"Who do you see?"
Gu Lei was curious and poured tea for Mrs. Wang.
"Your Sixth Brother has to take a fancy to whoever I like. This couple still needs to like each other in order to be more tolerant and harmonious in the future."
"The meaning of what my uncle said earlier was to wait a little longer. What's the reason?"
Wang thought for a while before saying: "Let me tell you, you can't talk about it outside."
"Of course, you still can't trust me."
Gu Lei blinked, and leaned in front of Wang like a child who loves to listen to gossip.
"Concubine Ye has taken a fancy to your sixth brother. She originally said that she would be a matchmaker for your elder brother. Later, our family contacted Xie's family first, and King Ye agreed. Now I have a crush on Brother Xi. The age of the niece of Princess Ye's family is also Appropriate, did not say dead."
Wang weighed it back and forth in her heart.
"Oh, Princess Ye's natal family is also a military general, but there were heavy casualties in the battle back then, and her brother was gone. It seems that there are only widowed mothers and young children left, all relying on Princess Ye to support and take care of her. She said that her niece was always by her side."
"Yes, have you seen it?"
"Looked at it from a distance, but didn't pay much attention. I'll show you back."
Gu Lei remembered something and said to Li Yu: "Did you see anyone at the banquet last time?"
"No, maybe I didn't notice it, I'll check back."
"Forget it, the children taught by Princess Ye can't make mistakes. Don't interfere, you can't ruin the girl's reputation. I ask myself, don't worry about it."
"good."
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away, and Li Yu leads the girls from the clan to host Zhongfu and host the New Year's banquet, so that the younger sisters can learn to look up and down.
The clan also had a clan banquet, all of which were organized by the girls of the clan, and it looked more and more decent. In the past two or three years, the Wang family has taught them hand in hand, and they have seen results.
Boss Li also returned to attend the clan banquet on time. One was to talk to the clan about plans for the next year, and the other was to restrain the children and grandchildren, give encouragement and guidance, and there were many odd things to do as the patriarch.
In the past, the second child helped to deal with it, clearing up all the difficulties in the rear, and solving problems for him.
Now that the second child is gone, he can only do these things by himself. After all, the children are too young to take care of themselves. They can only help, and he has to make the final decisions.
The old man lost a son, and his health is not very good. He has been taking care of it carefully for the past two years, and he dare not let him worry too much.
Boss Li first said a few words about the school, and then he talked about family affairs.
"There is still a lot of slack in family affairs. I can't take care of my family outside, and other brothers have to help each other. Today is different. No matter how slack, no money and no connections, it will delay the future of your children and grandchildren. Don't make a mistake. .”
"Also, Yu'er said that she will do a few more workshops to fill in the income for the family. The most important thing is to help the King of the Night and support the refugees. It doesn't matter if you don't get in or out."
"Last year, I spent more than 10,000 taels of silver on the porridge and water trucks in the house. The income of the family is not that much. With such a large population, there is no income if you don't fill in the industry. Last year, you spent a lot of money on buying medicinal materials and soaking medicinal baths. The former Zhuangzi All the training of cavalry is paid by the family, and the money has not been paid back until now.”
This account is actually in the heart of Boss Li.
The grandfather of the clan also put down his chopsticks and beat his grandchildren.
"Third Uncle, don't worry, we all keep this account book in our hearts, and we will never forget it. This year is not good, and the wasteland has not paid back the cost until now, and we have to put money into it, and we have to buy some better land."
"Yes, Uncle, it's not that we don't worry about it. The carpentry workshop is not manned enough. There are a lot of orders coming in. They are all happy to work, but there are not enough manpower."
"The big order of Zangshuge has only just begun. This man can't handle it. He also said that he can't do it at all by opening a furniture store."
"We know that the child is really thinking about the family, let us make more money, but there are not enough people, and everyone who can work has joined the army."
Li Jiaerlang is all-rounder. He not only knows how to fight, but also has crafts to support himself. The fourth brother is also an organ and carpenter. Now they are all trained in the army, and a lot of people are missing.
"Manpower is indeed a problem. Let's take it slowly. The existing property has to be guaranteed for me. The old sister-in-law's property has also been donated to the clan. It made money when it was given to you, but it was lost in your hands. Don't blame me for whipping you, there is no complaint."
"That's not possible, we must pay attention."
"I can invest more in the school after making money, otherwise where will the money come from? Yu'er is going to get married next year, so why don't I have the cheek to take money out of the child's pocket?"
"It was agreed before that the old sister-in-law's property was used as a dowry for the child, and Yu'er took it all out to contribute to the clan. If Yu'er has difficulties in the future, you can't ignore it, regardless of whether the child lives or dies."
The grandfather of the family specifically mentioned this matter.
"Third Uncle, look at what you said, we are not ungrateful beasts, how much Yu'er has contributed to the family and the clan, everyone has an account, and it is all in our hearts. She will be a descendant of my Li family at any time, unless Our men are all dead, otherwise we can't let others bully our daughter."
Brother Li's brother spoke first, and other uncles also nodded in agreement.
"Think about the workshop. I'm thinking about building a furniture shop and a wine shop first. Now that there are workshops, let's go to Dali and recruit more people. Don't each household send people away? Do the work first. If you want to learn the skills and don’t work, send them back.”
"Okay, will the carpentry room be allowed in?"
is talking about the secret core to let you learn.
"Come in, it doesn't matter, you can only learn one, two, three in ten years, and you can't learn anything in three to five years, so being easy to learn is not a Mohist secret."
Li Yu interrupted.
"That's OK."
"The people who come here will do the work first, drive out those lists, and get the money back so I can do other things. It's good that Manager Liu gave me a few jobs. Uncle Jiu, I'll come down and tell you carefully, how many people do you choose? Go ahead and do it first."
"OK."
"Tomorrow afternoon, I will send someone to pick up the goods. I bought some medicinal materials and came back."
Li Yu made money from shipping and did not put it in his pocket. He bought some medicinal materials for his brothers and sisters in the clan to take a medicinal bath.
"Success, I remember."
"Yu'er, will you still buy someone this year?"
"I want to buy some. The steward told me that there are not enough manpower, and there are not enough tenants. The manpower in the mansion is selected from the tenants first, and the death contract is required to ensure loyalty. The village can be more relaxed. Long-term workers and short-term workers are selected. Important positions have to be guarded by themselves. Training Zhuangzi cannot let outsiders in, and other things don’t matter.”
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
Some other clan uncles took the initiative to answer the call and took over the job.
