THE HUMBLE FAMILY'S DAUGHTER HAS A SPATIAL POCKET!

Chapter 247: Chapter 231, Abundant Rain_1

Ren Pozi and Fang Gui left Daohua Courtyard after spending no more than a quarter of an hour, and as soon as they finished their business, Madam Li received the news.

Upon hearing the two additional rules from Daohua, Madam Li fell silent for a moment, “This girl has thought things through quite meticulously. Listing out what each household eats, black on white, everyone will know exactly what’s going on, preventing some people from feeling shortchanged after eating their fill.”

Ping Tong nodded, “The household has been more comfortable these past two years, and I’ve noticed that the Second Master and his wife always order a lot whenever they choose their meals. If they can’t finish, it would be such a waste.”

“There’s also the one from Shuangxin Courtyard, who has been using the excuse of needing to nourish her body since giving birth to the fifth young miss, and occasionally goes to the kitchen to order something.”

Madam Li scoffed, “Nowadays, the Second Master and his wife are imitating the ways of aristocratic families. But they don’t consider whether our household can withstand such extravagance. Because of the Old Madam and the Master, I haven’t been able to say much.”

“As for Shuangxin Courtyard, that was the Master’s own directive, allowing Madam Lin to have whatever she wishes the kitchen to prepare. With that said, the Lin Family wouldn’t hesitate to take advantage.”

As she spoke, Madam Li smirked again.

“They say a daughter is her mother’s intimate little cotton-padded jacket, and that saying is certainly true. With this move of hers, we’ll have to suppress the bad practices in this household. Even if it causes some displeasure in the future, we will have a well-reasoned argument on our side.”

Ping Tong immediately responded, “Indeed, the eldest young miss has always had Madam’s interests at heart.”

There are some things, even if Madam knows about them, she can’t act on, but it’s different for the eldest young miss; she can afford much less consideration.

Madam Li continued, “Regarding the procurement… our household expenses have been increasing lately and we should really tighten control in that area. A little pilfering isn’t a big deal, but I’m more concerned about people’s greed growing larger, eventually leading to lining their own pockets.”

Ping Tong nodded, then laughed, “Our eldest young miss really has the makings of a good butler. Taking over the kitchen, she resolved two major problems for Madam.”

Madam Li laughed too, “The girl is clever indeed, but a bit lazy, needing a push before she takes action. We must keep a close eye on her.”
