Chapter 237

Dongxue brought in not only the slaves and maids of Qingyunju this time, but also Mama Qiao from Zhenghetang.

When Mama Qiao and the housekeeper of Qingyunju appeared in the Xiaohua Hall together, Mama Shui's face changed from blue and white to gray at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the whole person was paralyzed and couldn't get up at all.

Mama Qiao didn't see the group of slaves and maids in Furong Garden, led by Mama Shui, and only looked at Lin Wan who stood up from the Luohan bed with a smile.

Mama Qiao and the housekeeper of Qingyunju each held a few booklets in their arms, and the maids who followed behind were all empty-handed.

This made Lin Wan feel so strange, but there was no show on her face, she stood calmly and watched the subordinates of Qingyunju come in with a smile, and specially instructed Dongxue and Chuncao to show the two grandmothers a seat.

This is a special treatment that even the chief steward has not enjoyed.

However, these two people deserve Lin Wan's such generous treatment.

Needless to say, Mama Qiao is Cai's dowry maid, and she has been waiting for Cai's whole life, not to mention a grandchild like Lin Wan, who is Lin Wenbo's life, and she is also very respectful to Mama Qiao on weekdays.

The old lady of Qingyunju also has a lot of background, she is Luo's grandmother Hu Yang, known as Hu Mama.

Since Luo married Lin Wenbo, this Hu Mama has been assisting Luo in managing the housekeeping of the second room.

In the nine years since Luo went out of Beijing to reunite with Lin Wenbo, it was even more like this that Mama was conscientiously in charge of the housekeeping of the second room for Luo, which shows that Luo has trust Mama Hu.

In the past few days, Lin Wan has finished reading the account book that Luo handed over to her before leaving, and she still admires this Mama Hu in her heart.

Regardless of whether Luo is in the capital or not, Mama Hu has always been conscientious in managing the housekeeping of the second room for Luo.

Every account in and out of the second room has been recorded clearly and clearly, and all of them have been signed and fingerprints by both parties, so that Mama Hu has lived up to Luo's trust and trust in her over the years.

Of course, it can be seen from the books that Roche did not treat Mama Hu badly.

In addition to Mama Hu's money for five or two months every month, Roche will allocate a large amount of silver from the general ledger to Mama Hu as a reward every year.

After reading that book, Lin Wan always felt in her heart that Roche was not ignorant and stupid at least in terms of managing accounts.

This time, Roche was willing to hand over the internal affairs to Lin Wan to take care of, according to Cai's analysis, there are two main reasons: one bright and one dark.

On the surface, Mama Hu is getting older, and if she continues to manage the accounts, I'm afraid that her energy will not be able to keep up.

In addition, because the children and grandchildren of Mama Hu's family have repeatedly proposed to take Mama Hu back to her hometown to spend her old age in peace.

The secret reason is naturally that Luo is worried about her leaving, and Lin Wenhui will hand over the housekeeping of the second room to Aunt Gui, which is absolutely unacceptable to Luo.

In fact, Luo was too worried, even if Lin Wenbo had the intention to hand over the internal affairs of the second room to Aunt Gui, the Cai family would never let such a thing happen, that is, when Luo was not in the capital, the internal affairs of the second room would only fall on Lin Wan's shoulders.

Of course, Lin Wan is just the first stick, and in the end, the person who will take over the housekeeping of the second room will be Lin Hongfei's wife!

Lin Wan pondered these in her heart, Mama Bai helped her analyze them, and Cai's family also spoke bluntly in front of Lin Wan.

Although Lin Wan is just the one who passed the baton, since she took this baton first, she will definitely run this first baton well.

If the people in the second room were obediently acting according to the rules, Lin Wan would naturally not take people for no reason, but if she insisted on bumping into someone like Shui Mama, Lin Wan would naturally not let it go, and she just used it to kill chickens and monkeys.

Lin Wan didn't even give Mama Shui a look, taking advantage of Mama Hu's time when she went to Mama Bai and Chuncao to receive Qingyunju's monthly money, she looked at Mama Qiao with a pair of talking eyes, and then looked at the stack of books on Mama Qiao's lap.

