Chapter 228, Take over the kitchen
After the beginning of spring, Daohua has been very busy, busy attending classes, and busy patrolling various villages. At the same time, Mrs. Li also gave her a task, which is to learn to manage the kitchen.
"Mother, good, why did you let me manage the kitchen?"
Daohua is a little unwilling. She wants to get rid of the errands. There is nothing she can do. She has too many things to learn every day. Take time to manage Zhuangzi and shop.
It can be said that you get up earlier than chickens, sleep later than dogs, and are more social animals than social animals.
That is to say, the return is quite gratifying, otherwise, she would like to quit.
What about the good life of rice worms?
Mrs. Li gave her a white look: "What is the early? Mother is too late. After August, you will be twelve. You should also learn about housekeeping and socializing."
As soon as she heard about her age, Daohua's head grew big.
If you stay in modern times, you are twelve years old, and you have just entered junior high school, but people in ancient times are already preparing for marriage in the future.
Ms. Li ignored her daughter who straddled her face, and continued: “Don’t you like to cook? It just happens to start with managing the kitchen so that you can get started.”
"When you are familiar with the kitchen, then take over the sewing room"
Daohua quickly interrupted: "Mother, when does our house have a sewing room?"
Mrs. Li glanced at her daughter again: "You, just focus on your Zhuangzi shops, and don't care about family affairs."
After finishing speaking, he paused and explained patiently.
"Nowadays, our family has more opportunities to go out as guests. Your father is the head of a state. You can't be ashamed of wearing this. In addition, there are more and more people in the family. The change of clothes every season is a big expense. With the sewing room, you don’t need to go out to buy clothes, and you can save a lot of money."
"Although our family now has more sources of income, it can't be extravagant and wasteful. In two years, you will all be older, and there will be more places to spend money."
Inaba nodded.
Her mother really has a hand in housekeeping and directorship, and she can think of many things ahead.
Ms. Li touched Daohua’s head: "We women can relax when we are girls, but if it’s too easy, we have to make up for the sins we have suffered when we go to her husband’s house."
"My mother knows that your schoolwork is busy, but now you work harder, and you can relax later when you come to your husband's house. At home, if you don't understand, you can still ask your mother, but when you arrive at your husband's house, even if your mother-in-law is reasonable, you will not run away. Go ask."
"Think about it for yourself, do you study at home, or do you want to learn when you marry in the future?"
Daohua said depressed: "Mother, I just learn."
The director of the house is something that every regular wife must meet. The concubine is comfortable and doesn’t have to do anything, but she has to live by relying on others. Not only can he control his own destiny, but even the children born are inferior to others.
Everything has something to do, there must be a sacrifice.
If you enjoy the comfort, you must pay the corresponding price.
Mrs. Li smiled, and quickly took the personnel register and purchase ledger from Pingtong, and put them directly into Daohua's hands: "Take it back to familiarize yourself with it, if you don't understand, or if you don't know it, just ask. I."
Ina Flower nodded, and resignedly took two books and left.
Daohuaxuan.
Daohua stood under the eaves of the porch to play with the parrots, and in the yard stood the kitchen steward, Mrs. Ren, and the buyer was expensive.
The two have been here for a while. There are chairs in the yard and refreshments are prepared. Wang Man'er let him sit, but neither of them dared to stand respectfully, watching Daohua carefully.
Big girl.
To be honest, although it is a girl’s house, none of the Yan family dares to underestimate it.
Don’t do anything else, if you dare to challenge the eldest girl face to face with the master, no one dares to provoke her.
Come again, the eldest girl is indeed amazing. If there is anything in the house, she is helping the lady to fight, and the lady is in charge of the situation, and the eldest girl is responsible for making up for the omission.
Yan’s family held several banquets, and every time the guests left with a smile.
On this point, it can be seen that the eldest girl is a meticulous and thoughtful person.
Now that the eldest girl is in charge of the kitchen, they don’t have to live and wait for them.
Looking at the two people standing and not sitting in the yard, Daohua was a little speechless.
Seriously, she really didn’t think about giving the two people a chance to seduce them.
Without him, most of what the Yan family eats is taken from their own shop. Even if they want to embezzle, they probably won’t find a chance.
She teased the bird, but she simply didn't know what to say to ease her embarrassment, but the two of them had to stand, which made her very helpless.
Daohua put down the parrot and walked over to sit down: "Sit down, too."
At this time, Mrs. Ren and Fang Gui dared to sit down, but both of them only sat a little forward, their waists straight.
Rice Flower: "."
Is she very domineering female president?
Look at the appearance of these two people, I don’t know how fierce she is!
"Mother let me be in charge of the kitchen. Although I often go there, many things are not too clear. You can tell me about the situation there."
Speaking, Daohua paused and looked at Fang Gui: "Why do I think you are familiar?"
Wang Man'er immediately smiled and answered: "Girl, you must think Fang Cai is like Lady Fang!"
Daohua appeared in a daze: "Yes, it's like the lady in charge beside her."
Fang Gui immediately smiled and said, “If you go back to the girl, Mrs. Fang is my sister, and our sisters and brothers are a little alike.”
"Oh" Daohua nodded, "No wonder." She said, and looked at Mrs. Ren again, "There is a man named Ren Xiaogu at the concierge. Is it related to you?"
Lady Ren immediately replied: "Back to the girl, that is my son."
Daohana nodded again, raised her teacup, and started drinking.
Unknowingly, the simple staff of the Yan family has also begun to move towards complicating the relationship.
With the gradual increase in the number of people in the family, it will definitely become more and more difficult to be a steward.
It’s no wonder that the mother has been clamoring to find a powerful daughter-in-law for the eldest brother. I think this is also considered.
A family with intricate relationships, it is not easy to take care of everything up and down.
Now she understands Mrs. Li’s motherly heart, let her take over the kitchen so early, I am afraid that she will not be able to establish a foothold in her husband’s house in the future.
Lady Ren and Fang Gui saw that Daohua suddenly stopped talking, and their hearts suddenly became tense. They recalled what they had just said. There was nothing wrong with them.
But for a moment, Daohua put down her teacup: “The rules in the kitchen are still according to my mother’s previous rules. However, I have to add two more.”
"First, no matter which room or person orders something in the kitchen in the future, it must be registered." She wants to look at the expenses of each room.
"Second, the data purchased before is not detailed enough. I will make a form later, and fill it out according to the form I gave in the future."
The current purchasing account book only writes the quantity and the amount, without the source and contact information, which can easily lead to corruption and false reporting of the amount in the procurement process.
Both Lady Ren and Fang Gui respectfully responded, but they felt a little bitter in their hearts.
The eldest girl came up, although she seemed to have done nothing, but she cut off their invisible benefits.
Mother-in-law is in charge of the kitchen. She dare not take good things, but she will make more or less when she wants to eat in each room, or use it to buy the maid under her hand, or secretly take it home.
Nowadays, food and drink have to be registered, and the space for operation is small.
Fang Gui is the same. He doesn’t dare to be too greedy, but it’s common to raise the price of some things he buys by a few pennies. Now that he has replaced the purchasing account book, he has to be careful with the cleverness of the big girl.
