The Landlord And His Wife - Chapter 183
Liu Xuer said that she was thirsty, smiled and took a cup of tea, and then continued: “Everyone in our family has money every month, and your parents also have it, for example Say five taels a month, my brothers and sisters three taels a month, I’ll do it for two taels a month, and sister-in-law, you see whether it’s two taels a month or three taels a month, anyway, the eldest brother will definitely give her flowers. In this way, whoever wants to buy We have money we can use ourselves. As for the servants, we also give monthly money. Although they are sold here, they are also human and need it. Use your own things. Give each of them 500 pennies a month, and they also have hope. If they save enough money, they can redeem themselves and live. What do you think?”
He made the calculations, and said in surprise: “This month, I will go out for thirty taels!”
Liu Xuer said with a smile: “This is the money that must be paid, just like buying vegetables, meat, and daily necessities in our family, it is the money that must be used, although it is 30 taels. Not a lot, but not much. Also! This is for everyone’s daily use. If you want to use a lot of money, of course you have to explain it to your family, and then go to the big brother to keep an account, and you get the money. “
He thought about it again, indeed, the eldest daughter-in-law should give money, and what the daughter said made sense, so she nodded and said, “That’s fine, your father and I don’t need to ask for money. Well, we don’t buy anything!”
“Let’s make the accounts clear, and tell my eldest brother that there are two sets of accounts, one for external business, and one for living at home, so we can’t mix it up. All the money for our household comes from business. , the receipt must be written clearly.”
He nodded: “Of course!”
The mother and daughter discussed this matter. One after another, all the family members also got up. It was not too late for Liu Shu and Shao Rong to get up. When the two dressed up and came to pay their respects, Liu Changgeng was still asleep, while Liu Lin and Liu Tao were washing up.
He hurried in and called Liu Changgeng, and after a while, the whole family sat down in the main hall, Liu Shu and Shao Rong kowtowed to Liu Changgeng and He, He changed his mouth and accepted the red envelope. He also prepared a set of golden head noodles for Shao Rong.
Then the brothers and sisters came to salute each other. Willow was very attentive and helped Shao Rong to prepare gifts for all the younger brothers and sisters. Liu Xuer also prepared a set of jewelry for Shao Rong, but because she could not The preciousness has gone to my mother, so I prepared a set of silver ones.
Sit next to him and listen, what happened today has something to do with him!
Shao Rong was standing beside Mr. He, Mrs. He called all the servants in the house, introduced them one by one, and then gave some orders.
Then I asked Liu Xuer to tell the things that had just been decided. When the next people heard that they also had monthly money, they were all happy, and Liu Xuer was also very good at talking, smiling and taking credit for this. On Shao Rong’s head: “This is all because the eldest young lady has entered the door. While setting the rules for you, I will also give you what you deserve. From now on, at home, you can work with peace of mind.” Liu Xuer also decided on the title. In the future, I can’t scream in a mess, and I should have a serious title. Otherwise, there will be more and more people, and it will become more and more difficult to tidy up, and if there are too many servants, there will always be those who are thoughtful and difficult to manage. What a slave, it’s really hard to do.
With some modest words, I only said: “I just came, I am not familiar with the family affairs, and I will rely on you in the future.”
The servants said in unison: “This is what the slaves (little ones) should do.”
He asked them all to go down, and this is where I told Liu Shu and Shao Rong about Liu Xuer’s suggestion. Of course, I didn’t say that much. I just said that there should be some rules at home, you guys. It’s also grown up, and I should have my own money in my hands. It can’t be said that it is still the same as in Peach Blossom Village. No matter the family, the children have no money in their hands.
The willow tree pondered, doing business outside these years, and more knowledge, these rules are all owned by the big family, the big family is like this, the oldest and the best in the house, There is also monthly money every month. Naturally this was a good idea, so he nodded.
Liu Xuer said: “Then the account is about to be separated, the shop’s account is separated from the home account, and it is also fixed, how much money is transferred from the shop side to the home account every month. Big brother, you have to work harder and keep two sets of accounts.” She also knows that the current accounts are generally two sets of accounts, one for business and one for household use, but in fact, business accounts are very different. It is cumbersome, divided into workshops, two shops, and now a silk shop has been added, which requires separate accounting, she thought about it and smiled and said: “Brother, if you think you can’t remember it, why don’t we ask for an account? house?”
He and Willow laughed almost at the same time, He said: “Now our family has such a big pomp?”
