Chapter 233: Silver
What does Concubine Wei think? Wu asked with a smile.
Shen Xiu smiled silently, and when she proposed to go to the flower hall, she expected the current direction.
Wei Ling is too arrogant, and the Wu family will not let go of such an opportunity. Take turns to be the banker, and the Wei sisters can't afford to play.
"The princess of the county is the main room of the prince, and she takes turns with us, you don't care." Wei Ling said with a smile, but gritted his teeth angrily in his heart.
Shen Xiu called all the people, and set up a banquet and called the servants, which seemed to be warmly entertained, but in fact, it was to make the Wu family propose so.
She has no money, even if the concubine's months are rich, she can't compare to Shen Xiu and the Wu family.
Using this method to humiliate her, although the teeth of hatred are itching, there is nothing to be done.
"Sisters, why bother to divide it so clearly." Wu said with a smile, "Isn't Concubine Wei thinking so, I have never cared too much about the memory of wives and concubines." ”
Wei Ling pursed her lips and considered her refusal.
"Can't Concubine Wei afford to play?" Wu pressed step by step, "No, you are a side concubine, and you are in charge of the princess." If the sisters can't afford to take turns to entertain them, wouldn't they make the next people laugh. ”
Shen Xiu felt that it was almost over, pushed the fire again, and said apologetically: "Originally, it was rare for the sisters to get together, so I just wanted to join in the fun." Unexpectedly, it turned out to be ...... Forget it, forget it, let's listen to the play and sing. ”
"Okay, let's take turns to be the east." Wei Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Today is Concubine Shen's, next time it's mine, and finally it's the princess of the county, how about it?" ”
Although Wei Yu was a little ignorant, she still knew the price. Such a banquet, if held on a regular basis, can cost a lot. I couldn't help but say: "The princess of the county ......"
Wei Ling knew what Wei Yu would say, so she hurriedly said, "Forget about Mrs. and aunt, just follow along." ”
"As it should be." Wu smiled and said, "Then the ten-day period, the first, tenth, and twentieth days of the new year will be held regularly." Today, Concubine Shen is considered to be the first day of the new year, and we will go to Linglong Pavilion on the tenth day of the new year, and I will be in the warm incense dock for twenty years. ”
Letting Wei Ling cut her flesh once a month was enough for her to be uncomfortable.
"Okay." Wei Ling said.
Shen Xiu said: "Obey the arrangement of the princess of the county." ”
"Then it's decided." Wu said with a smile, and said to everyone: "Everyone must remember the day, don't miss it." ”
"Yes." Nian Ruolan responded first.
She was originally a little transparent who had no desires, and she usually talked to Wu.
Now there is such a regular party, and she doesn't have to pay for it, there is food and play, and it is not bad for her to follow along.
The feelings of the two sisters, Ye Fu and Ye Wei, were much more complicated, but when the three giants decided something, where did they dare to resist, they also responded.
Although Wei Yu wanted to say that their sisters had no money, Wei Ling had already agreed, and she didn't dare to say anything more.
"Okay, it's not boring to have this party." Wu said with a smile.
Shen Xiu smiled and said, "Yes." ”
A tearing conference in ten days is indeed not boring.
After playing and singing six or seven songs, in addition to refreshments, Yin'er let the kitchen rush to make exquisite side dishes.
After making such a fuss until dinnertime, Wu said with a smile: "After eating and drinking like this for an afternoon, I don't need to eat dinner." ”
"It's good if the sisters are happy." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
The kitchen keeps cooking, the table keeps up, and even if you can't finish eating, you have to put it on the table.
"Happy, really happy." Wu said with a smile.
Wei Ling said directly: "Let's stop here today, the prince will come over in a while, and we won't disturb Concubine Shen." ”
"yes, it's time to go back after an afternoon of trouble." Wu said with a smile and stood up first.
Everyone also got up, and Shen Xiu sent the guests to the door.
The chief manager of the king had already ordered someone to summon a soft sedan chair for the masters to go back.
"It's really hard today, Concubine Shen." Wu said with a smile.
Shen Xiu smiled and said, "It's good that the sisters are happy." ”
After a few polite words, everyone went back in a soft sedan chair, and Shen Xiu also turned around and went back to the house.
It's lively for most of the day, listening to the excitement of playing and singing, and it's really fun to make a fuss once in the next ten days.
Back in the house, the little girl stepped forward to wash her face and change her clothes, and Shen Xiu sat on the couch to rest.
Shen Xiu looked at Yin'er and Linlang beside him, and said with a smile: "You guys have also worked hard." ”
Suddenly, she sat on the table, and many things were not easy to arrange.
Although Mr. Wang understands the process and is busy, it is Yin'er and Linlang who are the personal attendants.
The first time they experienced such a scene, both of them were very clever, whether it was the things on the table or the arrangement of various activities, they were very suitable.
"It's all the slaves' business." Yin'er smiled and said, "The side concubine has also worked hard." ”
The agent is not tired, but he is still tired.
The main battle sides are Wu and Wei Ling, and Shen is responsible for turning the fire.
Nian Ruolan makes soy sauce, as long as she eats a lot, she definitely doesn't have to eat dinner.
Wei Yu had the heart to help her sister, but her brain couldn't keep up and she couldn't answer.
As for the two sisters, Ye Fu and Ye Wei, they only trembled. Little brothers like Ye Fu and Ye Wei can only be a little dog leg at most, and they are useless at the critical moment.
