"Mr. Zhang, hum!" It was the fifth day after Ding's death, and grandmother Wu ran into the plum garden with a group of crying servants, angrily said.
"It wasn't obvious before, but now that A-Ding has gone, she has become more and more rampant. She couldn't help her, so she urged A-Song to deal with A-Ding's dowry. Although they are useless, what kind of people are we? Can we make Is there something about the burial of the living?"
There were about seventy or eighty dowries of the Ding family, and the plum garden was packed to the brim. At this moment, they all knelt on the dirt in the courtyard and cried miserably.
"Mother, mother." Cao Song chased after him, and said nonuo, "The master humiliated the servant to death, not to mention that they didn't take good care of A-Ding and let A-Ding die in childbirth. If they don't teach him a lesson, the reward and punishment will be unclear."
Ah Sheng was having breakfast with his elder brother in the room, and he couldn't help rubbing his forehead when he heard this.Her father's IQ plummeted as soon as he was blown by Zhang's pillow, and it was almost hopeless.Fortunately, there is still a grandmother Wu who is sober and willing to take care of things.
"You're confused! Ading's dystocia was caused by the unfortunate encounter with the locusts of the solar eclipse. He was frightened and gave birth suddenly, and the fetal position was abnormal. This is a natural disaster, and it cannot be reversed by manpower. They are also diligent in serving, how can they easily kill people? "
"So... it's sold?"
"When the funeral attendants from Ding's family arrive and find that there is no one left of A-Ding's dowry, how are you going to explain to Dalang Erlang's uncle?"
Ah Sheng had already dragged his brother to the door at this time, and couldn't help interjecting: "Father, don't pretend to be stupid. In the final analysis, father felt sorry for Mrs. Zhang, so he shared the housekeeping with her. Whoever removes mother, To make room for others."
"Ruyi!" Cao Song's mind was punctured, and he became angry from embarrassment.
Wu's eyes swept away, and he suppressed all the words that his adopted son hadn't said. "Ruyi is in the midst of her mother's funeral, so she has a sensitive mind. You are an adult, don't argue with children."
Ah Sheng blinked, and his voice was soft and waxy: "I have never been angry. It is said that once the emperor and the courtiers, since the mistress of the family has changed, the stewards must also be changed. Mrs. Zhang is the tallest, and she handles things safely, so she should be in charge."
Cao Song was taken aback by Ah Sheng's move, and stood there without saying a word.
Wu Shi seemed to understand something, and chuckled lightly: "You have an idea, tell me what you want to do?"
"Mother's dowry is supposed to be reserved for me and brother. But we don't need so many people. We said before that we want to set up a nursery and maternity clinic, but there is a shortage of people everywhere. Isn't it just right to let them go? Originally in charge of the kitchen The person in charge of the kitchen is still in charge of the needle thread, and they are all familiar with it, but they have changed places."
Since she was going to raise a training team for orphans, the Yuyingtang must be in her own hands. What could be more loyal than the dowries of the Ding family who were almost buried?Their ownership has passed from the Ding family to the Cao family, and it will take two generations for the Cao family to shed the label of outsiders.Now the only thing they can rely on is Ding's children.
Of course, in the process of transferring people from Feitinghou's Mansion to the Yuyingtang, it is inevitable to pass through a sieve. Those who are dead, weak and incompetent, and those who secretly seek refuge with the new owner, those who should be eliminated, and those who should be transferred.Backed by his grandparents, Ah Sheng is very confident in choosing his servants.
Cao Song smacked his lips: "You have a mean mouth, but you are very soft-hearted. You even made plans for the lowly, and took the trouble to pick a good way out."
Not a good way out.
Leaving the Hou Mansion compound and working in an outside industry, even if the treatment is not as good as before, at least you don't have to worry about being made things difficult by Mrs. Zhang or the new mistress in the future, and you don't have to worry about the enemies you make when you gain power.
Grandfather watched the show for a long time in the room where the ice basin was placed, and at this moment he stood up and made a decision: "Since we all agree, let's hand over the contract."
Ding's dowry warehouse needs two keys to open, one is kept by Uncle Qing, and the other was originally held by Ding himself, but now it is in the hands of Cao Song.In full view of everyone, he opened the warehouse door and took out a box of bamboo sticks.These bamboo sticks are the deeds of selling one's life. In addition to the servant's fingerprints, each bamboo stick also has the seals of the Ding family and the Cao family.Now, the private seals of Cao Cao and Cao Sheng are added, which means that these servants will follow the young master when they divide the family in the future.
Cao Teng nodded to Uncle Qing.
Uncle Qing took a step forward and looked majestically at everyone in the courtyard: "If anyone wants to express their feelings to the master, ask for resignation, or decide on their own way, they should stand up first." Get out early.As I said earlier, Ding's dowry is in an awkward position in the mansion now, not many can make their own way, but there are five or six of them.Most of them are young people who are married to servants of the Cao family.In addition, there are a few old people whose descendants are all in the Ding family, so they want to go back to the Ding family.
Cao Teng didn't make it difficult for them, he picked out the bamboo sticks that belonged to them, some of them were put in the roster of the Cao Mansion, and the other part was left to be dealt with when the Ding family came to the funeral.
