Finally arrived at the meal, and Ruotang, who was hungry with her chest against her back, was about to ask someone to go to the kitchen to pick up the food - just kidding, if she missed a meal of five hundred taels, she would be a mallet!

Always look at how the five hundred taels are spent, and it is good to increase your knowledge.

As a result, the meal had not been delivered yet, so the bookkeeper came first.

The bookkeeper with two goatees said with a bitter face: "Niangniang, there is no silver in the public school. ”

Ruotang's face was more bitter than his: "Are you kidding me?" ”

There is a huge Hunan Palace, and she only threw out a few thousand taels of silver in the morning, so there is no more?

"Where do minions dare to joke with you." Butler Yu handed the account book in his hand to Ruotang respectfully with both hands, "Don't hide it from Niangniang, if it weren't for the side concubine Niangniang to open up the source and save the money for the house in the past few years, I'm afraid that the house won't even be able to open the pot." ”

Ruotang only glanced at the thick brick-like account book, "The prince's fortune can't support these people in the palace?" ”

It's good, I only dared to run over and cry with her for half a day.

Steward Yu's lean bitter gourd face became even more bitter, "Niangniang, look, the prince's age is 10,000 silver, and Lu rice is 10,000 hu. At the beginning of this year, the silver that had just been distributed, the prince bought the big black that had just been bitten to death by Ah Bai in the beast garden, and it would be 10,000 taels. And when Lu Mi was also distributed, he returned 5,000 Hu to the prince of Jin. In the past few years, the prince has spent money lavishly, and we have long been unable to make ends meet. Niangniang, if you have any more money, don't go to the minions, the minions really can't get the money. ”

He said, shaking his head dissatisfied.

This forced her to make up for it with her own money. Ruotang snorted coldly in his heart, but his face was terrified, "In this way, the Xiangwang Mansion is an empty shell?" ”

"Yes, there really isn't any silver in the house."

"How is that good? No one told me that the palace had reached such a point. Ruotang gritted his teeth, and said ruthlessly: "I don't have any cash in my hand, but don't be too anxious, I'll send a message to my mother's family, so that my father will take over the palace first, and I'll talk about it later." ”

Steward Yu blurted out, "How can this work?" ”

Ruotang blinked puzzled, "Why not?" ”

"Niangniang, this kind of thing has been known to outsiders, what do you want to think of our prince, the prince is a good-looking person, if he knows that Niangniang, you ask your mother's family for help, this matter will spread again, how can the prince have the face to go out to meet people in the future." Steward Yu analyzed bitterly, "Niangniang, you must think twice, if you anger the prince because of this matter, it will be even worse." ”

"Outsiders?" Ruotang blinked again, "Is my mother's father an outsider?" ”

"So, the so-called marriage and husband, Niangniang, you should discuss with the prince first and then make a decision." Butler Yu persuaded again.

"Oh." Ruotang is as good as a stream, "I don't know where the prince is now?" ”

"The prince went out early in the morning, and he hasn't returned home yet."

"In that case, when the prince returns, I will consult with him. Anything else? ”

Steward Yu hesitated for a while, "There is a saying, slaves don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Don't say you're still a fart!

Ruotang rolled his eyes in his heart, but his mouth was very polite: "Say it." ”

"Then the minion is offended." Butler Yu clenched his fists to Ruotang and confessed his guilt, and then said in a frustrated voice: "The prince handed over the mansion to the princess, which means trusting the princess." The so-called virtuous helper is to be able to take care of all the affairs of the house well, so that the male owner of the family has no internal worries. On the first day you were in charge of the family, you asked the prince for everything...... The minions think it's quite inappropriate! ”

After that, he sighed very worriedly.

Ruotang looked more and more thoughtless: "Then in your opinion, what should you do?" ”

"If the mother can solve the problems for the prince by herself, the prince will only respect you more in his heart." After that, his eyes glanced at the cage that had not yet had time to be packed in the room, intentionally or unintentionally.

Ruotang smiled angrily, speaking of which, it was still the idea of her dowry. I don't know if it's Chu Pervert or Concubine Deng on the tip of his heart who is behind the idea.

"You're right, I know what to do, go down." Ruotang said perfunctorily and drove the people away.

If you want to touch her dowry, there are no windows!

……

The chaos of the Qingqiu Courtyard reached the ears of Concubine Deng, who was lying on the bed and couldn't move.

Zidai just fed her the medicine and brought a delicate little saucer, "Niangniang, you use a candied fruit to get rid of the taste in your mouth." ”

Concubine Deng shook her head, "No." ”

"That medicine is bitter, Niangniang, no matter how unhappy you are, you can't get along with yourself." Zi Dai persuaded anxiously.

"Is it bitter?" Concubine Deng's expression was faint, "Compared to ...... This bit of bitterness is nothing. ”

is more faceless than being reprimanded by the prince in public, compared to being scolded by the prince with a rod in public, and compared to being ordered by the prince to hand over the palace and lose face...... Where is this bit of bitterness?

