The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 218 Happy Event ([-])

Datang's younger sister is really tough enough!

After listening to Ah Ming's narration, Xiao Nan sighed sincerely.

However, Xiao Nan had a lot to worry about, and he could only gossip about it. After sending Ah Ming away, she called Yuzan.

"How is it? Have you investigated the situation of Mr. Lang's three colleagues?"

Liu Han did not follow Cui Da into Dali Temple, Xiao Nan had already considered helping Cui Da find a 'good teacher and helpful friend'.It turned out that her plan was to choose one of Xiao's nephews and nephews to be placed in Dali Temple, but later she felt that it was too straightforward. Cui Da might also be wary of Xiao's surname in her heart. Suspicions of protecting one's own family.

Xiao Nan was worried about choosing a child from another family, after all not all children from a family could be as outstanding as Liu Han.

If the placement is not appropriate, then we can only find available talents among Cui Da's colleagues.

Xiao Nan did this not because he wanted to find someone to monitor or spy on Cui Da, but because Liu Han's success was placed there.

Think about what kind of virtue Cui Da was before Liu Han came, and then look at how Cui Da has changed now, and what kind of virtue Cui Da has become after hooking up with Wei Yuan... Xiao Nan absolutely believes in the influence of a good friend on Cui Da .

"Back to the princess, the investigation is clear. There are three lords at the same level as the lord. The oldest is Wang Ziqian, Wang langjun. He is also a son of a family. Fan Yang Lu's daughter, this gentleman is open-minded by nature, generous and generous, likes lively communication, and has a good relationship with the lords of the yamen."

Yuhan took out a scroll, unfolded it, and whispered back.

"What about morality? Has there been any bad rumors about him?"

She doesn't care if it's from a family or not, and she doesn't care if she is generous or not. What she values ​​is character and rules.

"Moral conduct is excellent. Wang Lang has been an official for more than ten years, and there has never been any indecent incident. Wang Lang respects his wife very much. There are only two concubines in his family, and these two concubines have nothing to do. It turns out that Wang Lang's children are all born of his wife. Wang Lang's wife Lu Shi is very polite, filial to Weng Gu, and takes good care of Xiao Lang (referring to the uncle) and the little lady (that is, the sister-in-law)..."

Yuzan's investigation is very detailed, even the fact that Wang's Xiaolang was infatuated with the Jiaofang girl, and was punished and educated by his stern sister-in-law.

"Well, in this way, Mrs. Lu is a very proper person?" Not only is she proper, she can be regarded as a model of a good wife and mother, from old to young, from top to bottom, from inside to outside, she managed the Wang family well. Well-organized, the standard mistress raised by a typical aristocratic family.

Xiao Nan admired in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, and continued to ask: "What about the other two gentlemen? How are they doing?"

Two days ago, Cui Da delivered small dishes to the homes of all the colleagues in Dali Temple. The executor was Xiao Nan. When she ordered people to deliver the dishes, she also specially ordered her servants to carefully investigate the conditions of these gentlemen's homes.

The focus is on Cui Da's real colleagues, Wang, Chen, and Ma.

Now that Wang Lang is finished, it's Chen and Ma's turn.

Yuzan responded, and continued: "Chen Langjun is three years older than Langjun, and he is also a gentleman who has passed the examination of Jinshi. However, his family is just a poor family with a few hundred hectares of fertile land. It's just three generations of students..." Not even a farming and studying family, a typical poor family.

"Well, why do I feel that this Chen Lang is a little arrogant?"

The pride of an aristocratic family is different from the pride of a poor family. The pride of a noble family comes from the ancestors, and it is the arrogance exuded from the bones; while the pride of the poor family often has inferiority complex, which is a kind of extremely contradictory pride.

To be honest, Xiao Nan doesn't like the arrogance deliberately feigned because of low self-esteem, it's also pride, she appreciates the pride that has the capital of pride.

Therefore, Xiao Nan has reservations about this Chen Yafu.

Yuzan nodded, and said with a smile: "The children of the poor family have a little temper."

Seeing that Xiao Nan didn't ask about Chen Yafu's family situation, Yuhan knew that the princess had already passed this person, so she hurriedly changed the subject and began to introduce Ma Jun.

Xiao Nan started to shake his head halfway through listening. Compared to Chen Yafu, this Ma Jun is more mediocre. Anyway, Chen Yafu still has the drive of a young man, but this Ma Lang is just dawdling in the yamen.

It is estimated that Ma Jun is also aware of his ability. With his qualifications and family background, the sixth-rank Beijing official is already at the peak, and there is no possibility of promotion.

Such a person will not and dare not make big mistakes, but there must be many small mistakes.

Taking the scroll in Yuzan's hand, Xiao Nan read it carefully again, and finally pointed to the names of Wang Ziqian and Lu Shi, and made a decision in his heart: "What hobbies does this Lu Shi usually have? Do noble ladies have more contacts?"

Yuzan thought for a while, and said: "The servant girl just vaguely heard from the people below that Mrs. Lu likes Shuanglu, and most of the people she usually associates with are noble ladies from aristocratic families."

OK, I understand, this is a common problem of aristocratic families, they look down on honorable and poor families, it is really the Li family.They only socialize in their own small circle on weekdays, and only invite family wives in the circle for banquets.

