Winning every step of the Red Mansion

Besides, Mammy Lai asked Mother Jia to please her, hoping to find a place for her precious grandson to study in Jia's family, but in the end she said a few words, which made Shi Fei'er choke on what she said.Nanny Lai was dumbfounded, his family's grandson was two years older than Jia Zhu, and was about to enter a private school at this time, but how could the outside world compare to Jia's house.I thought that this time I would give up my face to please the old lady, and let Jia Zhu enter Jia's family school by using the excuse of being a companion for Jia Zhu.Unexpectedly, Jia's mother remembered it so clearly. She wanted to take advantage of the old lady's happy acceptance, and her grandson would enter the family school. It's just a talk about whether to accompany or not. Just resign, I never thought that the old lady would remember this matter of quitting her nationality.It was so easy for my family to get rid of my grandson's registration, so I definitely can't send it back.

Seeing that he didn't talk to him, Shi Fei'er smiled and continued: "The rules of our house cannot be changed. If your grandson wants to study at home, what's the problem? But prepare some gifts and so on. , if you pass the exam, you don’t know if you will accept it. I’m a housewife and I can’t break the rules of my family.”

Hearing what Jiamu said, Mammy Lai heaved a sigh of relief, "I made the old lady laugh. My old lady was confused for a while and remembered the rules wrongly, so she rushed to your side to beg for mercy. This bundle It is right to cultivate nature, I will go back and prepare it for my master."

Shi Feier smiled, "I know you are well-off, and you have always been generous. I think your grandson is good. If you have a future, you must treat me to a drink."

Nanny Lai was naturally happy when she heard this, "The old lady loves you, brother Zhu and brother Hu will be the ones who will have great promise in the future, if my unsatisfactory grandson can reach one-tenth of it, I will eat fast and chant Buddha , thank goodness."

Shi Feier smiled and chatted with Nanny Lai, and Nanny Lai left happily.Seeing him leave, Shi Feier didn't bother to look through the ledger again, and picked up a cup of tea to lose herself.

This Lai's family is really well-known in Jia's mansion, Nanny Lai served the old master of Jia's mansion, because she is good at observing words and demeanor, and has the right and wrong ways, she is quite trusted by the old master.Two sons, Lai Da and Lai Er, were born, and they were the chief managers of the Rongning Second Mansion respectively.How prestigious is the chief steward of the Duke's Mansion. To put it bluntly, Lai Da Lai Er in Jia's Mansion is a bit more arrogant than ordinary masters. Call him Grandpa Lai.

Shi Fei'er remembered the records in the Dream of the Red Chamber that although Lai Da was a slave in the mansion, he also acted like a master in his own house.A large group of maids and servants waited on her back and forth. The house is not small, and she even built a very nice garden, which made Jiamu feel that it should not be underestimated.Lai Xiangrong, Lai Da's son, was released from slavery when he landed, and his family was also provided for like a young master.When he grew up, he donated an official through Jia's mansion. At first it was false, but later he made a real shortage and served as the county magistrate.It stands to reason that such a family should be grateful to Jia's family. As a result, Jia's mother passed away, and Jia Zheng helped him. He asked Lai Shangrong to borrow 500 taels of silver when the road was not enough. Added 50 taels.Even the servant who delivered the letter couldn't see it.Thinking of Jia Yu Village again, Shi Fei'er sighed, this Jia's mansion really raised a group of white-eyed wolves who lived on their own pockets.

But this time, Shi Fei'er did not use Jia's mother's mouth to reject Lai Shangrong's desire to study in this family.First of all, although Nanny Lai is a slave in Jia's mansion, she does have a lot of face. This time, she specially came to ask Jia Mu for instructions. If she followed Jia Mu's past behavior, she would definitely respond, and it was not a big deal.If he suddenly changed his face and said no, he would inevitably be suspected.What's more, Lai Dashen is the housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion, even if he should not, if he asks Jia Zheng or Jia amnesty, he will probably respond.Instead of letting them agree, it's better to sell this favor yourself.Besides, I didn't agree with her this time, whether I can go to home to learn it depends on my own destiny.If according to Jia Dairu's standards, there is a 9 out of [-] chances of getting in, and he only valued this bunch of cultivation gifts.But then again, even if they enter, can they be kicked out?Anyway, this school is chaotic and needs to be rectified.

As for the Lai family, Shi Feier also wanted to make a move.But now is not the time, the Lai family has lived in Jia's mansion for a long time, and the two brothers must have a solid foundation in front of Jia's house, and the relationship will be intricate.If you want to move, it must be a big move, and you must be able to pinch the screw with three fingers to be sure.I can't move easily now, so I have to bear with it.

Seeing how others looked back at her, Shi Feier couldn't help but sighed, her two cheap sons were not good at reading, they were not good at being an official, they were not good at general affairs, and they didn't understand miscellaneous things.One is like an antique fan to enjoy music, and the other is serious and pretends to be a clean stream.These two pieces of material are just mud that can't support the wall, and Shi Fei'er can only hehe in her heart if she expects them to revitalize Jia's mansion.As for the two daughters-in-law, one is smart, but she can't count on it now; the other only cares about herself, and she doesn't dare to count on it.The daughter is married, and it is rare to meet her.Except for two short-lived grandchildren, the rest of the grandchildren were born.The Communist Party of China only had these three melons and two dates, and Shi Feier thought about it for a while.All I can do is sigh.

