Tanchun glanced at Shi Xiangyun quickly, and then said slowly: "The second sister is indeed very good, and she can take care of people." But the second sister is too busy, and she can't spend more time at home than she does in the palace. He was busy with the rituals and didn't have much time to walk around with us. Sister Bao is our wife's niece and daughter, and she is my cousin, and there are some things that it is easier for me to talk to Sister Bao. ”
Shi Xiangyun pointed at Jia Qian and Jia Qing and said, "Then why don't you talk to the two of them?" Aren't they in charge of the affairs of this house? ”
A hint of humiliation appeared in Tanchun's eyes.
He is Jia's mother's own granddaughter, but he is just a maidservant daughter, only a little higher than the girl's status, and not even as decent as the attacker. In contrast, Jia Qian and Jia Qing, two adopted girls, because of Jia Yu and Jia Jiu's intentions, now one is a county monarch and the other is a township monarch, both of them are noble girls, both of them have phoenix crowns and xiaxia, and both of them have Huangzhuang and Yulu. These two girls, who didn't care about Tanchun at all, have arrived at the place where Tanchun must look up, how can Tanchun be convinced?
Take Jia Jiu and Jia Qian's exchange of identities as an example, Tanchun knows very well in his heart that Jia Jiu will not exchange identities with him, firstly because he is young, and secondly because of Mrs. Jia Zhengwang. But it can be seen that Jia Qian is just covering up for Jia Jiu, not only did he get a reward, but even his sister got the blue eyes in the palace, and she rose with the tide.
Where is Tanchun's heart not sour?
But he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't do anything. I can only keep all the qiē in my heart.
Who knows the thoughts of Tanchun?
It's just that Tanchun can't even offend either Jia Qian and Jia Qing now.
I only heard Tan Chun say: "Sister Yun, where are you talking." We've only been moving into the back garden for a few days? We used to live in the old lady's house. It's that the Qian girl and the Qing girl have a heart, and as juniors, they can't reach out to the old lady's house. Sister Bao helped me, that was our cousin's private correspondence, if Qian'er and Qing'er made a move, it would be because they interfered with the old lady's upbringing of her grandchildren. How is this the same? ”
In fact, the more important reason is that Jia Qian and Jia Qing are Jia Yu's nominal granddaughter. was also entrusted by Jia Yu and Jia Jiu to take care of things in the back garden. But Tanchun is Jia Zheng's daughter, and she was raised in Jia's mother's house. No matter how many reasons there are. Tanchun didn't have the face to bother Jia Qian and Jia Qing.
It was Jia Qing, hearing this, who also smiled: "Now that the third aunt and Aunt Yun have also entered the back garden, it is naturally different from the past." In the future, if there is something to do with Aunt Yun and Aunt Yun. It's the same with us opening our mouths. As long as it's within our power. We will do our best. ”
"Is it just within your reach?" Shi Xiangyun muttered, and said, "There is one thing I have always wanted to know, since we have entered this back garden, where did this example come from?" ”
Jia Qian smiled softly and said, "In the past, when Aunt Yun lived in the old lady's house, she walked from the old lady's house, and the third aunt always walked from the old lady's house. But my aunt also said that our family is not short of clothes and jewelry. Now that Aunt Yun has also returned, the third aunt can't be left behind. It's just that the old things are unforgettable, even if I take care of the second uncle, it's not good to go directly from our family's account. Therefore, whether it is Aunt Yun or the third aunt, the share of the two of them is nominally taken from the aunt's account. ”
Shi Xiangyun was speechless: "The second sister is so generous. I, the third sister, and Sister Xing, although on the surface, the second sister is just giving us some monthly money, but food, clothes, and jewelry, all add up, which is not a small amount. In contrast, monthly money and fat powder money are a fraction at all. ”
Shi Xiangyun didn't understand these things, because Jia Mu didn't teach him, and the people around him never told him these things. But the day after living in the back garden, Jia Jiu sent all the monthly money for the month. You know, it was the middle of the month, and when Shi Xiangyun was in Jia's mother's house, he had already received the monthly money. But Jia Jiu still sent them the monthly money and fat powder silver according to the number of a whole month.
In the past two days, Shi Xiangyun has been in charge of the account books in his house, even if he is still confused about the price of goods or something, thinking that an egg will cost 100 yuan, but he also has an intuitive understanding of his daily expenses.
