Chapter 959

In Lanyue Building, still as when she left, she sat back in her original position, briefly told the Li family and Tong Jia's family about Chen Fu's father-in-law coming over to ask her son, and then glanced at the big Li family next to her who was full of inquiry, and then put her attention back to the stage.

In fact, she doesn't particularly like to listen to operas, firstly, because she doesn't understand much, and secondly, she is used to watching vernacular TV dramas and movies with various special effects, and then let her sink down to appreciate opera, which is really difficult for some strong people, but she doesn't like it, in this era when there are not too many leisure activities, she can only reluctantly accept it, no matter if she can understand the lyrics, no matter if she can appreciate those exquisite appearances, let alone whether she is professional or not, anyway, it's a pleasure.

However, interesting leisure activities also need to be accompanied by like-minded true friends, when there are love rivals sitting around, even if the performance on the stage is wonderful, it is estimated that few people can cheer up, at least Erfu is like this, but unfortunately even if she wants to invite other women from various provinces to come over to listen to the music and watch the play, those women who are obedient to their husbands will definitely not wait for the door of her fourth master's mansion at this point in time.

Mingzhe protects himself, this is definitely the most familiar routine of all officialdom.

Erfu, who knows this very well, will not blame those 'girlfriends' for being unreliable, but in the end she was swept away, she sat happily for half an hour in the Lanyue Building, and then found an excuse to return to the main courtyard, she would rather go back to deal with those annoying people's chores, and never waste time with these rivals with a smirk on her face.

Back in the main courtyard, Aunt Yuxiu came over with a stack of account books.

Spring is blooming, it should be the most suitable time to go out of the city, she loves to be at ease with the Fu Jin in dealing with the general affairs, the tenants on the village are also busy farming on the ridges, this year the steward of the village does not know what to think, but they are asked to change the previous way of planting, although the owner promised to reduce the tenant rent after the autumn by one percent, but these old and simple tenants still feel unstable in their hearts, which also causes the accounts on the Erfu side to be more difficult to deal with, because the steward of the village does not know what the psychology is, and actually pushes these troublesome things to the house。

"This steward was arranged by the Wulanala clan when Fujin was alive!" So after listening to Aunt Yuxiu's reply, Erfu's face turned cold and asked.

And so it is. Aunt Yuxiu did not hide her origin for the steward of Zhuangshang, and handed the prepared booklet to Erfu, she had expected that this matter would come back, and Erfu would definitely ask about it, so she had already sorted out the background experience of several stewards, and she did not take out this kind of thing to annoy Erfu before, but because she was thinking about Erfu's side, she probably didn't have the heart to deal with these complicated affairs.

I have to say that the Wulanala clan's methods of governing the family are really good.

Since the Wulanala clan accompanied the fourth master out of the palace to build a mansion, he has been working hard to grasp all the properties in his hands, first set aside a few stewards arranged by the Internal Affairs Office, helped the steward who was loyal to her to take the position, and then completely snatched the middle feed from the hands of the fourth master's grandmother and grandmother, and finally even those inconspicuous village heads were replaced by their own people.

Before, Erfu remarried the fourth master's mansion, although she became the rightful hostess of the house, but considering that the situation in the house has gradually stabilized, the housekeepers everywhere are still a little discerning, and they don't want to take advantage of the opportunity to empty her new master, so she didn't replace the old people left by the Wulanala clan, but now the head of the Zhuangzi outside takes the initiative to find trouble, she naturally will not be soft, first, she doesn't like the slaves under her to bully, and secondly, she doesn't want anyone to trouble her in the same way, this is not Erfu's worries, but the lessons she has summed up from her failures again and again.

Erff took the booklet and flipped through it casually, knowing that Aunt Yuxiu had already guessed her thoughts, so she didn't continue to hide it, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and asked with a smile: "The grain over there has been distributed!"

"Yes, although the tenants do not understand the change of your planting method, they have already received grain and vegetable seeds from the head of the village, and have begun to cultivate, after all, every day in this spring is very important to the tenants, and they dare not delay their work. Aunt Yuxiu replied respectfully.

