Chapter 172

Make sure there is no problem with the accounts.

Next, we will start to arrange for the next few days.

The woman in charge of the mansion came to the meeting hall to answer questions, ask for instructions, and take the right cards

It was so many and complicated, involving all aspects, that it was not over until dinner time.

Until tomorrow morning, we have to keep busy.

"After a busy day, everyone is tired. Big sister, ladies and gentlemen, let's call it a day and continue tomorrow. After dinner, we should go back to our rooms and have a good rest. Tomorrow must be busier than today. "

Gu Zhen said: "the second sister should also take care of herself. You have just come back from the palace and are busy with the housekeeper. I'm worried that you can't bear it

Gu Jiu pursed his lips with a smile, "thank you for your concern. You're right. I have to take good care of myself. Well, I'll go back to my room and have a rest. "

The crowd dispersed.

Gu Yue walked at the back of Gu Jiu, and then looked back at the meeting hall. Finally, he snorted and turned away.

Back to Zhilan hospital, Gu Jiu is tired to be paralyzed.

Xiaocui reported to her, "Miss, when you were busy in the Council hall this afternoon, aunt Bai came by. When the maid asked her what was the matter, she did not say it

Gu Jiu remembered that he had not seen aunt Bai for a long time.

"Aunt Bai is going to have a baby soon," she asked

According to the time, it should be born at the end of next month. But it may come earlier. "

Xiaocui said, "I heard from the women that Aunt Bai has a sharp stomach. This baby must be a boy. He also said that Aunt Bai's good days are coming. When she gives birth to a son, the master will favor her more than before. "

Gu Jiu chuckled and said with deep meaning: "my wife is really generous. She not only sent people to take good care of aunt Bai, but also gave the best food and clothing. If aunt Bai gives birth to a son, it will be wonderful. "

"The girl said the opposite." Qingzhu is a straightforward girl.

Gu Jiu smiles but does not speak.

Green plum said: "white aunt's affairs, the maid thought that the girl had better not interfere. Otherwise, if anything happens, it will be on the girl. "

Gu Jiu thought, "that's right. Xiaocui, next time aunt Bai comes again, you just send her away. I'm not happy with her. "

"I'll take orders."

……

The next morning, Gu Jiu got up early. After finishing the internal affairs, he went through the corridor from the corner gate to the Marquis house.

The Marquis was in a state of melancholy.

In a few days, Gu Mei lost a lot of weight and her eyes were black. I'm afraid I didn't sleep well these days.

When she saw Gu Jiu, she was excited, "little sister Jiu, you can come here. With your help, I can have a rest and sit down to drink."

"Sister Mei, what can I do for you? You are welcome to tell me

Gu Mei said in a hurry: "please keep my eyes on the kitchen and the tea room for me. The kitchen lady didn't try her best to make a running mat at home. She made a lot of troubles and made people laugh

Gu Jiu should come down, concerned: "Jia there is no trouble Mei sister?"

Gu Mei shook her head. "I'm fine. It's mainly the elder brother. The Jia family is very rude to him. The elder brother was accused of being in debt to his sister-in-law, and he was silent, and we were not allowed to defend him. I'm really holding back.

The elder brother-in-law's heart, white elder brother's body also should not let the dirty water. He will marry again in the future. If his reputation is bad, no good girl will marry him. Those who marry him are not in the right mind. "

Gu Mei sighed deeply.

The female elders in the family are all crying in the palace, unable to get rid of themselves.

Male elders go out early and come back late. They don't care about the affairs of the house. All their energy has been occupied by the affairs in the court.

Jia's funeral fell on Gu Mei and others.

Because of this, Jia family has a lot of words.

It's too shabby and lack of respect to criticize Hou Fu's funeral for Jia.

Gu Mei complained with Gu Jiu for a few words. Before she finished speaking, a servant girl came over.

Gu Mei leaves in a hurry. Gu Jiu takes Gu Zhen and Gu Shan to help with the kitchen and the tea room.

The kitchen of Hou's residence should be in good order. The women in the kitchen should work hard when they get a job.

However, Gu Jiu saw that it was a slow down. Some people just sit on the threshold and eat melon seeds. They don't think about the running water table. They don't have enough food and wine. Where to put aside the Houfu's face.

Gu nine tiny frown, "this is how to return a responsibility?"

No one answered her.

The wife of Hou's house doesn't need to give Gu Jiu face at all.

Or Gu Mei sent her servant girl pan chun to solve the doubts.

"I tell you, Miss Er, you've been busy since the twelfth month and have been busy until the first month. Finally, I hope to have a rest for a few days. As a result, my grandmother is gone at this time.

There is a water table in the house to entertain the guests who come to offer sacrifices. Everyone has to be busy from morning till night, and they don't even have time to breathe.There is resentment in everyone's heart. With the old lady, the ladies are not in the house. This is what it looks like. "

Gu Jiu smiles coldly, so it is.

