Xia Zhu looked at Ming Lan, and Ming Lan nodded her head kindly. She mustered up the courage and said: "At the age of eleven, it won’t rain and the harvest in the fields is not good. My brothers are going to marry daughters-in-law again. , Dad found a man and sold the three of our sisters to be girls. I was lucky, and I came here and I have delicious food every day!"
There was already a sneer and a chuckle, Ming Lan glanced over it faintly, there was no sound, everyone stood up; if the eyebrows recorded these quickly, only the sound of the rustling brush tracing the paper.
"What happened later?" Dan Ju asked gently.
Xia Zhu became more courageous: "Later, Mother Chang picked me and taught me the rules for more than half a year, and then went into the house to serve." Opposite Danju and the others, Xia Zhu naturally has a sense of inferiority, just like in a unit. Junior high school students see the envy of master students.
Next, Ruo stopped writing and asked blankly: "Come and press a handprint. If you find that you have deceived the master in the future, this is proof. Don't blame others at that time."
"No, no!" Xia Zhu shook his head and pressed her finger prints.
Ming Lan smiled and said: "Okay, you are fine, come over to me."
Xia Zhu heard the amnesty. He sighed in relief and ran to Minglan and stood there. Everyone in the hall gradually understood what was going on. Some of them turned pale, some had doubts, and some seemed dissatisfied.
Minglan ignored them, looked at Mama Lai, and then waved to a beautiful girl who had big eyes, big waist and breast augmentation, and she was charming and charming, "Yes... , It's you, come here."
The girl looked suspiciously at a middle-aged woman next to her, then took a deep breath and came forward. Dan Ju's gentle smile on her face pulled her to stand in front of her. The girl seemed quite courageous and not shy. Her eyes were constantly looking at Minglan. Lu Zhi looked upset, went over and pulled the Dan orange away, turned her head and smiled: "Madam, let me ask this sister. OK?"
Ming Lan smiled and nodded, and asked Qin Sang beside him to change her eyebrows.
Before Lvzhi asked, the girl said with a smile: "The servant is called Mingyue, I am..."
"This name is not possible!" Lvzhi interrupted her quickly, "This name rushed to my wife, go back and ask you Lao Zi Niang to change one, remove the first word!"
Mingyue blushed immediately, and looked back at the woman next to Lai's mother. There seemed to be an upset in her eyes. Lu Zhi ignored her and just continued to ask.
"How old are you this year?"
"Fifteen and a half years old."
"Is the family born or bought it from outside?"
"Family has a son!" Mingyue was quite proud, "My mother is Mama Diao. She was the companion of the fifth old lady. My father is..."
Green Zhi interrupted her again: "Can they be in this house?"
"Naturally!" Mingyue turned her head proudly, and the woman next to Lai's mother and the middle-aged man behind her stepped forward and bowed.
"Then you don't need to talk about it, you will know when you turn around and ask them." Luzhi said like a judge, "Are there anyone else in the family? Where are they now?"
"Yes." Mingyue gritted her teeth, "There is also an older sister and two older elders. The older sister is serving by Miss Ling. Brothers...There are no errands yet, waiting for the second master and the second lady to speak." /
Qin Sang recorded with a solemn expression, and Lu Zhi still has no expression: "That is to say, you are not with the whole family? Okay, how about you, have you been a errand before?"
Mingyue proudly said: "I was picked to serve Ms Hui..."
"Waiting for a girl?" Lu Zhi interrupted her and she was very used to it.
Mingyue's face was embarrassed: "Third...third class; but I always stay with girls..."
"How old were you when you entered the mansion to serve?"
"Ten...13 years old; but I..."
"It means that you have only served for one or two years. When did you become third-class?"
"...It was... half a year ago, but Master Yang often praised me..."
"Cannot read?"
"Know some..."
"How much do you know? Speak more clearly! Can you read the Three-Character Classic? How about a thousand-character text?"
"...Half of the three-character classics have been read, but the rest are not..." Mingyue looked at Qin Sang, who was writing like flying in front of him, and the talented Ruomei, blushing like pig blood.
"What rewards can you receive during this period? Silver? Jewelry? Clothes?"
