Chapter 265: The people don't sue the officials and don't hold them accountable
Yan Tianyan saw that it was recorded in the account book that the eldest maid had one tael per month, the second-class maid had six yuan, the last three yuan, and two yuan a month. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If half of it is deducted, it is natural that the big girl will lose a lot of money, and she will lose five dollars.
Yunyan didn't know what Yan Qianyan meant by asking like this.
I had to bow my head and reply: "It's very reasonable." ”
She used to be satisfied, but now she .......
Yan looked at her expression and introduced the topic: "The previous regulations are very reasonable. But now it's halved, obviously unreasonable? Why don't you say it? Do you admit it? Does the confession mean that it is reasonable? ”
Even if she wanted to help them, someone had to come forward and ask for it.
There is a saying that the people do not sue the officials and do not hold them accountable.
Yunyan was puzzled, what does the young lady mean?
"Yunyan, since you don't want to, you know that it's unreasonable, you have to fight for it. You can't just take half of your salary. What if you give half less at a time? If you reduce it like this, you won't get paid at all, and you'll do it in vain. Then you might as well go home and help the family do some work. Maybe you can still have time to find a good family, do you say yes? In this way, you go to Qingyan, Meiyan and Yuyan to discuss, and then contact the maids and servants everywhere, and come to me tomorrow. Let's just talk about it. Naturally, Mrs. Ben will give you an explanation. You are all hard-working people, and you earn hard-earned money. The wages are all agreed in advance, and they can only be added and not subtracted, unless they do something wrong. Difficulties in the house are the business of the government itself. Even if there is a problem, it has to ask for your help, not deduct your wages. Also, your wages are not very much, as long as you do not violate the rules of the government, such as stealing hands and feet, committing tongues, and telling right and wrong. Unfaithful to his master. There is no reason for the government to drive you out. ”
Yan Tanyan guided Yunyan bitterly and said what was in his heart. Knowing she has no idea. I didn't dare to fight for it myself, and I was naturally unwilling to do 200 out of 100 in my heart, so I directly explained what I meant.
Yunyan's eyes widened in surprise, the young lady meant to ask her to contact everyone to fight for less wages. Although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't dare to think about these things.
She didn't understand a little: "But young lady, they won't listen to slaves and maids." It is rumored that the third lady and the fourth lady will be punished. ”
This ancient woman is honest and doesn't know how to defend her rights at all.
She kind of hates that iron doesn't make steel.
"You don't know how to go and tell them that I am against reducing your wages, and I want to make your decisions. But opposition is opposition, and no one thinks that opposition is unreasonable and useless, right? The wages are for you, and you don't say what I say. As long as you all come along, I can call the shots. You remember, I am the head of the Mu Mansion. The third lady is only in escrow. ”
"Go ahead, no one should take the lead, but there should be a lot of people. There is great strength in numbers, and the law does not blame the people. ”
"Don't worry, your young lady won't lose anyone. Withholding your wages will make it up for you. ”
Saying this, Yunyan's mood suddenly improved a lot. The money I took was coming back, and with a smile on my face, I walked out with a crisp promise. Wind on the soles of your feet.
Yan Qian smiled as she walked away, smiled, and continued to look down at the ledger.
After taking a closer look again, I found that I only glanced at it just now, and the silver deducted by the third aunt was far less than money. Those who are happy to do black and white, and those who are looking for someone to repair the house and repair the road outside, have expenses every month, and there are quite a few of them. It's also two accounts. Steward Sima recorded fifty taels here, and one hundred taels when he arrived at the third aunt.
Neither account can be reconciled.
Steward Sima's accounts remember very clearly, each stroke is marked with the number of times, even if it is only five or twenty taels, and there are the handprints of the third lady on it. This Sima steward is experienced and cautious, maybe he can't bear to be so embezzled by Mufu's silver, maybe he wants to have a chance to clear himself. Yan Qianyan calculated a little, and the third aunt earned nearly two thousand taels in half a year, which was equal to her own pocket money for twenty years.
It's too greedy, isn't it? If this really made her a home, the shogunate would not be hollowed out by her. Half of the pockets are filled.
It's just that these three aunts seem to be a little wrong, it stands to reason that most people will be very honest and honest in charge of the house, and they will definitely be very serious. After all, it's doing things for others, and reputation is important.
Especially the third aunt, an elder who has never been in charge of the house, should leave the best influence on the princess, grandma and her, who is really the housewife, for the first time.
She closed her eyes and pondered carefully for a long time before she realized that the reason why she was so bold was that she didn't take her seriously, in other words, she looked down on her. I don't think she'll find out about that.
But the third aunt, it's not okay if you don't see it so obviously. Pretend not to see it, and you won't be completely treated as a fool in the future.
She shook her head in thought.
This matter must be handled well, otherwise how will you be the master of the house in the future.
However, this Liu family is the third lady of Mu Mansion, and she is the real master. Asking her to take out the money in her pocket so clearly will make her unable to get off the stage. Mufu is not prosperous now, except for the princess and grandmother. There are only a few people like the third aunt, the fourth aunt, the fourth master, and the fourth young master, Mu Hanfeng. In case she can't save face, it will be difficult to get along in the future. Let's talk about it more seriously, if the princess and grandmother find out and drive them out in anger, won't they create a great evil? The third master is dead, and the third aunt has no children, if she is kicked out, it will be very miserable.
Give her a lesson and let her understand that if she does this, she will be recognized, and the consequences will be serious, and it will be good to correct it later.
But let her take out all the money in her pocket, not lose face, but also convince her, and be careful in the future. That is, it is not easy to give a warning and piggyback on the lesson.
Anyway, she is from Mufu, and she is only temporary. Even being in charge is temporary. Whether she is greedy or deducts money, it is all Mufu's money, and it has nothing to do with her. But it doesn't work while she's in charge of the house.
You have to think about it. Handled with caution. She plans to leave Mu Mansion in the future, and she can't pull too much hatred.
was pondering, Xia Chenyu's startled voice came from outside the door: "Brother and sister, brother and sister." Cousin, I'm here, I'm about to finish making sour noodle soup for my cousin, but I'm hungry. ”
Then came Meng Buqian's tepid voice: "Chenyu, don't scare your younger siblings." Eat noodles and eat noodles, what to do so loudly. ”
The sound is a bit distant.
Yan Tianyan hurriedly got up and looked out, outside the window, Mu Hanfeng Xia Chen Yumeng didn't hesitate to walk from the gate, and then passed by the garden.
Early autumn. The garden is still full of flowers, jasmine exudes a faint fragrance, and chrysanthemums are also budding. The roses are not completely defeated yet, and several are blooming. , although it is not as hot as summer, it is also like fire. (To be continued.) )
