When Tian Minyan and his entourage returned to their home in Yangmei Village, it was already after noon, and Xiaowu Lao had been waiting there for a long time. He saw Tian Minyan sticking his head out from the curtain of the carriage and shouting loudly into the house: "Mom, my dad."
My sister’s house is here.” Then he rushed over happily and climbed onto the carriage with nimble hands and feet.
"Do you miss daddy?" Tian Huairen jumped down first, hugged Xiao Wu and kissed him, his beard piercing his little face, making him giggle.
Luo Shi heard the sound and rushed out with a big belly. Seeing her husband whom she hadn't seen for a few days, she couldn't help but be excited: "Home is here."
"Well, I'm back." Tian Huairen smiled naively.
"Go in the house quickly. Hey, this is..." Luo Shi couldn't help but asked in shock when he saw a girl with a cold face next to Tian Minyan.
"Mom, this is Bai Mei, and she will be part of our family from now on." Tian Minyan smiled and winked at her.
"Bai Mei has met Madam." Bai Mei bowed slightly and saluted. Without waiting for Luo Shi to speak, she stood up straight, her face always cold.
Tian Minyan was used to seeing this, so she only frowned a little when Xiaoxing came out, but didn't say anything. Luo Shi caught her daughter's look and said nothing.
"Come into the house and talk. The food has been laid out and is waiting for you." Luo Shi welcomed everyone into the house with a smile.
We hadn’t seen each other for a few days, and everyone was very friendly and lively, laughing and chatting at the dinner table. After the meal, Tian Minyan asked Xiaoxing to take Bai Mei to live in a room with her, and the whole family went back to the west wing to take a break and talk.
Tian Minyan first told Luo Shi and others about the shop, and finally said: "We are all ready, and we are just waiting for the opening on the eighth day of August. Mom, our whole family will go to the county to congratulate the opening of the shop."
Luo Shi was very happy after hearing this. After all, this was their first shop. Regardless of his bulging stomach, he agreed with a smile.
Then, Luo Shi asked about Bai Mei and said, "Why did you buy another maid?"
Tian Huairen and Tian Minyan looked at each other, and considering that there were boys at home, they asked Tian Minrui and Xiao Wu to go out to play. Tian Minrui also slept well and took Xiao Wu outside.
Tian Minyan then explained the cause and effect. After hearing this, Luo Shi wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "Well, how could this person be so bad? Such a good girl is really guilty."
"Mom, Bai Mei is a very spirited girl. She doesn't want sympathy from others. Just treat her like you don't know anything and treat her like a little star." Tian Minyan thought of Bai Mei's cold and almost indifferent temperament and said:
"She has gone through a big change and her temperament is colder, but that's okay. Mom, don't blame her."
"It's so pitiful, how can you blame her." Luo Shi was a gentle-tempered person, and she was pregnant. When she heard that Bai Mei's life experience was even more pitiful than Xiaoxing's, her motherly love suddenly became overwhelming, and she kept saying: "Those god damn things
Yes, you will definitely be punished by God."
"Mom, although Bai Mei is our maid, she has not sold herself to us. I plan to let her follow me in the future. She is older than me and has more experience, so I also need a maid to follow me."
Tian Minyan had already thought about it. She didn't have a maid by her side, so it was always inconvenient. Bai Mei was two years older than her, and had experienced major changes and catastrophes, so she had a calmer mind.
Furthermore, she had been in a dirty pond like the He family, and she knew a lot about the dirty things in a wealthy family. With her guidance, she was better informed.
And the most important point is to cultivate a capable assistant who will naturally act by her side, be her ears and eyes, and clearly understand and be familiar with her style of doing things.
"Since she was brought by you, just follow her. Just a little bit. Nanny, just listen to those dirty things, but don't..." Luo Shi reminded her, a little speculative.
Her daughter was her life, and for such a clean person, she naturally didn't want those dirty things to taint her mind. However, she didn't know anything and would suffer a loss, so she hesitated.
"Mom, don't worry, I understand everything."
After several people talked for a while, Tian Huairen couldn't sit still and hurried to go to the fields to look at the crops. Only Luo Shi and Tian Minyan, mother and daughter, were left.
Tian Minyan then talked about Tian Huaifang's visit to the shop again. After hearing this, Luo's face turned ugly and said: "Why do you think they are both like this? Our family is better off, one is tight and the other is tight."
Come and beat the autumn wind. In the past, hehe, they didn’t even look at us."
Tian Minyan didn't know why, so she said that Tian Huairen was an alien of the Tian family, but she was also glad that her predecessor was reincarnated in this alien.
"They have their own wishful thinking, but they also want to see if we can live up to it. I just laugh at them because they think they are a little smarter than others, so they treat us all like idiots." Tian Minyan sneered.
said one voice.
"No." Luo Shi sighed, grabbed the sewing basket on the side, and mended a child's clothes with needle and thread. He said at the same time: "Our family is lucky to have you now, otherwise your father's temper would be really bad.
Let them get their wish.”
"Mom, don't underestimate dad. He has seen a lot of the world now, and he is not as honest as he used to be." Tian Minyan laughed loudly, and then explained how Tian Huairen acted in the county and how he rejected Tian Huaifang.
The words were spoken.
