Concubine Raiders

Eleven Niang washes out, Xu Lingyi has already gone to bed, two people lean on the bedside to talk.

"The fifth younger sister moved to live in the garden, and the second sister-in-law went to another courtyard in the west mountain. I called the servants back. Otherwise, the family will be in a mess... " Xu Lingyi told Shiniang what happened at home these days. "My mother is old, and my second sister-in-law is not around. You should help to take care of her old people more!"

Eleven Niang quickly answer here. Thinking that Mrs. Tai and Xu Lingyi have always been courteous to the second lady, Xu Lingyi said, "do you want to send someone to say hello? To see if the second sister-in-law has anything she wants, she can take some of them. "

Seeing that she was so sensible, Xu Lingyi nodded with a smile and saw her eyes soften: "it's good that you can think like this. She is alone. We brothers and sisters should take more care of her. It's OK. You can walk around with her. " Although Chen Niang was born in the Ministry of labor, he was called a master of water management. I once heard that he was planting some fruit trees in Daxing. I asked him. I wanted to invite him to visit your farm. But he heard that I have 500 mu of sloping land. He was very interested. I want to rent it for one hundred Liang silver a year. I think the price is OK. What do you think? "

Eleven Niang didn't expect Xu Lingyi to move so fast. She quickly turned her mind: "the Marquis is is well-informed. Since the price can be said, there will be no mistake. It's just that I rented the land to this Mr. Chen, so there's nothing to do with the housekeeper. Idling around every day, I'm afraid something will happen. I heard from Jia Guanshi that it is best to plant fruit trees on that slope. I don't know whether he and Marquis have talked about how to rent in detail? I think fruit trees are not profitable in one year or two years. One rent is for many years. Can you ask me how many years Mr. Chen wants to rent? Is the rent so fixed? Or with the rise and fall of land prices around it

Her voice was as clear as a silver bell. She said a lot of things, but she was very clear. Every sentence was on the point.

Hearing this, Xu Lingyi's eyes brightened. She looked at her with a certain degree of admiration. She straightened up and said, "Chen Ping wants to rent for ten years. He will die at one hundred Liang a year. He will pay the rent for three years in advance. If you want to renew the lease after ten years, you should take him first. "

Eleven Niang heard something more.

Five taels of silver for one mu and two thousand taels for five hundred acres of land. But Chen Ping paid three hundred taels in one breath

She pondered: "there should not be much sloping land around Yanjing like me with a breath of 500 mu?"

Xu Lingyi couldn't help laughing: "not bad. Otherwise, he won't pay the rent for three years

Eleven Niang's heart is more certain.

Although there was some taste of drinking doves to quench her thirst, she could do something else with the three hundred taels of silver. Including the development of 300 mu of sandy land. Fortunately, Xu Lingyi has a wide range of people, so she immediately finds a way out.

"The Lord will send someone to talk to Mr. Chen!" Eleven Niang said with a smile, "it's easy to say about renting land, but I have to use my people to help him manage the garden!"

Xu Lingyi said with a smile, "if you want to learn art by stealing your teacher, ten years is too long, right? It's better to take people out and do something else. "

"It's not like stealing a teacher's skill." Eleven Niang said with a smile, "it's just a rare opportunity for them to learn a craft, and then they can have a bite to eat. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. "

Xu Lingyi's eyes flashed with appreciation.

"Let manager Bai go tomorrow." He said with a smile, "but don't worry. It's almost winter now. It's next year's business to rent."

"If you want to rent it, let's fix it in a few days." Eleven Niang thought about the rent of 300 Liang, "I'd better arrange a few rooms as early as possible. It looks like winter is coming. "

"I see." Xu Lingyi said and lay down.

Knowing that he was going to sleep, eleven Niang blew the light.

In the dark, she listened to his rustling and turning over. She wanted to ask Xu Lingyi whether she still followed the previous rules, and each aunt had five days' rest in the room or set a new rule? But listening to his gradually calming breath, she decided to find a chance to talk about it.

******

early the next morning, Xu Lingyi was sent to the morning. Amber was arranged at home. She took two second-class maid Lvyun and Hongxiu to greet Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai is telling Mrs. Du: "I'm sorry Pull out more charcoal. Let's send mother Ding from our small kitchen. Her hotpot is the best. It's getting colder and colder. Eat hotpot to keep it warm. In addition, the white plum orchid, bamboo, flower and satin were also brought to the Palace last year... "

Eleven Niang knew this was about the second lady.

Seeing her coming, Mrs. Tai waved to her: "we'll go to see Yizhen later."

Eleven Niang is very surprised.

Last night, Mrs. Tai didn't mention going to the other courtyard in Xishan. It seems that it was a temporary move Xu Lingyi went to the court directly this morning. She certainly didn't know that Mrs. Tai was going to another courtyard in Xishan.

She said to Mrs. Tai with a smile, "Niang, do you want to say something to the Marquis. And a lot of people sent along with them... "

"Don't worry!" Mrs. Tai said with a smile, "this is in Yanjing, not in Miao. Do you still fear who will hijack you? "Eleven Niang naturally accepted with a smile, and on the pretext of going back to change her clothes, she sent amber to the outer yard to look for manager Bai, and asked him to report to Xu Lingyi about Mrs. Tai's going to another courtyard in Xishan. And hastily changed a piece of scallion green four Xi grain of the mound went to too madam there.

