Datang: Li Er, are you teaching me how to do things?

Chapter 48 Ai Lian said

As far as Fang Yiyu was concerned, she had never bargained for the price, and she always paid as much as others said.

And she actually seldom buys anything, and the housekeeper is responsible for purchasing everything in the house.

The examiner was also her mother, Lu Shi, and she would not take care of these matters.

Another point is that even if she wants to go shopping, the maids pay, so she has no concept of more money and less money.

Li Yun glanced at Fang Yiyu, and then said: "Your mother should be responsible for the expenses of Liang Guogong's mansion. Miss Fang will also marry in the future. If Miss Fang doesn't understand these things, it won't be easy to be deceived by servants."

He paused, and then said: "If the family is big and the business is big, then the loss will be more, because the expenditure will be more."

"If it's a small business, that's just as important because you can't afford to lose."

"In addition, no matter what the situation is, your husband has to make contributions outside. You can't bother him with these family trivial matters, or won't you let him worry about such things after get off work?"

Fang Yiyu looked at Li Yun infatuatedly, her eyes were full of sweetness.

He knew my situation, so he hinted to me that if I enter the palace, I don't need to pay attention to such trifles.

Anyway, Wei Wanyu is the main concubine, so these matters are handled by Wei Wanyu.

The maids who followed were surprised again, they thought the butler had left and came to this courtyard.

There are rockery pavilions, lotus and green trees here, isn't it time for romance?

But he didn't expect that Li Yun didn't act like this at all, but was reasoning with Fang Yiyu.

But this principle seems to be very correct, this silly lady Fang Yiyu really needs to learn how to housekeeper.

They observed Fang Yiyu secretly, and found that Fang Yiyu was staring at Li Yun infatuatedly.

He couldn't help being shocked, and immediately became vigilant.

It turns out that Li Yun's thoughts are so deep, and he wants to use this method to make Fang Yiyu worship him.

Seeing Fang Yiyu's stupid look, Li Yun rolled his eyes speechlessly.

At this moment, a maid came from the front, holding a broom in her hand, this is the maid of this mansion.

Li Yun stepped forward and saluted, "Girl, can I spare you a little time?"

The maid's complexion changed slightly, and she hurriedly replied, "Sir, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"That's right, how many hours a day does the girl work in this mansion?"

"The little girl eats and lives in the yard all day, as long as there is something to do, there is no time limit."

"How much is the monthly salary?"

"Five hundred dollars a month."

Li Yun smiled slightly, thanked the maid, and then said to Fang Yiyu: "Did you hear that, the maid's salary for a month is only the price of a bottle of perfume."

Fang Yiyu continued: "Isn't that your perfume?"

"I'm not going to say this, what I mean is that the wages of these maids are very low, so for rich people, managing money well can do a lot of things. It's like if I buy this mansion, I can save two hundred guan, That's 20 yuan."

Li Yun paused for a moment, and then said: "20 yuan can pay [-] maids a month's salary, and if we recruit more maids, will the cleaning be cleaner?"

Fang Yiyu rolled his eyes and left the maid, "Do you think this place is not clean?"

Li Yun paused for a moment, he originally wanted to enlighten this noble lady who only knew poetry, but now it seems that it has no effect.

Fang Yiyu doesn't understand the importance of money at all, telling her these things now is playing the piano against the cow.

The maids behind are all from poor families, so they understand Li Yun's thoughts.

They couldn't help but understand Li Yun for a while.

His Royal Highness originally wanted to teach the young lady some housekeeping knowledge, but unfortunately the young lady didn't listen at all.

But the prince is really rich, hey, it would be great if His Royal Highness could take a fancy to me.

Li Yun saw that Fang Yiyu's children were unteachable, so he didn't feel like mentioning Fang Yiyu. He found a pavilion, walked over, and sat down.

"Your Highness, do you have a poetic interest?"

Next to Ting Xie is a pond full of lotus flowers.

Li Yun immediately thought of "Ai Lian Shuo", but he was so angry with Fang Yiyu just now, he was too lazy to beep with Fang Yiyu, so he rolled his eyes, and then closed his eyes to rest.

Fang Yiyu leaned over, "Does Your Highness have any good poems?"

Li Yun rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I don't have any good poems, but there is a Fu, you should listen to it."

"Yes, yes."

"Okay, you can find a maid now to clean the yard, you can't ask someone to help, clean everything up, and I will tell you my new Fu."

Fang Yiyu was overjoyed, turned her head and looked around, and felt that the yard was not very big, she should be able to clean it up soon, so she borrowed a broom and started to sweep it.

Not long after, the housekeeper came back, he bargained with Li Yun again, and finally resold it at a price of [-] guan.

Li Yun paid the money on the spot, and then sent someone to follow the housekeeper to Jingzhao Mansion for notarization.

He himself stayed to do some aftermath work.

It was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and after three hours of sweeping, the yard was cleaned. Fang Yiyu dragged his exhausted body, and came to Li Yun with a face full of excitement.

"Your Highness, I have finished cleaning."

"Those maids have to clean every day. Now you know that it is not easy to make money, right?"

Fang Yiyu nodded, "I know, I know, Your Highness, where is your new fu?"

Li Yun was speechless, thought for a while, and then said: "I'll read it, you can write it yourself."

"Ailian said, the flowers of land and water plants, the lovely ones..."

The "Ai Lian Shuo" he read is exactly the famous Fu written by Zhou Dunyi in the Song Dynasty. He could memorize this ancient prose when he was in school in his previous life. Of course, some places need to be slightly revised.

"Since Li Tang" should be changed to "Since Yang Sui".

But this sentence will not change the meaning of the original sentence, because the literati in the Sui Dynasty also loved peonies very much.

Fang Yiyu was listening and writing at the same time, and when he heard the words "the silt will not be stained, the clear ripples will not be demon", his eyes lit up.

After Li Yun finished reading, Fang Yiyu looked at "Ai Lian Shuo" obsessively, "It's so well written, Your Highness, how did you write it so well?"

Li Yun chuckled and looked at the lotus in the pond next to him, "Did you see it?"

"I see, the lotus is very beautiful."

"Do you want to write "Ai Lian's Talk" like me? Have you thought about why I can write it but you can't?"

Fang Yiyu paused for a moment, with a puzzled look on his face, "Why?"

"Because I see more. When I see lotus, I think of a gentleman. When you see lotus, you just think it is beautiful. This is the difference between us."

"Then what should I do to become like you?"

Li Yun secretly laughed in his heart, it was useless to reason with Fang Yiyu before, but now he finally found a way.

"You should experience more life, all kinds of life, like I just let you sweep the floor, don't you feel like never before?"

"Yeah, I've never been so tired."