Not to mention anything else, at least he knew that when he was in Jia's mother's yard, he only had two taels of silver a month, but in the back garden, he also had more fat powder money.
It's a pretty straightforward comparison.
Thinking of the money he got in the past few days, Shi Xiangyun couldn't help but ask: "How rich is the second sister, and can she afford the expenses of me and the third sister?" ”
Jia Qian and Jia Qing glanced at each other and replied, "Aunt Yun has forgotten it?" Aunt or aunt, we all have Huangzhuang in our hands, my aunt not only eats double food, but even Huangzhuang is also double, in addition to the extra given to my aunt by Long Live that year. These imperial villages, the court has special people to take care of, we don't have to bother, the scale is not small, any one, there are tens of thousands of silver a year. My aunt also said that as long as he was at home for a day, he would take some money out, and the sisters would have fun together. ”
Shi Xiangyun lowered his head and did not speak.
Xue Baoqin's heart moved, and said: "I heard that the title is different, and the scale of the Huangzhuang is also different, and this entry is naturally different. Long live the extra gift to the second sister Zhuangzi back then? When was that? ”
Jia Qian replied: "That was six years ago, when my aunt was first entitled. That Zhuangzi is indeed smaller. In the old years, my aunt discussed with the grandmothers, and called the people from Zhuangzi again, but I didn't know what she ordered, and the Zhuangzi's income suddenly doubled. ”
Shi Xiangyun said: "The second sister is amazing. After a pause, he said, "The second sister is the second sister in the end, and she is different from the sisters." Originally, the clothes and jewelry were the upper parts, and the expenses were from this house, these three Zhuangzi, one counted him as 10,000 taels, and the three were 30,000 taels. I heard that the prince's income in a year is only that. ”
Jia Qian and Jia Qing looked at each other. I don't know how to answer.
Girls who are not married to them are inconvenient to meddle in these things, and they are the last resort at home. Leaving things in their hands must also be covered up and carried out in the name of upbringing. It would be rude to discuss these things openly. That is, Jia Mu's place, the rules are loose, and Jia Qian and Jia Qing don't want to see Jia Jiu pay, but they can't even get a word of thanks. So I said a few more words.
Jia Qian and Jia Qing sisters never expected that Shi Xiangyun would say such a thing regardless of it.
Indeed, even the son of the emperor. After being crowned the prince, the income on the bright side was only 10,000 taels of silver a year. Of course, if you count those gray incomes. Or some other income. The less than 350,000 a year, and the more than 100,000, depends on each person's ability and connections.
It's just that this kind of thing is not what a boudoir girl like them should say.
Mrs. Wang, who was on the side, also moved in her heart when she heard this.
He is short of money, and he loves money even more. No matter how much money is piled up in front of him, he will not feel enough.
Since she knew that the Xue family had earned millions of taels of silver with the stones given by Jia Jiu, Mrs. Wang's heart was like a cat scratching. Mrs. Wang thinks about how to get the money out of the Xue family's hands every day. Every night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, thinking about how to pick up some more money.
Mrs. Wang has been focusing on the Xue family and Xue Baochai. But he forgot that there was a big rich man by his side. The annual income is 30,000 taels of silver.
Mrs. Wang wanted to speak by herself, but she knew that if she spoke, she would definitely arouse Jia's mother's disgust, so she could only give Tanchun a look.
Tanchun couldn't, was silent for a while, and said, "I remember that the Daomen will also send a sample every month. Does Daomen also have an industry for the second sister? ”
Jia Qian and Jia Qing were silent for a while, and then Jia Qian said, "I'm not from the Daomen, so naturally I don't know." However, many of the things sent by the Daomen cannot be measured in terms of money. For example, the second sister's piano and sword scores, as well as daily incense, rouge gouache and so on, many of which cannot be estimated with money. As for the industry mentioned by the third aunt, now the Daomen Jinyi Daozi lineage is respected by the aunt, and the resources of the Jinyi Daozi lineage are all mobilized by the aunt. This is also the reason why my aunt asked for stones, and Daomen sent so many imitation Taihu stones. These stones turned out to be the property of the Jinyi Daozi lineage. My aunt moved when she moved, but if the number was too large, someone in the upper echelons of the Dao Gate would ask. The industrial input of Daomen is naturally returned to Daomen. As long as it is not too excessive, as long as the aunt is still the leader of the Jinyi Daozi lineage, the Daomen will naturally not treat the aunt badly. ”
Xue Baoqin was even more amazed when he heard it.
