Chapter 212: Miss Bai who loves to count accounts
actually ignored her so much, she was also the one who served their girl closely, when did she need to grovel to others so much! She will definitely tell the girl, let the girl tell the queen mother, and clean up this arrogant woman.
When Jinxiu viciously cursed Liu, she suddenly felt a piercing chill behind her, only to see the beautiful woman who was not like a human showing a meaningful smile at her, and that smile was full of ridicule and endless coldness......
"Sister." The steady young master saw his sister and immediately pounced, but was ruthlessly intercepted.
Birch grabbed the little guy's back with one hand. "I really envy you, you don't have to go to the school when it's raining heavily today."
"Are Dad and Brother going to the court?" Bai Kyaukjiao mixed two parts of noodles for each of them, a jajanjang-myeon noodles topped with thick toppings, and a noodle soup with green onions.
"Dad wants to go to court in the inner hall, our grade is not enough, only in the outer hall, if there is a communication, there will be our business." Shirakaba was so interested in the fleshy noodles that a third of them were gone. "Hmm, this tastes good, and it makes you feel good when you eat it!"
"You like all the meat." Bai Li's taste is lighter with Liu's, and he is more interested in noodle soup. "We're still good, the lower grades can only be seen outside, on the steps, basically although they are in the court, they can't see the saint for a few years. It's such a big one today, I'm afraid it will be canceled. ”
"I also think, are the brothers waiting for the transmission?"
"Let's go first." It's like going to work, if the big Persian doesn't want to have a meeting, he will let them go back, then they can go back to their respective homes, go to the office to squat if they have something to do, and go home to rest if they have nothing to do.
"I see."
"It's not early, you can go quickly after eating, if you have nothing to do, come back early, and take a sedan chair if the weather is bad." Liu Shi read as he gave the noodles that he couldn't eat to his father.
Father Bai has not tasted Bai Jiaojiao's craftsmanship for many years, and even his stomach has not stopped. "Kyaukjiao is back, I'm afraid that Daddy's belly won't be able to go down."
"I don't dare to go to the kitchen for fear of gossip."
"Who dares to gossip about you at home, and there are no outsiders."
"Why are there no outsiders?" Bai Jiaojiao smiled casually.
Bai Ziqi was stunned and puzzled.
Instead, Liu put the chopsticks down, "It's all over, it's time to go out, Da Lang, you add a piece of clothing." ”
Bai Jiaojiao followed to the door. "Come back early, I've got a surprise for you."
The men of the Bai family waved their hands to prevent them from being sent out in the rain, and each got into the carriage.
"You." Liu asked the maids to clean up the table and shook their heads at Bai Jiaojiao. "Why bother your father, I'm going to teach Ah Lian later, can you do it?"
"No, I'll ask Uncle Lu to fetch me the account book at home, I'll look at the account first, and I won't need lunch." I have other arrangements for the afternoon. ”
Liu nodded. "Understood, I'm not going to let anyone bother you."
Bai Jiaojiao and Green Sleeves went back to their own small courtyard, except for the two slightly older rough envoys given by Liu, the others were all people she brought herself, and now they are gathering in the courtyard to eat.
As if she knew her preferences, her yard was more detailed than the others, and in addition to the usual rooms, she also split a separate study, a small kitchen, and a storeroom. This also happens to allow the people she brings to correspond to their own positions.
"Miss, that woman this morning......"
"I haven't seen it either, it seems that A-Niang doesn't want me to know." Bai Jiaojiao sat at the desk, but she still knew that she made people stare at the Bai family and only stared at the people she cared about, but there were still some unclean clowns who jumped off the beam.
"So Miss pretended not to know, so let's not care?"
"My mother is a person with ideas, she won't be bullied by a girl." From Liu's silent hand in the morning, she knew that a girl was nothing, and what she cared about was the queen mother that the girl said, so she couldn't wait to reach out to their backyard, and it was blatant. "Listening to that girl's tone, she and her master are both the queen mother's people, presumably because of this lady to give them a few points."
"What about us?"
"As long as they don't try to make trouble, we will be fine." Bai Jiaojiao put down the cup. "Greensleeves, go open the door."
Green Sleeves opened the door quickly, and sure enough, Steward Lu, who was holding the ledger for fear of getting wet, had already arrived at the door, obviously he didn't expect that he would open the door before he knocked, and the whole person was stunned.
"Uncle Ru, come in." Bai Jiaojiao tidied up the desk a little, "Sit." Don't be surprised, the journey from my father's study to mine is about 5,000 steps for a grown man. Counting sorting things, reporting to my mother, and other things, it won't exceed 5,800 steps in total. It's time for you to do the math. ”
Bai Jiaojiao raised his hand and flicked the small wind chime on the window, making a jingle bell. "But the most important thing is that whoever enters my yard will have someone ring this bell."
"This, very thoughtful. Miss Three seems to be proficient in mental arithmetic? Lu Dabai saw the thin silk thread hanging on the window, he didn't dare to underestimate this young lady, it was very tight.
"Nope." Bai Jiaojiao doesn't know how to write modesty, "I'm very good at making money." Not to mention anything else, as far as I know, in addition to the monthly income of my father and two elder brothers, the Bai family's income also has more than 500 acres of fertile land and 1,000 acres of inferior land. ”
The Bai family is also considered to have been self-produced by the ancestors for many generations, although it does not have the name of a marquis, but it actually has the respect of a marquis, and this property is still taken out. "There are dozens of ready-to-wear shops, grain and oil shops, etc., and this account alone has at least 1,000 taels of silver per month, and grain, oil and vegetables do not need to be spent."
took out a piece of paper casually, and didn't raise his white eyelids, "The food and clothing that is included in the weekdays can be supplied by the shop, and the rest of the expenses are left with the materials that cannot be supplied in the shop, which is a lump sum." Father, mother, and brother's daily communication rewards, people's monthly money, gentlemen for younger siblings, doctors and other messy items, you see if there are any missing projects. ”
Lu Dabai respectfully took the piece of paper, looked at it carefully, and then his eyes were full of amazement, he was sure that Bai Jiaojiao had never seen the Bai family's account book, but this amount was exactly the same. To be able to do this, in addition to knowing the daily routine of the big family, it is also necessary to have a clear understanding of the current price market. "There are a lot of items, and we don't need them in our house."
"Just change it on top." Bai Jiaojiao had already been stained with ink, and as soon as Lu Dabai looked up, the pen had been sent to him...
He took the pen handed by Bai Jiaojiao and crossed out the private items on it. "These people were bought by the government, and the wages were not so high. The monthly allowance of the young masters is not fixed, and if necessary, you have to apply with your wife alone. In addition to these, the young lady's list is clearer than this ledger, and the numbers are all right. (To be continued.) )
