Since taking over the housekeeper, Daiyu has often invited Qingyun to join her, and Aunt Xu and others have assisted her, which has really made Qingyun learn a lot. After Daiyu dealt with the two mothers-in-law, she suddenly felt that in the past few years after her mother's death, there was no master mother in the house, and there were always a lot of omissions, so she had the heart to rectify it.

Daiyu held the roster of the people in the house in her hand, thought about it for a long time and said to her: "There are only three serious masters in our family, but there are one or two hundred, not to mention Daddy for the time being, that is, there are only about a dozen girls and mothers-in-law in your hospital and me, and there are not so many people who are on errands everywhere." There are many people, and there is also overlap in the factions, which is easy to cause chaos, so it is better to lay off some people. ”

"How to cut? And what is the name? Qingyun asked, you must know that everyone has always only bought people and not sold people, and only when the family business is ruined, if any family wants to send people out, they will definitely find some good names. What's more, Daiyuchu's housekeeper is young and young, so he must pay more attention not to leave any mean reputation behind.

Daiyu curled her fingers at the ends of her hair and said: "Next month is my grandmother's jealousy, just use this grace to let a group of people out, and don't want to be worth silver, just return the deed and let them go." There are those who rely on the dignity of several lifetimes to be powerful and lazy to eat and drink, and they are allowed to go out to raise themselves, and they are allowed to receive silver and rice every month, but they are not allowed to continue to be errands. Sister thinks that's appropriate? ”

"My sister is very thoughtful, you might as well ask Fu Bo again, Xu Yi's father also has lazy and slippery people, so he just took this opportunity to release them together." Qingyun has something to say, but I believe that Daiyu will understand it if she is smart.

"What does my sister mean......" Daiyu's heart moved, and it was immediately clear. She is the daughter of an official family, she has experienced it since she was a child, and she knows that the struggle in officialdom often affects the inner house, and her mother dealt with this kind of thing when she was alive. At that time, she also asked them what was wrong with them, but her mother, concerned that she was still young, only said that their hands and feet were not clean.

Then Daiyu ordered someone to send a message to Fu Bo, and Fu Bo reported to Lin Ruhai.

"And I added the two from before." Lin Ruhai wanted to find an opportunity to deal with it herself, but unexpectedly her daughter mentioned it first, and she couldn't help but feel that her daughter was older.

When Jia Min went a few years ago, he was worried about internal and external troubles, and he had no choice but to send his daughter to Jia's house. Now that I have taken it back, I must plan for my daughter's future. After thinking about it, he wrote a secret fold to Beijing to show the recent movements of Yangzhou one by one, and asked to be transferred back to Beijing on the grounds of old age and physical illness and energy difficulties, and now only waiting for the approval of the saint. On the other hand, there is no housewife in the family, and Daiyu has no teaching, so I am afraid that she will be criticized in the future. At the same time, he also wrote a letter to his old friend in Beijing, asking him to help extend the two retiring grandmothers who retired from the palace.

Daiyu of the inner house got the list handed by Fu Bo, discussed it with Qingyun again, and ordered Aunt Xu to gather all the subordinates the next day and handle it immediately. At first glance, when I heard that the house was going to let people out, the people were all panicked and kowtowed to show loyalty and refused to leave, and when Aunt Xu was solemn, she read the list of people to be released and said that she did not want to redeem the silver, and she could take away the body that everyone had saved, although everyone was still reluctant but no longer made trouble.

Qingyun knew the roster, and he also knew the names of the two people sent by Fu Bo, but he saw that the two people were very flustered, but they never acted out of line.

After that, I read a few more people, all of whom were old grandmothers who went out to raise themselves. These people obviously want to make trouble, but since they said that they are honored, and they don't have to do anything to take care of the silver rice, this is considered a grace from the master, how to make trouble? It's better to go your own way.

Aunt Xu saw that Lin Daiyu had a successful heart, and she was both gracious and powerful, although the means were immature, but they were already good, and she couldn't help but feel relieved. When everyone dispersed, he held a few booklets and said, "Girl, this is the booklet of the treasury, and now that the girl has taken over the housekeeper, it is normal to count and count the treasury." ”

"It just so happens that I'm about to find some fine fine saros to make clothes." Daiyu picked up Qingyun: "Sister also go and take a look, choose two horses you like, the acacia in your room is very skillful, let her make you two sets of summer clothes to wear." ”

"I'm interested in looking at the treasures in the warehouse, so I don't need to wear clothes, and I made four sets just after entering the summer mansion. I don't go out on weekdays to see customers, and I don't have to wear it next year. "Qingyun really doesn't lack clothes. Although she was penniless when she wore it, when she arrived at Zhang's house, Mrs. Zhang asked her to make two sets, and came to Lin's house, four sets per season, and a complete set of jewelry, and now the clothes have been packed in two or three large boxes.