"Yes!" Mingyue blushed, "Grandma gave me a lot of new clothes, and told me to serve the second lady and the second master, and praise me..."
"Have you ever received any punishment? Scolded? Sorry? For what reason!"
"Absolutely not!"
"You can figure it out clearly!" Green Branch said coldly, "This is for fingerprints. It doesn't matter if you made a small mistake before. Anyway, you have moved to a new place, but if you see your wife, you will lie. That would be unusable!"
Mingyue was embarrassed for a while. In front of these many people, she looked back at Mother Diao several times, her face turned gray, and she whispered softly: "I have only been scolded by the big grandmother a few times, because I hurt Miss Lehui’s things, nothing else..."
"It's done!" Lu Zhi clapped his hands, indicating that the questioning was over.
Mingyue pressed her finger prints with a very ugly face, and slowly stepped back. Tears seemed to roll in her eye sockets. As soon as she went back, she hugged Mama Diao and choked softly.
Ming Lan nodded towards Lvzhi, expressing satisfaction. She mentioned in advance that if there are so many people in the mansion, if each of them tells a long story, it will probably be asked until midnight. The aim is that the incident should be as clear and serious as possible, and the personal resume should be as clear as possible. Any difficulties and tragic past events should be omitted temporarily, and you can ask again when you need it.
At this moment, she glanced at the corner of her eye and saw a familiar figure standing on the edge of the hall. She lowered her head to think, secretly funny.
The two people asked, and the rest of the people all understood Minglan's intentions, some said that it didn't matter, some were very angry, and some were a little sneaky, and there was a buzzing noise.
Ming Lan looked at it almost, stood up, everyone immediately calmed down, Ming Lan smiled and said: "Everyone has seen it. Most of you will use it in the future. You need to use people, so you need to know yours. Ability, what errands have you done before, how did you do? This is what you can do, isn’t it?"
As I said, most people gradually settled down, and many people even became calm, especially the daughter-in-law of Liao Yong and the daughter-in-laws around her. On the contrary, they felt that this would be more beneficial to the outsiders.
Liao Yong's wife took a step forward and echoed loudly: "What the madam said is extremely true! This is both easy and understandable. Madam didn't know us before, so instead of asking us to try and ask each other in a confused way, it is better to be so bright. Right!"
The people on Mama Lai’s face were a little ugly, but they didn't dare to refute for a while, just bowed their heads and winked at each other.
Ming Lan smiled at Liao Yong's wife, walked a few steps, and stood condescendingly in front of the crowd, with a gentle tone: "When this is done, I will arrange the manpower in the mansion. Before that, I have to Let me just say something first. I think that the word "sincerity" is the most important thing for the master and the servant to treat each other. From now on, we have to stay together for a long time, up and down each other, it is reasonable. Therefore, I only hope that you will not be confused. I don’t dare to use the crime of “deceiving”! This ugly thing, let’s put it here first."
The young lady is dignified and beautiful, with her head upright, speaking slowly and gracefully, looking at her gentleness, but no one dares to look down upon her.
Mother Lai and the crowd looked at each other. Since they came here, they have long been thinking about taking power. Who knows that they first met Gu Tingye who looked like a living Hades, with a dark face all day long, and they were not allowed to talk about anything; Mrs. Tai forced a few words. In front of everyone in the house, he said sternly that the mistress should arrange the affairs of the house, but he hadn't been the mistress at that time?
So they waited and waited, and finally waited until Minglan came in. They wanted to see that Minglan was young and knew nothing, but the newlyweds were thin-skinned. As the elderly of the Gu family, they relied on the faces of the elders of the Gu family. It can be done as soon as you ask for it; who knows that Minglan hid in the house for two days before coming out, and she didn't say how to assign errands when she came out, so she came to'check the bottom' first!
Mama Lai’s face turned a few times, and she finally couldn’t help stepping forward and distinguishing herself loudly: "Madam is very considerate. People who come in from outside must be interrogated clearly, but we are the Gu family for several lifetimes. I’m an old man, why is this? Madam, but if you don’t understand, you can ask Mrs. Tai, four old ladies, five old ladies!"
