The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

Li Wan said quickly, "Then go back and deal with these matters first, and I'll talk to you tomorrow." Wang Xifeng was so generous that he didn't hide it from her, and she also said it directly.The two maids she married as a dowry had been married long ago. After all, they were not as good as Jia Zhu's maids, and they were not as delicate and well-behaved.

"That's it." Wang Xifeng was about to leave, but she turned her head and asked Li Wan, "My grandma, is there such a thing here, my wife?"

As soon as she asked, Suyun and Biyue laughed, and Li Wan also covered his mouth and laughed backwards.

"What are you laughing at? Could it be that such a thing doesn't happen here?" Wang Xifeng sat down again, and she wanted to know, could it be that there is no such thing as needles and threads here?

Suyun glanced at Ping'er, saw that she was a little ashamed, and said, "Second Mistress, you don't know, we are all thinking about how to do our own things from the best to the best, and whoever goes out at a time I made a slight mistake, and I felt uncomfortable, how could it be..." Who is short of those hundreds of thousands of dollars?

You must know that only the servants of the Jia Mansion with excellent scores can buy lucky bags with their own efforts and excellent results. Every year, more people are added to the mansion and fewer people are subtracted, but the number of lucky bags is fixed. Occasionally, the wife will add extra when she is happy about something. This year, my wife went to Guangdong and Guangxi, so there must be a lot of novelty things to pack back, and the eldest wife passed away. After all, there is a layer of filial piety in the house, and the number of lucky bags will definitely not be increased. , that is, if others buy one, it is only one less!Seeing that it will be the end of the year in less than two months, I am afraid that I will make a mistake on the spot, so everyone should be careful.

Wang Xifeng didn't quite believe it. To be honest, even with today's turmoil, she also felt that the rules and family laws of Jia's house were strict enough. Could it be that Li Wan's master was not around all the time, and no one was watching? Are you okay?

"Suyun, you can just go to the case office and show the second grandma the list of who made mistakes this month." Li Wan thought that his wife had said that her niece, who was always smart and alert, played with boys when she was young. Generally raised up, better than some men’s families, let her get along well with her when she comes back, she is a playmate with arm strength, let her also take on the responsibility of the elder sister-in-law, and see if she is too smart At that time, I was reminded early that everyone is a family of flesh and blood, and everyone is prosperous, so don't stand on the shore and gloat.

Looking at who broke a saucer, how it was broken, how much it was worth, how to dispose of the fragments, and who cares about her, it is all clear, and there is even a record of which wing room was not cleaned under the bed. .There is also a notebook for getting things, which is really recorded every stitch and thread.

"I know you are also clear-eyed. Which person is in charge of what kind of affairs, and which housekeeper and lady lead them, these personnel files must be clear. It's okay, everyone is safe, and if something happens, what happened? Mistakes and omissions are guaranteed to be fully investigated. Especially the ladies in charge will definitely lose their grade points. They usually manage people, but they do less work but receive more monthly money than the little girls. , is to take responsibility. No matter who it is, there is no such thing as dropping money out of thin air. If you want to make money, you have to work hard. If you want to be lazy and play tricks, then we don’t want it.” Li Wan thought about this. It's too long to talk about it, and they have a lot of rules and regulations on rewards and punishments.

"My dear." Wang Xifeng thought that she had done everything perfectly, and even the old lady and relatives praised her, but she didn't expect her aunt to go ahead of her. With such a good foundation, how could she be so smooth?It turned out that she, who was very high-spirited, also put away the trace of arrogance in her heart.

Li Wan sent her out, "The girl in your room should have taken care of it early, otherwise, if it's for your sake, it will ruin your dignity." She added, "In this way You will not be a good housekeeper in the future, as the grandma of the house, the most taboo thing for us is to deal with things unfairly."

"I see." Wang Xifeng heard this, and saw that Li Wan asked her carriage to take her back, and brought her many things.He also thought that if the sister-in-law at home could be half as big as Zhu's sister-in-law, maybe her brother would not be like that. Fortunately, after coming from Siguotang, the brother seemed to be a lot more honest.

