The population of the long house has always been much larger than that of the other two houses, and the glory of the year has long begun to decline, which is not as good as in the past, and the money has never been rich.

The third lady, Jiang, was jealous of the Song family because of money, but now she easily got the opportunity to take charge of the house, and she let go of her hand at once. The original resentment seems to have dissipated one by one in this amount of money that flowed like money.

By the time she sensed something was wrong and wanted to turn back, there was still no time.

In the early morning of this day, as in the past, Jiang sent someone up with the account book and flipped through it.

After only turning two pages, the two willow eyebrows on her face furrowed, and she turned the account book in her hand with a loud noise.

"This ...... What's going on? The more she flipped down, the more frightened she became, "Sister-in-law only has such a little silver in hand?" "Not to mention the pitiful few, it's clear that even the housekeeper is not enough!

Jiang Shi just got this errand, and the addiction is not over yet, so he is willing to hand over the position of housekeeper again.

In this way, she could not immediately go to the old lady to cry, so she could only continue to endure hard. Within a few days, Jiang Shi didn't know how much of his own body money was quietly subsidized.

However, Rao is she kept gritting her teeth and throwing money into it, and the days in this house are still about to make ends meet.

It happens to be close to the end of the year, and this time we will start to plan for the New Year, and all the things to be used for the New Year, which are the same and cannot be shoddy.

The mothers-in-law in charge of the house came to her one after another to buy this and that, and finally made the Jiang family unbearable.

And so on. She was afraid that she would even smash her jewelry head into it.

What's more, she gave birth to two daughters in her life, and the eldest daughter married into the Li family. disappeared with the Li family; The second daughter caused a big disaster, and it was easy to pick up a life, but I was afraid that I would have to spend my life in the nunnery. Really, she is just a lonely person, how can she not save money on hand?

Jiang went to see Meihuawu to see the old lady, and cried sadly and said that this family is now. She just couldn't take care of it anymore.

The old lady still thought she was playing tricks, and casually said a few perfunctory words, but she didn't care.

Jiang couldn't help but be anxious. Directly took out the account book and showed it to the old lady, seeing is believing.

"I don't know what has grown, so I asked you to take care of the house for a few days, and then I came to show my eyes!" The old lady was a little annoyed when she saw this. He reached out and took the account book to look at. While scolding Jiang's head.

Jiang lowered his eyes, not daring to argue, but in his heart, he had already blamed the eldest lady for all the faults.

The old lady didn't know what she was thinking, and when she saw her bow her head, she thought that she understood that she was wrong and was already reflecting, so she looked down at the account book.

A thick account book, but the old lady can read it quickly. The more I watched, the more frightened I became, until the end. With a blue face, he threw the account book out with a heavy hand, and said angrily: "A meal costs a hundred taels, but can you eat Cuiyu Baoer?" ”

Although the old lady has not been a housekeeper for many years, she also knows that on weekdays, a meal is only about 20 taels, which is enough for an ordinary farmer to live for a year.

Now it's good, a meal costs a hundred taels, and the money next to it is even more like water, flowing all over the ground.

Jiang Shi hurriedly said: "Mother, it is the middle of winter now, and I don't know how much it costs to burn those charcoal fires at home, and the silver is not used. ”

"So far, you're still stubborn. Every year in winter, every year to buy charcoal for heating, when was the house so embarrassed, and asked the wife of the head of the house to personally bring the account books to see me? The old lady had a cold face, "You don't know what I mean?" I've only been in charge of the house for a few days, which of the ones you are wearing is not new? I thought that you were in a bad mood a few days ago, and now it is easy to be happy, so I won't talk about you, who knows that you are good, there is no end yet! ”

"Even the sixth daughter-in-law's who doesn't take silver as silver has never been like you, so she has managed the house like this!" The old lady looked at Jiang Shi who was sitting at the bottom, and trembled with anger, "When you are young, don't say how your mother is, it's me, if you come to me, why don't I talk about it and teach you carefully?" You're good, so my old face has nowhere to put now! ”

Reprimanded, the old lady suddenly felt that the eldest lady Wang was too good, good was simply not like words, for so many years, the affairs of the house had been taken care of by her in an orderly manner, and the Jiang family was in such a situation today, and the eldest lady had not appeared once in decades.

The old lady was sorry in her heart, and scolded Jiang Shi for a few more words, and said angrily: "That's it, scolding you is just useless, and my efforts are in vain, and I don't bother to talk about you." ”

In the past few days, the snow has been heavy, and there has been snow four or five feet deep on the road, making it difficult for people to walk an inch, and the people sent by Xie Sanye to find Xie Yi don't even know where to start.

The old lady was distressed by this matter, but now when she saw that the Jiang family had not succeeded, her heart was like a fire, and after the reprimand, she lost her spirit.

She waved her hand and sent Jiang down: "Go and ask your eldest brother, take out a little bit of the silver on the shop Zhuangzi first, and give the New Year first." ”

Previously, Uncle Xie came to tell her that the business outside was sluggish and the situation was not good, and she also knew it, but now that the New Year is approaching, where there are more important things than the New Year, she naturally has to focus on this first.

