Nongmen Jia Niang: The little blessed wife of the general's family
Chapter 307 Household Affairs
Two days later, Ye Xiujin went back to work on the library, and Zhao Xueer went to the business as usual.
Yin Tao put down everything to stay with Ye Xiuwen. In her heart, only this man is more important now.
Ye Xiuwen's body was feeble, and he often closed his eyes and fell asleep while talking, Yin Tao gently covered him with the quilt and retreated out.
Mother Hu came in, holding a stack of invitation cards and gift slips in her hand, and reported softly: "Several families have sent gifts and greeting cards, saying that they want to come to visit the second master, but the old slave stopped them. It is said that the second master is weak, and it is not convenient to see people now, when the second master is well, the second master and the second wife will come to thank you in person!"
Afraid of waking Ye Xiuwen up, Yin Tao led Madam Hu to the flower hall, and then told Bai Shao to go in and look after Second Master Dian, who would call her when Second Master woke up.
The greeting cards were all from officials and eunuchs, Yin Tao didn't recognize them after looking at them, obviously either for King Kang or the second master met outside, and also read the gift list, there was nothing surprising, so she returned both the greeting cards and the gift list to Mother Hu.
Recently, there have been more officials coming and going around the house. I don't know why, but I have to wait for Ye Xiuwen to wake up and ask him.
"Mother Hu has worked hard these past few days. There is no chaos at home, and everyone is fine. All the servants are given two taels of silver. The big maids in my house are ten taels each, and you and Uncle Uncle each have 50 taels."
Hu's mother wanted to object: "It's just for the rest of the family. Uncle Fu and I don't mind it. If you want to give it so much, you can do it like a big maid. Besides, thanks to Xueer's busy work that day, Fubo and I Uncle is old, old, useless!"
Hu's mother's eyes were a little red, and the two old guys didn't stand up for a big incident at home.
Bai Zhi came over with a bowl of white fungus soup and put it on the table, Yin Tao picked up the white porcelain spoon and turned it gently, but didn't drink it, but said to Bai Zhi: "Go down first, I'll talk to Madam Hu!"
Bai Zhi glanced at Mama Hu, turned around and went out.
Only then did Yin Tao let Mama Hu sit down and talk: "People say that if there is an old man in a family, it is like having a treasure. I am young and ignorant. Mama Hu came to help me when it was the most difficult time, and helped me prop up the family. Do you know me? I am so grateful to Mama Hu."
Mother Hu's lips moved, she lowered her head slightly, but she didn't say a word.
"Mother Hu, do you think there are any people like me who can manage the house?"
Hu's mother was shocked, and it took a long time before she raised her head and said, "Bai Zhi has a hot temper, but sometimes she doesn't turn corners in what she says and does, and it is easy to offend people. Bai Shao has a gentle temper, but she can't control her servants. Mrs. Do you want to find a housekeeper among these few people?"
She said that she didn't even mention Huaijiao and Huaiye, since the last time Yin Tao had an accident, the two of them had a hard time.If Yin Tao didn't go out, the two would practice martial arts in the backyard, working very hard, no matter what Yin Tao said, they wouldn't listen, so Yin Tao had to ask Mother Hu to feed them well every day, and send them all good things.
"Actually, even if Mama Hu doesn't say anything, I know it's okay for those two girls to serve me, but it's not good to be a housekeeper."
Hu's mother also nodded: "Actually, Xue'er is really kind, she can hold her breath, and she can suppress others. She does things clearly, and there is no dissatisfaction in the family."
"Her abilities shouldn't be buried here." Yin Tao shook her head resolutely, and suddenly thought of someone: "What does Mama Hu think about picking green?"
"Ah, this is really good, whatever is convenient!" Mother Hu also smiled, but there was a trace of bitterness that was not easy to detect. She was afraid that she should leave when she came back from picking greens.
Yin Tao also smiled: "She is by my Aunt Fang's side now, let her come back when Aunt Fang gets married, teach her well, and when she gets used to it, Mother Hu will just take care of her in the backyard for the elderly. If you want to go out for a walk, go for a walk, if you want to see your wife, you go, if you want to worship the Buddha, you go to the small Buddha hall, the uncle's biological mother is there, and she doesn't see people on weekdays, so she doesn't know if she is lonely or not?"
Mother Hu was a little unbelievable, with joy in her eyes: "Madam, do you still want me to stay?"
"Mother Hu, you are indispensable in this family, don't you want to leave me alone!" Yin Tao smiled: "However, you are right, you and Uncle Fu are getting old, it's really not good to work hard like this, you guys Just cultivate one or two capable ones, and make it easier for yourself, but you still need to keep an eye on them at home!"
"Ma'am, I... oh!" Mother Hu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "I followed Madam when I was young, and she was just a nanny at that time. Her status is even lower."
"When you came to ask for someone, Madam just wanted me to find a way out." Tears flowed from Mama Hu's eyes again: "I didn't expect Madam to give me such dignity, this old slave is really grateful!"
Yin Tao didn't expect Hu's mother to be so worried. She worried that if she couldn't do something, she would be fired by the master's family. After all, she didn't follow the Ye family all the time.
Where can she go as a lonely old man with no children?Even if there is some money, it will be bleak to be alone, she can't go back to the palace again, where even the wife has already closed the door every day for the reason of worshiping Buddha, and going back by herself is just an annoying burden.
After Yin Tao comforted her a few words, she asked Mama Hu to call Uncle Fu. Mama Hu felt confident and walked with wind.
Uncle Fu seemed to have a little more gray hair at the sideburns, and his back was bent a little. Maybe it was because the second master woke up, but he still looked happy and relaxed.
"Uncle Fu, sit down!" Yin Tao had just finished drinking the white fungus soup, Bai Zhi came in and brought tea out, served tea for both Yin Tao and Uncle Fu, and then went out.
Uncle Fu was a little at a loss, he had been in the Ye family all his life, and he didn't have the worry of being kicked out by Mama Hu, but he really didn't know what to do.
"Uncle Fu, how old is your son?" When Yin Tao opened his mouth, Uncle Fu was startled, he thought his wife was going to say something against him.
"The son of this old slave is twenty-eight years old. My wife asked him what's the matter? Did he do something bad?"
Uncle Fu was a little puzzled, his son was quite honest, he followed him all the time, didn't he find out what he did?
"Forbe, please don't worry. This is what I think. Uncle Fu has been taking care of the Ye family all his life. Your son is getting older. It's better for him to help you share more of the burden. Uncle Fu will just supervise him and don't worry about everything. If you do it yourself, if you get tired, it's our juniors' fault, and then the uncle and the second master will feel distressed."
Uncle Fu rolled his eyes and understood Yin Tao's meaning: "Madam, do you want my son to be the manager of Ye's front yard?"
"Well, but, Uncle Fu will be the big manager. If they can't make up their minds, they have to trouble Uncle Fu. From now on, your monthly silver will be doubled!"
Uncle Fu's face was a little excited. There are few Ye family members. What kind of big steward is needed there, and he is willing to hand over the stewardship to his son. However, with his wife's words, he felt very comfortable and did not think about it It's not about silver.
After Uncle Fu left, Yin Tao sighed. There was an accident at home, and she realized that the two stewards were indeed old, but if they were removed directly, they would feel cold again, and she couldn't do such a thing herself.
Now it seems that this way of getting the best of both worlds is very good, each has its own place, perfect!
