Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 1127 Anonymous (2)
It happened to be cloudy and rainy today, so Wen Shi immediately found an excuse. Presumably, he knew that she could eat better, so he was afraid that she would be uncomfortable?When she was in the capital, Qingli had seen a lot about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law plotting against each other. The mother-in-law tried every means to send a concubine to the son's room to monitor, because she was afraid that the mother and child would be separated. Compared with these, it is very easy to be Wen's daughter-in-law.

After the meal, Qingli washed and tidied up, and came to the flower hall of the main house. The decoration here is relatively luxurious. There are bonsai of rich and noble peonies at the door, a small sofa table, and a small pier for villains to rest their feet. The person in charge of the inner house Three or four women from shopping, kitchen, and chores came and waited patiently.

"Okay, let's go back from Mrs. Feng."

Mrs. Feng is a 40-year-old woman. She is shrewd and neat. She used to work in a big family, but the family wanted to move to the south, and they didn't want to bring so many people with them, so they sold her and her husband.

In fact, Mrs. Feng is a good person. She is the housekeeper of a rich family, she is honest and kind, she rarely punishes people, and she has a good reputation.The only thing to blame is that the daughter born to him and Mrs. Feng was too beautiful, and she didn't want to be a child, so she was forced to hang herself. Because the rescue was timely, she saved her life, but she hurt her throat. Now she speaks like a duck, with a hoarse voice , his daughter became more and more silent, unwilling to leave the room.

The couple and their daughter were not so much betrayed as they were framed and kicked out by a wealthy family. It happened that the Wen family wanted to recruit people. Seeing that the family of three was solid, they kept them.

"Young Madam, this is the bill for the purchase in the past two days. Because the last part of the courtyard has not been renovated, the cost is relatively high. There is every bill in it, and I remember it clearly."

After being kicked out, the rich family didn't leave any money for the family of three. They thought they were going out to drink the northwest wind, but who would have thought that the time would change, from a servant of an ordinary rich family to the most admired Major General Chunyu in the North? A servant of the new government.They compete secretly, this is a rare opportunity, and they must work hard.

"Well, money can't be saved in this regard, as much as you need."

Qingli nodded, took the account book and casually looked around, immediately feeling dizzy.The Mo family has already begun to use Arabic numerals to keep accounts, and it has been widely promoted. Every time she looks at the account book, she only needs to do mental calculations. She is suddenly not used to the old-fashioned and cumbersome bookkeeping mode. The numbers above have to go through the brain and convert them into Arabic numeral addition and subtraction.

The family's expenses are not small, and the new mansion is like this, just gradually improve it. There is a certain amount of silver on the mansion's books, which are all gifts from this big wedding. There are also some gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc. in the warehouse. Shi had already given her the key.

"Young Madam, last time you said to transplant fruit trees, this old servant contacted a middleman to contact the fruit seedlings, but they didn't guarantee the survival rate."

Mrs. Feng struggled for a moment and explained the problem.If it is a small seedling, it is simple, but the young lady requires that it will bear fruit this year. It is not easy to find such a seedling. I am afraid that after transplanting, the soil in the house is not suitable, and it will eventually die.

"Don't worry about it, I can do it myself."

There are a few inconspicuous fruit trees in the space, such as apricots, pears, and blueberries that are special in the north. I can grow some in my yard, and I can eat enough for myself. Irrigate with spiritual spring water, and they will surely bloom and bear fruit in the same year.

There is a pond at the back, and water lilies are raised in the pond. Because the pond is stagnant water, the silt inside needs to be cleaned regularly, and some fresh water should be added to it, otherwise mosquitoes are easy to attract in summer, and the silt is also the best fertilizer, which is transported to Zhuangzi. Fertile land, don't let it go to waste.

During the time the two were talking, Qingli had already checked the account books. Now it is the early stage of employing people, and everything has to be handled by her. Once she is on the right track, she can be a hands-off shopkeeper, and the servants in the house perform their duties. Look for their own stewards, and when the stewards are undecided, ask her for instructions.

After Mrs. Feng went down, Mrs. Shi, who had been waiting for a long time, was in charge of the kitchen.Qingli focused on hygiene issues, she will check irregularly.Especially in summer, there should be no leftovers in the house, those leftovers will turn rancid in one afternoon, and if the master doesn't eat them for the servants, it will easily cause stomach upset.

At this time, they are all on the first floor, and there are no modern high-rise buildings. The sanitation of the kitchen is the top priority. Uncooked meat and raw meat need to be stored in the refrigerator. In the rest of the kitchen, there is nothing left except seasoning. .

Once the parents-in-law leave, there will be only Qingli as the master in the house. At that time, the management method of the old family will still be used. What the master eats, the servants will also eat. You can control enough, but extravagance and waste are prohibited. Not enough, the steward in the kitchen gave money to buy some steamed buns and rolls. If the family didn’t control the portion well, if there was any leftover, it would be sent to some poor people, or to the ruined temple outside the city, where there are people who lack food and clothing. beggar.

Regarding the purchase of rice and noodles for the kitchen, Qingli told the mother-in-law to go directly to her own mansion to get them. There is enough stock there. You can grow some green vegetables at the mansion.

There are a total of three courtyards, Wenshi spent money to buy about thirty servants, there are servants, porters, and tea servants in the front yard, and maids and maids in the back. There are not many people in such a courtyard. It's quite big, and almost all the staff are dispatched to clean it every day.

Except for a few large areas, managing the warehouse is a more complicated job.There are several storerooms at home, some of which contain utensils, and they are all relatively valuable antique vases. If someone comes to visit, the storeroom will be used when the room needs to be furnished, and people need to watch and count from time to time on weekdays. People management, so to a certain extent can reduce the loss.

This is a relatively popular job, and Qingli handed it over to Nanny Yu to let everyone see Nanny Yu's status clearly. She is equivalent to the housekeeper of the inner courtyard in the house. Sometimes she is not around, and Nanny Yu can also make decisions.

After the division of labor was clarified, the efficiency has also improved a lot. Madam Yu said that the wives of other rich families start to handle housework after breakfast and finish at noon. It was less than half an hour.

The rain outside tended to become more and more urgent. Qingli stood up, moved her stiff waist, and stood at the door. There were several pots of pure white jasmine flowers on both sides of the veranda. Recently, Qingli was a little obsessed with this elegant fragrance. The rain is like a curtain, washing the cobblestone Pucheng path at the door so that it is spotless.

The blue brick road can reflect the atmospheric characteristics of the houses in the Northland. For some reason, Wen doesn't like it. Instead, he imitates the house in Mojia Village. Walking on this road is equivalent to helping the soles of the feet to have a massage, which can relax the body.
