Yang Yizhong handed a booklet to Yang Yan. Yang Yan took it and said, "Grandpa, what is this?"

Yang Yizhong said: "Your house deed." ”

Yang Yan was stunned and said, "My deed?"

Yang Yizhong said: "The day after tomorrow, I will go to Jiankang Mansion to supervise the army, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come back in a few months, so I will do this before I leave." Your current official position is not low, and your age is not too young, it is time for you to be independent. So I want to separate the Dongjin Courtyard where you live now as your mansion. I've got the deed ready, and you have to collect it yourself. ”

Only then did Yang Yan understand that after dinner, Yang Yizhong called him to the study to say that there was something. It turned out to be their own independent portal. In fact, Yang Chaoguang and Yang Chaoliang brothers both have their own separate mansions. However, in Yang Yizhong's mansion, there has always been a courtyard where they live, in case they often come back to live.

Yang Yan said: "Isn't it good that I live with my grandfather like this now?" Why are you tricking me into moving out?"

Yang Yizhong said with a smile: "Yan'er, you can't live with me for the rest of your life." In the future, after you and the princess get married, you should also have your own horse mansion. What's more, I just separated the East Entrance Courtyard from my side, opened another gate, and changed the plaque, and the other cases are still the same as before, and the gate that leads to this side does not need to be sealed. But in the future, you will have to worry about all the expenses of your family. I'm almost seventy years old, and I plan to retire in a year or two and go back to the countryside to live a few quiet days. You're going to have to learn to take care of your own home. ”

Yang Yan was stunned for a moment, the expenses on his side had always been drawn from Yang Yizhong, and he never cared about it. He himself has been in the army all the year round, and he has always handed over the tassel for safekeeping, and he rarely cares. Even if he comes back to live, the life of the two of them is very simple, his life is taken care of by tassels, and it is useless to even treat a daughter, only a few old mothers and old family members help to do some heavy work, and their monthly money is also collected in Yang Yizhong's account. Thinking of this, Yang Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I've never taken care of my home." ”

Yang Yizhong said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have already thought about it, let Ah Quan and his wife be the general manager for you, and with them to help you, you don't have to worry." "Yang Quan is the second head of the Yang Mansion, much younger than the chief manager Yang An, less than forty, grew up in the Yang Mansion since he was a child, he is very shrewd and capable, and his martial arts are also quite popular, I heard that he came to help him, Yang Yan was relieved.

Yang Yizhong said again: "Now it's okay for you to live in Dongjin Courtyard by yourself, but since you have been a concubine, the Horse Mansion is a little smaller, I have bought several houses around you with the scriptures, and then row a piece from my side, and the place is enough." But if you want to renovate it, you can build a garden in your house, open a pond, and build a dozen houses. Then hire some family members and maids, and it's just like that. I let Ah Quan arrange these things, don't bother with you, he will definitely arrange them, if you have any other requirements, just tell Ah Quan to do it. ”

Yang Yan listened to it with a big head and felt that it was too troublesome. Suddenly remembered something, and said: "Grandpa, such a big house, and you still have to hire so many servants, is my money enough?" He is now a sixth-rank martial arts official, and he has a lot of false positions, and he has more than 100 yuan of money every month, rewards, and subsidies, and he has more than 100 yuan in a single place, so if he wants to maintain such a large-scale house, I am afraid it is still not enough.

Yang Yizhong stroked his palms and laughed when he heard this: "At least you can think of this, it's really good." It is a little difficult for you to maintain such a large family, but ......" He turned around, took a few more booklets from the bookshelf, and handed them to Yang Yan: "These are some land deeds, including 1,000 acres of land given to you by the emperor, and I will give you another 2,000 acres of land, a total of 3,000 acres." are all in the suburbs of Lin'an, and with the income from these fields, the expenses in your house are enough. ”

Yang Yan knew that due to a period of chaos after the southern crossing, the generals of the army used the army to occupy the fields. In order to pull the generals, the court turned a large number of official fields into their private fields in the way of giving fields. Almost every general occupies a large amount of land, such as the land of Wang Zhangjun's family as much as more than 200,000 mu, and the annual land rent alone can be as high as 600,000 stones, which is higher than the annual land rent income of Shaoxing Mansion. After Han Shizhong, the king of Jin, retired, he also purchased a large amount of land, totaling more than 30,000 acres. Yang Yizhong has been an official for the longest time among the generals, and over the years, his family's land has also reached 70,000 or 80,000 mu. When her daughter Yang Chaoying got married, she used to offer porridge with 1,000 acres of fertile land in Kunshan County, known as "Porridge Rice Village". Among the generals, only Yue Fei was the most incorruptible, and when his home was raided, his family only had 700 acres of paddy fields and 1,100 acres of dry land.

