Chapter 8 Take a step back
Xu held the teacup in his hand and put it down with a gentle sip. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Jiu'er, you are less or less, I don't know that since your eldest aunt became a member of this family, there have been more people who have offended! The daily life and expenses of the family, which one should not offend people? ! Xu opened his mouth and complained.
"The family's inflow and outflow money still have to be dealt with, this is less than the end of the year, and some accounts are still unclear! I'm so busy that my feet don't touch the ground, so it's not annoying. The people at the top complained that the expenses had been reduced, and some people at the bottom did not listen to the call, and some of the money was dragged and not handed over······" Xu glanced at Jiang Li, intentionally or unintentionally.
When it came to this, Jiang Li was not ready to endure it, but he pretended to be stupid: "Jiang Li also knows that it is not easy for the eldest aunt to be in charge of the family, and it is true that he is tight at the end of the year." I have already instructed that our silk shop will not be ready to settle accounts with the government this year. Let's forget about the amount of clothing in the house this year! ”
Jiang Li said casually, but it made Xu's brain buzz and dumbfounded, and he couldn't turn around with a stunned face.
When is she ready to check out? She's counting on getting money from the shop! What she thought along the way was that it would be best to even put the income of the shop and Meizhuang into the account of the house, and she was still waiting for such a big income to tide over this year!
Xu Shi looked at Jiang Li in a daze, this thin girl who she grew up watching, Miss Qianjin, who had always been ignorant before, when did she also pay attention to economic use? Dare to love her for a long time, but she was blocked by a little girl with a word!
Jiang Li looked at the stiff face of the Xu family, she was wearing a sky blue cloud brocade robe embroidered with peonies all over the place today, which made her somewhat fat face more graceful and luxurious.
sneered in her heart, her good aunt was still wearing the clothes of the Mei family, but she still came to calculate the property of the Mei family. What family affairs and what decisions are made for her, it is all conditional, so you really can't see it.
Xu's face was a little ugly, and he said: "Jiu'er talked about the matter of the silk shop, and it had not been settled in the early years. I think it's also your mother's knowledge, she is the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, how can the family settle accounts separately! ”
Xu's is alluding to her lack of rudeness? She's going to have to get that straightened out today.
"I think my aunt is wrong to praise my mother. In those years, it was not her 'knowledge', and sometimes the family did not take the initiative to settle the bill in those years, and she couldn't erase her feelings and beg for it. However, she wrote down all these accounts in a small notebook! But it's not that my mother is not polite - I knew when I was a child that the dozen or so shops in the hands of the shopkeeper Ge, as well as this plum village, were all dowries from my maternal grandfather to my mother. According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, a woman's dowry is regarded as her own private property, and even her husband and in-laws are not allowed to take it for herself. Jiang Li looked at Xu's face and turned pale.
Luluo and Xiaoxiang were afraid that Jiang Li would suffer a loss, so they had been standing on Jiang Li's left and right and listening word for word, at this moment, Luluo and Xiaoxiang glanced at each other, and the two of them said in their hearts: When did our girl become so sharp and sharp?
Jiang Li's words were not finished: "I want to come to the eldest aunt and the second aunt also have their own private property, if you all take the initiative to hand it over to the public middle school in the house, it will be your wisdom and wisdom." But my mother remembered that I had been frail and sick since I was a child, and I had no brothers and sisters, and her property was a dowry prepared for me, and even the tokens were handed over to me. Moreover, my grandfather is still alive, and if someone in the Jiang family wants to be disobeyed, he asked me to sell the property and go back to Jiangnan to invest in my grandfather! ”
Green pothos hung her head behind Jiang Li, her eyes rolling, she didn't remember when Madame had said this to the girl, but it made sense to say it now. She was simply impressed by this master.
Xu still didn't give up: "Even if it is your dowry, you are still young, and I am afraid that one person will not be able to take care of these properties." First hand over to the family to manage for you for a few years, and then return it to you when you get married. ”
"I don't dare to work my family. Motherless children are in charge of the house early, which is also what my maternal grandfather meant. If he doesn't feel at ease with me, sooner or later he will ask me to go back to Jiangnan. Jiang Li didn't let go at all.
When the Xu family came, the momentum of being the housewife was completely defeated, and the caring face could no longer be put on display. His lips trembled and he couldn't speak, but he turned his head and glared fiercely at the maids standing on either side.
Jiang Li looked at it with a smile in his eyes, he had already said cruel words, and the family still had to live. She turned around and instructed Luluo and Xiaoxiang to prepare for dinner, but said to Xu: "The eldest aunt stayed here to eat, and I asked Mei Bo to prepare the spring grain and send it to the Jiang family, and let's go back together." I also know that the Jiang family has not been able to compare with previous years in recent years, as long as it can be subsidized, it will still be subsidized as in previous years. ”
Xu has eased up, and the situation in front of her has allowed her to have a choice. She had to humbly smile reluctantly: "It's better to rush back to the house to eat, your illness is just right, and it bothers you again." ”
"As long as the eldest aunt is not too slow. You also know that I have few girls under my hands, so I can't prepare. Jiang Li said lightly.
Xu Shi only saved Jiang Li from leaving the house when he left the house, and he only left two personal girls for her, which was also his own mistake, he wanted to leave one or two eyeliner by her side, and today he would not even know that her illness suddenly improved, so he would not be so passive.
After thinking about it like this, he said: "The previous girl was unfavorable to Jiu'er, and she was dismissed by me, and she has never been added. I'll call you four more girls as soon as I get back today! ”
"No need, I've already called Shopkeeper Ge to buy a few girls, and I'll ask the pothos to pick them up in two days." Jiang Li guarded a drop of water.
Xu hurriedly went back after lunch, and when he came, he was determined to get it, but when he went, he was disappointed. Jiang Li personally sent Meizhuang away, and she didn't mention the engagement of the Fan family.
Not to mention the best, although Jiang Li is a twenty-five-year-old soul, he is only fourteen years old, and he can hide for a while. Besides, she hasn't figured out a lot of things in this world yet.
But Xu didn't plan to leave it at that.
