Chapter 295: The Problem in the Mansion
In the blink of an eye, He Zhen has been Yunzhu's assistant for three or four days, and every morning after breakfast, she will come to He's mansion, and after dinner in the evening, she will return to her home.
At the beginning, He Zhen wanted to go home, Yunzhu was still a little worried, after all, she was a girl, if she encountered some trouble when she went home, how could it be good.
But He Zhen smiled and said that if it was long today, even if it was dinner, the sky would be bright, and Yunzhu pondered that it was indeed the case, so he went with her.
"Zhu'er, what do you think of He Zhen?" When He Zhen left, Old Man He looked at Yunzhu and asked.
"I've been observing these days, people are good, and if you train them well, you will be a good helper."
Hearing Old Man He's question, Yun Zhu smiled and spoke, she was still very satisfied with He Zhen.
"I guess when I was at home, Steward He didn't mention her less, and Mrs. He also taught her how to take care of housekeeping before, as well as reading the account book or something, I gave her the account book at home today and asked her to help me read it, although it was slower, but there was no mistake in the slightest."
"Well, that's fine." After listening to Yunzhu, Old Man He nodded, "Then let him continue to follow you, but it's not enough to just take care of housekeeping, and reading the account book, she is young, and there are many old people in this mansion......"
The latter words, Old Man He didn't say it, but Yun Zhu also understood what he meant.
"Don't worry, grandpa, I understand what you mean, I've already thought about it."
Smiled and nodded, Yun Zhu had already thought of this, seeing that she already had an idea, Old Man He didn't say anything more, these things, just leave them to Yun Zhu to do.
…………
"He Zhen, you can take a look at this account." Handing the ledger in his hand to He Zhen, Yunzhu stretched out his hand and pointed to one of them, "You help me see, isn't it weird?" ”
Hearing Yun Zhu say this, He Zhen took the account book in Yun Zhu's hand, carefully looked at the position of her finger, and after looking at it for a while, He Zhen frowned.
"Grandma Sun, it seems that she has a bad account, I remember that when I went home a few days ago, I also helped the family buy things, including these things, and the price is much lower than this."
After listening to He Zhen, Yunzhu raised her eyebrows, "Lower than this price?" Let's go, let's stop reading the ledger, let's go around the streets. ”
After saying that, Yunzhu got up, went to the inner room to change his clothes, and then went out with He Zhen.
"Where did you buy it before, let's go over there first, maybe the price has increased in the past few days."
Nodding, He Zhen took Yunzhu along his usual way home, and when he arrived at the stall where he bought things last time, He Zhen greeted Yunzhu.
"Grandma Sun, this is the stall where I bought things last time."
He Zhen probably remembered the things in the account book just now, and she didn't wait for Yunzhu to ask, so she took the initiative to ask the store, "Boss, how are these ginger and garlic sold?" And eggs, how much money? ”
Hearing He Zhen's question, Yunzhu stood beside her, looking at the surrounding streets, waiting for the stall shopkeeper's answer by the way.
"Oh, do you buy something? You came a few days ago, I remember you, or that price, you can rest assured that it is, our price is guaranteed to be affordable and fair! ”
The owner of this stall has a good memory, and when he saw He Zhen, he replied with a smile.
"Nacheng, then give me some eggs, the ginger and garlic I bought last time haven't been eaten at home."
After all, it was a small stall for others, and it was always difficult not to buy something, so He Zhen bought a few eggs and spent a few pennies.
Leaving the stall, Yun Zhu asked the subordinates who followed him to take the eggs He Zhen bought, and then took her to a few more stalls.
The price of the inquiry is not much different from the price of He Zhen's purchases, so it seems that there is indeed something wrong with the accounts of the house.
Unexpectedly, Steward He was not there for a few days, and the steward in this mansion dared to do tricks on the accounts, Yunzhu sneered at the doctor and took He Zhen back to the mansion.
"Young Grandma Sun, what are you going to do about this?" Looking at Yunzhu, He Zhen opened his mouth to ask her opinion.
"What are you going to do if it were you?" Originally, Yunzhu wanted to find something to come out and take a look at He Zhen's ability to do things, but he didn't expect that he hadn't found it yet, so he took the initiative to find something.
"If it were me, I would gather all the stewards together, and then talk about the accounts, and make an example."
After thinking about it carefully, He Zhen spoke, since there is a steward who dares to do this, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be a second steward to do this, and the best way is to directly expose this matter and let them know the fate of doing so.
After listening to He Zhen, Yunzhu was silent for a moment, she was thinking about the pros and cons of doing so.
He Zhen stood aside, waiting for Yunzhu to speak, she was a little apprehensive in her heart, because she didn't know what her method was?
