Chapter 25 Seizure of Power
Mu Tianxiang was stunned, she never thought it would be such an answer.
From the very beginning, she believed that this spicy fruit was brought into the mansion by Xie Fugui and others in a way to do so.
Thinking that when Uncle Jiang told the truth, she could also take the opportunity to have a seizure and slap Xie Fugui's face, but she never expected that the spicy fruit in the house was actually her mother's doing.
Although it is a pity to know that the answer is so much, Mu Tianxiang is still a little lucky.
Fortunately, she wanted to ask Uncle Jiang about it, and she didn't have a seizure at that time, otherwise she would not have been the one who was slapped in the face.
That's probably what it means to shoot yourself in the foot.
Mu Tianxiang looked at Jiang Bo suspiciously, guessing in his heart that he wouldn't be lying and deceiving himself.
Don't blame her for being suspicious, if she had to blindly trust others here, I'm afraid she would have died a long time ago.
Jiang Bo was able to be a housekeeper in this mansion for twenty years, not only because of Mu Wanqiu's trust in him, but also because he was capable and capable.
So when Mu Tianxiang's face showed a different color, he could naturally guess her thoughts.
He was not annoyed by Mu Tianxiang's suspicions, but because he saw that she had to bear these consequences and responsibilities at such a young age, which did not belong to her age at all.
Mu Tianxiang sat on the main seat, his thoughts were a little messy for a while, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the table, and his eyes occasionally shuttled between Xie Fugui, Jiang Bo and that Wang An.
Then, in a moment, she was open-minded.
Sneering because of his previous thoughts, Mu Tianxiang felt that he was too worried, right and wrong, black and white, some things, destined will not change.
Since her mother can trust Uncle Jiang infinitely, why can't she.
As soon as the tapping action in his hand stopped, Mu Tianxiang suddenly spoke: "Uncle Jiang, let people distribute these spicy fruits, after all, not everyone can stand the taste in our house, and we can't always force others." When you go back, you make a registration, write down the tastes of each yard, and wait for tomorrow, and then arrange for those cooks, and the meals in each yard are made separately, so that everyone doesn't have to endure the dislike of coming here to eat. ”
"But Miss, in this way, there will be more work, the cook will have to add more, and the amount of ingredients will be ......" Uncle Jiang looked embarrassed, the shogunate is rich and good, but the money is used on the blade, if you squander it arbitrarily, I am afraid that there will be one and two, and it will be a lot of expenses after a long time.
"As for the daily expenses, the part that exceeds the previous ones will be deducted from the expenses of the yard. ”
chuckled, Mu Tianxiang commanded, the clouds were light and the wind was light, but it was like thunder.
In the past, Mu Wanqiu arranged for everyone to eat together for the sake of harmony, but in terms of Mufu food, because of the traditional light rules, it could not satisfy everyone's appetite.
So at first, everyone was naturally happy when they heard Mu Tianxiang's arrangement, but this last sentence made them in a dilemma.
In the past, the expenses for dining at the same table were arranged by Mu Wanqiu, and they only ate every month, and they couldn't use the amount in their own yard at all, so that they would have more monthly silver every month, but now that they are separated, they have to bear it themselves, isn't this letting them dig meat on themselves to eat.
"Xiang'er, is this arrangement inappropriate?" Xie Fugui was the first to jump out and raise an objection.
"What's wrong?" Mu Tianxiang tilted his head sideways and squinted at him, with a puzzled expression.
"This ......" Xie Fugui was naturally embarrassed that his pocket money would be reduced, so he made an excuse: "This is the rule set by your mother, we can't say that we will ...... if we break it"
"Since you know it's a rule, why do you want to break it, besides, my mother is already gone. Mu Tianxiang coldly interrupted Xie Fugui's words, and after thinking about it, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and when he looked up again, there was a smile in his eyes: "Speaking of which, since my mother left, I have seen that the yard now seems to be much worse than before, many slaves and maids, slack and casual, not very dedicated to doing things, not to say, but gathered together in groups of three or two, all talking about things that slaves should not talk about, since I am my mother's daughter, I can't let it go unpunished, let it develop like this, don't you say?"
Xie Fugui was stunned, and suddenly felt that his right eye was beating hard, lowered his eyes, clenched his fists and replied: "The yard really needs someone to take care of it." ”
"Since you think so, Dad, Xiang'er will take advantage of today to take over those things in her mother's hands. Mu Tianxiang said with a smile.
When Xie Fugui heard this, he immediately looked at Mu Tianxiang with some shock.
"What's the matter, Dad, you seem to have something to say?" Mu Tianxiang happened to see Xie Fugui's dumbfounded appearance, so she asked curiously.
"Uh......" Xie Fugui coughed lightly, and then said to Mu Tianxiang with a smile: "Xiang'er, you are still too young, there are so many things in the house, Dad is worried that you won't be able to bear it, it's better to let Dad help you first." ”
"Dad, my mother took over the affairs of the mansion back then, she was only fifteen years old, younger than me, didn't she take care of the mansion well, besides, the things in this mansion are complicated and tired, why is Xiang'er embarrassed to bother you?" Mu Tianxiang lightly prevaricated Xie Fugui's request, the smile on her face was undiminished, and she turned her head to look at Uncle Jiang and said, "Moreover, Uncle Jiang is the most familiar with things in the house, and he will help me, right?"
"The slave is not talented, if the young lady needs anything, just order Uncle Jiang directly. Jiang Bobi stood aside respectfully and nodded at Mu Tianxiang.
"In this case, if Uncle Jiang thinks that I still have the ability to handle the big and small things of Mufu, is there still a very good account book for the outside shop, and it can also be handed over to me?"
"Xiang'er, this must not be, the matter of the shop, you are a girl's family, how can you say that you will take it over?" At this time, Xie Fugui finally did not calm down, and reminded Mu Tianxiang anxiously: "You have never been exposed to these before, if you are a little careless, you will collapse the shop, but how can it be good?"
Xie Fugui said that it was true, but his heart was punishable, how could Mu Tianxiang not understand his thoughts.
After listening to his mention, Mu Tianxiang was silent for a moment before sighing and laughing: "What my father said is very true, although I have only gone out with my mother before. But she never really taught me how to run a business. ”
Mu Tianxiang's words made Xie Fugui look at her with a pair of eyes, hoping that she could put down the operation of the store in advance.
His expression was too anxious and nervous, which made Mu Tianxiang laugh a little, and then saw her frown, and said with a smile: "In this case, it is better to wait for me to go to Xiangfang to meet with Shopkeeper Pei another day, and have a good discussion, Dudao Shopkeeper Pei's business methods are first-class and his ability is outstanding, maybe Xiang'er can also consider visiting the master and learning some business methods to come back, I believe that with the friendship between my mother and Shopkeeper Pei, if I go to ask him, he will definitely not refuse, and I will definitely be able to learn some knowledge and take care of the shop." ”
Mu Tianxiang's words jumped into Xie Fugui's ears word by word, making him instantly like five thunderbolts, although he knew that it was not easy for her to give up the shop.
But now, Mu Tianxiang actually refuted his words jokingly, which was clearly a provocation and a slap in the face.
