Chapter 097 Where is the adult?
In this way, it is too troublesome, and it is troublesome and time-consuming.
Although there are women who boil water every day and let it cool for them, those who are not used to drinking still find it troublesome.
"Boil the water and let it cool before drinking, which will reduce the possibility of diarrhea." Wu Youwei couldn't explain the microbes to them, so he had to say in general: "This will make everyone less sick."
Don't underestimate diarrhea, everything revives in spring, as well as various bacteria and viruses; summer is when there are the most mosquitoes, who knows if there are insect eggs in the water?Dysentery in autumn cannot be ignored; winter is better, because people will naturally think about drinking hot water instead of cold water in winter.
"So that's how it is." Only then did Wu Da realize that the master was doing it for their own good.
"Also, you must feed them well. If you don't eat well when doing physical work, you will be fine when you are young. When you are old, you will get tired easily and get sick all over your body." Wu Youwei especially emphasized this point.
"They live in Wujia Village now, and they have meat and vegetable buns for breakfast, millet porridge, and pickled vegetable sticks; lunch is one meat, one vegetarian, and one soup; dinner is one vegetarian, one soup." Wu Da laughed and said: "You can be full.
Because of this, many people say that their master is a good man, a very good man!
What is wages?
Wherever you go to work, you will be paid.
But where to work, you can still eat so well, and you can eat well, but it's rare.
Even some people have been to the capital to work, and they say that the treatment is not as good as here.
"That's good." Wu Youwei was happy, but he saw that the people at work were all dressed...not good, because the clothes of ancient people were very messy, even if they were short, it was not convenient. When working, roll up your arms and sleeves.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so it won't work.
Wu Youwei went back to look for Xu Niang again, and drew a simple half-sleeve T-shirt and cropped pants, forget about the straw sandals, everyone can weave, so he didn't prepare.
This kind of design is simple, and the fabric used is still small. When there were many divisions in his family, the homemade cloth from the Wu family was of the color of an old man, and most members of the family did not wear it.
The fabrics of this era cannot withstand storage, so it is better to take them out and make them into work clothes.
Xu Niang really doesn't know how to say master, this design is too simple.
"Master, if you insist on this, the servants still have some work on their hands, especially the clothes for that one, why don't you give these simple needlework to Xiaolian and the others?" Xu Niang really didn't have time, so the master asked I need it urgently
"Xiao Lian?" Wu Youwei was taken aback, "Xiao Miao and the others...are they still young?"
Isn't this using child labor?
Usually Wu Youwei takes good care of the children. Xiao Lian and the others have already become adults in ordinary people's homes, but he doesn't. Boil some big bone soup and drink it. "It's not too young." Xu Niang pointed her finger at Wu Youwei: "Xiao Lian and Xiao Kui are both ten years old, Xiao Miao is 11 years old, and Xiao Fen is the oldest, 12 years old. When they reach 45, they will be able to be young." A big maid has used it, so she must know how to needle and thread. Wu Youwei is embarrassing, junior high school students make clothes for him?
"It just so happens that you don't have to worry about it. It's easy to cut, and you can sew it with a needle. You don't need embroidery or accessories. It's simple and convenient, and it's more suitable for them to practice their hands when they are beginners." Xu Niang said: "Learn for a year or two. Yes, if you know how to make tea, cook vegetables and make snacks, you will be a qualified maid. At that time, Peony and Rose should also get married? Master, do you want to take it into the house?"
"Marry! Marry!" Wu Youwei hurriedly said: "At that time, I will give them their citizenship, good citizenship! This will be their natal family from now on.
For these people he bought, Wu Youwei treats them as lifelong employees, but the good years of the maids are only a few years, and he doesn't want to delay their flowering period, he just wants to marry after the end, so he feels better.
He didn't think about staying at home or anything!
Xu Niang was even happier: "What about the slave girl's daughter?"
"Marry, too. When the time comes, this place will be her natal family. I'll support them when they get married. They'll be girls from a good family. Don't worry, don't worry." Wu Youwei hurriedly said: "Well, this thing is going to be troublesome. Mother taught Xiao Miao and the others, I still have something to do, so I'll go first!"
After speaking, he ran away quickly.
The women living here in the backyard for a while now include all age groups from childhood to adulthood, but they may not be used to it. Except for business, the women in the backyard seldom go out, not even to the garden.
They may be afraid that the master will suddenly make a fuss and what will happen to them!
Because the master does not have a housemate or concubine by his side, and his wife is far away... After calling here, I have never seen the master propose a marriage or anything, and I have not seen a matchmaker appearing 1].
Everyone is scared too!
But this time because Wu Youwei came, Xu Niang spoke loudly to him, and the screen windows that everyone used were not soundproof in the hot weather, so when they heard what grandpa said, they were all stunned for a moment.
Wu Youwei didn't know that they had heard it, so of course he ran away frankly.
The girls who heard his words were silent for a long time, and finally said like roses with thorns: "In the future, we must serve the master well and work hard. This is our future home."
Well, it's our home. "Peony suddenly burst into tears.
This place is actually not big, and the master is just a man. It is much worse than the mansion she used to stay in, but there is no intrigue or conspiracy here. I go to bed early every day, wake up early, and eat homely food, but it is heart-warming. .There is no master who covets the beauty, and there is no jealous look in the eyes, and in the future they can also marry and have children, be a couple with flat hair, and live a normal life.If they wanted to be concubines, they would have done it long ago, so why offend the master's family and be sold?Soon because they don't want to be a concubine or concubine?
