Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chen Afu is looking forward to Golden Swallow even more eagerly. It has been out for ten days and he doesn’t know if he has found the three-color ball.

Seeing Chen Afu's worried look, Chu Lingxuan comforted him, "Don't worry, there will always be a way. You can raise your baby with peace of mind, we men have to worry about those things." He was about to go to the front yard to discuss countermeasures with the old man.

Chen Afu stopped him and asked him to write a letter to Mr. Chu San to be careful in everything.

Chen Afu suppressed his thoughts and looked at Chu Hanyan and Xiao Li Xuan who were still with Animal House in the corridor. He thought of Alu and asked someone to invite him.

In a short time, Alu arrived.

Chen Afu felt relieved when he saw that he was fine.

Except for the day he came back from the capital, Chen Afu had never lived in the General's Mansion, so he was still quite busy at ordinary times. He had to take care of things in the mansion and worry about the business of Fuyunlai Trading Company.

Shopkeeper Zeng of Fuyunlai, General Manager Yang of the General's Office, Grandma Luo, the internal manager, and some other managers in important positions were all called to report to the main courtyard in turn.

It can be said that Fuyunlai Trading Co., Ltd. is doing very well, with basically no problems. Now the branch has opened in the capital.

The water in Shenjiang Mansion is relatively deep. Although Chu Lingxuan has been purged several times, and now there are no more Rong Zhao and Mrs. Chu's people, there are still several forces inside that are not convinced by each other and suppress each other.

It's no wonder that since the establishment of the General's Mansion, there has been no mistress. Chu Lingxuan was busy with military affairs and basically did not live in the mansion most of the time. Even though he lives in the mansion, he doesn't care much about many things in the mansion.

In the General's Mansion, the servants are basically composed of three parties.

When we first opened the government office, we asked for some of the servants from the prince's mansion in the capital and bought some more. Later, it was discovered that some people from the Marquis's Mansion in the capital, including Rong Zhao and the Second Madam, had sneaked in. They killed and sold a number of people, and also acquired some people from the Luo Mansion in the provincial capital. It has become the current situation, where the three pillars are working hard to restrain each other and at the same time exclude each other.

Especially the servants from the Marquis Mansion and Luo Mansion in the capital, who have a close relationship with me and have a very deep background.

Chen Afu's head hurt when he heard this. If in the past, the owner of the mansion was often absent, this situation might have been for the best. But now they can't continue like this. How can they take good care of their master when they are fighting each other?

Really, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the struggle between servants is also fierce.

The person Chen Afu trusted the most was Manager Luo. His second son Luo Fang was a minor steward in the mansion, but Luo Fang's words could not be fully believed because he represented the power of the Luo family.

Manager Yang is still trustworthy and is the confidant of the old Marquis. But he is the leader of the group in the Marquis Mansion in Beijing. When Chen Afu wants to use him, he must clearly realize that things are not the same as before. Gangs are not allowed. All the servants are slaves of the General's Mansion. Their only mission is to serve their master well...

Some people still have very professional ethics. They know that Chen Afu is the mistress and the uncle loves her very much and is willing to surrender completely to her. But some people don't care much, thinking that Chen Afu is just a country woman with limited knowledge. Although I think so, I still dare not say it openly. I just hope that after Chen Afu leaves, they can continue to reap benefits and continue to live a relaxed and comfortable life...

Zhang and Wu came to invite Chen Afu to their home, saying that she and her eldest sister would go to play during the day, and then let Chu Lingxuan from Shangya and Dabao and Alu from school go to have dinner in the evening.

Chen Afu didn't even agree, saying that she would straighten things out in a few days and then go have some fun.

In the midst of my busy schedule, the days slipped by to July 19th. During lunch, the servants brought a note from General Liu's house, inviting them to visit Liu's house.

Dabao, Chu Hanyan, and Li Xuan also received the post written by Liu Wang, the eldest son of the Liu family, and were extremely happy. Especially Dabao, since he studied in Tangyuan, he has very few friends. He finally had a social circle, and he played very well with Liu Wang, Liu Ao, and Qin Jin who were about the same age. Although Qin Mu was a little older and Fu Lu Shen was a little younger, they got along well with each other, so as soon as they got close The boy laughed heartily.

He looked at A Lu who was lowering his head to eat, and then asked Chen Afu in confusion, "Mom, the post has Qiqi and Huihui written on it, as well as Zhuifeng, Sasha, Long and Short, why didn't I say please?" Where is my uncle?"

There is indeed no Alu’s name.

Chen Afu smiled and said, "Last time they came to visit our house, my uncle was not here, so they don't know him. Bring him there tomorrow. If they get to know each other, they will become friends." He said to Alu again. , "Qin Mu is as old as you and has a bold temper. You can definitely talk to each other."

A Lu said, "Sister, I don't want to go to the Liu Mansion tomorrow. I have already agreed with Atang and my younger brother that we will go to the third uncle's house to play."

Chen Afu suggested, "Atang and my little brother can meet at any time. You should go to Liu's Mansion tomorrow. It will be good for you to have a wider circle of friends."

A Lu, who is usually very obedient, is very determined this time. If he doesn't go to Liu's house, he will go to Chen Shi's house. Dabao and Yan'er persuaded him, but he also shook his head.

Chen Afu had no choice but to agree. He also asked someone to tell the steward of the Foreign Affairs Office that when Mr. Cousin left the house, a gift would be prepared for him and a carriage would be sent to pick him up. He told Alu again that before leaving, he would send someone to get the gift and ask for the carriage.

Early on the morning of the 10th, Dabao got up at dawn and ran to the main courtyard with the animal house.

Chen Afu was angry and funny, and said, "No matter how early you come, you still have to wait for Yan'er and Xuan'er to get up. Besides, how can there be any reason to be a guest so early?"

At the end of the day, the Chu family took Animal House out of the house.

Chen Alu also packed his things. He put a purse containing ten taels of silver, two small silver dimes, and dozens of copper coins into his arms. He also put two pieces of ink and two pens prepared for Atang and his younger brother in the purse.

The General's Office issued monthly money on the 15th, and Chen Afu also gave Alu monthly money. Like Chu Hanyan and Dabao, he has ten taels of silver per month. Before he came, Wang also gave him ten taels of silver, a dozen silver dimes, and some big money.

Apart from asking Sanquan to go to the street to buy some snacks for him and use some money, he just wanted to reward his subordinates. There were only two small silver coins left, and he wanted to go out and find the ten taels of silver.

Lancao looked at it and said, "Uncle, didn't Grandma ask the Foreign Affairs Office to prepare gifts? You secretly gave away your pen and ink like this, and later someone found something missing, and even the slaves couldn't tell you."

Alu's face turned red with embarrassment, and he muttered, "I'll save some money, so others won't find out. Don't take the gifts prepared by the Foreign Affairs Office, because those people will say that I..."

Lan Cao said angrily, "My uncle is too honest. Grandma prepared that gift. Anyone who dares to gossip will tell Grandma and have their mouths torn apart."

PS: There was an error in the previous chapter. The moon silver of Dabao and Chu Hanyan was adjusted to twelve taels.
