Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 13: Competition for a Job (1)
Afternoon.
Mrs. Li's maid Chunyu came to Yingyue Residence with five people, four girls and one boy. Two old maids and three young people handed them over to Yun Qianyou and then turned around and left the courtyard.
Although the five people were standing lazily, they were looking at the woman in front of them nervously. Their minds were still full of the novelty of hearing about Nanny Li being beaten yesterday. That was the wet nurse of the lady of the house.
They were chosen by Madam Liu and sent to Yingyue Residence. They all understood what the Madam wanted them to do.
The new master of this small courtyard had just arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion. He had no background or support, but he caused so much trouble and made the lady and the eldest daughter so angry that they smashed several sets of teacups. He also beat Nanny Li with twenty boards in public. The servants had been working more cautiously in the past two days. They really didn't want to be chosen to come here.
But since they were chosen, they had to come, so now they all looked bitter and resentful.
The woman in white looked at the five people's bitter and depressed expressions and couldn't help but smile in her heart.
The Prime Minister’s wife has a good plan.
There are five spies sent here to watch her every move so as to keep her firmly under their control. So let's have some fun with them.
"My dear sisters, I am new here and I don't know the rules of this mansion. But since you have been sent to Yingyue Residence by Madam, I have also arranged my own staff. What tasks you will do depends on your abilities. It would be best if everyone could give full play to their talents. Don't you agree?"
Yun Qianyou spoke softly with a melodious tone.
Two maids, two maids who were slightly older than her, and a servant among the five people looked at each other after hearing Yun Qianyou's words. They felt that what he said was right, but also felt that they didn't understand something.
"If you want to work at Yingyue Residence, you must first know what matters Yingyue Residence has and what you need to do. Is this correct?"
Yun Qianyou continued in a persuasive manner.
"Yes, if there is anything you need us to do here, just arrange it directly, and I will definitely be able to do it well."
The oldest nanny spoke first.
"Yes, yes. We are all old people in the mansion. We can do any job."
Another maid also expressed her opinion.
The two young maids looked at each other, and the older one said, "The three of us are all family-born, and we have all become second-class maids and servants in the ladies' rooms. You can use us with confidence, and we can do anything."
Yun Qianyou maintained a proper smile, called over Mother Chu and Qiao Nan, asked them to stand among the five people, and continued.
"Mother Chu and Qiao Nan are also my servants. Now that I have come to a new place, I have to rearrange the tasks for the people around me. I must treat everyone equally and give everyone the same opportunities to compete fairly for the tasks in this yard. I want to prevent people from saying that I favor the people I brought with me and don't let you serve me closely. Tell me, am I right?"
"Good! Good!"
"The Second Miss is very thoughtful."
Several people expressed their surprise.
On their way here, they were worried that Yun Qianyou would not give them the opportunity to serve him closely. How could they get useful information and report it to their masters?
"Okay. Since everyone agrees, I will announce what positions are available in this yard and what you need to do."
Everyone immediately perked up, pricked up their ears and listened carefully, changing from the laziness when they first arrived.
"I am the only master in Yingyue Residence, and there are not many positions that require service. There are only five if you count them."
Everyone looked at each other. There were seven people standing here. What did the second lady mean when she said there were only five positions? Did anyone have no work to do?
A maid asked boldly.
"Second Miss, there are seven of us, but what does it mean that there are only five positions?"
"Just what you think. There are two people who have no work to do here. You can choose to leave here, or you can choose to stay in the servants' room every day, but you can't come in and out as you please, and don't disturb other people's work. But you definitely can't get paid if you don't work. This is what should be done, everyone agrees, right?"
right!
is it?
Is it or is it not?
All five of them thought it was right, but they also felt something was wrong.
Can they still choose to go back now?
Several people looked at each other.
"Yingyueju needs a cook, a personal maid, someone to clean the courtyard, water the flowers and grow vegetables, someone to clean the guest rooms, and someone to fetch water and chop firewood."
Yun Qianyou continued speaking in his calm voice.
"I can cook. My wife's cooking is the best."
"I can comb hair and dress up the second young lady beautifully."
"I understand the rules of the mansion and can always remind the second young lady of some etiquette matters."
“I can cook, too.”
"I can also do hair and iron clothes, and take care of the lady's life."
The five newcomers quickly expressed their abilities and tried hard to get the two jobs that looked the most respectable.
"Okay, I know everyone's strengths. Let me tell you the specific requirements for each position. Everyone, listen carefully. If you think you are qualified, just step forward and stand up."
Yun Qianyou cleared his throat, pulled his cloak closer, and looked at the five people in the yard with a smile on his face.
"The first one is the cook. The specific requirement is that there are several dishes that I like to eat the most, and I have to make at least one of them every day, and change them every ten days. The ten dishes are: Dragon and Phoenix Reflecting in the Fairy Pond - Buddha Jumps Over the Wall; Red Thread of Matchmaker Ties Deep Love - Braised Sea Cucumber; Flying Together on Magpie Bridge - Golden Money Chicken; Celebrating the Eternal Love - Sweet and Sour Tuna; A Hundred Years of Happy Marriage - Jade Belt - Mandarin Duck Shell; Colorful Jade Pillow - Assorted Vegetable Stew; Singing Together and Flying Together - Dragon and Phoenix Platter; Couples Holding Hands on Qixi Festival - Fish Ball Soup. In addition, there are two desserts, Lotus Seed Dew with Flowers in Full Bloom, and Fruit Plate for Family Happiness."
Yun Qianyou said ten very nice dish names in one breath, which stunned the five people standing in the yard and made the few people lying on the roof of the next room almost scream out.
"Hey, hey, hey! Are those the names of dishes she just said? Are they poems? Are there such nice-sounding names for dishes? Who can make them? Can she make them?"
Sheng Xiaoge's peach blossom eyes emanated a bright and dazzling light, as if he was looking at a mountain of gold standing in the yard next to him, so bright that he could not open his eyes.
The courtyard of Yingyue Residence was completely silent.
Just as people were still savoring the beauty of the dish or the poem, an old woman stepped forward and stood out.
The five loyal and outstanding people carefully selected by Nanny Liu looked at each other in bewilderment. Mother Chu could cook these ten dishes?
They have been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, and they have never heard of their masters eating these dishes!
"Okay! Madam Chu feels that she is qualified for the position of a cook, so she will stay. Please stand over here."
"The next one is my personal maid. The basic requirements of this position are that you know how to arrange my clothes, comb my hair, and help me with the chores in the house."
Yun Qianyou slowed down his speech, looked at the two maids in the yard who were about to raise their feet, and continued.
"The most important thing is that I am weak and I have just arrived in Kyoto. It is inevitable that I will be bullied. My personal maid needs to know some martial arts to protect me."
Yun Qianyou saw the two raised feet and then slowly retracted them, and couldn't help sneering in his heart.
