Chapter 368

Silian replied with a smile,

"I'm just an errand. If I really took power, I should wait here for the women in charge. How could I make this trip? You think highly of me!"

When everyone heard this, after thinking about it, they really felt that it made sense. The wife of the family really didn't come out to buy it herself, and only Si Lian knew the reason.

She is the daughter-in-law of the concubine, and she lives in seclusion in the courtyard on weekdays. In this Mou mansion, except for Mama Wang, she has no confidantes. This is the first time that Liu Shi entrusted her with an errand. If something went wrong in the hands of the steward or the woman on the stove, I felt ashamed, so I simply went out and walked this trip in person. The market I was most familiar with when I was at my mother’s house, after inquiring about the market, Then hand it over to the people below, and you won't be afraid of being tricked!
I wrote it down, went back to the mansion, wrote it on a piece of paper, and presented it to Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu looked at it and said with a smile,

"It's really like doing something, inquire first before doing it..."

Silian replied,

"The price of goods in the capital this year is at least [-]% higher than in previous years. Our mansion is a little late to prepare. If we don't buy it in these two days, and wait a few more days, the price may even double!"

Liu nodded and said,
"Although there is no shortage of that little money in our house, it can be saved and there is no reason to waste it... Think about it and prepare it in two days!"

"Yes, mother-in-law!"

That night Mou Biao went back to the yard, saw the sign in the study, couldn't help laughing,
"Our family, Si Lian, has a deacon card now, so we can mobilize people in the mansion!"

Silian replied,

"This is also a temporary filling. It was because my second sister-in-law was inconvenient this year that I was asked to take the place..."

Mou Biao said,
"It's fine if you follow along. We will separate our family and set up our own house in the future. You will be the mistress of the house, and you will have to do these things by yourself in the future!"

He wants to have a full house with Silian's children and grandchildren, how can he do it without any means to be the head of the house?
The ladies in the capital are all personally taught and hosted by Zhongfu, and Silian has no one to teach, so I have to learn more with an open mind!

Silian nodded and said,
"My mother-in-law's ability to manage the house is praised by everyone. I will definitely learn it when I have the opportunity..."

It is a compulsory homework for this woman to preside over the family at home and take care of the backyard. Don’t underestimate the affairs of the family. If you do well, a family can prosper and the house can be peaceful. The wives and concubines are harmonious and beautiful. There is a difference between honor and inferiority.

Why do you think that those men in the family who are fascinated by sex, spoil their concubines and kill their wives, or even divorce their main wife to help their concubines take over the position, why are they looked down upon by others?
It's all because everyone's mistress has been taught by strict teachers since she was a child, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are second, and the most important thing is to take care of the household affairs at home. One must be able to write and count, understand the principles of the world, and be able to socialize when going out. Husband and son-in-law advance and retreat together to help, and when they return home, they can teach their husbands and children, discipline their concubines, serve their parents-in-law, and teach their children. The more powerful ones have good cooking skills, good acupuncture skills, and even grow flower seeds. Grass, you must be proficient in poetry, books, and Buddhist scriptures. Such a headed mistress was cultivated by her parents for more than ten years when she was in her natal family. Those who inherit the family business and continue the incense can get the full support of the mother-in-law's two families. If the husband dares to be disrespectful and doesn't like to watch, he can immediately find the mother-in-law's family to say "reasonable"!

Therefore, our women are tolerant and capable, and the sons and daughters who teach them will be excellent. However, it is not right for a concubine to be a wife and mother. How can the sons and daughters become talents?

Such a patriarch who doesn't consider the family's future will definitely bring the whole family down, and whoever marries with them will be asking for trouble!

So then again, Mou Biao would marry a woman of Silian's background, no wonder he shocked the jaws of all the relatives in the family!
Although Mou Biao is a concubine, he is only a promising concubine. In the future, if he separates his family, he can support himself. With his ability, it is not impossible to marry a lady of everyone, such as Miss You Jiu. Yes, but Mou Biao chose Silian!

Although Si Lian was also an official lady in her previous life, she was exiled in the mountain village. Except for an old lady next to her who called her Miss every day, she hadn't learned anything about being a lady. She knew her husband Although I never mentioned it, but in fact, in order to marry me, I gave up a lot of immediate benefits.

Xiao Lin has come here for her, she can't just sit back and enjoy the success, and she is not a problem with the common affairs, she can write and count, she is smarter than the manager who has been doing poor work outside for many years, but the poetry and books are not good enough, so in the Living in a simple house at home is all about reading and practicing handwriting. As for socializing outside, there is no rush. I have to eat a few more books in my stomach, and after I have something to say, I will go out to chat with people so that I will not be caught. People secretly laugh at superficiality.

