068 Butler
The next day, Ye Qingshu began to learn housekeeping with Mama Dao, she was in charge of the entire Fu Mansion and Fu Anmin's huge number of concubines and children for 20 years, and now she is in charge of a clean second room in the back house.
It's just that she didn't dare to show her clues in front of Mama Dao, and made serious study and rapid progress to learn step by step, do it step by step, and strive to create a highly talented novice image.
She has a reputation for being smart since she was a child, although she has made rapid progress, Mama Dao is not suspicious, but very happy, she is a slave, no matter how capable she is, she is also limited by her identity and limited by her vision.
The branch doesn't care about anything, the eldest girl only likes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and now the second girl finally stands up and stands up to the second room!
Mama Dao happily gave the Bodhisattva three more incense sticks, praying that the Bodhisattva would give Ye Qingshu a good mother-in-law, but she didn't have to rush to marry early, at least until she was sixteen years old, well, eighteen years old is not too late!
……
……
Time slipped quickly in Ye Qingshu's "study hard", and Fang Yue also pretended to be the little sister of Peony and received various snacks from Peony's "aunt" several times.
When the hot summer passed, Mama Dao felt that it was time for Ye Qingshu's jade to show her edge, so she decided to let Ye Qingshu see the steward of the outer courtyard, and let out the wind that Ye Qingshu would personally check the accounts, and asked the stewards to send the account books of this season three days in advance.
The account books were sent quickly, Ye Qingshu and Mama Dao rushed to work day and night, and early on the morning of the third day, all the stewards entered Mingshangxuan from the corner door of the second room, and Mama Dao was there to see the stewards.
Mama Dao was wearing a camel-bottom tuanhua silk gown, a brown horse-faced skirt, and an old silver flat hairpin on her hair bun, capable and serious, with a straight face to greet the steward, and ordered the maid to serve tea.
The stewards were hiding things in their hearts, and after drinking half of the tea, someone appeared behind the twelve Shu brocade screens that had been erected, so they couldn't help but ask, "Mama Dao, didn't you say that the second girl wanted to see us in person?" ”
Mama Dao glanced at the steward, the steward's heart suddenly burst, and she was about to speak, Mama Dao had already put down the teacup and said, "Everyone is an old man in the house, and my wife and son have worked together for so many years, but there are some things that my wife can't bear not to say."
All the stewards stood up, bowed their hands, and said, "Please also ask Mama for advice."
Mama Dao accepted the salute calmly, waved her hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, "The lord of our house, everyone knows, the nineteen-year-old high school champion, the thirty-year-old Hanlin Academy, a few days ago, he was praised by the saint himself, to say something unhumble, the lord of our house is absolutely smart and extremely smart!" ”
Everyone should be harmonious, and there is honor, "Deserve it, who in this capital doesn't know that our master reads well, and the official does better, even if we go out to walk and have face!" ”
Mama Dao smiled meaningfully, "Although our second girl is only nine years old, she is at least eight points smart from the master!" ”
When everyone heard this, their hearts jumped, and the cold sweat suddenly came down, and they got the master's eight points of intelligence? What's that concept?
The old man is a big official, in charge of the huge Hanlin Academy, even the emperor praised him, and he scored eight points, and he wants to see that their little bit of fancy intestines is not a matter of raising his hand?
Someone was about to speak, when they heard the sound of light footsteps behind them, and everyone looked stunned and hurriedly stood up.
The footsteps gradually approached, and a crisp voice sounded, "Slave Fangyuan, I have seen all the stewards, the girl is a little uncomfortable today, so I won't come to see the stewards, there are a few account books, the girl said that she doesn't understand much, please take it back and redo it, and come back in three days."
After Fang Yuan finished speaking, he saluted, put down the tray in his hand and retreated, and Mama Dao got up and glanced at the stewards, "Since the girl is uncomfortable, my wife will not keep you, take the account books and go back separately, and come back in three days."
Mama Dao said and left, leaving only two little girls who were serving tea, and the stewards looked at each other, so they reached out anxiously to turn over the stack of account books, and let out a long sigh, "Mother, my old horse is sitting up straight, no matter how smart the second girl is, I'm afraid of a fart, and I'm scared of white sweat!" ”
The other stewards were also busy looking, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, "The second girl that Mama Dao said is smart, and she really didn't bluff us."
As he spoke, he squinted his eyes at the last few remaining stewards who didn't dare to move, with a look of "Lao Tzu knows that these old boys are not honest and can fool the knife mother, but they can't fool the smart second girl, and now the second girl is in charge, see how you end".
The stewards turned pale, stiffened and smiled, "There are a lot of things going on these days, maybe it's possible that the people below are making a mistake, so let's go back and investigate carefully."
The second girl only said that she couldn't see clearly, let them redo it, and didn't say anything else, it just means that they are not to blame in the past, they still have a chance!
……
……
Fang Yue returned to the peony courtyard and carefully explained the appearance of each steward and what he said to Ye Qingshu, Ye Qingshu ordered Du Juan to give her a string of money, and a plate of snacks, Fang Yue thanked her happily and retired.
Mama Huang watched Fang Yue go out, and couldn't help but chatter, "Girl, it's just to bring a cup of tea and reply, it's what that little hoof should do, why bother to give a reward?" Those little hooves are getting more and more out of order! ”
"The girl went and asked Miss Cuckoo, we have no money in the house, there are only a few pieces of broken silver left, not enough for the girl to give a reward three or twice, and it will take half a month to wait for the monthly money next month!"
Ye Qingling was too busy to take care of herself, so naturally she couldn't think of subsidizing Ye Qingshu again, in the past few months, Ye Qingshu didn't go to the Zhiguo Mansion again, and she didn't receive the monthly money given to her by the Zhiguo Mansion, so she became more and more stretched.
She searched for all the gold coins rewarded by the elders for the New Year's holidays and exchanged them for silver, so she lasted for so many days, but she couldn't hold on anymore.
Ye Qingshu slowly turned a page of the book and said casually, "What's the use of Mama telling me?" It's better to talk to Mama Zhi."
Mama Huang was stunned, girl, what does this mean? Do you blatantly ask your mother for money?
Ye Qingshu raised his head and smiled at Mama Huang, "Mama said that this is the reason?" ”
In the past few months, Mama Huang has also found some ways, knowing that Ye Qingshu saying this is equivalent to giving her an order, she nodded with a stiff face, and her heart was extremely sad and angry.
Ask for silver for her own girl and wife, she is probably the first among all the ladies in Beijing!
