This year's festival is particularly lively because of the night market of the New Year, and on the day of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, it is even more that the fire trees and silver flowers never sleep, and the entire Shangjing City is shrouded in laughter.

After the Shangyuan Festival, the emperor's holiday ended and began to go to the court, and on the first day, Xiao Jiuqi was called to be the door god, and the court began to talk about the brocade workshop jointly organized by the court and merchants.

Chaotang suddenly blew up the pot.

Even with Xiao Jiuqi, the black-faced door god, he didn't stop the surging saliva of the courtiers.

Fu Yuanling didn't know what was going on in the court, and was looking at the account books sent by Yuan Zhi, from the opening of the night market in the new year to the end of the night market on the Shangyuan Festival.

Fu Yuanling looked at the general ledger made by Yuan Zhi with the account room overnight, the entire five major night markets in Shangjing, with a total of 760,000 taels of silver, excluding the cost and the merchant's money, Fu Yuanling had 200,000 taels in the account.

It's not a lot of money, but it's only the first year, and it's a good start.

Fu Yuanling closed the account book, looked at Yuan Zhi and said, "Thank you for your hard work, give everyone a red seal." ”

Yuan Zhi agreed with a smile, looked at the eldest girl and replied: "Seeing that spring is coming, our painting boat business will be booming when spring begins." This year, several painting shops have been opened in Beijing, which still has an impact on Jingchun Fang. ”

Good business, everyone will compete to do it.

Fu Yuanling is not worried, after all, Jingchun Boat is a plaque written by the saint himself, and those who like to row noodles must choose Jingchun Boat first, such as those whose families are not very wealthy, they may choose other cheaper painting boats.

The Fu family will not do all the business, and they have to save soup for others to drink, so they don't take it to heart.

The master and servant talked about business for a while, and finally Fu Yuanling looked at Yuan Zhi, "Yuanli should be back soon, and you will still be in charge of Jingchunfang's affairs at that time, and I have other arrangements over there." ”

Yuan Zhi smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to the big girl." ”

Fu Yuanling looked at her with a smile, "Yuanli's marriage has been decided, what about you, do you have anyone you like?" ”

Yuan Zhi's face flushed, "No, I listen to the girl." ”

Fu Yuanling glanced at Yuan Zhi, "If you have something you like to tell me, it's okay, as long as the character is passable, I won't stop you." ”

"There are really no slaves, anyway, I will marry whichever the big girl asks me to marry." Yuan Zhi said good-naturedly.

"Okay, I'll take a look for you, and if there's a good one, you'll come and see."

Yuan Zhi responded with a smile, and Jingchun Fang had a mess, and left in a hurry without staying long.

Fu Yuanling sat for a long time, then got up and went to the garden to take a look, and by the way went to see Fan Daru and his wife, because she was pregnant, she went back to her parents' house this year and only stayed in Bofu for a while before coming back, I really didn't want to see Fu Xuanyi's face.

I don't know what Fu Xuanyi thinks, I also went back to my parents' house this year, and I went back to Bofu quite early, and the posture seemed to be waiting for her.

Fu Yuanling didn't give her a chance to talk to her alone, only said hello to Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Eldest Lady, gave a New Year's gift, and left after a brief sitting.

The eldest lady didn't keep her, and she knew in her heart that Fu Yuanling and Fu Xuanyi were not on good terms, except for sighing, Mrs. Tai didn't mean to make peace.

However, Mrs. Fan was afraid that Fu Yuanling would feel lonely, so she had nothing to do with a book to talk to her and read a book, which was also a good time with the New Year.

Fan Daru went to study at home, although he didn't teach much, but when he had time, he would go over to give him some advice, and when he came back, he ordered a few smart children with Fu Yuanling and asked her to train them well.

Mrs. Fan asked Fu Yuanling to sit down, and said with a smile: "If you have nothing to do, just come out and go around, you can eat more." ”

"What you're saying is that I'm going to walk around in the morning and afternoon now." Fu Yuanling said with a smile.

"There's a letter from the academy, asking us to go back to the academy." Madame Fan spoke softly.

Fu Yuanling was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "Then what do you and Mr. think?" ”

If the academy really settles down, and Fan Daru wants to go back, Fu Yuanling will not stop him.

"If I don't go back, I'm getting older, and I can't teach the students regularly when I go back. Moreover, although the matter between the academy and the Guozijian has been cleared, Mr. always feels that he has affected the academy, and he may not know what will happen next time, or just that. Mrs. Fan looked at Fu Yuanling's belly, "Besides, after the landing of this in your belly, Enlightenment will be sent to us in the future, which can be regarded as just letting your husband have a sustenance." ”

Fu Yuanling didn't want Fan Daru to teach her children, but really felt that they should be busy all their lives.

Teaching and educating people is still very draining in the face of so many students.

Fu Yuanling thought for a while, looked at Mrs. Fan and said: "If Mr. feels reluctant, it is better to call a few outstanding students to come to the palace every month to ask for homework and guidance. ”

is like Fu Yuanbin, who often comes to Mr. to do chores, Fu Yuanbin comes every three or five days, and he doesn't want to disturb Fu Yuanling's fetal care, so he enters and exits through the side door specially opened for Fan Daru and his wife, and occasionally brings some food for Fu Yuanling that the third lady and the eldest lady let him bring.

Mrs. Fan thinks this is good, she doesn't have to work too hard, and she can still have something to do.

Fu Yuanling sat for a while and then got up to say goodbye, knowing that Mrs. Fan liked to restore ancient books, and she didn't bother her too much, so she came over to see if they were comfortable.

When Fu Yuanling returned to the main courtyard, she saw Xiao Jiuqi sitting in the room with a black face, she raised her eyebrows and walked in, looked at him and asked, "I came back so early, and I see if things are not going well?" ”

Xiao Jiuqi watched Fu Yuanling lift the curtain and come in, got up and walked over to help her sit down.

"I don't have much stomach right now, it's fine."

Fu Yuanling couldn't help but sit down next to Xiao Jiuqi with a smile and laughter, and seeing that his expression was still not good, he knew that the matter was more serious than he imagined.

"A group of old stubborns who are eating vegetarian meals!" Xiao Jiuqi scolded hatefully.

Fu Yuanling was not surprised, looked at Xiao Jiuqi and said, "As expected, what did the emperor say in the court?" ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jiuqi's expression eased, "Father didn't say that the Fu family was going to do this as soon as he opened his mouth, but threw the matter out first and let them choose someone." ”

Fu Yuanling didn't expect the emperor to be so kind, so he said with a smile: "It must be a bad choice, after all, this kind of errand is not easy to do, the court only produces a piece of land, and the merchants have to contribute money and efforts, and finally give half of the score to the court, basically there are few merchants who revitalize such a business, and even if they do, they don't dare to take risks." ”

It's not that you can't see the benefits, but you start to invest too much money, a whole weaving workshop industry chain to get down, millions of taels of silver is a lot of money for any big merchant, once it is damaged, it is a break to the bones, a careless is likely to be swallowed by other merchants.

Xiao Jiuqi didn't say anything when he heard this, turned his head to look at Fu Yuanling, and saw that she had lost some weight, and felt a little guilty in his heart, "I heard Mama You say that you started morning sickness, how are you now?" ”
