Wen Wan lifted the colorful tea lid, tumbled the tea, took a small sip, felt a little hot, and smiled lightly after putting it down, "The third master is now serving in the military department, and he is doing a good job." "The three masters can recover, all thanks to the blessing of Bai Shinian. Of course, to be more precise, it is the luck of the two weddings, "people, people are running in, with this matter, people also took the opportunity to give this favor ♀ to the Bai family, which is definitely a good signal flare."

Xi Shi was surprised and delighted, "Oh, the county lord is very familiar with Mrs. Yu?" But after saying that, I felt like I had said something stupid. Mrs. Yu's pearl in the palm of her hand is not a friend with Wen Wan! Xi Shi was overjoyed now. If this is the case, then his master's future will be very good.

The eldest lady covered her mouth next to her and said with a smile, "Third brother and sister, why did you forget?" Miss Yiyi of Mrs. Yu's family is a close friend of the county lord, and she became one of the eight talented women in the capital with the county lord back then. "I think back then, Xi's future after relying on her husband, the dowry is rich, there is no need to wear Qinghe, there is no less to wear Qinghe's small shoes, it is a daily fighting method, plus the following a few to join in the fun, the Hou Mansion was also very lively back then! In addition, Bai Shihua's backyard is a mess, so please and the days of the year are also glorious on the face, and there are also their own sufferings inside. Of course, this kind of suffering, eight out of ten noblewomen in the capital are like this. Later, when I went to the General's Mansion, the outer courtyard was controlled by the Feng family, and the Feng housekeeper in the inner courtyard only trusted Qinghe. Xi's arrogance has just subsided. Now that Bai Shinian is married to Wen Wan, in the end Qinghe has the upper hand.

Xi didn't pay much attention to Qinghe's mockery, and the most important thing at the moment was her husband's future. To take Mrs. Yu's line is to have a relationship with the Yu family. The so-called county officials do not care about the current management. No matter how high Bai Shinian's position is, it is thousands of miles away, and Lord Yu. But it's a top boss. If he can take advantage of this relationship through gentleness, his husband's future will not be worried.

Wen Wan said lightly: "It's all when I was young." I don't remember it now. Wen Wan's words indirectly showed that she had no contact with Mrs. Yu for a long time. Otherwise, the word "don't remember" would not be used. The use of this word also means that contact has been severed.

Xi didn't expect Wen Wan to come to such a sentence. She was awe-inspiring. Wen Wan deliberately said this, and she must have meant something. Yu Yiyi is a gentle lady, and she has cut off contact with the Yu family∏ doesn't it also mean that she has broken off her friendship with Yu Yiyi. What's that going on? Wen Wan's words are not warning her.

The eldest lady Qinghe took the initiative to talk about the matters in the mansion, "County Lord, now there are thirty-six maids in the general's mansion, forty-six household servants, twenty-four sprinkler mothers-in-law, twenty-eight people in the kitchen, and fifty-four people brought back by the sixth brother. ”

Wen Wan frowned. More than fifty guards is no problem, even two hundred guards should be wanted. Now in Wen Wan's eyes, the more walls there are, the more powerful the better, safe. But there are more than 100 people in the maids' family. The master did not have any one in the mansion ▲ What do so many people do. All of them are feeding and eating, and it is easy to make this money.

Wen Wan thought, there must be a lot of cats in this. Layoffs must be made, and Wen Wan never raises idlers. However, if you want to lay off people, you have to talk to Bai Shinian. As for how to get it. Follow Bai Shinian's advice before making a plan.

Wen Wan let go of these questions for the time being, and asked specific matters, "Then how do you spend these specifically?" Also, what is the income in the general's mansion, the general's I know has a fortune, and the imperial village that was rewarded before, this mansion. In addition to these. Are there any other benefits? "For Bai Shinian from the emperor's hands. Wen Wan knows a lot. The rest is not clear.

Xi Shi felt a sigh in his heart. There was a cold sweat on his forehead.

