Chapter 093: It's Not Easy to Be in Charge (1)

Mrs. Liu has never read a book, and she doesn't know a few big words, but she thinks that the two sentences that Lord Li once said are the most reasonable, and she has been a tooth wife for more than 20 years, and has been strictly following these two sentences: the first sentence, 'The customer is the Jade Emperor', and the second sentence, 'I don't know which cloud will rain'.

Today, Mrs. Liu once again proved that when she does these two things, she will definitely be surprised.

"I'll keep all the twelve little girls I picked out just now." Wang Qifang pointed to the two rows of little girls picked out by Grandma Sun, and instructed Mrs. Liu, "In addition, I also need twenty coarse mothers-in-law here, and the deed of death and life can be done, but you must be honest and responsible." ”

When Mrs. Liu heard this, she hurriedly walked to the queue of the little girl, her rich round face was full of laugh lines, her originally small eyes smiled into a line, and she flattered her and said, "You just have to rest assured, it's not a day or two for a slave to do this business, can you do anything to smash your own signboard?" I just don't know what you want from this woman? "Hehe, she knows that Lord Li, who single-handedly created the Confucian Chamber of Commerce, will not deceive people.

To be honest, when she heard that Grandma Li only asked her to bring ten people, she was very unhappy. Zhao Da's shopkeeper said it well, this Li Mansion is the new home of Li Meng's husband Fù who has been single after his marriage, and there are almost no people in the house, and people need to enter the inner and outer courtyards, like what maids, mothers-in-law, and small maids...... Forty or fifty to add it up, it's a big deal. In order to get this deal, Mrs. Liu ruthlessly took out a 'referral fee' of twenty taels of silver.

But who would have expected ...... Alas, ten people? Isn't that playing on her? You must know that bringing ten people does not mean that all of them will stay, and it is very likely that none of them will stay. If that were the case, not only would she not earn a penny, but she would have lost twenty taels of silver.

At that time, she really wanted to bring ten little girls over casually, but then she thought of these two sentences of Lord Li, and Mrs. Liu temporarily put aside the resentment in her heart, and carefully selected thirty people in the way of serving the old patrons - first, to try to keep a few more people; The second is to let Grandma Li know that she attaches great importance to her 'Jade Emperor'.

Sure enough, it finally rained on the clouds of Grandma Li.

"Well, there's no requirement, just do the work." Wang Qifang thought for a while, and then said: "By the way, if there are good female workers, it is the best." ”

"The slave understands, the young grandmother can rest assured, the slave has a lot of good female workers and good cooks." Mrs. Liu's narrowed eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance, well, there is not even a needlework lady, and there is really a need for a large number of servants in this house.

Realizing this, Mrs. Liu was even more energetic, and couldn't help but go through the roster in her heart, and began to think about how to do a good job in the business of these twenty people, and strive to win all the orders of the Li Mansion.

sent Mrs. Liu away, Wang Qifang asked Zizhu to lead the twelve selected little girls to the backyard for placement, and she watched Grandma Sun take the school exam on the spot.

"Do you see what's coming?"

Grandma Sun sat on the chair under Wang Qifang and asked with a serious expression.

Xiaoya stood in front of Grandma Sun, her hands naturally folded in front of her, she thought about it a little, with a little uncertainty, and said: "Well, Mama asked who was literate, and then went to look at their hands, and there were calluses in the palms of her hands, which proved that although she was literate, she could also work steadily; The little lady without a callus may be the daughter of a good family who has just sold herself, and then the grandmother asked her to raise her head again, and saw that her eyes were clear, and she asked her to speak with the truth, which shows that she is insightful. ”

Speaking of this, Xiaoya's eyes flashed with suspicion, in her opinion, such a girl should be a well-educated little lady, who understands etiquette and is steady, and can be a big girl, but I don't know why, Mama didn't choose her.

Grandma Sun listened to Xiaoya's words and bowed her head slightly, "Yes, it is not easy for you to see these at your age." ”

Of course, she didn't ignore the puzzlement on the little girl's face, raised her eyebrows, and asked, "Are you wondering, I asked her so much, but I didn't keep her in the end?" ”

"Xiaoya really can't figure it out, and please teach me mama." That sister was much stronger than the big girl in her yard, and as a result, Mama eliminated the family.

"As you mentioned earlier, her palms are very delicate, not only calluses, but not even broken skin, so it is not unreasonable for you to speculate that she is the daughter of a good family. But you ignore one point, she actually has another identity, that is, a first-class or second-class shì girl from a large family. ”

Grandma Sun smiled faintly and slowly explained to Xiaoya: "The reason why I speculate like this is precisely because she behaved too well when she answered. Hehe, the daughter of a good family, was led to a strange place by someone's teeth, and was picked and picked like goods in the East Market, didn't she feel a trace of nervousness or embarrassment? But if it was a shì girl from someone else's family, who could be literate and didn't have to do rough work, but was sent to Renyazi again, she must have done something wrong, even if it wasn't a loss of character, she must be restless, so I didn't choose her. ”

In fact, this kind of girl is not impossible to want, but it is not suitable for the current Li family. There's no way, there aren't many 'old people' in the entire Li family who really understand the rules, are there any clear rules to follow, it's safer to find something stupid, at least it won't mess up the atmosphere at home.

