All Hail Cousin Brother

"Mother Yang, it's been three months, and the sparse vegetables and fruits in the villages in the suburbs of Beijing are also growing, and the green vegetables on the market are only worth a pound. Vegetables are rare in winter, so this is the price.”

Yu Youyao's opening stunned everyone present, and many people took a breath.

The ledger was brought by the old lady when she was called. The eldest lady never planned to see it in advance, so their eldest lady is a secretive person who can read the ledger by herself.

The ledger purchased in the big kitchen is very trivial and complicated. Even people who can read the ledger do not know much about the internal affairs, and Mrs. Yang's housekeeper has not been able to see it all for many years.

But the eldest lady glanced at it casually, and saw the promise at a glance, which really taught people to be timid, how dare they fool.

I really didn't expect that the eldest lady was not even ten years old, so she could read the account books like this, and she couldn't blame the old lady for letting the eldest lady take care of her.

The atmosphere became more condensed, and everyone saw Yu Youyao's expression becoming cautious.

Yang's mother, who was named in public, changed her expression. She put away the slightest bit of disapproval in her heart, and immediately bowed and said, "Back to the eldest lady, this spring is a bit colder than previous years, until February. It only gradually warmed up inside, the vegetables grew later than usual, and the prices were much higher. In addition, the vegetables ordered by the old slave were ordered from the best farms in the suburbs of Beijing, which were better than those in the market, and the value was natural. More expensive……"

This excuse was a good one, but it didn't convince Yu Youyao.

At the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu attached great importance to agriculture. The imperial court distributed new seeds to farmers for free every year. The new seeds were successfully planted.

The local officials also encouraged farmers to plant new seeds. Once they are planted, they will be considered political achievements. When evaluating performance, the word "excellent" is indispensable, and it is easy to move up.

In the previous dynasty, the situation that fruit thinning was more expensive than oil was not seen in the Zhou Dynasty.

Even in winter, there are farms who want to build grass sheds to grow vegetables, and some large farms even use heated kang to grow vegetables. Although fruit thinning is expensive in winter, it is not so outrageous.

Not to mention the usual time.

Yang's mother is a servant. She is not less greedy, but she is not so bold and greedy. The money can only go into Yang's pocket.

But Yu Youyao didn't plan to break it, but on the first day of the housekeeper, Li Wei was still very necessary: ​​"I remember that our family has a village in the suburbs of Beijing, and they all grow vegetables and fruits, and they will send fresh ones to the house every day. My mother's name is The Zhuangzi will also send some fruits, vegetables, mountain delicacies, and game from the Zhuangzi to the mansion every three forks and five places.

Obviously, it was a fake account.

In fact, she didn't buy that many green vegetables, but her money was confusing.

Many people present were already sweating coldly. The ladies and ladies who were raised in the boudoir, although they were well-versed in literature and calligraphy, all had some truths, but they were not able to understand the commonplace affairs such as firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Even if he can read some ledgers, but he doesn't know what's going on outside, he can be fooled by a few words.

This eldest lady is also very shrewd, glanced at the ledger, and found out the doorway inside.

Yang's mother felt a little nervous when she felt a little nervous in her heart: "I don't know what the eldest miss is, it's colder this year, the vegetables in the village are not as good as in previous years, and the suburbs of Beijing are also far away. Some are not new, and the old lady also knows about the purchase of the old slave."

After saying a word, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her body, and the sweaty clothes were pressed against her back, but it made her back feel cold, and her whole body was cold to the bones.

Yesterday, Madam wanted to hand over the power of housekeeping, so she found a few useful housekeepers and beat them, to the effect that they would forget the old master if they had a new master.

Let them clean up the ledger again, don't let Mama Liu see the clue.

They are used to doing this, and naturally they are not afraid.

Although the vegetables are a lot more expensive, the excuses can be found. Although Madam Liu is decent, she is also a slave. Go and chew with the old lady.

But Madam Liu hadn't checked the account book yet, but it was rumored that the eldest lady's housekeeper was stunned for a moment.

Madam Liu is a slave, and they are not afraid to carry out the eldest lady.

But the eldest lady is the master and the old lady is backing it up. The eldest lady asks, they can't fool them, but they have to make it clear?

But this kind of thing, how can you understand it, but it is too much to say.

After listening to Yu Youyao, she smiled lightly: "It was with the consent of my mother, so let's do it!"

Mother Yang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about the name of the eldest lady, and putting the eldest lady here will work. This matter is over, and you will have to be more cautious in the future.

But as soon as she had time to wipe off her sweat, she heard the young lady ask in a clear voice, "Is there anyone who sent green vegetables from the village today?"

What does it mean? Mother Yang was stunned for a moment, and said quickly, "I won't be there until about the afternoon."

Yu Youyao nodded: "When they come over, they will come over and spread the word. I heard from Mama Yang that the green vegetables in Zhuangtou are not growing well this year, so other crops may also be affected. Knowing the situation of other crops, after all, the success of the house depends on the harvest of the village, so there is no reason for the house to suffer."

Yang's mother felt dizzy, but she didn't expect that the eldest lady could not only read the ledger, but she was also shrewd and could even think of this one.

The crops in the village are not good, because the people in the village have not taken care of them well. No one dares to take such a responsibility lightly, but they have to show their feet.

She didn't dare to involve Mrs.

At that time, the wrong person will be her own, and the responsibility will be her own.

Mrs. Yu sat on the side without making a sound, not even pinching the beads, so she watched such a good show, and even her cloudy eyes lit up.

Yaoyao is really a clever little ghost, and this method of killing chickens and monkeys almost stunned her.

After everyone retreated, Madam Yu said to Madam Liu, "The steward at the shop outside and the steward at the village will also call over tomorrow to let me meet."

Madam Liu responded with a smile.

Madam Yu nodded with satisfaction, and asked Yu Youyao, "How do you know the value of green vegetables outside?"
