Maybe it was the first one to be pointed by Tong Xue, and I was a little nervous. The eldest girl looked a little reserved, but she replied quickly, "Madam, my name is Daya, I am good at female workers, I have good skills, and I can also do kitchen work, I can do whatever Madame asks me to do." β
Tong Xue glanced up, this girl seemed a little urgent, obviously a little flustered, Tong Xue is looking for a maid now than she was looking for a maid before, and the requirements are naturally different.
In the past, it was indeed necessary to be able to help with anything, but now, she needed more professionally trained and possessed a skill that she was good at.
For example, combing her hair, on occasions like today, she can only ask Yan Niang to help, but she is now in this position, such occasions must be experienced often, and she can't let Yan Niang help every time, and Yan Niang's shop has to be opened by her.
Tong Xue had already ruled out this person in her heart, and then looked at the next person.
After having a big head, the people behind are obviously much calmer, and they have probably written in their hearts, but this time, it is much smoother.
Tong Xue listened to it for a while and found that the maids here, in general, even if they have been cultivated, their level is a little uneven. The clever ones look very smart, and some of them look like the first big girl, and they look a little dumbfounded. There are also some people who obviously have craftsmanship in their bodies, looking at them as maids who have been trained in other people's homes, no matter how such a girl left the original master's house, Tong Xue doesn't want to use it.
is mainly Xu Wenda's current identity, which makes Tong Xue have to be careful. After all, Xu Wenda is still working against most of the officials in Yuzhou. She'd rather spend some time. Cultivate your own maids, and you don't want to cause any trouble.
I have to say that Tong Xue's actions did save some trouble. Those who originally wanted to spy on Xu Wenda were unsuccessful for the time being.
Tong Xue sat there, and then said, "I only need two maids for the time being." β
Originally, Xu Wenda meant to buy a few more, but there were only two masters in this yard, and there were not many things, Tong Xue thought about it for a while, and finally chose two. It's never too late to buy it later when you need someone.
Tong Xue stretched out her finger and pointed to the one in the middle, although this girl is small, her age is in the middle here. is already ten years old, not only is she articulate, but after two years, when Jade gets married, she will be able to make up for it. "This Yin Yin in the middle. Would you like to stay? β
Tong Xue asked, the girl naturally nodded, and quickly agreed to stand by Tong Xue's side.
Looking at the rest of the people, Tong Xue was a little entangled, there was nothing particularly prominent, and at this time, the girl who was the oldest suddenly knelt down, "Madam." You buy me, I'm going to have a hard time doing it. β
"What are you doing?" Although Tong Xue said that she had accepted the setting that she was in ancient times, where there was a clear distinction between dignity and inferiority. But seeing the actions of the big girl in front of me, I was still a little disgusted in my heart, and I always felt that I seemed to be coerced.
But no one likes this feeling of being coerced, Tong Xue glanced at Ya Po who was standing next to her, and said with a little displeasure, "Ya Po, don't you say that you have been trained, now this is a few meanings, is it possible that your Ya Shop still has to buy and sell forcefully." β
Ya Po felt that she was sweating, this batch of maids had indeed been trained, but because of the long and short time she had been in the tooth shop, the training Cheng DΓΉ was really good and bad, and she originally thought that it didn't matter if she brought it directly, but as soon as she opened her mouth, it was full of problems.
Especially this big girl, she has only been in the tooth shop for three days, and she doesn't know that the big girl will make such a rude move, which is simply smashing the signboard of the tooth shop.
Ya Po hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the big girl up, "Madam, today's incident is a complete misunderstanding, this girl usually looks very well-behaved, I didn't expect her to do this, I will teach her a good lesson when I go back." β
Tong Xue picked another maid who looked more calm, "As for the little maid, there are also a few in the family, you can go to Steward Lu to pick this." β
Tong Xue sent Ya Po away, then looked at the two people who bought it, and said, "From now on, you will be the maids of the Xu family, and the two of you will be called Luyin and Luliu in the future." Tong Xue looked in the direction of Jade, "Jade, these two people are in your charge." β
Jade was a little excited, she never thought that she could still manage people, it was really happiness that came too suddenly, making people a little defenseless, before she had always envied Mrs. Yan Niang very much, as if she ignored her, a little lost.
