Chapter 426: Domineering Subordinate
"Being a brother is used to him!"
The family affairs were entrusted to the general, and the general looked relaxed, looking at his son Chenghuan's knees, but he was also pleased.
But looking at the empty chair beside him, his expression was gloomy when he thought of Fu Yu, and he waved his hand to them and said, "Okay, you all go and get busy, the most important thing is to clean up the house, it's been getting more and more troublesome recently!" ”
Ye Xiaoying hurriedly got up and respectfully responded, and the general suddenly stopped before leaving, turned around, and glanced deeply.
After going back, I still thought about the general's last meaningful glimpse, which was originally relaxed, but I didn't want to disappoint him, and after I returned, I diligently flipped through the account book, and only felt that one head and two were big.
In the past year, the ledger was handled by Fu Yu at first, and many code words even the housekeeper did not understand.
She simply threw the rest aside and said, "I don't care about the previous ones, now the maid ring in the house, the monthly monthly silver, and what they do, you send someone to count them one by one, and submit them when the time comes." ”
The housekeeper looked embarrassed, "There are hundreds of people in the house, so it will take a few days, but now the lord has already become impatient!" ”
If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, instead of letting people go indiscriminately, Ye Xiaoying would rather maintain the current chaos. raised his eyebrows, and his face was gloomy.
The steward was terrified, and immediately left with the ledger in his arms.
"Mother, play with me!" At this moment, there was a little figure lying at her feet, and Guo'er ran in quietly at some point, holding her thighs and shaking from time to time.
Ye Xiaoying looked at the ledger, a mess in her mind, picked him up and sat on her lap at this moment, and asked him with a smile: "What do you want to play?" ”
Guo'er clapped her palms, "Two days ago, there was a mother-in-law who accompanied Guo'er every day, and she was very happy!" ”
A few days ago, everything was messed up in the house, and Ye Xiaoying remembered that Qiuyue said that there was indeed a mother-in-law who approached Guo'er from time to time, and she was an old man in the house.
In this way, she asked Qiuyue to find someone.
The mother-in-law in front of her is half a hundred years old, with a majestic bearing between her eyebrows, and she is a kind old lady when she purses her lips with a smile, but when she returns to Ye Xiaoying's words, her face is serious, and she has a bit of awe-inspiring majesty.
"Slaves and maids serve in front of their ladies, and they usually take care of some errands."
The heart sank, and he looked like a good helper, but it was very likely to be Madame's henchman.
Ye Xiaoying put down the teacup in her hand with a solemn expression, "Madame has always been capable, but now that a mess is in my hands, it's really a headache, if Madame is here, we will also be happy to be idle, and we can concentrate on raising Guo'er!" ”
"What Madame said is exact, Madam Yu is a natural good person to manage the house, and now she is locked up because of her mistakes, the slaves and maids should do their best for the young lady, those maids, the slaves and maids will definitely be able to help the young lady control!"
has been prepared for a long time, although Mrs. Yu was locked up in a black house at this time, the general did not drive her away, maybe she will still be Mrs. Yu's personal slave in the future, Ye Xiaoying does not dare to wait slowly.
Zhou's mother was originally in charge of kitchen procurement, and Ye Xiaoying made her take charge of her old position.
The origin of the big and small maids handed over from the housekeeper Cheng is not only Zhou's mother, but her daughter Chunshi is also serving by the side of the eldest lady, and now she is a first-class maid.
Even her father-in-law takes care of the garden, planting fruit trees, weeding, and supplying fresh fruits of the season.
Looking at it again, I felt that my eyes lit up, and there was a maid named Caizhu who followed the eldest lady, who had been depressed and spoke straightforwardly, which offended many people.
She first asked people to find the beads.
After seeing it, the mood is cheerful, the color beads look quite pleasing, the delicate and simple expression, the round face, at a glance, you can't hide things in your heart.
"The young lady has something to tell the slave and maid to come?"
Seeing Ye Xiaoying smiling silently, she patted her chest and said, "Although Mrs. Yu is not here now, the slave and maid will not be idle, and she will find something to do if she has nothing to do, young lady, don't send the slave away!" The slave's family still expects the monthly silver to support the family. ”
Ye Xiaoying was just a little silent, which attracted so many words from her.
She pursed her lips and smiled slightly, "I'm young, if there is anything inconsiderate, you can mention it, since there is nothing to do for the time being, go to the kitchen first to help the cooks, I think you will be happy!" ”
When she heard this, she immediately grinned in ecstasy, showed a white tooth, and said excitedly: "That's the place where the slave maid dreams of going, but there are enough people in the kitchen, and it's just superfluous to go at present!" ”
"Because Mrs. Yu hasn't come out for a while, you are fine, the kitchen is so important, send more people to help occasionally, or help Zhou's mother buy vegetables, my mother is old, if there is something I don't understand about the accounting, you can also remind you that it is not!"
As soon as Ye Xiaoying said this, she immediately smiled, applauded and said, "Obey the young lady's orders!" But she had only taken two steps, and when she looked back, her eyes flashed, as if she had something to say.
Her jade-like eyes fixed on her face, and Caizhu only swallowed and smiled gratefully.
Originally, Zhou's mother said nothing in the kitchen, but now Caizhu has come, which makes her extremely unhappy, and complains to her old friends in her spare time.
The young lady didn't understand at all, so she transferred the silly girl with Caizhu to the kitchen, knowing that she was greedy and as fat as a pig. I wonder how many good things got into her stomach when we weren't there? ”
"Mother Zhou, you think too much, no matter how ignorant Caizhu is, it is impossible to steal food, and if she is caught, she will not lose half her life. However, it is also true that there are a lot fewer dishes per day than before. ”
"You don't understand that. When the war broke out in the distance, the price of vegetables naturally rose, and there was no feeling in the general's mansion. ”
The nurse opposite Zhou's mother looked relaxed and leisurely, looking at the scenery in the Grace Garden, "All this has its own people in charge to worry about, and we do our work." I'm afraid that the little master has woken up now, so I have to go over and take a look. ”
Mother Zhou grabbed her and said with a pleasant expression: "It's still early now, the child is sleeping heavily, what are you panicking, it's rare for the two sisters to meet, let's talk about it for a while!" ”
Unable to withstand Zhou's mother's enthusiasm, the nurse stopped.
When she woke up in the heavy afternoon, Ye Xiaoying only felt a headache, Qiuyue brought warm water, opened the curtain after washing, and the daughters-in-law outside rushed in.
Ye Xiaoying sat in front of the mirror and dressed up, listening to their reports with a heavy head, and after dealing with it, she had already lost her sleepiness, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Guo'er come to play for a long time.
Take the autumn moon with you. Hearing the sound of the child crying from afar, she was shocked, and hurriedly rushed into the house, kicking the fat calves in the curtain, rubbing her eyes with her fat hands and crying heartbreakingly.
