Chapter 23 General Affairs

Early the next morning, Xiahou got up early.

Sitting in front of the dresser, Green Lake, which is usually numb, took twice as long to take care of his hair today. Chunya also picked up the clothes, and tossed back and forth for a long time before choosing a set of red clothes, and wearing the ruby head given by the old lady.

After helping Xiahou Shuang tidy up, Chunya praised: "Miss's dress is really imposing, those in charge will not dare to peep in." ”

"Yes, I don't dare to peep. "The silent green lake is rare to echo the words of spring buds today.

Seeing that the few maids around him were more nervous than herself, Xia Houshuang couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry, I will convince them." ”

"I knew that Miss was the best, and I would make them obedient. Chunya spared no effort to continue touting.

When a few people were joking, Qiaoyu brought some pastries, Xiahou Shuang used some at will, and the little maid who came in outside the door reported that the stewards of all places had arrived.

When Xiahou Shuang arrived in the courtyard, more than a dozen stewards from all over the place stood with their hands down and had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time. Chunya moved a Taishi chair and waited for Xiahou Shuang to sit down. Yueyun motioned to the stewards of all places to come forward and report one by one.

After seeing Xiahou Shuang come out, the stewards cheered up and responded, although everyone was a little surprised why they would let the eldest lady manage the affairs, even if the eldest lady needed to take care of the third lady, and the second lady, the old lady crossed the second lady and did not need to let the eldest lady take charge of the middle feed, which shows the status of the eldest lady in the old lady's heart.

What's more, the old lady had already let the housekeeper beat them one by one the day before, so although everyone muttered in their hearts, they still didn't dare to slack off.

Except for some mothers-in-law Xiahou Shuang, who occasionally saw one or two on weekdays, the rest were unfamiliar faces.

Some of the stewards returned the pairs of cards they received yesterday, and after checking the accounts one by one, Miss Yueyun nodded to Xiahou Shuang. He also distributed a pair of cards, and after checking the number of people who needed to leave the house today, he let all the people disperse.

Inside the house, Xiahou Shuang smiled and said to Yueyun: "Thanks to Miss Yueyun today, otherwise it would not have ended so smoothly." ”

Yueyun pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss is too famous, I'm just a handicap, so it's really a slave to say this." ”

"If I leave you in Biluoxuan for a long time, I don't know what Miss Yueyun wants?" asked Xiahou Shuang lightly.

This month, Yunsheng is smart and clever, although she is the big girl next to the old lady, but she is not arrogant or impatient, and all rooms are praised, which shows that the means are mellow.

Since childhood, I have been by the old lady's side, and I have been able to catch all kinds of chores by ear and eye, and I have also been in contact with the accounts of the bookkeeper.

The old lady asked Yueyun to come to assist this time, and she had clearly told herself that she had the intention of letting her stay in Biluoxuan for a long time.

That day and moon cloud took the initiative to help him take care of his hair, it seemed that he had seen the old lady's mind and had the intention of being close. But he never asked in person, this will be a chance, and Xiahou Shuang did not hesitate to ask the words in his heart.

"To stay with the eldest lady, the slave is willing. Yueyun replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Yueyun followed the old lady day and night, not to mention the importance of the old lady to the eldest lady recently, just to say that the spring cicada was beaten by the lady that day, and Xiahou Shuang did not hesitate to offend the lady for the spring cicada, and he felt that he would not be sent there with such a loving master.

In terms of identity, Xiahou Shuang, as the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, will marry in the future and be worthy of the descendants of the royal family, and as the personal maid of the young lady, why worry about not having a good future.

Yueyun thought clearly, and when she saw Xiahou Shuang's question, she agreed without hesitation.

After Xiahou Shuang informed the old lady, Yueyun stayed in Biluoxuan, which is a later story.

In the next few days, Xiahou Shuang's affairs became more and more convenient, and the stewards everywhere seemed to be conscientious.

On this day, Chunya came back from outside, and as soon as she saw Xiahou Shuang, she reported angrily: "Miss, the maids and wives outside are chewing their tongues, saying that we are deducting the kitchen expenses of each room. ”

When Xiahou Shuang heard this, she couldn't help but ask with a solemn expression: "Why do you say this? ”

Chunya said: "The few times I went out, I would meet some maids and women getting together and muttering, and when they saw me, they either stopped talking, or after saying hello, they waited for me to leave and discussed." ”

"This is the case again today, so I pretended to leave, and secretly came back and heard them say that the masters in the courtyard have been cooking according to their usual routine in the past few days, and sometimes the big kitchen is not prepared. The slave and maid were angry when they heard this, and rushed out to reason with them, and as soon as they saw that it was a slave and maid, they flatly denied what they had just said. ”

Chun Yaben was articulate, and his words made the cause and effect clear, and Xiahou Shuang pondered for a moment after hearing it and ordered: "Go and tell a clever word, I have something to explain." ”

Qiaoyu, who was in the small kitchen, heard the young lady say that she did not dare to slack off, and entered Xiahou Shuang's boudoir, Qiaoyu asked: "Miss, what are the instructions for calling slaves?"

"I want you to do something for me. Xiahou Shuang said slowly.

"Miss, please command. Qiaoyu bowed her head in response.

"These days you go to the kitchen and help me keep an eye on it, and figure out why the dishes that are supposed to be in the rooms are not prepared. Xiahou Shuang commanded.

It's the most appropriate thing to assign Qiaoyu to, her mother is a cook in the big kitchen, Qiaoyu goes to the kitchen and others will think that she is looking for her mother, even if she runs diligently, she can barely say the past. If someone is really making trouble, they can't find out for the time being.

After Qiaoyu was ordered to retreat, he went to the big kitchen to help his mother for several days. The kitchen people praised Qiaoyu for his filial piety, but some people questioned why they didn't wait by the young lady's side but ran to the kitchen to join in the fun.

A few days later, the matter was probably clear, and Qiaoyu went back to restore Xiahou Shuang's life.

"In this way, it is not the kitchen man who did it, it is the problem of the purchasing office. After listening to the report of Qiaoyu, Xiahou Shuang pondered and figured out the source of the matter.

"Miss, do you want me to call the stewards of the purchasing office and ask them? After hearing this, Chunya was eager to try.

"Since you dare to do this under my nose, it means that you have no fear, and calling them here now will only pull each other's skins, and we will deal with them together after we find out their details. Xiahou Shuang knew in her heart that the old lady took away the right to manage the Lin family that day, and handed it over to herself in a blink of an eye, what did the Lin family secretly want to be angry about.

So many days seem to be calm, but in fact, the wind and rain are surging. There must be someone behind this matter who is secretly instructed, maybe it is Lin's masterpiece. But if he didn't find out the details, he would only startle the snake, and Xiahou Shuang didn't think about countermeasures for the time being.
