Jade color and fragrance

Chapter 96

Liu Lizhang of Liushu Village hurried over, saw Yan Yu and bowed, "The county magistrate is here, I am far away to welcome you, and I hope you will forgive me."

"Get up. Tell me about the situation at this aunt's house."

According to Liu Lichang, what Aunt Zhang said is true. She is kind-hearted, honest and honest, and will never leave her mother-in-law.

Yan Yu felt relieved and winked at Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng then said: "Liu Lichang, Aunt Zhang wants to raise a child in the Yan's Girls' Hall, so we are here to check for a while. After the child is delivered to the village in a few days, I hope you will pay more attention to it." Take care. Aunt Zhang is raising the child on her behalf. We have registered with the household department, and the Yan's Girls' Hall is even more favored by the emperor. You don't want to let the child get hurt."

"Ms. Zhang's ability to take care of this child is a major event for our entire Liushu Village. I will definitely live up to the entrustment of the county lord and adults."

After this incident, if someone wants to raise a child on their behalf, Liu Sheng and Bai Zhen will come to check as usual, and those who can really treat their children well will agree.

Gradually, it became a trend in the capital to take care of children from Yan's Girls' Hall.

There was also a wealthy family who took the initiative to go to the Girls' Hall and offered to donate money every month, Yan Yu naturally couldn't ask for it.

According to Mr. Zhou's instructions, outside the Yan's Baby Girls Hall, the status of children's surrogacy, the expenses of the Girls Baby Hall, and the status of donations are announced every day.

For a while, the words Yan's Girls' Hall appeared in the conversations of the people in the streets and alleys, and Yan Yu's reputation among the people reached its peak.

People are even proud of buying the cakes, rouge, and cloth from Yanyu's shop. They know that part of the profits of these shops will go to the Girls' Hall.

Yan Yu's Cloth Shop and the new pastry shop on Changnan Avenue opened in such an atmosphere.

Mr. Zhou was standing in front of the cloth shop decorated with lanterns and festoons, and was about to give a speech, when the crowd of onlookers were already shouting: "Shopkeeper, don't talk, the door is open to welcome customers, let's buy them all."

Mr. Zhou smiled. He was always in the wind, but now he smiled like a spring breeze, which made the girls in front of the shop blush.He just said a few words and announced the opening.

All the judges flocked up, the largest cloth shop in the capital, Yan's cloth shop, all the goods that had just been sold, except for a very few precious silk and satin, were all emptied in less than half an hour.People don't care about the size of those ready-made clothes, they buy them as soon as they can find them. Anyway, if the family can't wear them, there are always relatives and friends who can wear them.

The pastries in the new pastry shop were sold out before Guanshi Zhao finished his speech.

Those noble girls who came late didn't buy either.

Nowadays, Yan Yu is still sought after by noble girls, but they never put Yan Yu in their eyes before. Now that she has become the head of the county, it would seem that she would lose her status if she embraced her again.They wanted to get in touch with Yan Yu through her shop, but they failed.

Yan Yu didn't appear in the cloth shop or pastry shop, she stayed in the Girls' Hall every day.That being the case, the ladies had no choice but to turn around and go to the Girls' Hall to get acquainted with her.

Although the noble ladies have other purposes, their hearts are good.Every time a noble girl comes to the Girls' Hall, she will bring a few maids and mothers to help with the work, and even the noble girls will help to copy and write.

Hearing that the children lack an enlightened female teacher, there are noble girls who are willing to come to help.

Among them, the most active one is Liu Qiang, the eldest daughter of Lord Zhen Guo.

Zhen Guogong is the emperor's companion. Over the years, he has fought for the emperor and is quite favored; his son Liu Ye has a good relationship with Xuanyue; Yan Yu made friends.

When the two met, they felt a little sympathetic to each other, Liu Qiang treated others with sincerity, as a girl in a boudoir, she actually had a lot of experience in raising children.Moreover, she is known as a talented woman in the capital, and she is more than enough to be a wife to the children.

As a noble lady, she can't stay here all day, she promised to teach the children every day, and a class is half an hour;

After noon, the female wife arranged for a shy girl.This girl is from the family of a sixth-rank official. She has just arrived in the capital, and her name is Cheng Ling. When the girls get along, she is always silent.However, when he came to the children, his voice was powerful and patient, making him a good candidate for wife.

Yan Yu accepted all other noble girls who wanted to educate their children.In the future, after the children are enlightened, they should not be taught in different levels. It is good to educate the children with your daughter's knowledge at any time.

The big kids already understood the truth.They were sold out by their parents, and they had the consciousness of being slaves for a lifetime.But I never thought that when I came here, not only did I eat delicious food and get paid for it, but the county lord even invited his wife to teach them how to read and write.He also said that when they grow up, they can go to the girl's shop as apprentices, and they will also have a craft to support themselves in the future.

One month after the opening of the Yan's Baby Girls Hall, its influence in the capital continued to expand. Bai Zhen devoted a lot of enthusiasm to the Girls' Hall. them.When she was young, her family was poor, but no matter how difficult she was, her parents never considered selling the child. She was lucky.

The helpless eyes of the children deeply moved her.

In the past, she only thought about helping the family's teahouse. In the future, she would marry a good man and have children, and she would be satisfied in this life.

But now, she wants her own life to be complete, and even more so, the lives of these children in the future will also be complete.

After all, Yan Yu is the head of the county, and there are many affairs to be dealt with at home, Zhuangzi and the shop have to worry about it.

The Baby Girl Hall costs a lot of money. To make the Baby Girl Hall a success, she needs to earn a lot of money. She can't just sit here and watch it all the time.

After everyone deliberated, Bai Zhen was elected as the head steward of the Girls' Hall.Bai Zhen was not shy either, and agreed generously.

In this way, although Yan Yu would come over every now and then to sit in town, she would be free to do other things, such as getting married, or looking for new business opportunities.

The first thing Bai Zhen did when he became a steward was to organize a thank-you party for the Girls' Hall.

In the past month, the Ministry of Households has sent a few small officials to help. Other officials and rich households donated money to adopt their children.Many people also sent rice, vegetables, and meat, and some women who were free also came to help take care of their babies.

Yan Yu is really grateful to them, how can she do such a good job on her own; the children can live a more stable life because of their kind deeds.

Bai Zhen and Yan Yu have no experience in organizing the appreciation party, but Liu Qiang is a good one.The tea parties and flower viewing parties in her family are all hosted by her alone.

Because of the Girls' Hall, the noble ladies are getting along happily with Baizhen now, and they don't regard her as a commoner woman at all.Liu Qiang readily agreed to be a "consultant" to help her sort out the invitation list and coordinate all affairs of the appreciation meeting.

In view of the fact that the people to be thanked are too complicated, Liu Qiang proposed to do it in two days.The first day is for officials and noble ladies, and the second day is for ordinary people, so that everyone can feel more comfortable.

The thick pink cotton padded clothes arrived, and after the children put them on, Yan Yu sometimes couldn't tell who was who. There was that naughty little girl who always caught her to guess, but now Yan Yu is no longer worried, the children's hands They all wear silver bracelets with their names on them.

The children have dressed up and are waiting for the thank-you party.
