When I arrived at Shangfang, seeing the quiet atmosphere around me was very solemn, Ruhui knew what had happened just now.
Because she was lazy, and the Meng family had nothing to worry about, Ruhui didn't let the maid beside her deliberately contact the people around the old lady. So she can't know what happened in the house right away, and sometimes she needs to talk to her.
Upon entering the house, Ruhui respectfully blessed the two of them sitting on the couch.
Grandpa Meng said straightforwardly: "The house is messy now, should you know this?" For a junior, there is no need to circumscribe.
Ruhui nodded lightly.
Mrs. Meng said: "You can't live without someone in charge at home, but your grandmother is getting older, so you can't let her take care of you at all ages!"
Ruhui wasn't stupid, so she asked directly: "Does grandfather want me to take over the duties of the mansion?"
Grandpa Meng nodded.
Ruhui didn't refuse, but said tactfully: "The reason why the seven siblings are making trouble is that they have no money in the family. Grandfather, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice." The old lady asked her to be a steward, and this couldn't be refused. Even if he retires, the old lady is still the patriarch of the family. Don't even think about asking her to dig out her private house to subsidize the public school.
Mrs. Meng said: "I have already paid ten thousand taels of silver to the account. This money should be enough for three months in the house." He didn't say where the money came from.
Hearing that there is money in the account, and that it only takes her three months to be a housekeeper, Ruhui responded with one mouthful: "Grandfather, there are a lot of things going on this year. I don't know if I can let the five younger siblings take care of the general affairs with me." The housekeeper is very tired. , There are still so many large and small beads in Meng Mansion. There are more people, more troubles, and more tired.
Grandpa Meng didn't even lift his eyelids: "You can handle these things yourself!"
The old lady waited for Ruhui to leave, and asked, "Why let her take care of the house for three months? Since the old lady doesn't want to take care of the housekeeping, I just hand it over to Ranxi's wife."
Grandpa Meng looked at the old lady and said, "Among all the grandchildren, the smartest is the daughter-in-law of Ranxi. Do you think she would be willing to let her take care of the affairs of the house?" I want to know, it's impossible. If she dared to force her, because of Ning's temperament, she was afraid that she would take the child to live with her.
The Ning family is in full swing, while the Meng family is already going downhill. Ning really took the child back, and she had to apologize to Ranxi before he could get him back.
The old lady said: "What about three months from now?"
The old lady said: "After three months, let them take charge of their own families."
The old lady's heart jumped and asked, "You want to split up?"
Seeing the old lady's order, the old lady immediately said: "No, you can't divide the family. Once the family is separated, the family will be separated."
If it is possible, the old lady does not want to split up. It’s just that, at this point, they can only divide their families: “The boss and the couple want to divide their families. Let's go!" He retired and wanted to enjoy his old age, but he was not bothered by these trivial things all day long. Therefore, separation is the best choice.
Having said that, the old lady also knew that it was imperative to divide the family. However, she still shed tears in sadness: "If the family is divided, it will be difficult to have a family together for a meal in the future."
The old lady said: "This is easy to handle. They are not allowed to move out after the separation. We must wait until we die before we can move out." When he followed into the capital, he considered that there were many grandchildren. So the old man bought a five-in-one mansion. Therefore, even if the Meng family has a large population, they can still live in it today.
The old lady hesitated: "I'm afraid they won't be happy."
"Whoever dares to disagree, I won't give him a penny." If you don't even agree to such a request, you don't want to be unfilial to your descendants.
The old lady nodded.
Chen heard that the old lady had paid ten thousand taels of silver to the account, and said: "It seems that the old lady and the old lady's private room is still very thick."
Ruhui smiled and said, "Who is the old lady? Does he know what the uncle and the uncle did." Even if he doesn't know all of them, he knows most of them.
Now that he knows the nature of the couple, the old man naturally wants to pay attention to it. Otherwise, how can I enjoy my old age
Ruhui asked Chen to take care of the sewing room and the tea room, and she took care of the rest.
Unlike the old rule, the housekeeper of Mengsi's grandmother, Ruhui, set the rules again when he came up. That means reconciling accounts every ten days, unlike the previous month.
Ten days later, Ruhui called Mama Cui, who was in charge of purchasing in the kitchen, over. After that, everyone in the house knew that Huige had taken care of Cui's mother's errand, and then changed into his own companion room to take care of the kitchen.
After Chen knew about it, he said with some worry: "Sansao, why is Mama Cui's confidant too. If you change people like this, the aunt will be very angry?"
"Angry? Even if you buy an egg for five cents, it costs 20 catties. But our family of five has never seen an egg shell. If I don't change her, she may not be able to survive the twelfth lunar month. "The usual amount of eggs is two cents. In winter, the price of less eggs is more expensive than usual. But no matter how expensive it is, there is no such horror as it has risen tenfold.
She is not a lady who doesn't touch Yangshui with her fingers, on the contrary, she knows prices very well.
