376 Unable to make ends meet

Gongsun Heng said goodbye to Situ Jin's uncle and nephew and rode back to the house, and when he went out, he met Gongsun Xi who was about to go out, nodded lightly and entered the door. Speaking of which, Gongsun Heng read the books in the palace, even his eldest brother who was a squire in the military department, but I don't know why this Gongsun Xi studied in the palace outside the palace.

Gongsun Heng can't say that he hates his younger brother, but he can't say how much he likes it, and he feels that Puyu is many times more pleasing than his younger brother today. The two brothers usually don't have any bad feelings, but it's not known how they feel about each other.

It's better to say that it's better to be a brother, but now that his princess sister-in-law is pregnant, there are a lot fewer times when he sees his eldest brother. Even every time he came out of the palace, he didn't always have the opportunity to see his busy big brother.

Gongsun Heng changed into civilian clothes, went to ask the old lady for peace first, and went to the Yu family to ask for peace quite resignedly. Usually, he doesn't come every day to ask for peace, most of the time he only comes once every few days, just a superficial phenomenon.

When they arrived at the door of the Yu family's room, only a few maids saw that the second master was coming, and immediately respectfully opened the curtains, and the clever little maid had already reported inside: "The second master is here." ”

The Yu family was also faint when he saw Gongsun Heng, and his face was naturally not as good as when he saw Gongsun Xi, but it was still more affectionate than rusty.

%None%Error%M. The lovely maid served the fragrant tea, and Gongsun Heng said: "Mother's body is so neat? Heng'er has been busy with affairs lately, and she can't find time to say hello to her mother. It's not like Xi'er can be under her mother's knees all day long. This is naturally a mockery of Gongsun Xi who doesn't have a serious errand, and only knows how to read every day.

Only the Yu family couldn't hear it, even if the old lady in front of her heard it, she didn't dare to chew the root of her tongue in front of the Yu family. Who knows how many of the maids who serve the Yu family are old ladies, and besides, the old lady is used to seeing those fights, although she is not looking down on her own master's innocence, but the second master who said this naturally did not dare to make a mistake. And because the Yu clan couldn't hear it, they thought it was just a superficial statement.

"Heng'er is busy, but she needs to pay attention to her body. Now that my illness is also cured, the old lady is still looking for a virtuous and virtuous daughter-in-law for Heng'er. Yu Shi smiled with his handkerchief and said.

Gongsun Heng had heard the old lady talk about this since years ago, and now when he heard Yu talk about it, he didn't know what it was like. His face was not obvious, and he said: "Today, Heng'er came back from the palace and met my cousin Situ, who asked my mother how she was doing. ”

When Yu Shi heard this, the hand holding the handkerchief stiffened, and after a while, he hid his face and sobbed, and he was very delicate. "It's my cousin's red face and thin life, and now it's been many years, and I, as a cousin, only now know that I feel sad. I wonder if my nephew is okay? ”

He couldn't be better...... Gongsun Heng took a sip of tea and said with a chuckle: "Naturally, it's good, and my mother doesn't have to be too sad, after all, it's a deep sisterly love in person, and now that I haven't seen it for many years, my feelings are light." If my mother is so sad, it will be very bad to hurt her body. After speaking, he was about to get up and say goodbye, "The mother is so childlike, Heng'er has retired." ”

When Gongsun Heng went out, Yu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, twisted his handkerchief and frowned, his beautiful eyes were sad. "Mama, you say, will my cousin blame me, it's also that I still boast of my sisterhood over the years, even if my cousin went, I didn't know, she will definitely not forgive me."

Mama persuaded her: "Madame is at ease, now few people in Shangjing know, Xu is Xiangye doesn't want others to know." It's Mrs. Xiangye who knows that Mrs. is still thinking about it all these years, so she is naturally happy, and Mrs. is relieved. ”

"Is that really the case?" Yu Shi pulled Mama's sleeve, frowned on the two willow leaves, frowned with sadness, and said softly with a surprised expression on his face.

"It's true." Mama followed her words and persuaded her.

Yu really nodded, "That's good, it's better to wait until tomorrow to go to the temple to burn a few pillars of incense for my cousin, so that I can feel more at ease." ”

"Okay, I'll tell you to go down and let the people below prepare." Mama helped Yu to sit aside and answered.

