Recently, there have been many things in Dufu, and people from all walks of life have asked for silver. Du Heng was physically and mentally haggard, and found time to deal with Du Yi's affairs, which made Du Heng, who was already busy, even more busy. As soon as I returned to Du Mansion, I was busy in the study non-stop.

It stands to reason that Du Zhigao has already passed the age of the weak crown, and he should be helped to share the burden. But seeing that he was going to try it in February of the next year, Du Heng also hoped that he could take the road of the imperial examination, so he would let him study with peace of mind.

When Du Yi walked into the study, he saw what Du Heng was writing, as if he hadn't seen anything. So he found a stool and sat down. Du Heng was busy, and it was impossible for him to come in by himself, so he didn't even have the time to say a word. The current situation directly illustrates a problem. That is, Du Heng didn't take Du Yi to heart at all.

I don't know how long it took, Du Heng raised his head and took a sip of the tea that had already cooled, and then he saw Du Yi. With a very surprised look on his face, he said, "Yiyi, when did you come here, why don't you call your uncle?" ”

Du Yi had a smile on his face: "I just came, and I can't bear to disturb my uncle when I see that my uncle is busy!" ”

"You kid, what are you polite to your uncle? By the way, you came to my uncle so late, but what's the matter? ”

Duy's lowered eyes flashed a hint of mockery without a trace, so late? In this big summer, you can still see it at * o'clock, and the evening reception banquet is held early, according to modern time, even the time of eight o'clock in the evening is not enough, and it is still bright outside, and it is actually late. Didn't that mean that she Doe had bothered him?

"Uncle, Yi Yi has just returned, and he has no silver on him. Wondering, when will there be a monthly silver collar? And the moon silver during the time when Yi Yi was not in the mansion before, can you give it to Yi Yi? Yi Yi has a child to raise and a lot of things to buy. It's not good to let the house break the bank, thinking that the previous monthly silver is used to buy, just right! ”

Du Heng didn't expect Du Yi to ask for silver, and he was a little stunned. But what Doe said was right, and it was reasonable. He knew that Dui's monthly silver was twenty taels in a month, and two hundred and forty taels in a year. Just now Du Yina meant that the four years should be counted to her, so that there would be a small amount of one thousand taels of silver, although it was not much, but it was not a lot.

In addition, she also came back with a child and said that she wanted to buy things, how could he, who was an uncle, not care about anything. In this case, it is reasonable to give at least 1,500 taels.

But when I think about it, I want silver everywhere now. Ling Guogong Mansion, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion, and the Six Princes, this time it is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people who go out, and I feel distressed when I think about it.

Most of the money he earned in a year went into other people's pockets. But if you don't give it, you can't do it, this Du Mansion has to depend on them to exist. Otherwise, with a word from those people, the foundation of Du Fu's hard work all his life would be ruined.

"Uncle?" Du Yi looked at Du Heng with doubts in his eyes. As if to say, isn't her dignified Du Mansion not even a thousand taels?

"You're waiting for this, Mr. Ma, go and call Madame!" The affairs of this inner courtyard have always been in the hands of Du Ling's family, and now Du Yi wants silver, so let her give it well.

Du Heng knew that Du Ling's family had been enriching his pockets in the past few years, and he originally thought that they were one husband and wife, and she saved the silver, and in the end, it was also on his children, and she didn't care so much. Now that Doy wants it, let her take out a little. The money on his side must not be touched.

Because it was Du Ling's who was called by the horse steward, she came over quickly. When I saw Duyi, I was stunned, and I felt that there must be nothing good. Sure enough, I listened to Du Heng and said: "Ling'er, the affairs in this mansion have always been in charge of you. Since Yi Yi has returned to the mansion, you can make up for her the monthly silver in the past few years. In addition, now that there is another child, she also has to add some things in the yard, I pondered for a while, and you can give her 1,500 taels. During this time, she may need to go out into the street to buy something, and you ask someone to follow her to carry it. ”

When Doe heard it, he was happy. From the very beginning, Du Heng showed that he loved him everywhere. Now she is reluctant to give out the money, and as she expected, let Du Ling's pay for it, and now, she is afraid that she will not be able to sleep at night.

"Uncle, this is a good thing to carry around. :3w.し Yi Yi himself took people out to buy it, but Yi Yi can freely enter and leave Du Mansion? Du Yi looked worried about Du Ling's sake, and then remembered the matter of leaving the mansion, so he asked pitifully.

When Du Heng heard this, he was decisively unhappy, thinking that Du Ling's family had not let Du Yi out of the mansion in the past, so he would let her say this. Therefore, he glared at Du Lingshi fiercely and said, "You are the master of this Du Mansion, you can't go in and out at will, so who can?" ”

Du Yi breathed a sigh of relief, it was enough to have Du Heng's words.

"Uncle Yiyi, but when will this silver be given to Yiyi? Yi Yi thought about going out to buy things tomorrow, and by the way, he also bought the things from the kitchen, which ......"

