Grandma Lu used the silver, coupled with the deliberate suppression of the Wu family, this ridiculous incident committed by the son of the son of the West Courtyard quickly subsided on the surface.

Except for a few masters, as well as a few big maids on the west courtyard's own side, who knew the inside story, most of the people in the courtyard next to them guessed that this matter was a romantic debt owed by the second son.

The maid stomped her feet softly, and when she saw those ill-intentioned inquiring eyes, she just wanted to go up and tear the faces of these people, but they really didn't say it on their faces, so she could only sulk.

"Okay, Sister Yurou, don't be angry anymore, Mrs. also gave an order on this matter, no one is allowed to discuss this matter behind her back, those people can only be foolish if they don't know the truth." Diancui looked at it several times, and his eyes were red.

When Yurou heard this, her eyes turned even redder, and she grabbed Diancui's hand and said, "You also believe that this matter was not done by the second young master, right?"

Diancui looked around, nodded and said: "That day, Yin Gongzi was not in the middle of the river, when he came back, the second young master Bai Gongzi went to the west of the city with you, when we returned home, Yin Gongzi seemed to see a woman and hurriedly got off the carriage, as soon as this matter came out, I guessed ......"

"There is finally a brain in this house, the second young master is too kind on weekdays, so that those bold people are so bold behind their backs. Mrs. too, she can clearly make it clear that she doesn't ask the second son to carry the black pot on his back, but he is not allowed to mention it under pressure. Yurou couldn't help but complain.

Dian Cui heard her words, and immediately defended the Wu family: "Madame is also forced to do this, that Yin Gongzi lives in the mansion, and we have to reach out if something happens, can we let him be eaten alive by life without relatives." ”

Yurou was especially angry and said, "Don't mention it, mention Pingbai is angry." "Don't forget to congratulate Diancui, congratulations to her on a good errand.

Although she is still an unqualified maid at the moment, but with this errand, if everyone wants to change their jewelry head to a new one in the future, they have to find her, and she will determine whether the jewelry is really old, how old it is, whether it should be changed, that is, the first-class big girl has to come to her.

Listening to Yurou say this, Diancui couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, Mrs. didn't know if it was to punish her for her recklessness or to test her, she was a little maid who was not even a third-class, how to deal with those maids and women who wanted to bring fresh styles in the future, some maids and women still had heads and faces and couldn't be offended.

"If you think this matter is difficult to handle, go to Grandma Lu and ask her to give you an idea." Yurou patted her on the shoulder and said.

"Sister Yurou has a good idea, I'll go to Grandma Lu here." Diancui's eyes lit up.

Dian Cui took this hot potato to ask Grandma Lu, who was personally boiling the rock sugar pear juice for Wu's small fire in the small kitchen of the east courtyard, and ignored her when she saw Dian Cui coming in.

Diancui stood for a long time with a smile, handed over firewood for a while to fan the small stove, and said that it would be better to put some loquat Chuanbei to suppress cough. When Grandma Lu lost her patience and was about to chase her, Dian Cui hurriedly said what she meant.

Grandma Lu didn't answer immediately, but said unintentionally: "How do you know that this pear juice is boiled to suppress cough?" ”

"A few days ago, I heard my wife coughing, and I seemed to be tired and suffering from the cold." Dian Cui replied seriously.

Grandma Lu was silent, glanced at her, and then said, "Madam asked you to take care of this errand of changing hairpins, what do you think?" ”

"I think it's the lady who wants to train the slaves," Diancui scratched her head.

Grandma Lu sneered: "You are optimistic, you didn't know the sky and the earth was thick a few days ago, and you openly repaired hairpins with everyone in the house, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the workshop, and Mrs. will punish you." ”

Diancui immediately looked sad, she didn't know that it was a punishment, this errand was done well, and if it was not done well, there would be no one on both sides, and the maid who wanted to change hairpins and the workshop Su Xue would blame her.

"That's it, I'll just tell you one thing, there is a charter and rules for doing any errand," Grandma Lu said, "You go." ”

Statutes and rules? Dian Cui smacked these words, "But how can I, a new maid, make rules for people to abide by......" Dian Cui asked distressedly.

"Go for yourself." Saying that, Grandma Lu poured the boiled bright and thick pear juice into a celadon thin bowl, and went to see Mrs. Leave some cui here sighing.

Don't say that others won't pay attention to the rules and regulations, but she won't get those rules at all, in her last life, she was also a dwarf concubine at the end, and she has always been the rule of others, where is her turn to make rules for others to abide by?

And the teacher didn't teach her either......

Teacher!

Dian Cui patted his head, how could he forget the teacher, he would definitely have a way.

When Diancui appeared at the door of Yuan Zhiheng's study, Yuan Zhiheng was studying hard, and outsiders said that except for the eldest young master and Yin Gongzi, the sons and daughters of the West Courtyard boasted that they were chic and uninhibited, but Diancui knew that outsiders had misunderstood, and her teacher was actually extremely hardworking.

"Why are you here?" Yuan Zhiheng frowned and said, "Didn't you say that you should be cautious in your words and deeds in this mansion now." ”

When Dian Cui heard this, he didn't dare to go in, so he only circled around the door frame.

"Come in, do you want to be seen all the time outside?" Yuan Zhiheng scolded again.

"Teacher......" Diancui whispered, and suddenly remembered that Yuan Zhiheng didn't want their master-apprentice relationship to be known by others, so he had to call again: "Yuan Gongzi, I have something I want to ask." ”

"What?" Yuan Zhiheng was still bowing his head and studying the verses.

"I ...... Didn't I repair the head of the jewelry for someone before, and the lady called me ......" Diancui whispered.