Mama Qiao's eyes smiled at Lin Wan, and then raised her chin at Mama Hu who was counting money, which was telling Lin Wan that Mama Hu had to tell Lin Wan about these booklets.

In this case, no matter how curious she was, Lin Wan had to put down her mind and simply chatted with Mama Qiao about the lotus banquet the day after tomorrow: "Wanwan really wants to follow Mama to Zhuangzi tomorrow, but unfortunately grandmother doesn't allow it." ”

said and pouted, rarely revealing the coquettishness of a little girl of this age.

Cai's family attaches great importance to this lotus banquet, although the Tang family has already sent capable people to Zhuangzi to prepare, Cai's still decided to let Mama Qiao go to Zhuangzi a day in advance to avoid omissions.

Mama Qiao couldn't help but smile lightly when she heard Lin Wan's words: "The old lady cherishes the third girl, and she is reluctant to let the girl suffer a little grievance, no matter how well prepared Zhuangzi is, it is not as good as the house." The third girl has to listen to the old lady obediently, after all, the old lady is for the good of the girl. ”

Lin Wan smiled: "What Mama said is that grandmother's words must always be listened to no matter what." ”

While speaking, Mama Hu had already received the monthly money, and the next step was naturally Lin Wan's recognition of people.

Lin Wan has basically seen these maids in Qingyunju, and there are not many people who stay, so the time is very short.

Seeing that Lin Wan had nothing else to order, Mama Hu asked her to withdraw first, and dropped half of her ass on the round stool under Mama Qiao's head again, and her eyes swept to Mama Shui, who was paralyzed on the ground, and the slaves and maids in Furong Garden, as if she saw who these were, and said with surprise: "Isn't this from Furong Garden?" ”

Mama Bai handed over the matter of sorting out the account books and money boxes to Chuncao, and planned to sit down on the round stool behind Lin Wan to rest, but before she sat down, she heard Mama Hu's words, so she stood behind Lin Wan and glanced at Mama Shui and the others lightly: "Isn't it the people from Furong Garden, who said that Aunt Gui's monthly money should be twenty taels, so the girl asked them to go back and ask Aunt Gui for clarification, but they refused to go back and ask for clarification." ”

"And this? When did my aunt's monthly money in the house be twenty taels?! Mama Hu looked at Mama Shui with wide eyes, as if it was the first time she heard that Aunt Gui's monthly money was actually twenty taels.

Lin Wan thought it was funny, even if Mama Hu was not around when she was in Jizhou before, she didn't know what Aunt Gui's monthly money was, but Lin Wenbo had been back in Beijing for half a year, how could Mama Hu not know what Aunt Gui's monthly money was?

There are records in the account books of the second room, and the handwriting on the account books for half a year is no different from before.

Mama Hu pretended to be stupid, and Lin Wan naturally wouldn't break it.

Mama Hu is Luo's grandmother, belonging to Luo's absolute sworn friend, and Aunt Gui, who made Luo's suffer a lot of crimes, is naturally hostile, Lin Wan, as Luo's biological daughter, even if she doesn't come forward for Luo, it is impossible to favor Aunt Gui.

The first meeting between Qingyunju and Aunt Gui, Lin Wan obviously felt Aunt Gui's hostility towards her.

Now that Lin Wan is in power, no matter how fair she is, at most she will not deliberately stumble Aunt Gui, and she will never do such a thing as speaking for Aunt Gui.

Mama Qiao naturally looked at Mama Shui in surprise: "Aunt Gui's monthly money is really twenty taels?" This, this...... We haven't had any aunt in Zhennanhou Mansion who has ever taken twenty taels of monthly money.

Third girl, you can't break the rules of the house!

No, I have to talk to the old lady about this matter, if this is spread, the second master will have to be involved in a book by the imperial envoy, this is a major event that affects the future of the second master! ”

Mama Qiao's words suddenly pushed this matter to the height of endangering Lin Wenbo's official career, Mama Beishui was frightened, even Lin Wan was shocked by Mama Qiao's hand, it turned out that the monthly money could still go up to such a height!
