Today is the second day of the seventh month, and I went to each room to receive the degree. According to the rules of the Li Mansion, all expenses will be distributed on the second day of the first month of each month. According to the regulations, which room can be set up by itself, how many people are under it, living expenses, etc., are paid on a monthly basis. All the distribution of each room is arranged in the five-door account room, and the intimate subordinates of the owners of each room are standing outside the door of the five-door account room, waiting for the roll call of Mr. Ledger inside.

It was Li De who came to Yiyuan, and when he saw Qiu'er coming, he leaned over with a smiling face and said hello: "Sister Qiu'er, you are here." ”

Qiu'er glanced at him, and said with a cold face: "Who is your sister!" ”

Li De said with a hippie smile: "Why bother, Sister Qiu'er, my brother is looking for a son to beg the young lady and reward you to me, my brother will definitely let you eat and drink spicy food, and refuse to treat you badly." ”

Qiu'er frowned in disgust and muttered, "Shameless! Well, the scar forgot the pain! She knew that Li De was a leper dog, and he would come over every time he saw her. She had found the young lady to cry, and the young lady had also found the old lady to rectify him, but he still did not change his surname. Later, somehow, the old lady actually helped him speak, and she was angry. The last time Niu Ba beat him up, she was secretly happy in her heart for a long time. Hmph, wait for the second son to accept me in the future, and the old lady will be the first to open the knife!

Seeing Qiu'er's deflated look, Li De didn't know what thoughts were turning in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, sister Qiu'er, my brother won't say it, as long as you obey your brother in the future, my brother will definitely put you on his head." He saw Qiu'er followed by an old man and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Sister Qiu'er, who is he?" ”

This shameless guy has to take advantage every time, and today the sun is really coming out in the west. Seeing that the leper dog had changed the topic by himself, Qiu'er couldn't help but be a little surprised, and hurriedly replied, "This is Uncle Qian from our East Courtyard." ”

"Uncle Qian? What is he here for? "Why have I never heard of him, what is he doing here? Do you have to send someone to help you get such a little silver? Is there an adult male in the East Courtyard? Isn't there the eldest young lady who lives there, and didn't the men and subordinates all go to Beijing with the eldest son?

"What else can you do today?" Qiu'er didn't bother to tell that fool.

"You can just come to the East Courtyard with one person, how big it is, you need to come to two."

Qiu'er turned her face to the side, not bothering to pay attention to him.

Seeing that Qiu'er ignored him, Li De said to Uncle Qian behind him: "Uncle Qian, this is a trivial matter, Qiu'er alone is enough, you can go back." ”

"Li De, do you want to take care of it?" Qiu'er shouted. After all, it was a subordinate from the East Courtyard, and in order to show his rights, Qiu'er glared at Li De viciously.

Li De said: "I won't quarrel with you." When he saw that Mr. Bookkeeper had begun to roll call, he said, "All right, the distribution begins." Thinking of the things arranged by the second son, he was busy looking at the subordinates in the surrounding rooms, except for Uncle Qian in the East Courtyard, the rest were familiar faces. It's not that Niu Ba was enshrined as a son, he received a degree here last month, and Brother Yi said that this degree is still the same as the second son! What about his people? He lives in the East Courtyard, and there is only Uncle Qian with the face here? Could it be that Uncle Qian was sent by him?

He approached Uncle Qian with a smile and asked, "Uncle Qian, you and Qiu'er are only one person." The young lady's use, she can take it home alone. ”

Uncle Qian saw his smiling and harmless appearance of people and animals, he was already a cautious farmer, and hurriedly replied: "Qiu'er Xiaoniang is Qiu'er's mother's, and the old slave is the old slave's." ”

"Which room did you get?"

"My son-in-law's."

"I know it's your son-in-law? Your son-in-law? …… But Niu Ba? ”

"How can you call the old slave by his name?" Uncle Qian was in a hurry.

"Hehe, Niu Ba's kid, it's just the adopted son of Mrs. Xu, and I don't know what's wrong with the old lady, so I regard him as my son." Li De shouted, and the people around him also nodded in unison.

"Li De, what the old lady has to report to you?" Qiu'er said coquettishly.

As soon as Li De heard this, he wilted, and the hat was big.

"Yiyuan's." The bookkeeper shouted inside.

Li Dezheng didn't know how to respond under the gloating gaze of everyone, and when he heard the call, he hurriedly agreed, and went into the five-door account room.

After everyone had finished receiving it and left, a greeting sounded in the five-door account room: "East Courtyard Suishan".

Uncle Qian hurriedly went in and saw two bookkeepers sitting inside, one standing at the table and weighing the broken silver.

Seeing Uncle Qian come in, a thin and pale account room said: "The eighth prince of Suishan in the East Courtyard, one tael of silver and two hundred copper coins per month. ”

The account room that weighed the silver lifted a copper coin, counted two hundred wen, wrapped it in brown paper and handed it to Uncle Qian, and handed over one or two taels of silver. Uncle Qian took it, packed it in a cloth jacket, put it on his shoulder, and thanked a few bookkeepers for going out.

With so much money, Uncle Qian had never been in contact with it before. He clung to the cloth and headed back to the east courtyard. Qiu'er had already received the use and went back, so he had to go back to the East Courtyard alone.

"Hey, old money, old money!" As soon as I walked to the gate of the east courtyard, someone shouted behind me.

Uncle Qian looked back and saw Li De chasing after him, and there were a few people behind him, and there was a young man dressed as a son. He quickly stopped.

Waiting for a few people to come over, Li De pointed to the son-in-law and said, "Old Qian, this is our second son." ”

Lao Qian hurriedly said: "The old slave has seen the second son. "These two sons, I have heard of them. The Li Mansion is doing big business, the lord and the lord are divided into four directions, the lord is in charge of the north and south business, and the two sons are in charge of the southern half of the sky.

"Well, old money." The second son asked with a smile: "I heard Dezi say, your son-in-law is Niu Ba?" ”

"Back to the second son, the son of the old slave family is the eighth son."

"What eight sons, it's Niu Ba's boy." Li De shouted: "The eighth son, it's just that the old lady took him as a son on a whim." ”

"Old Qian, let me ask you, how much is this cow eight?" Li Xunzhou heard Li Yi say that the use of this Niu Ba is the same as his own, and he heard Li De say today that Niu Ba sent someone to receive the use, so he wanted to ask.

"Back to the second son, the old slave just received one or two silver and two hundred copper coins."

"Only one or two silver and two hundred copper coins?" Li Xunzhou couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Didn't you say that it was the same as me, why is there so much less?" ”

"Less?" Uncle Qian was stunned.

"Childe, how can Niu Ba compare with you." Li De hurriedly sent a sycophant.

Hearing Li De's words, the corners of Li Xunzhou's mouth couldn't help but smile, and after thinking about it, maybe there are fewer of them? Busy asked, "How many of you are there?" ”

"Back to the second son, there are a total of seven people in our yard."

"Seven people. Seven? Li Xunzhou put away the smile on his face and said, "That's a bit too much." Dezi, take the silver tael. ”

When Li De heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Uncle Qian's cloth jacket. Uncle Qian hurriedly guarded and said, "Second son, no, the old slave took it out of the account room, you can't take it." ”

Now the market price is 900 yuan for one stone of rice, and one stone of rice for seven ordinary people a month is just enough, but how is this enough? There are too many things to buy for the remaining oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and it costs money every day, and there are many things that need to be added to my yard, and the remaining two hundred dollars are far from enough.

"Bring it to me!" Li De kicked Uncle Qian in the chest and snatched the cloth jacket over......
