"Hey, what are you doing? You come here so early in the morning, making noises, and preventing people from sleeping?"

It was still a bit chilly in the early spring morning. Chun Yu put on a quilted jacket and pushed open the door. When he saw a group of men outside the door who were busy moving bricks and stones, he was stunned for a moment, and then started shouting.

At this time, a person who looked like a housekeeper came forward and said with a smile: "Is she Miss Chunyu? This is the prince's order, saying that Qingliang Pavilion needs to be repaired. Now the wasteland outside the door must be repaired first. Flowers and trees must be planted and terrazzo should be paved.

, decorated with plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums, that’s how beautiful it is.”

"My command?"

Chun Yu was stunned. The housekeeper smiled and said, "Why don't you believe me? We dared to break into this backyard without my order? What? Didn't the prince tell my aunt about this? Speaking of which, I am really careful this time.

He also personally designed the drawings, just for the area outside the door. I have never seen him so meticulous in any of the courtyards in our palace."

"Then...let's do it. You guys get busy first. I'll go back and tell my aunt."

Chunyu scratched her head, returned to the courtyard and closed the door. When she entered the house, she saw that Xin Nian was combing Yaya's hair. When she heard footsteps, she asked without raising her head, "What's going on?"

"It's my command to repair the Qingliang Pavilion, starting from the outside..."

Chun Yu recounted what happened, and Xin Nian rolled his eyes, gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "This bastard is still evil."

"Aunt..."

"okay, I get it."

Xin Nian nodded and heard Chunyu say anxiously: "Then... in the future, when the outside is finished, won't we have to enter the yard? What should we do?"

"Let's just go to the backyard and find a yard to live in for a few days. We'll keep an eye on the progress here. When it's repaired, we can move back."

After Xin Nian finished speaking, Xinghua smiled and said, "As long as Aunt Fan has chosen the courtyard, I'm afraid the Qingliang Pavilion won't be able to be repaired."

Xin Nian chuckled: "The prince wants to take advantage of me. He thinks so well. Do you really think I can't take control of him? Then I will naturally have a way to ask him to repair Qingliang Pavilion as soon as possible and let us move back."

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard someone calling the door from outside the courtyard. Xinghua hurriedly went out and came in after a while to report in a low voice: "Auntie, the Crown Prince's wife sent a few servants over, saying that there are not enough people to serve in our courtyard.

"

"Mrs. Crown Prince? Madam?" Xin Nian raised an eyebrow: "Not grandma?"

"No." Xinghua shook her head: "I know Aunt Jiang who came with me. She is Madam's wet nurse. Because Madam is weak, she came with her as a dowry."

Xin Nian thought for a while, nodded and said: "Let them come in."

After a while, several servants came in. Mrs. Jiang had a smile on her face and was very polite. She did not despise Xin Nian because she was not favored in the past. Seeing her hugging her sixth son, Yaya, she smiled and praised:

"Yesterday, when our wife went back, she said that my aunt never came into contact with the backyard. She didn't expect the sixth young master and the fourth girl to look good. People couldn't help but dislike them when they saw them. Because they talked about it until midnight, they also regretted that they were not in good health. So far,

I don’t have a son and a half daughters yet…”

Xin Nian immediately became alert, but with a calm face, he said calmly: "What's this? Madam is still young, and given time, there will always be children around her knees. What are you doing here today? It shouldn't just be to see Liu Zai and Liu Zai.

Yaya right?"

Aunt Jiang seemed to be a little disappointed, but she quickly covered it up and said enthusiastically: "Madam met with my aunt, the sixth young master and the fourth girl yesterday. She knew that there were not enough people to serve in Qingliang Pavilion, so she specially sent a slave to send some servant girls. Auntie

Look, these are the most diligent and agile servants who came into the house last month. With them helping to clean and serve the young master and young ladies, my aunt can save some effort."

Xin Nian looked up and saw the four girls behind Aunt Jiang squatting down to salute.

She looked around and saw that none of these four girls were pretty, and they looked really smart, so she nodded and smiled and said: "That's fine, I do have a shortage of people here. I'll go over in person to thank Madam later. By the way,

There is one more thing. My aunt goes back to help me tell my wife that the Qingliang Pavilion needs to be repaired according to my master's instructions. I am afraid that I will have to go to the backyard to stay temporarily. After the renovation is completed, I will come back and ask my wife to help me choose a yard for me to stay temporarily.

.”

Aunt Jiang sighed in admiration: "Madam came back last night and said that I and my aunt have known each other since childhood. As long as my aunt changes her mind, I will still care for you. Sure enough, isn't this coming? Don't worry, aunt, I will come back when I get back.

Tell Madam, I also saw it when I first came here. There were dozens of workers outside, and it was too messy. I hurriedly cleaned up the yard and asked my aunt to move in today."

Xin Nian smiled and said, "There's no need to be so anxious. There's still work to do outside. You can wait for two or three days."

Aunt Jiang agreed and saw that there was nothing else to do, so she left.

Here Xin Nian looked at several girls, asked them about their backgrounds, and randomly assigned errands: one named Yangliu, who seemed to be diligent and smart, so he handed her the chores of cleaning the room; Hongye and Luye were responsible for sweeping the yard and other chores;

There was a man named Jinzhen, whose mother was an embroiderer, so she took charge of the sewing work in the house.

After the distribution was completed, Xin Nian picked up the tea cup and drank tea, while quietly looking at everyone's expressions, but didn't see anything unusual.

Taking advantage of the spring rain to take a few people out, Xinghua whispered: "Auntie, are you guarding against them? I think the madam probably also took this into consideration to show her sincerity, so she assigned a few of us to enter the house.

Newcomer."

Xin Nian nodded, thought for a while and said: "Madam is gentle and virtuous, and she never fights with others, but just because she can be trusted, it doesn't mean that others can also trust her. What about the newcomers? We have no foundation, so how can we make them loyal?

?Even if you are loyal now, how can you guarantee that you will be loyal in the future?"

"Yes." Xinghua felt wary when she thought of Liao's domineering attitude. Su Rong nodded and said, "Is it because I was careless or because my aunt was cautious and thoughtful?"

"You are always careful, this time you are not careless, you just don't want to think bad things about people. But Xinghua, even though Gu Changting is very capable, he doesn't care much about the backyard, so all the courtyards in this mansion are intricately connected.

Intrigue, since we want to integrate into it, we must remember those fourteen words. We must not have the intention to harm others, and we must have the intention to guard against others."

Xinghua said solemnly: "Auntie is right, I will tell Chunyu this truth later."

Xin Nian nodded, then stood up: "You and Chun Yu will clean up the house a little later, and I'll go over to see Madam and choose a yard. Once we've chosen it, we'll move there."
