Chapter 145: No Money? Ask Your Majesty to borrow!
After asking Qin Yong in detail, Wang Xingxin learned that in addition to the perfume produced in the mansion after he went out to quell the rebellion, almost all of the extra was used by Changsun Xiu to give away.
But Changsun Xiu is still the kind of person who responds to requests, and after the perfume is given away, her sisters are entrusted by her husband, father and brother to ask for spirits from Changsun Xiu.
In addition, it is now late autumn, and this ice cannot be sold, not only will the Earl's Mansion be cut off from its financial resources, but even the new military camp will run out of food if it is not for Li Er's assistance. Thanks to the bumper harvest in Guanzhong this year, this grain is not lacking, Liu Lao Er immediately bought several wineries that can make ordinary wine, and Qin Yong also expanded the distillation workshop in Fuzhong.
In addition, Liu Lao Er is very resolute in pushing distilled liquor to the market, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that it would be a problem for Wang Xingxin to eat in the Earl's Mansion now......
This is nothing, the main thing is that the eldest grandson Xiu is simply a boy who scatters wealth in the house, she rewards the people in the house today, and buys clothes and household utensils for the villagers tomorrow.
And since she became pregnant, she has unscrupulously invited her sisters, who are usually good, to have dinner in the house, which is actually to show that she is pregnant.
Today this sister sees her beads well, and tomorrow another sister sees that her bracelet is very chic, and Changsun Xiu, who doesn't know how to refuse, will take it off and give it away as long as others open their mouths. In this way, in less than four months, Sun Xiu completely ruined his originally not very rich family background......
"Qin Yong, how much silver is left in our mansion now?"
"Uncle, if it's not for the small one, it can be said that there is no penni in our mansion!"
"And how much do you have in your possession?"
"One hundred!"
Hearing Qin Yong say that there were only a hundred pieces left in the mansion, Wang Xingxin, who was still hidden by Qin Yong, jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"Damn, eldest grandson show! Lao Tzu counted to three, hurry up and roll over! ”
The eldest grandson Xiu, who was hiding behind the tree, saw that her husband was indeed angry, and slowly walked over with a small mouth and some fear, shook Wang Xingxin's arm and begged for mercy: "Husband, new brother, Xiu'er knows that it is wrong, you don't look at Xiu'er's young and ignorant sake, but also for the sake of the child in Xiu'er's belly, it's a big deal for Xiu'er to ask her father for money for you!" ”
Seeing that Changsun Xiu admitted his mistake and begged for mercy, Wang Xingxin looked at her not obvious belly and said softly: "Forget it this time, but in the future, all the property in the mansion will be handed over to Qin Yong, I don't agree that you don't want to take a penny, if I am not in the mansion, if Qin Yong does not allow it, you will not be able to take a penny!" ”
When Qin Yong heard this, he immediately said hurriedly: "Uncle, no, the small one is just a housekeeper, this treasury should be managed by Mrs., and if Uncle is not at home, it should be Mrs. who has the final say!" ”
Changsun Xiu secretly gave Qin Yong a thumbs up, and then looked at Wang Xingxin pitifully.
"Hey! If we hand over the treasury to this loser again, uncle, if I go on another expedition, I'm afraid our whole family will have to go to ask for food! It's okay now, there are only a hundred pieces left in our house, Xiu'er, what do you say! Don't ask your father for money again, even if Uncle Ben goes to the street to beg, he won't ask your eldest grandson for a penny! If you starve to death, you won't eat a grain of rice from your eldest grandson's family, and if you freeze to death, you won't take half an inch of cloth from your eldest grandson's family! ”
The eldest grandson Xiu saw that her husband was very resolute, and then thought about the dirty things her father and brother had done, and nodded and said: "Husband, Xiu'er really knows that she is wrong, and Xiu'er promises not to lose her family again in the future, and she only spends 100 guan a month, if it doesn't become 80 guan, it's okay." ”
"Xiu'er, you really know how to say, there are only a hundred pieces left in our house! But you really can't do this in the future, you have to think about our children, you have to leave him a family business, is it possible that you let our children not have enough food and clothing? ”
"Fortunately, it's almost winter, Qin Yong still remembers the greenhouse that Uncle Ben told you when he left, you take the silk and silk cloth rewarded by His Majesty for some silver money, and start to build the greenhouse, and in winter, there will be no shortage of money in our house."
Qin Yong looked at Changsun Xiu, who was constantly waving at him, and said helplessly: "Uncle, the silk and silk cloth in the house have been given to the people in the village by Mrs. ”
Seeing that Wang Xingxin was about to get angry again, Changsun Xiu hurriedly said: "Husband, you said that the people in this village are your relatives, and the concubine can't always look at our mansion and even the subordinates are wearing good clothes, and your relatives are still wearing coarse linen clothes!" ”
Wang Xingxin, who was distressed and hurt with eggs, looked at Changsun Xiu and said helplessly: "Forget it, Lao Tzu will go to His Majesty tomorrow to borrow money!" Xiu'er is raising the baby at home, and she has to go back to the barracks for her husband, Uncle Qin has something to do with me. ”
"Qin Yong, let Sijiao serve Mrs. well, then the greenhouse will wait for me to get the money!"
