Chapter 32 Recommendation
Chen Yuanheng looked at his wife and was stunned: "Why does Madam think so, isn't it good to be a nobleman in the palace?" ”
Bai said: "Master, our eldest sister entered the palace at the age of fifteen, because of her beautiful appearance and her family, she was very favored for a while, and her stomach was competitive, and she gave birth to a daughter and a son. Promoted to the concubine position, our Chen family followed the wind and water, like flowers and brocade, and cooking oil in the fire. However, after two years, the prince was assassinated by someone in the **, and the eldest sister fell out of favor again, and life in those years was better than death, if it weren't for her daughter Princess Lichuan, I wouldn't know what would have happened. Our Chen family has also plummeted, being ostracized everywhere, and life in the house is much worse. Isn't that alarming, sir? The eldest sister is a famous daughter. Look at the second sister and the third sister, one is married to the prince of Linhai, and the other is the daughter-in-law of the eldest princess, all living in the noble family, although there are all kinds of difficult things, but they are all very good, I want to go back to my mother's house and give an order, make a car and go back, there are unsatisfactory things in my husband's house, you can go back to the house to say, think of a way, how many difficulties have passed. And the eldest sister, since she was fifteen years old, until now she is alone in the palace fighting, we can follow the light, but we can't help her, not to mention, we can't even see her, this is a deep sea when you enter the palace. Sir, don't you see it yet? Our Hui'er has been sick since she was a child, how much effort has it taken for our husband and wife, how can we bear to let her go to the place where she doesn't see the light of day and her parents, and live those lives with open knives and hidden guns. ”
Speaking of this, Bai Shi was already in tears. Chen Yuanheng also sighed: "What Madame said is very true. Although my eldest sister and I are not the same mother, my eldest sister treated me very well when I was a child, and she didn't look down on me because I was a concubine. But she entered the palace very early, and I haven't seen her for almost twenty years. If I don't see Hui'er for 20 years, I'll go crazy. Hey, let's hide the matter of Hui'er Zaohui, in the future, pick an ordinary family for her, we will give her more dowry, so that she can live comfortably in her husband's house, if her husband's mother-in-law is not good to her, I will let Jun'er and Lin'er call the door. These words made Bai, who was already crying, burst into tears and laughed.
The days passed quickly, autumn was almost over, and Chen Yuanheng was very happy for a while. Autumn is the season of harvest, and he also has a good harvest in this autumn. The loan program is being promoted very smoothly. In fact, there have been many magistrates who have done this kind of thing before, but most of them ended in failure, and only he was very smooth. The main reason is that he cooperated with businessmen and made the plan a business, unlike the previous officials who did it as a policy.
It is foreseeable that next year will definitely bring results. In addition, the tax affairs that had been giving him a headache were completed smoothly, and he prudently sent many officials to escort the tax silver, which was done very well, and the tax money was delivered, and returned safely.
It also came back with a message. It turned out that he was not the only one who was worried about taxes and silver, because in the past two years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the country and the people have been safe, resulting in lower and lower grain prices, and many places have not been able to complete their tasks. He was actually the first of all the counties in Deqing Province to complete the task. It made him very proud.
A few days ago, he finally took a break from his busy mundane affairs, made a post, and invited many famous people and young scholars in the county to come to his grange not far from the county seat and hold a chrysanthemum poetry party. At the poetry meeting, the colorful posture of chrysanthemums, the delicious food at the banquet, and the intoxicating wine made these readers open their minds and make many poems. After the poetry meeting, these poems were circulated among the readers, and for a while, the reputation of the chrysanthemum poetry club sounded, and of course, his reputation was also remembered among the readers. At the same time, he also took a fancy to several extraordinarily talented scholars in these poems, and made great friends.
Of course, in exchange for their gratitude, I believe that with their own vision, these people will definitely be able to win this year, but he has a lot of help. The days ahead are wonderful. Of course, he is doing well in this Ancheng, and he can't forget that he is in the capital, and now he is going to prepare gifts for the New Year to all the families in the capital, and it seems that he is going to urge Lan Shanghan to help him buy high-quality silk.
Bai has been busy all autumn. Because her men are busier than she is. First of all, Chen Cai, the big housekeeper couldn't take care of the affairs of the mansion all the autumn, because Chen Cai had to help the master take care of the affairs of the yamen. In this way, she had to do many things herself.
Then there is Ziyu is busy. Because the big order fell down, the reason why it was a big order was because it was an order of 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver. Although Ziyu had prepared before, she still couldn't do it by herself, and in desperation, she could only ask Li Huan to buy some poultry seedlings locally and in other places, so that it was enough to make up for the two. This incident made her and Li Huan's busy people turn their backs, but when she thought of the huge profits brought by this order, Ziyu was very happy. Of course, Ziyu also dumped part of the matter to the Bai family. For example, the transportation of silver, the purchase of sundries, etc., of course, the Bai family was too busy, so they could only send Qingshuang to assist Ziyu. In this way, Qingshuang, who originally helped the Bai family share the affairs of the house, could not share it.
