"Every time my eldest brother comes back during the Chinese New Year, he always talks about the customs and people over there. I really want to go and take a look. I will definitely go and see it when I have the chance in the future." The two women talked about the north in the car.
Shuduo and Pan'er had gotten up early in the morning, and once the excitement wore off, they began to doze off. Chunxiao let them lean against her and Xiaohua for a nap. They would occasionally chit in, and soon they too would doze off against the car wall.
By the time their sleepiness faded, they were almost at Sanye Town. They were finally back.
Xiaohua was afraid that Shuwen was tired, so she switched seats with Shuwen and let him go to the carriage to rest, while she sat in the driver's seat and drove the carriage.
"Remember to take your things with you when you get off the bus, otherwise if they fall with me, I'll think they're mine." Chunxiao reminded.
"What did he buy?" Tian was a little curious.
Shuwen blushed for the first time. "I didn't buy anything!" He glanced at Chunxiao and asked, "Aunt, have you sent out the letter?"
"I sent it out when the convoy came a few days ago. Don't worry, your uncle and aunt will definitely receive it. This is a big deal for our family."
When they returned home, they told Yan Bingfa and Yan Dashan what had happened in the county town.
Yan Dashan was extremely upset. "It's all my fault for being so careless that I didn't notice such a thing. Fortunately, you guys transferred Xiaoqi to another school this time. Otherwise, I don't know how long he would have suffered."
"I blamed you at first, especially when I saw how hurt they both looked. But then I thought, if they don't say anything, it wouldn't be easy to notice. Forget it, we should pay more attention to them from now on. We can't ignore the children just to make money."
Yan Bangfa looked at Chunxiao, "The new academy you are talking about should be better than the previous one. Such things won't happen again." When he first heard it, his heart ached. His grandson actually suffered in an unknown place. Fortunately, he discovered it in time.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I heard from Wuzhong that even the county magistrate of Xinxueguan couldn't squeeze anyone in. It's all because of our aunt's ability."
"Why don't you bring them back home to live with you for a while? It's better for them to live peacefully at home. In my opinion, it's enough for them to read so many books. Just being able to read and write is enough."
"You're just being womanly." Yan Bingfa disagreed with Zhou's opinion. "Our family is well off now. If Xiaoqi works hard to improve his family situation, we'll all be happy. If a child likes to study, we'll support him. He's just suffered a little injustice, so why would he want to stop studying?"
"That's all I said. Why are you so excited? I can't even feel sorry for my child who has been wronged."
Chunxiao looked at the bickering old couple and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm going back first. I bought a lot of things on this trip to the county town, and I have to go back to set up the arrangements. I haven't been here for the past few days, so I don't know how the arrangements are going over there. I have to go back and take a look."
Chunxiao took Xiaohua in a horse-drawn carriage to the end of the village. The scenery from Dashan's house to the end of the village had completely changed. Both sides of the wide road had become flat land. Several families had fenced off their land and were building houses. When they saw Xiaohua in the carriage, the busy people on the roadside greeted her one after another, and Xiaohua responded enthusiastically.
Her house covers a large area and has high walls that can be seen from a long distance. It is at the end of the road, with a large mahogany door right on the road. When they arrived, Xiaohua went to knock on the door. The gateman in the front yard was Xia Daying from the village. When he saw them coming back, he helped to pull the carriage into the yard. If they went straight and turned a corner, they would reach the front yard of the house. Chunxiao got off the car, and Xia Daying continued to pull the carriage along the path along the wall to the backyard.
The two of them walked through the front yard and the corridor and went straight to the backyard. On the way, they ran into Ximei and Shanqiu who were watering the flowers and trees in the yard. Seeing them come back, the two of them hurriedly surrounded them, "Boss, you're back?"
"Go to the backyard and help move the things from the carriage and arrange them. Xiaohua, you know where everything is placed. You take them with you. I'll go see how the craftsmen are doing." After saying that, she went to the side yard.
The small pond in the side yard near the mountain has been completed, and the pavilion in the middle of the lake has been built long ago. It will be comfortable after it is filled with water and some lotus flowers are planted. However, I am afraid that I will have to find someone else to buy this kind of lotus.
After a month of arrangement, the rockery landscape in the yard is almost completed. Although it will take some time to see the effect of the green plants, the preliminary appearance of a garden has been taken, and her money is worth it.
She looked at the doors of the rooms in various courtyards. They were antique and full of charm. At this moment, the craftsmen were all in the side courtyard. When she went there, a group of people were preparing to finish work.
"Is the boss back from the county town?"
"Just got back." She smiled. "Thank you for your hard work, everyone. I took a look and I'm afraid the work in the yard will be over soon."
Everyone laughed. "All that's left is carpentry work, like some detailed cabinets for the rooms. The exterior was all finished the day before yesterday. You can walk around the house and take a closer look over the next two days. If you have any questions, please let us know. We estimate we'll be done with everything by the 20th."
Finishing the house was a big accomplishment. After all the craftsmen had left, she would clean up the house again and then assign tasks to the four people. From now on, this would be her base camp and retirement place.
Duo'er and Pan'er haven't been home for a long time, and they want to stay at home these days. Chunxiao tells them that if they want to come and live here, they can come anytime. There are many houses anyway, and they can live however they want.
On the 15th, she was directing people to plant osmanthus trees in the front yard. These osmanthus trees were bought by a familiar gardener with the help of a craftsman. They were said to be good varieties. She bought 30 trees at a time. Then she heard someone knocking on the door, and Daying went to open the door.
