in the future, I think those servants will have to procrastinate and do things that we want to do!"

With those words, Huamei immediately changed her face: "How could it be? Miss, let's not get to that difficult situation!"

Yuechan sat down and took a sip of water: "Why not, I'm afraid it's worse than this!"

This... Thrush was a little frightened: "No, I must tell my mother that the young lady is the serious master of this mansion, and you can't be forced like this."

"That's all, that's all!" Yuechan waved her hand: "Don't bother Mother Zhou, it's not easy for her to go home and retire, and I don't want to involve her."

While talking, Yuechan thought for a while: "Sister Huamei, go and calculate how much money we have in total, and tell me after you calculate it, we have to plan for the future, we should save more money." !"

"En!" Huamei agreed, and went to find some scattered copper coins, packed them in a small bag, and stood in the courtyard with the ring, ready to pay the reward later.

Yuechan arranged all kinds of affairs, took a rest, and felt very worried about the boys who were carrying things, called a little girl and a strong woman to follow, and walked towards Su's house.

When she passed by, she saw Steward Ji leading a dozen servants opening the door of Su's house, Yuechan walked over, Steward Ji and others quickly saluted, Yuechan smiled and said a few words to Steward Ji Then, she asked Steward Ji to open the door, and she went straight to the inner room, found the guqin, handed it to the mother-in-law to hold, and took a jade chessboard and chess pieces carved from white and black jade in Su's room. Find it and give it to the little girl behind her, let her and the old woman send the things back first, and give them to Huang Ying to arrange them before coming back.

After sending the two of them away, Yuechan asked Steward Ji to find a large wooden box, and she stepped on a stool and stood in front of the bookshelf to organize the books.

Seeing the situation, Steward Ji was so frightened that he didn't kneel down.

"Little aunt, can you come down first? You stand on it, and we are in a state of panic. If you fall, the master will come back and take our skin!" Ji Butler wept. A face stood on the ground begging.

Yuechan turned her head and smiled at Butler Ji: "Butler Ji, don't worry, I'm only looking for a few important books, and I'll come down when I find them, so I won't embarrass you."

While talking, she tapped the back of the book with her fingertips, and finally found a thick manuscript on the second shelf of the bookshelf, and carefully pulled it out. After checking that the book was not damaged, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. .

The book Yuechan took out was a history book, which she specially found for Meng Haoyu to read. Through the last conversation, Yuechan found that Meng Haoyu was not stupid, but he was too simple, so she wanted to find a history book Show him, she knew that the Su family had a lot of books here, so she tried to find them, and in the end, she really found them.

This book was written by a great sage in ancient times. It described the historical facts very well and in detail. Yuechan remembered that when she was a ghost, she heard someone say that reading history can make people enlightened, so she made up her mind to do it. Let Haoyu read this book more, not let him just study those books of poetry and other books, if he becomes a nerd after learning, who will she cry to, you know, she Meng Yuechan is such a real brother.

Handing the history book to Steward Ji, Yuechan found a few miscellaneous books such as chess scores and piano scores, as well as some handwritten copies of folk tunes, took them down and wiped them clean, and let Steward Ji hold , she got down from the stool by herself, carefully picked up the books from Butler Ji, and stood aside with the books in her arms, watching, while the servants carefully took down each book and wiped it, and packed them all into boxes. Wipe the nanmu bookshelf clean and move it to her study in Tinglan Pavilion.

Yuechan was busy here, when she heard the voices of Yue'e and Yueting from outside the door, especially Yueting, this girl's voice was very loud: "Sister, where have you been, we are looking for you to play..."
