"Little Miss, please." After Zhou Gui finished answering, Xiao Lan motioned for Princess Yongmu to enter the courtyard.
Eight maids surrounded her and entered together. Ten guards stood outside, and the other ten went in to check the layout so that they could move things later.
The courtyard with three sections was a corridor style. The first section was the front courtyard, the second was the main hall, and the last section was the sleeping area.
The main hall had a study and bedrooms on the left and right.
The corridor connected to the rooms on the left and right. There was a big courtyard in front of the main hall and behind the front courtyard.
The courtyard with three sections was neither big nor small. It covered an area of one mu.
It faced the south and was arranged in the same direction as Chang 'an.
It was fifteen meters wide from east to west and thirty-six meters from north to south.
When they arrived at the main hall, Princess Yongmu didn't say anything. The guards looked around and found five extra people.
They were a family. Zhou Gui stood respectfully at the side, but he still felt a little guilty. He saw that Princess Yongmu's temperament was different from usual.
"The family I hired has the same surname as Little Miss. Li An is forty-two years old. His wife is thirty-six years old. His eldest son, Li Yuanyang, is eighteen years old. His eldest daughter, Xiao Yezi, is sixteen years old. His youngest son, Li Ling, is thirteen years old.
His family gave birth to three more children, but unfortunately, they didn't grow up. A family can clean, drive, and cook. "
Zhou Gui told the situation of the five people.
He didn't say his own situation, but he did tell Xiao Lan. They were all gone. He was the only one who survived an illness.
"Go and help move things. If you do well, I won't treat you badly." Princess Yongmu tried to learn from Li Yi.
She had a lot of fun these days. The first time she met Li Yi was at the hot spring in Drunken Immortal Residence.
The second time Li Yi was flirtatious and then fed her insects.
The third time, Li Yi was still as interesting as before. He didn't look like what others said at all.
Princess Yongmu knew how many people Li Family Zhuangzi managed. She wanted to learn.
She didn't know that Li Yi was treating her to change her personality.
Otherwise, if Li Yi was serious when interacting with others, she would continue to be like when she was in the palace.
Listen to this person, listen to that person. She couldn't laugh out loud when she wanted to, and she couldn't jump around when she wanted to play.
The way he spoke and acted, his every action was respectful and courteous. It was a tiring life.
Li Yi's previous behavior was all an act. Li Yi's current age was different from his mental age.
In the future, in order to increase his lifespan, he had to do things step by step. What kind of people did he come into contact with?
Until I saw her. If I wanted to interact normally, I had to change.
If Li Yi was still so strict, Princess Yongmu would be facing another strict father.
Li Yi was trying very hard to adjust himself, imagining himself as an eighteen or nineteen-year-old teenager.
Only then would his rebirth not be in vain, and he would enjoy what he had to.
Princess Yongmu was not used to it at first, but when she came back today, she found that there were many interesting things.
Li An's family of five was not as good as Zhou Gui's. This extravagance and temperament made them panic for the first time.
"Xiao Lan." Princess Yongmu sat on the main seat.
"Steward Zhou, you should know the surname of the businessman who wants to occupy the land, right?" Xiao Lan understood and asked herself.
"He said his surname is Jiang." Zhou Gui looked worried. Someone was going to rob the land. What should he do?
"He didn't say his background?" Xiao Lan didn't care and directly asked about the other party's background.
Zhou Gui shook his head. "He didn't say."
"Then don't pay attention to them. How dare they bully my wife? Hmph!"
Xiao Lan was angry. It was not easy to buy Zhuangzi, and she was going to raise insects and plant bellflower next year.
How dare someone come over and buy 100 mu of land with vegetable greenhouses for 2,000 taels? Did they think the land in the west of Chang 'an was so easy to get?
If you really have the ability, can't you find out who I am? Come over and bully my steward?
Princess Yongmu was even more indifferent. In the Tang dynasty, who could steal from her?
"I'm tired." Princess Yongmu said two words.
"I'll go and arrange it now. Steward Zhou, take a look at the things my wife brought and put them in the account." Xiao Lan personally went to the back to check the sleeping area.
She couldn't sleep in the main hall, even if she was a Dongzhu. Women could sleep in the main hall. It was said that the Yang energy was too strong.
"Got it." Zhou Gui still couldn't figure out why it was a female Dongzhu and then a woman with a higher status was added.
What was going on with the family he was living in? Where did the male owner go?
He picked up the account book and the red and blue pencil to check the accounts.
"Be careful, don't drop the kerosene lamps and thermos bottles," the guard said as he moved the items.
A big box was opened, revealing the contents inside.
A big box of kerosene lamps wrapped in straw. There were 16 kerosene lamps in total.
Another big box was opened. There were 16 thermos bottles without shells. It didn't matter. He could make them himself.
Click. The third big box was opened. There were still kerosene lamps.
Click. The fourth box was opened. There were still thermos bottles.
Zhou Gui's hands trembled as he prepared to record. These two boxes were enough to buy the yard, land, and greenhouse.
The boxes continued to be opened. There were duck down bedding, cashmere bedding, cotton bedding, and military coats.
Then there were jars of shrimp oil side dishes, jars of fermented bean curd, glass bottles of glycerin, alcohol, and kerosene.
"You must be careful. They're all wrapped in cotton. Take your time," the guard shouted again.
The contents of a big box were carried out. The cotton quilt was opened, revealing a six feet tall and three feet wide glass mirror.
Zhou Gui rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand holding the pen. What did he see?
At this moment, he wasn't worried about the businessman surnamed Jiang. He was afraid that he would be killed.
"Lift it up. Use the cotton quilt. There are two more underneath." The guard shouted and lifted up a big mirror. Sure enough, there was something wrapped in a cotton quilt underneath.
Three large mirrors without frames were carefully placed to the side, wrapped in a quilt.
Then there were many small mirrors with frames, makeup boxes, perfume, soap, sanitary napkins, hand cream, skin cream …
Zhou Gui trembled as he took notes. His handwriting was so ugly.
Li An's family of five didn't dare to do anything. They stood together and leaned against each other, as if waiting for the verdict.
"Help. The rest is rice, flour, a meat grinder, kitchen knives, and other things that need to be put in the kitchen." The guard called out to the family of five.
The five looked at each other and went to help lift and carry the things as if they were resigned to their fate.
"Bring the horse into the stable. Throw the sled into the barn. Put Lil 'Miss's carriage in place. That's about it." The guard arranged again.
They were going to take turns to find a place to guard the yard. The other things were not their responsibility.
Li An's family started to work. This was their responsibility.
Zhou Gui didn't ask a word. He suppressed his curiosity.
It didn't matter where the things came from. What was important was that these things belonged to Lil 'Miss.
He shook his head hard and told himself not to think about Lil 'Miss' identity.
"Princess, Jiang gave us five days to make us regret. What will he do?"
Xiao Lan changed the quilt on the kang and waited for the temperature to rise. She smiled and said to Princess Yongmu.
"Call him Lil 'Miss." Princess Yongmu's gaze was on the two bicycles that were carried into the house by the palace maids.
She didn't want to ride them for fun now. She wanted to wait. Wait for the businessman surnamed Jiang to make a move.
She was thinking about taking the bicycles out to play. Jiang would sense that the situation was not good and wouldn't come looking for trouble.
Jiang bullied her today. How many people had he bullied before?
