Of course, promotion or something is another story.

A few days later, Mu Yan still had to continue to circle in his social circle, and Dai Ke also followed the pre-arranged arrangement. After breakfast, she picked out the servants brought by Ren Yazi in the side hall.

"These are all newcomers who just arrived yesterday, and they are absolutely innocent. If they are inexperienced and dissatisfied, Fourth Mistress, I have no masters before," Ren Yazi rubbed his hands and smiled obsequiously.

"Is there anyone who can cook?" Dai Ke scanned around, there were no. 30 people of all ages, and they were cleaned up very neatly. It seems that the matchmaker did not spend less time preparing before bringing them here.

"Yes, of course!" Ren Yazi turned around and ordered three or four people to come out, "You, you, and you, hurry up and show Fourth Grandma!"

"It's fine if you're over fifty," Dai Ke frowned when she saw that Ren Yazi pointed out an old woman with all white hair. At this age, it's impossible to stand on the stove for half an hour. is it on?

"The one on the left wearing a floral jacket, yes, is talking about you," Dai Ke nodded, "What kind of dishes do you know?"

"My servant is best at all kinds of home-cooked dishes, and I can also make dim sum," the woman whose name was called lit up, and quickly fell to her knees.

"Fourth grandma, her husband's family runs a restaurant, and their craftsmanship is definitely not bad." Seeing that Deke seemed a little interested, Ren Yazi added, "If it wasn't for her husband getting involved in gambling and ruining his fortune, she wouldn't have died. As for selling yourself as a slave in order to support a large family."

"Sounds pretty pitiful," Deke touched her chin, as if thinking.

"Fourth grandma, this slave can do everything, I can cook and wash your clothes for you, and I'm also very strong, if you have any foul words, feel free to leave them to me, please accept me!"

"Forget it," Dai Ke carefully looked up and down this charming woman who had just lost her husband, and slowly shook her head, "Retire, I can't let you go here. Great Buddha."

"Fourth grandma?" Don't mention that woman, even her teeth are a little dumbfounded, isn't she pretty good looking, why is she suddenly gone?

"I'm looking for a servant who can serve others, not a servant who can serve others on the bed." Dai Ke sneered, pointing to the little jacket on the woman, "Is this what she looks like in filial piety? She is no longer a man, It's always a matter of pretending, right? It's red, green, and green, and those who don't know it think her family is having a happy event!"

"This... the fourth grandma, the servant, is wronged! It was Mrs. Chen who asked the servant to dress better today!"

Dai Ke didn't bother to bother anymore, so she ignored the woman and turned her gaze back to the others.

Generally speaking, the quality of people brought by Renyazi is quite good.In Dai Ke's original plan, she would add as many people as Aunt Fan took away, or even a few more.The daily expenses of these servants are a large amount of money if they go to the account casually. The monthly expenses of each person are enough for Aunt Fan to have a headache.

However, considering Mu Yan's deeply buried anger towards Aunt Fan, Dai Ke suddenly felt that instead of buying in so many people who don't know their background and leaving Aunt Fan to take advantage of her loopholes, it's better to carefully select a few and cultivate them well.

So in the end, Dai Ke only left six of the 30 NO.[-] people, two strong women with quick hands and feet, two rough envoy maids, and two little girls who had just turned [-] years old.

"I'll leave these two little girls to you," Dai Ke said with a smile to Shumo after dismissing them, "They both look very upright, after two years of teaching, you and Shang Yu will be able to relax a lot. "

"Fourth grandma, you really dislike us," Shumo jokingly looked at the two little girls carefully, "It's true that they are all beauties, but fourth grandma has a better eye."

"You're messing around here again!" Nanny Li had just led the other four newcomers down to make arrangements, when she heard Shumo's words when she came back, she gave Shumo a hard look, "Are you still in the garden? You can do whatever you want No one cares? How many pairs of eyes are watching in this mansion, why don't you hurry up and do your own thing!"

After scolding Shumo, Nanny Li turned her head to talk back to Dai Ke, saying that the craftsmen who ordered yesterday had arrived, and asked her to ask Dai Ke how to clean up the utility rooms in the back.

