Chapter 247: Excitement (I)
Amber said about her handling of the little maid: "...... Let them know. Who has the final say in this yard! ”
Eleven Niang nodded with a smile and gave verbal praise: "Not bad, not bad." The response was quick. ”
Amber's eyebrows lit up when she heard this, but it quickly dimmed again: "Madame said that I reacted quickly, but she didn't say whether it was handled properly. Madame ...... "I want to say something."
Shibei three days, to be impressed!
"For now, you've got to deal with it properly." Eleven Niang pointed to the brocade on the side and asked Amber to sit down, and said softly and slowly, "But you have to remember a little." The same rice, raising a hundred kinds of people. It is impossible for everyone to be faithful to us, and it is impossible for everyone to respect us. For example, the people in our yard. Most of them were left by the eldest sister before, and they received the favor of the eldest sister and were grateful to the eldest sister. Therefore, it is human nature to have some resistance to those of us who are new here. ”
Amber nodded.
"For those people, we just want them to be honest and do their part. As for the rest, don't force it. On the contrary, like Holly and Hamaju, they are different. They were brought into the house by me, they were my companions, and they were the housekeepers of this courtyard. In addition to being honest and doing good jobs, you must also know that you are loyal.
Amber listened, looking down in thought.
"As long as you can be by my side to share my worries. The people left behind by the eldest sister can do things honestly, and this courtyard will naturally be clean and safe. That's why I said, you acted very cleverly, punished the little maid in time, and killed the chicken to show the monkey, which played a deterrent role. Very well done. ”
Amber listened even more confused: "In that case, why did the lady ......?"
"I just wanted to talk to you about it."
Eleven Niang's attitude was more gentle.
"Among the people left by the eldest sister, there are those who are shrewd and capable like Tao's mother and have dignity in front of their masters, and there are also people like Green Cloud and Red Embroidery who were selected to serve by their side just because they were smart and clever. Like Tao's mother, in terms of feelings, she is the eldest sister's nurse, and in terms of time together, from the birth of the eldest sister to her death; In terms of favor, her son is now in charge of the eldest sister's eldest Zhuangzi. Unless it's an ungrateful villain, otherwise, if I fall into the water at the same time as my eldest sister, she must be the first to jump into the river to save my eldest sister, even if I am within her reach, she will save my eldest sister first, not me. ”
Amber was a little dumbfounded when she saw Eleven Niang make such an analogy. But if you think about it, there's really no way to deny it.
"But if you change to green clouds and red embroidery, I'm afraid it will be different. Even if they will jump down to save the eldest sister, if I am closer to them than the eldest sister, at the beginning of the human being. is good, they are afraid that they will save me first, and then save the eldest sister. Think about it, isn't that the truth? ”
Amber's eyes showed a few pieces of clarity: "Do you mean that if Mother Tao makes a mistake, it can't be punished too much." But if Green Cloud and Red Embroidery make a mistake, they can be punished lightly......"
Eleven Niang laughed: "I touched a little door, but I haven't been able to enter the door yet." Think again! ”
Amber tilted her head and thought for a long time, and finally said in a sneering voice: "Madam, I'm stupid, let's listen to you!" ”
"This rule is the rule, and whoever violates it is the same punishment. You sent the little maid to the pulp washing room, and said that she should wash the bedding of the whole house, she is young, and I am afraid that she will not be able to stand it in a few days. ”
"So, what then?" A fine layer of sweat came out of her amber sideburns.
"Take something to the little maid's house and see who is in charge of the little maid's house. Then tell them about it. Explain clearly what she has done and why she should be punished. also told her that the people in the family would not be able to stand it. Ask her family to pick her up. In charge, you can help intercede, and as for the money from selling her body, you can also help her out. ”
"Then, what should I punish her for!" Amber couldn't help but snort.
"We have no grudge against her in the past, and we have no grudge in the near future. Why do you have to force people down the road of hating us? Eleven Niang sighed faintly.
"But," she said, with a change in her tone, "there are some people who can't win them over even if we have a good heart, and if they make a mistake, it's really bad luck." If we hate us for this, we can't do it, right? As she spoke, she winked at Amber, "Then let them hate as much as they want!" ”
Amber immediately understood.
"That's exactly what Madame said." She was a little excited, "Rules are dead, people are alive." If you break the rules, everyone will be punished. But this board is beaten, whether to give medicine, what medicine to take, and when to take medicine, but it is our business. ”
"Finally, I didn't waste my words in vain." Seeing that she understood, Eleven Niang was quite happy in her heart, and called Amber, "Go, I only know how to learn the rules from me, but I don't know how to pour a cup of tea for me to moisten my throat." ”
"Oops!" Amber jumped, "It's all the slave's fault." Hurriedly poured out the cold tea in front of Shi Niang and replaced it with a cup of hot tea.
