Chapter Thirty-Seven: He Has No Moonsilver
The Seventh Young Master hadn't gone out this afternoon, so Yue'er was waiting in his study. In fact, it is said that it is a study, and there are not many books, almost empty.
There's a bookcase, a chair, and a soft couch.
There is a kang in front of the window, and the purple mat is covered with a red mattress sprinkled with gold all over the place. The autumn-colored pillow, the fragrant nan small table is placed in the center of the kang. The glass plate contains purple grapes and two plates of snacks. The tea set is also made in the official kiln, and even the shape of the incense burner in front of the kang is unusual.
Yue'er stared at the incense burner for a long time, it looked like a tripod, the four corners were a recalcitrant with a copper ring in the mouth, and the top was also a complete and fierce relic.
The Seventh Young Master was looking at the book with one hand on the pillow, raised his eyes to look at Yue'er and then at the incense burner, so he didn't say anything, and his eyes fell on the page again.
This incense burner Yue'er didn't want to understand, so she picked up the book that the seventh young master read with her, and went to sit down on the chair in front of the bookcase.
The seventh young master beckoned to her: "Come over here and see, if you don't understand, I can explain it to you." ”
She went to the side of the kang again, and there was a small number of Xiangnan in the middle, and the two of them were reading books on both sides.
Seeing that she had read a page for a long time and had not turned it, the Seventh Young Master put down the book in his hand and sat down to take a look at it, and then explained it to her.
After that, the Seventh Young Master asked her, "What books have you read before?" ”
Yue'er didn't feel that her face was red again, and she lowered her head and snorted like a mosquito: "The books I read before were all designated by my aunt, and I have to take the school exam." "Women's Rules", "Women's Commandments", and "Women's Four Books" are still mentioned by other people's ladies, and I am not allowed to read those. It's more ......" Speaking of this, she paused, peeked at the seventh young master, and lowered her voice: "It's mostly not very good books, and then there are some poems, and it's not good poetry, it's just that you can do it with interest." ”
The Seventh Young Master didn't interrupt her, but kept looking at her, as if he was waiting for her to continue.
Yue'er didn't want to say more, but she suddenly thought of something and continued: "My aunt invited me to raise my grandmother, but I also invited a female gentleman who didn't know where to come from, and the things she taught were different from others." It is indispensable to check the face and look at the color, and it is indispensable to meet the self, and it is also necessary to learn the things on the man. A man's heart, a man's likes and dislikes. Although I don't know what the girls in the Qinglou learn, I always guess and hear a little, it seems that what I learned is what women like them learned. ”
The Seventh Young Master tried to suppress the anger in his chest, and then asked, "The last time you looked at the accounts, you had quite a lot of insights into business, where did you learn this?" ”
When asked about this, Yue'er's eyes were red: "It was taught by my father before I was ten years old, and he said that I would be a housewife in the future, and I had to learn all this." Later, when I came to my grandmother's house, I was not allowed to study. Whenever I think of my father, I secretly warm what he taught me. The price was occasionally mentioned by my uncle, so I wrote it down carefully. ”
"Okay, in the future, the shop will be in your hands, and you can do whatever you want, without asking me. I don't expect these businesses to support my family, you have the right to do fun. ”
Yue'er stood up violently when she heard this, and when she was about to kneel down again, she remembered his previous words and didn't dare: "Young master, this won't work, I don't know what kind of layout you have in this business, in case your plan is broken, it will delay the big thing." ”
He exhaled lightly and chuckled: "I don't have any layout in the business, you just do it." There is only one requirement for you, that is, to forget everything you have learned in the Lin family in the past five years. Find back everything that Shen Xiangye has taught you, I will teach you personally, and from tomorrow onwards, come to my study every morning to read. After breakfast you are to run a shop business, and the books are delivered to you regularly. The stewards and the treasurers shall consult thee in their affairs, and the great seal of the business shall be handed over to thee. ”
Before Yue'er could say anything, the Seventh Young Master raised his hand to stop her: "This is my girl, you have to do it, and you must not have any objections." ”
Yue'er can only shut up, but who told her that a girl would have such a big right? This is simply what the mother of a family can do, how should she be good?
She was still thinking about it, and the Seventh Young Master stretched out his hand to her: "Give me a hundred taels in the public school, and I will use it for entertainment, and you will settle the account like this." ”
Yue'er Huo raised her head: "What kind of entertainment needs to be a hundred taels, how can there be such a reason, there is no detail." ”
The Seventh Young Master rubbed his forehead with his fingertips a little embarrassed: "Then, fifty taels is fine." ”
Yue'er still doesn't give up, she has to ask what happened, otherwise she is in charge of the accounts, how can she end up with such a foolish account, in the future, everyone in this courtyard will do this, and it won't be messed up.
In the end, the seventh young master had no choice but to say: "You all have moon silver, and I don't have moon silver, so there are always some silver taels that need to be brought with you for eating and drinking." ”
Saying this, Yue'er stopped pressing, so she took fifty taels with him.
Yue'er went to look at the account book, and the seventh young master handed over fifty taels of silver to Xiao Chuan'er. And Xiao Chuan'er was confused when he heard his master suddenly warn him: "There must be a source for spending a penny, and you need to be careful on the books." ”
This can scare Xiao Chuan'er a lot, isn't it that the master suspects that he is greedy for silver? This is a great wrong, he has been by his master's side since he was a child, and he has been beaten for his master, but he has never spent money for his master.
Yue'er was still worried, and asked the seventh young master: "Young master, my identity has been exposed, and I didn't make a fuss in this capital yesterday." Is it really okay to go out like this now? ”
"There's no need to hide it, you know what you should know. You are still Yue Chenxing, and you have the "Shen Yue'er" that Mrs. Shen married, so you should be regarded as replacing you. ”
In fact, it's just that he doesn't dare to be so laissez-faire anymore, Yang Mo was very angry when he found it, so he had to quickly label this person as his own.
She, Shen Yue'er, is my seventh young master's person, no matter whether you have new knowledge or old knowledge, you can roll as far as you want. Originally, according to his original plan, he must have avoided it a little more.
Hearing that the dark guard reported what happened to her yesterday, especially the Dragon Boat Festival that Miss still wanted to find Xie Gongzi, the Seventh Young Master came back regardless of it.
After noon, I took Yue'er out to watch the play, and when I arrived at the theater garden, I naturally entered the box. Yue'er came here for the first time in her life, and she was surprised to see everything.
The Seventh Young Master said to Xiao Chuan'er behind him: "The ice flake cake in Yipinge, the nine-system black plum in the Shoubai family pharmacy on the back street, and the ginger candy and dragon beard candy in the Fang family's sugar shop. When you go to Yipinkaku, let them stew a cup of greasy soup, not sweet. ”
Xiao Chuan'er quickly ran out to do things for his master, and carefully priced every thing he bought. When he returned, he put everything away, and then went to borrow pen and ink and put the account down.
Lantern Xiao was waiting behind her, Yue'er's attention was always on the stage on the first floor, while the Seventh Young Master was paying attention to her while paying attention to the box opposite.
The boxes are half rolled up, and if you want to eat and drink here without watching the show, you can also drop all the curtains. The private room that the Seventh Young Master asked for was made of three curtains, only Yue'er's side was rolled up with curtains, and his side fell.
