After Tang Tingou's first seven years, Lin Keji left in a hurry, because a call came from Luzhou, saying that the young lady was at home and committed suicide.

He grew up in the palm of his hand since he was a child, he was rich and comfortable all the way, and his heart was higher when he was young, and after the accidental death of his wife, it may be God's punishment to come, and his well-behaved and lovely little daughter Lin Jiashu suddenly became his living ancestor.

The pain and anxiety that he had not experienced in the first half of his life were retributed to him by Lin Jiashu.

Liao Wanyu was also very anxious when she went to the port to send the ship, although she heard the housekeeper over there say that Lin Jiashu didn't have to worry about her life, but a girl could ruthlessly use the servant's scissors to cut her wrist open, what was the reason, she really couldn't figure it out.

Lin Keji was more puzzled than her, after all, he had eaten at the same table with Lin Jiashu before he came out, and the child was already seven or eight percent better than before, and even his temper rarely grew.

Therefore, although the housekeeper said aggrievedly on the phone that nothing happened at home, he still didn't believe it.

Liao Wanyu stood on the pier and watched for a long time, she saw that Lin Keji had boarded the "Antai" of the British-funded Wangu Steamship Company, but still did not leave, and when she got up, she saw Lin Keji waving to her on the first-class deck a few minutes later, which was the only way to return to Tang's house with peace of mind.

In these days, it is not easy to find a job, but Liao Wanyu asked herself if she couldn't put on such a big show as her master, so because of the lack of Tang Tingou in the family, she was bound to dismiss some domestic servants.

First, because there is not a need for so many people, and secondly, the problem of expenses cannot be ignored.

Therefore, after sending Lin Keji on this day, she asked the housekeeper to write a list for her, on which when someone came to the Tang family, whether there were family members other than herself who also worked in the Tang house, etc., were all written clearly in detail.

On the morning of the second day, Liao Wanyu received a list of housekeepers before going to work in Datong Shanghai, and after arriving at the office, she first dealt with several official duties delayed because of Tang Tingou's funeral, and then slowly flipped through it.

The first page is the housekeeper himself, Liao Wanyu took a cursory look and put it aside, after all, the housekeeper has been with Tang Tingou for many years, and there has never been any major mistakes, she has no reason and need to replace people rashly.

The housekeeper's little tricks are like a mirror in her heart, but they are just popsicles and soda money, and when the water is clear, there is no fish, and she doesn't need to worry about the pennies that can't be paid after each purchase.

The personnel in the future are arranged according to the number of years they have worked in the Tang family, and Liao Wanyu will pick out the ones who have been working for a long time, dragging their families and clean hands and feet, and they will not be able to come for a long time, and they are young and strong and still have the ability to find another way to make a living.

In the end, out of the original thirty-two servants, only fourteen remained.

But there are only fourteen, and Liao Wanyu still thinks it's too much.

When I returned home from Datong Shanghai on this day, the dinner that had been prepared in the kitchen was about to be in danger after hearing the rumors, and as soon as I entered the door, Liao Wanyu felt that the atmosphere was a little heavy.

The housekeeper stood not far behind Liao Wanyu and waited for her to give orders, but until he finished eating, he didn't see anything on her face.

Liao Wanyu was stared at very uncomfortable, and after dinner, she reluctantly called everyone to the large living room on the first floor.

More than 30 people, standing in two large rows, everyone looked at me thoughtlessly, I look at you, they are all afraid that they will lose their jobs for many years in a few minutes.

"I'm sure you've all heard about why I'm calling you here today. You have followed Master for many years, and you are all heroes of the Tang family, there is no doubt about this. ”

Liao Wanyu's dark eyes calmly swept over everyone in the first row, "However, the reality of the situation cannot be ignored. Master left the house to me, and I should do my best to maintain it, but I am young, and I am afraid that such a big pomp will be ruined, and besides, the most realistic problem is that I really can't afford to support so many people. ”

She said a lot of words, stopped and breathed a sigh of relief, the living room was quiet, no one gasped in the atmosphere, most of them lowered their heads, trying to reduce their sense of existence, as long as they thought about it, they would not be remembered by Liao Wanyu.

"I have a compiled list here, and the people whose names I read next don't have to go. Stay in the Tang family and continue to work, and the salary will remain the same. ”

After Liao Wanyu finished speaking, she clearly read the fourteen names word by word, most of them were Steward Mai, who had been in the Tang family for many years or two generations of a family who had been working here.

The person whose name was named was obviously relieved after hearing this, and thanked Liao Wanyu again and again, and even worse, he almost knelt down to kowtow to her, but was quickly stopped by Liao Wanyu's eyes.

None of them are older than her, if they really kowtow to her, wouldn't it be a loss of her life......

