Chapter 70: Flattery and Hospitality
It is an eternal truth that silver money opens the way, so even if it is a farmer and a businessman, a merchant has fallen into a downgrade, but silver money is the foundation of a foothold, these truths Yu Rao understood, thought about it and then said: "Food is the foundation of human life, and agriculture is also the foundation of a country."

Hearing that Yurao could still think of agriculture, the old lady felt that her granddaughter was really a plastic talent, nodded and praised: "Yes, the people take food as the sky, when people can not wear clothes or dress up, but they can't not eat, you must have seen from the accounts, the harvest on the Zhuangzi in the past few years has 10,000 catties of grain every year, even in the drought years, there are a lot, the wind and rain in the past two years are not as good as before." There are also shops that should have accumulated more customers, more profits, but now there are a lot of customers, the cost is also larger, but the profit is less, can you find these? ā
"Yes, my granddaughter saw it."
"Well, if you can understand these, it means that you haven't read this account book in vain, in my opinion, there is something wrong with it after all, if it is not for the deception of the head of the village, the shopkeeper has recorded a false account, then someone is seeking benefits from it."
Hearing the old lady's words, Yurao pretended to be surprised.
"Grandmother means that some of them are unfaithful and deliberately deceive?"
"Deception is not impossible, the so-called loyalty is not unchangeable, after all, these people are not in front of them, presumably people have also lived the life of the master and slave, but if this is not a natural disaster, then it is a man-made disaster, Yurao, you will be the housekeeper's housewife in the future, you know these things, you must put them in your heart, you can't show them to be noticed, and a thorough investigation from them is fundamental, understand?"
"Yes, Yurao obeys her grandmother's teachings."
"Well, that's a good boy, and grandmother will give you more in the future."
Brother Jie was brought back by Jiang Shaokun, and he didn't know if he was scared in prison, or if he was scared by beating people, after coming back, the whole person was cautious, and others would be frightened when they talked to him, which made Aunt Li feel distressed, and she stayed in front of her all day long, needless to mention.
The wound on Yurou's face, Aunt Li invited the best doctor in Liuzhou to treat her, Aunt Li took the opportunity to send a letter to Jiang Bojun in Jinling, and quickly sent a letter, when Jiang Bojun received it, it was already ten days later, and when he heard about Brother Jie, Jiang Bojun was also very anxious, but at that time, it was a critical moment for Jiang Bojun and his colleagues in Jinling to accept the inspection of superior officials, and they could not be distracted by each other's banquets, and the major affairs of the official position were important, so Jiang Bojun wrote back to her and said that he would not go back for reunion this year, and learned the news, Aunt Li's heart was half cold.
Now it is the old lady who is in charge of the housework, Aunt Li feels that her power has been deprived all of a sudden, how can she not be depressed, she is just an aunt, if she is the main mother, even if she has the identity of a flat wife, the old lady can not easily take away the power of the housekeeper, and think of Jiang Bojun taking Aunt Zhang and their Tianjinling for the New Year, she was sick like that some time ago and no one cared, a pair of children were separated from morality, and she only felt that life had lost its meaning and direction.
Then I heard that Yurao was learning to be a housekeeper, how could she not be in a hurry? If you have the status of a flat wife, wouldn't it be justified to take care of things? Although Jiang Bojun is not at home at the moment, the old lady is still there, although she has offended the old lady before, but she thinks that as long as she can live well, the old lady will definitely not be as harsh on herself as before, and the most important thing is that the old lady is not Jiang Bojun's biological mother after all, why has she held on to the power of the family for a long time?
Thinking about it like this, Aunt Li also wanted to open it, isn't it just to bow low and be small? Didn't she just do it once or twice? is so good to please the old lady, isn't she still the "big lady" of the inner house? Thinking like this, he also went to Minghui Hall to ask the old lady to come up.
And Yurao as usual, she went to Ninghui Hall in the morning to ask Mrs. Jiang for peace, now it is not as good as before, now the old lady is in charge, naturally she can't be as unruly as before, morning and dusk are essential, Yurao married Gao Zhiyuan in her previous life, she had to serve her mother-in-law every day, that is, she only rested for a while before she died, and now she is just asking for peace, and she doesn't have to do many other things, and people don't feel tired.
Just like that, Song Ma was still distressed, when she went out in the morning, it was cold and the road was slippery, Song Ma and Chunqiao were afraid that Yurao would freeze, so they wore a thick embroidered brocade jacket for her, and she was still wearing a fur coat outside, wrapped like a zongzi, when Yurao arrived, the old lady smiled and squinted.
Mrs. Jiang is in her early forties, with a high nose and narrow eyes, and thin lips, such a person is said to have a ruthless and unrighteous face, and she is not smiling when she sees the situation, but she eats fast and recites Buddha all year round, but she has developed a good character.
and well-maintained, it looks like she is in her thirties, if she is not deliberately old-fashioned, she is inseparable from Aunt Li, who is tired all year round.
Combed his homely hair, wiped his forehead with blue satin and gold silk, inserted a jade bead hairpin, and a satin jacket embroidered with pomegranate flowers in ginger, it looked like he had two points of kindness.
Yurao didn't expect the old lady to wake up so early, she specially ordered to come over early so that she could wait to get up, but she didn't expect that people had already gotten up.
Hurriedly stepped forward to ask for a greeting, the old lady saw Yurao, so she ordered someone to take off her clothes and put on the bird's nest again, so she pulled Yurao and sat down to chat with herself.
"Grandmother, why do you get up so early, it's cold outside, why don't you rest more?" Yurao didn't expect that as soon as the sky was hazy, Mrs. Jiang would get up.
The old lady smiled and looked at Yu Rao, Yu Rao was wearing well today, with the joy of the New Year, she wore an orange flower-sprinkling dress, Song Ma was afraid that she would be cold, and she also wore a lotus jacket, her pink face was still red, her red lips were not red, and she grew a little taller, and she became more and more enchanting of a big girl.
Old Madam Jiang looked at Yurao and nodded secretly.
The two of them talked for a while, and Aunt Li patted her hand affectionately and said, "You girl, you have always been early, I didn't know that you were the most filial." ā
Aunt Li, who happened to be in a hurry but was still late, heard this sentence and almost didn't get angry, this old pious woman said that Yurao is the most filial, is this simply a slap in the face? The dignified Jiang family is such a filial descendant?
Although Aunt Li was full of anger, she didn't dare to attack, let alone being heard by her, even if it was said directly on her face? What is she? Although she is not Jiang Bojun's biological mother, she is also the stepfamily that Ming Media is marrying, and now she is the old lady of the Jiang family, a serious master, Aunt Li can only feel that her fate is not good, and she has to pretend to be okay and work hard to flatter and be courteous.
