Xu Chunjun was the housekeeper for half a month, and the servants all decided that she could not convince the public.
Let's not talk about it at a distance, let's just say that the day Zhu's mother and Yu Daxia had a quarrel, she came to her for comment. This real grandma was not as dignified as the companion next to her.
After this incident, Yu Daxia became even more arrogant and even more outrageous than when his wife was in charge.
People like Mama Zhu dare to be angry but dare not speak out. They all know that even if they get in front of grandma, it will be settled in the end.
Then I thought about how the uncle had never lived in her room since the day they got married, and then he even took his concubine out to play.
This grandma is not angry at all, which shows that this person is born without anger.
Come to think of it, how can a man who is not as knowledgeable as his husband care about the rights and wrongs between his servants?
The head of the family works like a monk and clocks the clock, so why do servants like them bother to worry about it? They are more happy to just throw away their hands.
On this day, Xu Chunjun ordered the second housekeeper Zheng Dahu to be called.
"It's been almost a month since the uncle went to Dongdu," Xu Chunjun said to Zheng Dahu, "There hasn't been much going on at home recently. You and two of you should go to Dongdu to look for the uncle."
After hearing this, Zheng Dahu quickly said: "What the eldest grandma said is that the uncle did grow a bit when he went there. I will pack up today and set off tomorrow morning to rush to Dongdu. I must ask the uncle to come back."
Xu Chunjun laughed after hearing this, shook his head and said, "Second housekeeper, you misunderstood. I asked you to go to the uncle to ask if the expenses he brought are enough. If not, give him more."
Zheng Dahu's eyes almost stopped falling out. He had lived to be thirty years old, and he had never seen such a virtuous person.
"Grandma, our family doesn't have much money in our account." Zheng Dahu reminded carefully.
"I know, I don't need the money in the account." Xu Chunjun said, "It's my own private money."
Zheng Dahu suspected that this grandma was the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva who came to the mortal world to undergo calamities. Otherwise, why didn't she have the temperament of an ordinary woman?
"You can distribute the things at hand to the people below," Xu Chunjun said to him, "and then put them in order. I will bring you five hundred taels of silver notes tomorrow, and you must hand them over to the uncle in person."
"I know, I know, let's go down and get ready." When Zheng Dahu turned around, he caught a glimpse of a stack of account books on the window sill, which were delivered by the accountant a few days ago.
A thin layer of dust has fallen on it, which shows that it has not been turned over at all in the past few days.
"By the way, you don't have to come back in a hurry. When the uncle left, he took two people with him. When you see the uncle, just stay here and wait for him." Xu Chunjun added.
It is certainly a good job to accompany the uncle to eat, drink and have fun in Dongdu.
Who doesn't know that their uncle is a prodigal? The family has no money, but they still need to eat well and wear good clothes.
Besides, the eldest grandma has brought some money, and it will not be wasted until it is wasted.
The next day, Zheng Dahu asked two people to follow him and went out to Dongdu.
It was time to go to bed at night, Xu Chunjun sat in front of the dressing table, and Ziling and Lvchun helped her remove her makeup.
Both of them were hesitant to speak. They now increasingly understood what their girl was trying to do.
"What's wrong with you two? Don't you tell me directly if you have anything to say?" Xu Chunjun asked funny.
"Girl, the uncle is already so ridiculous, why are you still indulging him?" Zi Lingling really couldn't figure it out, "The more virtuous you are, the more he will take advantage of you. If you use this method to influence him, I'm afraid you will lose a lot of money.
century."
"Yes, girl, you are not helpless, why are you doting on them like this?" Lvchun didn't understand even more. They girls are not idiots. "I'm really afraid that the uncle will abuse us even more in the future."
"The uncle has been ridiculous for more than a day or two. If you want to change him, you can't rush it at this moment." Xu Chunjun was not angry at all, but said with a smile, "You must first fix the family, and then train him."
"That's true, but girl, you don't take care of the house very much now!" Lu Shen was about to burst into tears. "You don't know what these servants are talking about behind their backs. It's so unpleasant to hear."
She accidentally heard a sentence or so, and her lungs almost exploded with anger.
This is what she heard, and she doesn’t know what to say if she didn’t hear it!
Zi Ling also said: "It's right for the girl to want to be lenient with me. But now these servants don't even distinguish between superiority and inferiority. They have messed up the rules and regulations, and they have become a mess. This
The family is already on the verge of collapse, and if it continues like this, it’s really...unthinkable."
Xu Chunjun listened to the two of them quietly, still looking cheerful.
"Let me ask you two, if I take strict control of the house as soon as I become the steward, what will be the result?"
Ziling and Lvchun looked at each other and said, "Of course they don't dare to make such a mistake."
"Yes," Xu Chunjun said, "They will be restrained and afraid. But is that still their true nature?"
"What the girl means is that she wants to see clearly who they are, so why is she so indifferent?" Zi Ling's glasses lit up.
"Yes, if you want to see a person clearly, you must not stand high. Instead, you must lower yourself, even as low as the dust." Xu Chunjun took a wooden comb and gently combed his hair, "Zheng
The ruin of a family does not happen overnight. Of course, it has a lot to do with the poor management of the family. It cannot be ruled out that the people below are cheating and wasting money. There is no need to doubt that few of these stewards are clean.
We are only here for a short time, so they can't get to the bottom of it. They will naturally be wary and become more or less cautious in doing things. This is actually not good for us.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy means you can win a hundred battles. We must first understand the temperament of these people, and then we can prescribe the right medicine.
If you start with a strong dose of medicine, it will be even harder to tell who is a human and who is a ghost."
"So that's it! The girl thought deeply." Zi Ling really admired Xu Chunjun.
Ever since the girl entered the house, her uncle had humiliated her several times.
Old lady, my wife is frank enough to protect my uncle, but Aunt Liu is stubborn and unreasonable.
The affairs of the family are in a mess, the servants all have their own agendas, and it is difficult to distinguish between loyal and traitorous people.
All these combined together are absolutely unbearable to ordinary people.
If you encounter someone who is impatient, you will definitely quarrel with your husband and then your mother-in-law, and after you quarrel with your concubine, you will also quarrel with your servants.
Noisy and noisy, not only will nothing good be achieved, but it will also muddy the water.
When they first arrived, the most important thing was to see the faces of these people as soon as possible.
Xu Chunjun chose the fastest way, which was to treat the situation by doing nothing and pretending to be confused.
"If a cat is catching mice, it will never meow in front of the mouse hole." Xu Chunjun smiled playfully, showing the girl's unique naivety, "It has to hide its claws and pretend to be asleep."
"Hey, my girl!" Lu Xun clicked her tongue twice, "You are really amazing! Not to mention you deceived everyone in the Zheng family, even Sister Ziling and I were deceived by you.
