Now seeing Jingwen's humble appearance, Mama Wu also breathed a sigh of relief, presumably it was not she who took the initiative to ask for someone, it was really the prince who found that there were no servants when he summoned people, so he asked Qianran to let her add all the people in this courtyard.

Mama Wu smiled on her face, and her three-legged eyes narrowed, and she couldn't see the look in her eyes clearly.

"Mrs. Jing, these dozen or so maids are carefully selected by the old slaves, you can see if there are any pleasing to the eye."

The corners of Jing Wen's mouth were hooked, her voice was soft, and she looked like she was indisputable.

"Mama Wu laughed, since Mama Wu personally picked it, naturally everyone is ingenious."

After speaking, he looked around at the maids and said, "Then the concubine is not welcome." ”

As she spoke, she pointed to a few of them that looked honest, and picked two girls who looked clever.

In fact, there is nothing to pick, as for the background of these people, since someone has checked it, all she wants is the people in her yard, the real people in her yard.

After picking a good person, Mama Wu said with a smile: "Since Mrs. Jing has picked it well, the old slave will retire, if any of these girls don't know the rules, Mrs. Jing can teach her well." ”

Jing Wen didn't speak, and gave her a gift with a smile on her face.

It seems that she is getting more and more accustomed to this identity, if before, except for her father and mother and the current Shang family, she has not saluted the servants in the courtyard.

After Mama Wu left with the maids who were not selected, Jing Wen looked at the little maids in front of her again.

He asked, "Can your deed of sale be on yourselves?" ”

Since she is a person in her yard, this deed of sale is naturally to be handed over to her.

Their deed of sale is generally collected by the old woman, and after she picks out someone, she also picks out the deed of sale and gives it to her for safekeeping, or she holds the deed of sale by herself, and after being picked up by the master's family, she hands it over together.

Mama Wu didn't even mention it just now, and Jing Wen thought that the deed of sale was held by them.

But those girls looked at each other timidly, and then shook their heads.

Jing Wen couldn't help frowning.

Mama Wu, what does this mean?

Is this hand stretched too long, and even the people in her yard have to take care of it, is it bullying her for being too soft?

She called: "Qingzhu, you catch up and ask Mama Wu if these maids will return to my courtyard in the future." ”

Qingzhu listened, nodded yes, and ran out of the yard quickly.

Jingwen stood in the courtyard and didn't move, and those maids didn't dare to move, they all cowered and lowered their heads.

She didn't believe that someone as shrewd as Mama Wu would not be able to hear the meaning of her words.

Presumably, those people hadn't gone far yet, and Qingzhu came back after a while.

With a few pieces of rice paper in his hand, he trotted to Jing Wen and handed her the deed of sale in his hand.

He whispered in her ear again: "That Mama Wu's face is not very good." ”

Jing Wen hummed quietly.

This is what she can think of, but Mama Wu is too much, not any persimmon can be pinched, not to mention that she is not a persimmon.

She lit up the deed of sale in her hand and asked, "Do you know who your master is?" ”

The men hurriedly replied, "The slave and maid know." ”

Jing Wen nodded, although she has a soft personality, but not everyone can bully, if she doesn't set rules for these slaves, she will be bought by outsiders if she can't be guaranteed in the future, and it can't be easier to put on a small shoe or something for her.

She called out the two clever girls, asked them to stand aside, and picked two steady-looking girls from among them as second-class maids, and assigned everyone else to be rough girls.

After taking Jingwen to explain them and re-naming them, Qingzhu took the others down.

Jing Wen let the two maids follow into the house.

She sat down on the main seat, looked at the two of them, and asked, "Do you know why you two stayed?" ”

The two maids looked at each other and shook their heads.

"I think you have also seen it, now there is only a first-class maid and a second-class maid left on this errand, I saw that you two are clever when I just selected people, so I left it for you, and now it depends on your ability to eat."

The joy on the faces of the two maids is hard to hide, as soon as they enter the hospital, they can sit on the first-class maids, which is a great thing, with great power and a lot of money, naturally many people want it.

"Please ask Mrs. Jing to command." The two said in unison.

Jing Wen looked at the two of them again, and hesitated whether to explain this to them.

If these two people do a good job, it will naturally be good, if they don't do a good job, if the prince knows about it......

She bit her lip, thought for a moment, and asked, "Do you know that Prime Minister Qi's mansion was buried today?" ”

The two looked at each other, nodded and said, "The slave knows." ”

"What opportunity do you take to send the letter out and see if Qi Yixin, the eldest lady of the Qi family, is back, if she is back, you just say that she will come to sit in the prince's mansion, I have something to tell her, it is about Qi Yitong, if she doesn't come back, ......"

Speaking of the eldest sister not coming back, Jing Wen's mood was a little low: "If you don't come back, then forget it." ”

The two of them were a little hesitant, the two of them had just arrived, and they wanted to spread the news from this palace, not to mention that those little guys didn't know them, even if they did, with their faces, those people wouldn't help.

Jing Wen sat on the upper seat, took all their expressions into her eyes, and smiled lightly: "Don't worry, I won't make you particularly embarrassed, I have six taels of silver here, and you have three taels each, no matter whether you spend money to do it or not, the last silver taels are yours." ”

As soon as Jing Wen said this, the eyes of the two flashed.

