Chapter 68 Calculation
Xu Shi gave her a blank look: "Are you a fool?" There are ten more maids in her yard, but I don't add an example to her, it is clear that I am deducting her, not to mention that she will resist, Aunt Liu and Aunt Ruan laugh at me, even the old lady will blame me, and it will be spread out, and it will be said by the Ye family who has never dealt with me, wouldn't that be to laugh at the entire Shangrou City? ”
Yu Yan said again: "Then, let those ten maids still be registered in our Peach Leaf Pavilion, and the food and clothes are all in our Peach Leaf Pavilion." ”
Xu Shi glanced at her again: "The master knew about it, and he first offended me!" Which house has no dignity like this, and the subordinates don't eat in their own yards! Besides, I asked a few of them to go, just to spy on Yujun, this meal, get clothes, are all here with us, back and forth, how much time is delayed! Who knows, what Yujun is doing in this delayed time? ”
Yu Yan lowered her head: "Then, my mother can only add an example to her?" ”
Xu nodded: "What about the extra portion, there are ten more maids in her yard, so I will add ten more maids to her." ”
Xu Shi looked at Yan'er, stretched out his hand to hold her chin, and Yin Yin advised: "However, I naturally want to add the best of these ten maids, so that they can enjoy the best." You go and tell Yun'er Sha'er and tell them to complain more about Yujun's injustice, just say, you get too few hairpin rings every month, and say, Yujun gave the best ones to Ruishuang and them, but you newcomers are being bullied. ”
Yu Wan interjected: "If this is the case, Yu Jun will form a reputation for being mean, employing people unclear, and rewarding and punishing people unknown." Moreover, if someone inquires carefully, they will know that these mean-spirited subordinates went out of the courtyard of their mother-in-law, and others will think that Yujun is mean-spirited on the surface, but in fact she is provoking her mother-in-law. There will be a reputation for ingratitude. ”
Xu glanced at Yuwan appreciatively, and Yan'er nodded when she heard this: "The slave and maid understand that the slave and maid will make Sha'er and them complain a lot about Miss Yujun's unfairness if she doesn't give a reward." ”
Xu nodded: "Okay." I'll reward you with something tomorrow, and you complain about her again. Doesn't she like to woo Yucong, I want to see if she has the ability to take out the hairpin ring at the bottom of the pressure box to win over you maids. ”
Xu's head was slightly raised, the moth eyebrows were frowned, and the cheeks were rouge floating with candlelight, which was even more delicate and beautiful, and Xu smiled: "In more than a month, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve, I have to prepare some after-holiday matters, and these days are also very busy, so that the young masters don't have to come to ask for the morning ceremony." ”
Yuwan was puzzled: "Why is this?" ”
Xu said: "For the convenience of Yan'er and them, I can't go back and ask them to walk from Pear Blossom Pavilion to Peach Leaf Pavilion to report the news." If it is like this every time, and there are too many times, it will naturally arouse the suspicion of Rui Shuang and them. Yujun is young and short-sighted, and has never seen these things about inserting eyeliner, but Rui Shuangcai embroidery is considered to be rotating among the maids and women, and she has heard of these means of inserting eyeliner, and they have all become slaves and maids of Pear Flower Garden one by one, but they still come to our Peach Leaf Pavilion every now and then, and it is inevitable that people will be suspicious. Now Yujun doesn't need to come to ask for a morning ceremony, what do I have to say, naturally let Liusang Che'er and them go to Pear Flower Garden to give instructions, so that if the order continues, Che'er can take the initiative to contact Yan'er and them, and if there is any news, Yan'er can tell Che'er. ”
Hearing this, Yuwan nodded slightly: "Madam is really smart." ”
Xu smiled: "Smart? Where can I compare to your aunt Xu Yiya, as a concubine, but she took the initiative to recruit a son-in-law, intervened in the family business of Xufu, and got an additional share of the industry of Xufu Silk Village. It's a beautiful maid! ”
Yu Yan was quite disdainful: "No matter how beautiful she is, she is just a concubine, every time her mother takes us back to the house, she Xu Yiya still has to respect her mother!" ”
Xu smiled astringently: "What about respecting the courtesy, her husband is very good to her, and he will also please the people in the house, her child Yuxue is cute, although she is a concubine, but she will be counted as a concubine, and she can share a lot of Xu's family business in the future, which can be regarded as a bright future." Unlike me, although I am Miss Xu Fuchang and the wife of Wenfu, I have to be blocked by the concubine room from time to time, and I am always on guard, which is really boring. ”
Yuwan comforted: "Madame, why should you mind, forgive Yujun can't escape Madame's calculations." ”
Xu nodded: "I told Yan'er, you go down and go back to Pear Flower Pavilion." ”
Yan'er answered and went out, just as Bao Xin came to meet her, lifted the curtain and walked in quickly, and replied to Xu: "Madam, all the orders are in place, there are many third-class maids in our yard, and now there are ten maids in the yard, so I promoted Ning'er from the third-class maids, Zhi'er two make up for the clothes, Ke'er's lack, as for the lack of Yan'er, Sha'er, Yun'er and others, it will not be filled, the number of second-class maids is enough, and now there are a few, they should also cheer up and do things, and the people in our yard will not be redundant, was complained by Aunt Liu that there were too many servants and too much pomp. As for the third-class maids, heh," Bao Xin said and glanced at Liusang with a smile: "Now there are enough maids in the house, and there are enough servants in the yard, and some of the maids are also old. ”
Liusang knows what Bao Xin said, and if he marries in the future, he may not be able to compete with Bao Xin.
Xu also knew what he meant, just smiled faintly, didn't care, just scolded Yu Yan and Yuwan lightly: "Look at how you two are sisters-in-law, how do you treat your brother-in-law, and why Yucong is close to Yujun but not close to the two of you." Could it be that Yujun has any special skills? Isn't it because you two aren't good enough for him on weekdays? ”
Yuwan knew that Xu was warning Yu Yan, but it was not good to save Yu Yan's face in front of him, so he deliberately brought himself with him. However, in the past, due to Yu Yan's temper and the identity of the eldest daughter, she did not dare to go against Yu Yan, she and Yu Cong are close relatives, naturally blood is thicker than water, and she is happy to see Yu Cong and herself get along in harmony, but every time Yu Yan treats Yu Cong coldly, how dare she smile at Yu Cong.
Now that Xu is speaking so seriously, he naturally nods.
Yu Yan didn't want to cheapen Yu Jun for nothing, making people think that she was not good at handling these relationships, so she naturally had to nod her head and agree.
Xu smiled slightly, seeing that Yu Yan had finally figured it out, he was naturally satisfied: "That's it." Go back to your own courtyard now. ”
"Yes, Mother."
Yu Yan and Yu Wan replied in unison, Xu got up with Liusang's hand, turned his head and instructed Bao Xin: "Go and tell Che'er, let her personally go to Jing Pavilion tomorrow to invite Young Master Yu Cong to Peach Leaf Pavilion for breakfast." ”
