After dinner, Zhou Shuren took his son to the study, and by the way checked the progress of his grandchildren, these days are too busy, he rarely goes home, and he neglects a lot of children.

Zhulan went back to the house, took out the box containing the silver tickets, there were not many silver tickets in the box, took them out and counted, counting the broken silver, there were less than seven hundred taels left, and at once took out five hundred taels, leaving less than two hundred taels, and I didn't feel that the silver was not enough to spend for a long time.

Recently, I have spent a lot in the capital, and Zhou Shuren has doubled his monthly money when he was promoted, so he is a little tight.

Although the guests received a lot of gifts, they were all items, and they could not be used as silver, and this bit of silver was really not enough to reach the autumn harvest, and the cost of the capital was too great.

When Zhou Shuren came back, he saw the silver ticket on the table, and only took four hundred taels of silver tickets, "The silver I gave me last time has not had a chance to be used, four hundred taels is enough." ”

Zhulan, "You can put it all up, I didn't have a chance before, it was the household department that was busy, and the household department will be relaxed in a few days, and the treat is certain." ”

"I don't have much money at home!"

Zhulan, "Don't worry about your family, I'll let Steward Ding go to the fishing ground tomorrow, and some of the fish in the ice cellar will be disposed of, and the silver will be there." ”

Zhou Shuren, "Deal with it in advance!" ”

"Yes, I originally wanted to wait until the end of the year to deal with it, and sell it at a good price during the New Year, but now the family needs silver."

Zhou Shuren put the silver ticket in his purse, "It's a pity to deal with it in advance." ”

Zhulan also felt pain, "Now that the fish price is cheap, I have lost a lot of silver!" ”

Zhou Shuren took off his coat and said, "I don't use this money." ”

"It's a big deal, without your money, the family's silver would have bottomed out a long time ago."

Zhou Shuren saw Mrs. Song and the girl come in, and said faintly: "People are old, staying up late is a little slow, this hard work is difficult to make up, fortunately, I finally survived, and I can sleep more steadily in the future." ”

Zhulan covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and looked at the maid, this person sold miserably, "I haven't seen the master in the past few days, why do you think the master's hair is much whiter?" ”

After a pause, he instructed Mrs. Song, "Boil black rice porridge tomorrow morning." ”

Mrs. Song, "Yes." ”

Zhou Shuren washed his hands, "I also lost a lot of hair!" ”

Zhulan was distressed, "Then I have to make up for it, how can I look at it, the old man seems to have lost weight." ”

Zhou Shuren, "....... Well. ”

Mrs. Song and the girl went down, Zhulan stopped acting, and when the footsteps of others went away, Zhulan lowered her voice, "Do you want to sell miserably and get a reward?" ”

Zhou Shuren took off his shoes and said: "Well, don't have too much hope, it's all up to the emperor, but I don't think there is much hope, the officials of the household department are meritorious, and the probability of rewarding me alone is too low, even if I think of a good way, but I serve in the household department, these are what I should do." ”

Zhulan pulled the pillow, "I don't have any hope, it's okay if you sell miserably, so as not to be beaten with iron for you." ”

These days, she can see her husband's exhaustion, and she is distressed.

Zhou Shuren lay down, "It's still comfortable at home." ”

Zhulan went down to the ground and blew out the candles, "Then have a good rest." ”

Zhou Shuren fell asleep soon, he was not down-to-earth in the household department, he didn't have a daughter-in-law by his side, he was thinking too much about things, and he hadn't rested much.

The next day, as soon as Zhou Shuren arrived at the household department, the household department lined up, and it could be seen that the people in line were all businessmen, and the rewards of the Xu family stimulated the merchants.

Zhou Shuren entered the household department, and the office in the courtyard had already begun.

After waiting for a while, the ministries came to send the donated silver, although it was not as good as the merchants, this was also a lot of silver, not counting the emperor's 100,000 taels, the prince gave 10,000 taels, several princes 5,000 taels, and the princes and princes did not exceed the prince.

Xiao Qing felt that this was the happiest day since he became the head of the household department.