It was not so easy for the person whose name was read next.So-and-so embezzled public funds when buying ingredients, so-and-so was seriously negligent when in charge, or so-and-so recognized his godson outside to dominate the market... It was not easy for Ding to do things for him when he was there, and now they are together settle accounts.In the blink of an eye, more than 20 were missing.Some were about to be lynched, and more were about to work hard for a few years according to the Cao family's family rules before deciding whether to stay or not.
After two rounds of screening, there were 47 people left.
Among the 47 people, there is a couple who are the usual cooks of Meiyuan. They have "invented" a lot of food under A Sheng's guidance in the past two years, and their status cannot be shaken easily.In addition, eating should not be controlled by others, so Ah Sheng kept the two of them by his side.Their son stayed behind too, doing shopping and running errands for the tiny kitchen.
As a result, a total of 44 people could be assigned to the Yuyingtang.
"Before the mistress's burial, you should go live in the Eastern Suburb Manor. After the first seven days, the mistress's coffin and the place of filial piety will also be moved to the Eastern Suburb Manor. When someone comes from her hometown, she will help the coffin and return home. Her last ride."
The servants in the courtyard cried and thanked their master for his kindness for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and there were also those who were reluctant to part with him, most notably the wet nurse Shi Shi. "Let the servant girl stay and take care of Mr. Xiaolang. Madam will keep these two bloodlines. If there are any problems, the maidservant will have no face to see Madam after she dies!"
Most of Ding's loyal servants have similar thoughts, for fear that the twins will not have enough people around them, so they will be murdered.But Ah Sheng firmly sent them away.
Ah Sheng was left with Yan Wen, Luo Chi and Zeng Shi, while Cao Cao was surrounded by two male servants, a nursing home and nurse Li Shi.Ding's team has completely withdrawn from the Hou Mansion, and all places except Cao Teng's and Wu's yards will be given up to Zhang's newcomers.
"You use retreat as advance well," Cao Teng said.
He has fought in the court for more than 50 years, and there is nothing he can't understand.Ah Sheng was waiting for his new wife to come in.After entering the door, whether the new wife will fight for power with Zhang's people, or with Ding's people left behind, the difference is huge.She and Zhang fight, the twins can survive in the cracks.
Ah Sheng smiled shyly: "I'm just playing tricks. The next thing is the real business."
Cao Teng was omniscient: "Say it."
"Do brother and I need to carry the coffin back to our hometown?"
Cao Teng shook his head: "A three-year-old child cannot live without his father. Ah Song is still an official in the court, so you don't have to go back to your hometown to keep your filial piety."
Little Cao Cao had been given a lot of knowledge about keeping filial piety in the past few days, so he seized the opportunity to say, "Ah Sheng and I can also keep filial piety for our mother in Luoyang."
Ah Sheng nodded frantically: "Brother, I mean the same thing."
Cao Teng showed a meaningful smile: "You don't want to go to the Eastern Suburb Manor to observe filial piety, do you?"
"That's exactly how it is." Ah Sheng said generously, "Since we have done it, we must do our best. I want to see the establishment of the Yoying Hall and the Gynecology Hall with my own eyes."
Before Cao Teng could answer, Wu agreed. "The family sent fifty guardians to guard the eastern suburbs manor, and the forty or so people inside, you can train them yourself."
Grandma really dared.
But if Grandma dared to let it go, Ah Sheng dared to accept it. "OK!"
Cao Teng lost his temper by these two strong and unreasonable women, so he had to take four more body deeds from the shelf and give them to A Sheng. "These four belong to Ruyi. Don't rob Geely from your younger brother. Grandpa will make up for you later."
The name written on the top one is "Ding Zhen".
Ah Sheng clearly remembered that Ding Zhen was a contract worker, but here he signed a dead contract.She understood immediately.These four maidservants were all people who stayed in the delivery room on the day of Ding's death. They witnessed her treatment of postpartum hemorrhage with their own eyes, so they were directly controlled by their grandfather and signed a death contract.
There were more than four people in the delivery room that day, but there were only four left in her hands.
It was probably screened out.
Ah Sheng pursed her lips, this era of disregarding human life made her physically uncomfortable, but her grandfather was protecting herself, and she couldn't say any rebuttal words.With mixed feelings, she could only bow down to Cao Teng with tears in her eyes: "It's because I didn't think well enough to make my grandfather worry about me."
Cao Teng waved his hand, and said seriously: "Two days later, it will be A-Ding's first seven days. At that time, his spirit will be transferred to a farm in the suburbs. The two of you brothers will go with the coffin. You can't go out for the first month, and wait until the people from your hometown help Ling to leave Luo After the sun is up, you can relax a bit, and you can go back to your home to study during the holidays."
According to the etiquette system, mothers have to observe filial piety for three years, but after all the twins are too young, and Cao Song will be reunited in a year, so it is estimated that they will come back when the new wife comes in.Otherwise, it would make the new lady look bad.
"It wasn't obvious before, but now that A-Ding has gone, she has become more and more rampant. She couldn't help her, so she urged A-Song to deal with A-Ding's dowry. Although they are useless, what kind of people are we? Can we make Is there something about the burial of the living?"
