Chapter 260 Let’s get something affordable
Pingbeihou Mansion's first banquet, it was so unique, even those who disliked Yu Zhi couldn't fault it, most of the guests had a great time. When leaving, Yu Zhi also sent two pots of flowers. Although they were not expensive flowers, no matter whether they were male guests or female relatives, everyone happily picked out the flowers they liked.
People's impression of Yu Zhi naturally improved. Mrs. Xiaowen, this lady, although she is still straightforward and innocent, she is still very capable. Oh no, not very capable, but very capable, and she has a sweet heart. After all, this is the first time in Beijing to have such a special banquet.
Of course, there are some people who don’t believe it, not to mention that Yu’s family background is not good, even if the girl who was brought up carefully in Beijing can’t handle such a banquet when she first gets married, there must be someone behind her to help her.
However, even if there are people behind the scenes to help out with ideas, it is already remarkable that Mrs. Yu can support this big stall in front of others.
Naturally, there are also those who are careful. They see Yu Zhi giving orders to the servants, even with just one look, they know what to do, and they can see that he is very skillful. What's more, the mother-in-law also said it, but it didn't help.
Send off the guests, continue to perform their duties, and clean up the venue.
Flowers, send them back to the conservatory. Otherwise, if you put them outside overnight, they will all freeze to death. Dishes and tableware, washed and taken back to the warehouse... The servants are very motivated, after all, the young lady said, after cleaning up, they will be rewarded.
After the inspection by the managers of each group, they led the people in their own group to stand in the yard, and waited for everyone to come. Two baskets of copper coins were also brought over, Yu Zhi sat down on the porch, with Cherry and Pomegranate standing beside him.
Yu Zhi spoke first, "Today is our first banquet in the Pingbeihou Mansion, and it was very successful. The third master and I are very satisfied. Everyone has worked hard. Not much else to say, just give out rewards."
Following Yu Zhi's words, the servants in the yard blushed with excitement, and their hands beside them couldn't help but clenched tightly.
Five people including pomegranate and cherry, plus Mama Jiang, the six people were divided into two groups, and rewarded the slaves one by one. Everyone can get one hundred copper coins, double the work, and an extra piece of fabric for outstanding performance, enough to cut a suit of clothes.
It was a special surprise to get the fabric, some of them couldn't believe their names were called, my God, the young lady actually knew me!
Of course Yu Zhi doesn’t know, but there is a picket team, whoever behaves well can all fall into the eyes of the picket team.
The servants happily came forward to receive the reward, thanking Yu Zhi gratefully, full of sense of ceremony.
The two baskets of copper coins are empty, and the fabrics brought up are all distributed, Yu Zhi doesn't care at all. Why did the team she led back then have the best performance all the year round? It is because she is willing to pay the bonus, and it can be paid on the same day, and it will never be delayed overnight.
"Everyone has worked hard today, and everyone will add an extra meat dish tonight. But if you are happy, you can't relax on your errands. Work hard, and we will pay half an extra month's money this month."
Everyone cheered, following a generous master is the blessing of a slave. Although Yu Zhi has not been married for long, the servants all like this mistress very much. She has very strict rules and likes to talk first, but as long as you abide by her rules, do your job well, don't cheat, cheat, or drink and gamble when you're on duty, she won't care too much. Of course, if you can make any good suggestions or have an outstanding performance, she will not hesitate to reward you.
In a word, just do your job well.
The servants borrowed from the Marquis of Wu’an’s Mansion also received rewards, because they are not from this mansion. In addition to today’s rewards, there is also half a month’s money promised earlier.
The slaves who were borrowed from the Marquis of Wu’an’s Mansion came back happily after receiving the reward money. They are envious of the people there. The food is good, the reward money is large, the master is kind, and the atmosphere is clean. Although the rules are strict, as long as you behave well, there will be no such nonsense, which is great!
After returning home, Ms. Wang also talked about the things here, "Ma'am, the old slave doesn't look like the third young lady is not a person who can't count." These days, she has the deepest experience, the rules there are better than those in the mansion, Everything is in order.
Mrs. Hou didn't think so, "What is she worth? After all, she is still young, competitive, likes to listen to flattery, and her hands are too loose." It is enough to add meat and vegetables, so much money is scattered for no reason. I didn't know that firewood was expensive at first!
"She is relying on a large dowry. I think what should I do when her dowry is filled?" How can it be so easy to take care of a marquis mansion? You need silver everywhere.
Although the third child has moved out, the brothers have not separated. The third child only has the two shops she gave her in the early years. As for the salary of the third child, it is enough for him to socialize.
Madam Hou deliberately didn't mention the property, she was waiting. When the money on hand of the third child is used up, the mansion over there can no longer maintain, either the third child will come back and bow to her, or the third wife will use the dowry to make up for it.
The third child is a person who wants face, and he is definitely not willing to spend the dowry of his daughter-in-law. At that time... Madam Hou's mouth is slightly upturned.
If Yu Zhi knew that her mother-in-law thought so, he would definitely not be able to resist spraying her face with salt soda. Will Master Xiaowen of her family have no money? Ha, Lord Xiaowen is a small money-making expert, and has quietly bought a lot of properties, but now they are all surnamed Yu, Yu Zhi's Yu!
"Third Master, how is it? How is the banquet going today? Is my wife good enough to make you look good?" Yu Zhi asked Wen Jiuxiao for credit, and before Wen Jiuxiao could speak, she boasted, "I really am You are so smart, the imperial examination will take this exam, I will definitely win the top prize."
She threw the thick "communication book" to Wen Jiuxiao, "Give it back to you, I don't want to see it again in this life."
Wen Jiuxiao couldn't help but laugh. He looked at Yu Zhi, who was crooked on the soft couch like a boneless one, and his eyes were full of doting, "Ma'am, you've worked hard! Ma'am is really a good wife for my husband. Be polite to me!"
He still made a bow to Yu Zhi in a similar manner.
Today, he received countless envious eyes, envious and jealous? Naturally, I envy him for marrying a good wife! A virtuous wife has few misfortunes, and a good wife will prosper for three generations. That's right, his family Zhizhi is such a good wife.
Yu Zhi squinted at him, "Don't just pretend, come here for something affordable."
Affordable? Wen Jiuxiao was thoughtful, and saw him bend over and hug Yu Zhi suddenly, and strode towards the bedroom.
Yu Zhi exclaimed, "Bastard, when I say affordable, I mean money, money!"
"I'm sorry, I misunderstood my husband and surprised my wife. I feel that I need to make an apology to my wife."
"No, I forgive you, let me down quickly."
"If you want, a man must take responsibility."
