Traveling through the daily life of raising a family in ancient times

Chapter 123 New Employee Onboarding Guide

That is to say, the other party has to bring the child to the house.Because of this, her wages are a little lower, including one tael of silver per month for food and lodging.

Another cook's family lives in a village on the edge of the city. Compared with Qiuniang, she has no one with her.

But I can only cook some ordinary home-cooked dishes, and the price is higher, including one, two or three dollars a month for food and lodging.

The two couldn't make up their minds for a moment.In the end, it was Meng Shurui who whispered to He Yanxin before deciding on the candidate.

I still chose Qiuniang with the child.

What Meng Shurui told He Yanxin was that it would be more convenient for the master to have a simple relationship behind the cook.

Otherwise, the other party may fill their own pockets, miss home, and have to leave home from time to time.Pull out a lot of things.

Besides, how much food can an eight-year-old girl eat?If you live in the same house as her mother, you can do it.

After the selection, Song Yeqing went to pay the money and handed over the contract of sale for the three of them.

And Ah Hua, a girl who is almost an adult, only sells for six taels of silver.

Desi and Aping are more expensive, one for ten taels and one for eight taels.

As for Qiuniang, she will go back today to return the rental house and pack it up, and bring her daughter to Mengjiazhuang early tomorrow morning.

"Brother Yuming, thank you very much for today!" Out of the dental clinic, He Yanxin cupped his hands at Meng Shurui.

"You're cheating on me." Meng Shurui pretended not to be happy.

"I'm just saying something polite to you, haha..." He Yanxin said with a smile.

Looking at the three people with lowered heads behind him, he said, "Brother Yuming, you go back first, we have to take some people to buy something."

Meng Shurui asked if he needed any help, and after getting a polite refusal, he got into the mule cart that came from his family.

Song Yeqing whispered something, and He Yanxin stopped him again, saying:

"Today's situation is really not good to entertain you. We, husband and wife, invite you to come over for a light meal tomorrow night."

Meng Shurui also didn't get out of the car, and solemnly replied from above: "Okay, I will definitely come tomorrow night."

The two watched him leave before turning their gazes behind them.

A'Hua still carries a burden on her body, which should be something she accumulated after working as a maid for so many years.

But Dexi and Aping are really light, except for the clothes they are wearing, there is basically nothing else.

Oh, no, Ah Ping still recited it.It was a thin quilt that couldn't be seen at all, it was so dark and rotten that people couldn't bear to look directly at it.

He Yanxin let him throw it away, but he was still reluctant.

Finally, the attitude became tough, and the other party reluctantly threw it away.

"Let's go, let's go buy some daily necessities." He Yanxin said.

I have to buy new bedding and toiletries. This is critical, and other things can be added slowly.

On the way back to Mengjiazhuang, there was something in the carriage, and Song Yeqing drove.

He Yanxin and the three walked on the road, explaining their basic situation to them, and asking some questions to deepen their mutual understanding.

When he got home, He Yanxin put on the cart again, and took Aping to the village to find the bed boards and pull them back.

He wanted to build a common shop for Dexi and Aping. The boards were cheap, and he pulled a bunch of tens of pennies.I bought some old bed legs and fell asleep like this first.

At home, Song Yeqing took them to clean up the room where He Yanxin lived, moved to next door to her room, and made a new bed for him.

There is still a lot of space in the inner courtyard, and floor tiles are laid in the courtyard.But there are only three rooms, and the one in the pharmacy is the smallest.

"Remember, you can't enter these two rooms." Song Yeqing pointed to the pharmacy and her own room, and instructed them.

A lot of things in her room are in the space, including beds and wardrobes.The whole inside is a modern bedroom.

Many utensils in the pharmacy are also modern.It's not good for them to see.

For safety, she added: "There is nothing to do in the future, so you don't need to come to the inner courtyard."

Ah Hua and Desi both bowed their heads in response. "Yes! Madame!"

"The next time I talk, just keep your heads up, and you don't need to call my wife."

"Yes!"

Hearing this, A'hua and Desi lowered their heads subconsciously, and stopped their movements quickly.The head is raised, but the eyes are still drooping.

Song Yeqing hesitated to speak, but finally remained silent.

Forget it, let’s teach this aspect slowly, let’s do the work first.

There are five rooms in the outer courtyard, the main room is divided into the study room, the living room and the room where He Yanxin used to live.

Zhou Jichuan lives in the West Wing, which has two big rooms.

Song Yeqing thought about it, the room where He Yanxin lived was slightly smaller, so he took them to move Zhou Jichuan's things to that room.

Not long after packing up, He Yanxin came back with the board.

They set up a Datong bunk in the vacant room in the west wing for two boys to live in.

The room where Zhou Jichuan lived originally had a big bed, which could be used for Qiuniang and her daughter.

So just make another one for Ah Hua.

After finally arranging the residence, He Yanxin took them to briefly identify the house.

To the east is the kitchen, utility room and bathroom.The latrine and stables were in the corner beyond the garden, near the gate.

The three children in the family have been staring at the newcomer curiously since they first entered the door.

Zhou Jichuan, in particular, felt apprehensive.He couldn't help much here, and now there are three more job grabbers, so what should we do in the future?

He Yanxin asked the three new recruits to introduce themselves just like the former employees, and let the children recognize people.

"It's name, age, where you come from, and what hobbies you have. Well, what you like to do on weekdays."

The three of them understood that Ah Hua and Dexi originally wanted to kneel down to answer, but He Yanxin stopped them.

"The servant girl's name is Ah Hua, but I don't remember her last name, nor her family."

Ah Hua shook her head while talking, not sure if she really couldn't remember or she resented her parents who sold her out.

"The servant girl likes... likes..." She thought for a long time. "Like making wreaths."

The rough servant girl is actually doing the rough work of cleaning and washing clothes every day.She didn't eat or play anything good.

There are many flowers in the garden of the former owner's house. Her brightest memory in the past few years is to pick some from the flower branches cut by the gardener and make a wreath for herself.

"The younger one's name is Dexi, and his surname is Liu. He was originally a son of the Liu family in Qingshi County." That is to say, his parents are also servants of the Liu family. "I like to eat dim sum."

After speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed to show his loyalty. "I beg Mrs. Master to give the little one a new surname and name."

What are these hobbies?It's too scarce.Did he not explain clearly or the other party misunderstood?

He Yanxin was speechless, so he called him up, and we will discuss the name later.Then signaled Aping to start the introduction.

"My... young one is Chen Aping, I live in Dashu Village, I like..." Aping also got stuck, and after recalling what the first two said, he continued: "I like to eat meat."

The last time he ate meat was on New Year's Eve three years ago. Although it was only a small piece, he thought it was the most delicious thing in the world.
