Chapter 139 Mid-Autumn Festival ([-])

"Well, you can learn slowly now, it's better than being in a hurry when things come to an end."

Li Yu also thought it made sense, "Well, Lord, let's get up, it's getting late, and it's time for Tuantuan and Baobao to come over for breakfast."

Lin Yu looked at Li Yu getting up and getting dressed, and said regretfully, "Hey, I wanted to lie down with Yu'er for a while, but it seems that it won't work. These two boys should also be enlightened. After the Mid-Autumn Festival It's time to hire a gentleman to teach them, so as not to pester you every day."

"Is it too early? They are only four years old and one is five years old. Let's wait for another year or two." Although Li Yu knew that at this time, as long as the children of other people with conditions were around four years old, they would be sent to private schools or I invited my husband to come to the house to enlighten the children, but Li Yu believes that children should have a happy childhood, there is no need to be exhausted by studying early and lose their instincts, besides, Li Yu has also insisted on teaching them to read and learn every day for the past two years Arithmetic will also tell them some principles of life. Of course, they are all told with the help of short stories, and the effect is quite good.She has never seen how other people's children are, but most of them probably know better than Tuantuan and Baobao.

In fact, Lin Yu also knows that Li Yu has been teaching the two children all the time, and the two children are also very smart. Lin Yu is also very pleased about this, and he never thought about finding a husband for them right away, but he simply didn't want to see them It's all about pestering Li Yu every day, in other words, he's jealous...

Since Li Yu said so, Lin Yu just said, "Well, let's talk about it after the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Seeing that he didn't intend to make a final decision, Li Yu didn't say anything else.

After breakfast at the old lady's place, Li Yu taught Tuantuan and Baobao to write a few words and tell a few stories as usual. Lin Yu also sat with a book and read it leisurely, raising his head to look at it from time to time. Li Yu and the others would occasionally put down their books to test Tuan Tuan and bags, or teach them to write a few slightly more complicated characters. After all, Li Yu's ability in calligraphy is really limited.

In addition to Li Yu, only Hong Xiang and Xia Xue were left in the room for four people to wait on her. Maybe Li Yu also deliberately let her watch him and Lin Yu love each other, hoping that she could get rid of her wrong thoughts. In fact, Hong Xiang was in She is still very capable in other aspects. If she can figure it out, then I will not treat her harshly in the future and will find a good family for her. If not, then I will not keep her by my side to make myself troubled.

"Miss, the second family of Qin came to see Miss." Lian Er was the only one called Miss Li Yu in this family. Because Li Yu regarded Lian Er as her younger sister, her status in the Lin family was different from that of other maids. The old lady and Lin Yu acquiesced in calling her Li Yu.

"From the Second Qin's family?" Li Yu looked up at Lian'er upon hearing this, motioning for her to explain who belonged to the Second Qin's family.

"Miss, our back house is in charge of purchasing the property of the second Qin family. She said that she was ordered by the old lady to ask the lady to show her."

Li Yu thought it should be for the Mid-Autumn Festival, "You let her wait downstairs, I'll go down now."

"Yes."

"I'll go down and have a look, sir, look at the two of them, don't be lazy!"

"Sister, I won't be lazy."

"Mom, I won't be lazy either."

Listening to Li Yu's words, the two little buns repeatedly promised not to be lazy.

Li Yu patted the heads of the two of them, and said with a smile, "Well, be good, you can go out to play after practicing calligraphy."

"Go ahead, I'll watch them."

Li Yuchong nodded to Lin Yu, "Hongxiang, come down with me, Xia Xue, you are waiting here."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Yes, ma'am."

When Li Yu came downstairs with Hongxiang, he saw a well-dressed woman in her thirties standing in the hall talking to Lian Er. When she heard footsteps, she raised her head and looked at Li Yu, her face immediately filled with a fawning smile. "The maidservant greets Madam."

Li Yu sat on the couch, Lian'er came over and stood beside her, and the second Qin's family hurriedly stood opposite Li Yu to greet her.

"Get up, the old lady asked you to come?"

"Hehe, if you go back to Madam, it is the old lady who asked the servants to come and obey Madam's orders."

"Well, the day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since the old lady has entrusted this matter to me, then I will have to offend you. I don't know how the Mid-Autumn Festival was celebrated in the mansion in previous years. How about it? Bring me the accounts for the Mid-Autumn Festival purchases, and I'll see if there is anything that needs to be filled in."

The smiles on the faces of the second Qin's family stopped for a moment when they heard that Li Yu was going to check the accounts, but immediately they put on flattering smiles and said to Li Yu, "Hehe, madam should be able to check the accounts, but this account book is really a bit Many, I'm afraid it will hurt my spirits if Madam read it, and the servants on the left and right will remember it, so why not let the servants report to Madam, so as not to tire Madam. Do you think Madam is good?"

As soon as Li Yu heard her words, and looked at her stiff face just now, he knew that there might be some tricks in the account. The Qin Er family was responsible for the purchase of the back house. The problem that can be solved in half a day, although I have the support of the old lady and Lin Yu, is a newcomer after all, and I don't take care of the house. It's not easy to push her too hard now, so take it slowly in the future.

