289 is a little poor
After Su's funeral, the sky became gloomy day by day, and it was already the beginning of the lunar month, and after more than half a month, it would be the New Year. And every year in the lunar month is also the time when the Zhuangzi shops everywhere pay the annual offering, the palace began to be full of people, and the Mei family was busy handing over the money and things, so it was avoided for a few days in the morning and dusk. The wealth of the palace is shared in each house, and Liuli is a long house, I thought that there was labor to get her little *** place, but I didn't expect Mei's to let her get close, and Wu Zhong wanted to take over all the rent and annual payments handed over below, and the matter of selecting a maid to send to Chaoqingtang could only be postponed for the time being, so in the past few days, Liuli also stayed in Chaoqingtang to deal with her own affairs.
In fact, she is not idle. Ji Xiaoquan has already come twice from Da Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs, saying that he wants Liuli to take time to check the account book, so that he can prepare to send things over. On the second day after coming back from the red sleeves, she asked Ji Xiaoquan to recruit Lai Wu and his wife, yes, this year it made a profit of 10,700 taels, although it doesn't seem to be much, but Lai Wu and they took over the new way, and after Wang Er Mazi made a fuss before, it has made Liuli very satisfied with this amount.
The two shops rented out have a fixed amount of rent every year, a total of 500 taels per month, and Ji Xiaoquan will collect them on a quarterly basis. And because of their own business, it took two days to take stock and liquidate, and it was the eighth day of the lunar month when the account book and silver came, and Liuli specially let them stay and eat Laba porridge. After the meal, I calculated that there were nearly 5,000 taels leftover.
In this way, she earned 22,000 taels of silver this year. Excluding some necessary expenses at hand, such as the salaries of the employees and the private expenses in the next year's budget, there are still 12,000 taels left. In addition to the 3,000 taels from the sale of words this year, more than 10,000 taels of silver fell into the pocket.
And then there is Qi Yunhao's family background. This time, I finally saw the total number of Grange shops, and just looking at those names, Liuli was a little dazzled. As a relative of the royal family, Mrs. Ye's dowry is of course only more than that of Liuli. There are two fields like Da Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs alone. There are also some slightly smaller Zhuangzi four or five. There are also three or four shops, and two houses, which are not counted because they are empty and not profitable.
Pray for less of his own. After all, I haven't been in Beijing for so many years, and the food is only enough for food and clothing. Now I also have a four-entry house in my hand. It was given by the emperor after being named the general of Zhenguo, and there were two Zhuangzi, which were also rewarded. The two shops he had bought in the past two years and rented them out.
Liuli calculated, Qi Yunhao's total income added up to 55,800 taels, minus the budget expenditure for the next year, there is still a net remaining 34,000 taels. According to the fact that they eat the king's house now, they will use the king's house. That's a lot of money. You must know that if it weren't for Mrs. Ye's dowry industry, the income under the name of Qi Yunhao alone would be more than 10,000 taels. For a general of the second grade, this is not a considerable family business at all.
Of course. If Qi Yunhao has no plans to live in another house, then there is no need to worry, there is more property handed down by the ancestors of Qi Fu, and then there is some property obtained by King Dingbei in the war over the years, as the son and wife of the prince. What has been inherited is the majority. But if they lived separately, it would be different, and they would have to wait until the old man died to divide the family, and then the property would have their share.
And the Mei family has their own son, so they will naturally live with Qi Yunjing and them. In this case, when the long house is vacant, the second and third rooms will bear the responsibility of providing for the elderly, and they will naturally not move out of the palace, so that the family members of the palace will become the heirs of the Mei family, and most of the property will be distributed to them - of course, Qi Yunhao will not care about these, and Liuli does not care, the things in the palace have not been counted by her in her own property, saying that these are many, but because the king of Dingbei looks very strong, he can live for at least another one or two decades, and Qi Yunhao is eager to move out of the house immediately, In the future, if the family is suddenly separated, then they will have to take out their own money to supply the expenses of the entire Great General's Mansion, as well as personal contacts or something, just relying on 30,000 taels of silver per year, daily expenses are enough, where can they save money? But if you don't save money in hand, where can you have the bottom of your life?
