127 Chapter 127
Chonglan's big and small trivial matters are almost handled, and it is rare to have a free day, these days I only wander around the house, and the most brain-consuming thing every day is what to eat three times a day, and I don't have a leisurely life.
She is idle here, but Qi Guofu and a few old people sent by Qi Guofu are anxious to scratch their lungs, when they first entered the mansion, only Chonglan married three stewards and stewards, and later promoted three old people sent from Wufang, two became stewards, and one became deputy stewards.
They thought that they could rely on their qualifications to be a manager's errand, but they didn't expect this young lady to be good, and after promoting three of the five rooms, they didn't care about them anymore, these days the promotion to the deputy steward and the small steward are all newly bought, and the oil and water are abundant, they almost didn't blush, and hurriedly sent a letter to Qi Guofu.
The old lady Yan in the house came to talk once, but she was coaxed back by Chonglan's words, and these people became more and more anxious, so they simply handed over the message to the young lady and asked to see the young lady.
When the Tian family came in, the young lady was grooming, and all the maids and women below were silent, and only the two big maids who looked quite pampered dared to laugh beside her.
Chonglan put her aside, turned her head to Qingge and said: "I used the 'little pink' I bought a few months ago, the color on my face is excellent, I can't use fat powder recently, I have rewarded you when I go back, and you can also take it back and use it." ”
Qingge said with a smile: "The little peach is brightly colored, only the young lady can use such a good color, and Qingyun and I are ugly." ”
Chonglan touched his increasingly pale face: "I've been loving light-colored ones lately, what do you think?" ”
The Tian family was a little breathless, and hurriedly said with a smile: "The young lady looks good in any color, just like the poem says, 'light makeup and heavy makeup are always appropriate', the main thing is to look good." ”
Qingyun saw that she was unruly, and opened her mouth to reprimand, but Chonglan waved her hand to stop her.
As if she had just seen the Tian family, she turned her head and asked, "Mama has sent me a message to see me, is there anything important?" ”
The Tian family stepped forward and smiled: "It's just that I haven't seen the young lady for a long time, come and say hello to the young lady." ”
Chonglan waved his hand: "In that case, you have also seen the people, and you have also invited An, let's go back, I still have something to do later." ”
The Tian family's face tightened, and they didn't dare to beat around the bush, so they bowed down and said: "The old lady is afraid that the young lady will come to the new mansion, and it will be inevitable that things will be busy, so she specially sent a few of us to help the young lady, but these days we have been idle in the west courtyard and have nothing to do, so we came to ask the young lady if there is anything that can use a few of us?" ”
Chonglan glanced at her: "I remember that Steward Chen didn't assign you an errand to manage the empty house, how can you call it nothing to do?" ”
The Tian family was stunned, and their hands couldn't help but clench a little: "Yes... The slave maid didn't do this in the first place, and it was inevitable that there would be some negligence in taking care of the empty house..."
Chonglan sighed and glanced at her with a smile: "It turns out that you want to change errands." ”
Seeing her smiling, the Tian family thought that there was a door for this matter, and they were overjoyed, and their voices raised slightly: "The slave maid used to be the deputy steward in the house, and it is really impossible to take care of the empty house, and I am afraid that I will be entrusted by the old lady, and I hope that you..."
Chonglan saw that she stopped talking, so she slowly retracted her gaze and calmly put down the rhino horn comb in her hand: "It seems that you have not saved a lot of grievances these days, since you asked, then let's call people up, let's make it clear." ”
Qingge directly invited the Tian family down, and Chonglan changed his clothes and got up: "After so many days, it's time to meet, let's go." ”
She deliberately slowed down her pace to the main hall, and sure enough, when she came, the subordinates who were still a little bit of a head had already stood up, and when they saw her walk in, they all kowtowed to greet Madame.
Chonglan took a closer look and found that these people were really divided into two sides, one side was the newcomer who had just been bought, and the other side was the newcomer sent by Qi Guofu.
She sat down with her skirt, Qingge brought tea up, and she said slowly: "Today is the first time I have seen you, and I won't say much about it, I know what you care about most, I am here today to say a word, as long as you can do things for the house with peace of mind, I will not miss your benefits." ”
The maid at the bottom didn't expect this housewife to be so crisp and transparent, and when she was stunned, her face immediately burst with joy, and she kowtowed and said yes.
Chonglan smiled, raised her hand to let them get up, suddenly her face froze, and she smiled: "Today, a grandmother came to look for me, saying that I didn't assign them a good errand, there are so many people in our house, if there is a gap in my heart, it will not be good to be an errand in the future, I will make things clear here today, so as to save someone from coming over and pressing me with an old lady." ”
The Tian family's complexion changed, and they couldn't help but speak: "Young lady Mingjian, the slave maid is afraid of being entrusted by the old lady, and she is afraid, so she opened her mouth to ask, and she didn't mean anything else. ”
She paused, and there seemed to be a little envy in her eyes: "Besides, those newly purchased people don't know the roots better than the old man, and the slave maid was worried that the young lady would be deceived, so she had the cheekiness to open this mouth." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a commotion in the main hall, Chonglan swept over, and the tea cup in her hand was served, and everyone lowered their heads, not daring to say more.
