Chapter 448 I don't want to be a housekeeper

After completing the family tree, the two major things to do today are all done.

Next, Ye Anlan only needs to gather the maids in Li Jing's yard together, wait for them to salute her, and then give them a wave of rewards. She can spend the rest of the day freely.

Then tomorrow morning, Li Jing will take her to greet the elders in the clan, and also introduce her to other Li's children of the same and younger generations.

In the end, she will return home in three days, but this time Ye Anlan does not plan to return to the British government next door. She plans to return to the Yongchang Hou Mansion where Ye Jinkui and Li Shi are located.

The two came out of the ancestral hall and strolled back to the main courtyard.

The maidservants in the main courtyard had been waiting for them a long time ago, and when they saw the young couple coming back, a group of people rushed over to welcome them.

They bowed their knees and saluted, saying, "I have seen the Duke, I have seen the wife."

Ye Anlan raised her right hand slightly, "Excuse me."

She and Li Jing went back to the house and changed out of their dresses.

After changing clothes, Li Jing said to Ye Anlan: "I used to live in the front yard, and the maids and women in this yard were temporarily arranged by my grandmother and mother before our wedding. If you think any of them can't be used, you can tell them I said, I'll send them elsewhere."

Before getting married, he only had servants and guards around him, and when he was about to get married, his grandmother and mother arranged some maidservants for him to work in the main courtyard, but even so, before yesterday, he still lived in the same place as before. hospital.

The maidservants in the main courtyard have never served him, so naturally no one has any relationship with him. If they don't listen to orders, or eat inside and out, and don't keep their duties, Li Jing doesn't want Ye Anlan to do it because of him or His grandmother and mother have scruples.

Ye Anlan accepted Li Jing's kindness, and she said: "Whether I can use it depends on their follow-up performance. When I find that someone is not suitable, it will not be too late for us to dismiss them."

Although she is dismissive of some feudal dross, she is not a particularly strong and extremely guarded person.

The people picked out by Li Jing's grandmother and mother, she would not feel that these people were bestowed by the elders from the very beginning, they are not important, and they are not easy to use, or simply suspect that these people are a group sent by the elders to monitor her Eyeliner, and then find an excuse to send them out.

She doesn't make assumptions, and she doesn't make preconceptions. If they do things well and don't break her taboo, she can keep them and entrust them with important responsibilities.

But if they couldn't figure out their identities, then Ye Anlan didn't mind clearing out the muddy guys.

She is not the kind of aggrieved daughter-in-law who tries hard to please her elders after she enters her husband's house.

She doesn't recognize a word of the dog-like logic of "the ones around and given by the elders, even cats and dogs, as a junior, you have to respect and give in to show your filial piety".

Servants who work hard and abide by their duties, she can treat them as employees, or even as partners, and give them rewards and respect. If she wants to do evil all day long, if she doesn't clean them up, is she waiting for them to harm herself or Li Jing?

Ye Anlan, who had a book in mind, said that no one should try to force her to make concessions just because she stands in a special place.

The two sat together, first Li Jing accompanied Ye Anlan to see the servants arranged by his grandmother and mother, and then Ye Anlan accompanied Li Jing to watch the servants she married.

After the two had recognized all the servants, Ye Anlan sent away a total of twenty or so maids and women.

"There are still too many people, and the promising ones have to find something else to do."

Li Jing knew she would say that, he smiled and held Ye Anlan's hand, "It's up to you."

Ye Anlan immediately leaned her head on Li Jing's shoulder, "Then can I ignore the affairs of the house?"

Li Jing: "... You have to go tell your mother about this."

Ye Anlan: "... OK."

The two got bored together for a while, and then went to Mrs. Li's place for dinner together.

Li Jing is very good at coaxing the elders. They chatted before and after meals, and he made Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li smile all over their faces.

When they were about to leave Songqingyuan with Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li smiled and said to the young couple: "Now that you are married, I won't worry about the affairs of the house for you. After Yuanniang returns, I will Let people send the account books and keys to the main courtyard."

Ye Anlan never expected that Mrs. Li would just mention that in the morning, and she would serve her the main course in the evening.

She waved her hand vigorously, "Mom, I'm too busy, you should continue to help take care of it, otherwise your daughter-in-law will have no time to eat and rest."

Ms. Li: Isn’t it the ultimate dream of young wives to be in charge of Zhongfu? Why did her daughter-in-law treat this as a scourge?

She was wondering, when Ye Anlan said again: "There are also those houses, shops, villages and so on that you and your grandmother added to the dowry before, and you will have to work hard to continue to help manage them."

Mrs. Li: What? ? ?

Ye Anlan took her arm and acted coquettishly, "The ones at the British government's side, I hand them over to the steward, and the Anguo government's side, since you took care of it so well before, you'll definitely be able to do it well in the future, so I'll take care of it. No need to intervene in it.”

Before Mrs. Li could say, "Now they belong to you, and it's justified for you to take care of them." Ye Anlan added, "But I'm lazy and don't work, and I'm making my mother-in-law hard. Grandma has to keep it secret for me, or I'm afraid I'll be reprimanded by those idle guys again."

Li Jing also helped to beat the side drum, "Yuanniang asked you to take care of it, so you can help take care of it if you are tired, she is really too busy to take care of it."

Mrs. Li squinted at him, thinking that you are helping your wife on the surface, but in fact you are cheating on her, do you understand?

Li Jing touched his nose, thinking that it must be that you are the kind of person who would covet the dowry of your daughter-in-law!

At this time, Mrs. Li didn’t know that when her daughter-in-law had a baby, she would be entrusted to help supervise the British government’s property_(:з」∠)_

Successful in throwing the blame away, Ye Anlan happily sent Mrs. Li back to her yard with Li Jing.

In Songqingyuan, Mrs. Li, who was pregnant and comforted, said to her confidant, "This child is the one who treats her well if you treat her well. She should be a member of our family by nature."

Everyone in their family counts as one, and they are all like this. What they pay attention to is exchanging sincerity for sincerity. No one will regard other people's kindness as weakness or bullying, and no one will regard other people's kindness to themselves as deceitful. Take advantage of this opportunity.