Unexpectedly, it was only a few days later, Mrs. asked her to take care of people, and Jade asked in disbelief, "Madam, do you mean that I am in charge?" β
Tong Xue smiled, she is not the kind of person who treats her subordinates harshly, since she has already bought two more people, there is no need to have Jade still be the same as before, Tong Xue said with a smile, "Yes, from now on, you will be the big girl next to me." β
Jade was happy for a while, and let go of her words, and asked with a smile, "Madam, is the moon money rising?" β
Tong Xue quipped, "It's the first time you can ask for money so justifiably." β
However, the treatment of the big girl should be a little different, but it suddenly occurred to her that the monthly money of the jade was never sent by her before, and said, "Then go with ...... Well, Steward Lu will report it, and he will say that he will give you a month or two of money. β
Jade happily responded, "Thank you, madam." β
Tong Xue looked at the two new maids and said, "You two should go down too, there are not many things at home now, you clean up your residence first, I will tell you if there is something." β
Green Willow was the first to go out, Green Yin walked two steps, and then looked back at Tong Xue, Jade frowned and asked, "Why don't you leave." β
Lu Yin is the clever girl named Yin Yin, Tong Xue thought that this name sounded good, so she left a word for her, but Lu Yin talked about the big girl, "That, the big girl, she didn't mean it, someone in her family was sick, so she sold herself to the tooth shop, she was just a little anxious about herself, thinking about finding the main house quickly." I took the monthly money. β
Tong Xue was a little disappointed, she still seemed to be a little lacking in looking at people. This person who looks smart on the surface may not really be able to understand people's faces.
Or maybe this person actually understands his face, but thinks he will be soft-hearted, so he said so.
Feeling the temptation of a maid to be kind to herself, Tong Xue was a little displeased, and then asked rhetorically, "I know." So? β
Tong Xue was angry. Since he was sold into slavery, which one of them did not have their own hardships, Tong Xue could understand. But it doesn't mean that she has to accept a maid that she didn't like in the first place.
Jade looked at Tong Xue's face and knew that Tong Xue was unhappy, Tong Xue was a very kind master to his subordinates, and he didn't even say anything serious to his subordinates, but Jade knew. Tong Xue is not temperless. So he hurriedly dragged the green out of the room, "The slave has retired." β
Tong Xue pinched the corner of her forehead with a headache, which is why she didn't want to buy someone. When there are more people, problems will naturally arise.
Tong Xue shouted outside, "Jade, wait a minute, Lu Wang called in, I have something to tell him." β
Jade was going to find Lu Wang to talk about her monthly money, and heard Tong Xue's words. I got the person back in no time.
Lu Wang seems to be much calmer than before, probably because he has been following Xu Wenda for a long time. This expression has also learned a lot, and it looks a little indistinguishable, and he said in a very respectful tone, "Madam, you are looking for me." β
Tong Xue nodded, "Yes, there is something to ask Steward Lu to do." β
Hearing Tong Xue's ridicule, Lu Wang's expression on his face fluctuated slightly, and his face turned half red all of a sudden. Where can I afford the word housekeeper, that is, an adult lifts and can be an errand runner. β
"There are not many people in the family now, if there are more people in the future, you really need to take care of it, aren't you the housekeeper of my Xu family?" Tong Xue said with a smile, "I just asked Ya Po to look for you, you are the only one who follows Xianggong every day, and you are afraid that you will not be able to be busy alone." β
Lu Wang's favorite thing is to follow Xu Wenda, that feeling that there are a lot of things to do every day, Lu Wang really likes it, "That's not it, it's not tiring to do things with adults at all." But the adults also said that they would buy a few small houses, and I have already done this. There is also the deed of sale of these two girls just now. β
Tong Xue nodded, "You have always been safe in doing things." β
"Thank you, ma'am, for the compliment."