Yang Yan didn't expect that he would suddenly become a landlord with 3,000 acres of land. If you marry Zhao Qianru, the number of fields will probably increase. Although he himself does not have too high a pursuit of material life, but thinking that Zhao Qianru is a princess, Jin Ye Yuye, marrying himself, he can't ask her to accompany him to live such a plain and simple life.

Yang Yizhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, the matter is all dealt with, and I can go to Jiankang with peace of mind the day after tomorrow." When I come back, your mansion will probably be almost finished, and you should be married to the princess at that time. ”

Yang Yan's face turned red and said, "Grandpa, you go to Jiankang this time, but you have to take care of yourself, there are no eyes on the battlefield, everything must be careful." ”

Yang Yizhong said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's not the first time Grandpa has been on the battlefield, and this time it's just to Jiankang Mansion, it's still far from the battlefield!" When I'm not at home, you have to be careful in everything you do, and don't cause trouble. Be patient in all things, and don't make mistakes. In case one is accidentally caught and I am not at home, it will be difficult to clean up. ”

Yang Yan nodded and said, "I know." ”

Yang Yizhong said: "Okay, it's not too early, go back and rest!" ”

Yang Yan left Yang Yizhongfu, returned to the Dongjin Courtyard where he lived, and when he entered the house, he saw Tassel sitting under the lamp, sewing clothes. Yang Yan suddenly felt that he didn't care too little about tassels. She may not be as eye-catching as Zhao Qianru, but she has always been by her side, silently taking care of her daily life, but she has almost no requirements for herself. With his current conditions, he can buy a few waiting girls to come back and make her live a better life.

While thinking, Yang Yanji walked into the house. As soon as Tassel saw him come in, he put down the work in his hand and got up and said, "Brother, you're back." ”

Yang Yan gently grabbed her slender waist and said, "Tassel, let's buy a few girls and wait for you."

Tassel was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Brother, why do you suddenly want to buy a girl back." ”

Yang Yan said: "Just now my grandfather told me that he wanted to give me the Dongjin Courtyard where we live now as a mansion. The whole thing is going to be renovated, some houses are built, the space is enlarged, and a garden with a small lake is to be built. In this way, the house is bigger, and now these people are there to take care of it, and they need to add some people, and by the way, I will buy you a few girls waiting for you! As he spoke, he took out the deed and the deed and handed it to the tassel to keep.

Tassel took the house deed and land deed, and immediately understood that the purpose of rebuilding the mansion was naturally to allow Yang Yan to marry the princess. Although when she persuaded Yang Yan to agree to be a colt, she didn't expect to be Yang Yan's wife again, but at this time she still felt a desolation in her heart: Yang Yan was about to marry the princess.

Yang Yan also noticed the strangeness of the tassel. said: "You said, you want a few girls to wait for you, and in a few days ask Uncle Quan to bring it back and let you choose it yourself, okay?" ”

Tassel said: "I don't need anyone to wait, as long as I can stay by my brother's side for the rest of my life, I just ask my brother and the princess to let me after they get married, and it is enough to serve my brother." ”

Yang Yan was slightly stunned, only then did he realize that he had never made it clear to the tassel, and couldn't help but blame himself for being too careless, gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "In my heart, only you are the most important, no one can compare with you, even Princess Yongning." Therefore, you are my wife like her, and I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance. ”

Tassel rested his head on his shoulder and said, "I...... I ......" his voice choked up, and some were speechless.

Yang Yan said again: "Don't worry, in fact, Princess Yongning is very good, and you will definitely be able to get along well in the future." ”
