Tang Shiyue went to see Liu Yapo the next day.
Mrs. Ye was not there at noon, so Tang Shiyue waited in the mule cart.
After a while, an old woman was seen coming over holding the hand of a little child.
Tang Shiyue felt quite satisfied at first glance.
The old woman was quite thin, but she looked neat and nimble, with her hair combed neatly, her back straight, and her eyes bright. At first glance, she was a woman with strong character and confidence.
Moreover, although she liked this kind of straightforward woman, she was also worried that the previous experience would make her violent. But now it seems that she is not like that. Her eyes are kind and she is full of smiles when she looks at her little grandson.
At this moment, Qi Jing also looked at the child and nodded at her.
Tang Shiyue got off the mule cart and smiled at her, "Are you Grandma Ye? I was introduced by Grandma Liu."
Mrs. Ye quickly opened the door and let people in: "Please come in, young gentlemen, and take a seat." She poured two bowls of water for them and said, "Did Mrs. Liu say that I am now the head of a family. If I want to work again, I can only do it at night."
"No," Tang Shiyue said, "We are from Jubao Village. My family...my mother has a bit of a temper. My brother has to study, and I have to work in the winery, so I want to hire someone to help and look after my mother, not just for the kitchen."
...
...
"It's not appropriate to buy a maid in the countryside, so I wanted to buy an old lady. I looked around and finally found one from an old lady. We want to hire a long-term worker who will live in our house."
Mrs. Ye said, "I'm sorry, young master, I have a little grandson at home, so I can only take odd jobs. I can't do such a long journey."
"Don't be anxious, listen to me." Tang Shiyue said, "I know you have a little grandson who is about to start learning. There is a martial arts school next to my house. It teaches children martial arts and strengthens their bodies. It also gives them education. It doesn't charge money and provides three meals a day."
Mrs. Ye immediately perked up: "Really?"
Tang Shiyue laughed and said, "Everyone in the surrounding villages knows about this, how could I lie to you?"
She paused and said, "How about this, why don't you follow our mule cart and take a look first?"
Mrs. Ye hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Don't worry. Since you are here, you can try my cooking first. I won't let you feel that you are at a disadvantage."
Tang Shiyue responded with a smile.
Mrs. Ye went to buy rice, flour and vegetables and went to the kitchen to cook.
Tang Shiyue stood by and watched with a calm look.
Since Mrs. Ye can be a cook, the food she cooks must be delicious. Moreover, she is skillful and clean. Tang Shiyue is very satisfied with this. What she is most uncomfortable with is that in this era, many people have very poor hygiene habits.
When the dishes were served, they tasted really good, much better than what she cooked. And looking at Changrui's performance, you could tell that they definitely didn't get to eat such good food on a normal day.
If you want to get something, you must give it first. It is really good to have such insight.
After dinner, Tang Shiyue took Mrs. Ye back to the village.
When Mrs. Ye saw the martial arts hall, she was delighted. She went in to take a look. Everything was new. There was a special elementary school and children were practicing martial arts in the drill ground.
Going to the kitchen, I saw two special cooks cooking. There was enough rice, flour and vegetables, and the food was good, at least there was meat every meal.
Mrs. Ye was a little uneasy and frowned. Tang Shiyue asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's not inappropriate, it's too appropriate," Mrs. Ye said seriously, "but my useless child is here to trouble you?"
Tang Shiyue smiled and said, "If the good-for-nothing kid you're talking about is Han Yi, then he did mention it. However, Han Yi and I are just casual acquaintances. I'm being arrogant... I'm not really afraid of him, and he can't threaten me."
"He just heard that I was looking for someone like this, and I went to several dental shops but couldn't find a suitable one, so he recommended you to me. I thought you were a good person, so I went to visit you."
"What others find troublesome, such as your little grandson, is the most convenient for me. This way I can rest assured, and it happens to solve the urgent need of grandma... So I think grandma and I are just coincidental, and it is a win-win for both sides. What do you think?"
Mrs. Ye thought for a moment and said solemnly, "Thank you very much, young lady!"
So it was settled, and Mrs. Ye packed up her things and moved in that night.
