Chapter 121 Housekeeping
Chapter 121 ·Managing the Household
Tang Xueru jumped up and down with Dong Yuluo and Tang Xueping over to visit her. Bai Rongxuan hurriedly got out of bed in embarrassment and went up to her with her clothes on.
Tang Xueru saw her hurried and panicked look, covered her little mouth and laughed secretly.
Dong Yuluo held Bai Rongxuan's hand and asked with concern, "How are you? It looks like you didn't sleep well last night? Just now Xueru came to her grandmother and said that you haven't gotten up yet, and her grandmother said that you are a preoccupied child. What's the matter?
She kept all the words in her stomach and refused to talk about it. She must not have slept much last night. She was afraid that coming to see you would make her aunt suspicious, so she sent a few of us to come and see you. How are you? Do you feel well?
Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Tang Xueping also said at the side, "Don't hold back and say nothing. As the saying goes, a small illness will drag on a big illness, and a serious illness will drag on a serious illness. There are no outsiders here, so just tell the truth. Don't make your own decisions and hide it, otherwise it will be serious.
Wouldn’t it make the family worried?”
Bai Rongxuan said sheepishly, "It's not that serious. I just didn't sleep well last night and was a little bit lackluster."
Seeing that several people were still standing, she hurriedly asked them to sit down. This was the first time Dong Yuluo came to Bai Rongxuan's room. Although the room was not big, the furnishings were simple and clean, and the owner's elegant thoughts were revealed.
There is a fragrance that resembles orchids but not orchids, and resembles chrysanthemums but not chrysanthemums, which makes people feel relaxed when they smell it.
Hanzhu and Indigo, who came with Dong Yuluo, were busy serving tea and pouring water, which made Bai Rongxuan look embarrassed. She blushed and said, "The family has a small population, so we do all these things ourselves."
Every family has its own custom. A large population has its advantages, and a small population also has its advantages. When Dong Yuluo thinks about being in the Dong family, every time he sees his grandmother, Mrs. Dong, giving instructions, her head is crowded inside and outside.
I felt like I had a headache. Later, the incident with the Qiu family just happened
After getting acquainted with her, her grandmother even wanted to take her with her to teach her. She also threatened her that the relationship within the Qiu family was complicated and they were used to being wealthy. The number of people in the family was several times more than that of the Dong family, which made her feel uncomfortable.
If she learns more through her ears and eyes, the housekeeper might be able to use it in the future.
Dong Yuluo felt troubled when he thought of this, and said coquettishly to Mrs. Dong, "Didn't you say that the Qiu family already has a capable eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Hu? It's fine as long as she takes care of it, don't I need to worry about it?"
If I intervene again, she won’t think I’m going to compete with her for rights, so how will we get along in the future?”
Mrs. Dong looked at her kindly and said with a smile, "Silly girl, my grandma taught you these things, of course, not to let you compete with the Hu family. Although you are smart and well-behaved, in terms of housekeeping skills, you may not be Hu's opponent. I
Trust
After many inquiries, Mrs. Hu was smart and capable when she was a daughter at home. She was the most outstanding among all the children of Mr. Hu. You see, she was able to win over the eldest son of the Qiu family when she married into the Qiu family.
,
He took care of the affairs in the yard smoothly, and you could tell at a glance that he was someone who cared about the city government. Since ancient times, the Qiu family's huge family property will definitely be handed over to the eldest son of the Qiu family, and the Hu family will become
Li Zong
If you really get married, you will have to deal with this Hu family for the rest of your life, and your relationship with her will be particularly important. Otherwise, when she becomes the wife of the clan and wants to challenge you, it will not be a matter of a word.
Son?"
Dong Yuluo nodded as he listened, knowing that his grandmother was telling him the principles of getting along between sisters-in-law, so he listened very carefully.
Seeing this, Mrs. Dong smiled with satisfaction and continued, "Hu is from a famous family. She is the pampered apple of her parents' hands. She must not be able to bear any grievance. If you really become sisters-in-law with her, you can't let her notice.
If you feel threatened, you can't let her think that you are worthless and can be kneaded like a piece of dough. Otherwise, will she respect you in the future? People eat whole grains, and who doesn't have one?
When you have a headache and fever, not to mention that Mrs. Hu is still young, your first goal now must be to give birth to the eldest grandson of the Qiu family and secure your position as the eldest daughter-in-law. In the future, when you marry the Qiu family, you will catch up with her when she gives birth to a child and is in confinement.
