Chapter 125: Make a Contribution
Mother Zhou nodded, and Mother Xu said, "You and the rest of you should go out and get busy, there's nothing to do with you here." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Those who hadn't been out of Yixin Courtyard for a while were all relieved, and they went out in line.
The seven people who stayed behind were a little nervous, and they didn't want to leave Yixin Hospital.
Working in Yixin Hospital, although tired, is relatively comfortable.
They don't need to think about intrigue, and they don't need to think about which steward to talk to today and which girl to talk to tomorrow.
There is no such thing as a steward or a girl bullying people in Yixin Hospital.
Mother Xu and Miss Xianglan, who were in charge of them, saw that everyone's food was not good, and they would give their own money to everyone for tooth sacrifices.
Eight grandmothers are doing things, and Mother Xu will stop them all.
For other yards, not to mention anything else, just the food given to the housekeeper's mother and the housekeeper girls every month is a lot of money.
And now the entire Xidong is a province and can no longer be saved.
All of Xi Dong's silver was tossed out by the Tenth Master, which is something that everyone knows.
In order to make up money, the eighth grandmother saves money everywhere, and all the subordinates of Xidong can only take the lowest monthly silver, and the eighth grandmother doesn't care how much you do.
Now, except for the masters, who have not reduced their food and clothing, everyone else is tightening their clothes and food.
The eighth grandmother said, "Everyone is the son of Xidong's family, and they have all become families and established businesses by relying on Xidong over the years, and some have even purchased a lot of industries outside." Xi Dong raises you and protects you, and now that Xi Dong is in danger, you don't need to do anything, just help more. ”
Then the entire Xidong subordinates all ate meals without oil and water, plus they had to do some work to supplement the daily expenses of the Dong family.
If you have good craftsmanship, you can do embroidery, and if you don't have good craftsmanship, you can go to the soles.
The people of the eighth grandmother have to collect it once every ten days, and if they can't finish it, they can take silver to top it.
Whether it was the people left in Feng's courtyard or the people left behind by Grandma Ten, they all had to follow the rules she set.
Not to mention these people, even Aunt Gui's grandmother, the eighth master, and the tenth master's aunt have to do it.
During this period, someone also handed the words to the second wife.
The second lady said: "These white-eyed wolves, Xi Dong is in difficulty now, but they are not missing their monthly money. Now it's just that there is less silver, less use, and some embroidery work for them. If they don't want to do this, they will ask someone to sell their teeth and the whole family, and whoever will let them go to whom's house. Xidong can't afford such gods and Buddhas. ”
With the words of the second wife, all the people in Xidong shut up and stopped, no matter how bitter they were, they could only endure it, they dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
And the eighth grandmother became more happy and intensified.
She asked Cuiyu next to her to come to Yixinyuan to say that she wanted Yixinyuan to join the ranks of her buddies, after all, the eighth grandmother is not stupid, and she also knows that Sanfang is the richest one in the Dong family.
Cuiyu came to Yixin Courtyard in good spirits, she has been praised by everyone these days and does not know the southeast and northwest.
She is the eighth grandmother's companion, and her own lady has become the wife of the family, and she has done such a big thing, which is a majestic thing for her.
Now don't talk about Yixin Courtyard, even the second master's aunt and grandmother are not also doing embroidery work.
Seeing that the gate of Yixin Courtyard was closed, Cuiyu felt a little unhappy, and the little girl beside her said, "Miss Cuiyu, wait a minute, the slave will go to call the door." ”
The doorkeeper of Yixin Courtyard heard someone calling the door, and asked people to go in to find Xu's mother here, and opened a small door over there, and whispered, "Which girl is calling the door?"
Xiaohong, who called the door, heard someone calling her girl, and happily said to Cuiyu: "Girl, wait a minute, the slave maid will go and see." ”
Xiaohong went to the small door, and the grandmother who guarded the door said: "The slave is new, so I don't know the girl, what is the important thing about the girl?"
Xiaohong said happily: "What girl is not a girl, that is our jade girl, you hurry up and let the steward of your Yixin Courtyard come over, our girl is here to spread the words of the eighth grandmother." ”
Grandma Sun hurriedly said: "Eh, look at me, I don't have long eyes, it turns out to be the jade girl next to the eighth grandmother, you wait a minute, the slave is going back." ”
After she finished speaking, she entered Yixin Courtyard and closed the small door.
Another Wu Pozi who was guarding the door had already asked Xu's mother to come out.
Grandma Sun whispered: "It's the jade next to the eighth grandmother, and she said that she came to spread the words of the eighth grandmother." ”
Mother Xu nodded and let her open the small door.
She walked out alone, saw Cuiyu salute first, and said, "Why bother Cuiyu girl, just send someone over to explain it?"
Cuiyu saw that Xu's mother from Yixin Courtyard came out to greet her in person, and she was a little happy in her heart.
Cuiyu said: "What the master ordered, where did I dare to trouble others, this is not to take advantage of the fact that the weather is not hot, so I came over." ”
Mother Xu said: "Yes, yes, what the girl said is." What does the eighth grandmother have to tell the slaves?"
Cuiyu was just about to speak, when it suddenly occurred to her that this person wouldn't want to let her say it here.
Cuiyu was a little unhappy, she looked at Mother Xu like this, and Mother Xu didn't look at her, just lowered her head, looking like she was waiting for orders.
Xiaohong on the side interjected: "This is not the place to talk, I think it is better to go in and talk." ”
Mother Xu looked embarrassed, first looked around, and then said secretly: "It's not that the slave and maid are talking about the right and wrong behind the master's back, since the tenth master came to Yixin Courtyard (to grab the silver), our young lady was frightened, since then the gate of Yixin Courtyard is not allowed to open, everyone can only open the small doors on both sides when they enter and exit, and not only that, everyone in our Yixin Courtyard can't go out at will, unless they don't go out, it's good to go out to do things." Even if people from other courtyards want to come to Yixin Courtyard, they can't be put into the courtyard. Don't you know, my aunt's cousin came to look for me last time, and I also talked about the time of half a pillar of incense outside this door, and I really can't let you know the master's intentions. ”
Cuiyu and Xiaohong were stupid, although it was quite scary for the tenth master to come to rob the silver, but this was too much.
Xiaohong whispered: "Girl, what she said should be true, the people in Yixin Courtyard are really good to walk around the garden, especially at this time." ”
When Cuiyu heard this, she said, "Since it was ordered by the master, so be it." The eighth grandmother passed the word, let the slave maid come to order the number of people in Yixin Courtyard, and every ten days in the future, I will ask Xiaohong to come over to collect the embroidery work of one head and three handkerchiefs, and the eighth grandmother was generous, saying that the masters of Yixin Courtyard were not there, and they did not ask too much. ”
After Cuiyu finished speaking, she didn't wait for Xu's mother to agree, and turned her head to leave.
Mother Xu had known about this for a long time, but she didn't think that the words of the second master would not be counted here by the eighth grandmother, but the second master said that no one was allowed to ask about Yixin Courtyard.
