Chapter 362: Rectify the House Rules

Xue'er stretched out her hand again and said, "Third, the state has national laws, and the family has family rules."

As the head of the family, the father should have set an example, and the Dong family has a family rule that men are not allowed to take concubines, but if it is broken by the father, you don't expect your son to follow this family rule in the future.

But why the Dong family has this family rule, I guess it is also because the ancestors of the Dong family understood that concubines and concubines are the root of the chaos.

Therefore, since the father chose to break the family rules, he must set an example, sort out the difference between his wife and his concubine, and deal with the relationship between his sister-in-law and his concubine.

In this way, it will set a good example for children and grandchildren.

I don't think my father wants your children and grandchildren to take care of the foundation you have so hard to lay, does he? ”

Dong Changhe was really convinced this time, and then involuntarily nodded in agreement.

Xue'er put away her fingers: "The last and most critical point, since Chengde is under his mother's name and has become a legitimate son-in-law, then he should respect his mother and should no longer call Sun's mother-in-law."

I don't want my father's three sons, or even more sons, to calculate and attack each other for the sake of family business.

For a family, internal unity is necessary and necessary.

I don't approve of my father asking Sun to teach Chengde, because she will inevitably instill some unhealthy thoughts in her, so it is best for my father to teach him himself.

Of course, this is just my suggestion, and as for what my father thinks and does, I can't force it.

I can only promise you that I will teach the two younger brothers, Hao Ze'er and Qing'er! ”

After a pause, she continued: "Father doesn't have to worry that I will destroy Chengde's growth, after all, he will have a future in the future, and it is better than being a gentleman." ”

Dong Changhe nodded thoughtfully, he was very aware of his shortcomings, and he was always ruthless in front of the little lady.

"I would like to add that in the past, our family was just an ordinary farming family, and the rules were all conventional, and there were no rules and regulations, which were not rules at all in the eyes of outsiders.

But now that your father's identity is different, and your children and grandchildren will inherit your title, the family rules should be carefully considered and slowly reformulated.

No matter what you do, you have to follow the trend, and you have to be appropriate, and so are the family rules.

For example, Sun is a concubine, so she shouldn't get involved in the royal gifts.

Every master in the family should have a monthly profit, instead of spending money as he wants like now.

All of this should be taken into consideration, what does my father think? ”

Since the county government made a fortune, because the first batch of people bought were all official slaves, and there were housekeepers like Aunt Lu and Steward Zou, the subordinates of the county government have always been very well-behaved.

But the masters of the family have no rules and restrictions.

In the past, the Yun family's housekeeper was just chasing ducks to the shelves, and there were no clear rules to speak of.

At that time, Xue'er always looked at this matter and this family as an outsider, and now that eight years have passed, she has integrated into this family, and hopes that the county government can pass it on.

So she put forward these things today, not a temporary idea, but she had such a plan for a long time, and now she is just using the Sun family to say her thoughts.

Xue'er believes that with Dong Changhe's emotional intelligence, he will understand his hard work.

Sure enough, Dong Changhe thought only for a moment and said: "Xue'er is right, this matter will be handled by you, draw up the corresponding family rules, show them to your father, and if it is suitable, it will continue as the future family rules of the county government!" ”

Xue'er smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, I will definitely give my father a satisfactory answer in three days!"

I also hope that Sun will enter the house through the side door in a month, and for the sake of his father's face, there will be no need to entertain guests, after all, his mother has only been dead for three months! ”

Dong Changhe gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "Okay." ”

He understands that there are no rules, no rules, no matter how much he likes Sun, he can't pamper her like before. His mind was now full of how to explain to the Sun family, and he couldn't care about anything else.

After he left, Xue'er asked Qiao'er to find Steward Zou and Aunt Lu.

The two asked Hou Xue'er to give her a seat, and after they sat down, she said, "I have a few things to say about the two of you today." ”

"County Lord, please speak." The two bowed slightly, and said in unison.

"The first thing is to tidy up the two mansions and register all the things, including all the existing things in the county lord's mansion and the county government's mansion, from the mansion to the small one, not to leave even a grain of rice behind.

There are also the existing number of slaves and their duties to be rewritten, including the servants in the Dong Mansion and the two imperial mansions in Changhai County.

This must be done within a month. ”

Both of them are human spirits, and they don't need to think about it to know why the county lord has such a request, and the two of them agreed together.

"The second thing is that I need to re-formulate the house rules, and the next person is based on the original family rules, do you want to add some more?

We can't follow the standards of big cities, but we have to raise them to the highest standards in Changhai County, and add two percent. ”

It's not that Xue'er has so much money that she has no place to spend it, the most important thing is that the standards set by the Yun family when he was alive are too low and can't keep up with the situation.

As a result, many long-term workers quit their jobs at every turn, and low-level workers are too mobile.

Steward Zou and Aunt Lu are not unaware of this drawback, but the Yun family is a dead brain, and they mentioned this matter several times, but the Yun family didn't hear it.

Later, Dong Changhe had to secretly give Zou Steward silver and let him quietly supply the workers and servants. This also caused the end of the Yun clan being set aside.

At this moment, the two had to admire the county lord's eyes, and they both gave appreciative eyes and happily agreed.

After all, the advantage of this is that the county lord is gracious and powerful, and he can easily win the hearts of the people.

Xue'er continued: "The family rules also include the monthly profit of several masters, the number of servants to serve, how many sets of clothes to make every quarter, etc., I have no experience in these, I need you to help me formulate them first, and then I will consider and supplement!"

One thing should not be forgotten, that is, if the county prince marries a stepfamily and takes a concubine, the monthly interest of the stepfamily and the concubine must also be drawn up together. ”

When Xue'er said this, Aunt Lu and Steward Zou couldn't help but straighten their waists, and they both understood the county lord's intentions.

Before Xue'er and the two sons did not have the word of Yueli, everything needed was decided by the Yun family, and there was no standard.

Nowadays, such regulations are necessary, and there is an advantage to doing so, that is, if the county prince wants to take a concubine, he must follow the family rules, so that with the rules, it will save a lot of unnecessary expenses and a lot of trouble.
