Chapter 723
I heard about it now, and reminded me of the past, so I ordered to give Li Fu the large mansion located in Jingjing Hutong in the east of the city, with front and rear gardens, deep into five entrances, and complete with two courtyards and side courtyards. .
The reward of the heavenly family is naturally bright inside and out. Giving a mansion is not just giving an empty mansion, it is basically complete with furniture, and you can move in immediately.
Even the servants, part of which is provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
When the news came, the whole house was full of joy.
This is a good thing, and it is necessary to give a reward. Lian Fangzhou ordered Chun Xing and Bi Tao to prepare a big red envelope for everyone to share, and everyone became more and more beaming.
"It's good now, I'll save you buying a house!" Lian Fangzhou smiled at Li Fu.
Li Fu smiled and said, "What I'm saying is, it saves us a lot of trouble!"
He picked a day and took Lian Fangzhou to the new house to take a look.
The more he looked, the more Lian Fangzhou liked it.
Before the reward, the mansion had obviously been carefully renovated and cleaned. It was clean and tidy everywhere, with lush flowers and trees, and the courtyards were extremely wide. Now let alone their family, even a few more families could live there. .
Two days ago, a housekeeper surnamed Qian had been hired, and he had signed a ten-year life contract. After picking up a number of servants from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, many things were left to the housekeeper Qian to arrange.
Thinking that there will be a lot of manpower in the future, Lian Fangzhou added four twelve- or thirteen-year-old girls, Lianzi, Haitang, Qinghe, and Maixiang. The rest are cleaning or doing rough work, and there are also additions.
Busy here, preparing for the relocation to the new house, the second wife, who has been missing for a long time, came to the door again with her two daughters-in-law, Mrs. Zou and Mrs. Qi.
Lian Fangzhou sneered slightly after hearing Bitao's report.
What are they doing, not to mention her, but also Bitao and others, why don't they know it by heart?
"The slaves must be here for the new mansion. Our new mansion is much stronger than theirs. Who knows what good ideas they have! Maybe they want to move in too!" Bitao He pouted angrily.
Lian Fangzhou's heart moved: It's hard to say it's impossible!
Then he smiled and said, "The two families have separated. If they want to live as long-term guests, I won't feel bad for those houses!"
Saying that, he ordered them to come in quickly.
The second lady, Mrs. Zou and Mrs. Qi came in with their maids, and they laughed and said, "Congratulations! Congratulations!" They complimented each other with nice words, as if nothing had ever happened between the two sides. , has always been close.
Reaching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Lian Fangzhou naturally responded politely with a smile, and then smiled and ordered Hongyu: "Go and invite our eldest lady to come, and say it's the second aunt, the second sister-in-law, and the fourth younger brother and sister!"
Hearing that Lian Fangzhou wanted to invite the Zhou family, the three of them looked a little embarrassed.
After all, in the past few years, especially the last two years, they can remember clearly how they treated Zhou.
Zou smiled reluctantly and said, "We just come here to sit and sit, if the sister-in-law is not free, then forget it! There is no need to trouble the sister-in-law so much!"
"How can this be called trouble?" Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "Isn't my sister-in-law a relative? Shouldn't you ask her to come and sit down when you come? Besides,"
"Fangzhou is right! It's a family after all, and it's blood and blood. Please invite her to come! Maybe I haven't seen her for a long time, I miss her!" The second lady said with a smile.
Anyway, Zhou's temperament is like a dough, so what if she comes? She still dares to say what she is not, and dare to settle old accounts with herself!
At a critical moment, maybe she can still speak a few words!
The corner of Lian Fangzhou's mouth twitched secretly, this second aunt has an unusually thick skin!
"That's right, it's a family after all!" Lian Fangzhou smiled, thought about it, and smiled again: "However, Second Aunt's memory doesn't seem to be very good! We didn't meet until August 15th. Well, what does the second aunt say that you haven't seen my sister-in-law for a long time?"
As soon as Lian Fangzhou's words came out, the muscles at the corners of the mouths of the second wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law twitched fiercely, and they looked at each other, their faces extremely ugly.
A village woman is a village woman, and she doesn't understand a little etiquette! She doesn't know it's a taboo to speak. It's inconvenient to mention anything, but she prefers to mention it.
The second lady had to shyly smiled and said vaguely: "Haha, no, the second aunt is old, haha, I can't compare to you!"
Lian Fangzhou also laughed and said, "By the way, why didn't I see Wanrou today? I wonder if she still has dogs?"
The corners of the mouths of the second wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law twitched fiercely again, this village woman!
The second lady's face sank, and she hummed softly without answering.
No matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Lian Fangzhou didn't want to make her feel better at all.
"Third siblings!" Mrs. Zou hurriedly complimented the smile and said, "Why do you talk about this! Today we are here to congratulate you!"
"Yes, yes," Qi Shi was also busy, changing the subject and smiling: "The third brother is really good, the holy family is grand! The mansion rewarded by the emperor must be very spacious and lavish? Have you seen it? how is everything?"
How could Lian Fangzhou allow Qi to change the subject so easily?
The last time Li Wanrou was so rude and hadn't apologized to them yet, she kept this matter in her heart. At the time of the festival, she was too lazy to entangle with them.
Now that they came to the door by themselves, wouldn't she be stupid if she didn't mention it?
Lian Fangzhou then said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law said the same thing, today you are here to congratulate me, let's not mention those people and things that spoil the fun! The emperor's reward is naturally excellent, the yard is extremely wide, I I'm thinking of raising a few big dogs to watch the house, so as not to have idle people running around and making noise in the future! Sister Wanrou doesn't know if she still has dogs? She's very capable of training dogs. ,Ha ha!"
"What the hell do you mean!" The second lady couldn't help but scolded her furiously.
Her daughter is such a noble and precious daughter. This village woman has been belittling and slandering her again and again. If she can tolerate it, it is not her.
Lian Fangzhou was very innocent. He asked Zou and Qi in a puzzled way, "Are Second Aunt angry? What is she angry about? Could it be that I have said something wrong?"
Mrs Zou and Mrs Qi froze in their chests and stared at each other in shock.
What is the disaster of the pool fish? This is called the disaster of the pool fish!
What's the matter with the two of them? How could this fire burn on them!
Lian Fangzhou's doubtful eyes seemed to be glued to them, just waiting for them to clear their doubts, even if they wanted to pretend they didn't hear anything!
But how to answer this?
