Seeing Feng Ziying's half-smiling expression, Jin Chuan'er was so smart, but it was because he was in trouble that he was frightened by Feng Ziying. At this moment, he immediately woke up and stamped his feet with a flushed face: "I don't have a straight face, all day long. They are here to play tricks on us contemporary people..."
Feng Ziying beamed with joy, and she felt even more "hateful and annoying" in the eyes of several girls. They all stared and stamped their feet with disobedient looks on their faces, which gave Feng Ziying a taste of what it's like to be a child among the flowers.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Normally, you always think that I am too mature and old-fashioned, but now you think I am hateful." Feng Ziying shook her head, "That's why the saints say that they are villains and Women are difficult to raise. If you are close, you will feel inferior, if you are far away, you will resent them. What should I do?"
It made several girls complain.
Qingwen could finally feel why Jin Chuan'er, Xiang Ling and Yun Shang were in such a happy mood at the Feng Mansion.
In the past, I felt that Jin Chuaner and the others looked happy when they came to Jia's house and talked about living in Feng's house, and that they were pretending to show off. But now that they have only been here for a few days, they feel that they are not the same as Jia's house. It's completely different over there.
Things are similar to those in the Jia Mansion, except that he is not so particular. The key is that the atmosphere here is so good.
This master brings his servants close to each other but does not indulge them. Jin Chuaner, Xiang Ling and Yun Shang are also very disciplined. Baoyu seems to have some fun and play between the master and his servants, but they are not like that. There is no principle of laissez-faire, but this one shows love and care from the heart.
As for this man's responsibility and sense of responsibility, he cannot be compared to someone like Baoyu.
"Well, I said, you are all my people, how can you allow others to mess with you? The same goes for Qingwen!" Feng Ziying said carelessly: "Qingwen has passed, and she will follow the future grandma. Half a year later I just got married, so don’t worry about me..."
This sentence made the other girls laugh, and they all looked at Qingwen with a playful look. Qingwen also blushed, but faced Feng Ziying bravely: "How can you not remember me? But if grandma wants to marry, she must marry her." Grandpa is one, Qingwen is taking good care of grandma over there, so naturally she is also taking good care of me."
"Well, what Qingwen said makes sense, but I am speechless." Feng Ziying stopped her smile and said seriously: "I like hearing what you say, and I also believe that you are a person who abides by the rules. Grandma's scholarly family She is from a good background and has a kind temperament, so you don’t need to worry. I also told her that you just have to do your own thing, but again, in the end, you are just like them, they are all my people! "
The last sentence was so meaningful that Qingwen's heart trembled, but she bit her lip and said solemnly: "Qingwen will be my person all her life, and she will be my person in the next life."
Hearing the fiery words of this pretty girl, Feng Ziying was intoxicated by her beauty. Being able to conquer a woman's heart was as much pleasure as winning on the battlefield, especially for someone like Qingwen who had gone through all kinds of trials and hardships. Girls.
"Jinchuan'er, let's celebrate today. Congratulate Qingwen on her recovery and congratulate Yuchuan'er on her return. Let's have a drink in the house. It's lively. Go to the kitchen and give orders to prepare something. Food, you have to cook and show me your skills! I will reward you!"
The room suddenly burst into cheers.
Normally, alcohol is not allowed. Although the wine that the daughters drink these days seems to Feng Ziying to be just like fermented glutinous rice juice, the taste and artistic conception are different without the wine. With the wine, the atmosphere is completely different. .
Several girls have been coming to Feng Mansion for so long, and they haven't had many opportunities to drink. Even if they secretly take a sip occasionally, it's just to satisfy their cravings.
There is naturally no shortage of wine in the Feng Mansion. Feng Ziying's initiation of abstinence naturally made several girls extremely excited.
Feng Ziying also didn't expect that he would become like Jia Baoyu in the book "A Dream of Red Mansions" and have to hold such a family dinner when he was far away, but the atmosphere and taste made him very satisfied.
As soon as the round table was set up, several girls became busy, and even Qingwen got dressed to help.
After more than a year of renovation, the Feng Mansion also bought the two neighboring yards and the dilapidated house behind it, demolished it, dug it up, and then started to rebuild and repair it one after another. So far, it has been completed Taking shape.
Especially the long house courtyard has been basically completed, and the entire courtyard is larger than the old courtyard here.
Originally, Feng Ziying thought that the Changfang courtyard over there was so big. There were only two of us in the house, plus there were only about ten maids and servants. How could it be so big? Even the uncle's concubine now finds it more convenient to live here.
But Duan disagreed.
In her opinion, since Feng Ziying is a married woman, she must follow the rules and the three bedrooms must be separated.
Once the eldest house's courtyard is built, that's where the eldest house belongs. Once the son marries a wife, he should live there.
If Lin's daughter from the third bedroom also gets married in two or three years, the third bedroom will naturally be repaired according to the scale, and it cannot be weak.
