After tidying up the mansion, Xu Yin decided to start a spice planting business.

The mission still needs to be completed. Instead of being rewarded with energy points and random skills, it’s okay to advance the progress bar one or two spaces, otherwise the way home will be really long.

The bandits who killed the original parents were captured and executed shortly after the incident. After the coffins of the original parents were transported back to Luo City, the funeral was completed and they were buried in the mountains behind the Xu family memorial field. It's from the Xu family.

Among them, the hilltop with the best orientation is the cemetery, where the ancestors of the Xu family are buried; some of the other hilltops are planted with fruit trees, some with tea trees, and some are ordinary firewood hills, which are convenient for nearby villagers to cut firewood and hunt. .

 This does provide her with a lot of convenience, at least it saves worry and money.

 Xu Yin wondered if the Sun family in Fengcheng could not pick her up this time. They might send someone to the door again. What's more, Sun Zhiqian or Sun's mother might appear on their own.

She was not worried that she would be successfully lobbied by them, but she was bored and too lazy to deal with them, so she simply decided to move to the mountains to live for a while.

 It also sounds nice in name: to keep filial piety to one’s parents.

The Xu family built a two-entry quadrangle on the top of the tea hill next to the cemetery, where they would come to the cemetery to pay homage to their ancestors during the Qingming Festival and Qingming Festival.

Xu Yin then decided to live there for the next three years.

The old housekeeper heard Zi Yuan say that the girl will live on Chayuan Mountain and let the old housekeeper take care of the house. He was moved and sad:

"My master and madam will be very pleased to know what I mean to you. However, the tea mountain is humid and dewy, so I might not be able to adapt to it after living there for a long time. Furthermore, shopping there is inconvenient, and the variety of food is not as rich as in the house. I think this time Gonna suffer.”

Zi Yuan conveyed Xu Yin's words: "The girl said that she went to observe filial piety, not to enjoy the blessings. On the contrary, the housekeeper has to bother to guard the house. If the Sun family of Fengcheng sends someone to pick up the girl again, they will say that the screwdriver is not acceptable. If so, just ask the nursing home to fight him out."

The housekeeper nodded repeatedly: "You don't need to give orders from the girl, but the old slave must do his best to guard the mansion for the girl."

With an old housekeeper in charge of the Xu Mansion, Xu Yin is not worried about what the people below might do.

 She made a purchase list and asked her servants to buy it.

 Purchase all the tools and auxiliary materials that may be used for growing flowers, plants and spices.

 In terms of manpower, among the maids in the Longxiang Garden, only one maid, whose parents were working in the government, was left to be responsible for the daily sweeping, cleaning and maintenance of the Longxiang Garden. The rest of them followed her to Chayuan Mountain.

Instead of letting them pick their toes in the house while she is so busy that she needs to hire someone, it would be better to take them all away. When the time comes to open up wasteland to plant spices, there will definitely be a shortage of manpower.

Isn’t the housekeeper worried about her safety? Then bring a few more who are good at guarding the courtyard, leave a few to guard other courtyards, and use the rest to open up wasteland and grow spices.

 The monthly money given to the servants every month is not a small amount!

 Xu·Stingy·Yin is online again.

It takes a long time for the carriage to travel from the Xu Mansion to the Xu family's sacrificial field and clan mountain outside the city.

On the day she decided to set off, after breakfast, Xu Yin took her maid and mother-in-law, a nursing team of twelve people, as well as the chef in the house who was good at cooking vegetarian food, and Xu Kui, who was convenient for her to send out errands, in the old house. The butler set off on his way with tears in his eyes as he watched him off.

Fortunately, I left early. Near noon, people from the Sun family in Fengcheng came to visit again.

As Xu Yin expected, this time, the Sun family's mother and son came to the door together.

