123. Hard Qi 1

"You said, this is almost the end of the year, it is inevitable that it will be another big expense, and you say all day long that you want to save money, but the province is saved, and you don't see where the saved silver is, the monthly silver in the sea of clouds is not much, and then you can support a large family, it will definitely not be rich, but this method of saving money has also been used a lot, but it just doesn't work." The old lady sat in the lobby with Tang Pozi in her arms, and as she spoke, her eyes swept over Ling Xueran, Ling Xiran, and Aunt Ruan.

"In fact, my granddaughter thinks that if she dismisses some maids and women who are useless in the house, and there are fewer people to eat, she should save a lot." Ling Xiran said softly, her eyes swept over the few maids standing next to her, intentionally or unintentionally, and those maids and maids all lowered their heads at once, as if they were afraid that they would be driven out of the house by Ling Xiran if they didn't let go.

"How's that going to work? Let's not talk about how many servants are needed in this Ling Mansion, let's just say that there are more than 10 in the old lady's room, even if the maids in the old lady's room can dismiss a few, what about the old lady's room? There is always something unfair, and in other words, this Ling Mansion has fed so many people up and down, if all of them are dismissed at once, how will you let the family live? If severance pay is given one by one, it will also be a sum of money. Aunt Ruan was the first to jump out and object, "Aunt Ruan, this is the most effective method." Ling Xiran tried her best to make her voice appear steady. Seeing that Aunt Ruan didn't squeak, Ling Xiran said again, "Is it possible, Aunt Ruan, you are a bodhisattva, look at these poor people, do you want to learn to help the world once?" I think you can sell those beaded hairpin jewelry of yours, and I guess you can exchange it for a lot of money. After Ling Xiran finished speaking, she was not surprised and dipped her nose with a handkerchief, Ling Xueran couldn't help but laugh, and the rest of the ladies present covered their mouths with a handkerchief to hide their own smiles.

"Xiran, my aunt's jewelry is not worth much, even if it is replaced, it won't be much money, I'm afraid it won't last for three months." Aunt Ruan's words just now were actually just to let the people in the house still believe in her and not be at the mercy of Ling Youran, but she didn't expect to be put on the table by Ling Xiran again, and now Aunt Ruan has a bit of a difficult taste to ride a tiger, "Is it?" It's more or less Aunt Ruan's heart, I don't think they mind, right? Ling Xiran looked up at those subordinates and asked, "I'll ask you again!" Ling Xiran was furious, and those maids and wives knelt down one after another, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes." The old lady hadn't seen this granddaughter get angry yet, and she was stunned for a while, Aunt Ruan had seen a lot after all, "Fifth Miss, what a big battle." Ling Xiran didn't feel embarrassed either, and said frankly, "Really? But no matter how big my battle is, where can I compare to you, aunt? "If those just now were insinuations, then now it is the irony of the red fruit and the fruit, the old lady can't see this the most, and she really scolded it.

"Look at you, as soon as you get together, you just quarrel and quarrel, there is simply no moment of peace, there is no way until now, the quarrel makes my brain hurt." After the old lady finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and pressed her head, "Yes, it's the daughter-in-law who is not good." "Aunt Ruan is in a hurry to admit her mistake just to show how virtuous she is," hum. Ling Xiran snorted coldly, Aunt Ruan is still just a noble concubine, no matter how Ling Xiran humiliates her, she only has to listen, and when she is corrected, when even Ling Youran in the house wants to call her "mother", forgive her Ling Xiran and not be able to get angry.