"What those people do is not as fine as what we do ourselves. I got a new pattern, embroidered on clothes must look good, my sister made a set of ink bamboo, I made a piece of bluegrass. Daiyu has never worn the clothes made in the sewing room, they are all made by the maids, she is also very particular about dressing, often her own color matching and drawing, the taste is elegant and good, she also enjoys it.

Seeing that she was so interested, Qingyun smiled and said, "In this case, I will work you out, I just have to wait for the new clothes to wear." ”

The two of them talked and went to the warehouse, the Lin family's warehouse was huge, and the whole courtyard was full of things. The storehouse was divided into categories, and the room where the silk and satin were placed were advanced, and it was full of all kinds of materials, and it was enough to open a silk and satin village.

"Two girls, there are leos on the shelves here, and these are new ones this year, and they are all high-quality fine yarns, and there are many colors, so it is suitable for summer clothes." Aunt Xu said.

Qingyun chose light green for bedwear, blue and pure white for middle clothes and gauze skirts, and Daiyu chose light purple and pure white. In addition, Daiyu picked two more plain cocoon silks, which Qingyun did not refuse, and asked the maid to send them to her room.

After choosing the materials, he checked the number in the warehouse while reading the booklet, and Qingyun followed them one by one and recognized a lot of silk and satin. She has never been in contact with these things before, and Aunt Xu mentioned this time that the inventory of the treasury is a necessary process for housekeepers, and secondly, it is also a disguised teaching to recognize fabrics, which is one of the necessary skills of being a housewife.

"It's a rare trip, let's see something else." Although Daiyu was a little tired, she still mentioned yì and went to other rooms to have a look.

"It's fine." Qingyun received her kindness. Qingyun knows very well that even if she is older than Daiyu and has a more mature mental age, she still has many inferiorities. What she lacks is the daughter of the family since she was a child, but she doesn't know many common sense things, but fortunately, she doesn't have to go out to meet guests during the filial piety period, and there is still enough time to learn.

A few days later, Lin Ruhai received a report from the palace that Zhang Ming really won it, and he was the 35th in the second class. Even if there are others above him, there are very few people as young as him, so you can imagine how high-spirited he is. Lin Ruhai informed Qingyun and Daiyu, and the two immediately considered the gift list drawn up earlier, and after the preparations were neat, Fu Bo sent someone to Jinling.

The Lin family's father and daughter have a very deep relationship, and their daily relationship is not as rigid as other families, and the father and daughter will eat together every two or three days, and Lin Ruhai also took this leisure time to teach her poetry and books. At dinner this day, Qingyun was sensitive to Lin Ruhai's bad mood, and understood that he received a report from the palace and learned that Zhang Mingzhong was raised, and he mentioned it several times in his early years, which can be seen that he appreciated it very much, but now he is not happy but worried, but why is it that he is not happy?

"Daddy is troubled?" Daiyu is the most sensitive, and she is her own father, since she was frightened once before, she has always been very concerned about Lin Ruhai's body, and she has to ask once or twice a day.

Lin Ruhai saw that both of her were looking at her, her eyes were full of questions and exploration, she thought about it, and told the truth: "I asked the saint to play before, saying that I was not energetic, and I hoped to be transferred back to any idle position in Beijing. ”

"What does the Holy One say?" Daiyu was also nervous, she knew since she was a child that her father's official duties were hard, not only exhausting but also dangerous, if possible, she was naturally willing to let her father unload this hot potato.

Lin Ruhai sighed lightly: "The Holy Lord let me serve for another year." ”

After all, Yan Zheng is different from others, Lin Ruhai has been re-elected for many years, and he knows the way very well, and he will definitely not be able to support it if he changes someone at first glance. What's more, at the moment, all parties are ready to move, and it is not easy for the Holy Lord to find a suitable person who can be trusted and can take on this important responsibility.

Qingyun also expected that it would not be easy for Lin Ruhai to step down, but it would be delayed for another year......

Daiyu will be ten years old next year, and it is also the year that Lin Ruhai passed away in the original book, even if she regulates her body, but who knows if there will be other changes? And the story in the original book talks more about appearances, whether Lin Ruhai died of illness or other reasons, who can say clearly?
