Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 272 Discipline

For the next three days, all the stalls will move to the temporary stalls in Guihua Garden in the west of the city. As for the items to be sold, in addition to the original food, there will also be freshly baked mooncakes of various kinds. Although these mooncakes are sold in Hua Qianbian Shop, customers in the west of the city may not know that.

Even if they knew, they might not be willing to travel so far to Dongcheng District to buy them. So they took this opportunity to promote their own mooncakes, which would also be beneficial for future sales.

In addition, you should also bring peach leaf talcum powder, mint ointment, jasmine ointment, etc., as well as a toothbrush, goose feather fan and various soaps. You should know that the ointment was only recently launched, so you still need to actively promote it to expand your customer base.

It's just that one group of mule carts sells food, and another group sells mint ointments and the like, to avoid mixed flavors. In addition, Hualei also arranged a few mule carts for Auntie Song's wontons and steamed buns, thinking that some customers might need a bowl of soupy wontons for lunch, but they only brought a few more long wooden benches, so there were only one or two tables.

Therefore, Hualei's fancy stall truck was prepared again in full swing. As for the details, Tian Xiaofu and Tian Xiaoxian would naturally solve them, and he would not participate.

The next day, the weather was clear and the autumn breeze was refreshing. As soon as the morning hour came, Rong Jue came to Xiao Yuan's yard, urging Xiao Yuan to get up and wash up, eager to go out and play. Hua Lei also wanted to join in the fun and see how the ancient Mid-Autumn Festival was celebrated.

On the other hand, I was thinking that since it was the first day of the osmanthus appreciation activity, how about going to look after the business of my own temporary stall? So I agreed to take them with me last night, and of course, Rong Jin and Zhenzhu also went with me.

The marriage of Zhenzhu and Jiang Yunqi has already gone through the previous procedures, and the wedding date has been set for April next year. Originally, the Jiang family hoped to marry Zhenzhu before the New Year, but the Hou family wanted to keep Zhenzhu for a while.

On the other hand, because of the great victory in Mobei, Lord Pei and Pei Jingyang are likely to return to the capital to meet the emperor, but the specific date of return has not been determined, so after discussing with the Jiang family, the date was set for next spring.

During this period, Zhenzhu has been confined to her own courtyard to embroider wedding dresses. Although there is not much work that really requires her to do, she still has to do it, so Zhenzhu has not been out to play for a long time. She has also been looking forward to this Mid-Autumn Festival osmanthus appreciation activity for a long time.

At noon, Hualei, Zhenzhu, Feicui, Linlang and other young ladies from the Marquis' Mansion boarded the carriage and headed for the ten-mile osmanthus forest in the west city. Rong Jin, along with Rong Yu, Rong Jue and other brothers from the Marquis' Mansion, rode on horseback.

In the past two years, I heard from Xiaoyuan that Rong Jin had carried out almost devilish training on more than a dozen brothers in the Marquis' Mansion, especially Pei Rongyu from the eldest son's house. Rong Jin not only set up strict training for him, but also tested his skills at the end of every decade.

He also asked about the skills of the other brothers in the Marquis' Mansion. Even if they came back very late from the Imperial College and the other brothers deliberately slept in, he would pull them out of bed and take them to the martial arts training ground to test them. He never slacked off. Once they failed to meet his requirements, they would be doubled in training and punishment, and his own half-brothers were not spared.

Except for a few children from the third room who were not in the Marquis' Mansion, none of the dozen or so boys from the other rooms escaped the net. Although Feng from the eldest room was very distressed at first and went to Rong Jin in person to plead for Pei Rongyu, she was retorted by Pei Rongjin that there must be no cowards among the children of the Marquis' Mansion.

Pei Rongjin not only carried out devilish training on their skills, but also on their schoolwork. He did not require everyone to take the imperial examination, but as the children of the Marquis' Mansion, they had to learn everything they should know and learn everything they should learn. Therefore, he specially invited a few more teachers to teach in the Marquis' Mansion.

If you want to slack off while living in the Imperial College, it's no use. Pei Rongjin asked the shadow guards around him to keep an eye on them one by one. If anyone slacks off, not only will you not be able to take your monthly salary, but you will also have to kneel in the ancestral hall of the Marquis' Mansion and not be able to eat or sleep.

At first, the brothers in the Marquis' Mansion couldn't stand it. Some pretended to be sick, some cried to their mothers, and some begged for mercy in front of Madam Pei. But in the end, none of them escaped Pei Rongjin's clutches, and they were trained even more.

Over time, they could no longer resist and could only obey. So after more than half a year, these boys found that their spirits had improved unconsciously, their skills had improved, their grades had improved, and they were more confident. Gradually, they formed a habit and began to train and study on their own initiative. So at this time, all the young men in the marquis' mansion were riding on their horses, with their shoulders straight, their bodies upright, and their spirits high and full of confidence.

Of course, Xiao Yuan also did not escape Rong Jin's clutches. Xiao Yuan's riding skills are now very good. Since receiving the pony sent by Marquis Pei, Xiao Yuan has been practicing consciously. The guards sent by Marquis Pei often teach Xiao Yuan various riding skills. On holidays, Rong Jin would take him and the children of the Marquis' Mansion to practice riding in the suburbs, so he made rapid progress.

In addition, over the past year, Bai Yunhe would send Xiaoyuan pills to regulate his body every month, and Mrs. Pei would occasionally ask the palace doctor to check Xiaoyuan's pulse and regulate his body, so Xiaoyuan's body became much stronger and his height increased a lot. At this time, riding on his own horse, following Hualei's carriage, he had become a decent little boy.

Although Pei Rongjin did not treat the girls in the Marquis' Mansion as excessively as he did the boys, they were still required to run exercises for 25 minutes and learn various weapons for 25 minutes every afternoon after returning from the girls' school.

In addition to the normal learning of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, Rong Jin also asked Mrs. Pei to invite the shopkeepers of the Marquis's shop and the head of the farm to come from time to time to teach these girls the experience of managing the shop and farm. They were not allowed to skip classes. Once they were found to have skipped classes, the dowry given by the Marquis's mansion would be less than that of others. It can be said that this strangled the throats of the wives and girls of the Marquis's mansion.

But Madam Pei not only did not object, but also actively cooperated, so even if the wives and daughters of the several rooms were angry, they dared not speak out. After all, the dowry of the girl was very important, and if she was bullied in her husband's family after she got married, the attitude held by Pei Rongjin, the next person in charge of the Marquis's Mansion, represented the attitude of her family.

They all need Pei Rongjin's support and protection. After all, although what they are learning now is hard, it is indeed very beneficial to themselves. They can see this clearly.
