Shen Congyi wrote down the first rule.

Han Jiang continued: "The second one is called a CD. That is, in each small courtyard, how much to eat, how much is ordered to be made, and how many dishes are put on a table and thrown out every day? Our Han family wants to regain the prestige of the famous family, a porridge and a meal, when thinking about where it comes from, half a thread and half a thread, and the constant thought of material resources is difficult, I am afraid that this dress has not been worn for several years. ”

"Yes, the old slave understands." Shen Congyi knows very well that a famous family must have the prestige of a famous family. "It's better to be hungry than to waste food."

"It's a bit extreme, but I think it's good." Han Jiang is supportive.

Han Jiang went on to say the third article: "The third article, all the purchases and orders in our house. You also have to have a rule at home, and you can't pick it up when you are told to do it. Beyond the plan to be approved, Mrs. Qi is in charge of the backyard, and the small courtyard wants to get some silk, so she can't directly order someone to take it directly. ”

"Also, it doesn't matter which one was originally purchased outside. From now on, shop around, three quotations, three samples, three evaluations, and finally choose the most suitable purchase, do not buy the cheapest, do not buy the most expensive, only buy the best cost performance, fair and open, so that there is nothing to say inside and outside the house, no thorns to pick. ”

"Understood, the old slave will do it."

Han Jiang then said to the guest: "The guest is here, let's treat the guest according to the courtesy, we are not a poor family, there is no need to pretend to be poor, but the guest is as he pleases, so this disc makes the guests also abide by it." The food in Qianfu is not delicious, because of the poor materials, but who would say that Qianfu neglects distinguished guests, and will only praise the Qian family for being thrifty. ”

"Our family has our frugal way, luxury is still the same, but not wasteful."

Shen Congyi and Mama Rong responded together: "Understood, let's do it." ”

Shen Congyi and Mama Rong gave a salute together, and then retreated.

Outside the house, Mama Rong sighed lightly: "I'm afraid that the backyard is for these three new rules, and there will be no fewer people who complain to the lord." ”

Shen Congyi replied very calmly: "Have they forgotten Wei and Juanniang." ”

"That's right." Mama Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a disturbance in front, the Wei family was driven out of the house, Juan Niang is still under house arrest, and several of the maids and grandmothers around her who did evil were killed.

Right now, in Han Mansion, there is no one who can suppress Han Jiang.

Han Yanxuan connived, Han Tongqing didn't care, and the wives of these two people have passed away and have not renewed their wives. No matter how old the lady is, she is also a concubine, who dares to suppress Han Jiang.

Shen Congyi suddenly stopped: "I thought about it just now, and if you follow these three rules, the house will save a lot of money a year." ”

Mama Rong also reacted: "It seems that this can save a lot." ”

Shen Congyi clapped his hands lightly: "Just do it, you can relax a little bit of monthly money, get stuck according to this new rule, and give both grace and power." After all, our Han Mansion was also a famous family. ”

"Yes, a famous family must have the rules of a famous family."

Early the next morning.

The guests have not yet come, and the Han Mansion is already wailing.

The new rules do not affect high-ranking servants and long-term servants, and have nothing to do with ordinary subordinate servants and short-term servants. On the contrary, the monthly income of these people has risen by about 10%, as long as they do not waste food, the rest is the same as before.

The most affected are Han Yanxuan's more than 40 concubines, as well as their high maids and housekeepers.

While eating breakfast, Han Yanxuan listened to Mrs. Cheng tell him about the farce in the backyard in the early morning, and it was Mrs. Cheng, one of the four ladies, to be in charge of the backyard in the first half of this year.

Dipping a boiled egg in water and putting a little salt in his mouth, Han Yanxuan smiled.

Mrs. Cheng peeled another egg and put it on the plate and said, "Mei Niang's courtyard is considered to have collided today, and I asked for three porridges, eleven side dishes, and six dim sum in the kitchen early this morning." Mama Rong was staring at her yard, she could eat so much. ”

Han Yanxuan just smiled.

There are standard books in the back kitchen of the Han Mansion, and there are a total of 113 kinds of porridge recorded, and some of the porridge materials are very expensive, so the porridge taken in the kitchen is different according to different status levels.

Mrs. Cheng suddenly found that the plates on the table were empty.

Han Yanxuan didn't have any breakfast left over from the breakfast he wanted, and the last clear water egg was already in Han Yanxuan's hand.

Han Yanxuan finished eating the egg before asking, "What porridge?" ”

"I heard that it is fish maw barley porridge, five-flavor meat porridge, and seven-flavor vegetarian porridge. The dim sum is ......" Mrs. Cheng was about to report, and Han Yanxuan raised her hand to signal to stop: "The rules are the rules, and the rules must be set carefully." I don't remember that according to the old rules in the house, she could drink these three kinds of porridge, take care of it. ”

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly got up, and she could hear that Han Yanxuan's tone was already stern.

It's not just the backyard, it's the kitchen.

Mrs. Cheng stood there nervously and wrote it on her face.

Han Yanxuan turned sideways: "You don't understand? ”

"Concubine!" Mrs. Cheng really didn't know how to answer.

Han Yanxuan said: "There are not many people in the entire Lin'an Mansion who don't scold our Han Mansion, and it is not an overnight effort to reorganize the door, but it has been accumulated over time and changed from bit by bit." What is a famous family? Fame, wrong. It is a family that everyone must learn from the future, and every word and deed convinces the world. ”

Mrs. Cheng curts: "What the lord said is that the concubine should restrain the family. ”

"Yes." Han Yanxuan nodded silently.

At this time, another courtyard.

Han Jiang was having breakfast with Han Tongqing, and Han Jiang wanted to ask about the salt merchant.

Han Tongqing said: "Let's not talk about the salt merchant first. The sick cow has been found, and someone from the Zhang family will come over today. I ask you, if you want to be a good person, you have to put on the skin of a good person. ”

"Hey, hey." Han Jiang laughed dryly: "Who defines good people and bad people?" ”

"That's right." Han Tongqing agreed with Han Jiang's statement, and then asked: "That cowpox really can't kill people?" ”

Han Jiang put away his smile: "Brother, I am Han Jiang, not Li Xing." Do you say that Jiawang Zhao has read many books? ”

Han Tongqing replied: "Many, no one in Lin'an Mansion can stand out." ”

Han Jiang pointed to himself: "I'm on his right." ”

Han Tongqing was stunned for a moment, and then nodded silently, in terms of knowledge, Han Jiang was crushing Zhao Kuo. Han Tongqing asked: "Really won't die?" ”

"Yes, but one out of 100,000 people is considered unlucky. The truth is that the damage of cowpox is limited to the location of the pox, and then it will have a fever, even if you have smallpox, it is possible to solve smallpox within ten days. But the principle and pharmacology, I am completely different, I only remember that I was not allowed to see the wind at that time, and it hurt a lot for about eight days, and the rest was nothing. ”

Han Tongqing stretched out his hand and pressed Han Jiang's hand: "Plant, plant now." Immediately extract the pox from the sick cow and start planting it right away. ”

In such a hurry?

Han Jiang was a little incomprehensible. "Why? There is no hurry to do this for a day or two. ”