Jing Wen chuckled, sure enough, money can make ghosts grind.

She gave the two men two cents of the silver in her hand, and waved them out, saying only that it would be best to give her news in the afternoon.

If it's too late, it is estimated that her body will sink into the ground.

After sending people over, the originally deserted courtyard became lively, and Jingwen sat in the courtyard, looking at the mountains of ledgers piled up in front of her.

The maid who delivered the account books said that she had read the account books recently, and in a few days she would go to the front yard to tell Mama Wu what she had learned.

This should be regarded as Mama Wu's warning to her.

What a paranoid woman.

Just as she was looking seriously, Qingzhu leaned closer and whispered, "Mrs. Jing, the prince has sent someone to invite you to dinner." ”

Jing Wen nodded, and called Lian Yu to take all these books back into the house, where to put their eyes.

Lianyu listened and did so.

Jing Wen tidied up her outfit and took Qingzhu to the side hall.

I didn't expect Mama Wu to be here today.

Standing behind Yin Mingchen, he said something to Yin Mingchen with a courteous face.

It wasn't until she got closer that I heard her words.

"A total of five thousand silver taels were spent on this month's account, of which two thousand silver taels are the medicines of you and Mrs. Jing, because the prince's medicines are all of the highest quality, and the price is naturally more expensive, and the other thousand five hundred taels are the food and clothing in the house, and now it is the hot summer time, and the ice in the house accounts for the majority, and the other five hundred taels are the monthly salaries of the servants in the house, and the other five hundred taels are the gift box money that the prince brought out of the house this month, and there are five hundred taels ......"

Speaking of this, Mama Wu looked up at Jing Wen who walked in front of her, and said, "There are two hundred taels for Mrs. Jing to buy maids and servants, and three hundred taels for Mrs. Jing to add two sets of jewelry." ”

When Jing Wen heard the meaning of the latter words, there was still no wave on her face, and when she finished speaking, she was free before she opened her mouth to say goodbye to the prince.

Yin Mingchen didn't say anything, and waved her hand to sit down.

The slender fingers picked up the tea bowl and took a few sips.

After Mama Wu explained these generally, she nodded: "Since there is a reason for going out, there is nothing to see, Mama Wu can rest assured that the king of the account book is in charge." ”

After speaking, he looked at Jing Wen and motioned for her to bring the handkerchief for cleaning her hands.

Rubbing his hands, Yin Mingchen said again: "You haven't learned to manage accounts recently, but you have also learned some, so you can read this month's account book." ”

Although this sentence was not nominated and the surname was mentioned, everyone understood.

Jing Wen was a little surprised.

What does he mean by that?

"Mama Wu, take her with you when you're fine, she is not a stupid person, she will do it a little."

After Yin Mingchen finished speaking, he glanced at her again, and found that she seemed to be a little speechless and stopped.

In the end, she didn't say, and he didn't ask.

Mama Wu was surprised by Yin Mingchen's decision, let her look at the account book, can she see that there is something wrong?

Originally, it was the duty of the hostess in the house to check the account book at the end of the month, which means......

Thinking of this, Mama Wu interrupted herself again, she was a concubine or a concubine sent by the Nine Emperor Princes, how could the prince let her rest assured of her, she must be at ease with herself, she felt that she didn't need to check the accounts anymore, and letting Mrs. Jing see it was just a formality.

Thinking of this, her scheming was much more relaxed, and even looking at Jingwen was a lot smoother.

Jing Wen at the dinner table didn't think about it so much, she only sighed in her heart and added a few more copies.

Originally, Mama Wu said that she should look at the copied account books more and learn how to manage the accounts.

She just looked at it.

But now she found that there were many things in the ledger that were not right.

Some of them are even very old, and they are even more unlicensed to check.

What's the point of this Mama Wu letting her look at these fake accounts all day long.

Is it to test her carefulness, to see if she can see what is wrong?

Thinking about things in my heart, I couldn't help but slow down a little bit.

Yin Mingchen glanced at her absent-minded appearance and frowned: "But the food is not to your liking?" ”

Jing Wen came back to her senses all of a sudden, and shook her head hurriedly: "No." ”

After lunch, Jing Wen wanted to continue to go back to Zhaoyu Courtyard to read the account book, and by the way, she waited for the news of Jiayu and Jiaxue.

I don't want to be intercepted.

Not far away, a man dressed as a young man who was running from the front yard shouted, "Stop him for me, stop him." ”

As he spoke, he kept looking back, as if there was some man-eating monster behind him.

Jing Wen watched her run towards her, hurriedly hid to the side of the road, and went directly down the gravel road and into the grass, but the little boy was obviously frightened by the people behind him.

Not looking at the road ahead at all, Jing Wen watched the man crash into her arms, but there was no way to dodge.

knocked her directly into the grass, and stars appeared above her head in pain.

"You don't have long eyes, I didn't see this princess running this way, I don't know how to hide, hum, I'll settle accounts with you later."

Before Jing Wen could react, the seven or eight-year-old man had already stood up and patted his ass and ran inside again.

Jing Wen was speechless, this princess is really rude.

I think it's the emperor's twelfth daughter, Princess Xuanyu.