"That's good.

That is to say, even if there is a problem on the head of the village, it will not affect the income of the village this year, and when it is here next year, those tenants will get used to the new head of the village.

I asked Bai Jiao to go to the Zhuangzi before, and select the right person to replace the vacant position, there should be some eyebrows, and it will be sent to you later, these things, you need to worry more. Hearing that the village had begun to farm, the smile in Erfu's eyes was a little heavier, she raised her hand slightly, and motioned to Shilan to send the account book sent by Aunt Yuxiu to the study, and was silent for a moment, before she said a sentence that was enough to put more than a dozen families in a desperate situation.

Different from tenants who rent land to cultivate and beg for a living, the head of the village has signed a deed of sale to the house slaves in the house, once the house slaves lose the fat shortage of the head of the village, the life of the family will not be easy.

Because if it weren't for the distrust of the master, he would never be easily exempted from a person's errand.

But the errand of the head of the village is not quite the same as other errands, as the head of the village in the village, as long as there is no time for the owner to live in the past, it is like a local emperor, those tenants do not dare to offend the head of the village, and under such a premise, the wife and children of the head of the village are rarely in the house as slaves, so the head of the village loses the errand, and the young and old of the family are really going to have no way to live.

Of course, it is not as absolute as speculated, because which head of the village will not be poor and white, these little people seem to be inferior to the house, but the means of the deficit are easier than all people, and it is not easy to be noticed, collect the red envelopes sent by the tenants, and report the income of the village to a few points less, the tenants have a better life, but also fattened their purses, the only person who loses money is the owner of the house, who makes the field produce is based on the heavens, even if it is the best crop, it is not sure how much grain can be produced in a piece of land。

It is precisely because of this that the people who can sit in the position of the head of the village are all cronies of the owner.

"As for these people who have been replaced, let's find some inconspicuous positions and arrange them, and if any of them don't want to serve in the mansion anymore, let them redeem themselves and leave the mansion!" But Erph is a good-hearted person, and she doesn't have to watch these people come to her and wagged their tails and beg for mercy, or watch these people being ostracized everywhere, so she immediately ordered that it could be regarded as a master-servant friendship.

Aunt Yuxiu should have withdrawn, and Erfu also got up and went to the study, concentrating on verifying the accounts.

One of the most important handover errands is to clean up the accounts.

In order not to add unnecessary trouble to the replacement candidate, she, as the mistress of the house, naturally wants to give the later Zhuang Tou a cleanest foundation, these accounts are carefully calculated by the front yard account room, and the discrepancies have been marked out by Mr. Accounts, otherwise Erfu is alone, she is with three heads and six arms, and there is no way to do everything.

She slowly looked through the accounts one by one, and saw that Mr. Bookkeeper had already counted clearly, so she did not do any more useless work and re-audited, but picked up the account book that summarized the deficits everywhere, and instructed Shilan to use a seal on every page of the account book, and explained: "Later, after using the seal, I will send this account book back to Aunt Yuxiu, and ask her to order someone to recover the deficits everywhere, and tell Aunt Yuxiu that if those people refuse to spit out the stolen money that they have eaten in their stomachs, then they will be sent to Shuntianfu and disposed of as fugitive slaves." ”

After saying that, she got up and walked to the side and walked across the courtyard.

At the beginning, in order to make it easier for Erfu to grasp the middle feed, the fourth master moved all the housekeepers and grandmothers in the house to the side of the main courtyard, since she is now going to move those villages, she also has to ring the alarm bell for these housekeepers, so as not to be greedy for these housekeepers, and she also bothered to arrange for newcomers to take over their errands, adding trouble to her.

There are four housekeepers in the house, all of whom are old men who have been on errands in the house since the beginning of the mansion, among which Qin Mama, who is in charge of chores and cooperates with Aunt Yuxiu to take charge of the treasury of the public middle school, is the closest to the Wulanala clan, which is also the first stop for Erfu to cross the hospital.

