Chapter 182

(The first update will be given in the morning, and all 3,600 will be added! Thank you brothers for your rewards and monthly tickets, please subscribe to the monthly tickets!)

The next morning, Zhang Chao was refreshed, Thirteen Niang's face was rosy, while Hong Shi kept sneezing, and she caught a cold. She stood outside the tent for more than an hour last night. Zhang Chao and Thirteen Niang were warm for a long time before they remembered that Red Shi was still outside.

Zhang Chao felt very sorry, so he personally made two pieces of white and black for the Red Line in the morning, told her how to use it, and poured her boiling water. This made Qiuyue and Dongqing very jealous. Last night, Zhang Chao spent the night in Qinglu in the yard with Shisanniang and Hongxian, and the two old people could only stay on their kang.

The two girls were worried all night, fearing that Zhang Sanlang would forget the old one if he had a new partner in the future. The two dared not criticize Thirteen Niang, but pointed their fingers at the Red Line, believing that the Red Line was their strong rival. Compared to themselves, Red Line is Thirteen Niang's close maid. She has studied chess, piano, calligraphy and painting with Thirteen Niang since she was a child, and she is also proficient in everything.

Especially the little hooves are like vixen. Although they are obviously a maid, they are wearing their heads and faces, they are like daughters of famous families. The momentum is taller than Qiu Yue and Dongqing, and I don’t know where they go. Although the two maids used to be maids at the homes of nobles in the capital, the maids are divided into different levels.

The Red Line is the personal maid of the legitimate daughter, who is born with a tall maid. And the two sisters are just ordinary maids, and the maids are considered low among them.

What made the two girls the most jealous was when Thirteen Niang and Sanlang had a plea yesterday, and the fox girl, Hongxian, also joined in the plea. They knew very well what this meant, which meant that the red line would be Zhang Sanlang's room in the future. Once they entered the Zhang family, the fox girl was already half of their female protagonist.

I'm so angry when I think about it.

Zhang Chao didn't expect that the two girls would have so many ideas.

Today he just felt that the sky was blue, the air was fresh, and everything was beautiful.

After getting up early, after washing up, changing into new clothes, Zhang Chao came to the main hall. Old Mrs. Zhang and Qi Niang were already waiting there, and they were smiling, and there were two young ladies from the Zhang family, Lian Niang and Lan Niang.

The housekeeper's wife, Zhou, prepared tea, and Zhang Chao and Shisanniang stepped forward to serve tea.

"Hong Line, you come here to offer tea to your father and mother."

Last night, Thirteen Niang also told Zhang Chao that she and Hongshi were like sisters, and from then on, they would let Hongshi be the housekeeper in the house and act as Zhang Chao's roommate. Seeing that she was telling her truthfully, Zhang Chao was not pretentious.

Even ordinary country landlords, even if they are not qualified to take concubines, there will be more than one woman. In addition to their wives, there will be girls with ties, and some girls will be elevated. Even if they cannot even get the identity of a concubine, this situation is very common.

Moreover, it is usually the wife who takes the initiative to organize these things.

Men can enjoy it with peace of mind. Even the wise queen Changsun Wuji often helped Li Shimin to organize these things in history.

The girl Hongxian is quite beautiful, graceful and smart. She also has a good relationship with Thirteen Niang and is deeply trusted by her. Thirteen Niang wants to raise her close maid and let her be the housekeeper. Of course, Zhang Chao cannot have any objections, nor will he have any objections.

I asked her to toast a cup of tea this morning, and it was also officially giving her the title of a living room.

From now on, she will be half of the master in this family.

Mr. Zhang was not surprised. When he was having a gift yesterday, the maid also bowed, which explained what the bride meant. After taking the tea and taking a sip, the father smiled and said a few words to Hongshi for her to serve Zhang Chao and his wife in the future, and then gave Hongshi a bead hairpin. Qi Niang also gave a gift and a pair of jade bracelets.

Qiuyue and Dongqing stood aside, envious.

"Thirteen Niang, I'll introduce our family to you."

Zhang Chao introduced the housekeeper, veterinarian family, and the accountant Ma Zhou to Thiran one by one.

Cui Yingying was very generous. She sat there and said a few words to everyone who came up. After that, she asked the Red Line to give her a reward. The housekeeper, Lao Niu, the accountant, each gave her two taels of silver. The housekeeper and Lao Niu's wife each gave her two pieces of flower cloth. Shuanzi, Da Niu and Er Niu three, each gave her five hundred coins and a set of new clothes. Qiuyue, Dong Qing, Niu Xiaomei, each gave her a flower cloth and gave her a silver jewelry.

It can be seen that Cui Yingying was prepared for a long time, and all kinds of rewards were more suitable, no more, just right.

The old Niu and the butlers did not expect that the bride was so generous, and they all quickly thanked them.

Cui Yingying also prepared gifts for the two sisters Lianniang and Lanniang. Each of them had a very delicate head and face, which was probably worth tens of thousands of yuan.

The two girls took such a beautiful gift and fell in love with their new sister-in-law and said a lot of sweet words.

"Dad, mom, I have also prepared some gifts for our neighbors in the village and our tenants."

