Chapter 064 Farewell

The old man wrote to urge him again and again. As a son and daughter-in-law, if he refuses to go north against the old man's will, he will be a little unfilial.

Besides, the old man didn't hurt them.

You can go north. What about the house on the side of Yanling Mansion?

How can there be hundreds of servants and unregulated people in the inner and outer courtyards of the whole family?

If Gu Yanzhen's family moved back to the capital, these servants can sell it or be dismissed to the village, but they are not upset.

But they just go to visit their relatives and will come back in half a year at most.

Or sell it, or send it. When you come back, where can you buy these used ones?

Song Pan'er and Gu Yanzhen mean the same, and none of the servants in the family want to break up.

"Let Song's mother and Begonia take care of..." Gu Yanzhen advised Song Pan'er, "Don't they always assist you?"

He only studied. The affairs of the inner and outer courtyard, the affairs of the field, and the affairs in the shop have nothing to do with him. Naturally, he does not know the difficulties in the middle.

Song Pan'er is very clear.

She shook her head: "Look at Song's mother and Begonia. That's my support behind her back. I sit on the flag, and the two of them do things, and there is always some gossip. If I'm not at home, they are not masters. How can those tricky people be in charge of them?

You need to have a master.

Gu Yanzhen thought of Hong Lian.

"It's better to take Aunt Hong back and take care of the family affairs for the time being..." Gu Yanzhen blurted out.

After saying that, he regretted a little, and his eyes were a little careful.

Song Paner's heart was cold at first, but her face was quiet. She rarely calmed down and explained to Gu Yanzhen, "She is a fool. What can she do? She is lucky if she doesn't cause trouble. Do you still count on her? You forgot Brother..."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm also confused. I shouldn't mention this." Gu Yanzhen remembered Gu Yanzhi's illness and hurriedly said.

Hong Lian denied it.

Song Pan'er's brothers and sisters-in-law are not bad, but if she gives her family to others, Song Pan will feel uncomfortable.

Counting around, there is no one to trust.

"As soon as I come back from the capital, I will marry my brother first, marry a daughter-in-law early, and there will be no one available at home." Song Pan'er sighed.

Gu Yanzhen said yes with a smile, but he thought to himself, Brother Yan was not born in your stomach. Do you feel at ease with his daughter-in-law?

The couple discussed it for a long time, but they still couldn't figure it out.

It's almost evening, Gu Jin's sister and brother came to comfort her.

Song Pan'er told them the decision to go to Beijing.

Then he said to Gu Jinzhi, "My mother's yard, your two brothers' yard, and your father's outer study are all controlled by my mother. I'm afraid I'm too busy. I'll leave everything in your own yard to you. It's up to you to take who to go and who stays to see the door. Take what you should receive, take what you should bring, and give me an account book.

Gu Jinzhi said good.

This decision is a little sudden.

She answered first, and then asked, "Why don't we wait until the beginning of next spring and the glacier freezes before going north?" This cold winter is inconvenient on the road, and it will be the end of the year.

"Just because of your third brother's happy day, your grandfather specially wrote to ask us to go back." Song Paner said, "I turned over the almanac and should go out on the 20th. If the road is fast, we can rush to the capital on New Year's Eve."

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said nothing more.

She knew that her mother was optimistic.

If they can get to the capital at the end of the first month, they have to see the weather along the way. They can't do it before New Year's Eve.

The more you go north, the more wind and snow will be in the twelfth lunar month. Those who report to Beijing, those who send New Year's goods to their masters in the south, and those who are officials from other places rush back for the Spring Festival. I'm afraid that the carriages, horses and boats will be very crowded, and

It is impossible to arrive smoothly before New Year's Eve.

After everyone broke up after dinner, Song Pan'er left Gu Jinzhi to speak again.

"...Your grandfather sent letters quickly, two letters in a row, urging us to go to Beijing." She showed the letter to Gu Jinzhi, "Today is already fifteen or twenty, and the time is in a hurry.

You can put your homework off tomorrow. Everything in the yard should be arranged properly, but you can't put it off. Eighteenth and nineteenth, we have to make some separates with our relatives and neighbors, so that others don't know why and guess randomly.

Song Pan'er doesn't want to be told by outsiders.

Gu Jinzhi's eyes fell on his grandfather's letter and did not move away for a long time.

The content of the two short letters was almost the same, but she read them for a long time.

She studied with her grandfather for two years and knew his grandfather better than anyone else in the family.

She is even more familiar with her grandfather's handwriting.

Judging from his grandfather's handwriting, when he wrote, he was very uneasy, even a little impatient, and the details of the words were revealed.

Gu Jinzhi thought of his grandfather rushing to Beijing again.

There is indeed a big deal in Jingli.

In a moment, Gu Jinzhi turned around and said to his mother with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Song Pan'er gently patted her hand.

To go to Beijing, the whole family goes there, and the time is short. Song Paner has to set aside two days to visit relatives and friends and send New Year's gifts in advance.

The whole family is so busy.

There is no suspense in Gu Jinzhi's yard.

Nishang's face is broken and she is still cultivating. It is impossible for her to follow Gu Jinzhi. Even if she didn't look bad, Gu Jinzhi was not ready to take her. Nishang has a fierce personality and can control the people in the yard. When Gu Jin's one of them goes, she needs more like Nishang in the yard.

