49. Meng's industry

Caiwuyuan

What did you say?! Zheng sat in the hall and stared coldly at the stewards below, each of them as if they were squeezed out of their teeth.

The Zheng family has been in charge for many years, and the authority is very deep, and the steward couldn't help but shudder and repeated Nangong Mo's words with a bitter face.

Syllable!

Zheng raised his hand, put the teacup in his hand back to the ground, gritted his teeth and said: What a Nangong Mo!

The steward's eyes, noses, noses, and hearts dare not speak. The grandfather seems to be quite indulgent to the eldest lady, and the lady is in charge of the entire Chu State Mansion, if it is sandwiched into the fighting method between these two, it really responds to the sentence: The great god fights, and the little ghost suffers. I just hope that Madame doesn't take her anger out on him, thank God.

Mother, what's wrong? Nangong Shu walked in from the outside, followed by Nangong Jiao and Nangong Xu Nangong Hui, who looked innocent. Zheng's eyes fell on Nangong Xu, his expression paused slightly, and he hid his face and said: It's nothing. Nangong Jiao's eyes turned, and she walked over and hugged Zheng's arm and said, "Auntie, did anyone make you angry?" You tell Jiao'er, is it okay for Jiao'er to be angry for you?

Zheng couldn't help but smile, raised his hand and nodded Nangong Jiao's forehead and said: You girl, there is really nothing serious. It's just that......

Mother, if there is anything you tell Shu'er and the eldest brother and the second brother, let's help you think of a way. Nangong Shujiao said.

Zheng sighed, and pointed to the steward who was standing on the side and almost shrunk into a ball: "The eldest lady called the steward to inform me and asked me to hand over all the property left by my sister to her. The eldest lady is only sixteen years old now, and she lives in Danyang all the year round, where do you know these things in Jinling. The inheritance left by my sister is also a thought for the three of you, if something happens... Where do I still have the face to see my grandfather and my sister under Jiuquan?

Nangong Hui frowned slightly, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Nangong Xu's faint glance. Nangong Xu pondered for a moment and said: What Mother said is that Mo'er is still young and it is really not reassuring to hand over those properties to her.

Zheng sighed and said, "But isn't it, I thought... The eldest lady probably felt that fifteen taels of silver per month was not enough. The eldest lady has suffered in the past few years, so I will transfer some more here and give her twenty-five taels a month.

Mother! Nangong Shu is no longer dependent, she is only fifteen taels a month, and the eldest brother and second brother are only twenty taels, why is Nangong Mo only twenty-five taels alone? If it gets out, where will her face go? Not only Nangong Shu, but Nangong Jiao also had a little more jealousy in her eyes. Compared with Nangong Shu, Nangong Jiao, who is just the daughter of a fifth-grade official, only has two taels of silver per month. It's just that she will be coquettish and behaved, and Zheng and Nangong Huai give some rewards from time to time, so that life is more comfortable than others.

Shut up! Zheng glared at Nangong Shu and said: Your eldest sister has suffered a lot of grievances in the past few years, won't you, as a younger sister, let the eldest sister do a little?

But......

Madam. Nangong Hui said in a deep voice: I still don't need Mrs. subsidies, I still have some silver in my hand, and in the future, my eldest brother and I will allocate five taels of silver to Mo'er every month. The one who didn't let him speak just now, Nangong Hui was a little unhappy, but he couldn't bear to be disobedient to the eldest brother who raised him since he was a child, and at this time, he did it with Nangong Xu's master.

Monkey business! Zheng is helpless, your eldest brother is already married, and he also has to live.

Nangong Hui pouted and said: You can't live without your sister, right?

Zheng's eyes flashed and he looked at Nangong Xu. Nangong Xu said calmly: Just do what the second brother said.

Zheng had no choice but to nod, looked at Nangong Shu with an aggrieved face and said: In this case, the mother-in-law will give you five taels. You can't compete with your eldest sister anymore, you know? Nangong Shu nodded at this time and whispered: Shu'er knows.

Auntie, what about Jiao'er? Nangong Jiao hurriedly said.

A trace of disgust flashed in Zheng's eyes, but he quickly covered it up, and said with a smile: "The eldest aunt got a good thing before, and I will send it to you when I go back."

The eldest aunt is the best. Nangong Jiao said cheerfully.

What do you say so happy? Nangong Huai walked in, looked at everyone and asked with a smile. It was not surprising that he didn't see Nangong Mo and Nangong Huai, but there was a little more sigh and loss in his eyes. Zheng hurriedly got up and said: The master is here, and it just so happens that there are some things I want to discuss with the master.

Nangong Huai walked to the main seat and sat down, looking at Zheng and raising his eyebrows. Zheng said: Miss Fang Cai asked me to send someone to send someone to send my sister's property left, and she had to take care of it herself. I thought that the eldest lady was still young and had never been exposed to these ...... Nangong Huai nodded and said: The marriage between Mo'er and the Jingjiang County Mansion has been decided, and it must not be long before the Jingjiang County Mansion will also come to propose marriage and set a wedding date. These days, you can teach her those things that are well taught. And the dowry is also going to be prepared. As for her mother's estate... She is a girl who knows something, or you take care of it first. However, there are many places where she needs money when she just returns to Beijing, so you should first ask someone to send her a thousand taels to give her pocket money. And look at what her clothes and jewelry are missing, so that people can prepare more.

Zheng's expression was stunned, and his face was a little ugly for a while, master... A thousand taels is not somewhat... When did the master ever be so generous to Shu'er? Even if she is the only daughter in the house, Shu'er only receives fifteen taels of silver every month, except for the red envelopes given by the lord during the New Year's holidays. If she hadn't been in charge of this family, where would Shu'er's life be so beautiful? One thousand taels... It's enough for a young lady for several years. Listening to the old man's meaning, it's just pocket money.

Nangong Huai was also stunned, and soon waved his hand indifferently and said: Everyone is not rich in their hands, and they don't look good when they go out.

Zheng's face is even more ugly, isn't her sister-in-law a girl from everyone?!

In fact, this is really not to blame Nangong Huai for not caring about Nangong Shu. When Nangong Huai first met the Meng family, the concubines of the Meng family were like this, with a group of servants and pampered children. The big family with a deep heritage has always been tired of eating, and everything around them is fine, where can these powerful daughters be compared to today? To put it mildly, the princesses in the palace today are only afraid that they may not be as delicate as the Meng family back then. Therefore, Nangong Huai intuitively believed that it was only right that Meng's daughter should also be raised like this. As for Nangong Shu, she is naturally upbringing like the ladies in the capital.

Yes, sir, I'll have someone send it over in a moment. Zheng secretly gritted his teeth and reluctantly squeezed out a smile.

Nangong Huai nodded with satisfaction, looked at Nangong Shu's somewhat unhappy appearance and said with a smile: Shu'er should also make a few clothes and choose a few pieces of jewelry. But he never mentioned the matter of giving Nangong Shu extra silver. The girls of all families are raised like this, and the case silver of the Nangong family can even be regarded as the top in Jinling City, and Nangong Huai doesn't realize that there is anything wrong.

Nangong Shu smiled reluctantly, Shu'er thanked her father.