All the girls, big and small, who participated in the quarreling and fighting all knelt on the bluestone slab in the main courtyard, with their hands raised up, each of them was trembling, but they dared not put them down.

"Grandma is back."

With this sound, everyone's panting became heavier.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Wang Xifeng traced it with beautiful eyes, but thought that it was good that the second master was not here, otherwise, if he saw such sweaty pictures of handsome beauties, big and small, he would inevitably be a little bit perverted.Bah, what am I thinking, he still has more than two years of filial piety!

Back in the house and sat down on the kang, Ping'er An'er quickly held the stove for her, Wang Xifeng thought that she would not be afraid to wear a small coat at Li Wan's place, and felt a little envious in her heart.

"First bring that little red and musk moon in and show me."

These two were given to her by the old lady, and she developed them without asking, which made her seem a little crazy.

Ning An raised her hands, and whenever she wanted to let go, she was whipped by the housekeeper's wife on her arm with a bamboo stick, and could only watch the two little girls who dared to quarrel with her enter the room ahead of her.

"Greetings to grandma."

Both Xiaohong and Sheyue behaved well, and Wang Xifeng didn't dislike them when he saw their appearance, so he said, "Since you two were sent by the old lady, how can you make trouble?"

When grandma asked, Xiaohong and Sheyue looked at each other, Xiaohong stood up and said, "Going back to grandma, sister Sheyue and I were sent by the old lady, but now we are grandma's little girls. In addition to us, there are four new little girls who are ready to take care of you, grandma. We don’t dare to make mistakes in doing things every day, and we have done everything the sisters ordered. "

She spoke quickly, and Wang Xifeng laughed, "Then why are you arguing?"

"This matter is also our fault. We shouldn't argue with my sister. We did something wrong." She Yue took the initiative to admit his mistake, "We are all willing to beat and punish grandma. But sister Ning'an really did something wrong. Since she was appointed by grandma to take care of us little girls, she has the qualifications to discipline us, but she didn't swallow up our monthly bills! She just wanted to take advantage of grandma's influence to make more money, but she was deeply It will ruin your reputation, grandma."

Xiaohong nodded. The old lady had mandarin ducks and pearls. They were very capable and thoughtful. Later, the old lady gave Qingwen to Miss Lin. Seeing that the second grandmother was pregnant, she was afraid that she would not be enough to take care of her. When two people came over, she fought for it herself.Anyway, I'm afraid she won't be able to get ahead in front of the old lady, she thinks she can't compare with Sister Yuanyang.

The two spoke clearly and understood the reasoning, Wang Xifeng also hated Ning An's way of dealing with others, "You guys go out first."

Ping'er asked Wang Xifeng, "Grandma, your name is Ning'an..."

"No need." Wang Xifeng shook his head and said, "Send all four of them to my father and ask them to watch the house for me."

"What about the other little girls?"

"Let the manager punish you severely, and write this down, so I can see if they will have a long memory in the future." Wang Xifeng said casually, pulling out the ashes from the furnace.

This is still needed, Ping'er agreed, and went out to order not to mention it.

For a while, he came in beaming with joy, and handed Wang Xifeng a letter, "Grandma, this is from Xing'er sent by the second master. He is outside, waiting for your reply from grandma."

The corners of Wang Xifeng's mouth also turned up. He didn't come back, but the letter arrived first, and he quickly opened the letter to read, "Got it, let him eat and wait."

Ning'an didn't expect grandma to see Xiaohong and Sheyue, and she didn't even see her at all, so she asked people to send the four of them as dowry to the carriage.

"These are all your things, put them away carefully, don't say that we took yours." Xiaohong and Musk Moon threw them into the car. As long as this is the case, how much is the monthly money for the little girls to give them?If you can find a lucky bag, there will be more than one year!

