Returned to the commander, well, now it is called the Dingguo General's Mansion, and as soon as I entered the inner courtyard, I saw that the courtyard was full of lights. Ling'er and Manyao's dowry maid Qiao'er are directing their servants to be busy. Although there were still snowflakes in the sky, many people were busy and sweating.

"Big Niu, you put this lantern higher, eh, you're stupid, you can't even put a lantern!"

"Erya, you go back to the warehouse and get some red ribbons out."

"Mother Chen, the paste is running out, hurry up to the kitchen and tell me to cook some more."

"The table is here, let me let go, eh, it turned out to be the master, the little one has seen the master!"

Looking at the people busy in the yard, Pang Gang felt a sense of impending joy, a feeling that he could not feel in the future life. In Pang Gang's later life, the smell of the New Year is getting weaker and weaker, many young people are keen on what Christmas Eve Christmas is more than their own New Year, for people in the future generations of the New Year is no different from peace, at best, it is to be able to watch a TV called the Spring Festival Gala when eating, which is like now, as if everyone is busy for a day, although in Pang Gang's opinion is still a little unaccustomed, but this feeling is really good.

Finally avoided the people who were full of people and came to their own yard, only then did they feel that there were fewer people, and pushed open the courtyard door, and inside was a newly built big house. The house is divided into two floors, covering a large area of more than 300 square meters.

It is also Pang Gang's idea to build this house, if it is according to the current custom, a big family like Pang Gang, his three wives and two concubines will each have a yard of reading, but Pang Gang, the male host, does not have his own exclusive yard, and he will spend the night in whose yard he wants to pamper at night.

However, Pang Gang, who has always been easy-going in family affairs, expressed strong dissatisfaction with this approach, and at his strong request, the Dingguo General's Mansion built this large house in the inner courtyard as quickly as possible, the first floor of this house is used for reception, dining and office places, and the second floor is the resting place of Pang Gang and several wives.

After Pang Gang made such a decision, although he was opposed by Ruolan and Manyao and others at first, in their opinion, this is simply a mess, how can there be a reason for a husband to live in one house with several wives and concubines, isn't this a mess? But under Pang Gang's enforcement, the women finally had to live aggrievedly, but after living for a while, the women also began to like such a house, not to mention that it is indeed very warm for other families to live together, and it is also convenient for Pang Gang to do bad things, saving him from running around.

But because of this, this house is also a very ** place, except for Pang Gang's family, that is, some maids in the inner courtyard can enter and exit, what about others? Ahem

patting the snowflakes on his body, Pang just walked into the hall on the first floor, and saw Ruolan and Manyao sitting at the table busily counting something, while Xuezhu and Chen Yuanyuan were helping on the side, and there were a bunch of account books in front of them.

As soon as Pang Gang entered the room, he felt a strong warmth, took off his coat and put it on the chair beside him, and asked with a smile: "Ruolan, Manyao, what are you busy with?" ”

Chen Yuanyuan, who was sorting out the account books, raised his head and smiled sweetly at her husband: "Husband, Sister Lan is teaching Sister Xuezhu to settle accounts with the concubine." ”

"Reckoning?" Pang Gang asked puzzledly: "Isn't there a bookkeeper in the house?" Why do you still need to do the math yourself? ”

After listening to Pang Gang's words, Ruolan and Manyao, who were originally struggling with their heads, both raised their heads and glanced at Pang Gang in unison.

"What? Am I not right? Pang Gang touched his head strangely.

"Yes, the eldest master of our family is right about everything!" Manyao glared at her husband with disgust, and then said: "Although there is an account room in the house, we can't ignore anything, we have such a big family, if we push everything to the people below, wait for the next person to report, and don't care about anything, then you just wait to be killed." Besides, Ming'er is the Chinese New Year's Eve, we still have to sort out the account books before noon, so that we can divide the dividends of the next people and the major workshops and mines, the concubine and Ruolan sister are about to die, you are still there to coax. ”

"Uh, look at me." Pang Gang said embarrassedly: "I forgot about my husband for a while, the ladies have worked hard." After speaking, Pang Gang really bowed to the women.

"Flutter!" Seeing her husband's funny appearance, all the women laughed.

Li Xuezhu put down the account book in her hand and ran over lightly, hugged Pang Gang's arm and said coquettishly, "Husband, no one can calculate the account book, but Sister Ruolan and Sister Manyao have to settle with Yuanyuan, and now they have a headache, can you talk to the two sisters, let me go and help Ling'er Qiao'er, anyway, I can't help if I stay here, what do you say." ”

Looking at Xuezhu's snow-white pretty face and round pretty eyes, feeling the softness and size of his arms, Pang Gang was about to agree, but his heart immediately moved and shook his head and said: "No, I said that everything at home is arranged by you Sister Ruolan and Sister Manyao, and I can't go back on my word." ”

"If you don't want to be a husband, people won't settle accounts at all." Ruolan hugged her husband's arm and continued to shake, and the great twin peaks shook so that Pang Gang was dizzy for a while.

