As soon as Patty saw her she liked her, but, remembering previous experiences, she said: "Do you understand that you are to work for me? I'm a very young housekeeper, you know." "Laws, missy, dat's all right. Til do de housekeepin' and you can do de bossin'. I reckon we'll get along mos' beautiful." "That sounds attractive, I'm sure," said Patty, laughing. "What is your name?"
You want to go away from here and to abandon this place where you was born; where your mother and me started housekeepin'; where we've lived for twenty years. If we decided to do that an' it wouldn't be no easy thing for either your mother or me what plans would you aim to carry out?" The boy shook his head.
How many cows would you like for your peaceable intentions? What's th' price of your friendship, anyhow? Of course you don't owe me anything! You're a lady! Now that you're goin' t' set up housekeepin' you'd like t' be good friends. You'll get nothin' from me; I'll let you know that right here and now. Go along with you; I don't want nothin' from you, an' I don't propose t' give nothin' to you."
In old times when the houses were draftier they was troublesome about flickering, candles was; but land! think how comfortable we live now to what we used to! Stoves is such a convenience; the fire's so much handier. Housekeepin' don't begin to be the trial it was once."

She tumbled into general housekeepin' the way Asa Foster said he fell into the cucumber frame with a jolt and a jingle; and she's doin' her best accordin' to her lights. But sometimes her lights need ile or trimmin' or somethin'. I've had the feelin' that we need a good housekeeper here. If Annie's intelligence was as broad and liberal as her shoes, we wouldn't; as 'tis, we do.
The poor old parson has failed consider'ble and Maria Price's housekeepin' and cookin' is enough to make a well man sick or wish he was. But he'll be looked after now. Helen will look after him. She's the most capable girl there is in Ostable County. Did she tell you about what she done in the Red Cross and the hospitals?" "She said something about it, not very much." "Um-hm.
It might be in my house, or it might be in your house it won't make no great difference to me which. Of course, I like woman housekeepin', as is laid down in the rules of service fer my house. But next best to that I like sailor housekeepin', so I don't mind which house the dinner is in, Cap'n Cephas, so it suits you." Captain Cephas took his pipe from his mouth.