Du Lingshi didn't say a word from beginning to end, and looked at Du Yi and Du Heng to finalize the matter in a few sentences. She was so angry that she couldn't do it, but now she could only cling to Du Heng, and she gave birth to that freak a few years ago, and she gradually calmed down. She categorically can't make trouble at this time, otherwise she will only push herself to the cusp.

"Ling'er, you go and fetch the silver for Yiyi!" Du Heng glanced at Du Ling, who was stunned, and frowned slightly.

"Master......" Du Ling's heart was extremely unwilling, this one was a thousand taels. Although they have money in Dufu, they don't give it that way. And what the old man means now is that she has to take out her own money to subsidize it. Even if Du Ling's heart was unwilling, under Du Heng's displeased gaze, he still agreed.

Since it has to be given in the end, at least the face must be passed. Therefore, Du Lingshi smiled softly and said to Du Yi: "This silver is what Yi Yi deserves. Yiyi, wait a minute, my aunt will go and bring you the money now. You kid, it's inconvenient to have at hand, just tell your aunt directly. Your uncle is busy now, so he doesn't need to be bothered with these little things. ”

Du Yi's heart was happy and crooked, Du Ling's teeth were knocked out, and he had to swallow it in his stomach. As long as she can add to Du Ling's blockage, she is willing to do it.

"Auntie, won't it be too troublesome?" When Doe said this, he looked guilty.

Du Lingshi watched Du Yi get cheap and behaved, and almost vomited blood. Knowing the trouble, then what more do you want? But he still pretended to be casual: "Don't bother, don't bother, you wait for your aunt, soon." ”

Looking at Du Ling's tightly knitted embroidered handkerchief, his messy steps, and his back walking away, Du Yi turned to look at Du Heng: "Uncle, can Yi Yi sit and wait for her aunt like this?" ”

Du Heng originally thought that Du Yi should go back now, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but reach out and stroke his forehead, and said, "Naturally, you can sit down, Yiyi, my uncle still has some things to deal with!" ”

After Du Yi sat down, Du Heng continued to be busy. glanced at Bai Mei and Liu who were standing outside the door, and a smile quickly flashed in their eyes.

Why Du Heng is distressed now, she naturally knows. He is just seeking skin with tigers, and no matter how much silver he gives to those people, he will never be able to fill their mouths. I brewed the bitter fruit by myself, and I could only swallow it by myself.

At the beginning, what her father relied on was the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to become an imperial businessman. But since Du Heng took over, he slowly got rid of his grandfather's house, and thought that he had fallen on the big tree of the sixth prince, Zi Yifeng. It's sad and ridiculous, she waits to see how he is cornered.

"Yiyi, this is fifteen hundred taels of silver, you ......" When Du Yi observed the study, he heard Du Ling's slightly panting voice.

"Auntie, I'm really bothering you!"

Du Yi smiled, stretched out his hand and dragged the silver ticket that Du Ling held tightly in his hand. counted in front of Du Heng, who knows if Du Ling's gave less.

Each one was a silver ticket of one hundred taels, but Du Yi counted but only thirteen, and felt extremely disdainful of Du Ling's in his heart. is really a concubine who can't get on the stage, in front of Du Heng, she still dares to do something, thinking that she just took the money and left, and there is no way to ask afterwards?

Du Yi, who had an idea in her heart, saw her pause, quickly glanced up at Du Heng, and counted carefully from beginning to end again. When Du Heng saw Du Yi's move, he already knew it in his heart. Looking at Du Ling's gaze, he became more and more unkind.

Du Lingshi vomited blood again, she never thought that Du Yi's temperament had changed so much. It stands to reason that Du Yi should go back after taking the money, but now that she is like this, do you want her to not be able to get down the steps?

"Yiyi, you see that my aunt is really confused, there are still three hundred taels here. The extra 100 taels is a gift from the aunt to Xiaoshuai. You see that this little handsome man has entered the house, and the aunt has not had time to prepare the gift. You take this one hundred taels and buy something for Xiaoshuai tomorrow that he likes! ”

Du Lingshi gritted his teeth and took out three chapters of one hundred taels of silver from his sleeve pocket. Dripping blood in distress, I originally wanted to secretly swallow the two hundred taels, but I didn't expect that I had to paste one hundred taels upside down, otherwise I wouldn't be able to pass the test on Du Heng's side.

Seeing Du Ling's actions, Du Heng nodded again and again, and said, "Yiyi, you take it." This is the person she is an uncle and should give! ”

Under Du Ling's poisonous gaze, Du Yi took the three hundred taels of silver tickets, counted them correctly, and carefully put them in his arms. looked up at Du Heng and his wife again and said, "By the way, auntie, there is something Yiyi wants to ask, that is, Xiaoshuai, does he have moon silver?" Mama, did their moonsilver be given by Yiyi? ”

Since she got everything she deserved back, she also has to fight for Baimei Ziding's, right? Besides, her son is also the master of this mansion, and the moon silver he deserves must not be less.