Liu Xuer smiled and said: “This is not ostentation, this is needed…”
Willow waved his hand: “No, no, that’s what, I teach Shao Rong to keep the account at home. I don’t care about the cumbersomeness of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Shao Rong has nothing to do, just learning to keep accounts. “
“Okay!” He Shi and Liu Xuer immediately agreed.
Shao Rong groaned a little, but when he saw the willow tree turn around and look at him with a smile, his face became even redder, and he murmured for a long time: “I…”
Willow said with a smile: “Don’t worry, I’ll teach you to read and settle accounts, it’s not difficult.”
Liu Xuer smiled and clapped her hands: “Okay! It’s settled! Brother, when you go out later, ask Tian Yu to find Ren Yazi, we are buying some maids.”
Willow smiled ‘pochi’, of course, put someone next to Shao Rong, he also agrees, Shao Rong will not have to do anything in the future.
The family members are busy. In the afternoon, Ren Yazi came, He and Liu Xuer picked three more little girls and followed them separately. Because Liu Xuer was about to get married, she also needed a maid of her own. When they arrived at Shicheng’s house, it was fine. Have someone at hand.
Three days back home, Shao Rong brought his new maid, Liu Shu accompanied, and the driver drove the carriage. When they passed by the former Niangou Village, many people came out. Look, many people now know that Shao Rong’s son-in-law was a scholar, and now the situation doesn’t have to be what it used to be. They all greet Shao Rong warmly.
Willow looked at the crowd, but didn’t see Li Zheng and the little son, he just sneered, this is not over.
When I came to Shao Huai’s house, the carriage went to the place where the flowers were originally planted and couldn’t get in, so a few people walked down, Liu Shu and Shao Rong walked in front, the little girl just behind.
“The bookkeeping must be difficult, right? I don’t even know a few words. How can I learn bookkeeping?” Shao Rong is most worried about this matter, and it has become a concern. .
Willow laughed, taking advantage of the remoteness of the road and no one else, she stretched out her hand and pulled her hand, and said, “I’m very good at learning, I was myself at first. I remember it, and I learned it slowly. As for how to read, I didn’t realize it before, but now you really have to learn it. You think, Lin and Senzi are not married, and maybe they will marry someone in the future. Especially Moriko, don’t the professors say he’s smart? It’s a matter of time. If you win, you might be able to marry a lady from a big family. Think about it, if you have a daughter-in-law of a daughter, People can do everything, but you can’t do anything… This sister-in-law’s momentum has been suppressed!”
Shao Rong looked up at him in surprise: “You think so far… I really didn’t expect it, but… You are right.” Speaking of this, he was already worried.
Liu Shu smiled and squeezed her hand: “Don’t worry, I’m here, let’s learn slowly, we’re still a long way from getting married.”
Shao Rong nodded. The couple were talking and had already arrived at the door of the house. Shao Huai was already waiting at the door, and Shao Gui came back and waited in the courtyard with her sister-in-law.
Seeing them coming, Shao Huai hurriedly greeted them with a smile, and welcomed them into the room with a smile. Liu Shu and Shao Rong saluted them, gave each other for a while, and then sat down.
Shao Huai saw that Shao Rong had been married for two days, and the clothes she was wearing were different from what she was wearing.
Shao Gui went to bring tea and fruit, everyone sat and talked, Shao Huaitou said one thing: “Lizheng came yesterday! I apologize for the past, and told us to move go back to live.”
When Liu Shu heard this, he snorted: “It’s too late to talk about this now, this is not a good person, bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and stepping on the low when they were weak. , Now that it is better, I will come to the door to make amends. If we let him go, he will still be like this in the future, and he will bully other people. “
Shao Huai said: “I’m not soft-hearted! I didn’t pay much attention to him yesterday!”
Liu Shu nodded and said: “I have already found the magistrate, and the documents have been handed in. The magistrate has already sent someone to tell me, and he has already checked again. There are a lot of things going on behind the scenes in Niangou Village. They are greedy for the land in Mo Village and threaten the villagers. When they are elected, they collude with the internal decision. That little son is involved in the matter of greed for Mo public grain! They are courageous enough, the county magistrate. Check it out!”
Shao Huai was surprised and delighted when she heard it: “Really… This time he should be able to drink a pot! By the way, it won’t have any effect on you, will it?”
Liu Shu smiled and said, “No, I have to sue me if I have grievances. It doesn’t matter what my identity is.”
Shao Huai thought about it, and suddenly understood, in fact, this kind of thing also depends on identity, but Liu Shu still reported to the government according to normal means, there is also a real problem, this No one can say the words that the willow tree uses power to oppress people!
