Chapter 9

These days, the light willow attends at the side of Fang Xinsu, also can be regarded as seeing all kinds of life.

All the servants thought that if the girls were in charge of the affairs, the young ladies who had not been out of the cabinet were naturally thin-faced and broad-minded. Naturally, they were easier to fool than Mrs. Hou. Therefore, they all had to be slack and put off everything. There are not a few people who have filled their own pockets and shoddy goods. What's more, there are also those who are clever enough to get more money and even steal property from the government.

But after a day, people began to feel the smell.

Needless to say, Shen Tian, the eldest daughter of Hou's family, has a strong sense of dignity in her actions, and her subordinates don't dare to be perfunctory. Moreover, she has been used to helping Han's family to do some housework for several years, and the servants in the kitchen are still honest, so she seems to be able to handle affairs with ease.

Since Fang Xinsu's mother left, she has been the director of the family for the past two years. Now she is still in charge of the fields and shops. As an outsider, although not much, but never buck passing, has its own set of rules. What's wrong with the next people is that they don't speak in a strict voice. Instead, they analyze it one by one in a slow and soft voice. It's clear and well founded, so that those who reply can't wait to get into the cracks in the ground.

Although Shen Xiang was very childish, he left his mother when he was young and had to be self reliant. His mother's teaching gradually straightened out after a long time.

Shen Ying and Shen Lian are much worse. Both of them are common women. Some of them don't think much of them if they have a decent job in the government.

Shen Ying is so used to being gentle that she can't hold them. Fortunately, mother Qi is still in charge. After suffering a few small losses, Shen Ying hardens her heart and sends off a few people who don't listen to her, so people are much more honest.

It was Shen Lian. Although she was flustered for a few days at the beginning, she soon calmed down and only talked about the rules of the house. If someone breaks the rules, no matter who has a face or no face, she will treat them equally. If they should be punished, they should be rewarded. For a moment, people dare not fool her.

On the whole, after selling several servants and changing several managers, the atmosphere of the government changed instantly, and all of them became honest.

Shen Xiang, who had been in power for the first time, was preparing for a big fight. Who knew that people were used to it when they were under Han's hands. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly put out the idea of fishing in troubled waters.

This day, they are bored here, but someone bumps into them. A daughter-in-law received the right card to reply, saying that she wanted the young man's tea money this month. Shen Xiang asked, "what's the money for tea?" The daughter-in-law replied, "twenty taels of silver a month is for young masters to drink tea, use snacks and write money in school."

Shen Xiang snorted coldly, "all brothers have their own share, ten taels of silver a month. Pen, ink, paper and inkstone, tea and snacks are also distributed according to the rules. How did the money come from? "

The daughter-in-law said with a smile, "that's what it's all about. Maybe it's a name from the top to supplement the young man."

Shen Xiang also said, "pure bullshit is to supplement brothers, and it should be led by the headmistress or big servant girl in each courtyard. What does it have to do with you?"

It happened that Erya, the girl of the third young master Shen Mao, was here. She said with a smile, "I've never heard that our young master still has this money. Sometimes the three young masters of Gongzhong don't like to drink tea. They all make money to buy tea alone. "

Shen Xiang said, "it seems that I don't know whose pocket the silver has been filled." The daughter-in-law lowered her head and kept silent. Shen Xiang was about to punish her, but Shen Tian pulled her sleeve. Seeing her cousin shaking her head, Shen Xiang knew that she was not going to make a scene.

Although Shen Xiang didn't understand his meaning, he still said, "just forget the past. I'll let bygones be bygones, my girl. This silver is just like this. If it happens again, I will not spare you. " The daughter-in-law had to promise to go. After the daughter-in-law left, Shen Xiang looked at Shen Tian and said, "sister, why don't you let me punish that woman. It's just because we are so easy to talk that we are so confident. "

Shen Tian shakes his head. "She has been a housekeeper for so many years. Doesn't she know this idea? However, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. We are the Marquis's house, and we should occasionally leak something to our servants. Mother's housekeeper is strict, and the stewards only dare to be greedy for small money. I heard that a comprador from the government, together with the housekeeper, had quoted dozens of times more for chicken, duck and fish. They dare to pay 200 Wen for an egg of three Wen. Fortunately, the new daughter-in-law of the family was a good one. When she saw the account book, she told her mother-in-law. Now you find out the matter. You can't think of how much money the master's family has collected from the steward's house. "

Everyone was hanged appetite, Shen Xiang urgent pull Shen Tian sleeve "good sister, you quickly say ah."

Shen Tian said, "after more than ten years in charge, the man has saved tens of thousands of liang of furniture, countless gold and silver treasures, and a four-way house. If it wasn't for the slaves who couldn't buy land, I would have become a big landlord. Even the four or five grade officials in Beijing, who are so idle, may not be able to set up such a family property after more than ten years. "

When they heard this, they all smacked their tongue.

Fang Xinsu also picked up a few pieces of Diao Nu from some wealthy families in Fuzhou. He bullied others and harmed the master's family. A group of sisters began to argue about this topic. The women waiting outside all looked at each other. Is this the case or not? What if you don't say something to the point and you become a Diao Nu?

Just at this time, a woman came in from the Chuihua gate. She fell on her knees and said, "ladies, someone from the palace has brought the imperial edict. She is waiting in the front yard. Please go to the front yard to receive the edict."

What's the point? What's the point?

Although there are many doubts in her heart, Qingliu quickly pulls fangxinsu aside to dress her up. Fortunately, she would take one or two of the girl's big clothes and a few kinds of jewelry with her every day for a rainy day.

Today, Fang Xinsu wore a moon white tunic and a water blue slant skirt. Qingliu took out a lilac purple Yanluo shirt she took with her to replace it. Today, she wears a pair of white jade ornaments on her head, which is a little plain. Qingliu happens to have a jasper cut-out Hibiscus Huasheng, which is also suitable.

Fang Xinsu usually wears only one or two bracelets because he dislikes the extra burden of wearing bracelets. In the Dakang Dynasty, where four bracelets were popular among noble women, it was obviously a little thinner. Today, she brought a pair of jade Princess bracelets, and Qingliu found a pair of jade bracelets of similar color from the box for her to wear. Then put two Jasper rings on your fingers, and hang a jasper vine flower pendant on your waist.

That's fair enough.
