Chapter 244 Xi Ming is going too
Xi Feng did not refuse the kindness of his father and mother. Anyway, the family still has money, so it is not too small to buy this maid.
This time, Xi Ming and Xiao Ayun did not say that they would refuse to buy a servant, but Xiao Ayun insisted on going to the shop by herself and choosing a servant for herself.
Xi Ming also wanted to go, but when he thought of his body... his eyes became gloomy.
Xi Feng glanced at him and said, "The weather was good these two days and there was no wind. Ah Ming will go with us and choose his servant."
"I... can I really go?" Xi Ming's eyes were filled with surprise.
Xi Feng's heart aches slightly. In the old house for five years, Da Ah's brother had never left the house. The farthest place he walked was the place closest to the gate.
A Ming, he must be very eager to go out, right?
Xi Feng looked at Xi Tongfang and Ruan, "Dad, let's take Dadi with you. As long as we go to a crowded place, Dadi will cover his mouth with a veil and it won't be a problem if he doesn't inhale the dust."
"This..." Ruan was hesitant. She didn't want her eldest son to go out, for fear that he would get sick. Every time her eldest son got sick, she would have to accompany her as a mother.
She felt sorry for her son's hardships and couldn't bear to bear with her son's hardships.
But looking at the hopeful lights of his son putting him on her, Ruan hesitated. She looked at Xi Tongfang and said, "Master, you make the decision. I will prepare a few more A Ming's handkerchiefs, otherwise I will sew them together and sew them a few more layers on my face, so that he can prevent him from sucking in the dust."
"You agree, then the whole family will go. However, if Ah Ming wants to go, he has to set off tomorrow at noon. The sun is the best at noon and there will be no more people on the streets. It's just right to go at that time." Xi Tongfang decided.
Everyone has always agreed.
After the discussion, Xi Tongfang went to the shop. He was busy moving housekeeping for the past few days, and he ignored the shop and workshop. He had to see how the Ji family's orders were doing.
Ruan Shi and Xi Feng took out a piece of paper and began to plan the servants they wanted to add to their home.
"The chef must have one more. There are so many people in the family, and it's not okay to have no chef. Liu's mother mentioned the chief supervisor. She couldn't let Liu's mother cook for everyone. There were also two more maids in the kitchen. In the future, Xu and Ma Ma would specially manage the vegetable field and replace all the people in the kitchen... Two more maids who cleaned the back garden, and there were carriages. A Feng, our family only had one carriage. Your father wanted to use it every day. Should you add another carriage at home?"
If you want to add a carriage, you have to buy another coachman.
A carriage doesn’t cost much money. If it’s better, it’s only twenty taels of silver. The coachman is cheaper. He can buy one for ten taels of silver. The main reason is that the horse is expensive. A better horse costs hundreds of taels of silver, and a worse one costs fifty or sixty taels of silver.
"The horse your father bought was bought by the Fourth Master of the Chu family. He said he had only spent thirty taels of silver. The person who sold the horse knew the Fourth Master, so he collected some capital. But the Fourth Master had already helped him once, so it was hard for us to ask someone to help him again. We just need to buy one similar one and just pull a car."
Ruan Tsai asked Xi Feng to write down the slaves he wanted to buy one by one on the paper. When he saw them last, Ruan Tsai gasped, "Is there enough money in our hands to buy so many servants?"
"Mom, my dad has a lot of money in hand, enough." Even if it is not enough, she will give her money to her father and mother in private.
