Chapter 239, Accounts
The affairs of Kangzhuang have settled down, Lin An has become the manager of Kangzhuang, and he always has to go several times a day for big and small affairs, but Lin An's heart is still stinky, and he became a manager at the age of seventeen, and his motivation is not ordinary [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 239].
At the end of the year, Lin An came to report every day, the newly added farm tools, cattle, baskets, etc., personal new clothes, monthly money, daily food expenses, etc., things were too trivial.
Ziqing and Lin Kangping discussed this matter, Lin Kangping looked at Ziqing's wrinkled brows, thought about it, and said: "It's better for us to set up an account room for Kangzhuang and calculate it separately, in the past, the Wen family had a general account room, and there were more than a dozen account gentlemen in charge, and our family didn't have that big property, but it is still possible to consider setting up an account room in Kangzhuang, there will be many people coming in the future, and there will be many places to spend money, so you can't come to us for everything." You tell me? ”
When Ziqing heard this, she immediately smiled and said: "But I'm confused, if you grow wheat, sweet potatoes, and potatoes in the future, maybe our family will open a workshop to do something, but don't set up a separate account room, use the production of Kangzhuang to raise Kangzhuang, and it will be calculated at the end of the year." ”
After planting hundreds of acres of wheat, Ziqing can open a noodle processing factory, and when he has planted hundreds of acres of sweet potatoes and potatoes, Ziqing can open a vermicelli processing factory.
Lin Kangping was also worried about the candidate, and said: "I think Sister-in-law Li's son Wang Xide knows a little arithmetic. I've seen the accounts of the orange orchard he made, but I'm a little younger, and I can't bring up big things. ”
Ziqing thought about it, don't want two people, modern accounting is not one in charge of accounts and one in charge of cash, and the two of them can also contain and supervise each other, think so. Ziqing thought of a candidate and said, "My second uncle's cousin Xinfu seems to be doing a tent somewhere. If you go to him and ask him to quit his job over there, our family's salary will definitely be one percent higher than that over there. It seems that I have to quit my job in advance, and tell him, by the way, Kangzhuang will build two more houses, and let him bring my cousin-in-law and children over together, with food and accommodation, and the conditions are generous enough. ”
"It's not that I forgot him, your uncle's family is still more reliable, it's not too late for me to inquire about him from the side first, this account man's character is the most important." Lin Kangping said.
Not to mention that the husband and wife are here to discuss the matter of the account. Qiuyu's family has been moving into a new home for a few days, and Lin Kangping has not been seen for a long time to come to Zhou Yunjiang to do things, and Zhou Yunjiang inquired about Kangzhuang's newly hired more than ten people, both cooking mother-in-law and needlework room, Zhou Yunjiang said that Kangzhuang newly set up Lin An to be in charge. I'm afraid that I need an accountkeeper more.
When Qiu Yu heard this, where could she still sit at home, she hurriedly took Wanqing into the Qing Garden.
Ziqing happened to bring someone from Qingyuan to dry the quilt, and it was easy for the weather to be clear, and everything had to be taken out to dry, especially the padded jacket and cloak. Carpets, etc., a large yard was made with flowers, and Shu Rui kept clapping his hands when he saw Xi, reaching out to touch it, which made Xiaoqing Xiaolan laugh non-stop.
At this time, Ah Tu came in and said that Qiu Yu entered the door, Ziqing hurriedly took Shu Rui to the outer courtyard, directly welcomed Qiu Yu into the West House, and put Shu Rui on the Luohan bed to play, Wan Qing is three or four months older than Shu Rui, and has learned to walk, and the two children are playing on the side, Ziqing has to admit that Qiu Yu still teaches her children better, such a young child does not make trouble, nor does she beat anyone, and she also knows to give Shu Rui what she has in her hand [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 239].
Qiu Yu said with a smile: "Ziqing, I haven't been to your house for a few months, when did you change the porter, it's hard to speak, where is the accent?" Didn't Lin An Linfu do a good job before? ”
Ziqing guessed Qiuyu's intention, and replied with a smile: "It's not bought, it's Kangping picked it up from Yuecheng, it just so happens that Lin An and Lin Fu are also older, my Kangping said to let them do something else, and mentioned Lin An to be the steward of Kangzhuang, which saves us a lot of things, and also saves my aunt and dad to run again every day, Ansheng farms and works at home, sister-in-law, didn't you say that you have long wanted to buy a few acres of wasteland and open up all kinds of land, this time it's just right, the province delays my aunt's business, and there are not a few taels of silver a year." ”
Qiu Yu listened to the mouth that had just opened her mouth, closed it again, thought about it and said: "Kangzhuang is such a big piece of land, you bought these people again, and there are a lot of trivial things every day, if you want me to say, you might as well hire your aunt to do the accounts, you are both worry-free and rest assured, why bother to worry about everything yourself, Qingyuan is still such a big stall?" Kangping has to run out for a year, and he doesn't know that he feels sorry for you at all. ”
Ziqing smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, this is wrong, Kang Ping said, he has invited Wang Tieshan's son to do the accounting, he has also studied for a few years, it is time to come out to experience the experience, I don't worry about it, he said that he won't let me take care of the affairs of Kangzhuang, the account and the steward have been arranged, I, Qingyuan's affairs are enough for me to be busy, such a big family, I can't take care of anything else." After Ziqing finished speaking, she deliberately stretched.
