When Jiang Zhiyue and a group of people arrived at the end of the village, the Jiang family had just finished the work on the thatched house.
Mrs. Jiang, who was standing at the door looking towards the entrance of the village, was surprised when she saw Jiang Zhiyue coming back: "Zhiyue is back!"
Jiang Zhiyue smiled and ran to Mrs. Jiang: "Grandma, I'm back."
Old Mrs. Jiang looked at the few people Jiang Zhiyue brought back, and then thought of the five young adults who followed Sanlang back at noon today.
"You must be exhausted today. Why do you think of buying someone?"
"Our family is busy with things, and everyone is quite tired all day long. I just want to buy some cooks and help with some work, so that you can relax."
Mrs. Sun came over and interjected: "Oh, Zhiyue is still smart. With these servants in our family, it will definitely be a lot easier.'
The group of people walked in, including the nine newly purchased servants.
After entering the hospital, all the Jiang family members stood on the steps, the four elderly Jiang family members sat on stools, and the servants stood in a row in the yard.
Jiang Zhiyue first introduced Tian Qiu's family and Chen Quan to her family.
Then he looked at the five people who were bought back to look after the home and do odd jobs and said, "What are the names of you five?"
Those people said their names all over again, and there were three people who called them names like Donkey Dan Goudan, which were not pleasant and messy even if they were not pronounced.
Jiang Zhiyue changed their names. From oldest to youngest, they were called Jiang One, Jiang Two, Jiang Three, Jiang Four and Jiang Five.
After saying that, the servants also introduced everyone in each room of the Jiang family, so that they didn't even know the people in the master's family.
"There are a lot of chores at home. The five of you will mainly help with the work first. Tian Qiu and Chen Quan, you two. From now on, the food at home will be left to you. There is no shortage of food at home. If you run out of things, come to me to get money.
Go to town and buy it.'
"As for Huang Yuan, you can just follow the young masters at home. They study on weekdays, and you can do things with them."
Jiang Zhiyue and the others arranged a circle without calling Huang Ji's name. When Jiang Zhiyue stopped, Huang Ji asked, "What errands can you arrange for me?"
Jiang Zhiyue said: "Your injuries haven't healed yet, and you still have a high fever. I'll give you a few days to recuperate and wait until you recover before doing anything else.'
"yes."
There are three thatched huts temporarily built outside. Huang Ji's family has one room, and the remaining two rooms are shared by Chen Quan and six other people.
When these people came, they paid no respects and brought nothing with them.
Jiang Zhiyue also just noticed that the clothes they were wearing were still shabby, so she planned to write down the sizes of their clothes before going to town to buy uniform clothes tomorrow.
Now she asked Tian Qiu and Chen Quan to cook. The others didn't wait for Jiang Zhiyue's instructions and took the initiative to do anything they saw that came easily.
Mrs. Zhang took the two of them to the kitchen in the back yard. There were three pots in the kitchen, and basically all the grains, vegetables and meat were neatly stacked in a closet not far from the kitchen.
When the two of them first arrived at Jiang's house, they both tried their best to cook and wanted to prove their abilities. After the meal in the evening, everyone went back to the room with their stomachs full and holding their hair in their hands.
Before Tian Qiu and Chen Quan left the kitchen, they carefully cleaned the stove and the floor before closing the door and leaving. The five people also cleaned the yard and put all the debris in the utility room or on the wall.
While putting it away, everyone in the Jiang family was quite uncomfortable with it.
Before going to bed, Jiang Zhiyue gave them a ruler and asked them to measure their clothes size, and asked Jiang Erlang to write it down.
Because Li Wen had already gone to the mountain camp and Sanlang returned to Jiang's house at noon, Jiang Zhiyue did not let him go to the mountain again today.
On the second day, Li Wen went down the mountain again to find Jiang Zhiyue. The main purpose of going down the mountain was to deliver a letter.
Late last night, Ouyang Ming's letter from the capital arrived.
Jiang Zhiyue handed Sanlang to Li Wen, and then took the letter back to her house.
What Li Wen handed to Jiang Zhiyue were two bamboo tubes. The bamboo tubes were not big. Jiang Zhiyue opened them and took out a few pieces of letter paper.
The content in one of the bamboo tubes is Ouyang Ming's response to Jiang Zhiyue's last letter.
The letter told her to do whatever she wanted, but he didn't ask why Jiang Zhiyue had the confidence to get so much food when the whole country in the Wu Dynasty was short of food.
Jiang Zhiyue once wrote in a letter about food, saying that she had a way to obtain food and planned to open a Yimin food store in Wu Dynasty to adjust food prices to normal levels.
And what Jiang Zhiyue needs Ouyang Ming to do is to be the boss of the food store on the surface, she only needs to hide behind and provide food.
Ouyang Ming said that he had sent someone over for Jiang Zhiyue to dispatch.
The letter in another bamboo tube was written about Ouyang Ming's recent affairs in Beijing.
His whole family has been reunited. Although they cannot leave Beijing, the whole family is completely together. At the end of the letter, Ouyang Ming also asked everyone in the Jiang family.
Although he was in Beijing, he had already heard about the results of the college examination that had just passed not long ago. Knowing that Sanlang was actually a scholar who had passed the examination, he mentioned in the letter that Jiang Zhiyue should hand Sanlang over to Li Wen first, and what happened on the mountain.