Ming Lan constricted to smile, and only looked at her faintly, her eyes were cold and clear, and there was only a hint of chill, mother Lai's forehead was slowly sweating, she really did not understand, a teenage boy How can a girl look like a deterrent!
There was silence up and down the hall, and everyone was waiting to see.
Ming Lan stared at Mama Lai and slowly said: "Mama Lai, today you are the second time to rebut me."
Mother Lai immediately knelt down and said in a trembled voice: "The old slave dare not, the old slave just reminds his wife."
Ming Lan said coldly: "I thought that the elders sent you here to be helpers, not to be my ancestors."
Mama Lai sweats for a while, saying: "The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave doesn't dare..."
Ming Lan narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke slowly, with a cold sweetness in her voice: "Mother Lai, what did I say to you when you refuted me this morning?"
Mama Lai looked up, her eyes narrowed, and she dared not to speak, Minglan smiled and added in a low voice: "Don't say you forgot, you have such a good time, you have a bad memory, so you should go back to support the elderly. "
Mama Lai was agitated, and said quickly: "Madam said... Madam said, what Madam said, let's do what we do!"
Ming Lan smiled brightly, the pear vortex loomed out, and she couldn’t be confided: "Mama Lai is so memorable." Immediately, she smiled and said lightly, "Next time, don’t forget it."
Mama Lai kowtows her head again and again and backs away, already wet with sweat.
Ming Lan seemed to be a little tired, and said tiredly: "Liao Yong's family, do you think, who is the most respected and noble in this house?"
"Since, I am naturally the master." Liao Yong's wife quickly replied.
Minglan asked again: "Then who am I?"
Liao Yong's wife said loudly: "You are the mistress of this house!"
"...Very good." A faint tiredness appeared on Minglan's face, and then slowly sat down in the high-back chair above, sipping tea, "I can't remember this, this mansion Can't be used in it."
This time, who else would dare to talk nonsense? Danju, Lvzhi, and others were overjoyed, and they also carried the pride of exceptional satisfaction. They even looked at people with arrogance, originally they were worried about Minglan The concubine of a fourth-rank civil servant was bullied and looked down upon in such a big family, and they were even worried.
Who knows that Minglan's heart is like a stone, without fear, with a calm look, a light smile, not even a temper, not even a word, and it calms the scene—they can't help their eyes Shine.
Everyone stepped back to answer questions in turn. The outside of the hall gradually became empty. Minglan left Xiao Tao and Xia Zhu to serve, plus a few accountants who had just been called, and several errands Aside.
Minglan sat lazily on the chair, turned her head and whispered: "Mr. Gongsun, you can see enough."
A middle-aged scribe in a green robe and long gown standing in the corner of the hall originally came out Shi Shiran. He walked to Minglan and bowed his hand, lowered his bow, and said with a smile: "Crazy being rude, Please peace to Madam."
Ming Lan got up and grabbed the guts, respectfully repaid, and then asked Gongsun Baishi to sit down in the first seat.
"Why is this madam?" Gongsun Baishi held up the tea bowl, smiling a bit old and cunning, "My wife was going to send an errand today."
Ming Lan looked at him for a while before slowly saying: "I heard a little story when I was young. In ancient times, there was an emperor who was not too stupid, but he had a group of very cunning ministers. The emperor clearly wanted to pick two. A beauty, but the next person searched for beauties all over the country, and people complained everywhere; the emperor just wanted to build a small garden, but the next person searched for money from the whole country, and the people who got it didn’t make a living... Within a few years, the country died; the emperor When I was beheaded, I still felt wronged."
Gongsun Baishi looked at Ming Lan with interest, and when she continued, Ming Lan continued: "From ancient times to the present, how many things have been corrupted by the four words'improper use of people'. Be the West. Therefore, if you want to be governed, you should rule people first; no matter what, if there is no credible and suitable person to do it, it is useless to think well!"
Ming Lan turned to look outside the hall, with a leisurely expression: "If you want to use them, at least you know who they are." To manage a business, a detailed and accurate personnel file is necessary; and if they dare to lie, She has an excuse to drive people away.
Gongsun Baishi's expression gradually became solemn, and he looked at Minglan quietly for a long time before he bowed his hand respectfully and whispered: "The Governor is fortunate to marry a beautiful woman."
