Chapter 214: Master, his heart is not right
"Except for you, Miss, there are a total of forty-nine subordinates in the house, eight in the old lady's room, three in each of the three young masters' rooms, and two in the fourth young lady's room. These people's monthly money ranges from eight taels to ten taels per month, and they are all innocent. The rest were bought from various places or sent by other mansions, scattered in the outer courtyards of each house or other places. The monthly money also ranges from two or three taels to five or six taels. ”
Lu Dabai is worthy of having figured out Bai Jiaojiao's preferences, and he is inseparable from money in three sentences. "These servants are all managed by Madame, assisted by Uchiko, and the young lady can go directly to Uchiko if necessary. In addition, this is all the rules in the current house, and Madame also said that Miss can modify it at will. ”
…… Her aunt really threw all the pots to her, and she didn't care about anything.
"These are not in a hurry, the young lady can watch slowly, and the old slave will not bother." The rules can be set slowly, but first take back the money, he still owes a sum of money for the carriage.
"Wait, Uncle Lu, your business is done, my business is not finished, I have something to ask you. Is there still a courtyard in our house? Bai Jiaojiao was afraid that what she said was vague, so she chased after her and added. Mama Cui should have told you about the morning? ”
"That's what Miss asked?"
"Yes, tell me what's going on in that yard." Bai Jiaojiao leaned back in her chair and listened to Lu Dabai's embarrassed explanation of her Lao Tzu's "romantic debts".
After a few cups of tea, Lu Dabai walked out of the white yard exhausted. Alas, master, it's really not that the old slave wants to betray you, it's just that the paper can't hold the fire, and the third lady guessed it...... In the future, he will be the third lady's person, sir, please ask for more blessings.
Looking at the whiteness in the room again, he drank the fourth cup of tea silently.
"Alas, what a poor lady." Green Sleeves sighed first, and said that General Bai and his wife were deeply in love, but who would have thought that there were so many warblers and Yanyan in the backyard. "But you can't blame the old man for this, after all, he is also very difficult."
It was all given by those saints, and how could he dare to refuse.
"Daddy is still young now, and he is in a high position, so it's natural to be targeted." Bai Jiaojiao was still calm, and did not anger her poor father. "I don't blame him for his ability to clean himself, it's just that their existence has always made A-Niang's heart panic."
"Then the young lady is going to deal with them?" Greensleeves made a gesture and clicked his neck.
Bai Jiaojiao rolled her eyes, they were all gifts, and they were not drowned in saliva if they were killed like this. Besides, if you kill this batch, you won't send it again, and I'm afraid that it will be more troublesome when the time comes. "Let's keep it for now." I hope they can have a long eye of interest, and don't feel uncomfortable in front of her.
Thinking of the viciousness in the eyes of that woman in the morning, heh, I'm afraid it's hard.
After carefully accounting for the old accounts of the Bai family, Bai Jiaojiao also had a bottom in his heart. "Daddy is also capable, he has to hand over more than half of his money to his mother, and he can save so much money to subsidize these people."
The people who are subsidized by the white father are roughly divided into three categories, the first is the orphans and widows who are helpless and unable to support themselves, one is the one who has lifelong regrets due to war disability, and the other is dispensable for caring for the old feelings. Bai Ziqi is not confused, he mainly helps the first two, and the last one is estimated to be annoying, and he only occasionally manages it, and it is not much in terms of records.
"The master is quite clever, although he doesn't expect to get back the silver, but he has left a foundation."
Bai Jiaojiao waved her brush and copied down each name and the time of expenditure according to the format on the booklet. "Daddy knows very well that he always has room for himself to do things, if he doesn't even have this little thought, he won't be able to go today. Besides, even Uncle Lu knows that he hid this booklet under his pillow, do you think Ah Niang will not know? ”
"You mean that the master also deliberately did it for Madame?!" Deliberately did it to show Mrs. to let Mrs. know that he didn't spend money indiscriminately to reassure Mrs. "Sir, this is too treacherous."
This is the tacit way of getting along with husband and wife by his father and mother, and it is really a matter of learning everywhere. Bai Jiaojiao blew on the half-dried paper, "You still secretly put back this original version while Daddy didn't come back." ”
The situation of the Bai family is not so bad, Daddy subsidizes these people because they have no way to survive on their own in their current situation, but it is not a problem for her that orphans and widows are disabled, as long as they are willing to study diligently, she can always arrange a job for them to be self-reliant.
Women and children can work with reliable handicrafts, while men can go to the fields to farm or do other work, which can not only solve the burden of the Bai family, but also solve her problem of lack of manpower, the best of both worlds.
After the two major problems about money were solved, Bai Jiaojiao stretched out easily, opened the window, and the little guys outside were busy with umbrellas to save the flowers and trees that had been washed away by the heavy rain.
"Here's what to do."
Caiyun replied through the window. "The rain was so heavy that some of the low courtyard walls in the house were washed down, and the garden pools were overflowing. Madame is having people dig ditches to divert water, and there is a lot of water in our yard. ”
"This courtyard is on high ground, and it will not be affected for a while and a half, and it can flow out." She had calculated the amount of water and drainage in the yard, "Don't worry about these flowers, you let them go and help your mother drain the water." ”
"Yes, you don't need to get it here, take the umbrella and tools and go to Madame's with me."
Caixia looked at Bai Jiaojiao with a worried look. "Won't Miss come over? I've just heard that the rain has overwhelmed a lot of homes. ”
"Don't worry, this rain is almost over." Although Bai Jiaojiao had long known the consequences of this heavy rain, she still couldn't help but read her sins, although the rain she set was concentrated in the Taoshan area, but it always affected others.
Is this rain about to stop? I didn't see any intention of stopping such a heavy rain. Caixia looked up at the dark clouds......
Also melancholy under the dark clouds is a pair of master and servant.
Qingfeng followed Qin Moshu and stood at the entrance of the nunnery, "When will this rain stop?" "They wanted to wait for the rain to stop going down today, but they didn't see any sign of the rain stopping.
"Bodhisattva, please bless this heavy rain to stop soon." Qingfeng bowed to the statue of the Bodhisattva enshrined in the nunnery.
When I looked up, I saw that my own master, who had never believed in gods and Buddhas, actually bowed down to the Bodhisattva a few times. "Your Excellency, ......"
"This rain is too strange." Qin Moshu had observed the celestial phase, and the clouds and the humidity in the air were too strange.
"Is there a wreckage of evil?" Qingfeng couldn't help but guess, and suddenly looked frightened.
"Amitabha, good and good, the donor is cautious."
"It's Mrs. Shi." Qingfeng was startled by the sudden appearance of Master Huiyin, patting his chest in a panic. "Mrs. Shi, people are scared to death."
"Donor, the heart is not afraid of evil, and the good heart can turn evil into good."
…… Mrs. Shi, he doesn't have a right heart! (To be continued.) )