You can also let Saburo know.
Jiang Zhiyue couldn't help but smile when she saw this. It had to be said that the two of them had a good understanding of each other, and their arrangements for Saburo coincided with each other.
After lunch, Jiang Zhiyue called Jiang Si, who knew how to drive a car, to go to town with her.
When they arrived in town, Jiang Zhiyue took Jiang Si and went straight to the clothing store.
She handed Chen Quan and nine other people's measurements to the shopkeeper, and each person ordered two summer clothes. In order to make them easier to identify, Jiang Zhiyue bought clothes of the same style for them.
Everyone in the Jiang family was not short of clothes, but Jiang Zhiyue didn't buy any. She came to town today to rent a small courtyard to store food.
When Ouyang Ming's people arrive, Jiang Zhiyue can put all the food in the small courtyard in advance, and then let his men go to work.
She went to the same dental shop, and the dentist was very impressed by this girl who just spent hundreds of taels of silver to buy a shop and a house yesterday.
Seeing Jiang Zhiyue coming again, Yaren, who was idle, smiled and said, "What do you want to see today, girl? A shop or a house?"
Jiang Zhiyue asked: "Is there a relatively secluded courtyard?'
Yaren walked out of the counter and asked: "In a secluded yard, how big a house does the girl want?"
Jiang Zhiyue thought for a moment and said, "Two or three rooms are enough, and the yard doesn't need to be too big, but it would be better if there were fewer residents around."
Yaren listened to Jiang Zhiyue's request, pointed to the two courtyards on the drawing paper and said: "These two places should meet the girl's requirements."
"This first courtyard is closer to the shop that the girl bought yesterday. It's on the same street behind the shop where you entered the courtyard three times."
"The second courtyard is more secluded. There are fewer residents on that street, and the courtyard is also at the end of an alley."
"I will ask someone to take you to see whichever place you like in the photo. If you want to see both places, I can accompany you."
Jiang Zhiyue carefully looked at the two courtyards pointed out by Yaren and asked him to take her to see them.
The yard they went to first was the one close to the house Jiang Zhiyue bought yesterday.
That street was full of large houses with two entrances and three entrances, but there was not enough space, so in the end this small courtyard was built.
There are many residents on this street, most of whom have some status. Jiang Zhiyue mentally rejected this place before even going to the yard to see it.
This yard is used to transport food back and forth, so the large number of people here is a disadvantage.
So after taking a look, Jiang Zhiyue asked Yaren to take her to another courtyard three streets away from here.
That courtyard was just as the Yaman said, the surroundings were very quiet.
The houses here are basically one house on a corner, and what happens in front of your house will not be seen by your neighbors.
Moreover, the alley aisles here are not narrow, and even if a carriage is passing, two carriages can drive side by side at the same time.
Jiang Zhiyue was very satisfied, so she returned to Yaxing and bought this small courtyard.
After the land deed was transferred, Jiang Zhiyue asked Jiang Si to take her to buy some meat and vegetables and then headed towards the village.
On the way out of the town and out of the village, you have to pass through a dense forest.
As soon as the oxcart drove into this small forest, Jiang Zhiyue heard shouts coming from the forest.
It was a gentle female voice, "Here, help! Is there anyone?"
There was another voice that sounded with this voice, still a girl's voice.
Jiang Zhiyue opened the car curtain and asked Jiang Si to slow down. After a while, the voice became clearer and clearer, accompanied by many men's voices that were unpleasant to hear.
Jiang Si hesitated and said: "Master, why don't we just leave? There should be a lot of people on the other side from this voice. I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat them by myself."
The intermittent sounds also made Jiang Zhiyue and Jiang Si almost understand what happened.
It turned out that two girls were stopped by a group of local gangsters when they were passing by. They just wanted to rob the money, but they didn't even let the two girls go.
In Jiang Si's opinion, his master looked like a fairy. If those people who robbed wealth and sex were seen, he would be unable to walk.
So Jiang Si directly said that he couldn't beat him partly for the sake of Jiang Zhiyue's safety.
The person opposite heard that there was strength in numbers. Although he knew how to use a brush, he did not dare to show off his power in front of so many people.
But it was too late to leave, because the two running and shouting women had already arrived on the trail, followed by a few slutty looking people.
The two women were so surprised when they saw someone that they ran towards the bullock cart. One of the two women was Fang Nian.
She saw a bullock cart in the middle of the road, and the driver was a man, so she wanted to get on the cart with her friend next to her and ask the man to drive the cart quickly and get rid of the people behind.
"Sir, please give us a ride. We will be grateful once we get rid of the people behind you."
Jiang Si naturally wanted to listen to Jiang Zhiyue, so he turned around and asked her for her opinion.
Jiang Zhiyue said: "Let them come up."
As soon as Jiang Zhiyue opened her mouth to speak, Fang Nian and another woman noticed her and were slightly surprised by Jiang Zhiyue's outstanding appearance.
The two of them ran to the bullock cart and climbed up quickly, looking at the men who were about to catch up behind them.
The woman who came with Fang Nian was upset and deliberately bumped into Jiang Zhiyue's direction, hoping to knock Jiang Zhiyue off the cart and buy time for them to escape.
