Concubine Raiders Chapter 159: Invite (below)
Chapter 159 Invitation (Part 2)
Sister Zhen was standing in front of Eleven Niang with a smile. There were two red clouds on her white cheeks. Although her voice was calm, she could not hide her excited expression: "...I made a silk flower and tied it with a green silk thread. On the holly tree, there are different fragrances in the style of silk flowers. At first glance, I thought that the Hundred Flowers Empress had fallen to the world and let their flowers bloom overnight." He said, pursing his lips and grinning.
"Sister Hui’s idea?" Eleven Niang peeled an orange in a handkerchief and handed it to her. "It was definitely not made overnight. It should be done normally. When a guest comes, it will be **** temporarily. On."
Sister Zhen nodded, took the orange and thanked the eleven mother in a low voice, divided the orange into two, and gave one to the eleven mother to eat: "However, it is not as good as our fresh flowers." Said: "Moreover, their home is not as big as ours. The living is very crowded. Several aunts live in the east wing of the upper room.
Eleven mother laughed.
Women’s nature loves these gossips!
"Lin Houye has six sons. They all live together. They must be very crowded." She smiled and asked, "Do they have a greenhouse?"
Sister Zhen shook her head: "I didn't see the greenhouse."
"Why don't you let the conservator pick some flowers and send them there." Xi Niang smiled, "I'm afraid it's rarer than you to send some gold or silver."
Sister Zhen was very happy: "I think so too. I am going to come back to discuss with my mother."
Eleven Niang smiled and said: "You can do what I can do. You don't need to discuss with me in the future. Just make your own decision."
Sister Zhen was startled: "This, how can this work..."
"What can't be done." Xi Niang smiled, "You are our eldest lady. What can't be done."
Sister Zhen didn't say anything, she looked at Eleven and smiled shyly: "I..."
Eleven mothers hoped that she would be more confident about herself, shook her hand, and once again emphasized: "What I can do, you can do it too."
Sister Zhen's eyes were slightly wet, and she thought of Eleven Niang telling her not to shed tears casually, blinked her eyes, and endured it again. She smiled and asked the eleven mother: "Mother went to the third aunt, but it went well?"
Eleven mothers felt warm.
Sister Zhen is also thinking about herself.
"My grandmother brought me over and introduced me to all the mothers in charge." She talked to Sister Zhen as a friend. "When you see this posture, you are naturally very kind to me. However, I think I always It’s a newcomer, and it’s best to respond to changes with hands, hands, heels and feet behind your third aunt, and see how your third aunt handles it. Even if my mother in charge comes to ask me, I won’t express my opinion. You have to ask your third aunt to make a decision. In this way, your third aunt’s decency is maintained, and you don’t say or do wrong because you don’t understand the house’s rules. You should know that the superiors are most afraid of making changes. It is wrong. In order to maintain the dignity of the superiors, we must always make the mistake to the end. But this kind of mistake also has its limitations. For example, it will cause very serious consequences, so it has to be changed. In order to avoid this situation, The best way is not to make decisions casually..."
She told Sister Zhen carefully what she thought and how to do.
This is good for her to face an unfamiliar environment in her husband's house in the future.
Sister Zhen listened very carefully.
"Actually, the best way is to look at the account book. The income and expenses of the family are all accountable. If you want to know the rules of the family, check the accounts, you can know everything. For example, you know. Where the family’s income comes from, you can know how the family should spend it. Once you know where the family’s money has gone, you will know how to spend the family’s money..."
Sister Zhen murmured after hearing this: "Didn't the outer courtyard draw money to the inner courtyard every year? Why do I need to know how to spend at home?"
Seeing that she had listened to her words, she was very happy and explained to her: "For example, if a large part of the family’s income is from the income of the Zhuangzi, you have to consider that your age is not good. It may have the same income every year. It is necessary to keep a part of it and only use a part of it."
Sister Zhen immediately understood: "That is to say, you have to look at the worst and best years of adulthood, just look at your usual income."
Eleven mothers could not help but nod secretly.
Sister Zhen deserves to have Wen's gene in her body. This kind of accounting problem is clear.
She nodded: "This is the truth."
I got the affirmation from the eleven mothers, Sister Zhen was bolder and said: "Do you know where all the money at home is going, so you can do things according to the old rules."
Eleven mothers looked at her inferences, and encouraged her with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes." said, "If there is a maid who is accustomed to getting married, how much is a reward? What kind of reward? There is a custom. If the rules are broken, first the subordinates will not accept it, and second, the people in the future do not know what to do. At this time, it is best to flip the books. According to the rules, no one can say anything. "
Sister Zhen nodded and said in deep thought: "If you like it very much, I will give it a private reward, but you can't break the rules and pay from the account."
Eleven Niang couldn't help sighing as she touched her head.
Sister Zhen is really talented!
"Will you plan to sell?"
Sister Zhen's face paled when she heard it.
Eleven Niang immediately realized that Sister Zhen was a little taboo about her origin. This must be related to the Xu family's gaze looking at Aunt Wen. But she thinks this is not a good phenomenon.