Qiu Yu didn't know what to say when she heard it, at this time, Xiaoqing came up with tea and refreshments, served tea, and didn't leave, just teasing the children on the side, making the two children giggle, Wanqing and Shurui even grabbed Xiaoqing with their hands.
Xiaoqing accidentally wet the sleeves of Shurui and Wanqing, and hurriedly shouted in a fuss: "Grandma, the slave maid should be damned, she actually wet the clothes of the little master and the cousin, how is this good, it is a cold day, if you catch a cold, it will not be good, it is better for the slave to go and change the little master's clothes first." ”
Ziqing couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister-in-law might as well take Wanqing home to change her clothes first, such a young child, it is indeed troublesome to catch a cold." ”
Qiu Yu had to say goodbye when she saw it, and wanted to say something, opened her mouth, but left. As soon as Qiu Yu left, Xiaoqing hurriedly hugged Shurui to change clothes, Ziqing followed and said with a smile: "You pretend to be a ghost, I guessed it, do you think my sister-in-law doesn't know?" Beware of the day when she finds an excuse to make a noise for you, you will be honest. ”
"How can it? I'm not her person, I'm my grandmother's person, my grandfather has said it a long time ago, no matter who dares to give grandma anger, any of us can think of it, what is there to do with grandma. Xiaoqing shook her head and smiled.
Ziqing burst out laughing and said, "Did your lord tell you to kill people?" ”
"Ye Cai won't, you see, Ah Tu Ah Shui is also clever this time, knowing that you can't just put people in, if it is the master who has explained and is not allowed to enter, just answer directly in Cantonese dialect, that is, I don't know if I ask three questions, I don't know what I don't know clearly, I also know that I will go back and forth, give us some time, otherwise, Mrs. Gu entered the second gate, looking at the good clothes in the yard, maybe I have to say something?" Xiaoqing said with a smile.
Xiaolan happened to walk in and said, "Let you do such a little thing, you have broken up this lot, carefully know that you will clean up and grind your teeth, why don't you hurry up and help me, the warehouse has not been sorted out yet." ”
Ziqing heard that this was wrong, and said, "How can you say it, what is what your master said?" It's not easy to work with me at all? Am I just an ornament? ”
"Grandma, how can you be an ornament, you are our god, you want to lose a hair, you have to feel distressed for a long time, you have to have a mistake, you still don't tear us down?" Xiaoqing and Xiaolan laughed at the same time.
"Okay, don't dare to make fun of me, if you don't clean up your two little hooves today, I'll be your master for nothing." As soon as Ziqing finished speaking, Lin Kangping entered the door.
"Who are you going to clean up? Whoever dares not to listen, tell me directly, send someone to sell. Lin Kangping asked.
Ziqing was amused when she heard it, clapped her hands and smiled: "Who else can there be, isn't it just the two spies you arranged by my side, see if you are willing to sell?" ”
When Xiaoqing Xiaolan heard this, she hurriedly made a bitter look, Xiaoqing said: "Master, grandma is talking and playing, how dare we not listen to grandma?" Uh, the little master is hungry, let's take the little master out for a bite to eat. After saying that, the two hugged the child and ran away.
Here, Lin Kangping hugged Ziqing and joked: "I really sold them, don't cry when the time comes, say that you are reluctant, I can't find the same." ”
Ziqing listened and pinched Lin Kangping's waist and said, "Who said that I would cry my nose, and then I will sell you a piece, but I don't know how much silver I can sell?" ”
"Daughter-in-law, you are really ruthless, your hands hurt carefully, I still don't sell it, it's a little useful to keep it, you see, you can make money, you can manage the house, you can make you happy, and you can wait for you."
Ziqing's face turned red when she heard this, Lin Kangping couldn't help laughing when he saw it, seeing Ziqing Bo angry and slightly blind, her face was like a peach blossom, she really had a little thought, and hugged Ziqing on the kang. It took a long time to coax to get it.
After the two of them packed up and went out, Ziqing talked about Qiu Yu's coming, "My sister-in-law didn't know where I knew that there were many people coming to our Kangzhuang, and he said that he definitely needed an account room, but I didn't agree." ”
Lin Kangping patted his head suddenly, and said: "I was teased by the three of your masters and servants for a long time, and I actually forgot to get down to business, I have decided to give you a new cousin in the account, I have inquired clearly, he has been doing it all these years, and his reputation has been good, I brought him to meet you, Lin An took him to Kangzhuang to see it first, don't forget it?" ”
Ziqing really felt embarrassed now, screwed Lin Kangping several times, and hurriedly walked to the outer courtyard, Shen Xinfu was admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall in the study, Ziqing saw it and said busily: "Cousin, I'm really sorry, I was delayed just now, and they didn't tell me that you came over, I'm really embarrassed." ”
"It's okay, I've just arrived, and I've been to your Zhuangzi to see it, but, sister, do you think it's really necessary for this Zhuangzi to set up a separate account at present? Does this cost you a lot? Shen Xinfu asked.
Ziqing looked at Lin Kangping. (To be continued)