Chonglan turned to the newly promoted housekeeper and asked in a harmonious voice, "I remember that you also took care of the empty house at the beginning, how did you do it?" ”
The lady in charge straightened her back and said in a loud voice: "Back to the young lady, it was all cleaned up by the slave maid herself, there was nothing wrong, the floor of the empty house was clean and new, and you also rewarded the slave maid with a tael of silver for this at the beginning." ”
Chonglan nodded approvingly, and turned to the Tian family again, his face lightened a lot: "You are also doing this errand, how are you doing?" ”
The Tian family's face turned blue and white, and they bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.
Chonglan sneered: "I went to the back of a few empty courtyards at random, the screen embroidery frame was gnawed by rats, insects and ants, the vase ornaments didn't know how many were broken, and the thick ash on the ground was about to bury people, are you embarrassed to come with me to ask for an errand?" "How big a face does this have to be?
The Tian family didn't expect Chonglan to look at an idle and lazy beauty, but in fact, everything existed in his heart, just waiting to be saved up and attacked, he couldn't help but panic in his heart, or relying on the support of Mrs. Yan, he argued: "The slave has never done this errand, it's really..."
Qingyun endured it for a long time, and after listening to her, she couldn't help but scold: "Didn't I say Mama, you didn't do it and went to learn until you learned it, you don't know this truth at such an old age?" Do you still have to be the master's accommodation, and we can't do it?! ”
Chonglan had a shallow smile on her lips: "It's okay if Mama really can't learn, why don't I send you back to the house, and then come to help me when you learn it, I want to come and grandmother also agree, how about it?" ”
The Tian family's face turned pale, and his body trembled and fell to his knees and did not dare to speak.
She swept over the people who came up from the mansion with seniority and liked to cause trouble the most, and said coldly: "I won't go into detail about the errands you have done, the damaged objects will be compensated according to the price, and the errands that are delayed by quarrels and quarrels will also be deducted from the monthly money, if you make a big mistake, you will be punished, don't blame me for not giving anyone dignity!" ”
She glanced at the surprise on everyone's faces, and gathered the shawl on her body: "And... Since you have the monthly money I sent, don't mention how the original master is, I, the most taboo person is in Cao Ying's heart in Han. ”
She turned to the chief steward and said indifferently: "I'm done with what I'm going to say, you should play the board, you should deduct the monthly money, and everything will follow the rules." ”
The manager has been very angry by these people these days, but in the way of the backers behind them, he didn't dare to really punish him, and now he finally got the right words, and began to rectify with a disgusting smile on his face.
Chonglan has endured it these days without having a seizure, just waiting for it to be rectified together, so that all the faces of these people will be cleaned, and they will not have to shout in the house again.
There are a few people in Yan Ning's courtyard who probably think that this is not a serious master, and he is a concubine, and he is deliberately slow to treat him, asking for tea and water half a beat late, and gossiping behind his back, saying that he 'is not like talking in his brother-in-law's house as a little uncle' and 'I don't know how to please the young lady' Yunyun.
Yan Ning's mind was rough and she didn't realize it, but Chonglan was furious when she found out, and punished her hard, she was ruthless this time, and she didn't give her the slightest chance, she directly hit the board and sold it, and from then on, the house was in order, and she didn't dare to make a fuss again.
But there are no offenses, but there are a lot of people who are too aggressive, and many people sharpen their heads and want to come to the main courtyard, wanting to serve Chonglan and Yan He, but Yan He has to be on duty, and he doesn't stay in the mansion much, so they have to show their faces in front of Chonglan in a variety of ways.
Chonglan felt quite fresh a few days ago, after all, it is a good thing to be diligent and progressive, and besides, most of these people are newcomers, and it is common for them to be in a hurry to make some achievements, but after a few days, they were praised for their numb scalp, and they couldn't stand it.
She was overwhelmed, but she was afraid of reprimanding and reducing the enthusiasm of these people on errands, so she simply summoned Qingge over and said a few words in her ear.
Qingge hesitated after hearing this: "Can you say this... Be careful that the young master is not happy to hear it. ”
Chonglan waved his hand: "Don't worry about spreading the word boldly, the young master has me to say it." ”
Qingge nodded in response, and within half a day, rumors came out of the mansion, saying that the young master was one foot tall and his voice was like a copper bell
The lady in charge straightened her back and said in a loud voice: "Back to the young lady, it was all cleaned up by the slave maid herself, there was nothing wrong, the floor of the empty house was clean and new, and you also rewarded the slave maid with a tael of silver for this at the beginning." ”
