Chapter 64, Regulation of the State Government

Su Jinzhen was originally happy because of Aunt Wu's opening, but she was hit by Mother Wang's words, and she couldn't believe it, she was almost twelve years old, and she could discuss marriage in a year, so she also knew a little about women's dowry.

Her own mother was the daughter of the Wu family, and when she married as a concubine, didn't the Wu family give a dowry, even if the aunt went to the fifth room of the Guogong Mansion as a concubine, her grandfather's family did not have the status she has now, but she did not give a dowry at all, and her aunt was deeply favored by her late father over the years.

At this time, Su Jinzhen was dissatisfied with her biological mother's nurse Wang's mother, thinking that Wang's mother deliberately instigated her own mother not to buy her the jade face cream of Xianzifang, and at this time she had already begun to resent Wang's mother, poor Wang's mother was thinking about their mother and daughter, but now she was thankless and resented.

When Aunt Wu heard this, she also thought it was impossible, but looking at the embarrassed expression on her nurse's face, Aunt Wu swallowed the words that came to her mouth, and then asked Su Jinzhen to go back to the East Cross Courtyard first to wait for the news.

Su Jinzhen reluctantly went back to the East Cross Courtyard, she was very irritable, she knew that she was just a daughter, and she couldn't compare to her younger brother Su Jingchang, thinking that it was because of this reason that her aunt would sing red face and white face with the nurse next to her, just to not spend money on the jade cream for her.

However, being angry is angry, Su Jinzhen has no way, and it is impossible for her to take out a thousand taels of silver to buy the jade cream, she is just a concubine, and her monthly money is only ten taels of silver, even if you don't eat or drink, and don't buy anything, you have to save it for ten years to have a thousand taels!

Su Jinzhen resented Aunt Wu because of what happened in front of the mourning hall before, thinking that she was punished for being hungry that time, and now she has no money to buy jade face cream, all because of Aunt Wu, and at the same time she also hates Su Jingchang, her own brother.

After Su Jinzhen went back to the East Cross Courtyard, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and she couldn't stay in her own room anymore, so she simply went out directly, she was going to go to the front to find her grandmother and sixth aunt in the West Cross Courtyard of Tingfeng Hall·······

On the Xie side, the Xie family talked to the three Su Jinyan sisters and Su Jingye for a while, and after asking about Su Jingye's studies, he thought that there was still half a month before the next monthly payment, so he gave each of them a silver ticket of one hundred taels as the pocket money of Su Jinyan and the four of them.

Of course, Xie Shi also said in front of Su Jinchu and Su Jingye that Su Jinyan had bought a box of jade cream and gave it to Su Chun, and Xie gave Su Jinyan the one thousand taels of silver he said before in front of the three of them.

Su Jinchu is already thirteen years old, and he will be fourteen years old in this year, and he has already taken care of his own industry with Xie in this year, and he didn't take it to heart the one thousand taels that Xie gave Su Jinyan's sister.

Su Jingui, who is still young, and Su Jingye, who has just become a sister-in-law, the silver money in their hands is now in charge of the nurse next to them, and the two of them don't have much place to use money, so the two of them don't have any uncomfortable mood, and Xie Shi said very clearly, it was as Su Jinyan bought jade cream to Su Chun, Xie made up for it, and Xie also said that in the future, if they used their private money to buy gifts for the elders, as long as she knew the situation, she would give them the silver·······

Xie's is the best, perhaps because she has silver in her hand, so she will never treat her daughter harshly, and for those aunts who have no dowry and only five or six taels of silver a month, even if they want to give their children some pocket money, there is no way.

For example, Aunt Liu, the biological mother of Su Jingfan, the concubine of the Su family's fifth room, was originally born as a maid by the Xie family, and she didn't have any money-making Zhuangzi shop or anything, and she didn't have a hundred taels of silver all year round, even if she wanted to give her son some pocket money, there was no way.

Guogong Mansion, from the big house to the ninth room, everyone's monthly money is just a little bit every month, unless they have a dowry brought from their mother's family or something, or there is a shop Zhuangzi or something, this may still have some silver money saved, and if there is no of these, there is only a little bit of monthly money to live!

Xie is also more generous among the ladies of the Su family's house, the concubine is twelve taels a month ago, the concubine is ten taels, and the aunts are also six taels, if it is replaced by a few rooms from other concubines, the concubine is only ten taels, the concubine is eight taels, and the aunt is only five taels of silver.

As for the big house and the four rooms and six rooms, the concubine room is another concept, but it is on par with the concubine room given by the Xie family to the five rooms.

In addition to these, the concubine and the concubine make two sets of clothes every quarter, and the aunt makes one set, if you want more things, then you have to pay for it yourself, or get a reward or something·······

As for the wives of each room who are the main room, as well as the sons and daughters of the main room, those are two concepts, the annual silver money of each room or something, which is given to the young lady of the main room at the beginning of the year, and each room is 3,000 taels a year, and the concubine is 2,000 taels.

The money given at the beginning of this year is the other living expenses of each room all year round in addition to eating, if this is to give favors or something, then you have to save money, and even use your wife's dowry or something!

For a few rooms, two thousand taels a year is just enough, like the five rooms and seven rooms of the concubines, there are many concubines, and even at the end of the year, sometimes you have to do the main room upside down and paste some silver into it, for the people in the few rooms, three thousand taels of silver a year is enough!

The rules of the Guogong Mansion are like this, the identity of the concubine is higher than that of the concubine, not only the Su family of the Pingguo Mansion, but the entire Dashun Dynasty is like this, and the concubine of the Pingguo Mansion is still good, and the identity of the concubine of other families is very low, either to manage the business of the family or something, or to be a petty official of six or seven grades, or to marry a poor man, or to be a concubine.

The people who have a few rooms in the Guogong Mansion, among them, Su Minghua, who has died, is from the official position of the fourth grade, if this does not encounter accidents, he may become a third-grade official and a second-grade official in the future, and even a first-rank official is unknown.

There are also the concubines of the Guogong Mansion, take Su Chun, the youngest daughter of the Guogong Su Yao, for example, this concubine can be the princess of the county for a county king, which is something that no number of concubines can't ask for·······