However, we are also an aristocratic family, moreover a Dingjia aristocratic family, so we are absolutely qualified to participate in Lu's small circle.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nan nodded with a smile, "Very well, put this away, and let people ask more about the interests and hobbies of the officials and family members of Dali Temple, and then bind it into a booklet, which will be useful to me in the future."

It was not the first time for Yuzan to help Xiao Nan sort out the materials, she replied clearly: "Yes, I understand."

At this time, the servant girl outside the door said: "Lady, Yu Zhu and Tie Niangzi are here."

Xiao Nan waved his hand to let Yuhan back down, and then raised his voice, "Let them in!"

Not long after, Yu Zhu and Tie Niangzi came to the main hall one after the other, bowed and saluted and then knelt down.

"Miss, today's affairs have been dealt with, slave—"

Iron Lady opened her mouth first, she took out a pamphlet, and was going to report to Xiao Nan one by one what she had done in the morning.

Xiao Nan waved his hand and interrupted: "No need, I have already said that there are rules set by the old lady on how to deal with family affairs. If there are no rules, there are also established rules from previous years. You just need to follow the rules. As long as you follow the rules and follow the rules, you don't need to report everything to me." She is not Wang Xifeng, and she has no love for the housekeeper's prestige.

Moreover, it's not that Xiao Nan is touting the old lady, she is indeed powerful, the rules and regulations formulated in the early years, after five or sixty years of perfection, are now perfect.

Of course, from the perspective of a time-traveling woman, the old lady's way of running a family is similar to the management system of later generations of companies.

During the period, the Four Divisions and Six Bureaus of the Ming Dynasty were borrowed, and all the errands of Rongshoutang were divided into four divisions and six rooms: the fourth divisions were the account division, the kitchen division, the purchasing division and the inspection division, and the six divisions were the sewing room, the flower and bird room, Warehouse, torture room, starch washing room and car and sedan room.

In addition to the four divisions and the six divisions, there are several other places: such as the affairs department, the sundries department, the tea and wine department, and so on.

There are housekeepers above the four divisions and six houses. The housekeepers are all the confidantes of the mistress. Under normal circumstances, there are two stewards. One is responsible for handling affairs, and the other is responsible for managing the servants. The two are directly responsible to the mistress.

There is no affiliation relationship between the department, room, and department. There is a dedicated person in charge of each errand, and there are two managers in each place. If the official goes out for something, or is sick or emotional, the deputy will directly take over. Never. Delay something wrong.Where something went wrong, the person responsible was directly identified. After the mistake was clarified, the person involved was punished according to family rules, and the principal and deputy managers were doubled.

The maids and servants in each place go to work in different shifts, hand over the work before going to work, and each person is responsible for one errand, there will never be a situation where light errands get together and heavy work is left unattended. Can quickly find out who is right and who is wrong.

Responsibility is assigned to the person and the responsibility is on duty. When and which maid is not on the post, she will be sent directly to the punishment room. After identifying the fault, the lady in charge will punish her directly, so as to prevent the situation where the big maid bullies the little maid and the old lady abuses the young lady.

The inner and outer courtyards of the family are managed separately, and the accountants and storehouses are directly responsible to the head of the house, and are not under the control of the housekeeper.

In addition to these specific trivial matters, there is also a separate supervisory department, which is responsible for supervising the affairs of various places, and those who make mistakes will be directly handed over to the punishment lady for punishment.

Of course, the Supervision Department is also responsible for supervising the execution room. If there is something wrong with the lady in charge, it will be sent directly to the mistress, or beaten or punished, and the mistress will deal with it.

As for more fines and less fines, beatings or fines, there are clear regulations in the housework rules.

Following a set of procedures, the housewife only needs to arrange the main management personnel, and for other things, everyone can follow the rules.

As for Xiao Nan, there are all kinds of talents that the eldest princess helped her equip with her. She only needs to divide the housekeeping rights into several shares and give them to the four maids to help her with trivial matters.

The two wet nurses helped Xiao Nan play the role of supervisor. Once they found any problem with any department, room or place, they would report directly to Xiao Nan.

In this way, Xiao Nan doesn't have to spend a lot of time listening to such trivial matters as how much fish the lady in charge bought today, and how much money the tea and wine will cost tomorrow.

In Xiao Nan's words, "Leave the small things to you, and ask me about the big things."

As for management, it's about focusing on the big and letting go of the small. If she takes care of all the needles and threads, she probably won't have time to take care of her daughter and train her husband.

"The lady trusts us, but we dare not lie to the lady."

Of course, Iron Lady heard Xiao Nan say similar things several times, but she is a housekeeper, not a mistress, so she still has the attitude she should have.

"Yes, by the way, my lady, the eldest princess brought you fruits and vegetables again today, should these still be sent to the North courtyard?"

Compared with Iron Lady's formality, Yuzhu is a bit more casual. She understands her master's temper.After thinking about it, Yuzhu casually found something to 'report'.

"Well, let's send it to Mr. Xiao Lang."

"My lady is really generous and caring. It is truly a blessing for Mr. Xiao Lang to have you as his mother."

The Iron Lady immediately flattered her.

The master and servant exchanged a few more pleasantries, and the iron lady saw that the time was almost the same as the time taken for 'the matter', so she got up and backed out.

Yuzhu was kept by Xiao Nan.

"What else did the people sent by Auntie say? By the way, Auntie's delivery date is approaching, is she in good health?"

Counting the days, the eldest princess' belly is already seven or eight months old, and in a few months, the baby will be born...
