Chapter 146 Reward and Punishment

Qin Ersi did not continue to get involved in this issue.

After saying something with the fourth aunt's wife Qin Yunye, he went to the bedroom in Anshou Hall and looked at Old Lady Qin.

Seeing that the old lady was sleeping deeply, Qin Ersi sat by the bed for a while, and then asked the servant to carry the lantern back to Xunyao Courtyard.

At night, the golden wind that was vigilant fell asleep on the small collapse because he was really tired.

It started snowing outside the window, and snow was drifting into the house from the window that had never been closed with the cold wind.

Old Mrs. Qin woke up by the cold, she opened her eyes and called out a few times:

"Golden wind, golden wind."

The golden wind was still asleep, only heavy snoring sounded.

Old Mrs. Qin struggled to get up, walked out of the inner room of the tread bed, and poured herself a cup of tea.

Somehow, I walked to the window with snowflakes.

The cold wind blew on her face, and her expression slowly changed from the beginning to the wise and wise wisdom.

I don’t know how long it took, but the sleeping golden wind was awakened by the cold.

She sneezes and quickly got up from the bottom of her body, but saw Old Mrs. Qin standing alone in front of the window.

"Old lady, it's not good for me."

"I'm sleeping so well, I'll close the window."

Somehow, Jin Feng looked at the old lady Qin's eyes, as if he had returned to his previous shrewdness.

In a blink of an eye, I felt like I was fascinated again.

The second day after the fourth aunt Qin Yunye arrived at the Qin Mansion of his mother's family, he gave a lot of gold and silver rewards to the maids of Anshoutang with great fanfare.

The gifts prepared for the masters were also sent to others, but only Qin Minren and the Tao couple did not.

Qin Minren shouldn't have received this ritual, but Tao suffered an undesirable disaster.

Ding Jingzhu also received a lot of rewards, including two longevity peach-like tanned sons, and a pair of inlaid jade earrings.

The fourth aunt Qin Yunye is not a fool, and she only gave generous rewards to the maid of Anshoutang.

The other servants only rewarded some copper coins according to the rules.

Because Qin Yunye lived in Anshoutang these days and guarded the old lady Qin.

Some of the little maids who were very active took the initiative to go to Qin Yunye to show their gratitude, and even stopped doing their own jobs.

They have been used to being idle since the old lady got sick.

Either they were joking loudly or spitting out melon seeds during rest, or they went to the garden in groups of three or five.

Qin Yunye has been very kind to the little maids who have come to show her kindness these days, but secretly asked his confidant Mama Chai to take care of which maids who are not following the rules and are not dedicated to their hearts.

After waiting for five or six days, I had a clue in my mind and was about to find an opportunity to break out.

On that day, Ding Jingzhu and Jinzhi were serving Old Lady Qin for a walk outside, and then he returned to Anshoutang when he heard noisy shouts and cries.

Jinzhi signaled Ding Jingzhu to serve Old Lady Qin well, and she went up to see what was going on.

Ding Jingzhu helped the old lady to sit on the pear blossom and wood chair in Anshou Hall at the front, and then went to the tea room on the right according to the rules, and ordered Ningyu and Youlan to serve tea.

Old Mrs. Qin sipped in a small sip with the tea in the cup.

Her previous habit was to drink Zhengshan Xiaozhong black tea in the morning, Tieguanyin green tea in the afternoon, and Shoumei white tea in the evening.

I have been confused over the years, but I still have done my best to serve the tea and follow the previous rules.

Thinking of this, she looked at Ningyu and Youlan inadvertently.

The two maids Ning Yu had a slightly impetuous manner, while Youlan was nervous and looked at herself from time to time.

The maid Jingzhu, who is thin and has a pair of almond eyes, is a rule.

These days, except for the four big ones, she is the most dedicated among the second class.

Old Mrs. Qin used a cup of tea, and Ding Jingzhu looked at Huang Yi coming from the side courtyard and was a little happy.

Seeing that the old lady was not caring, she left Anshou Hall and wanted to ask what happened to Huangli.

Huang Li said with some joy: "Miss Fourth is in the side courtyard, so everyone is punished to kneel."

Ding Jingzhu said, "Why are you punishing me to kneel down?"

Huang Li said: "It's because everyone has been too lazy these days and is not dedicated to serving the old lady."

"In the past few days, I can tell which ones are used to being cheating."

"I punished Han Mei and a few others, as well as a group of people under Sister Yu Lu."

After hearing this, Ding Jingzhu knew that the fourth aunt was considering the old lady and hitting her uneasy subordinates.

He smiled: "No wonder you are so happy, but you were punished to kneel down for Hanmei?"

Half of Huangliu was said to be thoughtful and said a little embarrassedly:

"Why is it for this? I don't like to joke about people."

After saying that, she took out a pair of crescent moon earrings with green and white jade from her arms and smiled:

"This is what my aunt rewards me, saying that I am the most dedicated third-class maid these days."

Ding Jingzhu took the pair of crescent earrings, played with them for a while, and returned them to Huangli:

"You are so happy. Are you a honest man who is dedicated and responsible? The masters see it."

Huangli got Ding Jingzhu's joke, smiled, and went back to the corridor to take up a job.

In the evening, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren used dinner.

The mother Chai, who was beside the fourth aunt’s wife Qin Yunye, actually came to Ding Jingzhu and Youlan.

He gave Ding Jingzhu a pair of silk-sized turquoise earrings, and Youlan a pair of transparent silk-sized glass earrings.

After the two of them gave their respects, thanked and rewarded them, they asked the reason and found out that they were the same as Huangli.

It is because the two of them have been doing their best in their work these days.

Ding Jingzhu and the others fell back and found that neither Danhong nor Hanhui had this extra reward.

After a brief investigation, there were only Ding Jingzhu and Ningyu who were second-class maids, and there were only Huangli and Youlan in third-class maids.

The fourth aunt Qin Yunye's rule of reward and punishment was immediately effective.

When Ding Jingzhu was on duty the next day, she found that the maids in the Anshou Hall were moving in moderation and moving in a regular manner.

It seemed like the old lady was not sick yet.

Ding Jingzhu and Hanhui started working together in the Hualushui business at the age of last year, and also received dividends for the second year in February.

Last year, the business was very good because of the stocking in advance and the reputation accumulated.

Ding Jingzhu's personal 30% of his stocks actually got a thousand,200 taels of silver notes.

By this calculation, Hanhui's net income in a year should be about 4,000 taels of silver.

But in one or two years, the principal can be recovered.

However, the rabbit business that Ding Jingzhu and her sisters can only be said to be lukewarm.

Last year, about 250 rabbits were sold to the Qin Mansion, and a total of 70 taels of silver were obtained.

In addition, the 326 rabbits sold in pieces were sold, and a total of 150 taels of silver was obtained.

The five sisters each divided the profits they occupied by their shares, not only making back the cost, but also making small profits.

However, the upper limit of the rabbit sales business is also somewhat low due to the market.

If Fan’s mother hadn’t gotten up early and went to the street market to sell it late, it would have cost only two or three hundred taels of silver a year.