"I heard Sister Holly say. When Mrs. used to be in Yuhang, she drank Tieguanyin in spring and summer, Qi Hong in autumn and winter, and then added two spoons of honey to Qi Hong. But I followed you, but I saw you drinking Longjing......" She sat on the brocade and talked to Eleven Niang, "Is the tea we brewed not as good as you want?" ”
Eleven Niang took a sip of hot tea and asked her with a smile: "Can you see who put honey in it when drinking Qi Hong?" ”
Amber thought for a moment and shook her head: "I've seen a lot, so naturally I haven't seen it." ”
"It's not like you haven't seen it. It's true that very few people drink tea like this. Eleven Niang's voice was a little long, it was not like it to say it was sad, it was not like it to say that it was happy, let alone talk about it, which made Amber feel weird when she heard it, "So, we have to work hard for Qi Hong who can drink honey in winter." ”
Amber was confused when she heard this: "But the lotus leaf in the fifth lady's house said that the second lady also put the red-hot stone in the tea to drink!" Madame wants to add some honey to Qi Hong, what's out of the ordinary. ”
Eleven Niang laughed when she heard it.
After laughing, he said to Amber with a straight face: "New little maids have to learn rules, and these rules are the code of conduct for maids and daughters-in-law." You go and copy a copy and ask everyone to memorize it again. Then make it clear to them that in the future, you will follow the rules. If anyone commits a crime, you will do it. It can also be less resentful. ”
She still has a lot to do - Chang Jiuhe just took over the Zhuangzi who married her, and she doesn't know what today's harvest will be? The flower shop can't be opened, and I have to think of other ways. It's the end of January now, and Xu Lingyi wants to send those stewards involved in the mildew incident in the past few days, Liu Yuanrui's eldest son in her room is twelve years old this year, and Chang Jiuhe's second son is ten years old this year. There are also Chang Jiuhe's eldest daughter and Wan Yizong's eldest daughter, who have also reached the age when they can enter the mansion on an errand, and she hasn't seen them yet...... She didn't want to get bogged down in all this mess every day.
Amber nodded. I saw Eleven Niang in a good mood again. The body that had been sitting straight leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "Madam, when I went back to Gongxian Hutong, I heard Sister Coral say that the eldest lady asked you to collect someone in the house for Master Hou." Her eyes flickered, "I'm afraid that Master Hou will not be satisfied, and I want to pick a few more of our original sisters to let Master Hou take a look......"
Eleven Niang looked at it and smiled: "What do you want to say?" ”
Amber's face immediately turned crimson, and she said, "Madam, look at me, I ......"
When the two of them were talking in the house, Tao's mother was looking at her mother-in-law who was reporting to her and sneered.
"It's really hard to grow wings, even a little maid dares to shake her face, I saw it."
"Yes, Mom!" The woman said indignantly, "As the saying goes, people don't hit people in the face." Amber's little hoof was named. If you don't want to find a way to Zhenzhen's little hooves, I'm afraid that I will ...... in the future," she said, and she cautiously looked at Tao's mother's ** expression.
Mother Tao just smiled when she heard this, let the little maid next to her take twenty yuan, and sent away with a sentence of "buy wine for my mother to eat".
The curtain was lifted, and he walked out wearing an official green silk jacket and an evening incense with a red gold double hairpin.
"I said that little girl has a sweet mouth and bitter mouth, you know it now, right?" There was a hint of mockery on her face.
If it was the past, Mother Tao's sharp eyes would have flown over a long time ago. But now, when I think of Brother Chen...... She swallowed her unhappiness and took a deep breath.
Seeing that Tao's mother, who had always been strong, softened, Wanxiang couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart.
She leaned over to Tao's mother and sat down: "What I beg you for...... You see? ”
"No!" Tao's mother categorically refused, "Master Hou just wants to accept the people in the room, that's Madame's business." I'm not going to meddle. ”
"Oops, my good mother!" The sarcasm on Wanxiang's face deepened, "You still think you are the Tao mother back then." The current Mrs. Yongping Hou is not the eldest lady of the year. Your loyalty and courage also need to be bought! Besides, I don't want you to recommend people to Madame, I just want you to help me take a look, see when Hou Ye will go to the outer courtyard, and let her meet Hou Ye when the time comes. No, that's a blessing for her, and I'm just as grateful to you for your great help; It's done. Let our lady cut it in her heart! As he spoke, he lowered his voice, "Just look at it, live a Qiuluo!" ”
Mother Tao raised her eyebrows, and there was a little coldness between her eyebrows. "I'm in a bad mood today, so you should go back early! Be your errand and don't think about this mess. ”
The evening fragrance made the chest rise and fall, and it was only after a while that he gritted his teeth and said: "Mom is so ruthless, don't blame me for being unrighteous." He turned around and left.
Tao's mother's face turned blue.
The little maid who came to clean up the teacup looked at it and was a little worried in her eyes: "Mom, Sister Wanxiang ......"
"Don't mention the mallet. She is having a hard time now, the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, and her heart is blinded by oil. As he spoke, the man suddenly stood up and said to the little maid, "I'll come when I go!" ”
