Chapter 618: Two Groups of People

After the stewards left, Du Jingyi called Mama Dou forward.

"Cherry, move a stool for Mama to sit on."

"Yes, ma'am."

Mama Dou is not formal, her old man has served the Gu family for three generations, so it can be regarded as a meritorious achievement of the family.

After sitting down, Mama Dou looked at Du Jingyi and said with a smile on her face.

"Madame, if you have something to say, just say it, my wife listens."

"It's still Mama Dou is refreshing, that's the case, Mother Cai stayed in Sui'an City to guard, and I don't see any other suitable candidates among the people who came with me this time, so I want Mama to help teach Cherry, so that she can look like an aunt, and the housekeeper will be more comfortable in the future, but I don't know if it will make Mama tired?"

"Where, cherry to be the person in charge of this is very suitable, she has been waiting by the side of Mrs. in the past, so there should be a lot of things to listen to and learn, I have nothing to teach the old woman, but as long as she asks, there is nothing to say!"

This is true, more than ten years of experience, Cherry's ability is now obvious to all.

The only thing that is still lacking is probably to stack it over the years, so Mama Dou doesn't take credit, but if Cherry doesn't understand, come and ask her, she must give it to her.

Therefore, after hearing this, Du Jingyi glanced at the cherry, and she immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Mama Dou.

"Let Mama bother, in the future, I will have to bother your old man."

"Cherry is polite to me."

Du Jingyi smiled with satisfaction, the person in charge of this courtyard has to be selected, and he can live comfortably in the future.

And the problem of this selection was temporarily solved, and soon faced with the matter of selecting a mason.

In the afternoon, the two groups of people came according to the hour, and they all stood outside respectfully, Du Jingyi was a little late after getting up, and Steward He was still as calm as ever, but his eyes never left these two groups of people, in order to see them clearly.

The shopkeeper Zheng introduced it was a team of locals in Cezhou.

It can be seen that they are all honest characters, and there have never been any wealthy families in this Cezhou, so they suddenly came to the general's mansion, and they are a little uncomfortable.

But he still stood in a regular manner, and wanted to look left and right slightly, but he didn't dare.

On the other hand, the two masonry teams introduced by Shopkeeper Yao are much calmer, and their heads are not humble or arrogant, but if you take a closer look, there are two more points of pride in their expressions.

Their every move was seen by Steward He, and it didn't take long for Shuxiu to walk out.

"Steward He, Madame let the people in charge of the two families go in for questioning."

"Okay."

Soon, Steward He led people into the hall.

"The little one has seen the lady."

The first to ask for peace was naturally the one who came with Ancheng, and the one in Cezhou was a little hindsight, and after listening to him, he also followed along.

"The little one has seen the lady."

The temperament of the two is clear at a glance, and Du Jingyi, who has just woken up, is in good spirits, so he is in a good mood, and when he saw the two of them walk in, he didn't feel much embarrassed, and said.

"Presumably the two of you also know the purpose of inviting you over, the General's Mansion has not been repaired for many years, so there are many places to move this time, starting with the east and west two courtyards, if I am satisfied with the repair, then in the future, the main courtyard will also let you arrange to renovate it."

Du Jingyi's words were clear and direct.

Therefore, when the one in Cezhou was still thinking about how to answer, the other person opened his mouth first.

"The small surname is Deng, who was originally working in Sui'an City, and the people who participated in the renovation have the Guogong Mansion and the mansions of ministers and important officials, so they still know some of the rules of action, if the lady does not dislike it, the small one is willing to bring the team over, and he will do his best to do this errand!"

"Oh? Guogong Mansion has also been there? ”

"I've been there, it's the Fengguo Mansion that has some relationship with the General's Mansion, I heard that Mrs. Fengshao and the General's wife have a good relationship, so the little one has the courage to go this way, whether the craftsmanship is good or not, Mrs. can go and ask the Guogong Mansion to know."

There was a lot of pride in that person's tone, and it could be seen that he should have the ability, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat this bowl of rice from the Guogong Mansion, but Du Jingyi didn't like this kind of person who used his relationship to get close to him without authorization.

Regardless of anything else, if there is a problem in the future, I am afraid that this kind of person will seek refuge if he opens his mouth and closes his mouth, and when the time comes, don't pull the flag of Fengguo Gongjia to make trouble with him, that is uncomfortable.

Therefore, I immediately had the idea of abandoning it in my heart, and my face naturally lightened a lot.

So he looked at the slightly restrained one on the other side, and his tone was much kinder than just now, and he asked.

"I heard Uncle Zheng say that your craftsmanship is very good."

"Let Mrs. see a smile, the team is all countrymen, I haven't seen anything in the world, I only know how to work hard, so the craftsmanship is reasonable, but we went to repair the largest house before, that is, the outside house, this general's mansion really hasn't come in, I don't know if Mrs. wants to tear down the reconstruction or make changes from local materials?"

"Huh? What is the difference between the two? ”

"If Mrs. plans to tear down and rebuild, then the few people in our team will definitely not be enough, the small knows a good hand who builds a house, and the people under him are also careful, they are much more useful than us, but if it is just a change from local materials, then the small one wants to see the place first, if it can be done, it will definitely try, but if it can't be done, it will not delay Mrs., bluntly!"

His temper is straightforward, and he doesn't detour when he comes up, and he makes it clear about his abilities and ability limitations when he picks up the key points, so Du Jingyi is also interested.

"I've seen two cross-courtyards before, the west cross-courtyard is going to be demolished and rebuilt, I don't need any of those houses, just build a pavilion and a place for hospitality, but the east cross-courtyard is mainly to change the pattern, and the most important thing is to build a larger pool, so that the children in the house can wash."

"Dare to ask, is there a lot of young masters in the house?"

"Well, four or five hairy boys, maybe more in a few days."

"I see, the little heart has a number, I happened to work for a boss in the east of the city, that is, I made a bathhouse, and I painted a scoop according to the gourd, but it was not a problem!"

The man was quick to speak, and he hurriedly said this, but as soon as the man next to him heard it, he immediately shouted.

"The people in the house are all precious young masters, can the things used be the same as the bathhouses outside? Or do you paint a scoop according to the gourd? I think you're just too little knowledge, and you're talking nonsense here! ”
