Mingmen Family

Chapter 295 How to deal with servants?

"There are six concierges in each shift in our house, and there are six in the nursing home. These 24 people are on two shifts. Those who were on duty last night are resting today. There are also those in the kitchen. They are all busy in the kitchen. They are in charge of cleaning. Yes, I got up early in the morning and scanned everywhere. They all decided to do their own thing and didn’t dare to wander around. Therefore, it’s normal that Shizi and Shizi’s wife didn’t meet any servants while walking on the road.”

"You bring their roster." Ye Yaming said.

She turned her head and asked Lu Guanyi: "Where are their deeds?"

Lu Guanyi threw these words to Lu An without expression: "Lu An, where is the identity of the servant in the mansion?"

Lu An's attitude was still as respectful as before: "The deeds are kept by the masters, and the villain doesn't know where the deeds are."

Ye Yaming and Lu Guanyi looked at each other.

"Okay, I see." Ye Yaming said.

"The villain is going to get the roster of servants to Madam now?"

"it is good."

Seeing Lu An walk away, Lu Guanyi asked Ye Yaming: "What are you going to do with them?"

Ye Yaming asked without answering, "Do you have Zhuangzi under your name?"

Lu Guanyi instantly understood what she meant, and a smile appeared on his face: "Yes, there are two, just in the suburbs of Beijing, one with [-] mu and one with [-] mu, both with Zhuangzi."

"Which Zhuangzi has poorer conditions?" Ye Yaming asked again.

"The one at eight hundred acres."

Ye Yaming nodded: "When I investigate the situation of the servants in the mansion, I will keep the ones that can be used, and throw the ones that can't be used to the Zhuangzi. The slaves in the Zhuangzi don't work and have no food, so let them work on their own. Feed themselves."

Zhuangzi's fields belong to the master, and every year when there is a harvest, they need to hand over most of it to the master, and only a small part is left to support themselves.Naturally, what is left cannot be rice and white noodles, let alone chicken, duck and fish.Basically, it is half a year of bran vegetables and half a year of coarse grains.

The tenant farmers outside lived this kind of life, and the Zhuang slave naturally couldn't be better than them.The biggest advantage is probably that in times of famine, the tenant farmers can only sell their sons and daughters, or starve to death, and the slaves can still be taken care of by their masters, at least hanging their lives.

Of course, if the master is unscrupulous, there will only be a dead end, and he will not even be able to sell his children.

The servants of the Xuanwuhou Mansion are said to be slaves, but their lives are much better than those of ordinary people outside. They have new clothes in four seasons, and they are made of fine cloth. Let the master eat delicacies from mountains and seas that even small landlords may not be able to eat.

Going to Zhuangzi and becoming a Zhuang slave is even more unbearable than selling them.

Having said that, she looked at Lu Guanyi: "This is an unobtrusive way of handling it."

Lu Guanyi looked at her with a smile: "What do you mean by this, do you have another way to deal with it that attracts attention?"

Ye Yaming nodded: "You go to the yamen and ask the yamen to give them another contract, and then sell them all. But this is a bit cruel, and people will point out us. After all, history Shi also has friends, and her son Lu Guanyu is still there, and she has done too much, which does not give us a good reputation."

Shi Shi and Lu Guanyu really think she can't do anything about these servants?These servants don't obey discipline, and dare to make small moves behind their backs, isn't it because the deeds are not in her hands, do they think she can't sell them?
If you really want to make her unhappy, she will directly sell them to the place where the black mine is dug.

Lu Guanyi thought for a while and said, "That's still the first method."

According to his personality, he actually prefers the second method.But he had to worry about Ye Yaming's reputation.Ye Yaming's background was flawed. It was not easy for Princess Yuning to endorse her at the wedding banquet, making people dare not despise her anymore.

As for him, when the time comes, someone will go to the emperor and the prince to apply eye drops, saying that he is too indifferent and disregards family affection, which is not a good thing for him.

He said: "Fortunately, you made a defensive posture in front of so many people yesterday. I singled out a few people who made small moves yesterday and punished them for sale. No one would say anything. This has also achieved the effect of killing chickens and monkeys."

Ye Yaming thought: "Have you caught the evidence?"

Lu Guanyi nodded: "Of course I have to be on guard."

Ye Yaming gave him a thumbs up: "Not bad."

She had no choice yesterday, she was new here, and she couldn't plan to find out the troublemaker, so she could only take the worst strategy and take precautions.But my heart is not without regret and aggrieved.

It was the first time she was like this, she could only be beaten but not fight back.

Although she asked those dowry servants a question, she would cleverly investigate what happened yesterday.But they are newcomers after all, and they came to this house yesterday, and they are unfamiliar with the place, so it is impossible for them to find out anything.

She thought that this boring loss was settled for her.Unexpectedly, Lu Guanyi did what she wanted to do.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you." She said happily, "Which servants in the mansion are good and which are not, you know all of them?"

Lu Guanyi nodded: "I'll ask Antai to give you a list then."

"Great." Ye Yaming became more and more happy.

Lu Guanyi moved closer to her and asked, "So happy?"

"That's not true." Ye Yaming sighed, "I used to spend all my time planning the layout, but this is the first time someone has done it for me."

She smiled at Lu Guanyi: "Thank you."

A flash of pity flashed in Lu Guanyi's eyes: "Wait for me for a few more years, and I will come back by your side when the time comes, and I won't ask you to worry about it."

"it is good."

Madam Xia was on duty last night, and has been resting today, so she is not here.Otherwise, after listening to this conversation, she would definitely praise Ye Yaming, "You have the right way to control your husband".

Man, when he does something for you, you have to praise him desperately, so that he is more willing to do things for you.Over time, it becomes a habit, and all your affairs become his deep-rooted responsibility.

On the contrary, there are some virtuous women who do everything, dedicate silently, and have no demands on men.Not only will men not be grateful, but they will not be able to see your goodness.

In short, men are cheap bones, they can't go away without coaxing them.

After a while, Lu An brought the roster of servants, and Ye Yaming asked Bai Rui to take it, and then sent Lu An away: "Okay, you step down."

Lu Anwei stepped back in awe, his eyes under his eyelashes were full of complacency.

The second son was right, the two of them didn't have their contract of selling themselves, and they were concerned about their reputation, so they didn't dare to do anything to them.As long as they don't make too much trouble, they can stay in this house well.

For their own sake, they will not force themselves to confront the two of them.But it is still possible to cut flesh with a soft knife.Especially after Shizi went to the border, when dealing with a merchant girl from Lin'an, they would definitely make her suffer and not be able to complain.
