Compared with Gu Dachang, who was so busy at the end of the month and the first few days of the month that his heels hit the back of his head, although Zhou Banxia was not relaxed, he was much better.
In her words, all she had to do was talk. After all, it was too much mental effort. Behind her was Gu Wenxuan, a dog-headed strategist.
But after some arrangements, even though it was just lip service, I was still busy until dark, and then I was able to finish arranging the work before Xiaonian one by one.
The work tasks of each manager in the workshop were decided, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law would take care of it, but she still had a lot to deal with in the small family of her own two.
Fortunately, as the most tedious task of the year - New Year's gifts, the gift list had been drawn up beforehand, and the first batch of New Year's gifts were sent out in advance according to the distance.
In the next two days, while Zhou Banxia was nursing her baby, she focused her attention on the sewing room, which made her mother, who was in charge of the sewing room, very happy.
While she was worried that her master, Zhou Banxia, would be busy, Zhou's mother happily took the little maid to the sewing room and personally picked up a baggage on her left and right hands.
As soon as the two bundles were untied, they were all the baby's clothes, shoes and hats. Except for the outer layer of the coat and shoes and hats, which were made of satin fabric, the rest were all made of fine cotton.
The colors are even more diverse, and they are available for both boys and girls. There are also universal styles. Some coats even have gold threads embroidered on them, not to mention pearls.
Zhou Banxia didn't know what to say after seeing it. The scholar in her family was completely crazy. How much clothes could a child with a big butt wear after birth?
In addition, the child's grandmother, the child's aunt, the child's grandmother, the child's aunt, and the rich uncles who are not counted in sets but in boxes?
It’s easy to imagine that you can’t even wear it with your butt without using your brain.
It's really a waste, and it's hard to choose and give it to the sister-in-law (from the Zhou family). After all, this sister-in-law is also a rich man.
Now there are still two months before the earliest due date of her aunt and sister-in-law, and the elder sister-in-law has even delivered the clothes, shoes and hats that her nephew can wear in advance.
As a sister-in-law, if she dares to send another box of baby products, she will definitely be able to get a car full of children's things back before she is born.
I really can't afford to associate with rich people, none of them take money seriously.
Just when Zhou Banxia felt something about it, there was a call from the little maid outside the door - the young master had sent Jiaxing to accompany Yunke and the boy had returned with a cart of things.
Has the Gaofu family received the New Year's gift so quickly, or is it because the young lady of the Gaofu family is also worried about the inconvenience of traveling in winter and notified Yunke in advance to send the New Year's gift?
While she was puzzled, she was thinking about the New Year's gift for Yun Ke Lai, shopkeeper Wang. She also planned to wait until the second batch passed Laba before sending it to Wang's house. The answer finally came to her.
——It was the longan and lotus seeds that shopkeeper Wang prepared for making Laba porridge the day after tomorrow. Gu Wenxuan simply returned the gift of barley and dried fruits in the county town.
Since it was a store recommended by Zhao Laoer and the price was right, Gu Wenxuan bought some more and even bought red beans and kidney beans and sent them back.
In addition, letters from home are naturally indispensable. In the letters, he expressed regret that he could not even go home to spend the holidays with his daughter.
Give Zhou Banxia to An Le.
It was really hard for him to have someone as thick-skinned as a city wall express his emotions implicitly in his letter. He even scolded the county magistrate for being full and doing things like Laba Wenhui while having nothing to do.
Considering that Laba was attending a cultural gathering that afternoon, Gu Wenxuan and Dajiang did not bring much clothing and accessories, so Zhou Banxia immediately decided to pack up a suitcase for Jiaxing to take back to the county town.
Jia Xing really wants to say that the second young master is most concerned about your reply to his letter, not the clothes. The second young master now wears county school Confucian clothes wherever he goes.
Of course, the reason why Gu Wenxuan is like this is not because he is afraid of getting into bad luck, but because he has no need to dress up in Qingyang County now.
Even if it is a cultural gathering hosted by a county parent official, even if he appears in a washed-white "school uniform", there is no longer any need to respect people first and then others. Furthermore, the fact that Gu Wenxuan changed his identity from a humble farmer was no longer a secret in Qingyang County. There were people who wanted to speculate and win over him.
There are even some who want to use him to climb two big trees in the Zhou Mansion. But after all, Zhou Banxia is the key figure among them.
No matter how virtuous the wife is, she will not be happy to have multiple vying for favors in the backyard. It is not good to offend anyone.
Who would be so stupid as to insert a maid next to Gu Wenxuan, knowingly knowing this situation, and deliberately causing trouble for Zhou Banxia? This was when Zhou Banxia was pregnant with Liujia.
If, like in a wealthy family, the wife was physically inconvenient and virtuous enough to allow the maids around her to serve her husband, she would not have waited six or seven months now.
Not only Gu Wenxuan, but also Zhou Banxia was well aware of the twists and turns here. It could be said that people didn't even like to take him to play in romantic places.
Unless the other party has the purpose of causing discord between the couple and breaking up the couple from the beginning, who doesn't want to be on good terms with each other and is annoying to others.
Compared to the scholar Jia Xing, who was thinking a lot, Zhou Banxia was worried about Gu Wenxuan, who was thinking all over the place and finding excuses to slip home before the city gate closed.
She also needs to think about how to coax Gu Wenxuan in her reply, so that he can just play with him in peace, without making a joke if someone sees the reply.
On this side, Jia Xing hesitated for a moment. After all, he still couldn't bear the disappointment of his young master. He couldn't bear to ask his mother, who was the housekeeper of the West Road courtyard, for everything, so he sent his maid to pass the message to Mai Huang.
Mai Huang is going to win over this idiot.
Didn’t the master ask you to go to the mistress’s yard first to see if there is anything else that the mistress wants you to report to the second young master?
Don't worry about anything. When you leave the master and his wife and get on the carriage to return to the city, the master will naturally send a maid to deliver the letter to you in advance.
Is that what it looks like?
Jia Xing said that in the past, the Second Young Master wrote replies quickly, unlike this time, he was asked to go back and tell the Second Young Master that the family was very good and that he was not cold or hungry.
Fortunately, Mai Huang didn't fool him.
When he returned to the west door where the carriage was parked, not only Yunke's boy was waiting here with the reward, but Mai Huang himself was standing holding a wooden box.
Yes, I almost forgot something.
The young master hasn't mentioned it to the second young lady yet, but both he and Zhi Ming know that Manager Hua went out this afternoon to find something good for the second young lady.
What good stuff?
have no idea!
Mai Huang was laughed at by Jiaxing.
Returning to the main courtyard of West Road Courtyard, Mai Huang informed Zhou Banxia as soon as he saw it - Jia Xing said that the young master sent Manager Hua to find something good for you this afternoon.
Zhou Banxia was a little surprised when he heard this, but he seemed to be expecting it, but he asked: What good thing?
The bad guy from Jiaxing tilted his head and said he didn't know. After saying that, he deliberately ran to the stone of Yunke Lai's boy, so that he couldn't ask any more questions. (End of chapter)
