Section 60, Chapter 53 Procurement

"How is everything in this big kitchen sourced?" Mengyu pondered his words and asked.

"Back to Miss San's words, the commonly used oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are sent by special people, and after the monthly statistics, the store will go to the account office at the end of the month to pay the money. If it is abalone ginseng wing belly, bird's nest supplements and other precious ones are all purchased by Bai Er's manager personally at the Sihai dry goods store in the west of the city. As for the vegetables on weekdays, there will be a few familiar vegetable farmers who pick the vegetables and settle the money every day. The Zhao family lowered their heads and explained the operation of the big kitchen in detail. In fact, she didn't take over this mess for long, and this is indeed the case on the surface. Don't look at her current appearance, the moon silver has risen, and the oil and water are also a little. But if you are not careful, how many people will sharpen their heads to look at her jokes and take her place. This second manager Bai usually touches and takes it lightly, but now he has made the third lady pay attention to her big kitchen, since her boat is unstable, then she has to let him sway down.

"Zhao family, although oil, salt, sauce and vinegar is a trivial matter, you must also prepare an account for each delivery, and when the store comes to pay the money at the end of the month, you must reconcile with you before you can receive the money."

"Yes, the slave will do what the third lady says from now on." It seems that she has to find a literate person to help her keep accounts and reconcile them.

"If the furniture in this kitchen is damaged, how do you deal with it on weekdays?" Mengyu gently and skillfully let go of the second manager of Bai Er, although he relied on his father's blessing, he might have stayed on this son for so long and did not fall to the ground, presumably there must still be two brushes.

"If you return to the third lady, it is generally who breaks it and who deducts the moon silver."

"Will it be inconsistent with reality?"

If the answer "this ......" is yes, doesn't it mean that she is not doing her duty? But there will always be some gaps every month, and no matter who does the position, it can't be avoided. But if the answer is no, the wife will be in charge again after she is pregnant and has a child, and there will be a long, long period of time, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be discovered by the third lady in the future. The Zhao family suddenly had some difficult births.

"It's okay, you just tell you the truth."

"There will always be some differences. If someone breaks the dishes, there happens to be no one next to them, and they deal with it quietly, they will naturally not be able to find it. ”

"Then I'll think of a way for you, whoever is on duty the next day and finds that something is missing, even if it is on the head of that person yesterday." Supervising each other in this way should make better progress, right?

"The third young lady is wise." If you want to sit firmly, you naturally have to shoot well.

Mengyu felt that there was nothing to ask, and she wanted to go out to the west of the city to see the dry goods store in the four seas, so she said: "Since you feel that there is nothing to deal with in particular, then go back to your respective posts and do what you have to do." ”

"Yes, Miss Three." Even Chief Manager Lin, who was sitting next to him, also stood up and replied.

Mengyu left the chamber with Apricot and Tao'er and went directly to Xile Ju.

"Grandmother, Dream Whisper has come to greet you."

"Good boy, is the House all over?" The old lady looked at Mengyu with a smile on her face.

"Well, there's nothing special." Mengyu pouted.

"How does that feel?"

"There's a lot of mess! Grandmother, I'm here to tell you that I'd like to go west of the city. ”

"What are you going to do there?" The old lady looked at Mengyu suspiciously, where can the girl's family go out casually.

"Mengyu is going to check something and will be back soon?"

"Investigation? If there's something you can't solve, tell your grandmother and she will help you figure it out. The old lady took Mengyu's hand and persuaded her.

"No, since Mengyu took over from her mother, she naturally has to bow down to everything, and she always troubles her grandmother, so it seems that Mengyu is too useless." Mengyu shook the old lady's hand and said coquettishly.

"This, then you can take a few more people, go to the west of the city and come back. Don't go to crowded places. The old lady thought that one day Mengyu would marry out of the house, and it would not be good if she became a nerd who didn't know anything. The shops in the west of the city are all people who are either rich or noble, so be careful, there shouldn't be any major problems.

"Yes, I see. Dream Whisper will be careful. ”

Sitting in the carriage of the Lin Mansion, the coachman began to go to the west of the city, and the dream whispered that she had just walked on the front foot, and the head of the Lin University entered the Xile House on the back foot.

