Chapter 593 The days are still long
Wu took her son Zhang Xie back to her yard.
Zhang Xie still feels uncomfortable.
"Mother, did you just let that kid be the eldest son? Isn't the young man a son? Why did the father treat his son like that? The son doesn't even want to go to the Imperial College anymore. The way they look at him makes him uncomfortable!"
Wu's heart is also blocked. Nothing is pleasing to the eye.
Pulling Zhang Xie to sit next to him, "My son, with your mother and your sister here, don't worry. The days are still long."
Zhang Jieyi leaned into Wu's arms, "Mother, you must help your son. The son is the eldest son of the big house."
Ms. Wu comforted him, and comforted herself, "Yes, my son is the eldest son of the big family, my son is. No one can take it away!"
On the other side, Mama Ma and An Momo were present, and they quickly selected a group of people.
The concubine's daughter of the Duke of the country, with a foster mother, two first-class maids, two second-class maids, four third-class maids, two rough envoys, two rough envoys, and two gatekeepers.
The same is true for the first son.
But on Huo Nian's side, except for Shihua and Amber, the rest are accompanied by servants and servants.
Huo Xi didn't even want to save money for the Duke's mansion, and there were a lot of people everywhere. There are small kitchens in both courtyards, and two more servants are hired to cook.
Get all these people's personal deeds.
There are quite a few people, and the yard will be tidied up soon.
Let a few girls go to the warehouse to pick up the lack of furniture and needed decorations, and Huo Xi didn't let them be polite, take what should be received, what should be taken, and everything that has been picked up.
According to the accounting office, they received the monthly silver and allowances of the two yards, as well as the clothes, jewelry, etc. of the master and servants, and there was not a single piece left.
and others reported to Mrs. Tai, who rubbed her forehead with a headache.
Waved: "If she wants to take it, just give it to her."
Hearing that two jade carvings and four red sandalwood screens in the warehouse were also taken away, Mrs. Tai only waved her hand.
Soon the two courtyards that were empty were completely renewed and revived.
"Girl, do you want to choose one or two of the family members of those servants and send them to our yard to serve?"
Nurse Ma thinks the kitchen is the easiest place to be tampered with, and it’s most reassuring to hold their family members in their hands.
Huo Xi nodded: "Send a message to my mother and ask her to pick a few cooks from the man's teeth, and replace the two cooks in the family into the house. Then pick one from each of the four servants' homes and put them in our company." Li and Nian'er's Zhuangzi. Let uncle arrange them."
"Yes. Miss, this is handled well." Mama Ma responded and went down to make arrangements.
After a while, Huo Nian followed Zhang Xuan around the mansion and returned to Huo Xi's courtyard. After sitting down, he poured two large cups of tea.
Narrated to Huo Xi: "Sister, this mansion is so big, my feet hurt from walking. There are still several places I haven't visited yet."
Huo Xi smiled: "Qijin's yard takes up almost a street, can it be big?"
"I have to go a few more times so I don't get lost."
Huo Nian sighed, and began to miss his own courtyard and Qionghua Lane. Everything here was unfamiliar to him.
looked disappointed, "There are so many brothers and sisters in this family, I don't remember many of them, and I don't know which room they belong to."
"It's okay, my sister didn't remember it either. After a few more contacts, I will remember it."
"That's too many people."
How come there are so many brothers and sisters? Can Mrs. Tai remember all her grandchildren?
"Look at Emperor Taizu, who gave birth to twenty-six sons, and twenty-four survived. It doesn't look like many, but there are only one hundred and twenty-eight grandsons! If the palace organizes a family banquet, what do you say? Can Emperor Taizu recognize these grandsons?"
Huo Nian opened his mouth wide, "One hundred and twenty-eight?"
Huo Xi nodded with a smile: "One hundred and twenty-eight are male grandchildren, plus granddaughters, how many would there be? Organize family banquets, not to mention grandchildren, but sons, plus the princess consort, daughter-in-law, too. Ancestors may not even recognize who is who."
Huo Nian was stunned for a while, and then laughed.
so far so good. There are only three rooms in the British government, which is not too many people. If there were more, he would be in a mess.
"Ma'am, Missy didn't choose anyone we arranged."
The next person went to sue Wu.
Wu gritted her teeth, "Didn't pick any?" So cautious?
"I picked a lot, but they were all served in the outer courtyard. None of the people we arranged were selected."
"Where are the two kitchens? She doesn't want any of the cooks?"
Since I chose a courtyard with a small kitchen, of course I have to start the fire myself. It is impossible not to even have a cook. Could it be that the cooks were brought in from outside the house?
"I don't want a few cooks. I only want four servants. I'm afraid the cooks will really bring them in from outside."
"Little bitch!"
This time, he brought so many people into the mansion from outside, and the Duke didn't say anything.
The servants of the Nizuzi family, the rules can be better with the servants of the Duke's Mansion? I am not afraid of making mistakes and making outsiders laugh.
"Mrs. Tai confiscated their identity cards?"
"No. The eldest lady said that she should keep the deed of her person. If the Duke's mansion can't pay the servant's monthly silver, then she can pay for it herself."
"Little bastard! I don't know how much money there is. Dozens of servants need a lot of monthly money and monthly bills. The first class is two taels a month, and the nurturing mother is five taels. A lot of monthly money is paid in a month. There are also many cases." I am not afraid of dying of poverty.
The servant who came to sue was also thinking about the worth of the eldest lady.
I heard that the young lady's adoptive parents are in business. I'm afraid they brought a lot of money into the mansion.
"Mrs. Tai doesn't say anything, so we have nothing to say. The days are still long. There are many branches and branches in this mansion, and there are marriages in the world. This is built on top of that, and the water is deep. How can a mud leg raised outside know."
"Yes, what Madam said is very true. Let's not worry, it's only the first day of entering the mansion. The third young master of our family is no match for the young master raised outside."
The two little **** thought they had climbed on a branch, but they didn't know that the branch might also be a dead branch, and it was not stable.
It's just that Mrs. Wu underestimated the capabilities of Madam Ma and Anma.
After picking out many servants from the mansion, the two nuns immediately began to register them.
Inquire about wealth information, family members, relationship with everyone in the house, where you have worked, what skills you have, and whether you have made mistakes, ask them one by one, and register them one by one.
Afraid of leaking, let A talk about B and C, B say C and D, D say A and B... and so on.
They are also required to sit together. If one person makes a mistake, all of them will not use it, and the whole family will not use it.
Frightened all the servants.
I no longer dare to rely on my status as an old man in the mansion to despise the two new masters.
Even the servants brought by the eldest lady and the fifth young master did not dare to underestimate them.
The two nuns repeatedly beat and beat, warned them sharply, and another rewarded a month's monthly money, big sticks and sweet dates, and the servants picked into the two yards immediately recognized the eldest lady and the fifth young master as masters. up.
I went to another place to attend a wedding these two days. It's even later.