The moment Li Yu analyzed in his heart was like a year to the Qin Er's family. She never heard Li Yu's reply, and her palms were a little sweaty. I care too much, because the old lady has always been in charge of this house, and the old lady did not like her before. Even if she sued the old lady, the old lady might not believe it, and even if she did, she would not help her punish her. Fly old people in these houses.

But this one is different, not only the old lady's favor, but also the grandfather's favor, although I usually heard that this lady is very kind, but who knows?If she saw the problem in the account and reported it to the old lady, she was afraid that her dignity would be lost for the rest of her life. How could she not sweat?
But after listening to Li Yu's words, she felt relieved.

"Okay, then you can just say it."

"Hehe, yes, don't worry, ma'am, the slaves will remember everything." Seeing that the crisis had been resolved, Qin Er's family smiled like a chrysanthemum and began to tell Li Yu the things they had to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival.Soon Li Yu had a general understanding of how the Mid-Autumn Festival was spent in the mansion. It was nothing more than worshiping the moon, admiring the moon, admiring the lanterns, setting off fireworks and then getting together to chat.

After the Qin family finished speaking, they stood aside and waited for Li Yu's orders.

Li Yu thought for a while and said, "Well, I see, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will still be held in the pavilion in the Osmanthus Garden, surrounded by osmanthus, it seems that it will bloom in a day or two, when the time comes, the osmanthus It is also a beautiful thing to enjoy the moon in the incense. All kinds of lanterns, seasonal fruits should be complete as usual, as well as moon cakes and a few jars of good osmanthus stuffing. By the way, go and ask if there is anyone in the kitchen who can make Jinling osmanthus duck Yes, if you can do it, this dish will be added, if you can’t do it, come back to me.”

"Yes, madam. What else can madam order?"

Li Yu suddenly remembered the delicacy he used to eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival in his previous life-river crab!My mouth is watering just thinking about it!
"One more thing, ask people to buy three or four baskets of big and delicious river crabs. They must be fresh and live. This must not be forgotten. As for some other dishes, let the chef watch over them. Just remember not to cook them. It's too greasy."

"Hehe, Madam, don't worry, I will never forget the servants' instructions to them." Qin's family repeatedly promised that they would handle the errands well.

At this time, a magpie came to report that it was Lin Yuan who asked to see him.This magpie is the second-class maid in Li Yu's yard, and she is usually in charge of the transmission.

After hearing this, Li Yu said to her, "Go and invite Director Lin in."

"Yes, ma'am."

The second Qin's family were also very winking. After hearing Li Yu's news, Lin Yuan hurriedly saluted, "Ma'am, the servant girl will leave first."

Li Yu nodded, "Well, then you can go first, and report later if you have anything to do."

After Qin Er's family withdrew, Lin Yuan came in after the magpie.

"Greetings, little one, madam."

"Boss Lin, please sit down, Hong Xiang, pour a cup of tea for Boss Lin."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Ma'am, I dare not be young."

"Hehe, Manager Lin, you don't have to be polite, but you came to see me? My master is upstairs." He said to Lian Er, "Lian Er, go upstairs and tell Master Lin that Manager Lin is asking to see you."

"Yes, Miss." Lian Er was stopped by Lin Yuan just as she was about to go up, and Lin Yuan said to Li Yu respectfully, "Madam, don't bother Miss Lian Er, it's my master who ordered me to pay tribute to all the shops today. Send the Mid-Autumn Festival gift that came up to Madam." He said, holding up a large box that he had been holding in his hand as a delivery certificate.

Li Yu had already seen the big box in Lin Yuan's hand, and guessed it was the filial piety from below, so he said to Lin Yuan, "Lian'er, take it here."

Hearing this, Lian'er walked over to take the box from Lin Yuan, and retreated behind Li Yu.

Lin Yuan handed over the box and saluted Li Yu, "The little one will leave now."

"Well, Manager Lin, go get busy, Magpie, send Manager Lin off."

"Yes, ma'am. Mr. Lin, please."

Lin Yuan saluted again, followed the magpie and went out.

Lian Er said to Li Yu when she saw that the person had left, "Miss, this box is really heavy, it can't be full of gold and silver!"

"Hehe, it shouldn't be. Well, seeing the curiosity on your face, take it up, let's open it and have a look, so we'll know?"

"En." Lian Er nodded and followed Li Yu upstairs.

When Li Yu went upstairs, the two little buns were still writing seriously, while Lin Yu sat on the couch and was drinking tea.Seeing Li Yu come back, Lian Er was holding a box in her hand and asked with a smile, "Did Lin Yuan bring the things?"

"Well, I just sent it here, do you know?"

"These are gifts from the storekeepers of the shop below yesterday. I picked some that I wanted to give to you yesterday. Don't forget, I asked Lin Yuan to deliver them today."

"Oh, so, what's in it? Lian'er said it's quite heavy, probably gold and silver."

"Hehe, don't you know if you open it and have a look?"