I wish my mother is old, has seen a lot of worlds, and can take care of Gu Jinzhi on the way. She will definitely go with Gu Jinzhi.

I also need to bring two maids.

Zhilei, Youhe and Weiyu are a little difficult to choose.

"Girl, I'll stay with Nishang." Zhilei took the initiative to say.

She has a deep relationship with Nishang.

Gu Jinzhi agreed.

The rest, except for a few books, what to bring and what to put away will be treated by Zhu's mother, and Gu Jinzhi doesn't care.

On the mother's side, because of Song's mother and Haitang, they do things vigorously, which is faster than Gu Jinzhi.

Regarding how to take care of the courtyard, Song Paner also thought of a way.

The accounts in Zhuangzi and the shop are managed by their own management in advance, and the accounts will not be counted before the New Year. Let's wait until Song Pan'er comes back.

The family affairs are also separated.

Each yard has a small kitchen, which is divided into firewood, rice, oil and salt. Each room eats and lives separately, which is not the same. There is a stoman in every yard, and everything is subject to the instructions of the stoman of each yard.

In addition, please ask the eldest aunt, Mrs. Song, and the chief treakin-chief, Sun Yutang, and take charge of the affairs of the government.

Such an arrangement is also Song Pan'er's good intentions.

Gu Jinzhi thought of the contract responsibility system of later generations...

Divide the things in the house into pieces, specific to each yard. It's really easier to take care of only a few people in his own yard.

Her mother has excellent ability in managing personnel.

After dealing with the family affairs quickly and effectively, Song Paner took the whole family and went to the Song family for the next New Year's gift.

Mrs. Song set up a banquet for them to practice.

When Song Yanzhao, the second cousin, heard that Gu Jinzhi was leaving, he quietly pulled her sleeve and asked her to follow him to the yard to talk.

Gu Jinzhi got up and went out with him.

Mrs. Song saw it in her eyes, just as if she didn't know.

Everyone pretended not to see it.

Song Yanzhao sent a monkey carved from sandalwood to Gu Jinzhi: "... During the Lantern Festival, let's joke, you said you like wood carving. I think you are born in the year of the monkey, and I want to learn wood carving to make a birthday gift for you. How do you know? This thing is very difficult to learn, and your teacher's homework is also tight. It took a year to do such a thing..."

In fact, he has done a lot.

He is very talented in learning.

In April, I made one and was ready to give it to Gu Jinzhi.

It's just a word to the mouth, but I don't think it's perfect enough. It needs to be carved again.

Carved, carved...

I have to do it again.

After all, this is the first gift he gave to Gu Jinzhi.

If she accept it, then accept his heart, right?

So he stopped talking a few days ago and always wanted to send something to Gu Jinzhi, and then he didn't say anything, which made everyone see it.

Song Yanzhao was very nervous at this moment and handed the wood carving to Gu Jinzhi.

The sun in the winter moon is sparse, and the light coldness can be seen flowing from his fingers.

He didn't realize it, but his fingers were still shaking. I don't know if he was nervous or frozen...

Gu Jinzhi sneered, wrapped his palm, wrapped the wood carving in his own palm, and then pushed his hand back.

"You don't know, I can't smell sandalwood?" She lied and said, "I'm indeed a monkey, but I can't see what the monkey looks like!" Your heart has arrived. I am very grateful. Thank you, second cousin.

Then he stepped back two steps, blessed his body, and saluted him.

"It's too cold outside. I just ate hot rice and hot dishes. It's not good to freeze. I'll go back first." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, and turned around first.

It was crisp and neat, and there was no hesitation for Song Yanzhao's sadness.

Song Yanzhao was stunned and didn't move his feet for a long time.

The lifelike monkey carved from the sandalwood in his hand stung the palm of his hand.

He can understand Gu Jinzhi's meaning.

Gu Jinzhi rejected him.

His eyes are a little astringent.

Finally, the banquet broke up, and Gu Jinzhi followed his parents home. His performance was the same as usual, and there was nothing different.

Song Yanzhao did not come back.

Song Paner looked at it and didn't say a word, for fear that Gu Jinzhi would not understand this, but he would be seduced by himself.

Mrs. Song's side is a little distressed.

"Sister Jin's daughter-in-law is not exquisite, but she is not stupid. I was taciturn and knew in my heart that it was a good one. Mrs. Song muttered to her mother-in-law beside her, "I'm just looking forward to it. This aunt is very important to do everything. I can't stand her in-laws with her."

"My cousin doesn't mean that." Mother Sun smiled and said, "My cousin probably knows that the second young master is going to take the next exam next year, but she didn't delay him..."

Although she didn't like this marriage, her son was rejected, and Mrs. Song was not happy.

Sun's mother's words made her even more uncomfortable.

She served tea in silence.

Sun's mother also regretted that she had said something wrong and stood aside in embarrassment.

Song Pan'er didn't know about this.

She has been excluded from her son-in-law's choice by the children of the Song family.

On the 19th day of winter, the day before the trip, Song Paner took Gu Jinzhi to visit Princess Minghui.

When Princess Minghui heard that they were going to Beijing, she smiled and said, "What a coincidence? Mr. Chen is also going, and he is also scheduled to leave in the past few days. You can get together and make a company on the way. RS