After asking about the previous little girl, Tong Xue talked about looking for Lu Wanglai, "Just now there was a maid who insisted that I buy her, but I refused, Lu Yin, one of the two girls I bought, told me that the eldest girl had difficulties at home, so she was so out of shape." β
Lu Wang actually knows that this lady is very kind-hearted, as Xu Wenda's personal servant, Lu Wang naturally knows the stories between Xu Wenda and Tong Xue, and from those things, he automatically made up a story that he knew that his husband was seriously ill and did not give up taking care of him, and finally moved God, and her husband recovered from his illness and became famous.
So Lu Wang naturally felt that Tong Xue was soft-hearted, and immediately asked, "Is Madam going to buy this big girl back?" β
Tong Xue shook her head, in fact, when she heard it just now, Tong Xue still hesitated, but in the end she still didn't do it, but probably she was not a cold person after all, so she called Lu Wang over, "No, I changed my mind after listening to the words of a maid, that's not to sue them, I'm just a soft-eared person, I change my order every day, and what authority is there to speak of." β
Tong Xue's answer surprised Lu Wang, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be reasonable, and he also felt that it was right to do so, Tong Xue said, "You go check and see if the situation is the same as what Lu Yin said, if you really need help, then help." β
"Anyway, it's the people under the jurisdiction of the minister, if there is a problem, help it." Tong Xue said, "Just help your master accumulate some merits, as for the scale, you can grasp it yourself, there are fighting rice in this world, and there is also a promotion of rice hatred, I believe you can handle it." β
Lu Wang suddenly felt that this matter was a little more difficult than he imagined, but he was still very happy to do what Tong Xue ordered, "Yes." β
After saying this, Lu Wang took out an account book and a small box, "Madam, this is what the adult asked me to give you just now." β
Just now, when Jade went to Lu Wang to say that the monthly money had risen, Xu Wenda remembered that the monthly money had always been issued by his side, and he had not given Tong Xue the income of the last two months in the Zhuangzi in the capital, so he asked Lu Wang to send it over.
Tong Xue flipped through it and looked at the account book, this is the ancient way of bookkeeping, Tong Xue has seen it, but what kind of account book is this, Tong Xue asked curiously, "What is this?" β
Lu Wang replied respectfully, "The account book of the family's expenses, as well as the silver bills, the lord said, this should have been handed over to the lady." β
Tong Xue is very satisfied with Xu Wenda's self-awareness, although she has money and is still working hard to make money, but the money she earns is very different from the money given by her boyfriend, "It's okay, take it and put it away." β
Tong Xue happily flipped through the account book, looking at the records here that were a little cumbersome, and the records here were all the expenses of the entire family after coming to Yuzhou.
Because there were not many of them, Tong Xue translated the ledger into Arabic numerals on a whim and copied a new one. Looking at her probabilities, Tong Xue was very satisfied.
She is not a professional accountant, and she is actually not good at these things, but it is much easier for her to simplify Chinese numbers and make them her habitual numbers.
It's just that this account book still has to be made into two copies, her own one, and the current account book, after all, there are a few people in the family now, and she can remember a few accounts or something, but after arriving, if there are more and more people, there will be no way for her to do this work alone.
Making an account book can hold her back most of the time, but at that time, she may not be able to do anything else at all, and at that time, she will have to kiss an account room, and these things will have to be handed over to someone to manage.
If you show others what you have written, it will be too shocking.
Because there was a lot of silver in her pocket, Tong Xue was so beautiful in her heart, and when she saw Xu Wenda, her face was also very good at Xu Wenda, "Thank you, Xianggong, for handing over the family's financial power to me." β
Xu Wenda smiled, disapproving, in fact, since Tong Xue reached a cooperation with the Zhou family, Xu Wenda has a sense of crisis, and always feels that he should work harder to make money, "Hasn't our family's financial power always been in your hands?" β