Jiang Shi got the idea, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, retreated according to his words, and went to find Uncle Xie himself.

The old lady was full of decadence, leaned on the soft pillow and sighed, and sighed with emotion: This year is getting more and more difficult day by day.

She didn't know that the really difficult years were still to come.

In the evening of that day, Jiang's figure reappeared in the main room of Meihuawu.

This time, she knelt down for the old lady.

She shouted: "Mother, the daughter-in-law knows that she is wrong, the daughter-in-law should not take over the housekeeping affairs by herself, and the daughter-in-law is really helpless now." ”

The old lady was drinking tea, she was stunned when she heard the words, and the tea cup in her hand was poured, and the hot tea splashed her hand, making her cry "ouch".

Zhilan, the eldest girl who was waiting on the side, suddenly became confused, and stepped forward in a panic to help her clean her hands and clothes, clean up the broken porcelain on the ground, and did not forget to glance at Jiang Shi by the way.

But Jiang's eyesless will only shout in a daze, "Mother, are you okay, mother." I don't even know how to lift my hand.

Fortunately, although the tea was hot, the tea had been brewed for a while, and the old lady's hand was burned red. The skin did not break, and it was fine after rubbing the medicine.

The old lady's face was a little ugly, she covered her hands, sent Zhilan away, and then asked Jiang: "You have to have a degree of nonsense, what are you doing?" ”

Jiang Shi lay on her lap and occasionally came to Xie's house when she was a child. relied on her to play around, only this time with Zhang Huang on his face: "Mother, the shops at home have collapsed!" ”

"Nonsense!" The old lady was stunned. "Where did you hear that nonsense?"

Jiang Shi was depressed: "The eldest brother said it himself, how can it be fake?" ”

The old lady didn't believe it and her eyes widened.

The boss did tell her a few days ago that some of the turnover was not working. The situation is not very good. But why did it fall?

Although a family like them is an official, where can they have enough to eat with only a few masters' money? Daily expenses can be relied on outside the shop Zhuangzi.

"You go back first!" The old lady closed her eyes and looked tired, "These words must not be passed on!" ”

Jiang Shi wanted to speak and stopped, and had no choice but to get up and leave the plum blossom dock first.

It was getting dark. The old lady sat on the edge of the kang in a daze, and suddenly raised her voice to call Zhilan in. said: "Go, go and invite the uncle to me." ”

Zhilan left in response, and brought Uncle Xie with her after a short time.

Uncle Xie had already reached the halfway point and was about to come to see the old lady.

Because he came too quickly, the old lady suddenly knew that something was wrong, and her heart was uneasy, and she asked straight to the point, "What happened?" ”

Uncle Xie shook his head, there was a bit of black gas between his eyebrows, and he looked at it, "My son is useless......"

When the old lady heard this, she felt that her chest was tight, and she was about to lose her breath, so she struggled and asked: "When the shop falls, it falls, and the field Zhuangzi will not run away with long legs, and there is no output in winter, and when it comes to the next year, there will be a harvest as usual?" ”

If a road is blocked, there is naturally a side road to go.

What's more, Uncle Xie has been in charge of the Xie family's affairs for so many years, and there has never been such a disaster.

However, Uncle Xie's dozens of years old men and grandsons are all old, but they will cry bitterly: "Mother, my son is really useless...... The shop is down, there are still arrears to be repaid, although the fields on the village are there, but there is not even the silver money sown in the next spring, how can there be output? ”

I'm afraid that I will have to sell the outer house of the Grange to pay off the debt.

The old lady doesn't know how to farm, but she also knows the spring ploughing and autumn harvest, and this spring ploughing is nothing, so naturally there will be no autumn harvest.

Her eyes widened, and she stiffened a rich face: "You are not a hairy boy anymore, how can you still do things like this?" ”

"Someone must have cheated it!" Uncle Xie's well-maintained face turned red, "We have all the shops that sell everything, but this time, no matter what source of goods we enter, there are mistakes, and they are out of control, if it is not for someone to deliberately find fault, how can this be?" What's more, these channels for purchasing goods have not changed for many years, they are all acquaintances, but this time they are all out of stock, saying that they have been bought out, so that he can only send someone to find another place.

It's just that if you accidentally do this, it's all over......

When the old lady heard this, she immediately thought of Xie Shuning, "The Song family is a wealthy businessman, and Aman's little hooves also have the blood of the Song family on his body, which is the most treacherous!" This time, she and her cousin set you up! ”

Uncle Xie raised his head blankly: "A-Man is only a teenager this year, how can he use these methods?" ”

The old lady shouted: "It's because you are so careless that you end up today!" ”

The old woman's low rebuke in the plum blossom dock was endless for a long time, and in the three-room Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Turan was blinking and asking Xie Shuning with big eyes: "Miss, why did you cut off the financial road of the third room first?" (To be continued......)
