The first to disappear was the daughter of the outer courtyard.

This little girl actually doesn't have any decent errands, but she is a child born in the family, and she came with her father, and is responsible for watering the flowers and trees in the outer yard, just don't die. This is a job that cannot be more light--the real garden of Moxiangyuan has its own full-time gardener, and she is only responsible for the so-called outer courtyard, that is, the courtyard of Lu Xingsheng, who does not come often.

The girl is gone, and Wu Da knows it. Not only did he not let his daughter-in-law go to the inner courtyard to report to Miss Xia or the second lady to know, but he rolled it up, and brought his daughter-in-law and his eldest son, who was a janitor, to ...... together. Ran.

The family is gone, and the housekeeper Lu Chen is a little panicked. If nothing else, at least he's a housekeeper who doesn't manage it well. In fact, he also knew where the family had gone-didn't he just go back to the Lu family's mansion, but he still didn't report it to the inner courtyard at the moment, but quietly sent someone back to persuade him.

If you can persuade you to come back, the matter will be hidden.

Anyway, there are so many subordinates, and the masters can't even recognize them, so they must not be careful.

It's a pity that it backfired, Lu Chen's housekeeper waited and waited, not only did the Wuda family not come back, but even the people sent over ...... Also stayed.

Lu Chen was ruthless at the moment and asked his daughter-in-law to count the number of people. It turned out that not only Wuda and others, but also the maids and daughters-in-law in the inner courtyard, and even the nursing home had left.

There are so many that there are thirteen of them.

……

……

Xia Xiaodong put down the pen in his hand and looked at the words on the paper with satisfaction. After writing for so many days, at least this handwriting has finally been practiced and can meet people.

"You just said that thirteen of them were gone?" Xia Xiaodong turned his gaze from the paper to Lu Chen's face: "Where did they go?" ”

"Back to the girl's words, they ...... I think they're all going back to the mansion. Lu Chen lowered his head a little: "Now, do you want to tell the second lady to know?" ”

In Lu Chen's eyes, Miss Xia was more like a guest. Although the second lady has never been careful, she is always a decent master in the garden.

"No, you don't." Xia Xiaodong said unequivocally. The second lady should still recite her Buddha dutifully.

"Everyone's deeds are here, so you don't need to trouble the second lady." Considering that Lu Chen was a housekeeper, Xia Xiaodong still explained it to him.

Lu Chen was taken aback.

Slavery is private property, and the transfer of the deed of ownership means the transfer of the official master. This young show girl who lives in a guest house is actually her serious master?!

Lu Chen couldn't accept it a little. Finally, he is now over half a hundred years old and has seen a lot of things, so he will not immediately talk in shock, just hang his head, not letting Xia Xiaodong see his face.

"Steward Lu, sit down." Xia Xiaodong casually pointed to a chair.

"There's my place in front of the girl." Lu Chen didn't dare to sit.

"If you don't sit, I think you still have to lean your neck, isn't it more strenuous." Xia Xiaodong smiled: "You just sit, I have something to ask you." ”

Lu Chen had no choice but to sit on the edge of the chair to see what this Xia girl had to say.

"Didn't you give everyone a monthly payment?" Xia Xiaodong's next sentence made Lu Chen slip out of the chair directly to the ground, and simply knelt down.

"It's gone! The small ones paid the silver every month, and they all paid everyone the monthly money on time! Lu Chen replied categorically, and almost swore to the sky: "There are all books to prove it!" There's a handprint on it. If there is a deduction, you can remember it clearly because of what and what is going on. ”

"Get up and speak." Xia Xiaodong said: "Then since they have sent monthly money, why did they still run away?" ”

Lu Chen got up from the ground, still only half of the chair, and said with a wry smile: "Miss Xia, I am also a little old, say a few words about relying on the old and selling the old, don't be angry." ”

"You say, I don't blame you." Xia Xiaodong waved his hand and looked at Lu Chen with wide eyes, he really felt quite strange.

To be honest, Mo Xiangyuan's work is very easy, from himself to Lu Yunzhi to the second lady, no master will be difficult for others. The boss is very good, the work is easy, the salary is still paid, what are these people doing?

So Lu Chen popularized Xia Xiaodong's thoughts.

Actually, the reason is very simple. The next person is also a person, and as long as it is a person, there is always the mind to climb up.

It can even be said that a subordinate who does not want to climb up is not a good descendant.

A rough maid who sweeps the floor, a third-class maid who wants to be a watering flower. The third-class maid who watered the flowers, and wanted to be the second-class maid who held the handkerchief. And the second-class maid who holds the handkerchief dreams of becoming a first-class maid who can manage the girl's clothes and jewelry and can manage other maids.

Even if she is a first-class maid, she also aims at marrying a maid, and then becomes the way for her aunt to have a room and even a concubine.

In order to settle for the second, you have to marry a decent little housekeeper and become a decent daughter-in-law.

And so on, the little guys also follow the path of the little steward, the big steward, and the steward.

It is precisely because of the idea of climbing up that everyone is inspired to work hard and do a good job to be promoted.

However, the place of Moxiangyuan is too peaceful. Of course, there are few things, but correspondingly, not to mention the slow rise, there are fewer ways to make money.

In fact, the people who were originally transferred to Moxiangyuan were really relatively good, but with so many people, it is inevitable that there are still good and bad people who have different ideas.

"Girl, please think about it, in our garden, there are very few visitors, and even fewer guests." Lu Chen simply said bluntly: "The little guy on the second door hasn't even taken a few rewards, just taking the monthly money, and the people over there can't be compared." ”

No extra money. I see.

"Then they can have an errand when they go back?" Xia Xiaodong can't say that he doesn't know anything about the mansion door. Some of the errands are robbed by a lot of people.

"......" Lu Chen's dark face was dull for a long time, but he still said the answer: "The uncle of the long house is sick, and there are more people to use." And the old slave inquired, they seem to want people from our side. ”

Naturally, the sick need more people to serve. In addition, as soon as the uncle falls ill, I am afraid that many things in Changfang's hands will be a little messy, and there are many people who want to take this opportunity to fish in troubled waters to reap the benefits. When there is a heart to instigate, there are naturally people who are tempted.

"Then why don't they say it first?" Xia Xiaodong still found it difficult to understand. After all, I am also a person who has worked, so if you imagine the current situation as a workplace, it is easy to understand. However, if you want to change jobs, you have to quit first, right? What's the matter with throwing things away and running away?

"......" Lu Chen's face darkened even more: "This is probably because I am worried that the girls don't understand, and if they leave people casually, it will be difficult to leave." Moreover, Miss Yunfang is about to get married, and these people ......, maybe they will follow. ”

What if I resign with you and you don't let go? Anyway, in the master's house, the unmarried girls are the best to bully - they have to worry about reputation. What's more, the conditions offered by the other party are high, and generally speaking, the people who marry are naturally a few points more decent than ordinary subordinates.

Lu Yunfang? Digging the foot of the wall and digging into the Moxiang Garden, this is not kind.

The question is, did she dig the corner of Lu Yunzhi's wall, or did she know that these people had already given it to her, and she dug her own corner?
