Chapter 358 - Add Manpower
Xiao Jingyuan also plans for Zisu everywhere, which is to pave the way for her to open up the situation in the circle of noblewomen and nobles in the capital.
"Yes, grandfather, granddaughter understands, I also have a few capable people under my hands, and I will definitely not lose my grandfather's face when the time comes."
Zisu is actually very clear about the relationship between the two mansions, don't look at the usual times the two mansions don't move around much, but in private, they are close and tight, otherwise Lao He Guogong would not be able to send his eldest son to Xiao Jingyuan's men to experience and grow.
"Well, there are a lot of capable people under your hands, and my grandfather is hot when he looks at it, tomorrow let the second housekeeper call the embroidery lady and the people in the jewelry building, dress up your sisters and brothers, and let them open their eyes, my grandchildren of Xiao Jingyuan are better than their finished things!" Xiao Jingyuan slapped the coffee table, and this matter was settled.
There was nothing to say all night, and after breakfast early the next morning, Xiao Zhong, the second housekeeper, brought three embroidery girls, a treasurer of the treasure building, and a master to give Zisu sisters and brothers the size of the measurement, and the selection of jewelry.
Fortunately, Xiao Zikang, a boy, is easier to handle, they are all ready-made, Zisu is different, this head jewelry can't be the same as the lady in Beijing, and the shopkeeper also feels tricky, but this is the Miss of the Protector's Mansion, if this is on this line, their treasure building is a big income.
"Miss, try to deliver these small ones in five days, let the masters work overtime, please rest assured." The shopkeeper of the treasure building accepted the pattern and said respectfully.
"Well, it's a problem for the shopkeeper, Xiaoxiao." Zisu called Xiaoxiao, and Xiaoxiao took out a few purses and rewarded them to the embroidery girl and the two of Zhenbaolou respectively.
"Thank you for the reward, the little ones will retire first." The shopkeeper of the treasure building and the embroidery girl who came with him all went down.
"Sister, it's really uncomfortable to be this big young master, you have to follow the rules when you speak and act, it's better to be a little young master in Ming'an, eat and sleep for a long time, like a little pig." Xiao Zikang's little bun face is a little flat.
"This is unavoidable, Kang'er, you remember, you are the grandson of your grandfather, the eldest young master of the Protector's Mansion, these are your responsibilities, and although you are not very old, however, my sister knows that you are very early and wise, you are a little man, you must know how to take responsibility, you can rest assured, those little guys around you have been trained by your sister herself, and they will definitely protect you and help you when the time is right."
Zisu knows that it is a little too much pressure for a nine-year-old boy to face an unfamiliar environment, strange people, and huge pressure and challenges, but the young eagle will one day soar by herself, and she, as a sister, should just escort him, instead of sheltering him from the wind and rain.
"Well, sister, I know, I will do it well, my grandfather is such a powerful hero, I will be a big hero like my grandfather in the future, how can this little thing scare me!" Xiao Zikang patted his little chest and was full of confidence again.
Zisu smiled and nodded, this is the power of role models, boys still have to have a male elder as a guide, which cannot be replaced by his sister, and it is also of great benefit to his younger brother's character and the formation of three views.
"Master, the person you are looking for has already arrived, and is waiting in the side hall with someone, so come over now?" Xiaoxiao waited for the Su sisters and brothers to finish speaking, and then stepped forward to reply.
"Well, let's go, by the way, did Chu Yue say when he will come back?" Zi Su sent Chu Yue to follow the purchasing steward in the house to go out to buy some things to entertain guests on the day of recognizing their ancestors and returning to their ancestors.
"Back to the master, Sister Chu Yue said that this banquet should be made special, there are some ingredients that are not easy to obtain, and I will come back later." Tiny continued.
"Well, okay, then let's go and see, there are so many people missing in this house all of a sudden, we have to make up for it, otherwise, when the guests are here, it will be too late, and we have to train for a few days, right?" Zi Su lifted the step on his head and went to the side hall.
"Little Li Si'er said hello to the eldest lady." A middle-aged man with a thin figure saw Zisu coming in with Xiaoxiao, and hurriedly saluted.
Now that the whole capital has spread all over the city, the newly recognized Miss Yan of the Protectorate Mansion is a two-handed one, and she has thrown out the family in the second room by dividing five by two, and there has never been any rumor of damaging her reputation.
This is amazing, it can be seen that this young lady has some skills, and it is better to be careful to serve this little person, after all, I am not sure whether this eldest lady's temperament is not.
"Get up, I won't have to trouble you in the future, but there are some people in the house, let's talk about all the people you brought, if there is any use, I will stay." Zisu sat on the main seat and took a sip of tea.
