Seeing that the New Year is approaching these days, the official road outside the city gate is not as deserted as before.

Although it is not endless, there are always carriages and convoys going back and forth on this icy and snowy road.

One of them, a group of horses, four black-painted flat-topped carriages, and eight horseback retinues followed, were particularly eye-catching.

The uniform and neat entourage dress and the one-color Jiangnan brocade curtain show that this is not an ordinary family, and the carriage of the carriage is uniformly printed with the word "Zhao".

No matter which carriage of the Zhao Mansion it was, this posture was something that ordinary people could not afford to provoke, so when the carriage drove into the city, passers-by avoided it one after another.

When the convoy turned into Taiping Lane, the male and female hosts sitting in the two carriages had a happy face and a sad face, showing a completely distinct expression.

…………

At this time, in the flower hall of Hongxun Courtyard, all the family members looked at the five girls who were less than twelve years old sitting in the center.

She was reading a booklet in her hand, and her voice was not slow, but like the sound of a babbling stream.

It's just that every time she pronounces a word, the faces of those subordinates are more surprised.

Until the end, when their expressions were almost dumbfounded, Hua Jin had finished reading the booklet and looked around at everyone again, "Now, do you still have any questions?" If you don't have one, go to the wooden box in front of you and take out your name tag. ”

The people looked at each other again...... From now on, the first thing they do on duty every day is to come to this flower hall and hang up their name tags, and they can't take them off until the end of their duty?

How do you count when you're lazy?

Some mothers-in-law said unhappily: "Fifth girl, the old slave is that vulgar person, he doesn't know a single big character, how can he find his name?" ”

The corners of Hua Jin's lips hooked up a light smile, "I also made a simple symbol mark on the name plate, if you really don't know your name, you can come to me to check the corresponding symbol." After a pause, his tone remained firm, "The symbols are already very easy to remember, and if someone says they don't know each other, then we will stay in this flower hall today and learn to recognize our own names." ”

Some people don't care about stepping forward to take their own brand, and some people are thinking about the policy and the countermeasures, but when they are thinking about how to be opportunistic, they hear the crisp voice of the five girls: "This brand can't fake others, you will hang it up when you are on duty, and you will take it down when it is your turn to rest." If you want to find someone else to replace you, you should say hello in advance. If you find that you do not follow this method, you will deduct one day of silver. ”

The last thing the servants wanted to hear was probably the deduction of silver, but a few people were still thinking in addition to frowning: If you let those little maids hang this sign for them, and let those little maids do the work for them, how can the five girls know?

Hua Jin knows the atmosphere of this yard best, and when Du's mother was there, she took the lead in bullying the little maids who had just bought them, not only letting them work more, but also beating and scolding.

At this time, he looked up at a few "respectable" servants in the courtyard, and said: "In the future, there will be maids on duty every day in this flower hall." ”

Some people were puzzled, what was the duty in the flower hall? Whose master is served?

"I will arrange a little maid to be on duty in this flower hall every day, and watch everyone hang the signs."

Every day, a little maid is on duty in the flower hall, not serving the master but the wooden board in front of her?

"A few maids will be arranged every day, and they will be responsible for walking around the yard without being on duty."

Don't be on duty?

Just going around?

Do you still need to arrange?

The eyes of a few servants, who were often lazy in the back, lit up.

"These maids are responsible for looking around in the yard, in the kitchen, and in the pantry, and if they find that there are those who are not on duty, they will write them down, and they will deduct one day's monthly silver."

And the silver is deducted?

So don't these maids who are responsible for going around have power in their hands, who are they?

These five girls are really young and simple, don't you just give them some benefits or threats, and who can really deduct their monthly silver?

Don't be afraid.

"These maids or servants are not fixed, I will send someone to give a temporary notice every day?"

Short notice?

So how do you give benefits?

To whom is it good?

And who are you threatening?

"Of course, where there is a penalty, there is a reward. Maids and servants who can't find fault will be fined silver, and they will also get an additional opportunity to rest without deducting the monthly silver. ”

Many people were stunned......

"Everyone, get your name tag back."

In a daze, while thinking, I unconsciously stepped forward to get my name tag.

"All the rules I read today, start to enforce them immediately!"

Hearing the words with a bit of sternness, the people couldn't help but look over, the lake green makeup flower plain jacket, the moon white embroidered peach blossom long skirt, the small face is not as big as a palm, it looks like a petite doll!

Why can't they figure out why this petite doll-like five girls have such an idea?

Everyone looked down at the wooden name tag in their hands, and looked at their names in a daze, this is their name?

"I have one last thing to announce." Hua Jin stood up from the chair, although he was not tall, he had a kind of bearing in his gestures.

She slowly walked into the crowd and stood beside a person, "In the future, Mother Chen will be the housekeeper mother in our Honghun Courtyard, and each of you must listen to her." ”

Chen's mother?

Which Chan mom?

The mother Chen who was picked up by the five girls herself?

The mother Chen who was once thrown to Zhuangzi many years ago?

Mother Chen only felt that everyone's eyes fell on her, envy, speculation, suspicion, jealousy, strangeness, and joy......

But she had already experienced too much.

She took a step and met everyone's eyes without any scruples, "That's all the five girls want to order today, everyone disperses and goes back to do things well." ”

Although the situation has not yet been fully understood, there are also many maids who are worried about the owner of the house, so they nodded in response, but just wanted to step out, but heard Chen's mother remind, "Don't forget to hang up your name tag on duty." ”

They were a little unaccustomed to hanging up the name tags that had just been taken out of the wooden box, and they retired and left the flower hall one after another.

"Fifth girl, that old slave will take the peach everywhere to inspect and inspect today."

Hua Jin showed a bright smile, "Then it's hard for Mother Chen." ”

Mother Chen looked at this smile, and there was a moment of dapplication, and when she saw that there were no outsiders in the house, she said, "Our five girls actually look more and more like the previous lady." ”

Hua Jin's brows jumped slightly, "My own grandmother I have never met?" ”