The eldest lady explained everything clearly, "The general's mansion refers to the setting of the Hou Mansion, the first or two and second-class maids of the big maid are 800 yuan, and the third-class maid and the sprinkler are all 500 yuan. All expenses are taken from the public account. As for the property, except for what the county lord said. And the dowry left by my mother-in-law when she passed away. There are forty dumps of land, four properties, and six shops. The emperor took all the properties of the Hou Mansion, and returned Bai Shinian's mother's dowry to Bai Shinian according to the dowry list.

There is a reason for this, and at that time, the copyist did not copy anything. When Bai Shinian heard the news, he went on an excerpt. He returned a few relics of his deceased mother as a souvenir. The emperor didn't really care about the tens of thousands of taels of silver. But for Bai Shinian, that may have special significance. So. simply returned all the dowry to him according to the dowry list.

Wen Wan nodded. At the moment, he asked strangely, "Who set the rules for monthly money, is it a general or a big butler?" "According to the theory, this should have been established a long time ago.

Qinghe shook his head: "It was the old lady who set ♀ it in the General's Mansion at the beginning, and they were all set according to the specifications of the same grade at that time. If the county lord thinks it is inappropriate, he can correct it. ”

Wen Wan smiled and said, "No, it's good to × sister-in-law." ”

Qinghe heard this sister-in-law, and felt a lot more comfortable. Calling Xi the third lady and calling herself the sister-in-law, the difference between relatives can be seen at once.

The third lady's face stiffened a little, "What He knows, how can she not know." It's just that she can fight with Qinghe, that's because she has a dependence, and she will have to be separated in the future, and Qinghe can't help her. But it's not the same today. Moreover, if she really dared to express her dissatisfaction with Wen Wan, she didn't want to her husband and son when she had lived enough.

Wen Wan smiled indifferently: "Sister-in-law, who are those first-class maids and second-class maids serving?" "There are no masters, where to go to divide the big maid and the second-class maid. It's funny to listen to.

Qinghe said that these were all set in the General's Mansion at the beginning. The so-called big maids and second-class maids are all served by the masters of each room. Not only that, but a few people who came over to ask for monthly money were noisy. It made Steward Feng very angry, if this was the case, he would spend a few hundred taels of silver every month. Don't mention anything else, that's it, a few rooms always say it's not good and that's bad. Steward Feng later took advantage of that incident to sweep them out of the house.

Wen Wan saw that the atmosphere must have stiffened again, and changed the topic: "Okay, don't talk about this, try the flower tea I personally concocted, it tastes very good." If you feel good, you can take some back. Drinking regularly is good for the body. After Wen Wan finished speaking, she brought tea and drank it. Well, it tastes really good.

The eldest lady answered with a smile, "Then I'm welcome, wrap some for me and take it back to taste fresh." "I didn't expect Wen Wan to be so busy, and it is rare to have such leisure °C. I also married and tried the flower tea made by Wen Wan herself.

The third lady's face was so stiff that she couldn't do it, and she said no, she was not used to drinking.

Wen Wan saw this. I don't want to say anything more. Because it's not necessary. After serving the tea, he put it down again, and the person said goodbye with interest.

Qinghe Xiao Wen Wan can take care of some blood in the end, although Wen Wan is out of the clan, but as a concubine, in the end she is closer than others. If Wen Wan could take care of them a little, her three sons would also have a good future. But just now, she couldn't see the gentle attitude∧ and there was no bottom in it. I thought about going back and talking to my husband.

After Qinghe and the eldest lady separated, they were about to go back to the courtyard where they were temporarily staying. A maid approached and whispered a few words in the ear of the eldest lady. The eldest lady turned back again.

Xi Shi soon got the news, and his face was depressed. The disparity in status is too great, and she can't even resent. Who is Wen Wan willing to lift. What opinion can she make. can only be envious.

The eldest lady said respectfully, "County Lord." ”

Wen Wan smiled, her expression was gentler than just now, "Sit down, you don't need to be so polite ∽ we are concubines." In terms of blood, we are still cousins. I remember at the time. You also gave me a set of snail jewelry. So beautiful jewelry, my sister-in-law must have spent a lot of effort to choose! ”

Wen Wan's words made the eldest lady's heart feel relieved, and it seemed that she was doing the right thing. Wen Wan, this is to use the events of the year to shorten the distance between the two. It's a kind of overture. Wen Wan has this heart, and she is content. She wasn't really naïve, thinking that Wen Wan would treat her as a cousin. At the beginning, the two could be regarded as equals, but now, they have to respect.

