One day, the girl Siqi in the Yingchun Room asked the little girl Lianhuaer to go to the kitchen and ask for a bowl of steamed eggs for her. The Liu family who was in charge of the Daguanyuan kitchen said that there was a shortage of eggs and it was difficult to prepare.
If you want to say it doesn't exist, then forget it, but the Liu family's bully Lianhua'er is young and said again: "For some reason, the eggs are very short this year, and you can't even find them for ten dollars."
p>
At this point, the meaning is obvious.
But Lian Hua'er had previously asked for a portion of tofu from the Liu family on behalf of Siqi, but the Liu family gave him a plate of sour tofu.
So Lian Hua'er was careful and refused to leave no matter what, and even asked her to dig out twenty eggs in the kitchen.
In full view of the public, the Liu family couldn't stand down now. In fact, it would have been fine if she had just looked at her with some eyes, put on a smile, and admitted the matter, but she was so embarrassed by the lotus in front of her that she became angry.
Get up and act like a spoiler: "Leave these together to prepare the toppings for the dishes. The girls don't want them, and they won't cook them yet. They are prepared for urgent needs. After you eat, if you want to get up, there is nothing good."
Even the eggs are gone!
You live deep in your compound, with hands outstretched for water and mouths opened for food. You only know that eggs are common objects. How do you know about the market outside?
Don't talk about this, there will be a year when even the grass roots are gone. I advise them to make do with thin rice, white rice, fat chicken and big duck every day. If they are tired of eating, they will make stories every day.
Here it comes. Eggs, tofu, gluten, fried radish with soy sauce, dare to change the taste.
It’s just that I didn’t promise you that if you want one thing to be the same, that’s ten or so. I don’t want to serve the first-level masters, I only prepare you for the second-level masters!”
Lotus was so crowded when the car came down that he cried loudly and went back. Unexpectedly, it attracted all the three springs.
This member of the Liu family was originally a person who served the twelve little actors in Lixiangyuan. Because he was good at doing things, when Lixiangyuan was disbanded and a small kitchen was set up in Grand View Garden, he was sent to take charge of the small kitchen and became a subordinate of Lin Zhixiao's family.

If you know how to do things, you will naturally know how to look. When you see Tanchun approaching in a fierce manner, and the secret passage of the Liu family is not good, you apologize and admit your mistake, pointing to the stove and steaming the eggs long ago.
Tanchun has been in charge of the Grand View Garden for a long time, and even though he had only heard of many things before, he has basically seen them later.
The Liu family's management of the small kitchen involves daily handling of firewood and rice, and there must be "outsourcing".
Thanks to Jia Lan’s repeated reminders, otherwise it would have been difficult for Tanchun’s temperament to endure it until today.
Compared with Tanchun, who was neither good nor bad in the original book, now she has full authorization from Sister Feng, has available people under her, and has the help of Li Wan Baochai, which is really different.
So Tanchun immediately asked someone to take stock of the rice grains and coal in the kitchen, and found that the japonica rice was two stones short, the commonly used rice was a month too long, and the charcoal was also owed.
The accounts are inconsistent with the facts. The shortcomings are not even half a star. This is just rice, grain and coal. There are many errors and omissions in the daily journal recording of the girls' vegetables and meat. Now the Liu family is completely unclear.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this shortfall must have been swallowed up by the Liu family, or used as gifts to curry favor.
If it was just like this, just punish her once and make up for the shortfall. Unexpectedly, the Liu family confessed something. She used a lot of the shortfall to play gambling, not only outside, but also among them.
There are also people in the garden.
Tanchun was keenly aware that this was no small matter, and quickly called for Li Wan, Baochai, and even Daiyu, who usually didn't care about anything.
When gambling is involved, this matter cannot be covered up. Even Li Wan feels that this matter must be dealt with and cannot be forgotten.
This is not only the decency of a wealthy family, but also involves the wealth and life of the owner of the family.
Just think about it, it is impossible for one person to win this game. It must take several people to work together. On weekdays, it is just a matter of fun. If the guard can win such a game during the night watch, wouldn't it be impossible for the entrance guard of the Rongguo Mansion?
It's the same as nothing. What if some bad guys come from outside?
After everyone put it all together, they felt that this matter could not be ignored, nor could it be dealt with in a big way. After a long discussion, they finally came up with a solution. They sent someone to invite Ping'er to tell Sister Feng the whole story, and then asked Sister Feng to tell the Liu family and other women involved in gambling.
By sending it to the Zhuangzi outside, the relationship between master and servant was settled. The remaining vacancies in the kitchen were left to Li Wan and asked Jiao Da to send a cook from Beizhuang to take care of them, changing them once a year.
Jia Lan couldn't help but nod after hearing this. Regular rotation always has an advantage in the system than someone being in charge for a long time. Besides, the people in Beizhuang are all loyal and capable. They are all descendants of the soldiers of the Rongguo. Going to Jia Mu's side
Even if you report it, you can still stand up.
"Since then, we have simply let Daoxiang Village supply some rice, grain and meat, so as to save the purchasers from having to deal with it.
Of course, proper comfort is still needed. The most important thing for a housekeeper is that he has a good reputation. Tan Yatou's thunderous display of such tricks is enough to scare the servants. If these people can realize themselves, they will naturally be fine, and there is no need to mess with everyone.
Self-danger."
"My mother is wise." Jia Lan cupped her hands and complimented.
Li Wan glared at his son: "Why are you so glib?"
Jia Lan said helplessly: "My child really thinks his mother is wise!"
This thing is easy to say, but not easy to operate. After all, you have to go through the accounting office in the house. If ordinary people were to argue back and forth and get kickbacks in the middle, it would take a long time. The disadvantage is that one of them is Li Wan.
, one is Sister Feng, and both ends of the accounting room dare not offend.
After not seeing each other for a year, this Grand View Garden gave Jia Lan many different feelings.
Jia Lan was pleased with the new atmosphere of the Grand View Garden. It seemed that he had done the right thing by letting Li Wan and Sister Feng keep in touch. Now the Grand View Garden is in great condition under the care of Sanchun and others.
Since Daoxiang Village can earn an income, the rest should be pretty good too.
"Not only good?" Yingchun said with a smile.
On this day, Yingchun called people to invite Jia Lan to taste the newly made tea fruits. When Jia Lan mentioned this, Yingchun pointed at Tanchun: "A few years ago, the third sister contracted out all the flowers and plants in the garden.
People saw that the scented tea sold in the house was very popular, so they offered a high price. Later, everyone in the pond did the same thing. Not only did they save a lot of money on weekdays, but they also earned a thousand taels in total!"
Xichun also said: "Even the makeup and hair oil we usually use are better than before!"
Tanchun raised his chin slightly proudly.
If we, the ladies, don’t have a deep feeling about money, they have a different feeling about the cosmetics they use every month.
With the lessons of the Liu family in front of them, the people below naturally have to be respectful, and they don't dare to use those defective products to make up for it.
