Chapter 43: White Jade Guanyin
And this is still a careful job, you can't make mistakes, you can't omit it, otherwise you will be missing someone, and you will have to be regarded as someone you have offended at that time.
Just thinking about it, Zhiqi's legs and stomach are already a little trembling, this is the rhythm that will tire her to death.
But thinking about it, at this time, she didn't dare to show embarrassment in front of Yu Wanning, so she had to bow her head and respond, so she hurriedly did it, and she didn't dare to delay for a moment.
Looking at Zhiqi who was in a hurry to go out, Xue Jing couldn't help but spit out her small tongue.
smiled: "This kind of work, leave it to Zhiqi to do it alone, I'm afraid I'm going to tire her to death." ”
"No way."
Yu Wanning said lightly while flipping through the account books: "If there are more than one person, in case of omission or misreporting of anyone's trouble, the people who do the work will inevitably pass the buck to each other, it is better to leave it to her alone, and if there is a problem, just look for her alone." ”
"In the end, Miss loves me and Moli."
Xue Jing said with a smile while burning incense: "Fang Cai Mo Li also said that Miss can tell us if she has something, I'm afraid that this kind of thing will not tire us to death." ”
"If only I knew I felt sorry for you." Yu Wanning stared at the snow mirror with slight disgust.
The master and servant were talking and laughing, and Mo Li talked back and forth from outside: "Miss, the executive's house has arrived, and because Miss is telling Zhiqi something, the executive's family is waiting outside, now call him in?" ”
"Call in."
Yu Wanning raised her hand to stop Xuejing's hand that was about to help her pinch her shoulder, straightened her back and sat down, and told her to make tea.
After all, he is a housekeeper, and he still has to be treated appropriately.
As soon as the executive's family came in, Xuejing moved a stool over, invited him to sit down, and busily served tea.
Yu Wanning was not polite with the executives, and asked him directly: "I heard from A-Niang today that A-Dad originally saw a white jade Guanyin and wanted to invite him to give his grandmother a birthday gift, but is there such a thing?" ”
"There's such a thing."
Although the executive's family is nominally a family slave in the General's Mansion, he fought with Yu Deling in his early years, but later his family had a total of four brothers, three of whom sacrificed their lives for the country and buried themselves in the frontier, leaving only the executive's family as a lone seedling.
The old man in the family was really sad and missed, so Yu Deling transferred him back to Beijing, helped him run some errands in the house, received a salary to support his family, and it was convenient to go home to take care of his parents in his spare time.
Therefore, the bearing of the executive's family is by no means comparable to that of ordinary domestic slaves.
At this time, after listening to Yu Wan's words, he only owed a little and said: "The white jade Guanyin, originally a merchant in the east of the city spent a lot of money from the skilled craftsmen in the south to ask for it, and asked the master of the big Buddha temple outside the city to chant and pray for blessings for six months, before he invited him home to his grandmother to worship the Buddha, to the winter moon, the old man died at the age of ninety-seven, and when the crane left, he asked his family to find a pious person for this white jade Guanyin, and he should not be slow.
It's just the nature of a businessman, naturally you still have to charge a lot of money before you are willing to change hands, the old man saw the white jade Guanyin once, first of all, he felt that the quality was excellent, and he had received the incense and prayer of the Big Buddha Temple, and more importantly, the original letter girl was more than 90 years old, and it was an excellent color, so I wanted to invite it to the old lady, but the price was too high, and the old man was worried about it for many days. ”
"Now the problem is solved."
Yu Wanning said with a smile: "Copying a lot of money from the Sun family, it is not difficult to invite a white jade Guanyin." You and my side have paid for the silver, so I will go and ask for it today. ”
"Yes, the minion understood."
The executive's eyes flashed with a hint of appreciation, put down the teacup, and went out with Mo Li.
Seeing the executive's family leave, Xue Jing hurriedly came over to help Yu Wanning sit on the soft collapse, and hugged her a soft pillow to make her sit more comfortably.
Then he gently patted her waist and asked, "Is Miss tired?" ”
"It's fine."
Yu Wanning smiled: "Speaking of which, I'm not so squeamish, but this time I see people doing things, I am much more restrained than when I was alone in the house in the past, and I am not used to it." ”
Speaking of which, when Yu Wanning was in the palace in the previous life, he also took care of the house, but he couldn't do without a literate attendant to serve by his side.
I have long been used to this kind of thing, but later I became a queen, but I was idle, because my aunt Empress Dowager Yu held power, her queen was just an empty shelf, and she couldn't interfere in anything, so she could only rely on learning incense to pass the time.
It's been three years since I was reborn.,Although I've never relaxed in my studies.,But everything is up to your own nature.。
When I went back to the house, I leaned on it, I haven't sat in such a precarious position for a long time, and I haven't gotten used to it for a while, and after a while, it should be fine.
Mo Li came in from outside and said, "Miss has seen someone to order errands after lunch, and she has not been idle for a moment, it will be dinner time, will you go to the dining room now?" ”
"I don't want to go ......"
Yu Wanning wrinkled her nose, showing a rare hint of her little daughter's coquettishness, crawling on the table and saying: "I'm too tired and don't want to move, Moli, you go back to A-Niang, tell her that I have dinner in my house today, and when Daddy comes back later, I will go to the middle courtyard to say goodbye." ”
"Yes, then after I go back to Madame, I'll go to the kitchen to fetch food for Miss." Moli Road.
"Well, go ahead." Yu Wanning nodded with satisfaction.
After Mo Li went out, Xue Jing twisted a hot towel and wiped Yu Wanning's face and hands.
The original tiredness was immediately gone.
However, although he was tired today and delayed his studies due to handling the affairs of the house, Yu Wanning was not annoyed.
After all, she didn't study for the sake of learning, she still wanted to rely on her own ability to put herself in an invincible position.
Taking care of the affairs of the palace now should only be practiced, otherwise if you can't even take care of such a small general's mansion, how will you compete with more powerful enemies in the future.
The dinner that Moli brought back was a dish of steamed sea bass, a dish of lychee meat balls, plus a vegetarian dish of spring bamboo shoots and peas, a small bowl of rice, and the soup was West Lake beef soup.
Although it seems that Yu Wanning has been sitting in the house all day today, it is still very exhausting to see people talking about things, and she has to think about the next thing in her mind, and she is really tired after this day.
Therefore, I had a great appetite for dinner and used a lot.
When the chopsticks were put down, there was only half a sea bass and half a bowl of West Lake beef soup left on the table.
Then he took the book and read it himself, so that they did not have to wait in front of them, and went to dinner together.
Xue Jing heard this: "Slave and maid Miss Xie reward, then we will not disturb Miss Study, Fang Cai has sent a little girl to guard outside the middle courtyard, and when she sees the master returning home, she will immediately talk back." ”
