"Since it's not here to target us, then don't worry about it, if you really can't do it, you change your business, and we're not a merchant family, so don't care too much about this!" Situ You looked at Cheng Yiyao with a faint smile and said.

"I think so too, I just have a rouge gouache shop in my hand, and it's a similar situation over there, how about you change the store?" Cheng Yiyao's dowry has two shops in the prosperous market, one of which is a rouge gouache shop, and the business has not been very good in the past few months.

Cheng Yiyao said that let the shopkeeper think about changing his livelihood, naturally he didn't really want him to learn to run other businesses, these shopkeepers who have been doing these businesses for more than ten years or even decades, if they suddenly let them change their livelihood, they may even be as good as a young shopkeeper, after all, it will be difficult to change the way of thinking when they are older.

But in this way, the shopkeeper will inevitably go to the Zhai family, and it will be easier for him to open his mouth when the time comes, although it is a win-win situation, it is not good for a daughter-in-law who has just entered the door to take the initiative to speak.

"That's a good idea, just talk to your mother, it's a win-win situation!" Situ You bowed his head slightly and said, "Grandmother, where is this singing again?" ”

Cheng Yiyao looked at Situ You and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What else, grandmother is in a hurry to hold her grandson and force her mother to take a concubine for you!" As he spoke, he glanced at Situ You.

"Isn't there still you?" Situ You raised his eyebrows and said.

Cheng Yiyao couldn't help blushing, and looked down at the account book to hide her embarrassment: "I'm not in the filial piety period, grandmother can't remember it now!" ”

Situ You said thoughtfully: "Is this so? ”

Cheng Yiyao also has no interest in continuing to talk, and now that Guan has just taken over the affairs of the house in recent years, I am afraid that he will be busy for a while.

"Mama Qiao from the young lady's sewing room came to report that the new clothes of all parties have been made this year, when will they be sent to each room?" Miao Ying came in and whispered.

Cheng Yiyao looked up from the ledger. After a while, he thought about it: "You let Mama Qiao in!" ”

Not long after, a middle-aged woman about forty years old walked in: "Slave and maid see the sixth young master, see the young lady, the young master and the young lady are auspicious!" ”

"Get up!" After calling up, Cheng Yiyao asked, "How many clothes have been made in each room this year?" "These Cheng Yiyao have all read it in the account book, but there are some questions that need to be confirmed with Mama Qiao.

"Back to the young lady, the old lady and the old lady each made eight sets of winter clothes. The old man and lady in each room made six sets of winter clothes. The aunt and lady also have six sets, the young masters and ladies are five sets of winter clothes, and the young masters and ladies are four sets. Several Young Master Sun and Miss Sun also have four sets, and the aunts in each room have made three sets each! Mama Qiao bowed and replied.

Zhai's work is really leaky, but he is also too cautious, to say that he has already broken up. Nowadays, all the money spent is the silver money of the second room, and it is understandable to prepare more for the second room. The Zhai family treats everyone equally, and it is naturally best to say that there is no separation of the family, but after all, it is still like this after the separation, which seems a little aggrieved.

However, the word filial piety is current. I'm afraid that no matter how much the second master doesn't like the old lady, he can't directly deal with her, this matter is not something she can mix, at least not what she can do now. Then he asked again: "Have you prepared all the winter clothes of the next person?" ”

"Back to the young lady, I have been doing it one after another a few days ago. After the master's clothes are confirmed to be fine, they will start to make them with all their might, but they have already been cut, and they should be completed in three or five days! Look, Mama bowed and replied.

"Nacheng, you will send someone to send these to each room today, and if there is any problem, report it in time!" Cheng Yiyao nodded.

After Mama Qiao left, Situ You, who had been listening quietly, said: "Grandmother favors the third room, and everything has to be for the third room, so my mother is a little angry, rather than only the three rooms are cheaper, if everyone is the same, then there will be nothing to say." ”

"But this has made the family's income and expenses tight, so why bother with this battle of will?" Cheng Yiyao was puzzled.

"You think everyone is as pragmatic as you are, and you see it that way?" Situ You shook his head and smiled, "Sometimes it's just a breath of fighting, what's the point?" But there are still people fighting, and living is to fight for this breath! ”

Cheng Yiyao was a little speechless: "In order to fight for a moment, I let myself suffer such a big loss, especially when the other party actually didn't fall at all, so what did you fight for?" ”

"Yes, I didn't get anything, but people who took advantage of everything still feel that they haven't taken advantage of anything!" I couldn't help but sneer as I spoke.

Cheng Yiyao was indifferent, maybe it was what kind of method to use for what kind of person, such a model of not hurting the enemy but only harming oneself has become the norm in the Situ family.

"If you really can't look at it and are annoyed, then give it to the fourth sister-in-law, no matter how you say it, the fourth brother is also the son of the father, and he is also the person in the second room, so the income and expenditure are barely equal, and whoever receives it is annoyed, and the mother has been dragging and refusing to let go!" Saying that, he sighed, and he also knew that the Zhai family was not for these properties, but he simply didn't want to give it to the fourth sister-in-law, not because the fourth brother was a concubine, but because his biological mother was Aunt Hui.

"How did you come up with the original dowry?" Cheng Yiyao was quite surprised.

Situ You was stunned by Cheng Yiyao's jumping thinking for a while, and then said with a smile: "These are the properties of the second house, my mother still has a dowry, I also have some of my own private property, and my father naturally has it, what's so strange about this!" ”

"You took out 10,000 taels of silver as a dowry, and grandmother agreed to do so?" Cheng Yiyao was a little incredulous, as far as she could seem, the old lady would not be happy to die these days.

"My father hid it from my grandmother, but I still made a big fuss afterwards!" Seeing that Situ You didn't want to say more, Cheng Yiyao didn't ask again, but after thinking about it, she also knew that the old lady would not compromise if she didn't take some benefits.

Although his dowry is also a lot, it is definitely worth 10,000 taels of silver, but these are all his own, and they will also be in the second room in the future, and they have nothing to do with the old lady, but it seems that the silver in the second room has nothing to do with the old lady now, and they are all separated.

I didn't think much about it and continued to look down at the account books, the income and expenditure of the entire house were complicated, and it was really a huge project to read these account books, and Cheng Yiyao didn't want to embarrass herself by candlelight at night, not to mention that people were tired, and it took her eyes.

It seems that I can't finish reading it in a few days, but these days I can be regarded as finding something to do, and I am surrounded by a pile of ledgers.

Yesterday, I took a cursory look at the situation of last month, and then I almost glanced at it. (To be continued) R580
