Help

Of course accepting his fate was one of the reasons, and Li Da also knew that this was also related to Gulan's own ability.

To be honest, although I secretly complained and envied, I didn't feel jealous. The huge difference between the two made me not have any bad thoughts.

When they originally moved to their hometown in Linzhou, their family had less than ten acres of land, but during the busy farming season, their family of more than a dozen people were so busy that they could not finish the work in a few days. With a hundred acres of land, a dozen people is not a lot.

Seeing that Gulan was not fooled, Li Da looked at him with a relieved. At the same time, he was happy for Gulan. With these, even if he could not make any money, he would not have to worry about his livelihood in the future. He originally thought that since Gulan was too busy at home, he would come over to help when he had nothing to do, but now it seems that is no longer necessary.

Actually, if you think about it, his time to help is limited after all, so it is better for one's own people to do the job, and it is impossible for one to always rely on the help of others. Thinking about it this way, buying people is indeed the best way.

Gulan saw Li Da's expression, especially the look on Li Da's face when he was happy for her at the end. Gulan nodded secretly in her heart.

"Brother Li, you came at the right time. I was just about to ask you for help."

Hearing this, Li Da became more energetic. There was not much more work at home with him, and it would not make much less if he was absent, so he could still help out.

He immediately said, "What do you mean by help? Just tell me if you have any problem." He almost patted his chest.

"You can see that there are so many people here all of a sudden. There are rooms, but there is nothing in them..."

"You want me to help you with the shopping." Li understood what Gulan meant before he finished speaking.

"Yes, the room is empty. I need a bed, furniture, bedding, etc. Asking Brother Li to drive two carts to follow me. I want to buy a lot of things this time, and I want to buy them all in one trip."

At this moment, Gulan seemed to have forgotten that if she bought a lot of furniture and other items, the store would still deliver them to her door.

When Li Da heard this, he agreed without hesitation and nodded quickly.

"Well, let's go now while we still have some time. We won't miss lunch on the way there and back."

"Okay, I'll go call the second brother." Li Da ran out in a hurry, completely forgetting about his little nephew Goudan who came with him.

The little guy was also feeling depressed at the moment, and did not mess with her son at all as Gulan had expected.

Goudan happily ran into the house to find Brother AnAn. He thought Brother AnAn would play with him, but who would have thought that Brother AnAn would control him and make him study together.

But when he saw Brother AnAn pointing at the toys in a wooden box, the little guy resisted the urge to run away and just followed him to read. Brother AnAn said that as long as he completed the homework assigned by his brother and could recite and recognize the words, he could play with the toys in the box.

Goudan tried his best for these toys!.

When Gulan came in, the little guy was trying hard to recite. AnAn was also copying calligraphy, and he didn't relax at all just because Goudan came over and played with him.

It was a bit unexpected, but Gulan was more happy that AnAn's self-control was getting better and better as he was able to complete his own tasks seriously without being affected by external factors. Gulan was very pleased. If nothing unexpected happened, the little guy would definitely be fine when he grows up.

Gulan's footsteps were so light that neither of the two children noticed her coming in.

When Gulan approached the two little ones, Goudan, who was swaying from side to side while reading, noticed her first. He called out "Uncle Gu", and then AnAn realized that his mother had come in.

He quickly turned his head to look at his mother, and his tender little face instantly lit up, "Dad, I am practicing calligraphy seriously." The little guy glanced at Goudan.

Gulan also smiled, touched her son's furry head and said gently: "Dad saw it, but you have been practicing for a while, you also need to take a break. You need to learn to combine work and rest. Let's rest for a quarter of an hour."

AnAn must listen to his mother's words. He immediately put the brush into the brush washer and nodded his little head.

"Dad, have you finished your work?" He looked outside the door.

"Almost done, but I have to go out soon to buy some things, so it might take a while, so you should practice calligraphy at home, okay? Dad will let Daya and Erya come in to accompany you, and will also let the housekeeper know."

"Housekeeper?" AnAn noticed these two words keenly. Having recognized so many words, AnAn understood the meaning of the word housekeeper.

He immediately said, "Dad, is this the person we bought?"

"Yes, my son is smart. He thought of it right away. I will ask the housekeeper to come in and let you recognize him. At the same time, I will also let him meet you, the young master. I have also selected two servants for you. From now on, these two brothers will follow you."

After all, AnAn was still young, and still couldn't fully understand what a servant was. But he still nodded obediently.

"Be good, play with Goudan for a while. Dad will go and let our new housekeeper meet you."

"Yeah," AnAn nodded and walked towards Goudan, who had been standing next to the toy box impatiently. The little guy was very envious.

Seeing the two children playing, Gulan smiled knowingly, went to the side room and called out Jin Wangjia, the new housekeeper who was about to take office.

"Master," Jin Wangjia called out quickly, looking at Gulan in a flattering manner. He was still a little confused at the moment, surprised and happy, and didn't understand why his master chose him to be housekeeper.

Gulan nodded, "I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the house first." As for letting him see her son, it would not be too late after she took the housekeeper around the house. That way he would have an idea of ​​what to expect when he arrived at the new environment.

"This is the kitchen." Gulan led housekeeper Jin to familiarize himself with the kitchen, telling him where things were placed, as well as where meat, vegetables, and rice were stored.

Next is the location of the woodshed and the toilet. It is emphasized that no one is allowed to enter the toilet room except for cleaning. This is where Gulan takes a bath, and it is also a place where you should pay special attention. You must be careful, extremely careful.

Then there is the Gongfang. With so many new people coming in all of a sudden, it seems that just one Gongfang is not enough. However, she had the foresight to leave all the remaining materials for building the house, which was enough for not only a few guest rooms, but even a whole house.

Next came the rooms of the eldest and second girls. When he entered, the two little girls were practicing calligraphy. Although he told housekeeperJin that the two girls were also servants in the family, he had an idea of ​​what was going on after looking at the furnishings in the girls' rooms and the calligraphy they were practicing. Although she is of the same status as them, she is definitely different in the young master's heart. However, the two little girls are young, and with the adults around, there is no need for them to do any work.

Next was the backyard, where the well was, and then the stables with the dozen or so horses inside. In short, you have to take good care of the horses, and the food and fodder are stored in the house next to the stable.

Before leaving, Gulan pointed to the six or seven acres of vacant land in the backyard and told housekeeper Jin to arrange for people to dig out the land when there was nothing to do, especially the stones and hard objects that should not be left in the land.

Housekeeper Jin nodded repeatedly. He originally thought that the master had just entered the yard and it should be easy even if there was work to do. But after taking a look around, he realized that it was not as easy as he thought.