Gu Zhen and Gu Shan are both somewhat empty. How do they manage this situation? There should be no way to manage it. Or you can deal with it.

"Second sister, sister Mei has sent us a hard job. It's not easy to do. "

Gu Shan also said, "second sister, I'd better ask sister Mei about this. Listen to sister Mei. "

Gu Jiu asked the servant girl to look forward to spring: "is everything in the kitchen and tea has the final say?"

Pan Chun said, "my wife gave the job to my girl, and my girl gave it to Xiaojiu. According to the law, small nine girl said everything about the kitchen. "

Gu Jiu nodded slightly, "so good. Bring me the kitchen account book. I don't need any other months. I just need to know how much money is left in the kitchen book this month. "

Looking forward to the spring immediately took out the card, let the little servant girl go to the cashier's room to take the account book.

Here comes the account book, and they bring the chairs and benches.

Gu Jiu in front of the kitchen woman's face, picked up the abacus to account.

The sound of the abacus was beating on the kitchen ladies. They looked at each other, unable to understand what the second girl of Gu's next door wanted to do.

Of course, Gu Jiu is quick and good-looking, which really shocked the servants of Hou's house. But it doesn't work.

The women of Hou's house still don't sell Gu Jiu's account.

After Gu Jiu finished the account, there was still a lot of silver left on the book, which was enough.

Her eyes swept from each face, "Hou's house is going to arrange a funeral for the eldest and youngest grandmothers, and the kitchen needs to prepare water seats. You are so lazy that you don't even need a reward, which makes the princes of Hou's house lose face in front of the guests.

I don't expect you to listen to me. But I'm going to ask you more. Can you do your work with your heart? "

Everyone was silent, no one paid attention to Gu Jiu's question.

Gu Jiu sneered, "good, I know your attitude. It seems that you are going to go on working at a snail's pace.

Pan Chun, holding the pair of cards, went to the book and spent one hundred Liang silver.

Qingmei, you and panchun go to Gu Yu with the silver and ask him to come forward and invite a group of cooks and helpers who can make water table for the Hou's house. Tell them the salary is negotiable.

In addition, let the purchase immediately out of the government to purchase fresh meat and vegetables. If you even go slow in purchasing, you can tell him directly that you don't want to do it in the future. If you don't do anything with your salary, you'll be a waste. "

"Why do you replace us from the outside?"

"Who are you?"

"This is Hou's house, not Gu's. Miss Jiu, look at the occasion. "

The cooks of Hou's house all cried out and accused Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu sneered, "Wang Yi."

"There you are

Gu Jiu won't be polite to all the people in the kitchen, "drive these people who don't work out to me. If anyone dares to resist, give me a call, don't give them face. If anyone complains, I will not stop him. "

Wang Yi rolled up his sleeves and rushed up to hit people.

Kitchen yard, a time of wailing. Scold to scold, cry to cry, make no appearance.

The green plum leaves looking forward to spring and goes to the cashier's office to pay for the money. Then go to the front yard to find Gu Yu and ask him to help him out. Please be the cook and helper of the water mat.

Gu Yu readily agreed, "it's simple. In my family, many people support their families by making dinners for big families. You wait. I'll invite you in person, and I'll bring them in an hour

"Thank you very much, master Gu Yu. My girl's problem has been solved Green plum looks grateful.

Gu Yu said, "this is nothing. But sister Gu Jiu surprised me that I could even think of inviting someone to be a running mat from outside. It's a good idea. People invited from outside can earn as much money as they do. It's much easier to use than the cook in the Marquis house. "

Gu Yu borrowed the horses from Hou's house and went out to invite people.

Green plum goes to report.

Gu Zhen and Gu Shan watched the cook of Hou's house be thrown out of the gate, they were very worried.

It doesn't matter, sister? After all, this is Hou's residence. What should we do if the hall aunts blame them? "

Gu Jiu looked calm and said, "the four sisters don't need to worry. If aunts in the lobby investigate this matter, I will be held responsible, and you will not be implicated."

Gu Shan looked embarrassed and said, "the second sister misunderstood me. I didn't mean that. I want to say, after all, this is not my own home, is it right to give the servants of the Marquis a decent

Gu Jiu coldly smiles, "gave them dignity, which who gave us dignity, to the dead hall sister-in-law decency?

When the old lady in the hall is gone, the funeral will catch up with the national funeral. People are full of resentment because they have worked hard for a few days, as if someone owed them several hundred Liang silver.

I don't like to look at their faces, and they don't need to look at my face. It's just that they ask the cook to make a running mat from the outside and make money every day. Everyone has both money and goods. Things are simple and clear, and all kinds of troubles are saved. ""Well, is this really good?" Gu Shan was worried.

