After the house was built, it was natural for someone to buy it. Tian Minrui and the others were getting older, and they also needed a smart boy to serve them, so they bought two rooms for them.
There are two people living in the house. Their family name is Lin, and the head of the house is called Lin Xiaoquan. I heard that he used to work as an errand in a wealthy family. He was also calm and capable. He was praised a lot by the head's wife, which made the manager jealous and found a loophole for him to take advantage of.
, As a result, the whole family was sold. There were four people in this house. The mother-in-law used to work in the laundry bureau in that family, and the eldest daughter Guihua worked as a rough maid. She is thirteen years old this year, and the youngest son is Dong.
My son is eleven years old and is also working as an errand boy in the outer courtyard.
The other family's surname was Jiang, and the head of the family, Jiang Rongsheng, had previously worked as a groom for an official's family, but later the official was transferred to Western Xinjiang for appointment. The family was unwilling to leave the local area, so the official returned the contract of sale.
Ordinarily this is a good thing. After all, getting rid of the slave status will also be good for his descendants in the future. However, Jiang Rongsheng only has one daughter and does not know how to make a living. The family has no land or land, and the severance money he received is because his old man
My father was seriously ill and had to recover, so he had no choice but to continue to be a slave.
When Tian Minyan asked Deng Fugui to look for people for her, she specifically told her that it would be best to hire people who have worked as servants in wealthy families, because such people have worked as servants in those places and will know more or less the rules, unlike the other four.
Those who don’t understand Liu have to teach them on their own.
This wife of the Jiang family used to work in the kitchen. She looked very neat, her clothes were neat, and the food she cooked was said to taste good. Tian Minyan decided to assign her to the kitchen and do chores. As for Jiang Rongsheng, she also became a groom to follow.
Tian Minyan and his other masters ran errands, while his father, Old Man Jiang, acted as a concierge.
Lin Xiaoquan seemed to have a calm temperament. Tian Minyan asked a few questions. Seeing that his answers were neither humble nor overbearing, his eyebrows were low and his eyes were submissive, and he was very well-behaved, so he temporarily let him be the acting housekeeper of the outer courtyard to help deal with matters such as interpersonal relationships. I have seen it.
His ability to do things will determine whether he will be upgraded or downgraded, and his mother-in-law will assist Luo in taking care of the inner house and other related matters.
As for the daughter of the two families, Tian Minyan also has arrangements. Bai Mei intends to train her to be an assistant, and now she takes care of her when she goes out and about. She is also used to taking care of her own affairs. She is considered a big maid. Of course, training
Well, in the future, I will represent myself as a director.
Xiaoxing was the first one she bought. She was smart, lively and carefree, but had a kind heart. She stayed with Luo Shi for a long time, so Tian Minyan asked her to continue to stay with Luo Shi as his personal maid.
Therefore, Tian Minyan, the daughters of these two families, Osmanthus fragrans and Litchi, plans to let them become third-class maids first. What happens in the future depends on fate.
Generally, newly bought servants would be renamed by their masters. Tian Minyan asked both families and found out that these were their real names, so she did not change them. She only changed the names of the two girls and the one who worked for Tian Minrui as a servant. It was just for convenience.
, only one word is Jixiang Ruyi, so the sweet-scented osmanthus was changed to Jixiang, the red girl from the Jiang family was called Ruyi, and the Dongzi was called Jiqing.
The person who bought the whole house naturally signed a death contract. If anyone betrayed the owner and defected, he would be beaten to death with a stick.
"As a servant in our Tian family, you only need to remember one thing: loyalty, absolute loyalty. If you are ungrateful and betray your master, if you find out, you will be beaten to death." Tian Minyan stood on the steps, looked down at the two people in the room below, and said sharply: "
No matter where you worked as errands in the past, what kind of life you lived, or what errands you did, in my Tian family, no matter how the master arranges the errands, all you can do is obey. Nothing but obedience."
The people below heard this and shrank their necks. Lin Xiaoquan boldly raised his head and looked into Ueda Minyan's stern eyes. His pupils shrank and he hurriedly lowered his head. He had long heard that this girl from the new master's family was not simple. Sure enough,
in this way.
"Do you understand what the second girl said?" Tian Minrui also said coldly: "Don't worry, my Tian family has clear rewards and punishments. As long as you are dedicated to my Tian family and do your work sincerely, your benefits will be inevitable. But if you really find out that you are betraying the Lord and being ungrateful,
Yes, hum." His tone was a strong warning.
"Yes, Master, Miss." Everyone responded in unison.
The new house had just been built, and many furniture items were not put in place, and some rooms needed to be tidied up and re-cleaned. Tian Minyan asked the two servants to live in the back room of the new house, and first tidied up the new house, placed the furniture, etc.
Move the things in again.
This was not the first time that the people in the two houses were directors. After listening to Tian Minyan's instructions, they each found a house to live in and started to clean it up.
"I don't know if they will accept this errand arrangement. It's obvious that the work in the Lin family's house should be easier, but we don't want to cause trouble within two days." After returning to the old house, Tian Minrui frowned and said.
They bought it at the same time, and the family became a housekeeper. The daughter-in-law also worked as the housekeeper of the inner house, so she was in the center of the core, but one of them worked as an errand boy, and the mother-in-law also took care of the kitchen. There was a feeling of favoring one over the other.
"Brother, what's wrong with this? It's our master's job to arrange the errands. All they can do is obey. Who the master wants to appreciate is the master's own thinking. If you are capable, no one can stop you from climbing.
Isn't that the one who came up?" Tian Minyan gave him a strange look and said, "Brother, don't underestimate the groom. He is also running errands with us outside. After a long time, do you think his knowledge is worse than that of a steward in the outer courtyard? What if?
If you are smart and capable, you are afraid that you will not be favored by the master in the long run, and will not be able to become a shopkeeper or a steward? Besides, the person in charge of the kitchen, although it is a kitchen, and the number of people who eat in our family is small, but the kitchen of a big family, that is
It’s a place with plenty of oil and water, and as long as it’s not too much, the master will turn a blind eye. Our kitchen is considered a caretaker of the Jiang family, can it be fattened?”
Tian Minrui was stunned, and couldn't help but laugh when he thought of how the Jiang family beamed when they heard that he was arranged in the kitchen.
"I wish you had thought more carefully." He felt ashamed for a while.
Tian Minyan shook her head and said: "No, brother, you hold these people's bonds of sale or death. They are slaves and you are the master. Even if you beat them to death, no one can care about them."
"Now that our life is good, it will be even better in the future. Who will look down on our family now? Brother, when you walk out of Yangmei Village, who won't call you young master? Call us father and mother three masters and three wives? Brother, we don't
Learn from those who are arrogant even if they only have two dollars, and don't learn from those who are extravagant. But you have to show off your momentum and correct your identity. You have to tell the world that you are no longer the Maeda family who couldn't have enough to eat and couldn't sleep.
Poor boy who wrote this letter, you must make those slaves, even those who are inferior to you, fear you and look up to you."
Tian Minrui was stunned after listening to her words, his face turned a little red, but he straightened his body unconsciously and nodded heavily.
