The weather was ok, the sun was not too big, and there was a slight cool breeze.

More than a dozen selected second-class stewards and third-class stewards stood in the courtyard of Changchun Garden. Wen Jing asked someone to move a chair under the porch, and the mother-in-law peeked from a distance, only to see the crown princess and the princess with a head full of pearls and bright red Kodan.

"I've been in the East Palace for a month, and if there is a banquet in the house in a few days, there will be more things, and things in the backyard are not good, and there is no charter."

Mama Fang stood slightly in the front position, and her heart tightened when she listened, and her face was not good.

Wen Jing inquired in the backyard, she knew that it was normal for the housemother to ask about personnel, and Mama Fang couldn't stop her. Unexpectedly, looking at today's posture, it is to change the backyard.

"The crown princess, the affairs of the backyard have always been in the hands of slaves and maids. If the mother wants to ask, the slave is the clearest. Mama Fang stepped forward, and her attitude was fine, but Mama Fang looked directly at Wen Jing.

The people in the courtyard immediately lowered their heads to death, for fear of being implicated.

Wen Jing smiled lightly, and without her signal, Zhuyun walked to the front in two steps: "Mama Fang, the crown princess is the main room of His Royal Highness's wife, and His Royal Highness entrusts her with the middle feed, and she is the main mother in the prince's mansion." Mama, don't forget your identity. ”

Her voice was not loud, but the stewards and servants present could hear it clearly.

"Mama is old, I have asked the queen mother to let you go to Zhuangzi to raise you, and Mama will leave in a while." Of course, Wen Jing didn't tell Queen Song about Mama Fang, she didn't need anyone's permission to manage the backyard, this was the right given to her by the prince's wife as the crown princess. Even if Queen Song is held accountable, the evidence that Mama Fang has done is there, and Wen Jing is not afraid.

Mama Fang is a person who thinks she is the queen's mother, and she has been in charge of the backyard of the prince's mansion for many years, and she doesn't take Wen Jing in her eyes at all.

Now that the crown princess actually said that she was going to send her out, Mama Fang's anger swelled up, she didn't care about anything else, and said in a loud voice: "The crown princess, the slave maid is the queen's mother, and you have no right to dispose of the slave maid." ”

Wen Jing's fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest, and she gave Mama Fang a chance: "Zhuyue, read the accounts to Mama Fang." ”

"In the eighteenth year of Kant, on the fourth day of October, the kitchen purchased Jiangnan tribute rice, fruits and vegetables in the season, and 30 catties of chickens, ducks, geese, meat and eggs...... A total of fifty silver and ten cents. Mama Fang, I'm not wrong, right? ”

Mama Fang's face turned a little blue, she thought that Wen Jing was just a girl from the General's Mansion who didn't touch the spring water with her fingers, and she couldn't find out the problem with the accounts so quickly, so she would just make up the accounts later.

Now, she couldn't say a word for a while.

"Mama Fang, I miss that you have served by the side of the queen mother for many years, and you have done your best for the prince's mansion, leaving you a bit of dignity, what about Mama's choice?" Wen Jing looked at Mama Fang, with coldness in her eyes.

If Mama Fang just ate some oil and water from it, Wen Jing didn't bother to move her, at most she would replace her from the oily and watery affairs.

But Zhuyun Zhuyue checked it and learned that Mama Fang used the money in the public account to honor Song Liangdi, and Song Liangdi spent a lot of jewelry with the silver in the public account. In order to settle this account, Mama Fang changed the example of Tian Fengyi and others. Naturally, those who have pets and backers are not afraid of Mama Fang's deductions, and Qu Chenghui, Luo Zhaoxun, Tian Fengyi and the concubine Li, An's are not even favored, and they can't even get the share they should give.

Wen Jing understands that when the water is clear, there are no fish, and she can turn a blind eye if she eats less oil and water, but she must kill Mama Fang's "chicken".

