Chapter 119 Arrangement
Shen Li stood in front of everyone, his eyes slowly swept over them, he cleared his throat and said: "I have seen everyone's performance in the mansion over the past few days.
Now that the affairs of the government have increased, I would like to rearrange everyone's work."
She looked at Zhao Dali with expectation on her face, and said in a gentle voice: "Zhao Dali, you are a down-to-earth and steady person, and you have some knowledge. I want you to be the housekeeper.
From now on, you will follow my father, Shen Shaodong, and handle the various matters he assigns you. Are you willing?"
Zhao Dali was stunned at first, but then his eyes were filled with surprise and gratitude. He quickly clasped his fists and saluted, saying in a loud voice, "Miss, since you trust me so much, I will do my best and will not slack off in the slightest!"
He secretly vowed in his heart that he must assist the master well and live up to the young lady's high hopes. This is a great opportunity to change his family's destiny.
Shen Li nodded slightly, then turned to look at Lin with a gentle look in her eyes: "Aunt Lin, you are thoughtful and hardworking.
I want you to follow my mother and help take care of the affairs in the yard, as well as the kitchen meals and clothes sewing. What do you think?"
Lin's face was full of smiles, and she bowed: "Miss, you have made very good arrangements. It is my honor to be able to share your worries with you, Madam."
She was filled with joy, thinking that being able to work beside the lady would not only make the family's life more stable, but also be a recognition of her own abilities.
Then, Shen Li looked at Zhao Qi and said, "Zhao Qi, you will follow your father, Zhao Dali, and share the responsibilities of handling affairs. If there are any errands or messages that need to be delivered, you will do it. Learn more and you will be able to take on responsibilities in the future."
Zhao Qi's face flushed with excitement, and he answered loudly, "Yes, Miss! I will definitely follow my father's instructions!"
He was eager to try and was full of energy for the future, as if he could already see himself growing up in the mansion and becoming a person who could stand on his own.
Shen Li spoke gently to Zhao You again: "Zhao You, just follow my brother Shen Xuan. He is still young and needs help running errands for many things. You have to be smart and take good care of him."
Zhao You blinked and answered obediently: "Don't worry, Miss, I will take good care of the young master."
He thought to himself that the young master was calm and knowledgeable, and he would definitely be able to learn a lot by staying by his side.
Shen Li looked at Zhao Yue. The little girl had become much stronger after these days of recuperation. She wanted to let her do some light work. So she said gently: "Zhao Yue, follow me and help me comb my hair and organize my clothes."
Zhao Yue happily bowed and said, "Yes, Miss!"
Shen Li looked at Shen Yu again: "Shen Yu, just stay with me. I still have a lot of things I need you to do."
Shen Yu looked respectful and knelt on one knee: "Miss, I am willing to serve you at your service and follow you through thick and thin!"
His eyes were determined, knowing that he was carrying the young lady's trust and must give it his all.
Finally, Shen Li's gaze fell on Liu Ruoxi, with a somewhat scrutinizing look in her eyes: "Liu Ruoxi, you said you can play the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and you can embroider flowers. Then you can start embroidering on the fabric prepared for me in the mansion, and you must be available at any time. I have a place for you."
Liu Ruoxi lowered her head slightly, with a hint of embarrassment on her face, and said softly, "Yes, Miss."
She was nervous, not knowing whether the young lady still doubted her, but she could only agree first and then look for an opportunity to regain her trust. As for her master's arrangement for her to approach the county magistrate Bai Jin, she still needed to take her time.
In addition, Shen Li also made some arrangements for the monthly wages and miscellaneous matters of each servant.
At this time, Shen Shaodong walked into the house with steady steps.
Ever since he took the Bone Refining Pill carefully prepared by his daughter Shen Li, he felt as if he had been injected with a new vitality, and his hearing and eyesight had become exceptionally sharp.
With just a little concentration, he could see the subtle movements and clear images a hundred meters away. This wonderful change made him more amazed and gratified by Shen Li's filial piety and miraculous encounter.
Therefore, he watched carefully the scene of Shen Li arranging everyone in the mansion to perform their duties in an orderly manner, and his heart was full of praise and recognition.
Seeing his daughter so smart and capable, he secretly felt that she was really a caring little girl who could always bring him unexpected surprises and touches without realizing it.
However, he has been extremely busy these days, as if he was in a mess and was extremely anxious.
Many affairs came to him like a tide, whether it was the family's future vision, the dealings with various external forces, or the myriad of matters involved in preparing for the construction of the family ancestral hall and school. All of them weighed heavily on his shoulders, making it almost difficult for him to find a moment to breathe.
But at this moment, seeing Shen Li being so sensible and capable, a new strength and hope surged in his heart, as if he had found a safe haven in this busy vortex. He firmly believed that as long as the father and daughter worked together, they would be able to break through the numerous obstacles and lead the Shen family to a more glorious future.