"I called you back just to ask. How much money was spent on the wedding. "That's all Wen Wan is interested in. The others are all small heads. She wasn't interested in dealing with it either. And. Before, Steward Feng was in charge, and these people didn't live in the General's Mansion. I can't catch it if I want to.

The eldest lady said one by one, "The wedding cost about 70,000 taels of silver, of which 10,000 taels is the emperor's reward; 50,000 taels is what the sixth brother has accumulated over the years; At that time, there was not enough money, so I went to the bank and borrowed 30,000 taels of silver. ”

Wen Wan smiled and nodded, knowing a number in her heart. So I stopped talking about it, and what the result would be. Check it up, and she'll know it in her heart. However, according to Wen Wan's guess, Bai Shinian would definitely not ask for decent money if he wanted to take care of it ♀. Let Bai Shinian spend money to buy a lesson.

Wen Wanxiao asked about other things: "Mingguang followed Shang Wei to do things in Guangyuan, and it is not easy to do things in Guangyuan Bank. What do you think. Are you still used to doing things in it? "Guangyuan Bank's welfare package is very good, but the entry conditions are harsh. It doesn't matter whose relationship it is. Even the people sent by the emperor can't pass the assessment, and it's a gentle hard rule that they are not allowed to enter ♀. And it's not easy to get inside.

The eldest lady smiled and said, "It's good, I originally asked Ming Zhi to go too, but Ming Zhi didn't pass those assessments." But the bright light that accompanied the going passed through. This is also the reason why the eldest lady saw that none of the Qinghe family could make money. Originally, I wanted Qinghe to go to Yiyuan. Mingji and Mingguang disagreed. I don't want my mother to give others a smile. So, I begged Shang Wei. As a result, Mingguang entered.

Wen Wan smiled, which only proved that Ming Yi was not very interested in numbers. It's not this piece of material," Mingguang went to Guangyuan Commercial Bank. Is Mingzhi at home now? At a young age, burying one's head at home can be wasted for the rest of your life. Wen Wan could see that Bai Shinian was unwilling to take Ming Ji with him. Ming Ji doesn't know martial arts, and he can't take care of Bai Shinian even if he wants to take care of it.

Qinghe sighed. If she is physically strong, and has some martial arts foundation to follow Bai Shinian to the future, she will definitely not stop her. But the people of the Bai family are strong in martial arts except for Bai Shinian. None of the others have this talent (not that they are not talented, but that no one is willing to let their children suffer this hardship). She knows best that Mingjie is a shoulder that can't be picked up, and her hand can't be lifted. Bai Shihua's meaning was to ask Bai Shinian to help arrange a light and provincial, similar clerical position in the barracks. Bai Shinian also agreed. However, it also made it clear that in the army, military merit is fundamental, and if Ming Yi can't get military merit, he can't go far.

But Bai Shihua's attitude is very resolute, and it is better to not go far than to be white. Ming Ji also wants to go, if he loses this opportunity, he will have to be white for the rest of his life. So, although he was afraid in his heart. But he still said he wanted to go.

Qinghe was entangled in this matter during this time. Not only does the son not only can't stand the wind and sand exposure there, but also has to have all kinds of dangers, if the Pang family knows about it, it is likely to ruin the family. Therefore, Qinghe heard Wen Wan ask about Mingzhen at this time, and he had a small expectation in his heart. It would be nice if Wen Wan could open her mouth to help.