 When she learned that her niece was not at home, but had gone to the Xu family cemetery to pay her respects, her grandma secretly cursed "bad luck" in her heart.

turning around to count down his son:

"It's all your fault! Last time I asked you to come to Los Angeles to pick up your cousin, you had to go to your classmate's birthday party. Yin Yin must be angry and feels that we don't value her, so she refuses to go to our house of."

“If you don’t want to go, just don’t go. Why force others to go?”

Sun Zhiqian was thinking about the "You Travel Notes" that was being serialized in his bookstore. He wondered which literary giant wrote it, and it was still interesting to read. Unfortunately, he had read all the volumes that had been published, and he didn't know when the next volume would be printed. Therefore, I didn’t care about my grandma’s scoldings.

As for the nominal cousin of the Xu family, he had met her when he was a child and followed his mother to visit his grandfather's house. He had never met her when he grew up, so he had no impression of her.

It was decided early in the morning that Xiujie would be invited to celebrate his birthday with him.

Is it okay to miss the birthday party of a classmate and close friend because of a cousin whom I have no memory of?

Seeing his nonchalant look, grandma's mother became very angry.

She has so many plans, for whom!

 But you can't say this openly, you can only sulk yourself.

 I asked the old housekeeper again and again:

"I wonder if you can contact Yin Yin. I am her aunt. I learned about the great changes in her family and came all the way from Fengcheng to visit her."

"I had exchanged letters with her a while ago, and she promised to go with me to Fengcheng to relax. I was supposed to pick her up in person a few days ago, but I had something to do at home and couldn't get away, so it was only a few days late... "

The old housekeeper replied in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "I'm sorry! Before the girl went out, she told the old slave that she would observe mourning for the master and his wife for three years, and during this period, she would not go anywhere."

"Huh?" Grandmother was stunned, "You want to stay for three years? She has been living in the cemetery for these three years? Isn't she going home?"

 “That’s what the girl told me.”

　grandmother: “…”

 Xu Yin was caught off guard by this move and was completely confused.

 When both parents have died, as a child it is necessary to pay filial piety to them, but you don’t have to go to the cemetery to do so!

 Can’t keep watch at home? Can't you stay at a relative's house? Isn’t it just about eating vegetarian instead of meat, and dressing more vegetarian?

Why do you have to move to a cemetery and guard your loved ones’ tombstones for three years?

This...that picture alone makes people feel unlucky.

Furthermore, when she makes her filial piety in three years, she will be sixteen years old. There will definitely be many people from the same family as the Xu family coming to propose marriage, and it will not be her Zhiqian's turn.

The grandma grew more and more angry as she thought about it, but what could she do?

People have gone to the cemetery to observe mourning, so we can’t go to the Xu family cemetery to persuade them, right?

How could my grandma not feel guilty when she thought about the ancestors of the Xu family lying in the cemetery, with all kinds of calculations in her mind.

 In the end, I had to return without success.

On the way back to Fengcheng, grandma leaned against the side of the carriage and sighed:

"You're going to have an exam in the hospital in the second half of the year. I thought your cousin is rich. Even if she doesn't want to live with us in Fengcheng, at least we can ask her to lend you a few taels as payment, and it won't be in vain for us to come here. Damn, I didn’t expect…”

Sun Zhiqian suddenly realized: "It turns out that Mom came to Luo City in person to borrow money from my cousin? But Mom, you don't have to worry about the cost of the college exam. Brother Xiujie comes from a well-off family. I greeted him on the day of his birthday party. When the time comes, If the money is not enough, he will help me. We have a good relationship!"

Grandmother snorted angrily and thought to herself, no matter how rich your classmate is, how can the Xu family be rich?

When she thought of the Xu family's magnificent seven-door mansion and the vast hectares of fertile land outside the city, grandma was so envious that she couldn't sleep.

  Such a large house is actually headed by an old housekeeper.

The only master went to the cemetery to observe mourning and stayed in that dark and shabby place for three years. Grandma felt that it was hard to handle her niece.

But now even if she wanted to train him, she couldn't find anyone, so she had to suppress her anger and give up for the time being.