"The old slave greets the old lady." Manager Lin bowed to the old lady and knelt on the ground.

"Lin An, hurry up, we don't have to hold this ceremony."

"Thank you, old lady." After Mr. Lin got up, he said again.

"Originally, you are in charge of the affairs of the inner and outer mansions on weekdays, and the old body should not trouble you anymore. It's just that I really don't worry about the third girl, I'm afraid that she will suffer a loss at a young age and leave a shadow in my heart. That's why I'm going to take care of you more. ”

The top and bottom of the Lin Mansion still have a lot of respect for this Chief Lin. The subordinates only know that Mr. Lin's life was saved by Master Lin, so he is grateful to the master and is a diehard loyalist of the master. But I didn't know that that day, Master Lin, who was out of the city to run errands, met robbers halfway, and there were only four sedan chair bearers around him, unarmed, so naturally he couldn't beat a group of robbers with swords. happened to meet Lin An passing by, Lin An was originally a person in the rivers and lakes, and there was no problem at all with a dozen picks. It's just that at that time, Lin An was already deeply poisoned, and after forcibly fighting the robbers, his breath was even more disordered, and his face turned purple and fell to the ground.

Immediately, Master Lin immediately looked for someone and carried Lin An into the mansion. At that time, Mrs. Lin, who was Mengyu's biological mother, knew what had happened, and went to ask Dr. Jiang for help, who was temporarily staying in Kyoto. Lin An thought that he was going to die, but he wanted to accumulate some merit for himself before he died, but he didn't know that God would not accept him and saved his life. He felt that his rebirth this time was an extra favor from God, so he begged Master Lin to take him in. Master Lin naturally readily agreed to the request of his life-saving benefactor and treated him as a guest. Lin An was ready to cut off his previous life, let Master Lin give him his name, and enter the Lin family's domestic slaves.

Therefore, although Lin An is a slave of the Lin Mansion, his identity is different, and he is naturally respected by everyone, including Mrs. Lin, who knows the truth of the matter.

"The old slave should obey the old lady's orders. It's just that the third lady is new to the city, and some troubles are certain. Lin An lowered his head, looked at the old lady, maintained the posture that a house slave should have, and replied to the old lady.

"Trouble? As soon as the third girl came to the old body, she said that she wanted to go to the west of the city, but she refused to tell the old body what she was going to do. Is something happening in the Chamber today? ”

Today, the third lady approved Cui Quan's request to repair the railing in the garden, and rejected the reconstruction of the deserted pavilion in Beiyuan. I also asked some things about the big kitchen in detail, and asked some questions on the books. As for the west of the city, it was the Zhao family, the manager of the big kitchen, who said that the precious things in the house were all purchased by the second manager of Bai Er in the west of the city, and the old slave felt that the third lady should go to investigate the matter. ”

"The three girls are a little anxious." The old lady said with a frown.

"There are indeed some problems in the west of the city. It's just that the second head of Bai is entrenched in the mansion, and if the third lady is ready to take this person down, I'm afraid she will suffer some losses. Lin An told the truth.

"Or, the old body immediately ordered his subordinates to intercept her back?" Everyone knows something about the affairs of Mr. Bai Er. It's just that he didn't do too much on the surface, so he naturally let him go. Who knew that Mengyu didn't move, but went straight to him, and the old lady naturally began to worry.

"That's not necessary, today is only the first time that the third lady has come to the chamber, so he shouldn't dare to make any moves. The old slave felt that the third lady still had some ideas in some aspects, but she was young and naturally reckless. In the future, the old lady reminded the reminder, that is. ”

"This is natural, you also watch her more, don't let her get into any trouble, I really don't know if there will be any problems with the third girl's trip to the west of the city." The old lady looked out the door worriedly, knowing that she shouldn't have answered Mengyu's request just now.

"Don't worry, the old lady, when the third lady comes back, she will naturally know, and the old slave feels that at most, it is just nothing."

"Well, that's fine. I'm tired too, so stand down. The old lady waved her hand with a tired face.

Lin An retreated.