People need to face themselves, not avoid them!
"I want to find someone to tell me how to plan, do you want to study together?" She smiled and asked Sister Zhen.
Sister Zhen hesitated for a moment: "Second aunt told me how to calculate mentally, let me practice!"
The Eleven Niang was a little surprised, and then I thought about it. That is more in line with the second lady's usual style of maintaining a noble and elegant posture.
She didn't want to make her feel embarrassed because of their conflicting views. Immediately smiled and said: "That's not bad too!"
Sister Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Second aunt also said that in people like us, women can do small business for fun, and it’s better not to engage in larger businesses-we are better off doing business. Others are more convenient, so as not to cause the jealousy of the business and cause unnecessary trouble."
This is also very reasonable.
People like Yongpinghou, as long as they speak out about wanting to do business, they can start without a foundation or even become a shareholder. But there has never been anything for nothing in this world. If you make other people's money, you have to exchange it for something corresponding!
Eleven Niang smiled and said: "No wonder the second lady is opening a fragrance shop with the fifth lady!"
Sister Zhen shook her head as she listened: "Second aunt did not open the fragrance dew shop with her fifth aunt. It was the fifth aunt who opened the fragrance dew shop and asked the second aunt for a prescription, and the second aunt gave the fragrance dew prescription. I won my fifth aunt. Later, the fifth aunt said that the business of Xianglu shop was very good, and she also gave two shares to her second aunt, but she didn't want it."
Eleven Mother was startled.
I didn't expect Sister Zhen to know about this. After thinking about it, the second lady is equivalent to her teacher. The two must be together often, and it is not unusual to know these things.
Sister Zhen laughed: "Auntie San told you this, right?"
Why is there such a statement?
Eleven Niang smiled calmly at Sister Zhen: "No. I wanted to be a Fragrant Dew shop before. Later, the only two shops in Yanjing belonged to the Fifth Lady, and I heard it was the second one. Madam did it together, so I stopped thinking about it."
Sister Zhen listened with confidence: "Once my third aunt came to ask me for news. I said it, but she didn't believe it. I thought she said it..." Then he said, "But, I really I don't know Xianglu's recipe-mainly because I didn't pay attention to this matter before." After speaking, he looked at her with some anxiety.
Of course, it's not a caring person, who will pay attention to this.
Eleven Mother hurriedly said: "I also have a recipe for fragrance dew, but I have never done it. Since we already have two fragrance dew shops, how can my family dig their own feet? Wall. Naturally, we can no longer consider this aspect."
Sister Zhen let out a sigh of relief, and then as if to make up for something, she said, "Or, I will tell my second aunt and let her tell you how to make incense. The second aunt made the smoke. The incense is very famous. Ciyuan Temple’s most famous first-grade incense has been advised by the second aunt. The formula has been re-improved, and it is now selling well."
Eleven Niang doesn't want Sister Zhen to beg for her own business. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Look at me, how can I have time to do business? The main reason is that when I got married last time, I was hired and gave away two bottles of perfume. I looked like I liked it very much, so I thought about making perfume myself. Now, since I like it, others must also like it. I moved the idea of opening a shop."
Sister Zhen nodded and smiled: "Or, in the spring, I will help you make perfume at home? If it doesn't work, go and ask your second aunt!"
Eleven mothers vaguely said: "I am so busy now. If I think about it, I may not be able to do it. Let's talk about it then!"
Sister Zhen is right to think about it. She asked her about the New Year's Day: "...Do you want me to help?"
Also, let's learn how to steward together!
"Okay!" Eleven mothers are very welcome, "Let’s look at the ledger together and sum up some things. Then we will have a good idea. If you encounter it in the future, you can also compare it at home."
Sister Zhen's face flushed slightly.
Eleven Niang covered her sleeves and smiled.
A little maid ran in: "Master Hou is back!"
Eleven Mother was stunned.
Busy to get up and look at the self-ringing bell--it was a quarter short of early noon.
Why are you back at this time?
She confessed to Sister Zhen~IndoMTL.com~ and greeted her in a hurry.
As soon as I left the door, I saw Xu Lingyi striding across the courtyard toward the main house.
He looked a little tired, but his expression was as calm as usual, making it impossible to guess his true emotions.
"Master Hou!" Eleven Niang bowed her knees to salute him, and sister Zhen, who followed her, also squatted down.
Xu Lingyi was slightly surprised to see Sister Zhen'er.
Eleven Niang hurriedly explained with a smile: "Sister Zhen is old, I want her to help me with needlework. Mrs. Tai asked her to move to our place temporarily. Wait for the fifth siblings to live there , I am going to find a place for her to move in in the back garden. The decision is urgent, so I didn’t discuss it with Lord Hou..."
Before she finished speaking, Xu Lingyi waved his hand: "You can decide these things." Looking at sister Zhen's eyes, there was a little hesitation, as if she had something to say and didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a moment, he went straight into the room.
