Chapter 198: A Temporary Change of Mind
Hong's words made Bai Xingyan and Ye hesitate, and Bai Jinghong was even more flustered.
This is a manifestation of wealth, casually opening their mouths and throwing out five million taels, a figure that is simply beyond their reach.
Silver is a good thing, but people are no longer foolishly carrying it in and taking it as they used to be. Now that the Hong family has the conditions, she not only has to hold the position of the housekeeper of the Guogong Mansion, but she also has to hold the account in her hand, isn't this just holding the middle feed?
Although this can solve the Bai family's temporary urgency, and even ensure a lifetime of wealth, the Ye family will not be able to make money.
A Wenguo Mansion with no oil and water to fish, what else can be done except for a hereditary title? The value is instantly half less.
Ye was unwilling, and said tentatively: "Sister Hong, it's not that I refuse to give it to you, it's just that since ancient times, there has been no precedent for any family to manage the concubine room!" ”
Bai Zhenzhen "cut", "Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for the concubine's maiden family to support you. I can't eat anymore and I'm reluctant to give you back, I don't think you're hungry. "She is also out of the way now, what father, bullshit mother, in the past, they greeted each other with smiles, and tried to please Bai Xingyan to maintain this family, because she felt that there might be hope in life. But this time she was completely desperate, so she simply didn't bother to be well-behaved and obedient
The daughter clearly told her father that she was not easy to mess with! Bai Xingyan was surprised by the change in this daughter, and the Ye family already knew what virtues Bai Zhenzhen had, after all, after all these years, the mother and daughter of the Hong family have not done one thing in front of her or behind her back? She was just worried that once the heart feed was taken away, she would not be able to get the silver from the Guogong Mansion in the future
How do you explain it at home? The Guo family is also waiting for the silver two to come to the door!
She continued to fight for herself: "It's better to keep only one housekeeper, after all, it's really not good to hear the news of the concubine's room being the main feeder, and the master's face is the most important thing." ”
Bai Zhenzhen shook her head, "Face is not as important as life, what face do you need if you are about to starve to death." The Hong family didn't care about this, she only said to Bai Xingyan: "Look, sir, I really let the concubine talk about it." I have long said that you should ask the second lady's opinion before making any decision, and don't make your own decisions, after all, this family is not something you can say if you want to. You see, you are the previous one
As soon as you agreed, the second lady refuted your face in the last sentence, what a shame! ”
Bai Xingyan was so angry that he gasped, firstly, the angry Hong clan actually thought of such a way to hold the lifeblood of the house, and secondly, the Ye clan actually slapped his face in the face, making him suffer humiliation. For a while, he didn't know who to help, he just had a breath in his heart, but he couldn't say a word. The Hong family walked up to the old lady, her face finally eased, and she said softly: "Old lady, it's not that the concubine wants to hold real power, but she really wants to keep a family business
I can't even see it. So don't blame the old lady for the concubine, the concubine is also a way to do it. The old lady nodded, of course she could understand the Red Clan. The mother's family pays money to support the husband's family, and it is reasonable for this to give money to the family. What's more, she would rather have a concubine in charge of the middle feed than let the Ye clan interfere anymore. As Hong said,
If it is still the same as before, the gold and silver mountains will not be able to hold it. "The old body is willing to hand over the feed to you." The old lady expressed her attitude, "Our Bai family can even raise the children of outsiders to raise their daughters and sons, and they can also connive at the children of outsiders to harm their own children, so it is not a big deal for a concubine to hold the feed." "Anyway, she
looked at the Ye family, and then said: "If someone thinks it's inappropriate, then leave the Bai family and go to live with someone she thinks is appropriate!" Our Bai family is poor and can't afford to raise rats that steal oil to eat. ”
Ye almost fainted, the dead old lady actually compared her to a mouse, it was damned. She remembered today's humiliation, and sooner or later she had to make up for it, she must let this old lady and the little slut die a good death, and break their bodies into thousands of pieces! Ye's fists clenched fiercely, and his body trembled. The Hong family was aggressive, and asked Bai Xingyan again: "The master is here to say, do you agree with the proposal of the concubine?" If you agree, there will be money in the house immediately, and if you don't agree, I'll eat bran with everyone! I'm not afraid anyway
Suffering, what you can bear, I can bear. ”
Zhang Dian, the funeral director on the side, also followed: "Grandpa Guo, the calculated hour is coming, you should settle the villain's silver first, so as not to blame the ancestors." Bai Xingyan was forced to this part, and he had no confidence to say no, so he had to nod helplessly, "If you want to be fed, I'll give it to you!" After speaking, he turned his eyes to look at the two subordinates of the Red Family, and said in a deep voice: "You guys listen to me, and you have entered my Wenguo Mansion, from now on."
It's a member of the Bai family, don't eat inside and out, you can't tell who is the master. ”
The two immediately saluted and said in unison, "The slave obeys the master's teachings. ”
Bai Xingyan snorted and pointed to the two of them: "If you are the grandfather of the country, your name will be changed to Bai." As he spoke, he pointed at Na Hongxing, "Your name is taboo, so change your name to Bai Shun!" ”
The two bowed down again.
