Concubine's plan

If a woman's life's happiness was ruined because of a fight between two families, Xun Yingju still couldn't bear it.

Feeling the kindness of her master, Aunt Jiang sighed helplessly. She was just a slave. It was a good thing for the slave to be kind-hearted, but it was not a good thing to be kind to the enemy, but she couldn't help it. Make up your mind for the master and do things beyond your reach.

After all, Xun Yingju came from a later generation. Although she didn't know how serious the struggle between the powerful people of the Zhou Dynasty was, and she was worried, she also knew that if she couldn't defeat the enemy with one move, she would definitely be the one to suffer in the end, so she bit her He gritted his teeth and said,"Just do what Auntie said."

"The slave girl will make arrangements now."After receiving the affirmative answer, Aunt Jiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. It's a good thing for a girl to be kind-hearted, but she was very happy to be able to make a decision so quickly when it was a matter of life and death.

Watching Aunt Jiang leave, Xun Yingju felt sad. Even if she puts down a stone, she still has a lot of things to be busy with. It is the slack season in Zhuangzi now. Normally,There is no farm work to be done, but it is different on her three farms. A large area must be opened for planting greenhouses.

Moreover, news has come from the Bai family of Anqing Prefecture that they have sent people out to the capital. They think they will reach the capital soon. That way she would have more helpers, and she would be able to let him take care of Zhuangzi's affairs.

However, the Bai family was about to arrive in the capital, and the house in Zhuangzi had not yet been settled. They could not let the uncle and his family live in a shabby house, so they immediately found Yu Sheng and said,"Take some tidying up, bring a few boys, let's go Find a team of masons. The house on Zhuangzi must be built as soon as possible."

"Girl, are you in a hurry to build a house?"Yu Sheng was very puzzled. The relaxed atmosphere two days ago had become tense so quickly. She couldn't accept it and asked directly.

In this regard, Xun Yingju expressed her helplessness. These things are normal in Anqing Mansion. Okay, but she didn't need to explain too much to a little girl, she just smiled and said:"Go and get ready, if Aunt Gui finds out about these many words, I'm afraid she will punish you again."

Hearing the girl's words, the little girl hurriedly went to get people ready. When she was in Anqing Mansion, Aunt Gui would let the little girls under her act more recklessly. After arriving in the capital, Aunt Gui's rules became more and more strict, and she would not pay attention to them. Then she would be spanked, and even a big girl like her had been spanked once.

Thinking of such a punishment, it not only hurt her body, but more importantly, it was embarrassing. Being spanked in front of so many little girls, she would never What kind of prestige does the identity of the eldest girl have? Yusheng was frightened for a while, and hurriedly helped Xun Yingju prepare. He also specially asked the servant to pick up a servant who was familiar with the capital, so that he could take the girl to provoke him directly.

Soon Xun Yingju Yun Duan came over to help her comb her hair and choose clothes to wear when going out. A lot of time passed in one operation, and the things arranged by Yu Sheng were also completed. The group of people left the house to do things. On the way, Xun Yingju inquired about the capital in detail. As a familiar boy, there are many groups of masons in the capital. Generally, big families have their own groups of masons that they are used to. Many Jiva generals only work for certain big families. To be honest, it is hard to do these things. Once everything is done, their jobs will be stable for the rest of their lives.

Ordinary families are also looking for ordinary masonry teams. Many of these people work in some big masonry teams at the beginning. After working for a few years, their skills have matured. Then they would go out to work alone, and could only do odd jobs at first. Over time, a capable master mason can also bring out a team of his own.

Xun Yingju did not doubt this. Although masonry is a craft, it is not special. For profound craft work, as long as you work conscientiously and down-to-earth for a few years, you will be able to figure out the key techniques. It is much better to work alone than to work for others. As long as you are willing to do it, your income will be much better than working as a worker.

"Great, so which masonry team are we going to now?"Xun Yingju asked calmly. After chatting slowly, Xun Yingju found out that this boy's name was Lu Jie. She felt that this man was very smart. He must know a lot about the capital. It would not be a big problem to ask such a person, so he asked more questions. How detailed

"Girl, what we are looking for is a master who has been working for more than 20 years. He has several masters and apprentices under him. His surname is Chen. Although he does not work for aristocratic families, he is often hired by many wealthy families. They do things, and their craftsmanship is beyond question."The boy praised Master Chen fiercely.

After listening to the boy's words, Xun Yingju felt that there was some relationship between the two people. She thought about it and asked,"Look at what you think about Master Chen. We know each other so well, what is the relationship between you?"

After hearing Xun Yingju's words, the boy felt a little uneasy. He didn't understand what his master was thinking, but he didn't dare to hide it, so he could only say with some embarrassment:"Master Chen is my uncle. He helped a lot when my family had an accident a few years ago. If It's not that things at home are too big, I won't sell myself to be a servant if my uncle is here."

It seems that he is a person who values ​​friendship and friendship. Master Chen is the same, and so is this boy. There are not many people who are affectionate and righteous nowadays. When you meet them, you should cherish them. Putting away her inner thoughts, Xun Yingju said with deep meaning:"I can understand you. I want to attract some business to my relatives, but I also want to see Master Chen’s skills. If his skills are not good, I won’t use them in the future."

"That's natural, little ones don't understand the rules."The young man immediately patted his chest and expressed his position, saying that no matter what the outcome was in the future, he would never blame his master. The conversation between the two was completely heard by Yu Sheng, who was sitting next to her. She thought that the young man just wanted to get closer to the water first, so she was very unhappy. Convinced, he asked:"Girl, you know that this kid wants to make profits for your family, why do you still want to go on this trip? If they are really plotting against us, wouldn't we suffer a lot?""

"It is good to have such courage to promote talents without avoiding relatives. If Master Chen is really capable and is not an outsider, he will not be disadvantaged by his work and can make our own people live a better life. Wouldn't we also do it? A good thing? Xun Yingju smiled and did not take Yusheng's words to heart.

The group soon arrived at the gate of a large courtyard in Nancheng District. There were several five or six-year-old children chasing and playing at the gate. They looked very relaxed and comfortable.

The carriage After stopping at the door, a seven or eight-year-old boy ran over and asked crisply:"Who are you? What are you doing at our house?

Seeing this, the boy hurriedly ran over and asked,"Is Master Chen here?""

"Yes, what do you want from him?"The little boy asked like a little adult.