As the most beautiful housekeeper in the house except Aunt Yuxiu, she lives in the west wing of the courtyard, in a three-room wing room, although the layout is not decent, but the furniture is complete, especially the rosewood square table placed outside, it is definitely a particular thing, but it is not too extravagant to be placed in the housekeeper's room, who makes the square table everywhere is very good, but it is missing a corner.

Mama Qin is a round-faced and chubby forty-year-old woman, with long hair as bright as black satin and a standard bun, only a pair of plain silver hairpins between the hairpins, wearing a dark brown short coat, wearing a pair of dark black pants on the lower body, and a pair of the most ordinary thick-soled embroidered shoes under her feet.

"The old slave didn't know that Fu Jin was coming, and he couldn't greet him, so he asked Fu Jin to forgive his sins. Mama Qin, who was originally running errands outside and below, counted the accounts and matched cards, and when she saw Erfu coming in, she hurriedly got up from her seat and said with a blessing.

"Get up, I'm just going to come and see you guys, don't make such a fuss. Erfu smiled and raised her hand, sat on the official hat chair where Mama Qin had sit, she pointed to the embroidery pier below, motioned for Mama Qin to sit down and reply, and said softly.

When Mama Qin heard this, she saluted again, and then sat down half-bowed.

Seeing this, Erfu smiled imperceptibly, she didn't know why she felt that such an ordinary woman was in line with her eyes, maybe it was because this Mama Qin had a face similar to her modern mother.

The more time she has been in this era, the more she can't tell who she is, whether she is Su Linger or Guargalfe, maybe the experiences of her modern life in her mind are her dreams, or maybe she is dreaming now...... But no matter what, she still longs to see her modern parents again, even if she sees Mama Qin, who is a little similar to her modern mother, she still can't help but feel a little intimate.

She smiled and asked about the expenses of various places, and asked Mama Qin about the errands of the people below, and then walked to the opposite wing room as if she was fine, so that Mama Qin, who was left alone in the wing room, was stupid.

In the east wing room opposite, Mama Gui, who is in charge of the maids and servants of the head palace in the mansion, is also the same.

Mama Gui is in charge of the errand arrangements of all the palace maids and servants in the house who have not been assigned to the various courtyards, and she can be said to be the most well-informed person in the house, so Erfu came out of the main courtyard, and she has already received the news.

However, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, especially not to arouse Erfu's suspicion that she was full of eyeliner, she did not rush to Erfu to curry favor like ordinary servants, but waited in her own room.

Of course, in the end, it was the old man in the house, she was only stunned for a moment before she reacted, and bowed respectfully to Erfu, "Slave maid, please Fu Jin'an, Fu Jin is auspicious." ”

"Sit down and talk. Different from the kind attitude towards Mama Qin just now, Erfu waved her hand with a not too good-looking face, and she was already sitting on the official hat chair with a big grin, she casually asked Mama Gui to flip through the file booklet in Mama Gui's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Recently, things have been going on in our house, and those palace maids and servants under your hands are still obedient!"

"Two days ago, when there was a rumor in the palace, the people below did have some abnormal movements, but fortunately, the slaves and maids had already suppressed it. "Mama Gui didn't know Erfu's intentions, she didn't dare to ask for too much credit, and she didn't dare to take the blame on herself, everyone knew that she was arranged by the Ulanala clan to sit in the position of the housekeeper, in case this new Fujin felt that the time was right, and took advantage of this reason to pull her off the horse, so she groaned a little, and gave a decent answer very simply.

Hearing this, Erfu nodded slightly, and continued: "I heard that you ordered a staff to blame a few little girls who were working in the Huan Washroom, I don't know what those little girls have done, I need you to do it in front of the flower hall so vigorously, I have already ordered that you must not punish the servants of the palace for no reason." ”

This is also what Aunt Yuxiu came to talk about today, and she only found out.

It is said that in order to clean up the atmosphere in the house, this Gui Mama called the palace maids and servants who were not in front of the masters of the courtyards in the house, she didn't know, just forget it, since she knew, she had to ask carefully, otherwise her instructions would not become empty words.
