I didn't come back until late in the evening. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yan Shu saw it and quipped: "I ran all day long, but now I am about to become the eyes and ears of Miss." ”

Dye Hua smiled: "Sister, don't laugh at me, we don't all do things for Miss." ”

Yan Shu said: "Whoever laughs at you, come in, Miss will ask you every two hours." ”

Yuxuan saw the dyeing painting coming in, and hurriedly put down the pen in her hand and asked, "What did you inquire about?" ”

Dye said: "Miss Yu, the slave maid followed the eldest master all the way, and when she was about to leave the city, the slave and maid came back." However, the slave and maid saw clearly, the eldest lord and they went to the capital, and they brought more than three boxes of things. ”

"To Kyori?" Yuxuan was a little puzzled, if it was said that she was going to Beijing to give gifts, it should be her father or second uncle.

What did the eldest uncle do when he went to Kyori with a few boxes of things? To whom?

Seeing Yuxuan pondering, Dye Hua said: "Miss don't be embarrassed, when the slave came back, she had already found someone to bring a message to Chang'an, so that he could pay attention to the eldest master." I was able to give a reply a year ago. ”

Yuxuan listened, so she put this matter aside for the time being, and only asked if the person with the message was unreliable, and said that she was looking for a special errand on the street to give enough silver.

It's almost the New Year, and the Jiang family compound has a lot of happy events this year, and there is a lot of joy up and down.

Jiang Wu couldn't be busy, so he pulled An Shi over.

The whole compound is staggered, busy and busy, sweeping the house and asking for incense. No one was idle to sacrifice stoves, seals, write Spring Festival couplets, and do New Year's goods.

When the message came from Chang'an, Yuxuan was finishing writing the Spring Festival couplets and pasting them in her west wing, and followed Qingqi to learn the Layue song: "Twenty-three, the sugar melon is sticky; twenty-four, sweep the house; Twenty-five, grinding tofu; Twenty-six to cut the meat; Twenty-seven, slaughter the rooster; Twenty-eighth, put the face hair; Twenty-nine, steamed steamed buns; Stay up for 30 nights, and twist and twist on the first day of the new year. Yo, there are dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve every year. ”

Yuxuan smiled on Qingqi: "It's so funny, I haven't seen steamed steamed buns and dumplings in the south, they are all rice cakes and reunion fruits." ”

Mo Qin said: "This year, let's celebrate the New Year in Anqing, I heard Sister Huixiang say that it is interesting to celebrate the New Year in Beijing, and everyone goes to the street on Chinese New Year's Eve to drive away: shun the street, walk the alley, and go home." Alas, I don't know if Anqing is so lively? ”

Yan Shu said: "Even if we are in Beijing, the old lady will not let us go to the street casually, at most let us light firecrackers in the yard to play." ”

Yuxuan said: "I really want to be in the capital to make what you say, and it is more lively to have my sister and sister Liu." ”

Dye Hua poked his head outside the door, and was seen by the sharp-eyed Moqin, and immediately drank: "What are you doing sneakily?" Everyone is busy, where did you run again. ”

As soon as the words fell, Yuxuan coughed heavily.

Qingqi stood up and pulled Moqin and said, "We have nothing to do, Madame can't be busy, you come with me to see if I can help." ”

Saying that, he dragged Moqin away, leaving Yuxuan, Qingqi said: "Why don't you have a long memory, how many times have you said it, don't worry too much about dyeing and painting them." Dyeing and painting is now dedicated to running errands for the young lady, what are you doing to train her? ”

Mo Qin actually regretted it as soon as he said it, and said, "Good sister, I was wrong. I'll apologize to Miss when I get back. ”

Qingqi was laughed at by her: "I don't care about you, I have to do my own thing." ”

Seeing Qingqi pulling Moqin away, Yuxuan stood up and motioned for Dye Hua to enter the house with her.

After entering the house and sitting down, Yuxuan asked, "Have you got a reply?" ”

Dye said: "Miss, say it to scare you and you jump." I was shocked when I heard it just now. ”

Yuxuan smiled: "It's useless to talk less, talk quickly!" ”

Dye said: "Chang'an took the letter and went to the Xicheng Jiang family's house in Beijing, and the eldest master has just arrived. I moved a lot of boxes into it. Chang'an didn't dare to leave the air, and saw the eldest master take a box of things out every day. ”

Speaking of this dyeing and painting stopped, Yuxuan was annoyed: "You should still tell the story, and leave an introduction, hurry up." ”

Dye Hua smiled and said, "I'm thirsty, can the young lady reward the slave maid for tea." ”

Yuxuan threw the teacup over angrily: "I will reward you!"