On the side, Bai Huayan twisted the handkerchief under her hand, and said reluctantly: "They are all concubines, why should you let her hold the feed?" Since it is a concubine housekeeper, it is better to let Aunt Lin and Aunt Ye study together, and they can also share the burden for their father. ”
Bai Heran glanced at Bai Huayan and shook his head helplessly. This girl has gone astray and never looked back, and she has failed to succeed in igniting several times. After all, he has the blood of the Ye family in his bones, and he follows the temperament of the Ye family. "It's okay if you want to share it." She opened her mouth faintly, "Five million entrance fees, you can enter the main fund immediately after paying the silver." If anyone can produce more than Aunt Hong, then I will be the master for you, let Aunt Hong step down, and you will go up. She glanced at the crowd, the corners of her lips
He asked with a smile, "Who came out first?" Is it Aunt Lin, or Aunt Ye? ”
Bai Huayan didn't dare to squeak, Xiao Ye lowered his head, not wanting to participate in this matter, and at the same time secretly sighed that his daughter was still too immature, obviously she shouldn't be mixed, so she had to say such a sentence.
Lin twisted his waist and said, "I'm not such a good mother, and I can't come up with so much silver." My mother's family is still waiting to sing for all the families in Beijing, and if Sister Hong wants to invite someone to sing in the future, she has to think about our Lin family. ”
The Hong family glanced at her, "I don't stop me from singing in the Guogong Mansion, but those who can enter the Red Mansion Singing Hall are all in the royal team, and they show their faces in front of the emperor, and your Hong family is not qualified yet." ”
The Lin family snorted coldly, and then sighed: "Alas, if our Lin family can also enter the palace to sing a second opera, our worth will have to rise a lot!" After that, his eyes skimmed to Ye's, and then he remembered that Ye's eyes couldn't see, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. After the Hong clan had finished everything he wanted to do, he took Bai Zhenzhen to find a place to sit down, and at the same time beckoned to Bai Yun, who had changed his name, and took a few silver tickets from his sleeve. "Take it to the account room and enter it, and from now on the accounts of the house will be checked by me every three days, and every one of them will be put into the account
I have made it clear that except for the old lady, no one is allowed to go to the account to pay the money without my preparation, including the master. Do you remember clearly? ”
Bai Yun immediately responded: "The minions have all been written down, aunt rest assured, there are minions, what the red family does on the accounts, the Bai family will do it, and the guarantee is clear, and no one can take advantage of the loopholes." ”
As soon as these words came out, Ye's heart became even colder. The Hong family's accounts are notoriously clear and clear, how can she deduct the money from the Guogong Mansion in the future?
The two newcomers retreated, the old lady sent Mama Li to take them to familiarize themselves with the situation, and the funeral gentleman Zhang Dian also followed to get the silver, and the rest of the people gathered in the front hall, and everyone was quiet for a while.
Bai Xingyan pondered, thinking that no matter what, at least the silver crisis in front of the Bai family was resolved, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then coughed lightly twice, announcing an important decision - "Today's ancestor worship is not in the ancestral hall in the house, but in the Guangming Temple outside the city." ”
When these words came out, everyone was stunned, and even the Ye family didn't understand why they changed places.
Guangming Temple is located on a cliff ten miles west of the upper capital, and has a history of hundreds of years. Originally, it was only a small temple, and there was only an old monk with a small monk guarding the temple. Because of the special terrain, the temple is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and few people are willing to take the risk of climbing up to burn incense and worship the Buddha, and there is no incense at all. Even the old monks have to take the little monks with them often
Only by going down the mountain can you maintain your basic life.
But just more than ten years ago, when the emperor went out to pass through this place, he suddenly became interested, abandoned his horse and climbed the mountain into this temple to pray for the frontier. Within a month, the news of the great victory in the northwest reached the upper capital.
Tianhe Emperor Yan Dayue, sighed at the magic of the incense of the Guangming Temple, and wrote the words by himself, and changed the new plaque for the Guangming Temple. Money was also allocated to repair the temple and the only rugged path up the mountain was built into steps. Since then, Guangming Temple has become famous, and in the past ten years, the incense has been continuous, and the number of pilgrims who climb up and down every day is innumerable. And the senior monks of the nearby monastery admired the incense of the Guangming Temple, and came to take refuge one after another, and soon changed from an old monk and a small monk to a bunch of old monks and a bunch of small monks. now
The Guangming Temple was built again and again, and it became the first temple on the left and right of the upper capital. The old lady frowned and thought about it, although Bai Xingyan temporarily changed the place of sacrifice, but maybe it was also because the Hong family returned home and had money, and wanted to do the ancestor worship more beautifully. Moreover, the Guangming Temple even the emperor often goes, and Bai Xingyan really can't find a reason to refute this proposal
I had no choice but to nod, which was considered to be a response.
Hakuzuru has no opinion, whether it is in the house or in the temple, what should happen will always happen, just change the place. So she looked at Bai Xingyan and said with a smile: "Father wants to go, then let's go!" "If you want to make a move, I'll take it......