There is also the matter of Qinghe Restaurant. Because the business of the merchants has been much better recently, these rich merchants are now richer, the number of times they go to the restaurant has increased, and the business of the restaurant has become more popular.
In this way, it will take more time for Bai's inventory, and of course, Bai's time is very happy. Another unexpected thing is that the business of Cuijin Building is also booming. Because there have been more orders for beautiful clothes recently, because the people have extra money in their hands and want to pull their clothes, and then, they found that the money spent on buying fabrics is about the same as the price of buying a beautiful clothes, but the style of beautiful clothes is better, and the needlework seems to be better than that of their mother-in-law at home, and it saves time, so most of them choose to buy beautiful clothes.
The sales of beautiful clothes have increased greatly, and the sales of brocade clothes and treasure clothes have also increased, because the wealthy businessmen who have made money not only go to restaurants to eat more, but also cut more clothes for the ladies at home. Now Cuijinlou's business is better. Feiguang was so busy that she had to go to the Bai family for help, the Bai family had already sent Qingshuang to Ziyu, where was there any manpower, fortunately, she thought of Chen Cai's family, and Chen Cai's family went to the market to find a group of people, which relieved Feiguang's pressure.
Of course, Cuijinlou's business is good, and he makes more money, so he has more accounts, and the Bai family has spent more effort. Finally, the soybean oil business is also good. Because soybean oil is cheaper than those lard and mutton fat, people who have extra money to buy oil choose to buy soybean oil, and the sales of soybean oil are greater. Fortunately, this business is mainly taught to the Wang family, and the Bai family just looks at the accounts and collects the cash every month. Because there were too many things, Bai sighed that no one used it at hand, so he used his daughter.
As a result, an unexpected joy was discovered. It turns out that her daughter's arithmetic ability is super strong. This reminded Bai of her husband's early wisdom again. In fact, these simple arithmetic are really nothing in Chen Wenhui's eyes. Chen Wenhui can be a white-collar worker in the 21st century, that is in college, although the major is not mathematics, but mathematics as a major subject is from the first grade of primary school all the way to the third year of high school, and because she chose to major in finance, she also studied calculus in college. These elementary school-level arithmetic can even learn calculus very well, and Chen Wenhui is too much of a piece of cake in his eyes.
Chen Wenhui can help her mother, but nothing else. Because she went out to start a business with all the big girls in her mother, there are now more than a dozen little maids in the house, let alone helping, and there is no one to lead their own training. Chen Wenhui smiled secretly, it seems that her pace is too fast, although her development is very good, but her mother is too tired. Thinking of this, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, by the way, there are two people who are not busy, but they can't be wasted.
Chen Wenhui hurriedly went to Bai's main house. Bai was very busy, and when he saw his daughter coming, he still pushed things aside, hugged his daughter and asked, "Hui'er, how is your body these days, the weather is getting colder, do you feel unwell?" "Chen Wenhui now does radio gymnastics every day, although it has caused the maid's surprised eyes, but the effect is very good, and this small body is getting better and better.
Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "Mother, I don't feel unwell, but I think you are too busy, I want to recommend two people to you to help share the burden." Bai Shi was very strange: "Where is there anyone in the house now, who do you recommend?" Actually, since you helped me look at the accounts, I don't have to do it before. Chen Wenhui smiled sweetly and said, "It's Sister Biwen and Sister Bishui." ”
A word woke up the person in the dream, Bai secretly blamed himself, how could he forget these two people. These two people used to be maids by their side, and then they were given out for their sons, and now the two sons are older, and there are mostly small maids around them, and even the chores in the room are also done by new little maids, and the two of them are idle. No, we have to take advantage of it.
Bai kissed his daughter fiercely, this daughter is too sweet. Then he instructed the red carp to call Biwen and Bishui and assign a lot of affairs, this is good, Biwen, Bishui is busy, and the Bai family is much easier. Chen Wenhui said at this time: "Mother, in fact, this is not enough, the main thing is to cultivate the little maids." Bai said: "I've been letting Qingshuang train, but now that Qingshuang is also busy, naturally no one will train them." Chen Wenhui said mysteriously: "Mother, I still have someone to recommend." "Now the Bai family is even more curious, there is really no big girl in the house this time, where to find someone to train.
Chen Wenhui looked at her mother's puzzled eyes and smiled, and said: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you, it is my mother's nurse Mother Li, as well as my nurse Mother Zheng, and the nurse of my two elder brothers, there are four more people at once, Mother sees, this is feasible." "Bai Shi is happy, I really forgot about them. Because the house has always been a big girl with a little girl before, she fell into this strange circle and couldn't get out. In fact, it is better for these nurses to take little maids, because they are more loyal and experienced. Without saying anything, Bai immediately called the four nurses and assigned the task. It's good now, everyone in the house is busy, but the Bai family is free.