"Uncle, that kind of translucent silk cloth was not given away by Mrs. Taitho, and there is no shortage of manpower in our house, and the rest is only used with some bamboo poles and other things, which does not cost much silver, and a hundred is enough."
"Alright, you can start doing it now."
......
After chattering for more than an hour, under the apologetic gaze of Changsun Xiu, Wang Xingxin got on the horse again to find Qin Qiong.
After arriving at the new barracks, Wang Xingxin saw that in addition to the large school field and barracks, the original regiment headquarters had been demolished, and there was a big tent on the original site.
Wang Xingxin saw Qin Qiong's personal soldiers standing outside the big tent, so he stepped forward and said, "Go and inform Uncle Qin, just say that Uncle Ben wants to see him." ”
"Ming Shen, have you finished handling things at home?"
"Uncle, why didn't you tell the little nephew earlier, the little nephew's meeting at home is really a mixture of joy and sorrow."
"Haha, it's just a few possessions, isn't it as good as the heirs you will have?"
"Uncle, how can I raise a child if I don't have money, this nephew is worried, tomorrow morning to see if I can borrow some from Your Majesty."
Qin Qiong saw that he was a little sad and said with a smile: "Xiu'er is a little too much, and she will not be in charge of the house, let your aunt come to your house tomorrow to teach her more, don't talk about this matter for the time being, Uncle does have something to tell you when he called you today." ”
Wang Xingxin had long expected that if there was no important matter, Qin Qiong would not let him return to the barracks within three hours.
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
"Ming Shen, although you did a good job in quelling the rebellion this time, and that thunderbolt deserves more attention from Your Majesty, it's just that you shouldn't have blown up Wang Gui's illegitimate son to the ground! And the captured barbarian Wang Nong Jiangyi, I don't know how you humiliated him, now not only Wang Gui is unforgiving to you, even some ministers in the court think you are too cruel and cruel, the old man wants to sit in this military camp, tomorrow morning the court can't participate, and your Uncle Cheng hasn't come back, I'm afraid you won't be able to deal with it tomorrow!"
Hearing that Qin Qiong would not participate in the early dynasty tomorrow, Wang Xingxin was puzzled: "Could it be that Your Majesty has any plans?" Why didn't you let Uncle participate in the Early Dynasty? ”
"It's not that Your Majesty doesn't let the old man participate in the early dynasty, it's just that some envoys from neighboring countries have gathered in Chang'an recently, and I don't know how those envoys learned that my Tang Dynasty has a thunderbolt, a sharp weapon for the town and country, and His Majesty and the old man are a little uneasy, so the old man is here and can't leave."
As soon as Wang Xingxin heard this, he put his mind at ease and said to Qin Qiong: "Uncle Qin, don't worry, Uncle Cheng explained something to the little nephew when he left, and the little nephew will definitely be able to deal with it tomorrow morning, the little nephew is no longer the former Wang Mingshen, and now the little nephew is a Tang Lantian county uncle with military merits!" It's a person who wants to be a father. ”
Hearing Wang Xingxin say this, Qin Qiong nodded and said: "Don't be careless, deal with it carefully, you must pay attention when you speak in the court, you can't be caught by those officials and imperial history, especially those ministers from families." ”
"Uncle, although the little nephew doesn't have the ability to mess around like Uncle Cheng, it's almost a big deal to cheat, it's hard for them to want to kill the little nephew in court."
Seeing that Qin Qiong was still a little worried: "Uncle, just put your heart in your stomach, the little nephew has not officially become a father yet, he will definitely not mess around, besides, the position of this earl is too small, the little nephew doesn't want the child to be a little uncle as soon as he is born, at least he has to be a little marquis!" ”
Qin Qiong didn't say anything more when he saw that he was sure in his heart, but just asked him some things he had seen in Manzhou, and when Qin Qiong heard that Wang Xingxin used Liu Lao'er to treat him and train Nong Jiang to be righteous, he laughed.
A personal soldier outside the account heard Qin Qiong's hearty laughter and whispered: "The general hasn't seen a smiling face for many days, this Lantian Uncle made the general laugh happily as soon as he came, it seems that the general really likes this uncle in his heart......"
"Ming Shen, if you are tight at home, after you disperse tomorrow, just go to the house and ask your aunt to withdraw it, and ask Your Majesty to borrow money and lose it."
"Uncle, why can't you ask Your Majesty, Your Majesty can't watch his courtiers can't eat, besides, the little nephew is a big victory, if it weren't for the little nephew who made the trebuchet to attack the city with a thunderbolt, my Tang soldiers don't know how many dead and wounded, Your Majesty has to express it."
"After the court disperses tomorrow, the little nephew will pretend to be pitiful, if His Majesty does not borrow money, I will rely on the palace and not leave!"
"Ming Shen, in addition to Your Majesty, the crown prince and some underage princes who are not leaving the palace, there are only eunuchs left, do you think that you will have an heir and want to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty?"