Chen's house

Since Chen Lin began to learn housekeeping, according to her intelligence, she naturally found that there were many bad debts on the outer account, and she also felt that the house had begun to make ends meet. Originally, she could have consulted with Situ, but now that Situ was sick and lying on the bed, Chen Lin couldn't bother her mother to recuperate. Now I can only find He Tian's family to ask the reason, He Tian's family is busy: "Last year's shop harvest was not very good, even the income of the suburbs in Zhuangzi was not as good as in previous years, even fifty percent could not catch up." Now the uncle's personal affairs are about to arrive, and everything is made with silver. ”

Chen Lin rubbed her eyebrows with a little headache, thinking that her sister was still in charge of the family's accounts, so she asked, "Sister Lan, have you ever asked for an account?" ”

The Tao of the Ho Tian family; "No, I haven't." Seeing that Chen Lin was puzzled, she withdrew the maids left and right and said to Chen Lin: "The old lady only said that the two girls should take care of the accounts, and did not specifically say which ones to manage. The girl didn't know that there was also an inner account in the house, which had always been managed by the old lady. Xu is the second girl is in charge of this inner account, and the matter of this inner account naturally cannot be found by slaves and maids. ”

Chen Lin was puzzled, she had never heard of this internal account, she had never been a housekeeper originally, but now she has been a housekeeper for a few days, and it is normal that she has not heard of it. At first glance, when I heard He Tian's family say this, I went on to ask a lot about this internal account.

After listening to this, she rubbed her eyebrows, Chen Lin looked at the broken account book, and her beautiful eyes were worried: "Mama has been with her mother for so many years, have you ever known that if there is such a situation in the account that she can't make ends meet, how will her mother deal with it?" Mama also knows that I am just a girl's family, and it has only been a matter of these two years to learn housekeeping, but in terms of experience, I am naturally not as good as Mama. ”

He Tian's family was busy and said that he didn't dare, and naturally understood in his heart that this eldest girl was the biological son of his wife, and naturally he was not comparable to the one who was born. She asked so, and He Tian's family didn't dare to cheat, so she said: "In the past, there were not many such situations, and if there was a lady, she would pawn some of her dowry to make up for it." "The pawn is not fake, but the pawn is not Situ's dowry. For so long, Situ's housekeeper not only did not hold the dowry tightly, but Situ set up various names and came back with a lot of money. Naturally, the He Tian family was not good at saying this to Chen Lin, so they only said that the Situ family pawned their dowry to make up for the gap.

Now Chen Lin is still Yunying's unmarried girl, although she has no dowry, but she naturally has a private house around her, and the old lady rewards her on weekdays, and Situ's naturally gives some. However, He Tian's family said: "Girl, now that the girl is the first housekeeper, naturally there is no pawn, so it is better to sue the old lady and let the old lady give the girl some pointers." ”

Chen Lin thought about it for a while, and naturally felt that what He Tian's family said was reasonable, so he rewarded He Tian's family, and he went to the old lady to seek attention.

Although the old lady is old, she is not confused, and the affairs of the inner courtyard are clearly known, and now she proposes to let the two granddaughters take care of the housekeeper, on the one hand, the relationship between the two granddaughters is about to get married, and on the other hand, she is not very satisfied because of Situ's reasons. Ever since Chen Gui was preparing for the Spring Festival, Situ used the power of the housekeeper to raise Chen Gui's treatment specifications to be the same as the old lady, or even higher than the old lady. In addition to all the vegetables in the world, I eat them every day and eat them in different ways. Every day, bird's nest, ginseng and other nourishing supplements are sent to Chen Gui like no money. Naturally, she couldn't hide these things from the eyes in the house, and she didn't want to hide it from Situ at that time. In her mind, as long as Chen Gui is in high school, everyone naturally has nothing to say. Who would have thought that Chen Gui would fall to Sun Shan later, and he would fall ill for a while, the old lady used to look at the faces of several grandchildren, and turned a blind eye to Situ's family, but now Situ's is a little arrogant, so naturally he has to beat it well, it is with this that Chen Lin and Chen Lan two sisters came out as housekeepers, who expected that Situ really got sick with wind and cold. Chen Gui's wind and cold here are not good, and in the blink of an eye, Situ is also sick, and the affairs in the house are naturally very busy, not to mention such a big event as Chen Gui is going to marry in March, that is, the miscellaneous things next to the mansion have to be such a charter, which thing can be done without silver

Chen Lan is naturally tolerant, and now she has taken the initiative to give up most of the housekeeping rights, if the old lady or Mrs. asks in the future, she will naturally not be able to find her. In this mansion, she can see some clues when she looks at it coldly, not to mention that she still grew up with the old lady. and Chen Fang is still her younger brother, although the two did not grow up together, but it will not affect the relationship between the sister and brother. Now that Chen Fang has a future, Aunt Zhou has been honest and gentle in the past few years, compared with Situ's old-fashioned and incomprehensible customs, it is natural that Master Chen is more happy, not to mention that Aunt Zhou also gave birth to a son and a daughter to Master Chen.

Chen Lin asked the old lady, and the old lady naturally couldn't ignore it, so she took the silver money from the private treasury to fill the hole, but she didn't like it in her heart, but she didn't say anything.