Dye and painted a hippie smile and drank a sip of water, and then said: "Chang'an followed for a few days, and found that the eldest man went out with a box of things every day, and only let a handlebar type drive the car, avoiding the next person, but he went to the pawnshop, and when he came back, the box was gone. The long installation looked like he was going to be a thing, and asked casually: Who was that person just now, bringing such a big box. The pawnshop guy replied that he was here to be a thing, all of them were good things, there were antiques and rare things from the West, and it was estimated that a big family couldn't get by, and began to eat the old book. ”

After speaking, his eyes were shining and staring at Yuxuan.

Yuxuan was taken aback when she heard this: "Is the family unable to make ends meet?" The eldest uncle actually started to be a thing? Does grandmother know? ”

Dye Hua smiled bitterly: "Miss, I really can't find out about this, and I'm not the emperor's secret guard." ”

Yuxuan smiled: "I'm optimistic about you, my little secret guard." ”

Dye said: "Miss is used to making fun of me. ”

Yuxuan praised her for doing a good job, rewarded her with a pair of gold earrings, and took the painting out happily.

Yuxuan leaned on the couch and couldn't figure it out, the Jiang family was really so poor that they had to live as a thing? Not to mention that the second uncle pays to the public every year, only that the father pays 10,000 taels of silver to the public every year, as well as the etiquette of several carts during the New Year's holidays, and the Jiang family compound will not be reduced to being a thing for the New Year.

Although Mrs. Jiang and the second old lady lived in the Jiang family's compound, the money was all separated.

Only Mrs. Jiang lives in this compound with her eldest uncle's family and the second uncle's family, even if she spends 10,000 taels a year on big fish and meat every day.

Could it be that the eldest uncle fell into a bottomless pit in business? The more Yuxuan thought about it, the more uneasy she became, if it was really a financial problem here, it would be difficult to ensure that the old lady would not stretch out her hand to her home.

Because her father and second uncle were officials, the old lady always thought that it was the eldest uncle who provided for her younger brother to study, and he deserved to enjoy the worship of his younger brothers.

If it was really the uncle's business turnover, the old lady would definitely reach out to her father and second uncle.

But Yuxuan thought about Mrs. Jiang's performance in the past few days, and there was nothing abnormal.

It was not a solution to sit and think nonsense, so Yuxuan decided to go to Mama Tian and ask.

Mother Tian was accompanying An Shi to arrange the sacrifice and Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in Qingren Courtyard, and when she heard that the fourth lady had something to find her, she hurried over.

Yuxuan said apologetically: "Mama is so busy, I'm really sorry that I asked you to come over." But I have something in my heart, and if I don't say it, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep. ”

Mama Tian didn't know what Yuxuan was doing, and she was shocked when she heard this: "What happened to the fourth young lady?" ”

Yuxuan asked her to sit down and smiled: "It's not me who has an accident." I just have something to ask grandma, recently you have followed your aunt and mother to deal with the feed, is the money at home okay? ”

"Very good, the money in the account office is paid very quickly, and it has never been in arrears. Why did the young lady ask this, is it necessary to use silver? Mama Tian asked.

Yuxuan heard that there was nothing proper in the account room of Gongzhong, and she didn't want to make extraneous branches, so she said: "I don't need silver, I'm just curious about how our family is so big, how the silver is spent." ”

Mama Tian heard this and smiled: "So that's the case, Miss waited for the New Year, and we went back to Beijing." You follow the lady and watch slowly, and you know how to preside over the feed. ”

Yuxuan's heart moved, and asked, "Mama, I heard that you helped take care of your mother's dowry?" ”

Mama Tian thought about it, and in the past six months, she didn't understand anything like when she was a child, and she began to be steady and sensible, and vaguely had the consciousness of the third lady, and said at the moment: "Miss Hui, the old slave helped to see the dowry of the lady in the past, but after returning to Beijing, it was handed over to the third lady to take care of." ”

Yuxuan was stunned: "Handed it over to my sister?" ”

Mama Tian said: "Yes, the third lady has been raised by Mrs. An's side since she was a child, and what she learned is how to preside over the feed of the housewife, and Mrs. An and Mrs. An also agreed, and handed over the lady's dowry to the third lady to take care of and exercise her." ”

Seeing that Yuxuan was shocked again, she continued: "Fourth Miss don't worry, when you reach your age and need to exercise, Madame's dowry will also be handed over to you to help take care of." ”

Yuxuan was dizzy and sent Mama Tian back.

It turned out that my mother's dowry had always been taken care of by my sister, and I would have a chance in the future, but why didn't anyone mention this to me in my previous life?
