Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 666 Negotiation
Zhou Molan lovingly tucked Zhou Banxia's hair behind her ears, hoping that Jiang Ge'er could marry a noble lady so that her young lady could breathe a sigh of relief.

"My uncle is willing, but I can't agree to this. Jiang Ge'er is your brother, and the eldest young master here is also your brother-in-law's brother. It will be difficult to eliminate the trouble in the future."

Enemy!

That's what she meant. Let alone 20,000 taels of silver, even 2,000 taels would not be easy to give out openly. Fortunately, there was no need to consider this issue in a hurry now.

After all, we have to wait until Dajiang returns from his trip. If he does not object to this marriage, there are still a lot of red tape to go through before the betrothal gift is given.

By that time, the child would have been born, so there would be plenty of time to go to Zhoujia Village and discuss it with my uncle and aunt. It would just be a matter of finding an excuse.

Thinking that there was no result yet and it was better to put it aside and wait, Zhou Banxia decisively changed the subject.

Speaking of the trip the day after tomorrow, she planned to ask He Jiaxing from Gu Dachang's family to send Qi San and others to Zhoujia Village on her and her husband's behalf, and asked if it was feasible.

As soon as Zhou Molan heard this, she knew that her girl wanted to ask her if she could leave Gu Dachang's house before the New Year. Her eyes couldn't help but fall on Zhou Banxia's belly.

Even if Gu Dachang's family could get away, what could be more important than the young master?

"It's better to let Mai Huang go, and let Dali go again. Jiaxing will be indispensable to my son-in-law at home from now on. If Mai Huang leaves, there is still Dachang's family to take over."

The so-called top naturally refers to the key to the warehouse, as well as the arrangements for personal relationships, etc. There is also Mai Qing who assists Gu Dachang's family, so there will be no chaos.

Zhou Banxia also understood this. In fact, the most suitable candidates were Gu Dahua and his wife, but they were busier and couldn't leave recently no matter what.

One of them works as a housekeeper in the main courtyard, and her mother-in-law is used to working with her. There is a lot of work to do at the end of the year, so it is not convenient for her to go out for some time. And the other one?
Gu Dahua is now comparable to a butler, and Uncle Chang Qing has decided, after careful consideration, to let him take over in the future. Now he brings him around to give guidance whenever he has time.

After discussing who would go out the day after tomorrow, it was almost noon. When Zhou Banxia heard Zhou Molan mention that she wanted to go see Doctor Lin, it was exactly what she wanted.

Gu Wenxuan was not at home the past two days. As long as they were not having lunch in the main courtyard, Doctor Lin and the others would come to her place to sit. But they definitely won't come today.

If anyone came, it would only be Doctor Lin and the midwife, who would come to take the patient's pulse or take a look around the kitchen. The three little girls would never come together again.

As it happened, Ma Shan and Bao Ya didn't come to see her this morning. It would be more lively for her to eat with them in the guest room at the back instead of eating alone.

After hearing Zhou Banxia say that she looked pitiful for having lunch alone, Zhou Molan simply didn't stop her. After all, it wasn't far and she would accompany her.

Her daughter is actually very sensible. For the sake of the little master in her belly, she rarely goes out of the yard. She stays in the house all day, so it would be good for her to walk around for a while.

She asked Maidong to dress her up, but was stopped by Zhou Banxia, ​​which made Zhou Molan laugh and cry.

She had never seen her daughter so uninterested in dressing up!
For example, on the head, there are so many head ornaments, but I often like to use only a wooden hairpin.

The girls in her family have a lot of head jewelry. How many are they?

A room in the west wing in front was cleared out to store head ornaments and jewelry. The shelves were filled with a dazzling array of items, and most of the valuable items were packed in boxes and kept in cages and had not been taken out yet.

There are many sources.

In addition to the items purchased by the son-in-law, gifts between peers, gifts from elders, and the eldest daughter's gifts, there were also gifts from the emperor and empresses. Especially the gold, silver, jewelry, silks and satins given by the latter, her daughter still kept them intact in the boxes.

Most people in the world are keen on power and wealth as their lifelong pursuit, but her girl is lucky enough that she doesn't have to worry about three meals a day and is content as long as no one can bully her.

However, her girl's temperament is rare in the world. She is gentle, filial, intelligent and generous. She handles things thoughtfully without showing off. Everyone is very satisfied with her.

When talking about her daughter, everyone thinks that the son-in-law is very lucky to have married such a virtuous wife. It is a blessing for the son-in-law and a blessing for his family.

In order to make it easier for Doctor Lin and Midwife Chen to take care of Zhou Banxia nearby, they lived in the west courtyard. Going out of the backyard, there was a courtyard next to the garden where they lived.

When the manor was being built, this small courtyard was originally designed by Gu Wenxuan in the hope that if he had a daughter in the future, he would not have to move to the outer courtyard like his son would when he grew up.

His daughter must be raised in a secluded place, by his and his wife's side. Even when she grows up and has to live separately, the closer they are, the better.

The manor was originally built, but considering that he didn't know when his daughter would be born, he wanted to decorate it a little first. But it happened that Zhou Banxia was pregnant.

Now it's a good idea. We don't know whether it's a boy or a girl. Before we find out, we can let the carpenter start the work, so he immediately arranged it.

Therefore, this courtyard, like the main courtyard and the guest garden in the outer courtyard, is equipped with ground dragons, and people had the ground dragons burned before learning that the daughter of the Qi family was arriving.

If Qi Wenhui hadn't come, Gu Wenxuan would have been reluctant to let outsiders live in his daughter's yard.

Even if Doctor Lin didn't want to live in the outer courtyard guest house with Doctor Song, the courtyard where he and his wife lived had guest rooms, and even the little girl from the midwife's family had a room.

Therefore, when Gu Wenxuan suggested that it would be better to take care of the child nearby and arrange for Dr. Lin and the midwife to live here, Zhou Banxia found it a bit strange.

If it was closer, she could stay directly in the guest room in the front yard of her yard. She mistakenly thought that Gu Wenxuan could stay at home after the annual exam, as she didn't like the inconvenience of coming in and out.

She didn't think much about it for a moment. The number of guests coming was far more than he had said before, so she didn't think much about it. Little did she know that there was another thing going on.

Passing by the now bare garden, which only saw rockery, winter plums, and trees with only branches left, Zhou Banxia wanted to laugh even more when she thought of Gu Wenxuan's hard work.

According to his original idea, the garden here would be planted with various flowers and plants, blooming all year round, and his daughter would not know whether she would be cold sitting on the swing!
Unlike the bare garden that looks cold, the courtyard next to it is obviously lively and full of people and warmth, and you can even hear the sound of a flute flowing smoothly like a trickle.

Zhou Banxia couldn't help but slow down his pace.

The sound of the flute is melodious, soft and graceful, as if it is pouring out thousands of words, with the right emotions, whether happy or sad, it is really a "girl's feelings are always poetic".

It's very good.

I don't know what song it is. I have never remembered hearing it before, and it doesn't seem to be in the music scores I have collected. It doesn't look like an adaptation. Could it be an original creation?

Who created this talent?
Zhou Banxia was puzzled and subconsciously turned his head to look at Zhou Molan.

hiss~
How could I have forgotten that Aunt Lan is just like the one in her family. She is proficient in almost everything except music theory. It is true that pregnancy makes people stupid for three years.