Luo Shi then laughed and said: "No wonder you said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. That's why I saw that he was a little less dull when he came back this time."
"Mom is really happy for dad from the bottom of her heart?" Tian Minyan laughed teasingly.
"You're just a talkative girl." Luo Shi was teased by her daughter, and her face turned red. Her cheeks, which were plump due to pregnancy, were very pretty, as if she was several years younger.
The two mothers and daughters laughed and laughed for a while, then Luo Shi stroked his belly and said: "Okay, I won't be poor with you. Tell me, when this shop opens, who should I invite? Grandma Liu will definitely invite me, and shopkeeper Qin.
..."
Tian Minyan also thought about it in her mind. They only had good friends in the town, and there weren't many of them now. This was just a shop open, and it wasn't appropriate to invite folks from the countryside. Tian Minyan said that she wouldn't invite many people, but only a few people who had business dealings.
Home is.
"Well, over at Henghe, do you think we should invite the old man?" Luo Shi asked hesitantly, "You guys are not at home, Qian, but I sent a message over there, saying that it was your eldest aunt who told your eldest brother to marry Sister Zhuang.
Already."
"Oh? Which one did you mention?" Tian Minyan asked gossiping after hearing this.
Tian Minlin, the eldest son of the Tian family, is seventeen this year, and Tian Minzhuang, the eldest granddaughter, is also sixteen. They should have said goodbye a long time ago, but Mrs. Chen had been thinking about waiting until Tian Huaide became an official, or to marry a good family, so she delayed it until now.
.
Now she got her wish, but she didn't know which one she was talking about? But according to Chen, she would definitely not mention someone who was not high-minded.
"I heard that the third lady of our Qingzhou magistrate has taken a liking to her. The child is fourteen years old and looks like a flower. She is very beautiful." Luo Shi whispered: "The one I told Sister Zhuang is from our county.
Here is the eldest son of the Fang family who makes silk and satin."
"Ah?" Tian Minyan was extremely shocked and said: "The Fang family, isn't it Fang Yu's family?"
The Fang family in the county is the one who makes silk and satin. Fang Yu and his family are rich and wealthy. The eldest son is only seventeen years old. I heard that he is also a very handsome and capable man. He is already a scholar at this age.
Luo Shi was also stunned and asked, "Is it Fang Yu's family?"
Tian Minyan sneered: "It's almost like Fang Yu and his family are the big silk and satin manufacturers in the county. Their young master has a good future. I heard from my brother that Fang Yu said that his brother is very good at studying and is preparing to take the imperial examination this year.
If you try it, it shouldn’t be a problem if you take the Juren exam.”
"If it can really happen, it would be a good place to go." Luo Shi was very excited after hearing this, but it was a pity that her daughter was only eleven years old. Thinking of this, she looked at Tian Minyan with a faint look.
Tian Minyan was so scared when she saw her that she immediately wanted to understand the meaning in her eyes. She twitched her lips and said in shame and annoyance: "Mom, I'm only eleven years old!"
"My daughter deserves the best man in the world." Luo Shi pursed her lips and smiled, pinched her cheek and said, "We are not in a hurry."
Tian Minyan secretly rolled her eyes and thought to herself, Mom, are you in a hurry?
"Don't tell me, I will tell you that this plan of aunt's will definitely not work."
Tian Minyan sneered, Chen's ambitions are really quite a lot, people say marry high and marry low, but she has a good plan, marry high and marry high.
The daughter of the prefect, not to mention that Tian Huaixiao is just a small county magistrate. Even if you are a magistrate, people may not think highly of you. Of course, there are no absolutes in everything. If Tian Minlin really has his outstanding achievements, he may really make people
I like it, but as for him, he is already seventeen, and he is still just a boy. He has already taken the exam twice, right?
Let’s talk about Tian Minzhuang. Although the Fang family is just a businessman, I heard that Fang Yu’s mother-in-law’s family is an official and gentry family. This Fang family is not an ordinary businessman. Moreover, Fang Yu’s eldest brother Fang Xian is a promising man.
, although Tian Minzhuang can be called an official lady now, she is just a middle-aged girl. How can the Fang family take a fancy to her?
Therefore, it is definitely impossible to say that these two families are related.
"Hey, your eldest aunt is very ambitious. It doesn't matter if this man gets married later, but this girl can't afford to delay." Luo Shi said while sewing: "I heard that there are also matchmakers who come to propose marriage.
There are several people with good conditions, but your eldest aunt is the only one who doesn't like them. If she had thought more openly and lowered her temperament, she would have chosen someone with similar conditions early on, which would be considered a blessing for Sister Zhuang and the others."
Tian Minyan was convinced. She still didn't know yet whether Tian Huaide would lose his official position in the future, but this person was so ignorant of reality that he would only achieve nothing if he did not achieve high or low results. He said: "
Everyone has their own destiny, and we have nothing to do with their affairs. If you try to persuade them a little more, they might think you are jealous and want to interfere."
"Yeah, what you said reminded me." Luo Shi thought about it, it was really like this, and said with a happy face: "If it happens, we are also happy for them. If it doesn't happen, it has nothing to do with us.
Don’t talk too much.”
Tian Minyan nodded, not everyone will take your sincerity seriously, and you will be wrong if you say too much, let alone when you meet someone like Chen?
