Chapter 116: Various Personnel

Sang Zi was stunned for a moment and said, "I just came back, what is he doing?"

Xu Wanzhen thought for a moment, and had a rough guess in her heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Xu Le'an went to return the carriage, he should have heard something from Du Caizhi, and said, "Let him in." ”

Sang Zi opened the curtain, and Xu Le'an replied respectfully: "I've seen the eldest lady, and the villain has something to do." After that, he glanced at Sang Zi.

Xu Wanzhen nodded, Sang Zi understood, and went to the door to guard the door of the house.

"Eldest Miss, Cui Sleeve is the personal maid of the second miss of the Tu family, and she is Du Caizhi's sister-in-law. This matter was instigated by Miss Tu and instigated by Miss Tu. Let Cui Sleeve pass the word to Du Caizhi, and use his hands and feet on the horse, intending to let us go out today without horses, and give the eldest lady a dismount. Xu Le'an said a few words, and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

Xu Wanzhen held a cup of hot tea in her hand and said slowly: "It seems that although I have no intention, I still obstruct the eyes of others." In that case, I don't have to be polite. Then Du Caizhi said it so clearly, what are the conditions?"

"Because of this morning, Cui Sleeve was smashed by Miss Tu Er and fainted. Du Caizhi felt sorry for his sister-in-law, and wanted to ask the young lady to take a shot and replace Cui Sleeves with 'Wen Hanju'. Xu Le'an said: "He said, if you can do it, only the eldest lady will be the first to look forward to it in the future." ”

"Did he say which yard he wanted to go to?"

"That's not true. ”

The fragrance of the tea is refreshing, and the warm heat is transmitted into the palm of the hand, helping Xu Wanzhen to think. Du Caizhi is undoubtedly useful, but Cui Sleeve is Tu Manzhen's personal maid, a slave who grew up with her.

If it is a little maid, I believe that if she speaks, the Lin family will be willing to fulfill it. But going to ask the eldest girl in my cousin's house is a bit shameless. Don't say that you are still relatives of your relatives, even if you are good friends, you can't do this. This matter is urgent, and it must be considered in the long run.

Xu Wanzhen said: "You go and reply to Du Caizhi, I should take this matter, but I will not come in a hurry for a while." ”

The villain understood, and told him about it. He also understands the difficulty. Xu Le'an replied.

Today's dinner was still late, but fortunately, Xu Wanzhen had prepared early, and on the way back, she instructed Xu Le'an to buy enough wine and food, and did not delay the meal at all.

After the meal, Xu Wanzhen beckoned the cook Feng Xingjia to come and ask.

"Miss, the muddy water in the kitchen, such as the stove, ceiling, and bellows, has been repaired, and there is still a shortage of pots and pans, chopping boards and other cooking utensils to be purchased. ”

Xu Wanzhen frowned and said, "These purchases should be started in advance today." Why did you come? I didn't ask you to come, when are you going to see me?"

Feng Xing's family didn't dare to speak, when he was in Suzhou, the kitchen was managed by Xu Dayou's family. Mrs. Xu was sympathetic and asked Xu Dayou's family to look at the old house in Suzhou. She made authentic Jiangnan cuisine, so she picked her to go to Beijing together.

However, she had never done anything in charge, and although she knew what things to do, she did not dare to go up and disturb them when she saw that her masters were going out early in the morning. She was a little afraid of things, and she wanted to delay it until tomorrow, but she was called by the eldest lady for questioning.

Seeing her like this, Xu Wanzhen said coldly: "Let you be in charge of the kitchen, and you will have to take this responsibility." If the kitchen is not good for a day, there will be no hot food in the yard for a day. You don't understand the reason?"

Feng Xingjia's face was lowered, and he said in a low voice: "Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong. ”

"A fine of one month's money, the kitchen matter, for the time being, you are still in charge. If you don't dare to take responsibility, there are others. Xu Wanzhen said: "Sang Zi, take the right cards to her, and go to Biluo to pay fifty taels of silver." Tomorrow morning, I will go shopping. ”

"Don't worry, the slave knows. After being reprimanded, Feng Xing's family woke up.

Xu Wan said with a real face: "The matter of Qingzhuyuan, no matter how big or small, you need to reply to me in time." The kitchen is your business, don't be afraid to take responsibility, even if you do something wrong, I have a chance to make amends. But if you deceive your superiors and subordinates, don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings!"

Feng Xing's family knew the temperament of the eldest lady, and said busily: "Slave and maid remember." ”

Seeing that she listened, Xu Wanzhen softened her tone and said, "If I'm not there, I'll look for Sangzi or Yulu, but I must not let my grandmother worry about it." Give you one last day, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, we're going to have a home-cooked meal. ”

After disposing of Feng Xing's family, Xu Wan couldn't help but have a headache. At present, she needs to make ideas about all the big and small things.

In her previous life, how could she have dealt with so many things at the same time? The piano practice day after day was boring, monotonous, and repetitive. The biggest concern is whether the audience is satisfied with the performance. The daily chores of the family, I only need to talk about it, and I have my own housekeeper to arrange it. For solo concerts, there are also assistants arranged by parents to take care of matters such as venues, tickets, guests, etc.

Recalling the past, Xu Wanzhen couldn't help but smile bitterly, she was so useless. In the Gaomang Dynasty, it was not easy to be a woman from a large family. Female celebrity cooking skills are the basic kung fu, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are the icing on the cake, and the master is the top priority.

And to manage an inner house well, it involves all aspects, not just to get things done. The human contacts, the face of each room, and the thoughts and temperaments of the servants must be carefully considered, so that people can not make mistakes. The first two things are okay, but the latter involves personnel management, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Xu Wanzhen, who has never managed people in her life.

Sang Zi saw her frowning and thinking, knowing her habits, she went down lightly and made a pot of hot tea, poured a cup and put it in her palm, and stood quietly by her side.

It was getting dark, and Sang Zi took the lamp. Mama Zheng came to prepare a bath for Xu Wanzhen, and when she saw her pondering, she gestured to Sang Zi and stepped back by herself.

After a long time, Xu Wanzhen woke up from her contemplation and said, "Bring a pen and paper." ”

Sang Zi brought her usual quill pen and rice paper, and Xu Wanzhen listed the matters she had just thought about clearly on the paper as "light, heavy, slow, and urgent".

The reflection just now reminded her of a lecture she had heard in modern times, on how to control the allocation of time, which can be used in combination with the current situation.

Xu Wanzhen picked up the pen and wrote four major items on the paper: important things, urgent things, important and urgent things, and things that can be handled quickly.

In each of these major items, the corresponding transactions are written. After thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt that the mess at the moment was much clearer.

1. Important thing: Rescue your father and brother, and the whereabouts of Cui Sleeve.

2. Urgent matters: the kitchen opens on its own, the disposal of the painting fan, pays tribute to the two ladies of the Tu family, and increases the manpower everywhere.

3. Important and urgent matters: visit the princess and find out the hidden facts of the case.

Fourth, things that can be quickly handled: improve the furnishings of each room in Qingzhuyuan and change the use of the room.

After writing this page, Xu Wanzhen nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Sang Zi, this page is a treasure, you take good care of it." ”

"A piece of paper, why is it a baby?" asked Sang Zi curiously.

Mama Zheng heard it outside and answered, "What kind of treasure is so amazing? (To be continued.) )
