Chapter 958: The New Year is approaching, the love of the women
In Chengdu Fuzhong, after Shen Tang left, Tian Guanhua and others continued to carry out disaster relief work in accordance with Shen Tang's orders. Fortunately, the previous disasters in the counties were not severe, and most of the affected people were resettled. Later, Shen Tang Tang also dispatched some grain and grass to fill the warehouses, so that the counties under the jurisdiction of Chengdu Prefecture finally stabilized.
The New Year is coming soon, and the entire Chengdu Prefecture has become lively. The streets and alleys are full of pedestrians! Colorful sheds have also been set up on the markets. In addition to the bustling restaurants, tea shops, and brothels on weekdays, , ventriloquism, sumo wrestling, Cuju, business fans, etc. that the people are more interested in attract more people to watch.
The so-called business fans are actually similar to Guan Pu! Business is for discussion, and fans are for guessing! After both parties have agreed, they can proceed! This kind of thing does not need to cost a lot of money, even if it is some things commonly used by farmers It can also be used for practice, which will naturally attract people’s liking!
Folk artists set up tables and chairs in suitable venues one by one. Whether they are talking or performing a drama, they are enough to attract a full house!
Compared to the bustling market, the backyard of the government office seems a bit deserted!
The warm winter sun shone down and filled the yard! On a few bamboo chairs, Liu Xiangling and the other girls were sitting next to each other, somewhat bored, looking very uninspired!
Several little girls gathered together, holding dried fruits, honey money and the like in their hands, and they didn't know what they were talking about privately!
"Hey, I don't know if my husband can come back before the end of the year!"
Shao Muyu said to himself!
As soon as he finished speaking, two identical sighs came from the left and right!
The faces of Liu Xiangling and Wanyan Yue were also filled with longing and a hint of sadness! For them, there is a home where Shen Tang is. Without Shen Tang, the whole family is missing!
"Miss, the Chinese New Year is here, don't we need to prepare anything in advance?"
Zhu'er on the side asked.
Liu Xiangling shook her head boredly, "Forget it, it's just the Chinese New Year, what year is different?
Mu Yu, just ask the shopkeeper of the Shao family to help you prepare it, and just send it over directly!"
Shao Muyu nodded, "Don't worry, sister..."
"Tap, step, step..."
Slow footsteps sounded, and the girls couldn't help but look in the direction of the door. This was the back house. Apart from the girls and maids, only the old housekeeper would occasionally come over to report something.
Sure enough, not long after, a maid came into the courtyard and said, "Madams, Butler Zhang has something to report to the ladies!"
"Let Mr. Zhang come in!"
The girls sat up straight, and the little girls Lian'er, Zhu'er and others also stood respectfully behind them. Not long after, the old housekeeper Zhang Yifu stepped in!
"I've met three ladies! I have a letter to send back!"
"ah?"
"Where?"
"What?"
The three girls exclaimed, and the eyes of the little girls also lit up!
The old housekeeper handed a letter to the maid beside him, and the maid stepped forward and handed it to Liu Xiangling!
In an instant, all the girls gathered in front of Liu Xiangling and looked eagerly at the letter! The old housekeeper smiled softly and retreated directly from the courtyard.
It was not a long letter, and the girls read it for half an hour before finishing it!
"My husband said that he has arrived at Tongchuan Mansion and will be home in four or five days!"
Liu Xiangling’s eyes were filled with surprise!
"It's only about three hundred miles back from Tongchuan Mansion! My husband and the others are fast horses, so four or five days are enough!"
Shao Muyu also nodded vigorously.
"This time, our sister is back again!"
Wanyan Yue said teasingly, "A hero saves a beauty, but I don't know if our sister has pledged herself to her!"
Wanyan Yue pursed her lips and snickered as she thought of something funny.
"alright!"
Liu Xiangling waved her hand, "Sisters, my husband will be back in a few days! When my husband comes back, it will be the 29th or 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, so naturally there will be no time to make arrangements.
So, let’s take care of everything that needs to be done, and we can’t wait for my husband to come back and the house is deserted.”
"Yue'er, you come with me and take the maid at home to clean up the inside and outside! Lian'er, don't snicker. The west wing has been assigned to you. You didn't live there before, but now you are on your own
Bring a few girls to clean up! Otherwise, when your master comes back, he won’t have room to pamper you! Everything that needs to be added and purchased must be ready as soon as possible.”
"Wu Yu, take a look at what else you need to buy at home, make a list and let Butler Zhang do it! Buy as much as you need, including some things you need for welcome and delivery. You also need to buy them back.
Our master is now the chief official of a palace, so there will inevitably be other people coming and going.
It doesn’t need to be too expensive, but it has to be suitable...forget it, you can make a list first, and then we sisters will go over the details together!"
"Zhu'er, your master has said that he wants to eat bergamot lamb chops and sand yolk egg crisps. Since you want to please your master, this matter will be left to you! Choose the best lamb chops and buy them.
Marinate it first when you come back! By the way, I like Yue Jiang’s special music, don’t forget Mu Yu!”
"Xiao Yun'er, where are you going? Lian'er and Zhu'er have already achieved what they wanted, and you are the only one left! If you are not in a hurry, you won't be able to get started after the New Year.
Son.
Our master is traveling all the time for us. He has been traveling all the way, not eating well, and not getting enough sleep! Check if you still have the incense from before, and the pods for bathing. When the master comes back, it's up to you to take the first step.
Waiting for our master to wash up, we sisters are too tired to help outside, so when we get home, we will naturally let our master take it easy!"
"The opportunity has been given to you. If you can't seize it, don't blame me or your lady..."
A simple letter suddenly changed the atmosphere in the whole family! Everyone was beaming with joy, and the previous laziness and dejection had long since disappeared! Shen Tang was their expectation and their energy.
Now that Shen Tang is coming back, everyone's heart is full of joy and expectation!
"Okay, sisters, let's get moving! The four or five days are already very tight. We have to get the house in order before the master comes back!"
As Liu Xiangling finished speaking, all the girls left with joy.
Zhu'er walked forward slowly and fell behind Liu Xiangling. She held the corners of her clothes with her small hands. After hesitating for a long time, she whispered, "Miss, please show Zhu'er the letter from the master. Just now Lian'er squeezed her."
I didn’t even see it clearly! Did the master mention me in the letter..."
Looking at Xiao Nizi behind him, Liu Xiangling reached out and knocked on his forehead, "I want to hear your master's love words. When he comes back, let him tell you all night long so that you can hear enough..."