How did Zi Dai not understand Concubine Deng's thoughts, tears fell when she heard this, and she gritted her teeth and said, "How can the prince do this to you?" How many things have you done for the palace over the years, and if it weren't for you, would the palace be so orderly? Look at that one, what kind of family is in charge of what? Qiu's mother-in-law, the thief, asked her for five hundred taels to buy the ingredients for today's lunch, and she really gave it. At the beginning of this one, everyone rushed over to ask for money and things, and the lowly thing in Liufangyuan dared to fish in troubled waters. The silver flowed out as if it were not silver...... All the money you saved from your thrifty housekeeping on weekdays, she was good, and she gave it all out as soon as she let go of her hand. ”

How many families are in the palace, even if Zi Dai doesn't know the exact number, she still has an account in her heart. The prince's food and good land shop are in the hands of Concubine Deng, who is a good businessman, and it is like a snowball. It is not only the little hair that the princess scattered in the morning. However, Zi Dai knew in her heart that no matter how small the hair, in Concubine Deng's heart, it was all hers. Zi Dai would say this because she knew that Concubine Deng liked to hear her say so.

Concubine Deng listened expressionlessly, "You just have to write down these people for me, how much you are greedy, you will spit them all out for me at that time!" ”

"Yes." Zidai hurriedly responded, "Then, let's not care about anything?" ”

"What's the matter?" Concubine Deng sneered, "Now that she is in charge, she is the one who should have a headache, why should I care." Let's just keep our eyes open and watch the play, I want to see when her dowry will be finished. By the way, what happened to those two sluts? ”

When it comes to the Qin family and the Liu family, Concubine Deng's beautiful eyes are full of haze and resentment!

If it weren't for these two stupid women, how could she end up like this!

Shen Ruotang is hateful, and the two of them are even more hateful!

"They haven't stopped, from time to time they want to go east and west, so that the maid and the woman will block the princess, and they must hate the princess in their hearts."

"It's better to hate." Concubine Deng smiled coldly, "Let's settle this account slowly." ”

……

Cai Qing, who was originally happy that her master could finally be the housewife, finally repented deeply after listening to the endless dramas asking for money in the palace all morning.

She was wrong, she was really wrong, whether it was a master or a slave in this palace, they were all greedy ghosts who ate people and didn't spit out bones! Her master's thin skin and tender flesh are easy to be gnawed to the point that there is no residue left.

How could she think that everything would be fine if the master was in charge?

Cai Qing tearfully looked at Ruotang, who began to doze off in the middle of eating, and hurriedly woke her up when she almost plunged into the soup: "Girl, be careful." ”

Ruotang was frightened by her roar, and a spirit came to his senses, "Hmm, what's wrong?" ”

"The slave has finished eating." Cai Qing glanced at the tray placed in front of her, and blushed with shame. She was so angry that she turned her grief and anger into food, and actually used two bowls of rice, three dishes, and one soup.

"Are you full? Not full of it. Ruotang cheered up, but his eyelids still fell involuntarily.

"When you're full, girl, eat more." Cai Qing said with concern, and blamed herself so much, "If only the slave and maid were not injured, they would be able to share your worries and solve problems, and it would not be so difficult for you to be alone." ”

"Then heal your injuries quickly, so that you can help me solve my worries." Ruotang smiled.

Cai Qing bit her lip, "Girl, otherwise you would have quit this errand." ”

"How?" Ruotang raised his eyebrows at her in surprise.

But her heart is happy, she is so hard and difficult, just to let Cai Qing see clearly, so that she will not be a housewife in the future.

"You've worked so hard." The most important thing is that the master is not this piece of material at all!

If you really want to continue to be in charge, it's no wonder that the dowry that you finally want to come back is not fully compensated.

"Did you understand what the bookkeeper said just now?"

Of course I understand it. "He advised me not to tell the prince about the difficulties in front of me, because if I solved these urgent problems by myself, the prince would look at me differently—is that what he meant? Actually, it's not that difficult, anyway, my mother's dowry is very large, and I can support these people in the palace casually......"

Cai Qing could hear a cold sweat, and his anxious tone changed, "No!" ”

"What's not going to work?" Ruotang teased her.

Cai Qing crackled and poured beans into the bamboo tube and said quickly, "How can you use the dowry of Mrs. Xian to support these slave sluts in the palace?" Girl, you listen to the slave and maid, you can't have such thoughts, if you don't fatten the courage and appetite of these people, girl, you have mountains of gold and silver, and you have to be swallowed up by all these greedy things! You and the master tore their faces before they got back the dowry of the first lady, how can these things be cheap for nothing? Girl, we don't deserve this house, we can't be it! You, you pretend to be sick. ”

"Faking illness?" Ruotang frowned, embarrassed: "This is not good." ”

Cai Qingxiong made a high-spirited decision to say: "There's nothing wrong with it, girl, you just close the door of the hospital and pretend to be sick!" ”