The remaining eighteen people were obviously not so relaxed, everyone was talking about their merits and importance in the Tang family in the past few years, and some of the younger girls were already sobbing and crying.

Liao Wanyu was most afraid of this kind of thing, she stretched out her hand to let everyone not be so excited for the time being, but obviously, no one would listen to her.

She looked at the person in front of her who was about to tell her about her exploits, and she had to shout "all quiet".

When she was talking at home, she never felt that she was the master, and she was polite to everyone, and she would suddenly raise her voice and shout out, which really calmed everyone down for a while.

"I won't leave you to do things in the Tang family, so I'm not really going to sweep you out of the house." Seeing that everyone had quieted down, she returned to her usual tone of speech, "You have been taking care of Master for some time, and there is no merit and hard work. I have other work to introduce to you, and if you wish, with a little thought, you can learn it quickly. ”

"Want to learn?" A slightly chubby old man at the front of the crowd asked suspiciously, "I'm so old, what else can I learn?" ”

Liao Wanyu looked at him, this person is not yet fifty years old, and he will never reach any "handful age", "If I remember correctly, you are the Liu florist who takes care of the flowers and plants, right?" ”

The old man nodded, panting because of anger, and his two nostrils closed one by one, as if Liao Wanyu couldn't give a satisfactory solution in the next second, and was about to jump up and hit someone.

"Yes, I am a gardener, and the plants in the front and back yards of the Tang family are all taken care of by me on weekdays." He seemed to be very proud when he said this, as if the Tang family was just a gardener.

Hearing this, Liao Wanyu glanced at the little florist surnamed Wang who was left behind, and suddenly chuckled, "Then do you think that you are too old to learn new things?" ”

Liu Huajiang snorted, "Yes, everything in my head was written down when I was young, and now let me learn something to make a living from scratch, doesn't this mean that I want to die!" ”

As soon as these words came out, someone in the standing crowd immediately nodded yes, and Lao Liu felt that someone supported him when he saw this, and he was even more emboldened.

"Who is taking care of the new pots of foreign flowers and plants in the yard?"

Hearing Liao Wanyu ask like this, Lao Liu first stumbled, and then said, "Just a few things that the little cub is responsible for, can't they all be his credit!" He's young and loves to ask for credit.,I'm not the kind of cheeky person.。。 ”

Liao Wanyu nodded in agreement after hearing this, "Since it's not cheeky, then I want to ask, why does Wang Pusheng do it when the sun is at its maximum?" Why is Wang Pusheng doing it when the pest disease needs to be sprayed? Why is Wang Pusheng doing it himself when pruning the branches? ”

She raised her hand and pointed at the young boy with his head bowed on the side, "Why didn't you expect such a day when you were old and relied on the old man to direct him to do things?" ”

Lao Liu was speechless by her question, and stammered after a while, "I ...... It's not always like this, I'm just, my knee hasn't been getting better lately. ”

Liao Wanyu shook her head, "You don't have to fool me, I've been in Shanghai for more than a year, and I don't know anything." After she finished speaking, she looked around at the remaining eighteen people, "Have you ever wondered why it wasn't you who stayed?" ”

She picked up two pieces of paper from the sofa, "When I made the decision to stay or go, I considered many reasons, clean hands and feet and good character are first-class important, secondly, since it is to do things, of course you must be diligent." ”

Liao Wanyu looked at the two young girls in the back row who were silently crying, "Of course, there are also some of you who I think are very good, smart and clever have helped to think of the way back." But in the end, you have to be willing to go. After all, if you want to work in Datong Shanghai, you can't do so-so. ”

Working in Chase Shanghai?

When everyone heard this, they all looked up at Liao Wanyu, and even those who were left behind earlier showed envious eyes. I don't know which one is so good that he can be valued to work in Datong Shanghai.

Although the deed of sale has long been out of business, as long as you are not a fool to work as a servant in a rich family and to work in a bank, you will know where to say it with more identity and face.

A little girl standing at the back was still sobbing and crying, but after hearing that she had the opportunity to go to Datonghu, she silently raised a hand.

Liao Wanyu glanced at her and motioned for her to say.

"I'm willing to learn, my brain is not stupid, those embroidery patterns, or sweater looks can be learned as soon as I learn, can Miss give me a chance?"

Lao Liu turned his head and glared at the girl who spoke, as if she was a traitor.

"I can learn too!"

"Me too."

Someone made a start, and for a while, the younger ones began to scramble to learn.

Liao Wanyu was very impressed with the girl who first said that she wanted a chance, because after Tang Tingou's body was not very good, several soft and comfortable cushions were made by this girl herself.

It stands to reason that no one told her about this, and it was not easy for her to think of it.

Liao Wanyu hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled at her, "Since you are willing to learn, of course I am willing to give you a chance." ”
