On moving day, Fang Jinshi let Yulian take Mu Shi and a portion of the servants to the Hou Mansion first. Since all their mistresses had left, someone reliable was needed to manage Jinxiu Mountain Villa.

Chang He is exceptionally capable, but staying at the estate would be a waste of his talent. Besides, the Hou's household has many matters to attend to, and without him, I'd only cause myself trouble later.

Xiaoyue had long since made it clear that she would only follow herself and had little interest in management. Jinyu's personality was more soft, lacking authority in managing things. Qiujing basically stayed by her mother's side, and her mother was used to being served by her. She couldn't possibly use the maidservants around her mother.

Zhao Xingzhou was definitely going to follow the majority and continue as the head steward at Hou Mansion, Yun Ni would naturally also follow her brother, and it wouldn't be good to separate the two siblings.

For the selection of the person who would take over the manor, Fang Jinshi had a headache for several days, and until now, she hadn't decided. As they were about to move out soon.

Fang Jinshi sat in the pavilion of the villa, watching the busy people in the fields. If Brother Zong Hu and Sister Yan'er had come to Beijing with them at that time, they wouldn't have even a trustworthy person.

She sighed, “Xiaoyue, who else could I possibly ask to manage the manor”

Jinxiu Mountain Villa was one of her most important assets, with a significant amount of silver passing through its hands daily. Giving it to others would make it difficult to guarantee they wouldn't be tempted to steal.

“If Master Zong Hu were here, it would be great. He is the eldest brother of our master, and Mrs. Yan and the second mistress have a good relationship. Giving the manor to them would allow you to rest assured, knowing that the manor would be well taken care of.”

The husband and wife were both skilled farmers, making them the ideal candidates.

"Xiaoyue, you've really hit the nail on the head."

Zongyu went down to court and returned to the front gate of the Marquis's mansion. Hearing from his servants that Jinxiu was still on this side of the mountain villa, he hurried over. From afar, he heard the conversation between his wife and the maidservant, so he strode towards them.

"Since they are the most suitable candidates, let Big Brother and Sister-in-Law go write a letter."

"Ask them about their willingness. If they are willing, you won't have to worry."

"If you don't want to come, don't feel obligated."

A smile immediately appeared on her face when she saw her husband Fang Jinxiu.

"I'm back."

"I've also thought about writing a letter to my older brother and sister-in-law, but I'm worried the journey is too far for them, especially with the children."

“Life in the village is now very peaceful and we don’t worry about food and clothing. Tie Zhu even sent a letter saying that the school has been built in the mountain villa.”

The children's issue of going to school has been resolved.

"The capital city sees a lot of wind and rain, I'm afraid bringing my older brother and sister-in-law here wouldn't be good for them."

Zongyu nodded. "Write the situation in the capital in your letter, and leave it to Big Brother and the others to decide whether they will come or not."

"Well, that's all we can do then."

Before Big Brother and Sister-in-law arrive, this farm needs someone to take care of it temporarily.

As soon as Fang Jinshu's voice fell, Zhao Yunni walked over.

"I'll stay and help you manage things for a while."

Fang Jinshu was a little surprised.

"Yun Ni"

"Zhao Xingzhou will return to the Hou Mansion with us today. Then, you'll be the only one left at the village. Aren't you afraid"

Since Zhao Yunni escaped from the Shen family, her personality has become much more reserved than before. She is quite good at managing things, but all the workers in the mountain villa are rough people. Without them, she's afraid she won't be able to control them.

"I'm afraid, but didn't you just say you were going to bring someone from home to take care of the farm"

"I think, I should be able to hold on for a while."

Fang Jinshu frowned. If Zhao Yuni was willing to stay, of course she would be a great help.

It's just Zhao Xingzhou's side.

Zhao Yun seemed to have guessed Fang Jinshi's thoughts and quickly said.

"I know you're worried about me, you've done so much for us siblings these days, and I never know how to repay you."

