Eleven Niang greeted Mrs. Tai and said that she wanted to pick a few people from Yuan Niang to work in her house: "...... If my mother agrees, I will temporarily set a few people in the next few days. Then you can help me get an idea. ”

Mrs. Tai's gaze on her was very soft, and she said with a smile: "It was left to you to dispose of." It's up to you. ”

As she was talking, Sister Zhen and Brother Zhen got up.

The two children saluted their elders.

Brother Zhen asked Mrs. Tai: "Are we going to the second aunt today?" ”

Eleven Niang was a little surprised, I don't know how Brother Chen could say such a thing.

Mrs. Tai smiled and asked him, "Do you like to go?" ”

Brother Zhen smiled and squinted his eyes and nodded: "Second aunt has sugar buns to eat." ”

Mrs. Tai laughed: "You just think about eating." ”

Brother Zhen stood there laughing.

Mrs. Tai said to Eleven Niang: "...... Yi Zhen is very knowledgeable. Before Brother Qin, Brother Yu, and Brother Jian were enlightened, they all learned a few words with her. The weather was too hot before, and then I was busy with your marriage, so I left my brother in the house. Yesterday, Yizhen attends his brother's knowledge, this kid listens, and he is also worried about going to school! The tone revealed the satisfaction of Brother Chen's sensibility.

No wonder the three children had such respect for the second lady yesterday.

Eleven Niang was secretly surprised, and her face showed a little surprise: "I heard that the second sister-in-law is good at learning, but I didn't expect to be able to guide the children to enlightenment." He glanced at Sister Zhen with a smile again, "Sister Zhen'er's knowledge was also learned from the second lady!" ”

Mrs. Tai smiled and nodded: "Yi Zhen can do anything." said that Sister Zhen had long fingers, so she specially taught her the rhythm. Now I can play a few tunes. ”

Eleven Niang's eyes couldn't help but fall on Sister Zhen'er's hand.

Sure enough, the ten fingers are slender and the bones are distinct, unlike the ordinary young lady who is raised in the deep pavilion as soft as bones, but faintly reveals a few strengths.

Sister Zhen saw that Eleven Niang was looking at her, and she was a little embarrassed to shake her hands: "My hands are not good-looking......"

Shi Niang smiled: "Serious hands are the most beautiful." ”

Sister Zhen was stunned.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: "If you don't practice often, how can your fingers be strong, if you don't have energy, how can you play a good tune." ”

Sister Zhen smiled slightly, her cheeks were faintly pink, very beautiful.

The corners of Eleven Niang's mouth are slightly upturned.

Sister Zhen is not the kind of beauty with a posture like a willow and eyebrows like the moon in the traditional sense, but her eyes are clear, indifferent and quiet, and she has the grace of everyone's daughter. Speaking of which, it's a bit like the second lady...... It's too far away from Aunt Wen!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but rejoice.

Fortunately, Mrs. Tai raised Sister Zhen by her side, if she followed Aunt Wen, I am afraid she would become the second talking basket......

Mrs. Tai called Wei Zi to prepare some food and bring it over, and then smiled at Eleven Niang: "We will also go there to quarrel with her." ”

Accompanying Mrs. Tai, Eleven Niang is naturally duty-bound. As soon as I answered with a smile, the third lady came. Pulling Eleven Niang: "I went to your house to look for you, saying that you came to Mrs. Tai's place." I'm about to talk to you about the kitchen. ”

Eleven Niang pretended not to know: "The matter of the kitchen? I don't understand. I don't know what the third sister-in-law wants me to do? "A look of full cooperation.

The third lady babbled on and on about how difficult it was to be a housekeeper and how much the family had to spend.

Mrs. Tai looked at them and couldn't finish talking for a while, smiled and took Brother Chen's hand, and said to the third lady and Eleven Niang, "I'll send them to Yizhen." You speak slowly. ”

Eleven Niang was worried about the news from the Luo family, responded with a smile, sent Mrs. Tai and the children out, and then went to her house: "...... The third sister-in-law came to sit with me, and we had a good talk. ”

The third lady was in a hurry to get this done, and went to her with Eleven Niang with a smile.

“…… You come up with a menu of your favorite food, and let the kitchen help you come up with the recipe...... I didn't find the fourth brother and sister, I went to the fifth brother and sister first, and told her about it, she praised it again and again, let me ask the fourth brother and sister, only to say that you agreed, and you can start to change the old rules tomorrow. ”

Eleven Niang smiled and said: "Now the third sister-in-law is in charge." What is the situation at home, no one knows better than the third sister-in-law. Since the third sister-in-law thinks that this is better, it naturally has its benefits. I don't have much of an opinion. When the time comes, you can directly instruct Mother Wu, who is in charge of the kitchen in my yard. ”

The process was unexpectedly smooth for the third lady, and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

A little maid came in and said, "Fourth lady, Mother Tao is here." ”

Eleven Niang said a few polite words to the third lady and sent the third lady out.

Back in the house, Tao's mother took a list to Eleven Niang, and then introduced her to the people on the list: "...... You see whether you are satisfied or not. ”

The people that Tao's mother picked for her were all people who had no background and used to be little maids in Yuan Niang's house.

Shi Niang nodded with satisfaction: "That's exactly what I want." ”

Although the older ones have experience, they also like to work with experience. The clever ones have been big girls early, and the unclever ones have been eliminated early. And these little maids are young, and after a certain amount of training, their grade is low, and they will be second- and third-class maids when they come to their own house, and they should cherish such an opportunity!