"Didn't those rooms be used as storerooms? I think Fourth Master also piled up the favors he came and went with in those rooms, and he simply opened up all of them. A bigger storeroom will make it easier to count." And she The dowry brought over couldn't just be piled up in Shumo and the others' houses, and she was worried about putting it in the big warehouse of the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion.

"The servant asked them to fight a few more times?"

"Just do it."

It was just picking out a few servants, and discussing with Nanny Li about the placement of the things in the yard. It seemed that they were not busy, but when Dai Ke came back to her senses, the sun had already risen to the middle of the sky , it looks like it's time for lunch.Now that I have bought a serious stove master, I don't need Dai Ke to do it myself.Here, Dai Ke was waiting to try the newcomer's skills, when the gatekeeper's wife suddenly came to report that it was Aunt Fan's visit.

Why, there is no way to cut off the water and food, so I come to the door in person to find it uncomfortable?

"Auntie Fan, please come in." Everyone is here, so it's not easy to rush back, besides, Dai Ke also wants to see what excuses this Auntie Fan is going to find to embarrass her this time, you know that rats can't make trouble every day.

"Fourth daughter-in-law, you're really lively here," said Aunt Fan, who was wearing a light lotus-colored skirt today, holding a fingernail-sized pearl on the front.There are two jade bracelets on the left wrist, and they bump into each other as they walk, the sound of ding ding is very pleasant.

"What wind brought Auntie to me?"

Dai Ke sat on the table without moving a muscle, and she didn't say to let Aunt Fan take her seat.But Aunt Fan didn't need Dai Ke's permission, she went straight to the chair on the left and sat down, and asked the maid following behind to ask Shumo for tea.

"Fourth grandma, we can't even have a sip of cold water by ourselves. Now Auntie Fan wants to beg for hot tea, what... what can I do!" Before Honglian could speak half of the sentence, Shumo burst into tears He knelt down in the middle of the ground, "It's all slaves who are incompetent, and I am wronged that my aunt doesn't even have to drink hot tea. Please punish the fourth grandma."

Dai Ke also looked at Aunt Fan with an apologetic expression, "Although my maid is a little blunt, she is telling the truth. Auntie, you know that I haven't prepared anything here yet, and fourth master was working on it this morning. His voice came out of the door. Otherwise, if you are not in a hurry, Auntie, ask the maid next to you to go back and fetch a pot of hot water, oh yes, and bring another bag of tea."

Her gaze fell on the teacup in Dai Ke's hand, and Aunt Fan almost couldn't hold back her curse.Sure enough, Mu Yan is not a family who does not enter a family. The ability to tell lies with open eyes is better than the other. As long as you are not blind, you can see that there is only half of the tea in the cup, but Dai Ke can tell that there is not a drop of water. Come on like this.

"It's okay, I don't need this sip of water," Aunt Fan said softly, suppressing her anger secretly, "Besides, I didn't come here today for this glass of water. Hey, fourth daughter-in-law, why do you still let this girl kneel down? It's so cold on the ground, what should I do if I hurt my body? You are so young, you don't know how to love others. Don't care about these girls because they are servants. Without them, how could you have such a comfortable life?"

"Did you hear what Auntie said? Hurry up and get up."

After Shumo moved to stand behind Dai Ke, Aunt Fan continued, "I'm here today for two reasons. You just came in, and you are not familiar with the rules of the mansion. Occasionally, you make a mistake and come back again." It's normal. It's just that I'm an elder anyway, so I can't just watch you do something wrong without reminding me. Otherwise, if you make trouble with the old lady, not only you, but I will also be blamed."

"What does Auntie mean by that?" Dai Ke raised her eyebrows, "Put the hat on my head before I say anything, not to mention Auntie, you are just serving the second master's slave, you can't be regarded as a serious elder. It is the second My wife has come back to life, and if I want to teach the juniors a lesson, I must first clarify the source."

"You!" Even Xue Baochai didn't talk back to her so directly, and Aunt Fan looked at Dai Ke in disbelief, "I said this for your own good, and it seems superfluous for you to be so ungrateful! In that case , you are going to see the old lady with me now. The Marquis just issued an order yesterday that no newcomers are allowed in the mansion. You bought six slaves at noon. I would like to see you and How can the old lady explain it!"

