Chapter 19 On the nineteenth day after being reborn as Lady Jia,

everyone in and outside the mansion knew that several girls in the mansion needed servants, and Daiyu's and hers were not suitable. Because Lin Ruhai left this time, he kept Lin Youcai, the youngest son of the housekeeper Lin Zhong.

It is said that Lin Youcai named himself, and he did not let his father change it.

Daiyu asked him with a smile, "How did you come up with this name?"

Lin Youcai stood below scratching his head and grinning, "My eldest brother has been following the master, so he took a literary name, Lin Zhihe. But when it comes to me, my father wants me to be called Lin Qiushi, isn't this a farmer? So I want to name myself, Lin Youcai, and I guarantee that I will be more talented than my brother in the future."

Immediately, the three sisters and Baochai who were surrounding Daiyu couldn't stop laughing.

"Look, these autumn fruits are so ambitious." Baochai pointed with her fingers and smiled, "This one is Zhihe, and the other is Qiushi. Your father is also a rare kind-hearted father. He hopes that the eldest son will have harmonious interpersonal relationships and the youngest son will be steady and stable, but the youngest son..."

At the end, she couldn't continue and laughed.

Seeing that the girls at the top were all laughing, Lin Youcai also laughed foolishly.

Daiyu saw it, wiped her tears with a handkerchief to stop laughing, and pushed Baochai, "Don't bully this honest child anymore, come." She waved to Lin Youcai. Lin Youcai would walk through the front door in the future and could only enter the second door occasionally, so she had to explain it in advance.

Lin Youcai was only twelve or thirteen years old, but he was called "honest child" by the eight or nine-year-old young lady at the top. His naive face blushed, but he obediently took two steps forward.

"Do you know what you are going to do in the future?" Daiyu asked.

"I know. Dad said that Miss wants to open a shop. When the shopkeeper is in place, he asked me to keep an eye on the shop, catch the big ones and let the small ones go, and report to Miss every quarter." Lin Youcai said.

"What a catch the big ones and let the small ones go." Baochai sighed in her heart. This salt inspector Lin Ruhai is really extraordinary. Even the manager around him is so smart.

Lin Youcai continued to scratch his head and grin, but he only stared at Lin Daiyu and waited for instructions.

Lin Daiyu was also very thoughtful. Seeing Lin Youcai's character, she now understood why her father had left Lin Youcai for her alone. She said, "In this case, I won't say much. As for the business of the shop, it has always been selling rouge and powder, and I won't make any changes. You can look for a shopkeeper in this area."

As she spoke, she took a pen and calculated, "The location of the shop that Sister Feng found for me is good. Although I haven't seen it, according to what Sister Feng said, it can make profits for thirty to forty years a year. In the first year, I don't ask for growth, just to protect the capital. There is also a house, as long as the rent is fixed. But the farm with a hundred acres of fertile land seems a little far away..."

At this time, Baochai took over, "I know that place. Although his family only has a hundred acres of fertile land, There are many woodlands on the hills behind, which were originally used for hunting by the male master. There is also a hot spring on the top. But the price offered by his family is quite high, and most people are discouraged. I didn't expect that Sister Feng bought it for you. "

Speaking of hot springs, Daiyu and Sanchun's eyes lit up. Daiyu said, "That's okay. Although it's only a hundred acres, it can also yield one or two hundred shi of land. I will collect 50% of the rent for the time being."

She looked at Lin Youcai, "Sister Feng said that the tenants have not moved away. I think it's still the original village head. You go and contact them. If there is anything you can't decide, come back to me. I'll let Xueyan come to the second gate often."

Xueyan was also eleven or twelve years old, but she was still childish. Since she came to the Jia Mansion, she didn't get involved in Daiyu's affairs, and she was also a little depressed. Daiyu thought of the friendship since childhood, so she wanted to arrange a job for her.

Lin Youcai hurriedly agreed.

Daiyu settled everything here, and Xichun found Ruhua's brother Lu'er.

It was just that Lu'er originally followed Jia Zhen, but Youshi heard about Xichun's situation and sent Lu'er here. Jia Zhen didn't care at all, and even complained a little, "Little girl, why do you do this when you can't just embroider and write poems?" Only when Youshi said that the old ancestor allowed it, he stopped talking.

But Xichun invited Lu'er here, and she didn't know what to do, and she was playful, so she just left it to Lu'er. Lu'er discussed with Ruhua, and then put the four treasures of the study, poems, calligraphy and paintings, and made a study.

Yingchun and Tanchun were left. Yingchun had become a little tougher in the past six months, but she had always been indifferent to things, and even avoided things in the past. So even if she had the intention now, when Mrs. Xing came to her and wanted Wang Shanbao's grandson to run errands for her, she thought that he was Siqi's cousin, so she agreed. Siqi seemed a little reluctant, but she didn't say anything in the end.

Yingchun's shop, on the other hand, was engaged in the business of hairpins and jewelry after discussions among several parties.

All the parties had already settled the matter, but something went wrong with Tanchun.

Tanchun had big ideas and had even thought about what to run in the future. She was determined to make something effective.

