Chapter 238 (2/2)
Shiqin several people lowered their heads and exchanged a look at each other. They could not figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.
Why should they teach green plum and green bamboo?
But when the lady spoke, they could not refuse.
”The lady thinks highly of us, and the maids and maids are willing to.”
Green plum secretly ridicules, madam gives you three points of color, really dare to open dye shop.
Mother Fang shook her eyes and reminded the green plum not to be impatient, not to damage the lady's affairs.
Green plum quickly lowered her head, did not reveal the slightest idea in her heart.
Gu Jiu laughed, ”you are all excellent. Come on, this is a reward for you, one for each one. Don't despise it. ”
”Madame will give away the gifts from the maids and maids. How dare the maids dislike them?”
Gu Jiu said with a smile: ”the young master will come back later tonight. You can arrange it by yourself. I'll call you when you need something
”I will listen to your wife.”
Eight servant girls filed out of the room.
Gu Jiushu took a breath and saw so many people, it was not an easy thing.
She leaned against the soft collapse and asked, ”mother Fang, what do you think of those servant girls?”
Mother Fang bowed down and said, ”everyone thinks highly of himself, and the maid's body is young lady's heart. Relying on the respectability of serving the young master, I'm not willing to go down. ”
Gu Jiu sneered and said, ”if they are waiting on me, I don't mind giving them a chance to climb high. But since they are waiting on the childe's side, it is another matter. ”
This year, and Jiang Yan general idea of a lot of maid.But not every servant girl is as Frank as Jiang Yan.
Most people are duplicity. The mouth says dare not, but in the heart head is doing all sorts of abacus.
Gu Jiu doesn't hate those big servant girls, but if you dare to touch her interests and rob a man with her, don't blame her for her impoliteness.
She and Liu Zhao will have children sooner or later. She will never allow anyone to undermine the interests of children and threaten their status.
In a word, if those servant girls keep their own way, Gu Jiu naturally can tolerate them.
If the heart is too much, Gu nine also don't mind to start personally, send those servant girls out.
At the beginning, she was able to send peach blossom, but now she can also send off the servant girl beside Liu Zhao.
Qingmei was not angry. ”I looked at them, and they all had a foxy face. All of them were not willing to be obedient. Madame has to guard against it. ”
Gu Jiu ha ha ha a smile, ”really not very proper. You have more contact with Qingzhu, Xiaocui and the three of you. When they get familiar with you, they will be less prepared for you. ”
”I know. I'm sure you'll get along well with them
In the evening, Gu Jiu left the door for Liu Zhao.
However, when she fell asleep, Liu Zhao never came back.
When I wake up and touch the bed, it's already cold.
Look at the traces on the bed, it is clear that someone has slept.
Gu Jiu rubs his eyebrows. Is Liu Zhao back or not.
She rang the bell and a few maids came in to wait on her.
Gu Jiu asked, ”did you come back last night?”
Green plum nodded, ”come back. I came back at midnight and went out again before dawn. ”
Gu Jiu said.
Then he asked, ”what did you say?”
”The young master told the servants not to disturb his wife's rest. I also told my wife to eat well and eat more to grow meat. ”
Gu jiuzuozi.
Does Liu Zhao really want to raise her as a pig?
Is it possible to slaughter and eat after fattening.
Gu Jiu asked again, ”did you say anything else?”
”Green plum nods,” said the young master. He will be busy these days, leaving early and returning late every day. Let the lady not wait for him
Gu Jiu knows.
Either something happened in the court or something happened in private.
After breakfast, Gu Jiu goes to Chunhe hall to say hello to the princess.
By the time she arrived, Ouyang Fu, the second lady, had already arrived.
”The second younger brother and younger sister come so early?”
Ouyang Fu got up and said, ”I've met my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law has come very early
Gu Jiu whispered with a smile, ”I'm new here. I don't know what the princess likes? Can you teach me
Ouyang Fu, the second lady, nodded and said in a low voice, ”Princess and empress, of course, I like everyone to follow her. For those who are against her, that is a deep hatred. In addition, the princess likes luxury, not simplicity. ”
With these two points, Gu Jiu can basically guess the princess's principles.
At this time, the fourth lady Xiao qin'er also arrived.
As for the third Madame, because she was ill, she was afraid that she would be ill. She did not show up these days.
The fifth and the sixth were not married.
There are also three unmarried girls in the mansion. They went into the palace together yesterday and performed filial piety in front of lady Shufei. They have to live until the new year.
The three of them, as daughters in law, came not only to see you well, but also to reply.
Now Ouyang Fu and Xiao qin'er are in charge of the housekeeper. They can handle the trivial matters themselves. Major events must be reported to Princess PEI for decision.
The three of them arrived in Qi, and then two side concubines, beauties and talented people also came to Chunhe hall to greet them.
When they arrived, the waiter sang and drank. Princess Pei took her servant girl's hand and walked out.
They all got up and went forward to salute and pay homage to the princess
”Sit down and talk. Family, don't pay attention to these empty gifts. ”
Pei sat down on the throne.
Gu Jiu sits at the bottom left, with Xiao qin'er and Ouyang Fu beside him.
Opposite her, there are Shen side imperial concubine, Luo side imperial concubine and others.
Pei's first glance into the door, the first time to please Gu Jiu.
She asked: ”the eldest daughter-in-law, yesterday back home, how is the family?”
Gu Jiu slightly bowed, ”reply to my mother's concubine, everything is good in Gu's house. The eldest lady of Hou's house also asked her daughter-in-law to greet her mother and concubine on her behalf. ”
Pei said, ”I know little Wei Shi. When we were young, we were good friends. Is she OK? ”
Gu nine nods, ”very good.”
Pei's words today, with a pleasant face, did not criticize Gu Jiu's fault.
Gu Jiu guessed that a few days ago, it was because the princess was a little girl, so she had a bad temper.Pei did not pay too much attention to Gu Jiu, but asked Xiao qin'er, the assistant manager.
Xiao qin'er is sitting in a critical position. ”I'd like to report to my mother's concubine. Every village, shop and several business lines in the South have already sent the income of this year to the government. This is the ledger. ”
It turned out that Xiao qin'er had been prepared and knew that Pei was going to ask about the accounts, so he even brought the account books.
Gu Jiu picks eyebrows, the public account book, the account room is not in the case, Xiao qin'er even brings the account book out privately. We are not afraid that someone will tamper with the account books and enrich their own pockets.
Maybe she thought too much. The cashier should have made several books.
Pei took over the account book and looked through the pages.
Seeing the final summary, Pei frowned.
”But less than last year?” she asked
Xiao qin'er bowed down and said, ”it's 20% less than last year to report back to the mother's concubine.”
”Why so much less? There has been no natural disaster this year. How can it be so? ”
Pei's income is obviously less than 20%.
She and Ning Wang both like luxury and spend a lot of money a year.
If there are so many people in the palace, the income will be reduced, which means that the cost will be reduced by 20% next year.
Although not cut to her head, but Pei is still unhappy.
If the income is less, it means that the money she has moved into the private Treasury will also decrease. How can she be happy.
Xiao qin'er said in a low voice: ”report back to the mother's concubine, and the daughter-in-law is not very clear. It's better to call the cashier to ask. ”
Pei snorted coldly and was dissatisfied with Xiao qin'er.
With the account book, but do not know why this year's income is less than last year, it shows that the homework has not been home.
At this time, Ouyang Fu, the second wife, said, ”I'd like to present my mother's concubine, but my daughter-in-law knows something about it.”
”Say it
