Chapter 130: The Daily Life of the Housekeeper (4)
The weather was not very good today, and the north wind was blowing outside, and even the light and shadow on the screen in the house were swaying slightly.
The girl got up and slowly disappeared into the darkness, unnoticed by the two people in front of her.
Shang Guyuan is sophisticated and sleek, Gu Haomian has experience in leading troops to fight, and the two of them are really opponents in this game of chess.
After a game of chess for a long time, the warm tea on the table was cold, and the maid served new tea.
Shang Guyuan picked it up with a smile, but the smile on his face condensed for a moment when he took the tea.
Gu Haomian was aware: "What's wrong?" ”
Shang Guyuan smiled: "This tea tastes good, it must be new tea, right?" ”
Gu Haomian narrowed his eyes, went to study the chess game on the table carefully, and replied lightly: "That's in my shop." ”
"The Gu family still has a shop?"
"Yes, just west of the city, a pot of sky."
……
Since Gu Jin started to take care of the house, the little girl Yunqian really realized that life was not easy.
The young lady wanted to check the account books, so she had to run back and forth between the evening window pavilion and the Ruihe Xuan to get the account books for the young lady.
Miss wants to catch the loophole, and she has to pick up the lights and fight at night to accompany Miss to see those dizzying numbers.
The most anxious is now:
She couldn't find Miss again.
After lunch, the young lady told her to go to the shop outside to get this month's tax bill, and the young lady herself went to Ruihexuan to read the account book.
The young master was playing chess with the merchant boy, and the maid at the bottom said that she hadn't noticed where the second lady went.
Yun Qian held the tax bill and was sweating profusely in the courtyard of Ruihe Xuan.
Just as Yun Qian wanted to go in and ask Gu Haomian about it, Gu Jin's cold voice came.
"Yunqi."
The little girl turned around and saw Gu Jin walking out of the pantry, the girl's frosty color did not change, but at this moment she added some fireworks.
Yun Qian hurriedly greeted him: "Miss, why are you here." ”
Gu Jinli straightened his sleeves and said lightly: "I fried a cup of tea." ”
Yun Qian nodded coldly, thinking that the young lady was thirsty to read the account book here, and the maids of Ruihe Xuan were busy serving the two sons again, so they tired the young lady to make the sencha herself.
The little girl secretly made up her mind that she would always be by Miss's side in the future and not let Miss do her own sencha.
Gu Jin saw that she was holding a thick stack of sheets in her arms, so she asked, "Have you taken it back?" ”
Yun Qian nodded again and again: "Yes, the three shops on East Street and the five shops in the west of the city are all here!" ”
Nowadays, the family of the officials in Bianliang City has a big business, every family has a shop grange, although the Gu family is the home of a military general, but also has a family background for many years, in addition to the grange outside the city, there are a few shops in the city, and the business is good.
At the beginning of the month, the income and expenditure of the previous month had to be checked, so Gu Jin sent Yunqian to take a trip, although Fan Yong pulled the carriage to go, but it also made the little girl tired enough.
Gu Jin looked at her cute appearance of rubbing her shoulders, and couldn't help but feel happy on her face, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Yun Qian was happy when she heard this, and smiled sweetly at Gu Jin: "It's not hard, it's not hard, it's hard for Miss to read the account book here, eh, have you finished reading the account book?" ”
Yun Qian leaned over and looked into the room as he spoke, only to see the vague shadow of Gu Haomian and Shang Guyuan playing against him.
Gu Jin retracted his gaze without a trace, and smiled at Yun Qi: "No, the account book is on the table behind the screen inside, you go and help me get it and take it back to read." At the end, he added: "Be quiet, don't alarm my brother and the little prince Shang." ”
Yun Qian didn't understand why she had to take it back, but the young lady must have her reasons for doing this, and the little girl entered the house softly as she said and took out the account book.
The master and servant left Ruihe Xuan and went to the evening window pavilion.
The evening window pavilion was more lively than before, and the He family stuffed in two maids a few days ago, saying that Gu Jin had now taken over the housekeeper's errand, and there should be a few more people to serve under him.
Gu Jin did not refuse, but only ordered the two maids to do things in the courtyard, only Yun Qian and Peihuan could enter the house, and her personal affairs have been served by Yun Qian herself.
Who knew that Gu Jin and Yun Qian had just come back today, and they saw Peihuan and the two little maids arguing inside, and they were almost off the shelf.
Yun Xuan's eyes were quick, he put down the book he was holding in his arms, and stepped forward to stop the two parties.
Gu Jin only glanced at them coldly, and the three little maids felt a chill on their bodies, and knelt down in the court to wait for Gu Jin to speak.
Gu Jin didn't say a word, and went into the house by himself.
Yun Qian picked up the ledger on the ground and hurriedly followed.
As soon as the door closed, Yun Qian asked, "Miss?" ”
Gu Jin didn't respond, and untied his cloak and put it on the shelf, but his eyes swept to the furnishings in the house.
The teapot on the table changed from blue and white to gold, and there was soot on the floor next to the stove.
Gu Jin took the account book in Yun Xuan's hand, and looked at the table in front of him, his eyes were still faint, but this time he spoke up: "Are those two girls born from a family or bought in?" ”
Yun Qian was stunned, and looked at the suffocating figure outside through the window paper.
"I bought it, I heard that it was a sister, and I have been in the house for four or five years."
is talking about the two maids sent by the He family, one is called Shuqing and the other is called Shurou.
However, the book is not clear, the book is not soft, and when listening to Yuntang's work, he didn't do less things that quarreled with people, and now where did He send two maids, it was clearly a pair of troubles.
Gu Jin had already opened the account book and checked it quite seriously.
She said: "Good girl, I'm very busy, can they leave it to you one by one." ”
Yun Qian was surprised, "Miss, the slave won't." ”
Gu Jin smiled and said softly: "Don't be afraid, you just push the door and go out, saying that I asked you to ask." Just ask the questions about the matter. After a pause, she said again: "I understand, come back to me." ”
The little girl nodded, thought about how Mrs. Liu, who was beside the He family, taught the little girl a lesson on weekdays, and then pushed the door out with all her strength.
Gu Jin turned his head sideways inside, and saw the back of the little girl puffing out the door, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and her eyes showed gentleness.
The teapot in the house had been replaced, but the tea in it was already cold, Peihuan knew that she didn't drink cold tea, and the girl didn't have the heart to wait for refreshments. It can only be sent by Shuqing and Shurou.
Peihuan will come to clean it every day, but there is soot next to the stove today......
Gu Jin's eyebrows fell, she lowered her head and looked at the account book again, but she already knew in her heart why the three maids were arguing today.
After a while, I heard Yun Xuan's timid voice ringing outside the window, but the posture of this questioner was far worse than that of Mrs. Liu.
Gu Jin pursed his lips and smiled, letting Yun Qian play.
If she comes forward to punish the maid outside, it will only make people say that she is relying on the power of the housekeeper to take revenge on the person in front of the housekeeper, Yun Qian is the same maid as them, and the maid's matter is solved by the maid, which is reasonable.