Because all the writing and other things are done at Xu's house or in the martial arts hall now, the small study is no longer needed, so Tang Shiyue cleaned up the north side of her west wing and let the grandparents live in it.
Mrs. Ye wanted to live in the side room, but Tang Shiyue refused with a smile. She thought that the side rooms could be used to store food on one side and other sundries on the other side. Besides, the side rooms were really low and not suitable for living.
The biggest benefit of Mrs. Ye’s arrival is that Tang Shiyue no longer has to get up early to make breakfast.
The elderly usually sleep less, and Mrs. Ye is diligent. She gets up early every day, makes breakfast for both sides, and then sends Changrui to the martial arts gym. When she comes back, Tang Shiyue gets up lazily.
At noon and in the evening, if Tang Shiyue didn’t go to the winery, she would cook with Mrs. Ye.
Tang Shiyue’s cooking skills are not actually that great, she just knows some things that others don’t, and her cooking is often very unique.
She spent a few days and after feeling that Mrs. Ye was trustworthy, she taught her everything, and then she started to be the hands-off manager.
And she is really busy.
Peach wine and loquat wine are still being brewed, and a batch of wine expires from time to time.
She also had to experiment with new wines, such as carambolas and pears, and send people to search for good grapes... She was very busy every day.
Mrs. Ye doesn't talk much on weekdays. She just works hard and honestly, but she is a person with plans in mind.
She was quite surprised when she knew Tang Shiyue was the head of the winery. Then she looked coldly at Wang who didn't care about anything and only focused on putting on makeup and sewing new clothes every day, which made her feel strange.
She was a person who could not sit still. She cleaned the house very well, and took care of the vegetable garden and fruit trees. She also carried a hoe to the back, trying to reclaim some wasteland.
As a result, when Tang Shiyue came back, she found no one at home.
Tang Shiyue became famous at that time.
Although she knew rationally that nothing would happen and Wang Shi would not dare to do anything strange for a while, the situation of that day suddenly came to her mind, and she felt disgusted and angry, unable to suppress it.
She lost her temper at night.
She said directly to Mrs. Ye: "I have said before, I don't need you to do much work, nor do I need you to save money for me. You just need to stay at home when I am not at home, and no one is allowed to go out or outsiders to come in. If you can't do that, leave as soon as possible!"
This was the first time Mrs. Ye saw her get angry.
Seeing that her face turned pale with anger, Mrs. Ye knew that there must be something going on, so she quickly stood up and knelt on the ground: "Don't be angry, young lady, I was negligent in this matter, and I will never do it again in the future."
Although Tang Shiyue was very angry, seeing her kneeling on the ground at such an old age, he could not get any more angry, so he waved his hand and left.
After that, Mrs. Ye quietly went to find Madam Zhou.
Madam Zhou saw it clearly.
This old woman clearly only has her precious grandson in her heart and eyes. Now Changrui is living like a fish in water here and can be taken care of nearby. Even if you hit her with a stick, she will not leave.
Madam Zhou picked out what she could say and told her.
Madam Zhou already felt sorry for Tang Shiyue, and she gritted her teeth as she spoke of this. Madam Ye was also surprised, as she had never heard of a mother like this.
From then on, she remembered that as long as Tang Shiyue was not at home, she would only stay in the front yard. Even when she was delivering food to the next door, she would ask the old servant who forgot the book to come and get it.
Fortunately, Tang Shiyue, the Xu family, and the martial arts school never split the bill for meals. They would write down what they needed in the evening, and someone would go to the town to buy it in the morning. Lynx would also bring wild rabbits and pheasants home every day, so there was always meat for every meal.
Tang Shiyue was never stingy with money, and she often said that children should eat well, so she boldly cooked some delicious food and sent it to both sides. The children never complained about her waste, but instead praised her endlessly.
Moreover, little Changrui also ate with them every day, and there was no distinction between master and servant. After a few days, the little guy dared to act like a spoiled child with Tang Shiyue just like Xiao Yaoer, which made Qi Yang very upset.
It would take several lifetimes to cultivate a master like this.
Mrs. Ye became more and more devoted to him day by day.