Jia Baoyu was the most impatient with these things, and said: "What Confucianism and Taoism are all deceptive things. ”
Jia Qing smiled: "Second Uncle Bao is here again." ”
Jia Baoyu pouted and said: "The innocent daughter's family is full of economy, and it is not vulgar, which makes people upset. ”
Jia Qing replied: "Then according to what Second Uncle Yibao said, you don't have to eat and wear clothes?" These were also bought with money, or obtained through guò business, but they did not fall from the sky. ”
Jia Baoyu replied: "My food and clothing are not. ”
Jia Qing replied: "But it is an accessory to the title that the ancestors of the Jia family exchanged for blood. Second Uncle Bao, I know you don't like these topics, but please be cautious. When you speak, please also think more about your ancestors on the bloody battlefield. If the two ancestors didn't fight with their lives, we still don't know which mountain to dig into. If you don't have two ancestors, I'm afraid you're also worried about what to eat tomorrow? Where did all that stuff come from to spoil you? ”
Jia Qing looks down on people like Jia Baoyu the most.
Eating the old Rong Guogong, wearing the old Rong Guogong, and living in the old Rong Guogong, but turned his face and put the old Rong Guogong into the Lu beetle. picked up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and scolded his mother, talking about people like Jia Baoyu. And Jia Baoyu was even more excessive, others still waited for the bowl to be put down before they started to scold, he was holding the bowl in his hand and began to scold.
Jia Qing felt that whether Jia Baoyu really didn't understand or fakely didn't understand, there were some things that he really shouldn't say. He can ask his elders for advice in private, but he doesn't ask his elders for advice, but he preaches this kind of theory here, that is, there is a problem with his character.
Jia Qing didn't think that with Jia Baoyu's intelligence, he wouldn't know what he was talking about at all.
Jia Baoyu's face flushed, but Shi Xiangyun clapped his hands and smiled: "Yes!" Baoyu, I'll just say that you don't like what you say, and tell you not to say it, and you don't listen to me every time. Now, you can be regarded as a lesson, right? ”
Jia Baoyu's face turned red, and he suddenly stood up and gave Jia Qing a look, so panicked that Jia Qing hurriedly stood up.
"Second Uncle Bao, what are you doing? It tormented me. ”
Jia Qing is not the little girl from the countryside at the beginning. If he hadn't been in front of Mother Jia, he might have received this gift alive. But after Mama's teaching, he knew that some things, even if they are pretending, they can't just pretend in front of people, even in the back of people, they must also be held and observed.
Jia Baoyu said: "In the past, no one taught me, and I could say whatever I wanted by my own temperament. Now that I heard this, I realized that I was wrong. Okay Qing'er, can you forgive me? ”
Jia Qing hurriedly said, "What did Second Uncle Bao say?" Where can my niece and nephew deserve this gift from you? If you want me to say, in the past, whether it was the old lady, the third aunt, Aunt Yun, or Aunt Bao, they all mentioned Second Uncle Bao more than once, but the elders said it implicitly and tactfully, and Second Uncle Bao relied on the favor of the old lady, so he never took it to heart. Now, I'm just repeating the same old tune, where can I afford this ceremony? ”
Jia Baoyu was stunned.
Mother Jia beckoned to Jia Baoyu, let Jia Baoyu go over, hugged him in her arms, and said, "How many times did the old lady say it in the past, and you listened to it?" I also need a junior to remind you. ”
Jia Qing got up and said with a smile: "Look at what the old lady said, Second Uncle Bao was a child in the past, so everything is casual, and there are people who have no intentions." Now that Second Uncle Bao is getting older, he is naturally sensible. The great-granddaughter's daughter was just a coincidence that let Uncle Bao listen to it. ”
Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang both laughed when they heard this.
Mrs. Wang said, "You kid, be careful. ”
Aunt Xue watched from the side for a long time, and finally said: "When I first met their sisters that day, these two children were really not brilliant. Now that she is older, she has been carefully educated in the house, and sure enough, the eighteen changes of the female college are completely different from before. It's a bit like a second girl. ”
Jia's mother said: "These two children were carefully raised by the second girl, and they are naturally like the second girl." (To be continued......)
