Since taking over as the housekeeper, Daiyu has often invited Qingyun to be with her, and Mrs. Xu and others have assisted her. Qingyun has learned a lot.After dealing with the two wives, Daiyu suddenly felt that in the past few years after her mother passed away, there were many omissions in the house without a mistress, so she decided to rectify it.
Holding the roster of servants in the mansion, Daiyu thought for a long time and said to her: "There are only three serious masters in our family, but there are one or two hundred servants. Let alone Daddy's side, it is you and my courtyard." There are no more than a dozen maids, big and small, and if you count the errands everywhere, you don’t need that many people. There are too many people, and there are overlaps in the assignments, but it is easy to cause chaos, so it’s better to lay off some people.”
"How to cut it? What name is it used?" Qingyun asked, you must know that everyone always only buys people and does not sell people, and only when the family business is in decline. If any family wants to send people out, they will definitely find some Nice name.What's more, Daiyu is the housekeeper at the beginning, and she is still young, so she must pay more attention not to lose any harsh reputation.
Daiyu curled her hair with her fingers and said, "Next month will be my grandmother's birthday. I just want to let a group of people go out with this kind of kindness. I don't want to be worth money. I just return the body deed and let them go. How many times can I rely on it?" For those who are decent and domineering in their lives, lazy and drinkers, they are allowed to go out to be honored and raised, and the monthly silver and rice are paid, but they are not allowed to continue to work. Sister thinks this is appropriate?"
"My sister is very thoughtful, you might as well ask Uncle Fu again, Xu Yifu is also lazy and slippery, just take this opportunity to let them out together." Qingyun has something to say, but I believe Yi Daiyu Wisdom will understand.
"Sister means..." Daiyu's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately understood.After all, she is the daughter of an official family, and she has experienced it through her ears and eyes since she was a child. She knows that struggles in the officialdom often bring disaster to the inner house, and her mother has dealt with such things when she was alive.At that time, she also curiously asked what was wrong with those people, and her mother was concerned that she was still young, so she only said that their hands and feet were not clean.
Then Daiyu ordered someone to send a message to Uncle Fu, and Uncle Fu reported it to Lin Ruhai.
"Then add those two people from before." Lin Ruhai originally wanted to find a chance to deal with it by himself, but unexpectedly, his daughter mentioned it first, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion that her daughter has grown up.
When Jia Min left a few years ago, he was unable to send his daughter to the Jia family due to internal and external troubles.Now that I have picked it up, I need to plan for my daughter's future.Anyone who sits on the job of patrolling the salt censor can't help himself in everything. After thinking about it for a while, he wrote a secret letter and went to Beijing to explain Yangzhou's recent trends one by one. Just waiting for His Majesty's approval.On the other hand, there is no mistress in the family, and Daiyu has no mentors, so she may be criticized by others when she grows up.At the same time, he also sent a letter of divorce to his old friend in Beijing, asking him to help invite two foster nuns who had withdrawn from the palace.
Daiyu in the inner house received the list from Uncle Fu, discussed it with Qingyun again, and ordered Aunt Xu to gather all the servants the next day, and deal with it immediately.At first hearing that the mansion was going to let people out, all the servants kowtowed in panic to express their loyalty and refused to leave. After Mrs. Xu was in full swing, they read the list of releases and stated that they would not redeem their lives, but they could save everyone's money. The body was taken away, and although everyone was still reluctant, they stopped making trouble.
Qingyun knew the roster, and also knew the names of the two people sent by Uncle Fu. He saw that the two people were very flustered, but they never did anything out of the ordinary.
Later, I read a few more people, all of whom were old mothers who went out to support them.These few people obviously wanted to make trouble, but since they said it was an honorary support, and they didn't have to do anything, it was a kindness from the master, how could they make a fuss?Best to have to go separately.
Aunt Xu saw that Lin Daiyu had a plan in mind, and she used both kindness and power. Although her methods were immature, they were already good, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.After everyone dispersed, he held a few booklets and said: "Girl, this is the booklet for the warehouse. Now that the girl takes over the housekeeping, it is customary to count the warehouse."
"It's just right, I'm just about to find some high-quality fine gauze to make clothes." Daiyu rolled up Qingyun: "Sister, go and have a look too, choose two that you like, the acacia in your room is very handy, let me know." She will make you two sets of summer clothes to wear."