"Yes, eldest lady, the housekeeper has already instructed, there are a few first- and second-class maids in the house, a mother-in-law who sprinkles and sweeps, and some obedient little maids, and the villains have brought over all of them have been trained by special personnel, please take a look at the eldest lady."
Li Si'er secretly glanced at Su's appearance and bearing, and lowered her waist by two points, this eldest lady doesn't look like she grew up outside, but like a lady who was raised in the capital when she was a child.
Don't look at Li Si'er as just a person who trains people, but this vision is very unique, if this eldest lady can also raise such a full-body style in the countryside, then, compared with the ladies in the capital, there will be more means, not to be underestimated, in the future, this capital will be even more lively.
Li Si'er is indeed a good worker, and the maids and maids brought are relatively good, Zisu left a lot of manpower, and asked some questions, so he asked Xiaoxiao to take Li Si to settle the bill.
She picked four second-class maids and four third-class maids by her side, and added some maids and servants to the house, and they obeyed orders.
I chose two retinues for my younger brother, added two servants to my grandfather's side, and added a few more people to the kitchen, which are all places that have been dealt with before, and they still need to be replenished by manpower.
As for the first-class maid beside Zisu, in addition to being small, Chu Yue has already prepared it, and has been trained for more than half a year, and said that it will be sent over this afternoon to give Zisu a purpose, so there is no need for Zisu to worry.
"In the future, you will serve by my side, it is naturally good to be clever and intelligent, but remember, keep your duty, the only way is to be loyal, but you have to take it well, don't lose it, I don't want you to see my methods, you know?"
Zisu's eyelids raised slightly, and he looked at the eight second- and third-class maids he chose, all of whom were fourteen or fifteen years old, not to mention their appearance, but also from a small jasper, after all, they were all people who served by their side, and if they were too ugly, it would also affect their appetite.
"Yes, Miss, the slaves will not dare to do something ungrateful to their master." The eight maids knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and the words they said were all neat, it seems that this Li Si is still a trainer.
"Well, it's small, let's enjoy it!" Zisu nodded, and Xiao Xiao took out the purse that had been prepared a long time ago, one for each person, regardless of second and third class, and each person was rewarded with five taels of silver, plus some small silver peanuts.
"Miss Xie!" took the last time, the tone of the eight people was not arrogant or impatient, and the rules were not bad, which made Zisu very satisfied.
When Chu Yue came back, she brought back five girls who were dressed exactly the same, and they were all about fourteen or fifteen years old.
"Master, this is a personal maid prepared by the slave maid for you, all of them are personally selected by the slave and maid, Ling has personally trained his skills, two of them are also proficient in medical science, and they can give the master a start, and the rules and actions have been trained by the old lady, master, are you still satisfied?" Chu Yue flashed to the side, and the five girls knelt on the ground and saluted, calling their masters.
"Raise your head!" Zisu took a look at these five girls' homes, they were really good helpers, and they could see from their eyes that these people were all capable and resolute people, and they didn't know where Chu Yue and Ling found these five people, right? A thought flashed through Zisu's mind, I'm afraid it's someone who came out of the same place with Ling and Cang, right?
"Okay, this is small, in the future, you will all be first-class maids by my side, you must love each other, I don't like people around me to scramble, get up, reward." Zisu nodded, and let Xiao Xiao appreciate something.
"Listen, the fourteen of you are serving around me, and the people around me know that I don't have much to ask for my subordinates, as long as I serve loyally, I have your benefits, and when I reach the age in the future, I will be released to marry, and be a serious lady, if I have any crooked hearts, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless."
Zisu is talking about ugly things ahead, Li Junwei is confident, but if there are people around her who are not afraid of it, they can't be stunned.
"Yes, master (eldest lady), slave and maid understand!" The fourteen girls knelt on the ground with their heads on the ground, and this confession of the Lord was over.
"Master, slave maid, slave maid is afraid that she will not be able to do this kind of maid, you better let the slave maid be second-class." Waiting for less, Xiaoxiao bit his lip and said.
"You stupid girl, the master trusted you to stay by your side to serve, we are all people who have followed the master all the way, are you going to throw the master aside and enjoy yourself yourself?" Chu Yue pushed his small shoulder.
"Sister Chu Yue, I didn't mean that, I am, slave, master, me." Xiaoxiao is not a person of good words, and he can't speak now.
"Xiaoxiao, Chu Yue is right, you were the first to follow me, you used to serve me the most in the small courtyard of the Xiao family, and you didn't worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation."
"You also know my temperament and habits best, although there are so many people added at once today, how can it be easy to use, and you have to help me take care of some clothes and jewelry." Zisu, this can be regarded as handing over Xiaoxiao's best to her.
