Sister Zhen stood up with a face full of shame: "Mother, you are busy, I will go first." ”

Shi Niang didn't keep her, and sent her out with a smile: "What are you busy with these days?" ”

"The second aunt is taking the homework!"

"Did you tell your second aunt about going to the spring banquet? When the time comes, the homework will have to be stopped. ”

A trace of hesitation flashed in Sister Zhen'er's eyes: "I'll tell the second aunt later!" "There was some fear.

Eleven Niang thought of the second lady's cold appearance and instructed her: "Tell her early." lest you know it from the mouth of others, and your heart will be uncomfortable. ”

Sister Zhen nodded again and again and said goodbye to her.

Eleven Niang and Amber went to the treasury where the dowry was placed.

Zhu Xiang and Yan Rong were cleaning up with a few little maids, and when they saw them coming, they stepped forward to salute.

How many things are in the library, and who is responsible for which ones, are all registered.

Seeing that the arrangement was in order, Eleven Niang nodded slightly. Ask a few aunts.

"Aunt Qin said that she moved in the morning of the sixth day of the new year." Amber said, "Aunt Wen said that she doesn't have anything, and when she is free and when she moves." I also asked if you would like to help. Aunt Qiao didn't ask for anything, only asked when you asked her to move? Say everything is up to you! ”

Eleven Niang was a little surprised.

Qiao Lianfang was too cooperative at this time.

From one extreme to the other. It can't help but feel weird.

I hope it's my own heart!

Eleven Mother and Amber turned around and went back to the house.

On the way, he instructed her: "You go to Aunt Qin's place in person." She was just moving, and it was just dawn at that time. She installed the Bodhisattva at home, and she was exquisite. You take Fangxi over to ask first, so as not to be in a hurry. ”

Amber departed.

Mrs. Du's mother came to invite Eleven Niang over.

Eleven Niang invited Du's mother to sit outside, went in and changed her clothes, and then went to Mrs. Tai with Du's mother. I talked to her about the ups and downs along the way, and I didn't say a word of temptation.

Mother Du couldn't help but smile and said, "Mrs. Tai has something to discuss with Mrs. ”

Eleven Niang didn't know what Mother Du meant when she said this, so she chose a safer answer: "Mother is an elder, what to say if you don't negotiate." Just tell me something. ”

And that's true, too. If you take over the affairs of this big family by yourself, if you have any problems, you naturally have to find yourself to solve them. Being in charge of a home is not an easy task. There are rights and obligations.

Mother Du nodded secretly in her heart, didn't say anything, and accompanied her to Mrs. Tai's place.

The fifth lady was also there, and was talking to Mrs. Tai about something, when she saw Eleven Niang coming in, she stopped the topic and stepped forward to greet Eleven Niang.

Mrs. Tai said to the fifth lady: "You can do this matter yourself!" However, Mrs. Jining and the Yang family are very close. There are some things that should be avoided or avoided! ”

The fifth lady was overjoyed when she heard this, bent her knees to thank Mrs. Tai, greeted Eleven Niang, and got up to say goodbye.

Mrs. Tai pointed to the opposite side of herself and asked Shi Niang to sit down, and said, "Danyang said that Sister Xin doesn't sleep well at night these days. I went to Jining and asked for a sub-watch to burn it, and it would be much better. I want Jining to come into the house to do Dharma for a few days. I agreed. ”

It seems that everyone still hides something from Mrs. Xin'er about Sister Xin'er's fright.

Mrs. Tai came to herself, is it for this matter?

Eleven Niang's thoughts flashed, and she smiled: "I don't know how many days to do the Fa? I see that the spring hall is spacious, close to where the five brothers and sisters live, and there are wings where the masters can be accommodated. You see, when the time comes, it would be good to let Jining Shi Tai rest there? ”

Mrs. Tai nodded again and again: "You are very thoughtful. That's how it will be arranged! ”

While talking, there was a little maid serving tea.

Mrs. Tai let her taste: "The new tea that will be paid tribute this year." ”

Eleven Niang picked it up and took a sip.

The color is emerald green, and the aroma is impressive. It is the best West Lake Longjing in front of the Ming Dynasty.

"Good tea!" She smiled, "The fragrance is strong, fresh and natural. ”

Mrs. Tai smiled when she heard this, and instructed Mother Du: "When the fourth lady goes back, let the little maid bring all this tea back." ”

"How good is this!" Shi Niang listened and said busily, "You can reward me with a taste." ”

"I'm older, no younger than you." Mrs. Tai motioned to Mother Du to get the tea, "I'm still good at Minghou tea!" ”

The tea flavor is strong before the Ming Dynasty, and the tea flavor is clear after the Ming Dynasty. It is true that Ming Qian tea is not suitable for young and older people. Mrs. Tai's words are very reasonable. But Eleven Niang still said: "You still have to leave some guests, right?" And the second sister-in-law and the fifth brother and sister - I'll send you some when the time comes, right? ”

Mrs. Tai heard it and said "yes", and then instructed Du's mother, "Just leave five taels for guests." ”

Du's mother left in response, and Mrs. Tai and Eleven Niang talked about other things.

"I heard that your mother in the house hasn't settled yet?"

The mother who was in charge of the eleventh mother's house had not been decided, but the positions left by Gan Laoquan after he left had been vacant, and the people who had been on an errand with Gan Laoquan had temporarily held it.

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing." She said, "I don't know the people in my family very well, so it's really hard to make a decision for a while. I was trying to ask my mother to help me come up with an idea! ”

Mrs. Tai was not polite when she heard this, and said with a smile: "I came to you just to recommend someone to you?" ”

"Mother, talk about it!" Eleven Niang believed in Mrs. Tai's vision.