"What?" Yuan Zhiheng finally put down the book, and said with a split face: "Didn't the teacher tell you not to be in the limelight, why are you still so reckless, what kind of place is this home, specializing in jewelry business, you still dare to show off your little tricks in other people's land, you ......"

Dian Cui was stunned for a while, that is, in Qianjia Village, sometimes she did something wrong, and Yuan Zhiheng would not reprimand her so angrily. She felt aggrieved for a moment, and tears rolled in her eyes.

"You, huh...... Forget it, just do it, pay attention to it in the future," Yuan Zhiheng saw that she was about to cry, and immediately changed his tone, and said, "Madame, but you were punished?" ”

Dian Cui quietly wiped the corners of her eyes, nodded and shook her head, Mrs. Dao ordered the errand, if this thing is done well, it will not be a punishment......

Yuan Zhiheng put down the book, quietly listened to Diancui's intention, and said for a while, this matter is not difficult to do.

Diancui stayed in Yuan Zhiheng's small study for most of the day, and the early summer was in full bloom, but in the afternoon, the sunlight outside penetrated the translucent window paper, becoming more and more long and soft.

Although Diancui's fingers are rough and slender, the knuckles are clear and powerful, holding a wolf hair on the paper and carefully writing down the rules and regulations of exchanging old hairpins for new hairpins, this time the ideas are basically Yuan Zhiheng's dictation, Diancui has a detailed inquiry if he doesn't understand, Yuan Zhiheng patiently explained.

Yuan Zhiheng is not such a patient and temperamental teenager, but in the face of Diancui, he has always been the most patient, and he only thinks that he has a noble temperament and is responsible to worry about a little girl like this.

Along the way, the elated Diancui, holding the written rice paper, passed the West Courtyard Gate along the way, passed through the verandah flower workshop, crossed the corner gate, crossed the flowing water bridge, and went towards the east courtyard of the house. On the way, when I met a few little maids and asked to change their heads, I met a few mothers-in-law who were also asking, and she only smiled and said that she would wait for me to come back.

Wu Shi took the rice paper from Diancui's hand that began with "Replacing the old head with the new head and the rules and regulations". First asked, "You wrote this?" This character is extremely immature, but it also exudes a delicate aura.

Diancui said a little embarrassed, the handwriting is not good, please don't blame Mrs. In fact, this word is already the most decent one she selected after transcribing it several times.

"All the old jewelry is divided into four categories: three into old, five into old, seven into old, and all old," Wu pointed to one of the pieces on the paper and read: "Three into the old, not suitable for new ones, if you want to change, the weight of the new head is only fifty percent of the original jewelry......

Grandma Lu also came closer to watch, and read it for her wife:

"Whatever is new, gold for gold, silver for silver, gold for gold, gold for gold......"

"Among the subordinates, the first class can be changed once a month, the second class can be changed once every two months, the third class is quarterly, and the other unqualified ones can be changed once every six months......"

……

"Anyone who changes jewelry must be a person in the house, if someone is found to be carrying the old jewelry of people outside the house in an attempt to deceive, he will be fined for half a year, and he will be expelled from the house if he does not change repeatedly."

There are seven or eight such rules and regulations, and Wu and Grandma Lu glanced at each other, and they both saw appreciation in each other's eyes.

"All of this you want to come to?" Grandma Lu couldn't help asking.

Diancui was stunned, and sure enough, as the teacher expected, the lady would ask, so he shook his head and said, "It was the slave maid who consulted the sons of the West Courtyard to write this." Naturally, Yuan Zhiheng taught her this, only to say that the sons of the West Courtyard, there is no need to point out which one, and the ladies will not do much to investigate, but they just think that those sons and brothers can't stand the little girl's begging for kindness.

"You are also honest," said Wu, "and what do you want to get by bringing this to me?" ”

Diancui smiled, and hurriedly patted the fart and said: "Madame is wise, but the slave maid has something to ask, this matter is very important, the slave and maid are just a maid who has not yet entered the ranks, if you meet the grandmother or sister above and come to change the hairpin, how should you deal with it?" I wrote this, I hope that Mrs. can give permission, if you can give another stamp, it would be great. ”

Dian Cui smiled when he said this, with a hint of cleverness and naughtiness in his sincerity, not cowering like those maids who couldn't get on the stage, and he wouldn't be frivolous and out of proportion...... This is Wu's favorite character, and what she asks for is also what she should be, even if she tells Grandma Lu to bring her own seal.

Holding this piece of rice paper stamped with the lady's big seal, Diancui smiled unabashedly, kowtowed heavily to Wu's head, and walked out happily.

"Wait!" Wu called out from behind.

"Madame, you command." Diancui hurried back and waited.

Wu Shi didn't look at her, but only instructed Grandma Lu: "What she said makes sense, a maid who is not in the stream does errands, but it is inconvenient, but she has not been in the house for a long time, so today she will be promoted to a third-class maid." ”

"Yes, madam, the old slave will go and make her a waist pendant and the clothes of a third-class maid." Grandma Lu bowed and said.

In the capital, look at the financial strength of a house, not only look at the master, but also look at the slaves. The waist is not large, about the size of a copper plate, but it is a real jade. The third class is the last class, and topaz is used, the second class is green jade, and the first class is black jade. The next person wears jade as a waist, which few mansions in the capital can do, and the rules of returning to the house are that they have a jade mountain, and the second is that Mrs. Wu's maiden family, the Wu family, is such a rule.

As for the clothes, Diancui used to wear only the very light color of pink, green, yellow, blue coarse cloth clothes, but now that it has risen, not only the color can be slightly heavier, but the material can also be used that fine and soft cotton cloth, and you can even receive a light and delicate gauze in summer.

In addition, it is naturally a monthly case, which used to be three dollars of silver per month, but now it is five dollars. And the rewards that you receive during the New Year's holidays will be abundant.