"It's fine." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
Manager Wang cleaned up the flower hall, and also went back to the main room to repeat his life, and said: "Qi Yu concubine, the flower hall has been cleaned up." ”
"Well, I've worked hard for you today." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
Manager Wang smiled and said, "It's all a matter of slaves." ”
Shen Xiu smiled indifferently, this is indeed a matter for Mr. Wang, if he can't even take care of this little thing, Mr. Wang can really go home, and asked, "How much money did you spend on today's banquet?" ”
"Excluding the twenty taels that rewarded the servants, a total of thirty-five taels and three dollars were spent." Mr. Wang said.
Although the servant is from the Yanwang Mansion, he is privately summoned to give a routine reward, two taels per person, and the price is almost clearly marked.
There are also snacks and meals made in the kitchen, which are not included in the example, and the master must do it, and the kitchen must not be subsidized, and the money must also be counted.
Tea, wine, and incense consumption at the time all had to be counted as money.
Thirty-five two three lines, such a banquet, is not much.
"Hmm." Shen Xiu responded gently, and said to herself a little: "This amount of money is enough for Concubine Wei to be sad." ”
The monthly case of the side concubine is twenty taels per month. In addition, clothing, food, housing and transportation, the palace has its own rules, if you are not picky, one person will not be able to eat.
It's just that the palace lives, and if you want to live well, you must subsidize it yourself.
Wei Ling is so strong, she has always wanted to hold power in her hands, and there are more places to spend money.
These twenty taels, she may not be enough herself. Now adding such an expense every month will definitely give me a headache.
"Actually, today is the first one, and the kitchen is not prepared." Manager Wang said, "A hundred taels of silver is not difficult at all. ”
The key to the table is the ingredients, and what is given to the servant is a fixed number.
Next time, I have preparations, all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, not to mention one hundred taels, two hundred taels can be done.
Shen Xiu has money, if he wants to make Wei Ling ugly from money, he can come up with a hundred ways.
"Forget it, if there is a princess of the county, I won't follow." Shen Xiu smiled and said, "It's not good to be too hateful." ”
A ruthless character like Wei Ling can't push people too hard.
The rabbit bites when he is in a hurry, not to mention that Wei Ling is a wolf.
Today, Wei Ling wanted to push it off, but he was squeezed by the Wu family, and he was afraid that he would stab the Wu family to death.
"The side concubine is thoughtful." Manager Wang said with a smile, "The next thing is the princess of the county, and it's good for the side concubine to follow." ”
The next one is Wei Ling's office, and following Shen Xiu's standards can be regarded as compliant.
The next end is Wu's office, if she increases the weight, Shen Xiu will follow, and the Wu family will not hate Shen Xiu, and will only target the Wu family first.
"Concubine Wei, she is too arrogant." Shen Xiu said with a smile, and then waved his hand and said, "You are also tired for a long time, go back and rest." ”
Wu's handling of things is very tactful, under normal circumstances, she is not happy with Wei Ling, and it will not be like this.
But Wei Ling was really arrogant, and when he saw the Wu family, he couldn't even give a salute, and the Wu family couldn't swallow this breath.
"Yes." The king responded, bowed and withdrew.
When Manager Wang went out and left, Shen Xiu called Yin'er and ordered in a low voice: "You go to see Yu Yongzhao tomorrow morning and ask him to pay attention to Concubine Wei's movements outside." ”
Wei Ling is not a person who sits idly by, she is about to make ends meet, and she can't pawn her clothes to survive.
If she can't find any money in the house, she will definitely find a way to find money outside.
If you grasp it well, it will become an opportunity to bring down Wei Ling.
"Yes, the slave has written it down." The sound is whispered.
Wei Ling and Wei Yu sisters walked together, Wei Yu returned to the Algae Garden, and Wei Ling returned to Linglong Pavilion.
Back in his room, Wei Ling's face almost collapsed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Sooner or later, you will all have to die in my hands." ”
Especially the Wu family, who simply forced her.
"Concubine ......" The maid didn't know what to say, "Let's change clothes first." ”
"Hmph." Wei Ling snorted coldly, but stretched out her hand and asked the girls to wait for a change of clothes.
As soon as he took off his coat, he saw Wei Yu come in with a small baggage.
"What are you going to do?" Wei Ling frowned and said, "It's been an afternoon, I'm tired, you can go back." ”
"I ......" Wei Yu was a little afraid of Wei Ling, but he opened the small baggage, which contained some broken silver and jewelry, and said: "This is my savings, my sister will use it first." ”
Madame's monthly money is five taels of silver, and she has always eaten a portion. Although the Wei family was short of money, she gave her mother some and saved some in the past few months.
The jewelry was issued in the house, and she didn't wear it much.
Now that Wei Ling is short of money, she must use it for her first.
"You ......" Wei Ling wanted to scold her a few words, but looking at the broken silver and jewelry in the baggage, she suddenly felt that she couldn't scold.
Although it is not much, it has been all saved by Wei Yu after entering the mansion.
"Sister, let's take it first." Wei Yu said, "The matter of silver, slowly figure it out." ”
"Not yours." Wei Ling said, stepped forward to pack up the baggage, and stuffed it to Wei Yu, "Take it back to your house." ”
"But, sister......" Wei Yu wanted to say more.
Wei Ling said: "I have my own way, I don't need you." ”
Wei Yu looked at Wei Ling suspiciously, and the silver couldn't be conjured out of thin air.
"I said, I have my own way." Wei Ling said again.