"I'm interested in looking at the treasures in the warehouse, so I don't need clothes. I made four sets when I first entered the summer residence. I don't go out to see customers on weekdays. If I make too much, I put it for nothing, and I won't be able to wear it next year. "Qingyun really has no shortage of clothes.Although she was penniless when she arrived at Zhang's house, Mrs. Zhang ordered two sets to be made in a hurry. When she came to Lin's house, there were four sets per season, and a complete set of jewelry. Now the clothes have been filled with two or three big boxes.
"The ones made by those people are not as fine as our own. I got a new design, and it will look good when embroidered on clothes. My sister made a set of black bamboo, and I made a bluegrass one." Daiyu has never done it in a sewing room. The clothes are all made by the maids with the material, and she is also very particular about the clothes, often coloring and drawing pictures by herself, her taste is elegant, and she also enjoys it.
Seeing that she was so interested, Qingyun smiled and said: "Since that's the case, I'll be tired of you, I just wait for the new clothes to wear."
The two of them went to the warehouse while they were talking. The Lin family's warehouse was huge, and the whole yard was full of things.The warehouse is divided into categories, and the room where silk and satin is placed first is filled with all kinds of materials, which is enough to open a silk and satin shop.
"Girls, there are gauzes on the shelves here. The ones in front are new this year, and they are all high-quality spun yarns with many colors. They are suitable for summer clothes." Mrs. Xu said.
Qingyun chose light green for pajamas, blue and pure white for jackets and gauze skirts, Daiyu chose lavender and pure white.In addition, Daiyu picked two more plain cocoon silks, and Qingyun could not refuse, so she asked the servant girl to send them to her room.
After choosing the material, he read the brochure and checked the number in the warehouse. Qingyun went through them one by one and recognized a lot of silk and satin.She has never touched these things before. Aunt Xu mentioned inventory inventory this time. Firstly, it is a necessary process for housekeepers.
"It's rare to come here, let's take a look at other rooms." Although Daiyu was a little tired, she still suggested to go to another room to have a look.
"Alright." Qingyun accepted her kindness.Qingyun knew very well that even though she was older than Daiyu and had a more mature mental age, she was still inferior in many ways.What she lacks is the nurturing and nurturing of the daughter of the aristocratic family since she was a child. She doesn't know many common sense things. Fortunately, it is the time of filial piety, so she doesn't have to go out to meet guests, and she still has enough time to learn.
A few days later, Lin Ruhai received the report from the residence, and Zhang Ming really won, and he was No. 30 in the top five.Even though there are others above him, there are very few people as young as him, so one can imagine how high-spirited he is.Lin Ruhai informed Qingyun and Daiyu, and the two immediately went over the gift list they had drawn up earlier, and after the preparations were complete, Uncle Fu sent someone to Jinling.
The father and daughter of the Lin family have a deep relationship, and their daily relationship is not as strict as other families. Every two or three days, the father and daughter will eat together, and Lin Ruhai also takes this time to test their poetry and books.At dinner that day, Qingyun was sensitive to Lin Ruhai's bad mood, and he understood that when he received the news from the mansion, he learned about Zhang Ming's promotion.
"Does Daddy have any troubles?" Daiyu is the most sensitive, and she is also her own father. Ever since she was frightened earlier, she has been very concerned about Lin Ruhai's health, and she has to ask about it once or twice a day.
Seeing the two of them looking at him, Lin Ruhai was full of doubts and inquiring eyes. After thinking for a while, Lin Ruhai told the truth: "Before I went to ask the emperor, I said that I was out of energy, and hoped to be transferred back to any idle position in Beijing."
"What does the Holy Majesty say?" Daiyu also became nervous. She knew from a young age that her father's official duties were not only exhausting, but also dangerous. If possible, she would naturally let her father remove this hot potato.
Lin Ruhai sighed softly: "The Holy Majesty let me serve for another year."
After all, Yanzheng is different from others. Lin Ruhai has been re-elected for many years, and he knows the way of it very well, so he must be unable to support it suddenly.What's more, now that all parties are about to move around, it is very difficult for the Holy Majesty to find a suitable person who is trustworthy and can take on this important task.
Qingyun also expected that it would not be easy for Lin Ruhai to resign, so he just delayed for another year...
Daiyu will be ten years old next year, which is also the year when Lin Ruhai passed away in the original book. Even if she recuperates her body, who knows if there will be other changes?Moreover, the stories in the original book are mostly superficial. Who can say clearly whether Lin Ruhai died of illness or other reasons?
Holding the roster of servants in the mansion, Daiyu thought for a long time and said to her: "There are only three serious masters in our family, but there are one or two hundred servants.