Gentle and white are not the same. Bai Shinian can only speak in the army. Wen Wan has a wide range of contacts in the capital. As long as you have a heart, things that are clear will naturally be easy to do. So, there is no beating around the bush at the moment. directly said Bai Shihua's plan. At the moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Where can I be a mother, my son will have a chance." However, Mingxi's child was also pampered since he was a child. After raiding the house, although he suffered a little. But we have the blessing of the sixth brother. Food and clothing are worry-free. If you go to the border pass, the lover is extremely cruel, and I heard that he eats human flesh and drinks human blood. Mingjie has no foundation. I really didn't dare let him go. Moreover, if Ming Zhen really went to the border pass, I don't know how to explain it to the Pang family. ”

Wen Wan asked a little strangely: "Mingzhi is also quite old, and the girl of the Pang family has already reached the end of her life." Why haven't you gotten married yet? Could it be that the Pang family deliberately delayed and wanted to destroy their relatives. Wen Wan just said that. If you destroy your family, you should destroy your family when something happens. There is no need to wait until the girl is married, when she wants to get married, she ♀ will ruin her relatives and sincerely pit her own girl.

Qinghe hurriedly shook his head: "No, it's the girl of the Pang family who wants to keep filial piety." Filial piety that was only completed at the beginning of this year. "Mrs. Pang does have the intention of destroying her relatives. In fact, Mrs. Pang didn't want to destroy her relatives back then. It's just that the huge people don't want to. Later, Mrs. Pang passed away and kept her filial piety. After full filial piety, Qinghe came to the door to discuss marriage. As a result, Mrs. Pang's eyes are not eyes, and her nose is not a nose.

Qinghe was so ashamed at the time. After Ming Yi knew. Propose to withdraw from the family. is also stimulated by this, so although Mingyi is scared, he still doesn't want people to look down on him, "Since you don't want to, you can't make enemies." So Mrs. ∮ who wanted to withdraw from her relatives was naturally happy, thinking that it would not be bad to marry a woman to her nephew∮ but the eldest lady was unwilling, and threatened to show Mrs. Pang if she quit her family∮ Mrs. was angry. So it's been dragged on until today.

Wen Wan's eyes flashed. She is not a person who does not understand the world. At the beginning of the year, it was full of filial piety, and if it was normal, it should be in April and May. But it's November now. Think about the Pang family, and then think about the current situation of the big house. Wen Wan has no bad impression of the Pang family∮ no matter what the family wants, they are already very kind if they haven't ruined their relatives for so many years. You must know that the emperor was resolute at that time, and countless relatives were divorced. It's okay to be like this. But Miss Huge is also a strong and intelligent one. Otherwise, she would not be able to marry a good family if she quit her family. It's better to marry Mingxi, at least Mingjie won't treat her badly with this. Of course. It can't be denied that this woman is indeed a good one. The others were not sure. But not to be poor and love rich is enough to be gentle and praised. It's easy to say, but there are a few more that can actually do it.

If there is no way, who is willing to send his powerless son to the border to run for the future. Wen Wan also asked with a plan in her heart. After hearing so much, he smiled and said, "Don't go to the border gate." Without a little martial arts foundation, not to mention that it is difficult to get promoted if he can't get military merits, he can't stand it in such a difficult environment, and the sixth ministry will recruit a group of officials in the spring next year. You let Mingzhi prepare, and if you can get a good ranking in the exam at that time, you will also be able to get a good job. With fame in his body, he has the confidence to kiss him, so as not to make the Pang family lose face. "The Sixth Department recruited a group of officials with nine grades and eight grades. For Wen Wan, it is also a matter of one sentence. Wen Wan said more certainly, in fact, there are two positions from the seventh grade. Although it is just some miscellaneous ones, you must know that some of the two Jinshi have to go from the official position ♀ of the seventh grade, and many people want to get their hands on it. Wen Wan didn't explain it thoroughly, because she didn't know how Ming Zhi had learned. If you can get into the top three, no, even if it's the top ten, Wen Wan will come forward. But if you rely on the ranking of the sky, Wen Wan will not come forward. Whether you can grasp the opportunity or not, that is to rely on your own ability. If she is incapable and can't help Adou, then she won't waste time. Will get by. When the time comes, it will be enough to have someone arrange a similar position. If she has real talent, she can help.

Kiyo Daiki "Really? "In Wen Wan's eyes, it is a low grade, but there are so many children of noble families in the capital, and it is also a future to be able to enter. At least it's the one who takes the money. Therefore, although it is said that eight or nine grades are relatively low official positions, they are also very popular because there are many monks and few porridges. For a place, everyone is also fighting fiercely. There's no way, there's really no money. However, there is no problem with gentle care now.