"Jinxiu, you should let me share some of your worries and help out. I can't live under your protection forever."

"And Xingzhou, I'll make it clear to him. I volunteered to stay and help manage the manor."

Fang Jinshui saw her resolute expression, hesitated for a moment then nodded.

"Well, to be honest, I'm really relieved you can stay and help me. You've done me a huge favor."

Hearing that she had actually been of help, Zhao Yuni's face flushed with delight.

After her previous failed marriage, Zhao Yunni, who was once as delicate as a flower, has become increasingly strong and capable of standing on her own two feet.

Sometimes a scumbag can be the strongest growth catalyst for another woman, but the price is extremely high.

As the manor gates closed, Fang Jinshu and Zong Yu drove the last carriage loaded with luggage towards Wuding Houfu in the city.

The news of Wuding Hou Qiao's move to a new residence was no secret. Wagons transporting the belongings of the Hou Mansion could be seen on every street corner.

Fang Jinshiu has been in the capital for some time now, and quite a few things have accumulated in Jinshiu Mountain Villa.

This one after another carriage procession, looking really eye-catching.

The message somehow reached the ears of Old Madam Wu, who lived in a dilapidated house in the eastern part of town. The old woman had stolen two cabbages from her neighbor's garden and also brought back this earth-shattering news.

He hurried to find his eldest son, Sōhei.

"Boss, boss, something's terrible!"

Zongpingchuan, lying in bed, felt disgusted by his mother's loud voice. Yuan Xiangli hadn't come for a while now, and he was very worried. Ever since they had an argument last time because his mother and older brother asked her for the property deed to the house, she hadn't come back.

Zong Pingchuan was worried that she would not care for him. If Yuan Xiangli didn't care about him, could he rely on his greedy and ignorant mother and selfish and lazy elder brother

Old Mrs. Wu put down her basket and found her eldest son, who was sound asleep. She shook him frantically awake.

"Wake up! Something big has happened."

Zong Pingchuan didn't move, his eyelids didn't even flutter, and he said lazily.

"What big deal could it be, even if the second son kicked the bucket now, it wouldn't be a big deal for us."

Yuan Xiangli, that despicable person, wouldn't give them their land deeds and silver. They were struggling to survive. What in the world could be more important than money

Lady Wu's face was full of excitement.

This time, we probably really depend on the second son to live a good life. He can't swallow his anger now.

Hearing the three words "good days," Zong Pingchuan finally came to life. He opened his eyes and turned his head.

"What does that mean"

The whole city is abuzz, saying that the second son's family's honor has now become a Marquis, and they are moving into the Marquis' mansion today.

"Just the luggage fills dozens of carts, and there are countless gold and silver treasures!"

"You always say that officials like him care most about their reputation. We're his godmother and godfather, he wouldn't dare ignore us! If he does, we'll just sit at his doorstep and make a scene."

"An old woman of her age is not afraid to lose face, but officials may not be so bold."

Lady Wu smiled, a smile that didn't reach her eyes. It was as if she had already seen herself become the mistress of the Hou family, living a life of comfort and luxury, being pampered by everyone around her.

Zongping Kang sprang to his feet.

"What The second son's reputation became a Marquis"

"Isn't that right!"

"Which official is higher ranking, the Marquis or the Minister" asked Old Mrs. Wu.

Zhong Ping quickly got up and put on his clothes and shoes.

"Of course, the Marquis is older."

"Mother, this time it seems like we might really make it. The second son, that black-hearted good-for-nothing, the only right thing he's ever done in his life is giving our clan so many children."

"As long as one of us succeeds, we can all benefit from the reflected glory. What was that saying again"

"This is called 'when one person achieves enlightenment, even the chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.'"y might be asked to do something for them again.She smiled, "The canal definitely needs to be dug. After all, the water source is quite far from our home, and it's not safe to always walk through the...