Mother Tao saw that Eleven Niang was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Then I'll bring someone here!" ”

Seeing that the big * milk hadn't come yet, Eleven Niang responded with a smile.

After a while, Tao's mother took six maids, and four mothers-in-law came.

The maids were between twelve or thirteen years old, and they all had plain faces, looked clean and tidy, and looked smart. The mother-in-law is in her forties, with an honest face and a very capable dress.

A few saluted Eleven Niang, and they all stood aside with their hands respectfully.

Tao's mother introduced them to Eleven Niang one by one.

Some of the husbands of the four mothers-in-law help in Yuanniang's grange, and some do chores in Xufu, one of the eight little maids is called Luyun, one is called Hongxiu, one is called Shuangyu, one is called Fangxi, one is called Qiuyu, one is called Yanrong, one is called Xiulan, and one is called Lanxuan. Among them, Green Cloud and Red Embroidery are ready to be second-class maids, and the others are third-class maids.

Eleven Niang thought of the two big mustaches beside Yuan Niang, one was called Green Calyx and the other was Yan Hong, so she carefully looked at the two maids.

The appearance is very ordinary, but the temperament is very calm.

She quietly matched the name of the person, and then said a few words like "I will listen to my sisters in the future and live in harmony", and let Amber lead the person down.

Then let Holly grind the ink and transcribe the names of several again.

Mother Tao looked at her handwriting on the side, but with a little carefree, a little bit of a woman's grace, and a few men's flying, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.

The eldest lady said that she was a good girl and didn't like to read......

She couldn't help but feel a little resentful in her heart.

Does the eldest lady know the details of this eleventh lady?

I had the idea of taking the time to go to Luofu to ask.

Eleven Niang was quite moved when she saw Tao's handwriting when she saw her handwriting, and smiled slightly in her heart.

In her previous life, she began to learn calligraphy at the age of five, except for three years in Luofu, no matter what the circumstances. Otherwise, knowing that the ancient times paid attention to "words are like people", how could they focus all their energy on female celebrities. I have to write a handful of words correctly!

After writing the list, Eleven Niang handed it to Tao's mother: "See if there are any mistakes." ”

Mother Tao read it once, and the word is good.

Knowing that Shi Niang had all this in mind, she was slightly surprised, but she no longer had that kind of stunned - from Shi Niang's attitude towards the head of the third room to now only listening to it twice and remembering all the names, she already has a shrewd and capable impression of Shi Niang in her heart, and her sense of surprise is much less.

Eleven Niang called Binju and Zhu Xiang to come and let everyone draw up a menu together.

Tao's mother found that Eleven Niang knew a lot of dishes, and there were some that even she had never heard of.

Zhu Xiang couldn't help but hesitate: "What if the kitchen can't do it?" ”

"It's their business whether they can do it or not, and it's our business whether to make a list or not!" Binju disagreed, and added a "Buddha jumping over the wall" to the menu, "...... The most important ingredient can be abalone and sea cucumber, or pork belly and Chinese cabbage, I want to see how they deliver it! "A screwsome tone.

Mother Tao is naturally happy to see it.

The head of the third room overturned Yuan Niang's previous rules, which was to deny Yuan Niang's merits in disguise.

Shi Niang smiled and instructed Tao's mother: "Find a way to see what dishes are prepared in the five rooms." ”

Tao's mother immediately understood.

The fifth room is still pregnant, and the fourth room crosses the fifth room at this time, and others can't help but feel that the fourth room is stumbling in secret.

At this time, there is indeed some urgency to do so.

Tao's mother smiled and left.

Eleven Niang played there with Binju and Zhuxiang. When Amber came back and said that everyone was settled, she asked Amber to lead Binju and Zhuxiang to pick people: "...... Each of you is looking for your own helper. As for me, I only look for Zhu Xiang if I don't eat well, and I only look for Binju when I have no clothes to wear. ”

The two of them listened to it and showed a bit of solemnity, and followed Amber to pick people.

Holly smiled and remade a cup of tea for Eleven Niang.

Shi Niang held the teacup and couldn't help asking, "What time is it?" ”

Holly went to see the clock: "Shen Zheng has passed a moment." ”

Shi Niang couldn't help but be secretly anxious when she heard this.

At this time, the big * milk hasn't come yet, so it can't be that something happened, right?

Just thinking about it, a little maid came in and said, "The big * milk of the Luo family is here!" ”

"Come in, please!" Eleven Niang said as she greeted her.

The curtain of the door was lifted, and the big * milk wearing a golden silk tired phoenix and a pearl hairpin, and wearing a big red sleeved shirt, had hurried in.

There was a bit of eagerness between her eyebrows.

Shi Niang looked at her heart and secretly felt that it was not good, and hurriedly took the hand of the big * milk: "Why did you come at this time?" ”

"Oh no!" As soon as the big * grandmother said a word, there were tears in the corners of her eyes, "My mother heard that the two aunts were going to become monks in Ciyuan Temple, and she was so angry that she fainted. ”

I knew that the eldest lady would be angry, but I didn't expect to be angry like this.

"How's that happening now?"

"I've already invited Dr. Liu from Tai Hospital." The big * milk took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, "I haven't woken up." I was checking my pulse when I came. Dad was so anxious that he scolded. On your eldest brother's side, your fifth aunt's grandmother's side, I have sent someone to report the news. It's just that Aunt Ten doesn't know what to do? Back then, Wu Xiaoquan accompanied the fourth uncle to live in Yanjing for more than a year, and no one mentioned the matter of the fourth aunt......"
