Chapter 4718 4721 [There Is a God with Three Feet High]

What's even more hateful is that the slaves of the Jia family also like to steal rats and dogs to fill their pockets.

For example, the butler Lai Da took advantage of the opportunity to build the Grand View Garden and embezzled a lot of corruption. Not only did he donate an official position to his son Lai Shangrong, he even built a garden for his own family.

Although it is not as big as the Grand View Garden of the Jia family, it is also exquisite and meticulous, which surprised Yingchun, Tanchun and others, which shows that it is not an ordinary garden.

As the housekeeper, Lai Da’s monthly money is only five taels. If it weren’t for corruption, how could he get the money to donate officials and build a garden?

In addition to the big thief who robbed himself like him, there are many little thieves who stole rats and dogs.

For example, the slaves who are responsible for purchasing rouge are all inferior goods and cannot be used at all, which makes the lady have to pay for it himself; for example, the slaves who are guarding the door like to receive red envelopes for gifts, otherwise they will not help.

These bad habits must also be banned. Otherwise, the thousand-mile dike will be destroyed by the ant hole, and no matter how rich a family is, it will not be able to withstand so many big rats.

...

After reading Xiang Nan's drafted "Jia Family Law", Jia Zheng felt that it was quite rigorous, but there were still some shortcomings, so he added two more.

One is that the Jia family must strictly observe loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues, and must not exceed the rules; the other is that the Jia family must be self-disciplined, do their own business, and perform their duties conscientiously.

"The master has added these two things to you. I will follow the main points and follow the rules." Xiang Nan smiled. "If you have no objection to other terms, then I will leave them to my ancestors and wives for review. If you have no objection, then I will implement it."

When Jia Zheng heard this, he nodded.

Xiang Nan then handed over the "Jia Family Law" to Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others for review.

After seeing it, Jia Mu didn't say anything.

She also saw that the Jia family had a bit of a decline in the past few years and had a downward trend.

The masters have experienced three or four generations of wealth and honor, and now they have become arrogant and extravagant. He likes to eat, drink, play and spends money casually. Except for Jia Zheng, Jia Jing and Jia Zhu, there is no one who is good at studying.

However, Jia Jing finally passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination, but he actually abandoned his official position and practiced Taoism. Jia Zhu finally got a scholar, but suddenly died, resulting in no one among the descendants of the Jia family being able to stand the door.

The Jia family has always been kind to their servants, and the servants who have served their older generation masters are even more shameful than those of their younger masters.

Like Lai Ma, who has served Mummy Jia, even Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang, Jia Lian, and Wang Xifeng must be respectful.

Therefore, Lai Ma's two sons, Lai Da and Lai Sheng, became the housekeeper of the Jia family and embezzled them heavily, resulting in a large loss of the Jia family's property.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. With them as the leader, other slaves naturally learn to steal from rats and dogs, which harms the public and the private sector. This led to few clean servants from the Jia family.

These are all necessary. But she is old and has no energy anymore. Moreover, the housekeeper's power has been handed over to Mrs. Wang, and it is not good to interfere in the management.

What's more, to punish the servants, we must be a colleague. Lai Ma is her maid. After decades of friendship, how could she bear to give up a hero?

Therefore, I simply turned a blind eye and just lived in the inner house with my grandchildren. Anyway, no matter who is short, no matter how short she is.

...

"My son, do you need to be so strict?" After reading it, Mrs. Wang agreed with the laws and regulations that strictly prohibited her masters from gambling, lending and collecting profits, litigation, and corruption.

I feel that I am a little strict with my servant's ten rules.

For example, if you lose work or miss work, you must remember your demerits. Not only will you deduct your salary, but you will even be fired; if you steal a rat and a dog, you will be beaten to a board; if you fill your personal bags, you will be sent to an official... This is a bit harsh.

"Mrs. Those who seek the best will get the most, those who seek the best will get the most, and those who seek the best will get nothing." Xiang Nan explained, "Only by formulating family laws will be stricter, and in the future, good results will be achieved.

Otherwise, the method of establishing the family will be relaxed at the beginning, and it will be even more relaxed when implemented in the future. The purpose of formulating family laws is gone. ”

"Madam, Baoyu is right." Jia Mu nodded, "Only by stricter family laws can they know how powerful they are. Otherwise, they will not be scared at the beginning, and they will not take it seriously."

Seeing that Jia Mu said this, Mrs. Wang nodded, "Forget it, since the old lady and the master said this, then let's settle it."

Afterwards, she sent someone to invite Wang Xifeng and handed her the family law over to her, "Let's implement this in the future."

Wang Xifeng doesn’t recognize a few words, and she still has to listen to someone else to read them first.

When she heard that lending was strictly prohibited, her face changed slightly. However, when she heard that prostitution was strictly prohibited, gambling, raising foreign houses, and raising children, she turned from worry to joy.

Especially when hearing the ten rules that restrict slaves, she felt like she was a treasure.

Although she started to be housekeeper in the past two years and received the support of Mu Jia and Mrs. Wang, those slaves were not obedient and obedient.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

She either passively slacking off or overworked, or she was sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, making countless jokes to make fun of her. Therefore, although she is smart and versatile, the housekeeper has really put in a lot of effort in the past two years.

Now that she has the "Jia Family Law", she is much more relaxed.

If anyone dares to make trouble in the future, they will directly engage in accordance with family laws, either deducting salary, making a bet, firing, or sending it to the official court, which greatly increases the power of her housekeeper's wife.

Her favorite is the rules that prohibit prostitution, gambling, raising foreign houses, and raising children.

Although she and Jia Lian have always had a good relationship in recent years, Jia Lian's habit of stealing food has not changed and they often stay outside.

And he has always been generous in spending money, and he has taken out all the money in the oil pan to spend it. The little money she earned from lending privately could not satisfy Jia Lian's famine.

Therefore, it would be great if family law could really control Jia Lian.

...

"After all, Brother Bao is thoughtful and came up with such a good way." Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Okay, since the ancestors, masters and wives all agree, then that's it."

"Sister, if you want to promote the rule of law, you must first let everyone know the law." Xiang Nan said, waved his hand, and in an instant, hundreds of copies of the "Jia Family Law" were copied, "Send all these." If you go down, you can get one book to save them from talking in the future.”

"Brother Bao is saying." Wang Xifeng immediately said when she heard this, "If you don't send these to them, they will say 'It's not an exaggeration for those who don't know it'. Now everyone has one, let's see how they can shirk it."

"It doesn't count if you have family laws. The key is to implement them. If you don't follow the laws and do not investigate the violations, then family laws are just a decoration." Xiang Nan said as he took out a roll of parchment, "Sister, this roll of parchment is for you. , let all slaves sign their own handprints."

"What's the use of this?" Wang Xifeng asked curiously.

"I have cast a curse on this roll of parchment. In the future, as long as anyone dares to violate family laws, they will directly carve the mistakes they made on their faces, which is clear at a glance." Xiang Nan smiled slightly, "This is what it means to raise his head. There are gods three feet.'."

Wang Xifeng was shocked when she heard him say this.