After Wu Youwei went out, it was already noon, and just in time, the butler came back with a lot of things, but when he was in Wujia Village, he had already stopped once, leaving behind a pile of ingredients and green bricks bought for Wujia Village, and brought Immediately drove to the villa.What he brought back were some daily necessities, such as salt, candles, tea and so on.
The salt needs to be re-refined, because the freshly bought salt contains aSomething...pretty good.
The candles are for the lanterns at home. My master hates the darkness outside, so he needs some light even at night.
Tea is the most expensive thing, but you can't live without this stuff, you have to have some good ones, the master drinks a little tea every day, and the leftover tea dregs are used to make tea...
Seeing the man, Lin Su's housekeeper reported that the purchase went very smoothly, and he also bought the wood for the medicine cabinet. In addition to building twenty courtyard houses, Wujia Village also needs to build a medicine hall. A general store, and a carpenter's and bricklayer's shop.
Wu Youwei designed this kind of shop as a separate shop, the house is not behind, but there are two yards built behind it, if any of them wants to take an apprentice or live behind the shop, it doesn't matter.
It's just that these people are all in one family, and it is necessary to build a house alone. In the future, after having a child and marrying a wife, you can't let the daughter-in-law in the shop, right?
So Mr. Wu thought about it for a long time...
"It's good that everything goes well." Wu Youwei told Butler Lin Su about Wantong again. He thought that there was no need to hide the family affairs from the butler, who was very capable.
"Wantong?" Butler Lin Su frowned.
Wu Youwei felt a little uneasy when he saw it: "What's wrong?"
"It sounds familiar... can I meet him?" Butler Lin Su was used to being cautious. He couldn't remember it for a while, but he should be able to remember it when he saw him.
"He's in my bedroom. I'll take you to meet him. Maybe he has something to ask you to send to the city." Wu Youwei felt that in this home, the housekeeper could meet anyone.
So he led the butler out of the study, through the hall, into his room, through the flower door, into the bedroom.
"This is my housekeeper, Lin Su. If you have anything to do in the future, if I'm not around, you can call the housekeeper to deal with it." Wu Youwei introduced it as soon as he entered the door happily.
But when Lin Su saw Wantong, he frowned, then knelt down and kowtowed: "Little Lin Su, I have met adults.
Wu Youwei was stunned by such a grand ceremony.
grown ups?
what adult?
Where are the adults?
"Have you seen me?" Wantong couldn't be sure who it was because he couldn't see Butler Lin Su's face.
Because he was resting with his eyes closed just now, when he opened his eyes after hearing the movement, the first thing he saw was Wu Youwei, and then the butler behind him, but after a quick glance, the butler knelt down for him.
Even call him "adult"!
"Young one..... I met the adults at the former master's house. At that time, the adults came to take away the second young master..." Butler Lin Su trembled: "The second son of Lin Hanyi's family, a member of the etiquette department Son Lin Jie."
When he said this, Wantong remembered that Lin Jie's case was indeed taken by Jin Yiwei.
When Wu Youwei heard this, Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Rites, is also a Beijing official. Although the Ministry of Rites is usually a Qingshui Yamen, sometimes, the Ministry of Rites is also very popular, and no matter which department it is in the Sixth Ministry, there are ice respects and charcoal respects. , can have a lot of extra money a year.
Such a Beijing official usually has a few years of experience abroad before being transferred back to Beijing to serve. He has a wide network and political achievements, but such a family has their second son taken away?
Then the position of this "adult" is open to discussion.
I also thought that he had been to the backyard of the Wu family, and he didn't seem to shy away from it...
So, Wu Youwei made a very surprising move in front of Butler Lin Su!
He lifted the quilt, Wantong's eyes sharpened, Wu Youwei made a quick move, and took out Wantong's... crotch!
Wantong...!! ! "
Lin Su..."...!
Both of them were dumbfounded, is this person crazy?
"Not from Dongchang?" Wu Youwei muttered to himself, "Not a eunuch?"
Wantong's face was black: "What did you say?"
Lin Su was startled, and kowtowed all the time: "My lord, I beg your forgiveness! I beg your forgiveness!"
Wu Youwei chuckled: "I thought I didn't see clearly last night. Steward Lin called you, the lord who can come to my place in the middle of the night wearing night clothes and covered in blood is probably not the son of the eunuch from Dongchang. ...Jin Yiwei. He is really curious!
This person is good-looking, and his eyes are even better, especially since he didn't shy away from the backyard. If he is really a "factory flower", it will be a novelty.
Wantong is so angry!
The cold air on your body should not come out like money.
If it weren't for his poor health, he would definitely be able to dodge the attack just now!
I didn't expect, oh, I didn't expect that a good Juren would be such a wretched guy, it's really embarrassing for literati.
Even a hooligan would not be able to do this move!
"Who do you think I am?" Wantong's forehead was throbbing with veins.
"People from Dongchang!" Wu Youwei boasted bluntly, "Are all the sons of Dongchang eunuchs?"
"So, you think I'm a eunuch?" Wantong already had the urge to strangle him to death.
Butler Lin kept kowtowing for mercy.
Wu Youwei couldn't see it.
"Steward Lin, get up, it's alright, Master Wantong, we are all acquaintances." Wu Youwei wanted to pull Steward Lin up.
Butler Lin is crying in his heart!
My master has no eyesight!
Can anyone's... crotch be taken out?
This is simply a birthday star who eats arsenic and thinks his life is too long!
"Master..." Butler Lin is so anxious, don't mention it.
"Get up, what are you doing kneeling on the ground?" Wu Youwei pulled hard, but he didn't get up.
Butler Lin is taller, heavier, and stronger than him.
"Get up!" Wantong yelled with a dark face.