Mama Fang's face turned from blue to white, and from white to blue. Suddenly, it was like ten years old, and he sighed in despair: "The slave and maid are not in good spirits, I am afraid that they are not qualified for the position of steward, and they are willing to go to Zhuangzi to be honored." ”

Wen Jing laughed and instructed Lan Yuan: "You go and help Mama Fang pack up her things, and then go to the account to get two more months of monthly silver for Mama Fang." ”

Mama Fang thanked Wen Jing, and the dumb person couldn't say that he was suffering from eating Coptis chinensis.

Everyone watched Mama Fang leave like this, and they all felt in a trance for a while, and the chief steward in the prince's mansion went on like this.

Mama Liu, who was assigned by the inner servant, was happy, and when the crown princess sent someone to contact her, she knew that there was such a day, and after all these years, she would be able to have a bright future.

Wen Jing picked up the teacup and moistened her throat, she saw Mama Liu's red face: "Mama Liu, you are from the province." They all say that you are a real personality, and I believe you once. You just have to take care of the rules in the backyard, although the rules are dead and the rules are fixed, but you can't be too rigid. ”

"Yes, the slave will definitely do her best to live up to the trust of the crown princess." This is an important job, and the fact that the crown princess can give her this job shows that it is important. Mama Liu even claimed that it was, smiling happily.

Wen Jing bowed his head and chose a mother-in-law surnamed Zhang to be the second-class manager. Mrs. Zhang is very popular, and she is sleek, and she and Mama Liu complement each other.

"Mama Shi, you are older and know a lot. Before, I saw that you were in charge of everything, and I took care of personnel. I still have a lot of things I don't understand, and I ask Mama Shi for advice. ”

Mama Shi looked up in surprise, she was originally following Mama Fan in Guanlan Garden. Wen Jing was not familiar with the comings and goings of the Prince's Mansion, so she asked her to help, and she didn't think that she could be a first-class steward.

"Okay, Mrs. Zhuang will be the second-class steward next to you, she has been a deputy before, so I won't change it." Wen Jing is also satisfied.

"As for purchasing, Aunt Yinqiao, I'll leave it to you for a while, and let the bamboo moon beside me help you for a month. If you do it well, you will be in charge of the purchase in the future, and then you will choose a second-class steward yourself. ”

In fact, this purchase should be handed over to someone who is extremely trusted, but the manpower around Wen Jing is really not enough, she has made thousands of choices, and inquired carefully a few times before choosing Yinqiao out.

Yinqiao was only a third-class steward before, but he was in his thirties, but he was serious about talking and doing things, and he had a good reputation among the slaves.

Wen Jing inquired about what she had done before, and felt that Yinqiao was a usable one, so let's try it first.

From a third-class steward to a first-class steward, and it is such a heavy task as procurement, Yinqiao's excited hands trembled a little, and his face was steady: "Yes, the slave and maid thank you for the trust of the princess and the princess, and you will never let it down." ”

In the backyard warehouse, the key was placed here by Wen Jing, and the steward was temporarily handed over to Mrs. Wu. She used to be a bookkeeper and had a flexible mind.

The chores were arranged by an aunt named Zhu Yan, who was also brought up by Wen Jing, but there was nothing to be fished out of the chores, and most of the eyes of everyone were still focused on Yinqiao.

"Most of you are from the Inner Chamberlain, and the vacation and the moon silver are the same as before, but ......" Wen Jing paused.

"If you make a mistake and find out, whether it is the housekeeper or the people below, you don't have to come to me to beg for mercy, you can send it directly to the provincial palace minister." Wen Jing put down the teacup in his hand and let out a soft sound.

The stewards, who were still a little excited just now, were all in the same place.

"But if you do well, you will be rewarded." Wen Jing was slow and reasonable, and his tone was light, "I am a good talker, I don't want you to be loyal, I just need to perform my duties and do my part well." ”

And all the people below answered and said something that they did not dare to be faithful.

"So be it, I'm going to see what you're doing for the next month, and at the end of the month, I'm going to look at the books everywhere." Wen Jing got up and took Lan Yuan's hand back to the house.