If Hui was a housekeeper in Anyanghou, he knew that there would be no fish when the water was clear. But Anyang Houfu's manager responsible for the purchase also made money, but they would bargain with the seller for the purchase and then repay the account at the market price. The price difference in the middle went into their pockets. In this regard, Ruhui also opened her eyes and closed her eyes. But this mother Cui has too much appetite.
Chen said: "That's what I said, I'm afraid the aunt will not let it go."
With a snort, Ruhui said, "I didn't care about her before, thinking that she was our elder. But if she dared to trouble me, I would not be afraid of her." After concealing it, she no longer respected Mrs. Meng.
Mai Sui raised her voice and said, "Grandma, the fourth grandma is here." After the head of Ziruhui, Mai Sui also increased. However, as Ruhui's confidant, she also knew that the Meng family would be separated soon. Therefore, her attitude towards everyone remains the same. In this way, it is more respected.
When Grandma Mengsi came in, she saw the two and probably joked: "When I was a housekeeper, I was tired and half dead all day. But I didn't expect Sansao to be so leisurely with my younger siblings." Her housekeeper was not exhausted, but burnt. .
Ruhui smiled and said: "The four younger siblings are so busy, why have time to come to me?"
Grandma Mengsi smiled bitterly: "Don't tell the third wife, it's my mother-in-law who wants to see you, so let me invite you."
I want to know that it must be for Cui's mother. In fact, she doesn't like Mama Cui either, but that is one of Madame Meng's confidantes. No matter how unpleasant it is, I dare not show it. Seeing Ruhui revolutionizing her job, Grandma Meng Si was still very happy.
Ruhui smiled, this is because she wants to inquire about Cui's mother. However, she is not afraid.
At the door, Grandma Mengsi did not follow in but stood at the door and waited. Not long after she heard Ruhui calling the doctor loudly, she ran in quickly.
Seeing Mrs. Meng lying on the bed unconscious, Grandma Meng Si was anxious: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with my mother-in-law?"
"Auntie Cui fainted when she heard that Cui's mother was greedy for thousands of taels of silver from her father." After that, Ruhui said annoyedly: "I knew that, I won't tell the auntie about this. "
Grandma Meng Si asked with horror on her face: "You said Mama Cui was greedy for a few thousand taels of silver?" Her dowry was only more than four thousand taels of silver.
Ruhui said: "Mother Cui quoted the price double or even several times the price of the things she bought. After more than ten years, it is estimated that there will be a few thousand taels of silver."
After a pause, Ruhui said again: "As far as I know, her younger son has not only a house, but also a small shop and 60 acres of land." Minions cannot have private property. However, Ms. Cui's youngest son received grace when he was six years old and released him as a slave. If you are a good citizen, you can also have your own property.
Grandma Meng Si gritted her teeth and said, "This dog slave should be cut a thousand times." She knew that Cui's mother made a profit when she bought it, but she didn't expect to be greedy so much.
Ruhui smiled and said, "Whether she is the elder's mother's companion house, how to deal with it is up to the elder's mother." She only needs to let the people in the Meng Mansion know that Cui's mother is greedy for a large amount of money. As for money greedy and how to deal with Cui's mother, she doesn't want to worry about it.
Before the doctor came, Mrs. Meng woke up quietly. Upon seeing Ruhui, Mrs. Meng said, "Why are you still here?"
"Since the eldest mother doesn't want to see me, then I will go back first." After speaking, Ruhui walked away.
In the evening, Mai Sui and Ruhui said: "Grandma San, the lady sent someone to check Mama Cui's house. It is said that they copied more than 300 taels of silver."
"What do you do with Granny Cui?"
Mai Sui shook his head and said, "Ms. Cui's family has been sold and sold separately." Except for the youngest son, Ms. Cui's husband, son and daughter are all working in Meng's mansion. With this sale, the family will no longer be able to reunite.
Ruhui smiled.
As soon as Ms. Cui's incident happened, the other stewards in the house instantly turned into quails, and they were not good enough. No one in the mansion dared to rape and slip. The atmosphere of Meng Mansion has improved a lot.
On this day, Meng Ranxi and Ruhui said: "Today, my grandmother told me that I hope you can keep in charge of the general affairs of the house, but I was rejected. I told my grandmother that you will return the housekeeping power when your elder mother is ill. Give it back to the eldest mother." If the butler is tired, he has to complain about it, so why bother.
Ruhui smiled and said, "Even if the elder mother is cured, her grandfather won't let her take care of the house before the separation. But it's okay, she's been affected for only two months."
"Hui'er, looking at my grandmother, I'm afraid it's splitting the family, so we can't move out." In fact, Meng Ranxi also wanted to move out and stand on his own. But if the old lady and the old lady disagree with them to move, he can only compromise. He has two old people who rely on him today.
Ruhui smiled and said: "These things, let's talk about these things later!"