I came across the third lady.

She just came out of Mrs. Tai's room with the account book in her hand.

"The fourth brother and sister are lucky enough to go out for a day. Unlike me, there is no free time every day. " There was a little disapproval in the tone.

It's nothing to do. You don't have to be brave.

eleven Niang said with a smile: "those who can do much work. We don't have a third sister-in-law, and we can't be so carefree. "

Three madams are very useful to listen to, the eyeground flashed a bit complacent. And eleven Niang chat a few words, excuse the matter busy to leave.

Eleven Niang just entered too madam's house, five madams came.

When they heard that they were going to another courtyard in Xishan, they also clamored to go: "I want to see my second sister-in-law."

Too madam laughs and scolds: "we go to send things to Yi Zhen, not go out to play. You can stay at home for me. You can't run around. "

She just pulled the sleeves of his wife.

Too madam this time but iron heart does not let her go out: "out of Yanjing road uneven..." I think she is pregnant, afraid of moving fetal gas.

Five Madame sees this, the smile becomes very obedient, the tone is also very sweet: "then I let servant girls accompany me to pick flowers in lijingxuan." A child's indulgence.

"Good, good, good." Retreat and beg next, too madam busy ground should, "can want to be careful, don't let what insect give sting."

"Five madams smile into a flower:" will not, will not. "

Too madam shakes head: "how so skin?" His face and eyes were full of smiles.

******

although it is light and easy to follow, more than a dozen black lacquered flattop carriages are arranged in a row, with three layers of guards inside and three outside, which is quite impressive.

Pedestrians on the road dodged.

A group of people went to the other courtyard in the west mountain.

Eleven Niang and too madam sit on a carriage, the expression still has some trance.

I didn't expect to get out of Xu's house without any preparation

She was careful to serve Mrs. Tai for fear that she would not feel well. After all, she was old, and the carriage had no shock absorption measures, so she might not be able to withstand the turbulence.

Too madam but smile her nervous: "nothing, nothing." But eleven Niang's filial piety or let her in the heart is very useful.

After walking for about an hour and a half, we arrived at the other courtyard in the west mountain.

A boy had already reported to the steward of the other courtyard and entered the gate of weeping flowers. The servant girl and the old lady fell on the ground.

Two madams face with shame to greet: "Niang, it is daughter-in-law bad!" And eleven Niang say hello, "let four younger sister drag step."

Eleven Niang hurried forward to meet the second lady.

Too madam is ha ha ground smile: "I come to see you live not used to!" Looking around.

The old trees in the other courtyard in the West Mountain are deep, and the white walls and green bricks are interspersed among them, just like a simple and elegant ink painting. In the courtyard, the blue stone corridor is clean and tidy, the black column landing column is polished, and the newly opened chrysanthemum is placed on the stone railing pole.

Too Madame satisfied nodded, by the second lady helped into the room.

On the painting table, there are red Dan, yellow brown, ink and paper. Obviously, the second lady was painting before they arrived.

Mrs. Tai went to the painting table.

It's a picture of the red leaves of the west mountain, which is about to be colored.

The second lady said with a smile, "mother, don't worry about me. I'll be fine here. "

Mrs. Tai looked at the bright white curtain, cloisonne three legged elephant trunk censer, and the hibiscus on the blue and white goblet on the high table, and said with a smile: "you like it."

"The scenery here is unique." The second lady helped Mrs. Tai to sit on the big Kang near the window of the east room. The servant girl Jiexiang presented the old gentleman's eyebrow to the people to drink. "It's very comfortable to get up and walk in the woods every day, and then go back to the house or do painting or reading

Mrs. Tai laughed more deeply.

The second lady and eleven Niang exchanged greetings: "did you just come back yesterday? How is the first lady? "

"Everything is fine." She and the second lady were polite.

Mrs. Tai asked Mrs. du to bring in the things for the second lady.

The servants filed in and out. The soft and soft welcome pillow, the crystal plate, the enamel hand stove, the jade like sheep horn palace lamp, the silver gilded gold hairpin flower warm inkstone box A small half of the Kang was piled up.

The second lady is very uneasy: "Niang, I can't use so many things."

"It's no more convenient here than at home." "Too madam does not agree," if you want what, can't put in the heart silent. Just tell me. "

The second lady was busy bending his knees and saluting to Mrs. Tai. She asked Jiexiang to collect the things, accompanied her to drink tea, and asked about her body. A mother came in to show her: "where is the lunch?" The second lady looked at his wife.

Too madam laughs: "put here!"The old lady bowed her knees with a smile and asked people to carry the table. The second lady put the chopsticks in person.

Eleven Niang of course also won't be idle, help to fight.

Just arranged almost, a boy ran in and said, "is the Lord coming?"

So fast?

Eleven Niang slightly surprised.

I saw Xu Lingyi come in with great strides.

He was dressed in a bright red official uniform, with the lion on the patch holding his head high and imposing.