Naturally, Feng Ziying couldn't disobey my mother's wishes, so she could only let him go. But such a big long house with only ten or twenty people living in the courtyard would be too deserted, so there was no choice between the courtyard over there and the courtyard with three bedrooms. The sides are also connected, and there are small doors connecting them, which is convenient.
Now Feng Ziying still lives in her old yard, but it has been expanded and is much larger than before.
According to Duan's idea, when Feng Ziying gets married at the end of the year and moves to the Changfang compound next door, it will be almost time to demolish part of the third-bedroom house and start rebuilding it. The third-bedroom courtyard must be equal to that of the Changfang. The room is.
This kind of thought also made Feng Ziying speechless.
After all, there are only a few elders in the third room. In terms of real close relatives, I only have my mother and aunt plus my father who is not in the capital. How can I make such a clear distinction?
But what I said makes sense. Since the imperial court has ennobled you and the Ministry of Rites has approved the concurrent service, you must follow the rules and don't break the rules and be criticized.
Yu Chuan'er went and locked the courtyard door. There were only six of them, Feng Ziying, in the entire inner courtyard. They were not afraid of people coming from the wife's courtyard to check her at night.
Anyway, if anything happens, I will take care of it, and the girls are also very excited and indulgent.
Seeing all the dishes and jugs of wine being served, Feng Ziying also asked everyone to sit down, set the rules for drinking, and then started eating.
The rules of this wine business are actually very simple, that is, beating the drum to pass the flowers, the person doing the order is blindfolded, and hits the bowl with chopsticks. When the chopsticks stop, whoever has the flowers in his hand will be punished with a cup of wine or a poem.
Feng Ziying had never had such a relaxed and happy time with these girls. There were too few people in the past, but now Qingwen is here and Yuchuan'er is back. With five girls and herself, she can make do.
But on such occasions, how could Feng Ziying ever play with these girls who joined forces?
The sweat towel as a flower could fall into Feng Ziying's hands at any time, either drinking or reciting poetry.
How could Feng Ziying dare to recite poetry? The little things she had in her stomach could only be used at a critical moment. If she used them at this time, it would be difficult to put them to use when encountering "dangerous situations" in the future.
Even though Feng Ziying was immune to this kind of alcohol, she still couldn't withstand such repeated "torture". Later, Yun Shang let go of her temper a little, which made Feng Ziying breath a sigh of relief.
When I woke up, the fragrance around me was fragrant, but Yun Shang, wearing only a small coat, was nestling next to her, feeling refreshed and ready to enjoy a meal. It was only when I checked with my hand that I discovered that there was actually cotton padding under the small coat.
Feng Ziying was shocked, but she saw Yun Shang, who had already woken up, with a red face and full of regret, "Master, what a coincidence, Yun Shang Tiangui came last night. How about I go and ask Xiang Ling to come, Jin Chuan'er seems to be here too." coming,……"
Feng Ziying looked up to the sky and sighed. This Yun Shang still thought that she was really on the wrong side of her. She still thought about it and was reluctant to let go, but at the critical moment, she was like this.
Just seeing Yun Shang's uneasy and regretful look, Feng Ziying suddenly felt enlightened. There were people on both sides of her, so why bother with this moment?
Shaking his head, he simply took Yun Shang into his arms, feeling the fragrance and beauty of the beauty in her arms, and the pair of jade bamboo shoots that could be held were able to talk and comfort her.

When Wang Wenyan and his party arrived at the capital city, it was already August.
Things in Yangzhou City have been basically straightened out, and everything that can be handed over has been handed over to Duan Xigui and Fan Jingwen.
These are two types of resources. Business and personal connections will naturally be given to Duan Xigui. Feng Ziying will also give some useful resources to Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng.
Wang Wenyan, Wu Yaoqing, Cao Yu, plus Qian Guisheng, this was Lin Ruhai's core team at that time, and they basically brought them all over.
Wang Wenyan turned out to be in charge of official matters and was in charge of overall affairs. Wu Yaoqing was in charge of the affairs of the Three Religions and Nine Streams. His main responsibility was the collection of intelligence and providing intelligence to the salt transfer envoy Si Yamen on the release of salt and the production and distribution of salt. Cao Yu is responsible for sorting and summarizing.
As for Qian Guisheng, his role is rather special. He is more responsible for making up for the income and expenditure of salt class money, that is, he is responsible for the income and expenditure of various types of money, including open and secret ones.
He has a very detailed knowledge and close relationship with the business dealings with banks and banks in Yangzhou City, as well as these industries and salt merchants in Nanzhili, Huguang, and Jiangxi.
It can be said that for Lin Ruhai, apart from Wang Wenyan and Qian Guisheng, these two people are Lin Ruhai's real confidants. Although Wu Yaoqing is involved in a wide range of matters, after all, the matters involved in salt affairs are relatively narrow, which makes Wu Yaoqing unable to use many of his abilities. come out.