I have never heard that when a Hou's office runs a water mat, it invites a cook from outside. That's a shame.

It's like telling the whole world that they don't have enough money and can't afford enough cooks, so they can only ask the cook for help when making a banquet.

It's a shame.

However, Gu Jiu doesn't think so.

Gu Jiu is very pragmatic. What face is not face, have already lost face in front of guests, where there is face to speak of.

At this time, we can't care about face. It's important to make the table and let the guests stop complaining.

The decency of the servants, the face of the Marquis, and being an outsider, it's hard to interfere too much, and so on.

It's just a waste of time to tangle those things. Seeing that there are only two hours left from noon, when there is no food and wine on the table, that is the real shame.

Gu Zhen doesn't care, but she feels that Gu Jiu is quick and efficient in dealing with things. She has to study hard.

Gu Shan tangled for a while, see can't persuade Gu Jiu, can only sigh, give up.

Hope spring finally got empty and rushed to Gu Mei to report.

"No, girl. Xiaojiu girl took a pair of cards and spent a hundred liang of silver from the cashier's room, and asked master Gu Yu to invite cooks and helpers from outside. She will also, will, all the kitchen people, even the kitchen maid and helper are all out. They say that since they are not willing to work hard, they all go away. The cooks swearing and complaining. What are you going to do now, girl? "

Gu Qi and Gu Ying both frowned.

"Why didn't you inform us before you did something. Is it OK to hire cooks and helpers from outside? It's also a trouble for the cooks to come after you

Gu Mei said calmly, "there's nothing wrong with it. Those women in the kitchen, I have been looking for a chance to clean them up.

One by one, they are old people in the government, and they don't pay attention to us at all. Have they ever heard anything we say?

Although Xiaojiu's method is a little fierce, I think it's very good. It's time to get rid of them like this.

It's just that I'm stupid. I didn't expect to hire cooks and helpers from outside.

Otherwise, I will do it yesterday. In this way, I don't have to rush there. "

Gu Qi said: "since the big sister thinks it's OK, I'll do it according to my sister's idea. When they come back, we will explain to the old lady in person. If the old lady wants to blame us, just blame us. You can't anger younger sister Jiu. "

Gu Mei nodded, "it should be so."

Gu Ying also said: "little sister Jiu's method has inspired me. The servants in the mansion saw that the elders were not in the house, and they all went to work in a slack manner, and did not pay attention to us.

Simply let the servant girls go out to publicize the whole government and warn them. If they dare to slack off, they will end up like the kitchen, and they will all be driven out.

I'd rather take some money and ask for help from Gu Fu next door, rather than use them. Tell them to be shameless. "

Gu Mei nodded, "this method is good. The servants in the mansion should really knock it. When I see the old lady and my mother, I will tell them that it's time to let a group of servants out of the house. Otherwise, the slaves will deceive the Lord, and they will treat themselves as more respectable than the master of the marquis. "

Gu Jiu doesn't know that his own actions have drawn a lot of hatred for her.

Soon, there will be a storm to clean up the servants.

Gu Yu was quick in his work. Without an hour, he invited five cooks and a dozen helpers.

Fresh meat and vegetables are also bought back.

The cooks work together to make hot dishes, cold dishes, steamed dishes

Because of the tight time, the first batch of guests are about to serve the table. They can only pick up some simple dishes and serve them to the table.

Other time-consuming and laborious dishes can only be made at night or tomorrow.

Gu Jiu let Gu Zhen stare at the kitchen, leaving bamboo in the kitchen accounting.

She and Gu Shan went to inspect the tea room.

The tea maids are more attentive than those in the kitchen.

Seeing Gu Jiu one by one, they all put their heads down to work, quick and thoughtful. The tea in the guest's cup is always full and warm.

There is no case that the guests have finished drinking the tea and no one has been drinking water for half a day.

Also did not appear the guest tea is cold, but no one came forward to change a cup of tea.

The tea maids were considerate and considerate. They made a good face for the marquis.

Gu Jiu nods secretly, and she says, the servants of Hou's house are well-trained. How can the masters not stay at home, and all of them are slacking off.

But she did not know that the tea maids were so quick and attentive that they had a great deal to do with her in the kitchen.

This will Houfu all over the house, Gu Jiu in the kitchen, how to teach dozens of people in the kitchen. How the kitchen people lose face and so on.Some people even say that Gu Jiu has a lot of strength. Some cooks are not convinced and make a lot of noise. Gu Jiu swings his arm and throws people out of the wall.

Fortunately, this rumor did not reach Gu Jiu's ears.

If Gu Jiu knows that she is said to be a strong man, she must find out this person and ravage her a hundred times.

I'm a weak girl. How can I stigmatize her as a strong man.