"I'm afraid my aunt made a mistake. These slaves signed the contract of sale of the Lin family, which has nothing to do with the Hou's mansion. My aunt also said that I have a bad memory. I think it's my aunt who has a big memory. Yesterday you Why don't you just remove all the servants in my yard?" Of course, Dai Ke chose to ignore the trivial matter that half of them were handicapped by her and then returned.

"Since you are not from my Hou's mansion, then don't take the account of the Hou's mansion!" I don't know if it's because I was annoyed by the accountant in the morning, or because I know the turmoil between Dai Ke and her. When it was time for a cup of tea, Aunt Fan removed the weak face she had put on for more than 20 years, and her voice was full of sparks, "1000 taels a month, you really dare to open your mouth!"

"It seems that this is the second thing my aunt said?" Dai Ke picked up the 'no water' teacup and moistened her throat. "I believe my aunt has read the list. I don't know which item is wrong? If If my aunt can't find it, then it's my turn to go to the old lady to comment, fourth master is also the grandson of Lord Hou, so how can you explain it to the fourth master and the people around him so severely?"

How could it be possible for Dai Ke to leave a clue to Aunt Fan when she made that list.Although everyone knows well that servants don't spend much money at all, it is never a small sum when it is implemented on paper.

For example, for the clothes of the four seasons, if you have a string of money, you can pull a dozen feet of cloth, and if you have three or five taels, you can barely make a single piece of material; or for daily meals, you spend the wholesale price of dozens of catties of vegetables. What is reported is the retail price; almost any one can be found, and a lot of oil and water can be squeezed out.

For big families like Rongguo Mansion and Zhenyuanhou Mansion, their monthly book expenses are around *[-] taels, a large part of which is consumed in this way.Most of the reasons why Wang Xifeng clings to the power of the Rongguo Mansion and why Aunt Fan has been pretending to be a little white flower for so many years are here.

"I didn't expect the fourth grandma to know a lot at such a young age." No need for Dai Ke to say anything more, Aunt Fan already knows that Dai Ke knows as much about the tricks in the account as she does, "But fourth grandma, you have already said that , including the people you bought today, all of them belong to the Lin family. Although the Zhenyuan Hou’s mansion is not short of money, it’s not easy to bully to the point of raising slaves for other people’s families. This month is fine, and next month’s public It will only be for you and fourth master, don't even think about it!"

"Okay," Dai Ke agreed very readily, "Auntie, as long as you don't forget Yumo and the others, I will naturally take care of the slaves on my side."

Aunt Fan almost thought she heard it wrong, but Dai Ke nodded, and she actually nodded? !

"Is there anything else Auntie can do?" Dai Ke looked at Auntie Fan's restless eyes that did not match her appearance with some amusement.

"Isn't it enough just these two things?" In the end, it was concluded that Dai Ke was just stern, and Aunt Fan's waist became stiff again, and she hummed a few condescending words and let Dai Ke go this time. If Dai Ke doesn't guard the house next time According to the rules of the family, she will not look at her as a newlywed, and she will be punished according to the family rules, and then she will take the maid back to her residence proudly with her buttocks twisted.

"Fourth grandma, who is this?" Shumo was a little confused, how could Dai Ke give in to Aunt Fan so happily, this is completely unreasonable!

"There are so many things these two days, you can chat with her when you have time, I don't have time to chat with her," said the upper lip touched the lower lip, there is no voice recorder in this era, and bad checks are not sent casually.Besides, whether Aunt Fan will be in charge of the accounts next month is another matter.

"Ah?" Perhaps it was because Dai Ke had never been mean-spirited, and Shumo was a little silly. After a wedding, one or two of them changed their temperaments!

Needless to say, Mu Yan, the legendary Tan Hua Lang, who was gentle and elegant, turned out to be a big liar in the end.Now even Dai Ke has been spoiled by him, and the lies are as if they are true, and even she has been deceived.

Forget it, anyway, she, a little servant girl, can't manage the affairs between the master and the master, and the business is more important. "I was delayed by her just now, and the servant almost forgot the business. I will go back to the door tomorrow, and the fourth grandma thinks Do you want to take something back?"

"Go back? Where are you going back?" Dai Ke looked at Shumo innocently, "Rongguo Mansion? The surname of Rongguo Mansion is Jia, not Lin. How can it have anything to do with the word "mother's family?"