In short, step by step, although she has been a human being in two lives, she doesn't have the ability to never forget. She can learn things that people have learned for more than ten years in one day. She just needs to calm down and learn slowly!
Mama Wang watched coldly from the sidelines, she admired her young wife's calmness very much, this talented person is often stunning when he is young, but when he is middle-aged, he can no longer see the sharpness, but why, Doesn't that mean that he has no calmness and refuses to take a step?

In her opinion, as long as people are not stupid and are willing to calm down and study hard, they will eventually achieve success. This is especially true for martial arts. Like the young lady, you take your time and spend half a month memorizing the acupoints you taught, The graph of meridians is a little slow, but once you remember it, you will never forget it for a lifetime. This is the truly powerful person!
On the second day, Si Lian took the deacon's card and met with the two stewards in the front yard. How many items do you want to buy? List them one by one, and hand them over to the two.
"Please buy according to the list and price above..."

The two stewards took a look at the price, looked at each other and said bitterly,

"Madam Eighth Young Master, this price is the cheapest in the market. The money is not spent, but the appearance is really bad. If it is used to feed the masters of the house, I am afraid that Madam will blame us if she sees it! "

Si Lian nodded upon hearing that,

"Then according to what you two think, what price is appropriate?"

The two looked at each other again, and one of them thought for a while and replied,

"According to this price, at least [-]% will be added!"

Silian looked up at him, thought for a while and said,

"At most [-]%, if it doesn't work... then return the list to me, and I'll send someone out to buy it myself!"

The two men hesitated and said nothing, Si Lian said,

"It's okay, the two stewards are in a difficult situation, so let me handle it myself!"

The two said reluctantly,
"This matter is my errand for the front yard. How can I work for Mrs. Ba Shao, let's wait for the villain!"

Immediately took the list and retreated, Silian saw that they were about to leave the yard, stepped forward two steps to the corridor and said,

"You two stewards, remember that [-]% of the price has been added to the price, and the best thing is the best. If it is worse...then you two will have to make up the price yourself!"

The two of them paused for a moment, and when they turned around, their expressions were a little bad.
"Remember...remember!"

After saying that, she turned around and left, waiting for others to leave, that Hongyu came to her side and asked Silian,

"Madam Ba Shao, the price we asked at the market yesterday is the same price, and the things look very good, why let the stewards do it, and add [-]% to them, isn't it obvious that they are filling their pockets Is it?"

Silian smiled and said,

"Well, they may not be able to get it into their pockets. We went to the market yesterday to ask. Those peddlers will probably lower the price in order to maintain the long-term business of Mou Mansion, so the price is actually not that low..."

After a pause, he said,
"And those who are in charge have been shopping outside for many years, and they already have a lot of long-term supply shops in their hands. I only help manage it once, and I can't force them to change suppliers. There are too many things, it is easy to make mistakes if you change them all, and secondly, it will be hated by people, so it is better to give them some sweetness and let them get some..."

How much oil and water these stewards can eat in these years of transactions, they are clear in their hearts. If they can sit on this seat, they must have some status and background in the house. There is no need for them to The [-]% profit offends the person,

"And...they won't get much of these two profits, and the relevant people will share some..."

This kind of thing should be kept secret, everyone should divide it up, if you eat alone, it is easy to be reported by others!

But Silian didn't make it easy for them. She had already reported the price on the previous list to Mrs. Liu, and she would report it to her mother-in-law after the price that the stewards bought was reported later. How to think about it is up to Mrs. Liu!
At that time, if Mrs. Liu wants to make trouble, then she has evidence and evidence. If Mrs. Liu does not investigate, she will be fooled by saying that prices in Beijing and China have risen too fast, and the fluctuation of about [-]% is not conspicuous!
As for the stewards below, compared to the [-]% to [-]% oil and water in previous years, this year is not easy, but it is not too sad. Although there is dissatisfaction in their hearts, it is not easy to flare up. After a while, it's over.

So to do this is to tell the steward and Mrs. Liu that Mrs. Ba Shao is not the one to be fooled by others. She knows it in her heart, but she just keeps it secret and doesn't go beyond her duty. She has the final say on how to deal with it. Do not offend anyone!

The housekeepers of the Mou family were quite good at handling things. With the list, things were delivered to the house one after another the next day. Si Lian called the people on Dazao to pick up the goods.
"I can recognize the good and bad of those things. If you find something wrong at this time, it's their fault if you didn't enter the mansion. If you find something wrong after entering the mansion, it's your fault..."

She spoke softly and was young. The people at the big stove didn't take it seriously, thinking to themselves,
"It's us who are collecting the left and right, isn't it... only we know, when we put it in the warehouse, and then find out that there is a problem, we quietly throw it away, will the masters go to see everything? "
