"Yurao, have you seen it? These are no ordinary ledgers, they require you to manage your dowry in advance. Yu Rao glanced at the old lady pointed out a few account books for her, that is now the old lady in the hands of a few good shops in Jinling are not bad, the old lady in the previous life gave her those shops, as well as the Zhuangzi with a good harvest, although these are Li Jiao's left, but after all, the old lady has been kept for many years, this silver thing is the most likely to attract greed, the old lady did not hide her secrets at all, all handed over to Yu Rao, which made Yu Rao really admire.
"Grandmother, these are all good shops that are running now, do you want to give it to me?" Yurao knows that business has become more and more difficult to do in the past two years, and these good shops have been given to herself, presumably some people will be dissatisfied.
"Of course, this was left to you by your mother, and to tell you the truth, I took it upon myself to divert all the previous profits for other purposes."
"Grandmother is serious, I guess you use it for our brother and sister."
The old lady sighed, the money she used was indeed for the Jiang family, but more for Jiang Bojun.
"This seal was left by your mother, and now I will give it to you." The old lady said, and asked Mama Zhou to bring over an iron box, which was also strictly locked, and the old lady used the key on her waist to open the lock and took out a purple jade seal, which was a token given to the old lady by Li Jiao.
"This is left by your mother, it was your brother and sister, and your grandmother is just in custody, and it is only right to hand it over to you."
The old lady is not an unreasonable person, originally those shop Zhuangzi were Li Jiao's dowry when she got married, and after so many years of being kept by the old lady, the old lady also used a lot of money on her own initiative, of course, this money is still used for Jiang Bojun, but now that Yurao is an adult, these things should be returned to the original owner.
Yurao naturally knows that the old lady is the most sensible, but now that she has handed it over to herself, it is inevitable that Jiang Bojun will stiffen in the future?
Yurao looked at the purple jade seal with some hesitation.
The old lady knew that Yurao was sensible, and she also knew what it would mean for the Jiang family's economy if this shop was handed over, but she couldn't delay it any longer.
"Good boy, this seal should have been yours, and grandmother just kept it for you."
As she was talking, the little maid came in to report, saying that Wang's mother from the needlework room was here, seeing this, Yurao hurriedly collected the seal and waited for Wang's mother to come in and reply.
Mother Wang is the old mother of the needlework room, is for the old lady to send the new clothes that have just been made in the New Year, the old lady saw Mother Wang take out the clothes, nodded happily, pointed to the most beautiful rose red skirt and said to Yurao: "This color is good, fresh, you can wear the most suitable." ā
Yurao saw that the skirt was the best embroidery, and it was made of rare Shu brocade, and her eyes couldn't help but be wet, she didn't expect the old lady to be so attentive to her, although she was not her own grandmother, but it was not much better than her own grandmother.
"Thank you grandmother for your care for Yurao."
"Silly boy, what are you talking about, you are my granddaughter, what's wrong with wearing a few beautiful clothes, you have been filial piety for your mother for a few years, and now that the New Year is over, it's time to wear some fresh colors, this dress is not worthy of anyone else, grandmother sees you as the most suitable."
"No, the old lady's vision is good." Mother Wang said with a smile.
When a few people were talking about their happiness, they only heard the maid report that Aunt Li was coming, and the old lady couldn't help but wonder: Isn't she sick? Why is it still here?
"Let her in." The old lady commanded, and Mother Wang put away her clothes.
When Aunt Li went in after the report, it happened that Yurao was also there, sitting under the window looking at a stack of account books, probably tired of reading, rubbing her eyes, and the old lady was inspecting the new clothes sent over for the New Year in the sewing room, and the picture looked particularly harmonious.
"The concubine has seen the old lady and the young lady." Hearing Aunt Li's greetings, Yurao hurriedly stood up, and when the old lady saw Aunt Li, she hurriedly beckoned and said, "Your illness is finally cured, come over and take a look at the new clothes that have just been made." ā
Aunt Li saw that the old lady was still so leisurely and comfortable, and it was inevitable that she felt uncomfortable, but now that her son was in the water and fire, they were here leisurely, it was too much of a deception.
"Old lady, the concubine is not here to see new clothes, the concubine has something to ask the old lady."
When the old lady heard Aunt Li's words, she frowned, waved her hand to let the person in the sewing room go down first, and said with a slight displeasure: "What do you mean by this?" ā
"Old lady." Aunt Li knelt down as she spoke. "Please save him for the sake of our brother Jie is also the master's flesh and blood."
"Where did you say this, didn't Brother Jie follow his eldest brother to watch the New Year's ceremony? Why do you want to save him again, what do you mean by that? ā
Before Aunt Li came, she had already heard the little maid say that this development had gone through, so she said: "Old lady, the concubine just heard that Brother Jie was sued by the yamen, and now he is in prison. ā
"What? Yamen? When the old lady heard this, she stood up angrily, and Yurao saw the old lady like this, so she hurriedly went over to help.
"Grandmother, don't worry, listen to her in detail." Aunt Li did things tactfully, why did she go straight and go straight today, so she asked: "Auntie, Brother Jie didn't follow my brother to watch the New Year's ceremony, why did he enter the yamen, do you really hear this?" ā
Aunt Li originally watched Yu Rao and the old lady talking and laughing, and her heart was not happy, her son was in prison, and their mothers were happy here, what a big gap this is, so when she heard Yu Rao's words, she didn't blame herself for the previous tone, but held her head high and said: "Why is it not real, now it has spread outside." ā
"So, Brother Jie really committed a crime and was arrested?" Yurao asked suspiciously.
"But no, I'm also curious, obviously I was watching the New Year's ceremony, why did I go to prison, didn't someone assassinate me?" Aunt Li meant what she meant when she said this.
"Bastard, can you say this casually?" When the old lady heard this, how could she not know what Aunt Li was thinking.
Aunt Li is not doing things right, her mind is not pure enough, but everyone thinks that others are evil, as if they want to harm her, which makes the old lady extremely disgusted, when Jiang Bojun was in the house, Aunt Li used to bow low and be small, when people carry people one set back, Jiang Bojun was deceived by it, the old lady has no choice, now Jiang Bojun is in Jinling, is it possible to let a concubine bully her own head?