Does this family still have to wait for her to organize things? What does your mother-in-law, Mrs. Deng, think of you? So there are some things you can not do, but you can't not do them, and housekeeping is one of them. "
Dong Yuluo's eyes lit up when he heard this. When something like this happened again, he took the initiative to get close to Mrs. Dong. He carefully remembered every word Mrs. Dong said in his heart, pondered over and over again about his intentions, and even bothered Dong Da with no worries.
Madam and Second Madam, ask them about housekeeping matters.
Mrs. Dong was extremely pleased to see that she understood her good intentions, and specifically told the first lady and the second lady to take more care of Dong Yuluo.
Dong Yuluo had no upbringing by her biological mother since she was a child, and Mrs. Liang was a master who only cared about herself. Both the first lady and the second lady felt sorry for her situation, not to mention that Dong Yuluo had been close to them since she was a child. There were some things they couldn't say in front of Mrs. Dong, because they were all entrusted to Dong Yuluo.
She never mentioned a single word when passing on news from it.
The first lady and the second lady treated her as their own daughter and told her some tips on housekeeping.
Tang Xueru saw Dong Yuluo quietly lost in thought while holding the tea cup. She took a few more curious glances and found that she had no idea what she was thinking in her eyes. She boldly stretched out her hand and waved it in front of her, "Cousin, what are you thinking about?
Focused?”
Dong Yuluo saw several sisters looking at him in surprise, and quickly came to his senses, "It's nothing... I just thought of other things."
Tang Xueru has always been a person who wants to get to the bottom of things. When he saw this, he asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Tang Xueping coughed lightly and glared at her fiercely, as if blaming her for talking too much.
Dong Yuluo smiled and said, "You are still young, and you won't understand this matter if I tell you. Xueping can listen to it, it will be useful in the future." She winked at Tang Xueping pretending to be mysterious, "When?
You might as well come to me when you have time, I have something good to say to you."
Tang Xueping was slightly stunned when she heard that it was related to her, but she still nodded in agreement.
Tang Xueru didn't understand. She pestered Dong Yuluo to ask questions. Dong Yuluo was helpless by her troubles and had to whisper a few words in her ear. After hearing this, Tang Xueru covered her mouth and snickered, and did not forget to look at Tang Xueping teasingly several times.
Eye.
Tang Xueping was even more confused. But later she finally found some time and ran to Dong Yuluo's room to sit down. Dong Yuluo told her all the housekeeping chores he had learned from the Dong family. Only then did Tang Xueping realize that she was about to get married.
People, although the Zhang family has just as few people as the Tang family, it is troublesome to take over without making mistakes. She
She kept it in mind carefully and used it later. Moreover, her husband Zhang Zili had a unique vision. The Zhang family's life was getting better and better, and the population was also increasing. However, she relied on the experience she learned from Huang and Dong Yuluo.
She managed the affairs of the inner house in an orderly manner and never had any problems. Not only did her husband respect her more, but Mrs. Zhang also had to take a high look at her.
Tang Xueping got along well in the Zhang family and lived a prosperous life. But this is all a story for another day.
Several people sat at Bai Rongxuan's place for a while. Aunt Li personally brought breakfast, which she cooked all by herself. Her eyes were red from the smoke. Bai Rongxuan was heartbroken, but Aunt Li didn't say anything and put the things away.
Just evacuated.
Dong Yuluo and the others came from Mrs. Tang's room and had breakfast with Mrs. Tang. Bai Rongxuan asked them to have more. Dong Yuluo and Tang Xueping both shook their heads and refused. Dong Yuluo said, "Did Xueping and I eat in the morning?"
"Young Master, I really can't swallow it anymore. It just gives you time to eat. Let's go out for a walk to eat."
It seems that he should go to Mrs. Tang's room to reply and tell Mrs. Tang about Bai Rongxuan's situation, so that the old lady will not worry.
The two of them got up and walked out, pushing Bai Rongxuan back who was about to take them out in person. Tang Xueping said, "Eat your food in peace, we will be back soon, what are you sending?"
Bai Rongxuan had no choice but to give up.
Tang Xueru did not leave, however. She ate another bowl of wontons with bone soup with Tang Xueru. While eating, she praised Grandma Li's cooking skills. The dough of the wontons with bone soup was crystal clear, and the filling was minced pork mixed with shrimps.
Shiitake mushrooms and scallops are extremely delicious, combined with the milky white bone soup, which makes you want to eat.
Bai Rongxuan didn't sleep much all night, and even though she had a very bad appetite, she ate a small bowl.