She Yue didn't expect Xiao Hong to have such courage before, so she couldn't help but took her hand and asked, "I used to think that you were just like your old lady, but I didn't expect that your tongue is so powerful?"

"That's not as good as my sister, she said every sentence so that she didn't even know how to reply!"

Seeing that the two of them were still talking and joking, Ping'er couldn't help but one of them tapped on his forehead, "Don't talk about lucky bags this year, there's not even a monthly case, you're still laughing."

"Follow elder sister, there is grandma, do you still have to worry about it?" Xiaohong and Sheyue cheered up Ping'er, after all, everyone can see that grandma obviously prefers her.

Xiaohong asked Ping'er, "Sister Ping'er, do sisters Fu'er and Sister Ning'er really want someone?"

"Well, it's true, it's just that they don't want to get married, so they are busy looking for someone to choose." Ping'er said, now all the girls in Jia's mansion are like this, once they arrive, they can think about their own life.There are those who can marry without being slaves, and those who are very willing to stay in Jia's mansion for a lifetime.

"Sister Ping'er, I have a candidate here. My mother told me, why don't you listen?" Xiaohong thought of this, and she and Qingwen got along well, so she just mentioned this. .

Ping'er paused, "Who is it?" The maids are picking candidates, and the men of Jia's mansion are also picking candidates. They are all on errands in Jia's mansion, so who can really convince anyone?Fortunately, Fu'er and Ning'er are not bad looking, and there are a few candidates, adults and relatives will talk first.

Musk Moon reacted as soon as she heard it, "I don't know who it is, it turned out to be him." She also knew this person, but she felt that such a person was not good.

"Sister Ping'er, this person is not good. He once married a wife, but he sold Qingwen in, took the money and ran away. He felt ashamed, so he worked part-time outside, and finally saved some money to see. Qingwen. Unexpectedly, Qingwen asked the old lady to give it to Ms. Lin. The old lady knew about it. Seeing that the siblings were separated, her heart softened for a while. Seeing that he still has some cooking skills, she let go and bought it."

Xiaohong disagreed, "He and Qingwen are the only two left in their family. How can we do it without marrying a wife to carry on the family line? Besides, if he can try his best to sell Qingwen to our house, he may have put his heart into it." Yes. He can still think about Qingwen a little bit, and it won’t be too bad if he thinks about it, besides, he’s afraid that he’s not capable when he enters our Jia’s kitchen?”

"I'm afraid he won't be able to support the wall because of mud!" Musk Moon looked down on such a person.

"A good man should be strong in all directions. If he is poor for a while, it is only for a while. How can you look down on him just because he is poor for a while? I heard from my mother that he voluntarily gave the front man to compare him to him in the kitchen in order to learn knife skills. Brothers who are still young wash their clothes, fetch water and wash their feet, so that they can practice again with the materials they have practiced." Xiaohong said hastily.

Ping'er hurriedly separated the two, they were both eloquent, and after a while they all attracted people, "Okay, okay, let me tell Fuer that it's her business whether she wants it or not, why are you arguing? "He said again, "Oh, no wonder we ate stuffed buns and dumplings for several days in the morning recently."

The two laughed as soon as they heard it, and soon held hands and became friendly again.

Ping'er found a time to tell Fu'er and Ning'er about Qingwen's elder brother, Ning'er was a little moved. She had many relatives in her family, so she was not afraid that he was weak. Take it easy.However, Fu'er disliked him for having no father or mother. If she had a child and didn't even have someone to take care of her, wouldn't that mean she would lose her job?That's not going to work.

The three met and said a few words, and then heard the messenger calling, "The second wife sent someone."

Ping'er hurried into the house and went back to Wang Xifeng. Wang Xifeng was afraid that he had something serious to do, so he hurriedly closed the pen, "Give the letter to Xing'er, let him take care of the master carefully, and don't make him overworked."

"Yes, grandma."

"Call that man in."

Aunt, what's the matter? ?