The little girl suddenly said, "Oh, I understand, thank you for your advice." "In the 'dream', although she is married, she has not been a family, and it is impossible to know about this kind of experience.

Wang Qifang listened quietly, and I have to say that Grandma Sun is really experienced, and she can say anything that seems simple.

"In addition, have you noticed that the girl brought by the tooth woman is neatly dressed, clean, and all of them are very honest, even if they are scared and nervous, they don't make any out-of-the-ordinary movements or make any movements."

Mama Sun continued to guide the little girl, and after she finished telling her all the details of how to choose a girl, she turned her head and told her how to choose a girl.

"......" the little girl paused, she really didn't pay attention. But since Mama deliberately pointed it out, there must have been something to say, she recalled it carefully, nodded slowly, nodded a lot, and knew at a glance that she was not sure what she said next, "Mama said very much, those people are of different ages, the youngest I look at is only six or seven years old, it is the age of liveliness...... can stay so quietly, it should have been specially trained by someone. ”

Although it was even méng with a guess, he finally got the point.

The corners of Mama Sun's pursed mouth loosened slightly, and she said, "That's right." When buying a person, one must choose the right servant, and the other is to choose a good tooth woman. Like the mother-in-law who came today, she was able to change the girls into clean clothes and taught the rules in advance, which proves that she is a serious businessman. Unlike some people who can't get on the stage, in order to make money, they can save money, and even take advantage of the kindness of the owner's family to deliberately make the girls pitiful...... If you mistakenly believe in this kind of person, it is still a trivial matter to spend money in vain, and if you buy something inappropriate, it will be a big trouble to bring trouble to the family. ”

Wang Qifang and Xiaoya nodded at the same time and were taught. However, compared to Xiaoya's simple learning experience, Wang Qifang thinks more, only one buyer, there are so many doorways inside, wouldn't it be more cumbersome to manage such a large family in the future?

When she was in the Zhao family before, Wang Qifang also used to be a housekeeper in the name of a housekeeper and was the housewife for a few days. But at that time, she didn't regard the Zhao family as her home at all, and her mind was also on how to punish Diao Nu and how to reconcile with Zhao Tianqing.

Wang Qifang has no experience herself, and there are no suitable people around to help. And those few companions and a few personal maids were originally supposed to be trained as assistants, but unfortunately these people were all from the Zheng family, who were punished and sold by her, and the only amethyst left behind was also entrusted by her with the important task of guarding Peach Blossom Island.

Mama Zhao is a suitable candidate, but she has already been sent home by her to be raised. Besides, after all, Mama is old, and Wang Qifang really can't bear to let an old man who has worked hard for her for most of her life have to suffer for her when she is old.

After counting around, Wang Qifang suddenly found that she had really failed enough, she had been wearing it for four or five years, but she didn't even have a set of her own team. In the past, she didn't care about living alone behind closed doors, but now she can't, she still has to marry her daughter and daughter-in-law, she can't leave such a mess and let the younger generations worry about it, right?!

Alas sighed for an afternoon, Wang Qifang worked hard with the people of the brocade workshop to select materials, set the style, measure the size, and worked for most of the day, and in the evening, she had time to talk to Li Jingtian.

"I made a few fine cotton clothes for Brother Heng before, did you send them?"

Wang Qifang is good at fabric DIY, but not good at embroidery women. The clothes she makes for the children are either made from the old sewing machine in the space, or they are very rough and 'raw'.

"I sent it, and I guess I'll receive it at the end of the month." Although Li Jingtian did not regard Brother Heng as his own son, he was also his nephew, and Qi Niang, as an elder, should also make clothes for the child.

Wang Qifang nodded, "That's good." By the way, have you written to your father and mother in the past two days? The father and mother in her mouth refer to the grandfather and the eldest lady.

"No, the most recent letter was written five days ago," Li Jingtian only then realized that Wang Qifang had stopped talking, looking full of thoughts, "What, you have something on your mind?" Something to do with my father and mother? ”

Wang Qifang was a little embarrassed, she was really embarrassed to say this, and she couldn't tell Li Jingtian directly: I'm sorry, you married a lady who can't take care of the house, please write to ask your mother, and ask her to transcribe a copy of the old practice of the Li family's ancestral house and send it over.

: Hehe, a new book has been uploaded, and it's still under review, and it's estimated that you'll be able to see it tomorrow, dear friends, you must be there for it, thank you, RO@.