The gift Cui Yingying prepared for the villagers was just some food pastries, which were not worth much, but it looked pretty good and was considered a pleasure.

This reminded Zhang Chao. I remember that when he was a child at his grandmother's house in the countryside, someone in the village got married. On the day of the mat, he had to give each family two bowls of noodles. He also gave each family a gift of biscuits and candy before and after marriage. Usually there were eleven or two, each with one or two, and there were not many things, but it was also considered a sharing of joy.

On the day of the wedding, I even had to invite an open-air movie to play movies, which was so lively. But later, such customs gradually disappeared, and it would be good to be given a wedding candy.

"Yes, give some gifts to the neighbors and tenants." The father nodded with a smile. As for Qi Niang, she listened to her father completely.

"Bride, you have entered the Zhang family now. Our family will be left to you to take care of in the future. You will be more tired." Dad said with a smile.

"Dad, with my mother here, I will preside over the family. My mother will naturally preside over the family in the future, so I will help you with your hands." Thirteen Niang said very nicely.

Qi Niang was very happy to hear this, but she also knew that the Zhang family is now a big family, and the bride is even more of a famous lady. She brought so many dowry, so naturally the bride would be managed by this family.

This mother-in-law is kind, the bride is polite, and the atmosphere is very good. Anyway, with Zhang Yingying insisting in the end, Qi Niang will be the inner courtyard in the future, but if the bride helps, Zhang Yingying will definitely be the housekeeper.

Zhang Yingying also asked the six families who came with the dowry to come to see him.

The six families were all dowry brought by Zheng Niangzi from Xingyang Zheng's family to Cui's family, but now they were brought to the Zhang family by Cui Yingying. The older families are all fifty or sixty years old, and they are basically three generations or even four generations together.

The six families had a population of about 30, which increased the population of the Zhang family a lot.

There were so many people at home, so in the end, they arranged a few young girls and boys at home, arranged two maids for father and grandma Qi, and then arranged two maids for Lan Nianglian. The last few young men were responsible for following the father and Zhang Chao to do errands.

Others, even older people come to the Zhang family to take care of their elderly care. They will temporarily arrange for them to live in the apprentice dormitory behind them, and then set up a cave next to the Zhang family and arrange for these families to live in.

Others can be arranged to do business in the Zhang family’s workshop, to do business in the outside farm, or to shops, and their women can help the kitchen clean and wash clothes at home.

Anyway, it can be arranged, but in this way, the Zhang family is really like a wealthy family, with a group of servants. Apart from the men sent out, there are more than 20 servants and maids in the family.

Finally, I became a landlord who was dressed and reached out, and opened my mouth to eat, and went out to live with the slaves.

Go back to your house.

"Sanlang, let's put another bed in this room, and let's sleep in this room." Cui Yingying looked at the bedroom and then said.

Zhang Chao sat on the kang, a little distracted.

"Or it would be better to let the Hongshi live in the next house. Anyway, the house is only two girls Qiuyue and Dongqing, and the kang is as big as a kang. There is a bed in this house, and there is no kang, so it is still very cold at night."

In fact, Zhang Chao is not suitable for living in the house with another person. When you want to be intimate at night, wouldn’t it be a live broadcast? There is no private space left.

"Sanlang, there is no shortage of people in the house. If you get up at night or something, there will always be someone who can make it easier." Cui Yingying said.

Zhang Chao pointed to the rope on the wall beside the kang.

"You pull the rope down."

Cui Yingying pulled it a few times, and then Qiuyue immediately appeared at the door.

"What order does Thirteen have?"

Cui Yingying looked at Qiuyue in surprise, "You have been standing outside the door?"

"Reply to Thirteen Niang's words, the rope is connected to a bell in my room. Once you pull the rope here, I can hear it."

"And it's so magical."

When Cui Yingying and Hong Shi followed Zhang Chao to Qiuyue's house, they asked Qiuyue to pull the rope in the master bedroom. Sure enough, the bells rang out in the room.

"This mechanism is also clever."

"I invented it." Zhang Chao said proudly.

"Husband is so amazing."

When he returned to the bedroom, Cui Yingying still wanted to let Hongshi sleep in the master bedroom.

"Sanlang, I'm not afraid of the cold. Just ask someone to have a bed in this room. The beds are ready-made, and there are Thirteen Niang's dowry furniture." When Hong Shi said this, he sucked his nose and was not convinced at all. "I have lived with Thirteen Niang since I was a child. It has been more than ten years since I was a child, and Thirteen Niang can't live without me."

Zhang Chao was speechless.

But judging from the two of them insisted, they could only agree first.

"Okay, then let's put a bed in this room. Remember to make a few more quilts and two more beds on the mat. There is no floor heating in the room, and the kang will not be cold at night."

"Xie Sanlang." Hongxian ran out happily and asked someone to move the bed.

"Actually, if Sanlang is so worried that Hongshi will catch a cold, he will just let Hongshi sleep on the kang with us at night."

"What? Let Hong Shi sleep on the kang with us"

Zhang Chao looked at Cui Yingying, not knowing what to say.
