Chapter 21 Landlord

I sleep in spring without realizing the dawn, and I hear birds singing everywhere.

Zhang Mu just opened his eyes and stretched comfortably. He heard someone say outside, "Young Master is awake, wait quickly."

"

At that moment, the door was pushed open, and the maids Xiaoyue and Qiuyu walked in side by side and saluted: "Young master, wash up and change your clothes."

Before Zhang Mu could react, Xiaoyue lifted Zhang Mu's brocade quilt. Zhang Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself."

As soon as he stepped on the wooden clogs, Qiuyu held a copper basin and waited for Zhang Mu to wash his face.

Zhang Mu reached out to wash his face. As soon as he got up, Xiaoyue put a hot towel on his face, and then Xiaoyue served him to start changing clothes.

Zhang Mu stood on the ground, motionless, and his clothes were neatly worn.

Thinking about the hard days I spent in Hexuan before, it was a world of difference.

As soon as he arrived at the outer hall, the woman who was rumoring to eat came in with two steamed lunch boxes below, put them on the ground to greet them and retreat.

Xiaoyue hurriedly opened the lunch box to set up rice, a bowl of sweet eight-treasure porridge, a plate of crystal jujube rice cake, a basin of steamed eggs, poured on it

It is covered with sesame oil and sprinkled with coriander, and the fragrance is swaying.

There are also eight side dishes, four salty, four sweet, two meat and six vegetables, and a full table.

At this time, Song Wen came in to greet you, and then said, "Young Master, the carriages and horses are ready. You have invited you to dinner and greet the patriarch, and you can leave."

"Have you had breakfast? Come and have something together?" Zhang Mu smiled.

"Oh, Master, please eat quickly. The mansion is really different now. Yesterday, the old patriarch of the foreign patriarch saw some weeds in the outer courtyard, so he asked Butler Zhang to ask someone to beat Li Gouzi for twenty boards. Now he is still lying on the **. If the patriarch knows that I am eating with you, I will not be able to live a life of my life?" Song Wen said hurriedly.

When Zhang Mu heard this, he smiled helplessly. The old patriarch was strict in governing his family, with clear internal and external rules and no one was allowed to transgress at all.

After dinner, I cleaned my hands and rinsed my mouth, so that the pine winds could help me toward Xuanrong Hall.

After seven or eight days of automatically regaining the home business, life is leisurely and comfortable. The most important thing every day is to conserve the morning and evening, and then to read books and discuss the story with Wang Hongtai, save time to eat and sleep, and then give Qiaoer a story.

Song Wen and the three servants carried Zhang Mu to Zhang Fu's door, put down the vine bench, and Zhang Mu went in to greet him.

The old clan is old and has already gotten up. Now he is sitting on the side of the desk holding a book "Hui Zhen Ji" and is so fascinating. When he saw Zhang Mu coming in, he hurriedly put down the book and covered it with other books, and then walked out.

"My grandson is here to greet you." Zhang Mu smiled.

"The injury on the leg is better?" Zhang Qi asked.

"It's done, it's okay." Zhang Mu smiled.

"Well, that's good. Today I will accompany you to the village to check it out. Wenqian, is the car ready?" Zhang Qi smiled.

"We are all waiting outside the door." Zhang Wenguang hurried in, bowed to Zhang Mu first, and then said with a smile.

Since Zhang Mu took over the family business of the two governments, he had never been to his own farm. He was originally the butler who took Zhang Mu there, but it was probably because Zhang Qi was afraid that Zhang Mu would be deceived by others, so he accompanied him in person.

"**Beautiful, my grandson will accompany the clan leader to go out for a walk." Zhang Mu smiled.

After a moment, two carriages, seven or eight followers set out from the Zhang Mansion in a mighty manner.

"Mu Guoguo, why do you think that Jia Baoyu doesn't like Xue Baochai, but likes Lin Daiyu? I think Xue Baochai is good." Qiao'er sat in the car, looking at the beautiful outside the city, and asked excitedly.

"Idiot, haven't I said it? Do you remember that once Shi Xiangyun advised Jia Baoyu to study hard in the future. Shi Xiangyun took the opportunity to persuade Baoyu to pay attention to the major events of the "economic career". Baoyu said this was called a bastard and declared: If Lin Meimei also said these bastards, I would have been separated from her. Do you know what this is? This is a similar temper and a close relationship with each other. Of course, only Lin Meimei understands Jia Baoyu's heart, so he will like Lin Meimei. Do you understand?" Zhang Mu smiled.

"Well, it's so complicated." Qiao'er shook her head blankly.

"A stupid girl, to put it simply, there are two types of likes. The first kind of likes is that you think he is good and willing to be with him. The second kind of likes is that even if he is not good, you are still willing to be with her. This kind of likes can be a couple." Zhang Mu explained with great difficulty.

"It's nonsense. In your words, the second kind of like is that your brain is filled with water. Since he is not good, why do you still like him?" Qiao'er said disdainfully.

"Hey, one day, you are worried about someone. If you can't see him for a moment, your life will be boring and you will understand. It's like Xue Baochai is indeed gentle and charming, but Jia Baoyu likes Lin Daimei who loves to lose her temper. So what love is, it's just that it makes people agree with each other." Zhang Mu sighed lightly and smiled helplessly.

"Then I don't like people, I hear such troublesomeness." Qiao'er muttered in a low voice.

"Young master, the farm has arrived." Song Wen shouted outside the carriage.

Zhang Mu and Qiaoer got off the carriage and looked up. What was endless in front of them was a cauliflower field.

The breeze ripples, and the cauliflowers are undulating like waves, as spectacular as the ocean.

Not far away, there is a small courtyard. At this moment, an old man in his fifties wore a blue cloth and a bun, a short brown robe with a coarse cloth tied around his waist, and a short whisker strap on his waist. He came out in straw sandals.

This old man's skin is dark and windy walking. Although his hair is gray, he is energetic. His face is full of traces carved by the suffering of time. His big hands are like palm-leaf fans, with calluses on it and several scars. He looks like an honest villager.

"Little Wang Da, please pay tribute to the old patriarch and the young master." Wang Zhuangtou walked quickly to them and hurriedly bowed and smiled.

"Old Wang, are you still in good health?" the patriarch asked with his hands on his back.

"Thank you, the master, you are in good health. You can eat three big bowls of rice in one meal. How many years can you serve the master?" Wang Zhuangtou said with a hearty smile.

"Okay, you take us to the fields. I haven't come out for a long time." The old patriarch smiled.

At that moment, Wang Zhuangtou hurriedly walked in front to lead the way.

"Muzhi, look around. When our Zhang family was at its peak, what you could see, what you could not see, and even the entire Yongkang were from our Zhang family. Now it is not possible. I can only guard this family business for you. What will happen to the Zhang family in the future depends on whether you can hold on." Zhang Qi said earnestly while walking.

"Grandpa Don't worry, I will definitely make our Zhang family better than now in the future." Zhang Mu smiled thoughtfully.
