Chapter 40 The Second Room of the Little Rich

"Twenty taels." After speaking, Gu Zhixian said again, "There are only a few days left in this month, you can start to sort out the internal accounts from next month." Of these twenty taels, there are ten taels for the next month, and the other ten taels for your own use. If you want to use a lot of money, make Hanxiang find Gu Xi in exchange. By the way, I have instructed Gu Xi to ask him to find someone to come over and add two more maids to the house. You pick people, and the money Gu Xi will knot. ”

Gu Zhixian said carefully, as for whether Gu Yao had a private room, he didn't ask at all, and directly acquiesced to no.

Gu Yao especially regretted it.

When she was in Fengcheng before, the Meng family had never had a monthly money with her. If she was in need, Dong Xue had money in her pocket, and she paid it directly, and it was Meng Shan's account - Gu Yao didn't take the Meng family's money to buy things, but it was true.

In short, the only money she had on hand was the monthly money given by her father and sent by her grandfather. And because she had no concept of money, when she left, all her possessions, the whole number of which were four taels of silver and three pennies.

If you want to leave, the money is not easy to take, so you will naturally give it away.

Yu Niang, Zhang Quan, and Yuan Fang, she each shared a hanging. As for the silver, in view of Yuan Fang's ability, Yu Niang's grandfather, and Zhang Quan's craftsmanship, she only moved one or two pieces of broken silver and gave one to Liu Liu.

I knew that Wanping had ten taels of silver waiting for her, so she would give it to Liu Liu in two taels!

Uh, wait-

"Daddy, I heard them mention it during the New Year's Festival, saying that it was the rice, grain and silver of the county, which was converted into a hundred taels a year. You will give ten taels for the inner courtyard alone, and the silver money can be used? Not to mention those things that are sent to Liaodong every year! Daddy, you can't make ends meet! ”

"Hahahaha......"

Gu Zhixian laughed loudly.

In his life, there are many women who are closely related, but it is the first time that he has heard the opposite sex remind him not to "make ends meet". After laughing, Gu Zhixian rubbed Gu Yao's hair bun and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Daddy has silver." ”

"A hundred taels is also available. Daddy, I'm talking about making ends meet! Half of the expenses are recorded in the account, and the rest is saved, and emergency and home purchase are serious things. ”

After not returning home for many years, Gu Yao changed some of the new experiences in his previous life and used them to teach his father.

Gu Zhixian listened, thought about it seriously, and bowed his head. If the children can live like this, it will not matter if their house will be rich for three more generations. Seeing that Gu Yao was very anxious, Gu Zhixian's heart was sour. He was as old as her, no, even when he was approaching, because of his mother, he had never been so worried about money in his own house.

Son, I have suffered with my father! Thinking like this, Gu Zhixian quickly made a decision, because he said: "I think your grandfather has told you about the Gu family's house rules." According to the family rules, Daddy doesn't have much money. The family eats and drinks freely because your grandmother is richly married. When my father came to Wanping to take up his post, I didn't know that Wanping and Taikang had a lot of money and money. After buying the house in Xinghua Temple Hutong, he also added 300 acres of land in Wanping. Over the years, as you just said, there have been more and more fields, and now there are 500 acres. ”

"Five hundred acres, can you earn five hundred taels a year?"

Seeing that Gu Yao was worried about money, but he didn't know how to make money, Gu knew that it was even more uncomfortable. That feeling is like entering the officialdom for the first time, he wants to be a good job, but he doesn't know how to do it. That kind of panic, I don't know how many hairs he lost......

Subconsciously, Gu Zhixian dragged the head down again, sighed, and said: "Taikang's high-grade fields, two seasons a year, can collect a lot of money from 1,000 to 1,005 yuan in rent, the specifics depend on the year." As for Wanping in one season a year, it would be good to be able to drop three hundred taels. In recent years, the house of Xinghua Temple has been uninhabited, and it is rented out, and it costs thirty or fifty taels a year. Your grandmother was afraid that I would have a hard time, so she made up for me every year by one or two hundred taels. Everywhere adds up, the family expenses, and the favors are enough. ”

After saying everything, seeing the girl's happy and relaxed expression, Gu Zhixian was finally in a better mood.

Suddenly remembering his mother's instructions, Gu Zhixian whispered: "Yaoyao, it's good if you know these, don't talk about your grandfather."

"Dad, don't worry, I'm not stupid, I won't say anything if I kill me."

Gu Yao nodded hurriedly, and swore a promise. Gu Zhi County's boss is too ashamed. At that time, his mother told him because he told him about his family background - fortunately he didn't know much at that time.

The next morning, Gu Yao put on knee pads made of roe deer hair, went to the gatehouse, sat side by side with Zhang Sheng on the threshold, and talked to him about Zhang Quan's recent situation.

"Brother Quan has grown again, and he is about to make you taller. In addition to being good at cooking, the female workers are also better than me. This knee pad, which he made, is he about to get married? ”

Zhang Sheng took the knee pad, put it in his arms, and held it tightly, while protesting a little: "Xiaoquan only marries a daughter-in-law!"

Zhang Quan's memory, his brother is always absent; In Zhang Sheng's memory, his younger brother was brought up by himself. Time is a thing that makes the brothers pay too much attention to each other. Gu Yao understood, and casually expressed his grievances for Zhang Sheng: "Brother Sheng is a good brother, Brother Quan, not a good brother." ”

"He's a good brother." Zhang Sheng said firmly.

"He's a good brother to me." Realizing that he was judging others at will, Gu Yao hurriedly changed his words, and after saying his opinion, he consciously changed the topic and got down to business: "Yesterday, I met a persimmon seller on the street, her persimmons are so delicious, I bought them all, and asked the girl to send some more. That sister's name is Song Haitang, and she looks like she is in her early teens. ”

Zhang Shengqi said: "The little one remembers that the persimmon is sour and astringent, or it is sweet and greasy." Doesn't the girl eat all these flavors? ”

"This one is so delicious! When it's a while, you'll know when you taste it. ”

Gu Yao didn't say much to him, and started to go to Xinghua Temple Hutong - she wanted to ask Shen Congjun how they settled down.

When he arrived at the private house, seeing that there was no one at home, Gu Yao remembered that Old Man Gu and Meng Xuan's uncle and nephew were originally scheduled to go to King Zhao's Mansion today. The master and servant had to go home.

Not long after, Ren Yazi led the eight little girls to arrive, but Gu Zhixian did not go down. After thinking about it, Gu Yao asked Hanxiang to invite Aunt Qin, and the two of them met with Renyazi.

Mother Lin came uninvited.

Under the guidance of Mother Lin, Aunt Qin picked a little girl with an ordinary appearance, thick palms, and a job at a glance, and named her Moxiang.

Gu Yao also picked a twelve-year-old girl and named her Leyan.

Regardless of this happy face, only one point, with a lot of experience with children. She raised three younger brothers in her family. Gu Yao picked her, and Mother Lin's heart burst out, and she hurriedly motioned for Aunt Qin to speak.

Aunt Qin said, "It's just a matter of adding one, why do you need to buy more?" ”

"I returned my aunt a maid, and the next one has nothing to do with my aunt." After speaking, Gu Yao said to Lin's mother again: "Although I am an old acquaintance with my mother, I still have to talk about ugly things in front of me, if my mother is as lazy as before, I will definitely get rid of you." ”

In addition, there is also Mrs. Xing in the kitchen. The porridge for breakfast today was overboiled, and when Gu Yao said a word, she dared to reply: "Lord Zhixian loves to eat what I made." ”

Gu Yao doesn't chase her, which one?

However, you always have to find the right person to move her.