Shi Fei'er put down the teacup and sighed, it's really not a good job to take care of this big family.It is said that he is the ancestor of this big family, but in fact, he is just looking at the scenery on the surface, and who can know the toil in his heart.Now, with so many thoughts, I can only calm down and take my time.

Shi Feier settled down and picked up the account book again to check it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more headache he felt.For a family like Rongguo Mansion, the bookkeeping is actually just a simple running account book, and all entries and exits are in the same book.The account books are made separately for each house and courtyard, or they are made separately when encountering major events.Anyway, when the total surplus is reported at the end of the year, the account for the year will be written off.Shi Feier held the account book and sneered, it was too easy to do something with it.In this way, I can't blame everyone for being able to build a garden, just add a few pennies, and you have everything.It seems that if one wants to see the family background of the Jia family, one has to study the accounts first.

It is easy to check the accounts, but it is not easy to find out the problem.To put it bluntly, if people can write here, they are naturally not afraid of checking.What's more, if you do your own investigation with great fanfare, if you don't find any major problems, you won't find anything next time. It's not good to startle the snake like this.But now I see a lot of miscellaneous items in the account book, and there is no classification, and the money and things are all recorded in one place. Besides, they are all vertical capital numbers. , I don't know how to use the advanced calculator here - the abacus. If I just add, subtract, and subtract a few items, I can deal with it mentally. If there are too many items, I can't deal with it.

Shi Fei'er pondered for a long time on a plan, and glanced at Bailu, the maid who was in charge of taking care of her daily expenses.This girl is meticulous and smart, she has a little fluency in writing, and she is also in charge of recording things in and out of Jiamu's room.What's more, Bailu's grandmother is Jia Mu's dowry maid, and the family is very trusted by Jia Mu.If this matter is taught to her, there should be no mistakes.Thinking of this, Shi Feier rushed to the egret who was embroidering her forehead under the window and waved: "Egret."

Hearing the old lady calling him, Bailu hurriedly got up, and asked respectfully: "The old lady is tired, I'll go and serve you tea."

Shi Fei'er nodded, "The eldest wife is pregnant, and the second wife is sick. My old lady reads the account book for a long time, and my eyes are dazzled and my head hurts."

Upon hearing this, Bailu said quickly: "Old lady, take a rest. This account book is not about you, even if I look at the densely packed characters for a while, I will faint. Old lady, I will pour you a bowl of nectar, and moisten it first." Soothe your throat."

"Not busy," Shi Feier stopped Bailu, "there are a lot of things these days, and there are fewer people in my room, so I can't make up the game. Today I suddenly thought of a new game, why don't we practice it first, wait All the people are here, let's kill the Quartet."

When Bailu saw Jiamu's opening, how could he dare to distract Jiamu's interest, so he quickly agreed.

Seeing Bailu's answer, Shi Fei'er said, "My game is quite simple, it's just a matter of counting and matching symbols. I'll draw ten symbols for you, and you write them down first. I'll talk about adding and subtracting numbers later, and you will give the result to me." I draw it with symbols. If you are right, you will be rewarded and if you are wrong, you will be punished.”

"Old lady, don't make fun of me," Bailu begged for mercy when he heard that he was going to be punished, "I'm clumsy, so I'm not good at this."

"It's just a game, it's just for fun." Shi Fei'er smiled, picked up the pen, and wrote on the rice paper from one to ten uppercase Chinese characters, and wrote their respective Arabic numerals on the bottom.Pass it to Bai Lu, "This is the symbol, you should remember it first."

Bailu took the paper, looked at the strange symbols, and thought they were interesting. After reading it for a while, he nodded to Mother Jia, saying that he had memorized them.Seeing that he had memorized it, Shi Feier explained a few more words, and then casually uttered a few simple arithmetic problems. At first Bailu was a little hesitant, but as he went on, he became faster and faster.The writing is much better than before.Even Egret himself said: "Old Tai Te, it's much faster to use symbols instead of Chinese characters."

Seeing that he had basically mastered it, Shi Feier nodded, "That's true." He said and handed the account book in his hand to Bai Lu, "I have one thing to teach you this time, and you will put the three months in this account book Use these symbols to copy the expenses and the amount of entry and exit to me again."

Seeing that Bailu was puzzled, Shi Feier picked up a pen and made a pattern, explained the rules and formats one by one, and asked Bailu to copy a few items according to the example. Afterwards, let’s put everything else in hand aside for the time being, and finish this in advance. If someone asks, you can say that it’s a new game I thought about. You played the game well today, and this plate of bird’s nest and cloud silk cake is a reward. Yours. When you finish, there will be another reward."

Egret thanked Jiamu happily. He had been with Jiamu for a long time, and because he was smart, he knew that this matter must be an important matter. Keep this in mind.It took more than ten days to copy and move around day and night to finish transcribing the account book according to Jia Mu's requirements.As soon as the egret was finished, he came to report to Jiamu excitedly.

Shi Feier flipped through the account book and nodded, "You did a good job. Take two pieces of jewelry from my jewelry box and treat them as my makeup for you in the future." If you are kind, you will receive the reward yourself.

This time, Shi Fei'er was holding the account book and looking at it carefully, and it was shocking.
