Chapter 31: Snatching

[Ran^Text^Library] There was a loud bang, and the fine Yuanji blue glazed tea bowl was broken on the ground, and Xue Shi covered his chest, and he was about to get another tea bowl with a fierce momentum.

Gu Hejing hurriedly held down the tea bowl and said, "Why are you angry and spilling these objects?" This is precious, you just didn't say it, the money is not enough to spend! ”

"You still say!" Xue sat down on the chair angrily and said angrily: "Look at your good big brother!" Yes! What did your good big brother do! ”

"Hey," Gu Hejing sighed, carefully put away all the objects on the table, and said, "That was also earned by the eldest brother himself, and it should be given to the sixth girl." ”

"What do you mean by should!" Xue Shi was even more angry, and slapped the table directly and said: "When he was still Princess Anning, we were tabooed by the first emperor, and then there was a peace and departure, which made our Dingguo Mansion a joke in the capital, and even the first emperor disliked it, he himself was good, he went to the border to be a general, but he even took you and the third brother with no future, look at you, until now you are just a loose official from the sixth grade, who can afford you in this capital!" Not to mention that there is no income, even the children's marriage is affected! ”

"That'...... Then I don't want to be in the official career......" Gu Hejing muttered softly, and besides, as far as they rely on their ancestors, aren't everyone doing this kind of loose official?

"What did you say!"

"I didn't say anything......"

Xue Shi clutched his chest and gasped, looking at Gu Hejing with hatred: "Master, don't say that I will talk about you, it's not that I'm stingy, what am I trying to do with a woman?" Isn't it that Master Tu, you have a future, your son is promising, and your daughter can marry a good family! But you also know what the situation is in the house now, your two younger brothers, they can't make any money, and they still spend money vigorously! If it weren't for the national funeral now, your fourth brother would still want to carry an aunt into the door! However, the eldest brother didn't say anything about saving his own private house, and gave all the money to the six girls! We haven't separated yet! How can the eldest brother save a private house! How can it not be handed over to the public high school! ”

Belch...... Gu Hejing glanced up at the Xue clan and didn't make a sound.

Gu Hekui is the head of the family, to be honest, after the death of the old prince, they should have split up, just because the old mother is still there, and there is no separation.

But there is no separation, and the annual income and official income of the grandfather of the country also belong to the grandfather of the country, and the real public middle school is actually just the private property left by the father, that is, the income of the grange shops left by the ancestors of the Gu family, but those properties, under the squandering of the three generations of the grandfather of the country and the three divisions, there is not much left in the hands of the father, and the annual interest is only five or six thousand taels of silver, that is, the monthly money of this house is not enough.

For so many years, it was Gu Hekui who handed over more than 10,000 taels of his national and official village income to the public middle school every year, so that he could raise the big family in the house.

Not to mention the extra money he earned, even if he didn't give the income of Grandpa Guo to Gongzhong, they had nothing to say.

To be honest, now that he is just using his private room as the dowry of the six girls, Gu Hejing doesn't understand why the Xue family is so angry.

"Do you know how much dowry the eldest brother left for the six girls?" Looking at Gu Hejing, Xue said with a hideous expression.

"Madam, when I inherit the title, the entire Guogong Mansion will be ours, and you will still ......" Gu Hejing sighed and said faintly, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Xue family.

"Thirty thousand taels! Thirty thousand taels of silver! ”

"What!" Gu Hejing was startled.

Seeing Gu Hejing's expression, Xue Shi snorted coldly, his expression faded, and said: "Since the opening of our Guogong Mansion, the dowry of the girls in the family, three thousand taels for the concubine, and one thousand taels for the concubine is the rule, that is, the eldest aunt who married the king of Zhongshan County, it is only a dowry of eight thousand taels, your eldest brother is good, he directly gave thirty thousand taels, and said that he just added his own makeup, and the example of the princess is not less!" The end is good calculation, good thought! ”

30,000 taels ......

Gu Hejing only echoed this number in his mind, but he didn't care about Xue's words.

30,000 taels can buy how many calligraphy and paintings, how many classics, and treasures!

Xue glanced at him, and the corners of his lips twitched unconsciously.

Compared with Gu Hezhang in the third room, who talks with people all day long and socializes with people, Gu Hefeng in the fourth room does not return home all day long, and his aunts move home one by one, Gu Hejing's hobbies are quite good.

But it's also the most expensive!

For a thousand taels of silver, Gu Hefeng can marry several aunts to come in, but it is not enough for Gu Hejing to paint money.

In the past, when the old lady was in charge, she could still restrain Gu Hejing, and when the housekeeper key was handed over to her, Gu Hejing had no scruples, and she asked for silver one by one.

But the income of the Zhuangzi outside is managed by Gu Hekui, but the silver is handed over to the public every year at her disposal, but there are so many people in the house, especially the four rooms, and there are only eight concubines, although the monthly routine of the concubines is only two taels a month, but they can't control the number of people.

Dozens of masters' monthly costumes and food, plus hundreds of people in the house, and the old lady likes a novelty, the normal entertainment of the masters, the annual expenses are nearly 20,000 taels, and the rest of the money, Gu and Jing opened their mouths once and then disappeared.

For this, Gu Hejing was angry with her, there was no way, she could only deduct and embezzle money to satisfy Gu Hejing's appetite.

Seeing that the deficit in the public middle school is getting bigger and bigger, she is about to turn gray hair, and then thinks that her son and daughter have reached the age where they can get married, but it is a rule, and the current public middle school can't get it.

And most of her own dowry was taken away by Gu Hejing to buy calligraphy and paintings a few years ago, and now she is also very nervous about money.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been shallow enough to fight the old goods left by Princess An Ning.

It's good now, 30,000 taels of white silver, half of which is cash silver, and half of which is silver tickets, and the steward said that all of them are for the six girls!

It was ready long before Gu Hekui followed King Jing into Beijing!

And she listened to the old lady's meaning, because Gu Hekui knew that this time was dangerous, and maybe he wouldn't be able to live, so he simply left the family property as a dowry to the six girls.

How could she not be angry!

Six girls! Why didn't she die! When she died, this money naturally became the money in the house and the money of the new grandfather of the country!

"Madame!" Xue was gritting his teeth, listening to Gu and Jing's call, and said angrily: "What are you doing!" ”

"That, the six girls have to keep filial piety for three years, and the filial piety period is not allowed to discuss marriage," Gu Hejing sat down on the chair, twisted his beard and smiled: "Even if the filial piety period is over, you and your mother can slowly show her each other." ”

"What did you say!" Xue was even angrier.

You still want me to help her find someone!

"Madame, angry, angry! That, although it is a dowry, but the sixth girl has no father and no mother, and Gorou is just a concubine, such a large amount of money, it is naturally better for her mother or my second uncle to help her take care of it. Gu Hejing shook his fingers and said with a chuckle.

Xue's anger sank suddenly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You mean to say?" ”

"What about this money, we will help the six girls to run it well, but there are always profits and losses in business, a few years, or longer, whether it is a profit or a loss, it depends on the will of God."

Gu Hejing smiled very kindly and amiably.