Yunzhu didn't know the apprehension in He Zhen's heart, speaking of which, He Zhen's method was feasible, but Yunzhu felt that this He Mansion was so big, there might not be only such a moth.
Although it is said to be an example, it may not really be able to scare anyone, if you can find a way to do it once and for all, it would be great.
"Grandma Sun, do you think my method is feasible?" After not seeing Yunzhu open his mouth for a long time, He Zhen couldn't help but ask.
Coming back to her senses, Yunzhu smiled apologetically and looked at He Zhen, "I think things are in a trance, I'm really embarrassed." ”
"The method you said is feasible, but I wonder if there must be more than one such person in this house, but relying on this time, I'm afraid that the effect will not be great, how can I make those people have a sense of crisis?"
Speaking his thoughts, Yunzhu beckoned He Zhen to sit beside him, and the two of them discussed the way.
Until the evening, there was no clue, Yun Zhu reached out and rubbed his eyebrows, "That's it, let's do this first, let's think slowly, write this down in advance." ”
"Okay." Nodding, the discussion all afternoon was fruitless, He Zhen also felt a little tired, and accompanied Yunzhu to the front hall to eat, and He Zhen left the He family.
"When I was eating, I looked at you as if I had something on my mind, what's wrong?"
When accompanying Yunzhu back to the courtyard, Shu Sirui opened his mouth and asked, he was basically not at home during the day these days, and the emperor arranged a job for him to help train recruits every day.
Although it is a training for recruits, it is not too hard, Shu Sirui only goes after breakfast every day, and comes back before dinner.
After all, he is only assisting, not practicing himself, and if he is allowed to practice himself, he will not agree.
After all, it's so hard, and I can't go home to accompany Yunzhu.
"It's not ......" told Shu Sirui about the problems he found when he checked the accounts during the day, "I'm thinking, did you ever have such a problem when Steward He was here before?" ”
In the past, when Steward He was there, Yun Zhu also followed the account book and didn't find much of a problem, after all, Steward He had already read it once, so Yun Zhu was not careful when he looked at it.
Now that Steward He is still resting, the He Mansion is in her hands, and when she looks at the account book again, Yunzhu naturally looks at it very seriously, and it is because of this that she will find out about that problem.
"I guess there have been, but there are some problems, and Steward He is not easy to deal with, so he has been ignoring them."
There is a lot of knowledge in the big house, although Shu Sirui is not interested in these things, but he also knows some.
"Steward He also knows?" Yun Zhu's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly figured it out, indeed, the He family's house is so big, and it is indeed hard for Steward He to take care of it alone.
He can control himself not to covet small profits, but he can't control others, although he is a housekeeper, but the others in this house are not just one or two.
In a big mansion, you have to learn to turn a blind eye, which is good for everyone, that is, as long as they are not too excessive, generally speaking, Steward He will save them some face.
"But I don't want to do that, what should I do?" Back in the yard, the two did not enter the house, as if it was not too dark today, the two simply sat in the yard and chatted.
"If you don't want that, then think of a way." Shu Sirui is very supportive of Yunzhu, no matter what she wants, he is supportive.
It's just that this support can only be mental, after all, he has not been exposed to the things in this house.
"But what can be done? I don't have a clue at all, I don't think I can make an example of this, and the best way is to let them supervise each other. ”
Speaking of this, Yunzhu paused, "Mutual supervision...... Mutual supervision ......"
After repeating it several times in a row, Yun Zhu felt that she seemed to have some vague thoughts in her heart, but she had not completely completed this idea.
To do this kind of thing, you have to do it once, if you can't do it this time, you want to wait until the next time, and you have to find an opportunity.
At the moment, because the stewards in the palace are used to this way, they will have their horses' feet exposed for Yunzhu to grab.
But once they do something to let them know that they want to change the situation, they will be careful.
In that case, it will not be easy to grab the horse's feet.
Seeing Yun Zhu repeating what she said, with confusion and thought in her eyes, Shu Sirui didn't bother her, just sat quietly beside her, waiting for Yun Zhu to figure it out.
However, this method could not be thought of all at once, and after a while, Yunzhu sighed.
"If you can't think of it, take a break, maybe you can ask your grandfather, after all, ginger is old and spicy."
Seeing Yunzhu like this, Shu Sirui shook her hand and comforted her with a smile.
"It seems that I can only wait until tomorrow to talk to my grandfather, maybe he can give me some advice."
Yun Zhu nodded, he was still young in the end, and he was still inexperienced in dealing with some things.
Now I only hope that tomorrow's conversation with my grandfather, Mr. He, will allow her to find some thoughts.