"The Song comprador of the outer courtyard."

The Song comprador who helped Yuan Niang go to the Internal Affairs Office to get palace powder?

Eleven Niang was slightly surprised.

Mrs. Tai has said: "There are unfamous rules in our house. The mother-in-law who is in charge of the outer courtyard cannot be the housekeeper mother in the lady's house. But this daughter-in-law of the comprador of Song was the only daughter of your father-in-law's general manager at the time, and she was smart and clever since she was a child, and she once worked as a big maid in my house. Later, Song comprador was recruited at home, and Song comprador worked as an errand in the house. She rested at home. I want to think about it. She's the perfect fit! ”

Since Mrs. Tai recommended people to her, she naturally measured it in her heart. People are certainly capable. It's just the rules of the house......

She said tactfully: "Thank you mother for lifting me." Song comprador is from the outer courtyard. If you delay the Hou Ye's business for my business, it will make me panic. ”

"Rules are dead, people are alive." Mrs. Tai smiled when she heard this, "If you think it's good, it's done." I'll talk to the fourth about this. ”

There is a point in what Mrs. Tai said.

She didn't dwell too much on this, for fear that Mrs. Tai would think that she was not satisfied with Mrs. Tai's recommendation.

Mrs. Tai asked her about moving.

"Amber takes Green Cloud to take care of the things in my house, and Zhu Xiang takes Yanrong to take charge of the things in the storehouse. Aunt Qin and Aunt Wen are in charge of Fangxi and Xiulan, only Aunt Qiao is there, just out of confinement, I asked Hongxiu to help her move. Eleven Niang told Mrs. Tai in detail the order of moving, the time limit for moving each house, and the route to walk.

Seeing that everything was arranged in an orderly manner and couldn't find a single fault, Mrs. Tai was very happy, showing a relieved smile from the boss, and urged her to hurry: "...... Settle in quickly. Please have a few tables of wine. We're hilarious. ”

Eleven Niang smiled and said "yes", chatted with Mrs. Tai for a few words, got up and went back to the house.

When Xu Lingyi came back in the evening, she specially soaked the Longjing given by Mrs. Tai: "Call me over and ask the housekeeper about the mother, and reward me with this tea." How about Hou Ye taste it? ”

Xu Lingyi took a sip: "Not bad." The best West Lake Longjing. The taste is mellow and the smell is fragrant. Then he naturally told her about it: "My mother called me in the afternoon. I think it's good too. Let's settle it! ”

Eleven Niang nodded and said with a smile: "My mother recommended it, and Hou Ye also thinks it is good, so naturally there will be no mistake." It's just that I'm afraid of breaking the rules of the house......"

If it were someone else who encountered this kind of exceptional situation, I don't know how happy they were. Xu Lingyi saw Eleven Niang's willow eyebrows frowning lightly, her eyes were sad, and she looked worried...... The ghost envoy pinched her nose and teased: "My mother and I have made an exception for you, and you are still not happy!" ”

As soon as the words fell, both of them were startled.

One felt that he was talking frivolously, and the other felt that the consequences were serious.

The former was a little embarrassed, and the latter hurriedly said: "There are no rules, you can't make a circle." If it was for my sake to make an exception. It was a piece of the heart of the mother and the Hou Ye. But if I, as the head of the board of directors, accept it like this, everyone will inevitably follow the same example in the future, and they can find reasons to make exceptions. The tone was soft and firm, "Master Hou, Mother Song is the person you and your mother fancy both in, and I really want her to come to my house." Look, can you think of any other way? ”

"Speaking of which, comprador Song has also been in the treasury for ten years." Xu Lingyi said with a straight face, "I think he is acting properly." It just so happens that the shop in Nanjing lacks a second shopkeeper. I think it's better to let him hone and hone it. In this way, it is only right that his daughter-in-law will be on an errand in your house. Besides, being able to be released as a shopkeeper is also a dignity for him and for his deceased father-in-law. ”

"Master Hou, this is a good idea!" Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief. Speaking of the candidate to replace the comprador Song: "...... Originally, the eldest sister left a person named Yang Huizu, and I asked him to help buy things, and I saw that the work was good. If Hou Ye hasn't settled down yet, it's better to think about it! ”

Xu Lingyi was slightly surprised.

Eleven Niang never took the initiative to ask about the affairs of the outer courtyard, let alone recommend people to him like this.

"I can't help it!" He saw his wife sigh, "That evening fragrance, a group of gangsters, against the ripe and stealing students, I think it's a little unreasonable." Then after Eleven Niang left Gan Laoquan, she asked the person who had helped Gan Laoquan to temporarily take charge of Gan Laoquan, and Wanxiang not only shook her face to show people, but also embarrassed people in the kitchen, "...... She was also in charge of the kitchen. After Gan Laoquan left, I also had this intention. It was only because he had just taken over that the situation was unclear and it was inconvenient to change it immediately, so he temporarily appointed that person. Even though she was dissatisfied, I meant it after all. In this way, it is not good to keep her. I'm afraid I'm going to kill the chicken and show it to the monkey. I was worried about chilling the hearts of those who followed the eldest sister. If I can change my hands and tickle, I will be more confident. ”

"Okay!" Xu Lingyi nodded, "Then let that Yang Huizu's go to see Manager Bai the day after tomorrow!" But he didn't mention whether there was a post-election for the vacancy of the Song comprador in advance.
