"That's good, I'm waiting for you to make a full cattle feast, don't let me down."

Meng Wei nodded, and then thought of one more thing, but she was busy cooking to entertain the Fourth Prince and Chu Jingfeng yesterday, so she was so busy that she forgot about it.

"Little Hou Ye, the slave maid has one thing to ask you, that is, yesterday the slave maid went to Xiangyunlou to teach the cook to be the slave's newly accepted apprentice to make spicy little red shrimp, and the slave maid put forward a condition to the shopkeeper, so the shopkeeper said to think about it."

While speaking, Meng Wei looked up without a trace, Ye Zichuan couldn't see any expression on his face, Meng Wei was a little puzzled: "Little Marquis, aren't you curious about what conditions the slave maid put forward to make the shopkeeper of Xiangyunlou embarrassed?" ”

"Tell me, then, what conditions did you make? Isn't it a lion who opened his mouth? ”

Meng Wei only guessed casually as Ye Zichuan, and did not suspect him, and recounted the words between her and the shopkeeper yesterday.

At the end, Meng Wei pinched the corner of her clothes with some apprehension, and asked softly, "Little Hou Ye, do you think it's okay for the slave to say this?" Although this is a business matter and should have nothing to do with the Hou Mansion, the slave maid feels that the Xiangyun Building has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion, even if the little Hou Ye goes there to eat, he also has to give silver, so the slave and maid think that this matter is related to the interests of the Hou Mansion and should be taken care of. ”

"It's nothing for the Hou Mansion to do business with Xiangyun Building, after all, the Hou Mansion also has a lot of shops, but there are a lot of shops in the Hou Mansion, this Xiangyun Mansion is open all over Dalan, and there are countless businesses, and there are many people in Beijing, so even if people know about this sharing, they can't be in the name of the Hou Mansion of the Protectorate."

"The slave and the maid know, and the slave and the maid think so, and this craft is the slave and the maid's own, and the slave and the maid can sell the craft to whoever they want."

Ye Zichuan didn't expect Meng Wei to think so thoughtfully, the relationship between Xiangyunlou and the Protector's Mansion was only known to him, his father, mother, grandfather and the fourth prince, and even the housekeeper didn't know about it.

It was sneaky to contact Xiangyunlou or look at the accounts before, and he was worried that he would be discovered after such a long time, and when the time came, there would be people with other intentions to make some articles, but they didn't admit it, and I was afraid that not many people would believe it.

I have to say that what Meng Wei did did indirectly helped him eliminate a hidden danger.

The more you hide something, the more curious it will be, and you will want to dig out what you are hiding at all costs, but if you are open and honest with the bright side, then others will not be interested in looking at it.

Ye Zichuan pondered for a while, not expecting any drawbacks for the time being, but raised his eyebrows: "You have done a good job in this matter, not only for the sake of the crops, for the benefit of the people, to generate income for them, but also to increase the income of the Hou Mansion, I don't know what reward you want?" ”

Premium?

Although Mrs. Huguo Hou and the little Marquis have often rewarded her during this period of time, she is a little maid, and what she is rewarded with is nothing more than some silver naked gold melon seeds or monthly money, which is very good, but her monthly money is only four yuan this month, and it will be counted as the monthly money of the second-class maid next month, but it is only eight yuan.

The jade pendants she won from Chu Jingfeng before were all saved by her as a maid here, and she couldn't save them for a lifetime.

It's a little bit worse, it's probably a bit of a good thing to eat, drink, and something like that, Meng Wei really doesn't care too much, as long as she wears it comfortably and likes it.

Her dream is to count the money until her hands cramp, how can she be blinded by such a few taels of silver?

Thinking of her little abacus, Meng Wei didn't twist it, but she was a little cautious on her face, and looked at Ye Zichuan with a wrong look: "Little Hou Ye, the slave maid feels that although this proposal is stained with the light of the little Hou Ye, and recommends the spicy little red shrimp in the name of the little Hou Ye, but the slave maid's apprentice is a filial one, and he feels that the big head should belong to the Hou Mansion as a matter of course, but the slave maid has no merit and hard work."

"So what?"

"So the slave and maid thought about it before and after, and also felt that if they didn't want anything, it would make people misunderstand the Hou Mansion, but the slave and maid thought about it for a long time, and if some people with a heart guessed that this matter was the slave maid under the guise of the Hou Mansion, in fact, it was not the slave and the maid who collected the money but the Hou Mansion, then the slave and the maid would be to blame."

Ye Zichuan was stunned for a moment, and he had already heard Meng Wei's voice: "Do you want Xiangyunlou's profit share?" ”

In Ye Zichuan's impression, Meng Wei is not only young, but this skill is undoubted, the reason why he is good to Meng Wei during this time is because compared to the maid who used to be in the Sichuan Courtyard, Meng Wei is knowledgeable and knows how to measure, the most important thing is that he will not want to fly on the branches, and he does not have the kind of look that seems to want to strip naked when he sees him.

In addition, Ye Zichuan also knew that Meng Wei was more of a money fan, so he said that the jade pendant that Chu Jingfeng lost to her before, he thought that Meng Wei would sell it for silver or redeem her deed of sale, and live a rich life by herself.

Although five hundred taels is not much for him, it is worth a lot of money for a little girl like Meng Wei who has less than one tael of silver a month.

I still remember that his mother married a personal maid before Yudie, and I heard that she gave two hundred taels of silver as a dowry, which made many people in the house envious, and I heard that the little maid used two hundred taels of silver to buy a Zhuangzi in a small village near the capital, and she became a small landlord, and she had a good life.

Two hundred taels can be so leisurely, so five hundred taels shouldn't be a problem, right?

Ye Zichuan doesn't have the concept of silver taels, but he also knows that Xiangyunlou has a lot of profits even if the cost is removed every month, just because Xiangyunlou's craftsmanship is good, there is no shortage of silver taels, and there are already branches in many places in Dalan, so how can it be thousands of taels a month, right?

"What do you want so much silver for?"

Meng Wei was only stunned when she saw Ye Zichuan, her expression was not angry except for doubt, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"The slave maid is thinking that if someone doesn't believe it, they want to investigate privately, but they find that the slave maid is a little maid who doesn't have much silver, I'm afraid that she will make another article, on the other hand, the slave maid was poor when she was a child, even if she eats and drinks well in this Hou Mansion, and the clothes are good, but the slave and maid always feel unsteady, and I'm afraid that no one in this world will think that they have more silver, right?"

Ye Zichuan snorted: "You dare to say this." ”

Meng Wei touched her nose, what she said was indeed what she thought in her heart, but she also knew that this Protector Mansion, and this little Marquis might agree, if this was said to Protector Hou, he would definitely not care about such trivial matters.

As for the Lady of the Protector

Meng Wei didn't dare to show her careful thoughts like this.

"What does the little marquis think? Slaves and maids actually don't want much, the fifty percent profit, the slave and maid only need one percent, and it's only the profit of the crayfish, the little marquis doesn't know, this little red shrimp is not always there, only this May and June to October to eat, other times the little red shrimp meat is small and needs to be reproduced, so it is not very delicious. ”