Wen Wan smiled: "I can still lie to you≡ but it's true." You let Mingzhi prepare well. ”

Qinghe was overjoyed: "Thank you, the county lord." "If you can enter the official mansion as an errand boy, then Mrs. Pang's attitude will also be good. She was able to hold her grandson too. Moreover, some people who have entered the career from this road have slowly boiled to the fourth grade, and some have even survived to the third grade≡ how much the son of the family can do, she knows in her heart. With gentle help, my son doesn't say three grades, but there is still hope for four grades. If so, there will be a lifetime of Luo" He is really a piece of heart disease and fell to the ground.

Wen Wan smiled: "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be like this. In any case, the eldest brother and the general are brothers of the same mother. Other generals may not pay attention, but you, he will not leave it alone. If you have any difficulty, just ask. If we can help, we won't refuse. Your family is doing well, and the general is at ease. Wen Wan could see that Bai Shinian was very pleased that Bai Shihua had grown. But deep down, I still want to help my three nephews. It's just that his connections determine that he can only develop in the army. It's a pity that none of the three nephews is this piece of material. Maybe Bai Shinian didn't mean it when he first said this to her.

But now that Bai Shinian has spoken, Wen Wan doesn't mind helping Qinghe's family. Wen Wan has never minded doing more. If Ming Ji really has a talent to learn, he will stay in the capital for three years. When the time comes, let it out for outsiders. More honing and honing, enough to support the door of the big house. Of course, if you don't have the talent to learn, then slowly boil it in the capital. With her, nothing can happen.

When Qinghe heard this, his heart felt like he had taken a reassuring pill. With gentle care and a bright future, it must be good. Mingguang will not be bad in Guangyuan Bank. As for the little Minghuai, it is serious to urge him to take the imperial examination.

Xia Xin and Xia Zhu came over after getting gentle words. Wen Wan asked them to check the accounts from the marriage to the present. She didn't have time to pay attention ♀ to the bad debts in the past, but she didn't pay attention to the debts that were still owed at this wedding, and she didn't care about them≤ she couldn't all of them embezzle, she would pay back the money. is so greedy for ink, and he still wants to take advantage of the mansion. It's a good idea, but it depends on whether she agrees or not.

Xia Xin and Xia Zhu have a lot of experience in this, and the two of them checked the accounts of two and a half months in an hour and a half. It is because Wen Wan only needs to know the general situation, and it is impossible to talk to them about the actual things one by one.

Wen Wan looked at the results of the two and laughed.

Xia Yao heard that the two of them reported that the final settlement ♀ was only an estimate. Xia Yao said with a cold face: "County Lord, these people are too bold, and °C is a black-hearted thing." "This is robbing while the fire is ∏ is too hateful.

Although Wen Wan had this suspicion before, she didn't expect the problem to be so serious. Not to mention Xia Yao, she was shocked ♀, and her hands were too long.

Wen Wan was a little incomprehensible: "Why do you think they dare to do such a thing so blatantly?" When Bai Shinian is a straw bale? Or when I'm blind. ”

Xia Yao pointed out the center: "The general will never pay attention to the accounting." As for the county lord, firstly, you have a lot of money and can't afford that little money, and secondly, you are a new wife. And if you get married, you will have to go back to the ♀ county lord's mansion for a few days, and some people are very calculating! ”

Wen Wan squinted her eyes: "You don't have to say the same thing." Even if it is traced, it is impossible for Bai Shinian to come back. Bai Shinian can't afford to lose this face. "When I drove these people out of the general's mansion, it was because of the good time. If not, it will also be criticized. It's the same today.

Xia Yao's face was gloomy: "County Lord, what should I do?" ”

Wen Wan knocked on the table: "When I came forward, it seemed that he was very incompetent." The affairs of the general's mansion were still handed over to Bai Shinian to deal with by himself. "Moreover, this is also the Bai family's business. If she disposes of it, Bai Shinian will not be able to get over it. (To be continued.) , () Vote for recommendation, monthly pass,,。