Du Lingshi was stunned again, what does Du Yi mean by this?

"This is natural, the monthly silver of the girl in your yard is distributed with the house every month, and everything is in accordance with the rules of the house. As for Xiao Shuai, he is a male baby and the master of our house, so let's get it according to twenty taels first. When he was seven years old, he grew to fifty taels a month. As for the rest, the masters of the house should have, he will definitely not be less! ”

In Du Ling's eyes, Xiaoshuai is a sinister seed, and he does not belong to the master at all. She didn't even want to write about Doe. But Du Heng has spoken, how can she refute it?

"Yi Yi for the little handsome, thank you uncle! If nothing happens, Yi Yi will retire first! Du Yi said this, made a salute, carried 1,600 taels of silver tickets in his arms, and returned triumphantly.

What happened in the study, Bai Mei heard it clearly. On the way back, he told Liu everything that happened inside. Du Yi was in a very good mood, walking on the road in Fuli, and instantly felt that in fact, this summer was not so hot.

When he returned to the Qingfeng Pavilion, Du Yi told him about the silver ticket he got back, as well as the matter of the moon silver. Finally, he handed over the silver to Liu and said, "Mother, in the future, the silver in my house will be handed over to you to manage." Bai Mei Ziding, you two look at my clothes and jewelry. Let's go out tomorrow and go shopping on the streets. ”

"Yes, Miss!" Baimei Ziding also smiled, happy for Du Yi in her heart. But they all know that this is the beginning, and they have to lift their spirits at all times. The people in this Du Mansion are not as simple as the people in Liujia Village.

After washing, Du Yi took a look at Xiao Shuai, who was already asleep, carrying a rocking chair and lying in the courtyard, so comfortable.

"Miss, Orange Blossom is here!" After the hour, the voice of Bai Mei came to my ears.

"Miss, the slave can be regarded as seeing you!" With tears in her eyes, Orange Rose knelt on the ground and looked at Doyi, a little emotional.

"Get up, you want to ask about Green Willow?" Du Yi came back this time, and she didn't bring green willows, and she knew what she was thinking when she looked at the orange rose.

"Miss!" Orange Rose was anxious, but when she saw Du Yi, she felt that she had been pretending to be strong for many years, and at this moment, it all collapsed, as if she had found the backbone of the heart.

"You can rest assured, the green willow is fine now. She is in Fengshan Village, not far from this Fengcheng, and she is doing well. It's just that you also know her temper, and with the lack of an eye, it's inevitable that there will be some ......."

It doesn't take Du Yi to finish speaking, Orange Rose can guess it. I saw a trace of hatred flashing in the eyes that were originally very shrewd: "The slave will definitely avenge the green willow." Miss, the slave has something to ask you! ”

Orange Rose was still kneeling on the ground, and a thought came to mind when she thought of the green willow.

"What's the matter, just say it. Get up, even if it's hot, it's cold on the ground. Doe said, pulling up the orange poll himself.

"Miss, the age of the green willow has also arrived, and please give her a good marriage. The slave didn't want to see her give up on herself because of her mutilated appearance. ”

"I have my own plans for this. But you, what do you think? According to your age, you should also be at the age of getting married and leaving the house. Although you are a girl of the death contract, if you have this idea, I can help you! ”

There is a rule in the Du Mansion, once the girl with the living deed reaches the double ten-year age, she can choose to continue to stay, and the master will marry or directly issue it out of the house. However, if it is a death contract, it will be held in the hands of the master for life.

"Du Zilin said to the slave maid that the three years of the national mourning will be completed. When the time comes, she will marry and take her slave and maid with her. Thinking of this, a trace of disdain flashed in Orange Rose's eyes again.

"Then you stay, don't worry. Soon I will bring you back to me, you and Green Willow are both indispensable to me! After Du Yi said this, he took off the jade bracelet in his hand and put it in the hand of Orange Rose.

"Thank you, young lady, for the reward!" Orange Rose faced Du Yi's reward, not arrogant or impatient. This alone made Du Yi feel very satisfied, and then glanced at Liu without a trace.

Liu nodded clearly, took out a hundred taels of silver tickets and handed them to Orange Rose's hand, and said, "The previous silver, I'm afraid you will also run out." You have this silver ticket, and the affairs in the house need you to do more now. Those people are staring at me now, and it's inconvenient for me to come forward! ”

Orange Luo knew that Mama Liu was the old man next to the young lady, and she was the old man in the house. Miss's everything, she is dotting. Now everyone's eyes are naturally on Miss, and Mama Liu is really inconvenient.

After seeing Orange Rose, Du Yi said to Bai Mei: "Send Orange Rose back, pay attention on the way!" ”

"Yes, Miss!" After Bai Mei finished speaking, Du Yi and Liu only felt a flower in front of them, and the two people who were originally standing in front of them were gone.
