Chapter 98: Straightforward and unpretentious fortune

In the second room, for a while, no one spoke.

Cao Shi was sitting on pins and needles, his smile was embarrassed and nervous, and the handkerchief in his hand was tightened.

Her face was bitterer than bitter gourd, and she glanced at Wen Zifu and then at Old Madam Gui.

Old Madam Gui coughed twice and said slowly, "No money?" Oh, last year's ......"

"Ahem!" Cao's cough is louder than the old lady, everyone is there, the eyes are too obvious, although the cough is also fake, but, the short man is taller, and he will use it.

"You're sick too?" Old Madam Gui glared at Cao's family, "Go and move all the account books, and the old woman will see what is going on." ”

Cao Shi answered, retreated outside, and sighed aggrievedly.

She knew that sooner or later it would come to the table.

The huge Hou Mansion has been passed down for so many generations, and the ups and downs are ordinary, but it is really unreasonable to say that the clear soup at the bottom of the family is low and water is used for their own share.

There are various conditions in each place.

The third room needs silver to change the situation.

An Shi talked about the silver several times, and the Cao family told her that there was no money in the public school, and the An family forced the door to ask her to borrow money personally.

Wen Zilan was transferred, although there is silver, it may not be able to settle down, but there is definitely no way without silver.

Wen Zifu and Wen Zilan, two brothers, who had a good relationship and relationship in the past, were able to quarrel and cry for silver, which shows that they have been pressed for too long.

The two sisters and brothers in the big house are not in a hurry to use the money now, but they have carried the pot that has emptied the family foundation.

Don't look at Wen Yan's love to laugh all day long and her lively temperament, Cao Shi knows that this girl is not a dumb person at all.

That day, Wen Yan only mentioned it in a hurry, but she knew that there was so much money in the family last year, how could she not be resentful?

Just in the house, he was very comfortable, out of step with the others, and he didn't feel like he had thrown a powder keg at all.

Cao's heart said: No one is a saint.

The three brothers were all born to Mrs. Gui, and Wen Ziliang died, but he also left Wen Zhang.

The Wen family's three rooms are far from the time when they are separated, and everyone pays money into the public middle school and lives on the monthly income from the public middle school.

The ability to make more friends, in order to support the education of children, to support the life of the elders, the ability to pay less, down-to-earth, family inheritance, talk about a concerted effort.

Every family and every prefecture, which can be passed down from generation to generation, is arranged in this way.

The Wen family is no exception, and no one has said anything bad before.

However, when the time really comes to make money, there is no one in the public, and there is no clear statement, so who wants to be a fool who only gives money and does not use money?

went to protect two children in the year, and the house was enough to protect half of the ......

Wen Yuan came out of the pavilion and saved Wen Yan with silver, and the marriage was reduced and reduced.

Wen Zilan dredged the way, but this remark was also debunked by Wen Yan in person.

Now, Mrs. Gui is going to Beijing......

Cao Shi took a deep breath and silently repeated in his heart: "No one is a saint. ”

The big room and the third room can be questioned, so should their second room bear the unwarranted grievances?

Anyway, the silver is not lost in her hands, so just take this opportunity to explain it all clearly, so as not to make her hard-working and thankless.

Cao Shi made up his mind and asked Mama Hu to come: "What about the silver, the old lady wants to see the account book, you can bring all the real accounts." ”

Mama Hu was stunned: "Where is the third master?" The three girls are also there? Why did you suddenly say silver? ”

"The old lady is going to Beijing to buy a house, and when it comes to money...... Cao Shi shook his head, "You go quickly." ”

Mama Hu trotted to do it, and soon brought the account books of nearly half a year to Cao's family.

Seeing that the Cao family entered the Longevity Hall again, Mama Hu patted her head, the old lady wants to buy property in Beijing, is that the family about to enter Beijing?

Her dream of going to the foot of the capital to gild a layer of gold, is this about to come true?

Oops!

Now is not the time to think about that, it is important to solve the problem at hand.

In the second room, Mrs. Gui closed her eyes tiredly and leaned on the pillow to recuperate.

Seeing that Cao's came back with the account book, the old lady scolded in her heart "no eyes", this Erlang daughter-in-law is a Geng, and she didn't even hear her prevarication.

I thought that the ledger was delayed, and she was so tired and panicked that she asked her two sons to talk about it again Ming'er, would she not be able to delay it?

Stupid, straight, stupid, stunned!

This Cao family, it's good if Sister Yan is half shrewd!

Cao put the ledger on a few pieces: "The general ledger for six months, one book for one month, is here, please look at the old lady." The previous ones were stored in the storeroom, and I had them picked up. ”

Old Madam Gui took out a copy, looked at it casually, and said, "You can also take a look, if you have any doubts, ask directly." ”

Wen Zifu didn't move.

When Wen Zilan saw this, he knew that he was an insider, shook his head in disappointment, and took a copy himself.

Wen Yan also opened a book and quickly scanned it.

The account book is very clean, clear at a glance, only the expenses are scanned, there is nothing wrong, but the balance on the books......

"Isn't there still more than 20,000 cash in silver?" Wen Zilan was surprised.

Wen Yan was also pondering this, looking up at Cao.

Cao's sneered: "Third uncle, the 20,000 is beautifully written, but in fact there is not, and some are the four digits at the back." ”

Wen Zilan didn't understand.

Cao Shi looked at the roof beam and muttered: "Uncle Changyuan next door, the eldest grandson is called the 'Eleventh Master', which means that." ”

Wen Zifu realized, and it was difficult to explain it.

Wen Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she couldn't see that her second uncle was still a talent!

In order to prosper the people, Uncle Changyuan added a "ten" to his eldest grandson and wanted to recruit incense.

Cao added 20,000 yuan to the cash number, which is a fortune.

Straightforward, unpretentious, and imaginative!

Wen Yan glanced at the numbers again, removing the 20,000, and the remaining four digits, the first one was still one.

The dignified Ding'an Hou Mansion, those who are poor can see it are sad, and those who hear it are in tears.

She was quite expected, after all, in her previous life, she had sold her land separately.

Wen Zilan was even more stimulated, he didn't expect that the account was really so miserable.

To maintain a decent life for the family in accordance with the rules of the Hou Mansion, to support so many domestic servants, and to make their two brothers not overstretched and lose their dignity in the daily response of officialdom, this more than 1,000 taels of silver is really not rich.

He doesn't care about the affairs of the house, but he won't be ignorant of the high cost of oil and salt, if there is really only so much, after dealing with the expenses, leaving some emergencies, it is true that he can't move a few hundred taels for him to go to the door.

"Our family," Wen Zilan was very entangled, "Our family is so poor?" ”

The Cao family was already out of the way, and nodded at Wen Zilan without hesitation: "The things handed down by the ancestors in the treasury can't be taken out and sold, they can only be used as ornaments, and there are still some items in the Zhuangzi shop at the bottom, but they are not rich, our family is so poor!" ”

Wen Yan didn't interject, she quickly flipped through the three volumes.

Then, she wanted to give Cao a round of applause.

With such a movable amount of silver, the Cao family made the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the Ding'an Hou Mansion not show a little timidity, and it still looked beautiful on the surface, and also flattened the accounts, and did not continue to lose money.

It's really capable!