In the afternoon, the silver donated by each merchant was less, some of these people were small merchants, and some felt that most of them had donated, and they were embarrassed to donate some if they didn't donate.

Zhou Shuren counted the amount, "Lord Shangshu, this is the amount donated in the morning." ”

Xiao Qing took it and looked at it, "One hundred and sixty-five thousand taels of silver, this is only the silver taels in the morning." ”

Zhou Shuren, "Yes." ”

Counting the Xu family's silver, more than two million taels, this is a large amount.

After Xiao Qing was excited, "This amount can't be known to outsiders, otherwise, there will be more reasons to ask for silver." ”

Zhou Shuren got up, "My lord, the lower official will go back first." ”

"Okay."

As soon as Zhou Shuren came out of the door, he saw Father-in-law Liu, "Why did Father-in-law come to the household department?" ”

Gonggong Liu said politely: "The miscellaneous family is here to pass on the emperor's message." ”

Zhou Shuren heard it, "Father-in-law, please, Lord Shangshu is here." ”

Gonggong Liu nodded, "My lord, you are busy first." ”

Not long after Zhou Shuren returned to the house, Lord Shangshu called the household officials above the fourth grade to come over.

Xiao Qing saw that everyone had arrived, and said: "The hard work of the household, the emperor sees it, and there are rewards from the top to the bottom of the household, according to the grade, the third grade and the third grade are rewarded with three hundred taels of silver, the fourth grade and the fourth grade are two hundred taels, the fifth grade is one hundred taels from the fifth grade, the sixth grade is from the seventh grade to the seventh grade fifty taels, the eighth grade is from the ninth grade to the twenty taels, and the unentered grade is ten taels of silver. ”

Xiao Qing paused and continued: "The right waiter Zhou Shuren has just taken office, but he has solved the problem of the shortage of money in the household department, and the emperor has rewarded the right waiter with two hundred taels, hoping that the right waiter can continue to work hard for the court." ”

Zhou Shuren hurriedly thanked him, but thought in his heart, the emperor really knows how to calculate, five hundred taels is exactly the silver he donated!

This was a happy event for the household, and it soon spread throughout the household.

Zhou Shuren calculated an account, the departments in the household department are the most six, and the officials in the household department are also the most in the six, especially from the six products, so the household department also donated the most silver, and soon calculated the account, and the emperor rewarded only two-thirds of the donation!

The emperor is the emperor!

In the evening, when Zhou Shuren came back, Zhulan still asked with anticipation, "Is there one?" ”

Zhou Shuren took out the silver ticket and handed it to his daughter-in-law, "Yes." ”

Zhulan's eyes were full of surprises, there really was, and then she was stunned, and she counted the silver tickets she was rewarded, counting five hundred taels, "This?" ”

Zhou Shuren changed his clothes, "The whole household has been rewarded......."

After listening to this, Zhulan said, "....... served. ”

Zhou Shuren asked, "You didn't send a housekeeper to the fishing grounds!" ”

"Not yet, I said I didn't look forward to it, but I still had expectations in my heart, so I thought it wouldn't be bad for a day or two, so I thought about letting the housekeeper go in two days."

Zhou Shuren smiled, "With this silver, it should be enough." ”

Zhulan smiled, "With your Yulu, it's all enough." ”

Yaohou Mansion, Yao Yao is ready to go home, today she accompanied her mother to guard her younger brother for a day, the younger brother was calculated, and finally went out to breathe, and was pushed down the pavilion, his forehead hit a stone, and he was still unconscious.

Yao Yao got up, "Mother, my daughter will go back first, and I'll come back tomorrow." ”

Bai's eyes were swollen from crying, and his voice was dumb, "Okay." ”

Yao Yao glanced at her younger brother and regretted in her heart, if it wasn't for her medicine, her brother would not have been killed weakly, and he walked in a trance and didn't look at the road, and when he hit the little girl at the door, the bridal girl hurriedly supported her, "Miss, it's okay!" ”

Yao Yao frowned and stared at the little guy taken away by the other housekeeper, this person was a little familiar.

There's another chapter, it's going to be late, so let's read it tomorrow morning
