Chapter 44 The Running Account of the Mansion
Yan Shu smiled secretly in his heart, the boys know that they are afraid.
"Get up first, it's cold on the ground. From now on, whatever the previous name was, the new name will be used. You, 20,000, you 30,000......" Yan Shu nodded in turn, until he reached 60,000. The target unit of wealth is tens of thousands of taels.
At this moment, the cook and the stout woman came from the large kitchen of the west courtyard to greet them.
The cook took off the keychain from her waist, respectfully handed it to Yan Shu, and said, "Master, remember that you have explained that you must not move, everything is waiting for your arrangement, and when you come, you will lock the main courtyard and the backyard, as well as the large and small doors that can be locked across the courtyard." The keys are all here. ”
Seeing a maid take the key, she took out another purse and began to report the account.
"Yesterday, the master gave five taels of silver, and exchanged it for money to buy seven sets of second-hand bedding in the grocery store, each set of 300 wen, and cost two 100 wen. Buy a basket of coarse charcoal for twenty catties, and it costs fifty wen. It costs 15 wen to buy a load of chopping firewood, four large iron pots in the kitchen, and four pairs of cage fans, which cost 45 wen, and there are enough brown rice and black flour buds and salt for three days to cost 200 wen, a total of two guan 410 wen, and the remaining two guan 590 wen. ”
When Yan Shu heard it, the door was clear, talent! He grabbed the key point and asked: "What's the matter with the seven sets of bedding?" Who doesn't? ”
The cook replied, "Master, it's small. The small family lives locally, and the bedding brought by itself can still be used. ”
This cook Yan Shu remembers clearly, the people in the city, widowed for many years, with two children and in-laws to live together, usually by helping people to cook to earn money, since her father-in-law was sick and borrowed, she couldn't bear the famine more and more, and finally had to sell herself at one time to get a big head, just happened to be met by Yan Shu.
"Well, though, the money you saved doesn't belong to you, it's still public. And for the sake of your faithfulness to your lord's house, I will reward you with three hundred and fifty denarii alone. Come and see the reward. ”
The cook immediately refused, "I can't do it, I can't help it, this is the duty of the villain, and I don't deserve to be rewarded so much." ”
"I said I deserved it. Listen to the few of you, I will assign errands now: in the future, in this house, when I am not there, the cook Li will temporarily act as the housekeeper, and the food and clothing will be arranged by her until the master sends the next housekeeper to take over. The servant Merriam-Webster gave Lee a hand in the kitchen. The six of them are a small team, responsible for guarding the gate and patrolling the whole house, with 10,000 as the team leader, and all of you must listen to him. Also, these two girls are the green aunt and the red aunt beside the young master, and when I don't come, they may also come over and send you, as if the young master is there in person. Finally, I have to set up a few rules, the first of all, close the door every day, strictly prohibit going out without permission, give and receive private advice from outside the house, strictly prevent people I don't know from entering the house to snoop, and prohibit revealing any government affairs news. Second, there is still a plaque hanging above the gate of the original owner's house, Chaifu, and he still claims to be from Chaifu on Rongjin Street when he goes out on an errand. Article 3 ......"
Alas, I didn't even have to drink saliva, Yan Shu said as her throat began to tighten again. I really feel that I have fallen into a big sand pit when I bought these people. I've never seen a heroine like her who pretends to be a housekeeper to train a domestic servant, isn't it seamless when she buys someone, and she doesn't have to worry about anything?
Green Cloud and Ruby are not fully aware of their intentions, and they can't get started here in the new mansion for a while, so they can only do everything themselves.
At this time, I suddenly heard another knock on the door.
