Chapter 483: Dealing with the Meng Family's Affairs
Since he is preparing for marriage, Meng Ge is naturally not very idle. She only has such a relative as the Shi family in the capital, so she will naturally marry in the Shi family.
Who made the Meng Mansion such a Meng Mansion?
Thinking of Mengfu, Meng Ge still took time out of his busy schedule and went to Mengfu in person, so he asked people to move chairs from Shi's house, and personally inquired about the transformation results of Mengfu in recent times at the gate of Mengfu.
Ding Hatmeng, as the big housekeeper of this transformation, will definitely report to her one by one. If he can decide to do it by himself, he will naturally do it.
However, he still has to consult Meng Ge about the affairs of General Meng and his wife.
"Are you saying that the old woman wants a million taels of silver, and then goes out with her two sons to live on her own?" said Mongo, so surprised that he almost snapped his jaw off.
That old woman is really ridiculous, she has not repented at all at this time.
One million taels of silver, she can open her mouth.
Ding hated Meng Liang and stood with his hands in his hands, and said, "I told the old woman, if the Meng Mansion really has a million taels of silver, there is no need for General Meng to throw this burden to you." But people just don't believe it, and they say that you have embezzled the property of the entire Meng Mansion. ”
"In addition to her, the people in the other two rooms also came out to make trouble. You make a list of those lists, and I'll ask Meng Ji to show the old general and ask him how to deal with them. "Mongo didn't want to get tangled up with those people.
She felt that she should be sent to work on the ranch farm in the south, and when they had enough of suffering, they would naturally be obedient.
She doesn't expect them to be sensible, as long as they don't come out to make trouble from time to time, she can burn high incense.
Ding hated Meng Du and didn't need Meng Ge to remind him, so he had already taken out the booklet and gave it to Meng Ge immediately.
Meng Ge looked at the number of people and names above, as well as the status of these people in the Meng family, and immediately smiled. Sure enough, these people are the stupidest in the Meng family.
Those who are smart, or who already know that the tide is turning, have already accepted Menggo's arrangement, and have started to live a small life, or have begun to plan for their future.
For example, one of her cousins in the big house has already proposed to Ding Hatmeng to raise some money to make a living, so that he will find a place to move out as soon as possible to live on his own.
Seeing that the silver they asked for was not excessive, and it was quite reasonable, Meng Ge waved her hand, and she also allocated an additional two thousand to them, saying that it was the settling-in allowance for the elders as the back of the Meng family.
With the example of that uncle, those people in the Meng family who had long had thoughts and wanted to separate from the smoky Meng family actually followed suit.
Meng Ge was a little surprised when he saw this, and the people who came to the Meng family were not all mud, at least there were still seedlings that could be saved.
It's just that everyone thought that it was good to enjoy the shade with their backs against the big trees, and with the long-term prestige of the old woman Meng, they suppressed their weak thoughts.
Although Meng Ge agreed to their request, he asked them to sign an IOU, and he had to write a letter of guarantee and find a person of repute to testify that he would live a good life in the future and would not be a traitor again.
As for the capital of the business, Meng Ge said that it was all lent by her privately, and those who borrowed the money had the ability in the future, and if they did not pay it back, she would take back all their livelihoods according to the provisions on the IOU.
Maybe it was because the old woman Meng saw that some of the people in the clan had left, and the remaining children didn't seem to be very kind and filial to her, so she thought of such a method.
She wanted to control the money so that her two sons and their descendants could provide for her in their old age.
It's just that her old man forgot that under her connivance and killing, her two sons, as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, were so crooked that they couldn't be crooked anymore.
Even if he was not defeated, he was confiscated by the emperor before.
What the children squandered in this period was just the dowry of their daughter-in-law.
It's just that the dowries of the daughters-in-law are always limited, and now that the Meng Mansion has been declared bankrupt, everyone is in the hands of the Meng Ge sisters and brothers, and those daughters-in-law naturally have to hold on to the few dowries left in their families.
This is also the reason why Old Lady Meng was so anxious and so cheeky to ask Meng Ge for so much silver taels.
In her life, she followed General Meng Lao in the first half of her life, although she didn't have a good life. But everyone respects her and gives her priority in everything. So she didn't lack anything.
In the second half of his life, the court gradually became chaotic. At that time, General Meng Lao took home more and more finances, which were all the trophies he obtained from the war.
Gradually, she swelled a little, and even the children who were raised by her were squandered unscrupulously.
In this way, she really hasn't lived so badly until now. Even if it wasn't as good as it is now, it was all in the past, and she had long forgotten it.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
She didn't know what one million taels of silver represented in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, but she believed that such a sum of money was enough for her to live beautifully until the day she died.
"Go and tell her, and say that neither she nor the men under her are worth any money. If she insists, I can lend her 100,000 taels. But after that, they have nothing to do with this Meng Mansion, and when the silver is squandered, they will live as they should. When they come back to me, I don't care who they are. Meng Ge said indifferently.
With Meng Ge's words, Ding hated Meng and had the bottom. He had two other things to say.
"They said that it was your grandfather and grandmother, who scolded you for being unfilial to Meng Ji, and wanted to go to the yamen to sue you. Ding hated Meng and said.
Meng Ge looked at Erlang and said indifferently: "Let them go and sue them, anyway, there are still the yamen in the clan who still have the files when they drove my father out of the house and left the clan." ”
It's not their Meng family's people, they just want to sue them with a shelf, but they can't sue Meng Ge and them.
Well, in addition to this matter, there is another thing, which is about Ding hating Meng and the Meng family.
"That couple, who had been tortured by me and had gone mad, were now locked up in an abandoned firewood house in the middle of the house. There is also that person, his personality is really bad, and he already owes more than 1,000 taels of silver to the account room, girl, you see ......" Ding Qimeng asked carefully.
Meng Ge waved his hand without raising his head, and said, "Let him go and herd the sheep for Xiao Mao'er, when to make up for the loss, and when to release the people." If he destroys the pasture, he will die in the mountains. ”
As soon as Meng Ge finished saying this, those who were hiding behind the door and eavesdropping really couldn't sit still, and they all came out to discuss with her.
Meng Ge crossed his hands and asked them quietly: "Do you think you are still qualified to discuss the law? Let me tell you, in the Meng Mansion, I am the king." Don't say that there is no problem with my approach at all, but it is a little biased, and you only have to suffer from the loss. Think about my dad, think about what happened to my dad, and you won't feel unfair. ”