But she didn't expect Aunt Zhao to come to her in a hurry and said, "Miss, I heard that you haven't found someone for your shop yet. Why don't you let Guoji run the shop for you?" Tanchun

frowned and said, "Since he is following Huan'er, he should just follow him to the end. Anyway, he can't do the accounting, so what's the point of going to the shop?"

Aunt Zhao was unhappy, "Then let Huai'er run errands for you, right?"

"I know my own limits and follow the rules. Whoever I choose is whoever I choose." Tanchun said.

"What rules? Where are the rules?"

Tanchun sneered, "Even if I am picky about people, I choose those with clean hands and feet." How could she dare to use someone like Qian Huai.

"What are you talking about? Can your uncle embezzle your Huai'er and run errands to ruin your shop?"

Tanchun threw the book, "My uncle, my uncle has just been promoted to the governor of nine provinces, how can he be my uncle!"

"You you!" Aunt Zhao was so angry that her face turned pale, "Look, you want to please the wife again, have you forgotten whose belly you were born in? Now that the ancestors are merciful, you don't want to pull us, but only think about outsiders."

Tanchun was also angry with Aunt Zhao. She thought about the "Laws and Regulations" she had read in the past few months. How could the brothers of the aunt be uncles? Not to mention that they were originally family children, slaves, and lowly; even if they were freed from slavery, the concubine's family was not considered as the husband's in-laws.

How could Tanchun not feel inferior for her birth

? She tried her best to cover up her identity as a concubine. Aunt Zhao's words "whose belly were you born in" completely destroyed all her cover-ups, especially the words of flattery, which trampled on her dignity.

She cried, "You are always thinking about me, and you have never thought about me. You make trouble all day long. The peace I finally have is all destroyed by you. What do I need this shop for?" She

tore up the account book.

The maid outside heard the noise and rushed in. Only then did she stop Tanchun, but Tanchun's tears could not stop flowing. She just sobbed. Aunt Zhao was so embarrassed.

The noise here not only alarmed the maids below, but also Daiyu and Baoyu.

Baoyu did not have to go to school during this period, and went to play with his sisters. When he heard about Tanchun, he came to visit her in the evening. But Tanchun cried with red eyes, lying on the bed with her back to everyone, refusing to pay attention to anyone.

Baoyu tried to persuade her for a long time but it was useless. Finally he spoke the truth, "I've wanted to say these things for a long time. They're so boring. They make us unhappy. It's better to do some needlework, gossip and have fun on weekdays."

Yingchun and Xichun remained silent. Daiyu said, "The root of the problem is not the things. The key lies in the person who uses them." She herself was not greedy for money. Under the guidance of her nanny, she was even more clear-minded. She would not be too obsessed with them, but she would not ignore them either.

"Too vulgar." Baoyu glanced at her, then turned back and whispered.

Daiyu was very good at hearing, and immediately got angry, "I see that you have never been short of money, so you dare to say such things."

Baochai hurriedly persuaded, "Brother Bao, you should seriously read classics and history books in the future, so you say that, but it is better for a family like us not to be vulgar."

But Baoyu didn't appreciate it, "I don't want to read that nonsense."

Baochai was embarrassed immediately.

But they came to persuade Tanchun after all, so they turned to comfort Tanchun with the help of Yingchun and Xichun.

On this side, Nanny Han and Nanny Feng were also drinking tea at the old lady's place. While drinking tea, they heard Yuanyang report back what the girls had done in the past few days.

Nanny Han listened to a word and commented on it.

Speaking of Daiyu, Nanny Han said, "Zhongyong, Miss Lin is still more ambitious in poetry." Nanny Feng nodded, "The fourth girl is still too young, and the second girl..." She shook her head.

Han Ma Ma continued, "It will be difficult for her to make decisions about the shop in the future. However, it doesn't matter, there is always room for learning."

When it came to Tanchun, both of them sighed, "The third lady's character is too strong, but it hurts others and herself."

The old lady didn't say anything after hearing this, and went to read the comments of netizens. Sure enough, they all said -

"Too snobbish, uncles do

n't even act like uncles." "It's true that she is trying to please Mrs. Wang." "

But that Qian Huai doesn't seem to be a good person. "Qian Huai" "Qian Bad" wants to marry Liu Wu'er because he has money. "

It is said that if you break bones and connect tendons, you don't even want your own mother. Such people are cold-blooded."

In fact, the old lady also thought so.

Although she felt sorry for Tanchun who had to plan for herself at a young age, and Aunt Zhao was unreliable, Tanchun's snobbish attitude of wanting to peel off Aunt Zhao's blood flowing in her body still made her very uncomfortable.

This is incredible in modern times. If it was the old lady's daughter, she would rather never have given birth to such a daughter.

However, seeing what Nanny Han and Nanny Feng meant, they were very considerate of Tanchun's actions, so she did not say much.

Just like this, within two days, she heard that Tanchun had cheered up and asked Lady Wang to choose a servant to help her. The shop sells silk and satin, and through the relationship of the Zhen family, the goods were transported from Huzhou. After

the dust settled, it was gradually autumn, and the daughter of the Duke of Anguo sent someone to invite several girls from the Jia Mansion to enjoy the flowers.