"Look at you, your little mouth can afford to have an oil bottle." Pang just smiled and gently hung on her upturned Qiong nose, and asked helplessly: "Say, is there another trouble today?" ”

"No, the concubine body is just just" Speaking of this, Li Xuezhu's pretty face turned red.

"I didn't break into anything, I just made a mess of the inner courtyard that Ling'er and Qiao'er had worked hard for several hours to arrange." At this time, Ruolan, who had been settling accounts and not speaking, exposed Xuezhu's old bottom.

"Oh yes?" Pang Gang stretched out his voice and looked at Xuezhu with a smile.

"Eh, Sister Ruolan, you're the worst, people are just careless." Seeing Xuezhu anxiously pacing the jade foot, Pang Gang missed the Xuezhu slightly and did it. Among Pang Gang's many wives and concubines, Xuezhu is the youngest, and her surname is a little rude when she is less than sixteen years old, but after getting along for a long time, you will find that she is actually very innocent and romantic, plus she has a cute look of childish face and huge * breasts, and Pang Gang and the girls cherish her very much.

"Okay Xuezhu, let Xianggong see if you're right." Pang Gang pulled over an account book in front of Xuezhu and looked at it, but soon Pang Gang was dizzy by the one or two three wanton in the account book, and he couldn't stand it, so he picked up a quill and re-counted the accounts in the account book.

Although Pang Gang didn't study accounting before, he still knows some of the most basic double-entry bookkeeping. He took a quill pen and quickly counted the account books with Arabic numerals, and then asked triumphantly: "How is it, you are very good, right?" ”

After Pang Gang finished writing, Li Xuezhu, who was honestly attached to Pang Gang's arms, secretly glanced at him and protested: "Xianggong, what kind of word is this, it looks ugly like a ghost drawing." ”

Holding his beloved wife's slender waist, Pang Gang explained with a smile: "This is not a ghost drawing, this is an Arabic numerals, which are very convenient and fast to count, and Xianggong will teach you." ”

"Hmm!" The well-behaved Li Xuezhu nodded slightly, and the two of them used a quill pen to draw on a blank paper and started from 1234.

Li Xuezhu is very smart, and he learned the number from 0 to 9 in a while, and when the two of them wrote energetically, Kong Ruolan on the side came over, and after seeing the Arabic numerals written by Pang Gang, Dai frowned slightly and asked: "Where did Xianggong learn these things, it seems to be very convenient." ”

Pang Gang smiled: "It's nothing, this is a little thing that my husband has learned before, if you want to learn from Xianggong and then teach you, now let's finish these account books first." ”

With the efforts of several people, the five husband and wife finally settled the account books of this brigade when it was almost noon.

"Whew, it's finally over"

Kong Ruolan stretched her waist for a long time: "Xianggong, the account books are finished, this year we have earned a total of 4,687,549 taels of silver, and after deducting the 1,980,000 Wu Qian 400 taels of silver, we still have 2,700,02,149 taels of silver left." ”

"Hehe, yes, our family is also rich." After listening to his daughter-in-law's report, Pang Gang laughed, and his mood was very good.

"What's the matter, we've earned so much money after a year of busy work, but we can't help the flower that Xianggong is so casual." Ruolan has a lot of opinions about Pang Gang's flowing silver, especially the one million taels of silver he casually gave to the imperial court, which made her feel distressed.

At this time, the manyao on the side persuaded on the side, "Sister Ruolan, all the flowers should be spent, those are all serious things, and they can't be saved." ”

Kong Ruolan's pretty face flushed slightly and said, "Sister Manyao, these little sisters know that our family has a big business, and the little sister who should spend the money will not feel distressed, but like last time, I gave the court a million taels of silver, which we earned with great difficulty, and we can't help spending it so much if we have any money." ”

"Hehe, it seems that Sister Ruolan is distressed about the one million taels of silver that the prime minister gave to the imperial court." Wei Manyao Jiao laughed, "But Xianggong is also for our good, if it weren't for so much silver, Xianggong could become the governor of Nanjing, the general of Dingguo?" Sister, we can't be extravagant, but we can't sit on that miser, right? ”

Ruolan Hao Ran smiled: "What Sister Manyao said is that the little sister is not thoughtful enough. ”

Pang Gang nodded again and again from the side, Ruolan in his family is good at financial management, but Manyao is good at officialdom, and the two of them are indeed their own virtuous helpers.