Since he was worried about money in He Mansion, Liuli also began to worry about this. When Qi Yunhao came back at night, she was holding the account book and worrying.
"Is there anything wrong with this year's account?" He asked.
She sighed, "It's fine, but apparently we're a little poor." ”
Qi Yunhao was stunned, he really hadn't thought about money, and he was a little confused, but as a man, how could he make his wife worry about money? So he said, "If it's not enough, starting next month, I'll hand it over to you." ”
Liuli looked at him in front of him, and suddenly felt that no matter how strong and capable a man is, he will have a weakness somewhere. "General, you only have enough money every month to set up a few tables of good tables, even if you give it to me, where is it enough to make up for it?" As he spoke, he told him a series of problems arising from his desire to live in another mansion, and then said: "I have looked at the account books handed in below in recent years, and the annual profits are comparable. ”
Qi Yunhao pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look at her, and said, "You think so carefully, you must have some idea." ”
Liuli grinned, threw herself on his back, and wrapped her arms around his neck: "The general is so smart! I've thought about it, Mrs.'s shops and Zhuangzi are actually making money, but there is a lack of people to take care of them, so they have not expanded their business over the years. ”
Qi Yunhao smiled and said: "The money is all there, you have the idea of what you want to do, why play these tricks with me?" ”
Liuli said: "I always have to say hello to you." What if you need it urgently and I can't get it? ”
"No matter how urgent my affairs are, I am not as urgent as my family. You are in charge, you are in charge. ”
He was a little itchy by her breath, and after saying that, he pulled her from behind and bit her earlobe.
Ruri smiled and dodged, he simply put her down on the couch and kissed her carefully. Neither of them knew how long it had been since they had really been close, and Ruri gradually gave up pushing and shoving, wrapping her arms around his neck instead, and kissing him back on the forehead when he kissed her shoulder blades.
In the dead of night, when the boudoir whispered, Qi Yunhao got her response, and the desire was more obvious, the palm of his hand went all the way down to the destination, and he stroked it gently, Liuli couldn't help moaning, and his arms wrapped him tighter, and he wordlessly told the thirst in his body. And when he finally entered, her satisfied soft groan also greatly encouraged him, and it was the first time since they got married that the two of them had done it so heartily.
After passing the water and bathing, he wrapped her in a quilt and went to bed to rest.
I slept very soundly that night. When the fifth watch was praying for Yunhao to get up, Liuli was also confused to get up, he turned over and pressed her into the quilt, his palm touched the bare softness of her chest, and he coveted this wonderful touch, and swam around her entire body.
Originally, I just wanted to satisfy the feel, but unfortunately somewhere under the abdomen was raised in an instant, which is really annoying.
"General......" Ruri also felt it, muttering in her mouth, and nudging his chest with her palm. How seductive his voice sounded before he woke up, and it seemed that he was going to be late to-day, he leaned down and sighed and sucked at the blush, and as her restless writhing and the moans that overflowed from the bottom of her throat, the natural desire to conquer welled up again.
"Are you alright?"
After the wind and rain stopped, he turned over and stroked her on the side, and said softly.
Ruri's cheeks were red, and she leaned on his shoulders with exhaustion, "My whole body hurts." ”
He sighed and wrapped her in the quilt, "It's me who is bad. Not next time. ”
Liuli raised her lips and got up to kiss him on the lips: "But I'm also very happy." ”
He paused, smiled helplessly, and said, "Is that good or bad?" ”
She pursed her lips and just smiled.
He grinded his back teeth, wrapped his arms around her, and kissed her down.
This friction, the two of them didn't go out of the room until the hour, although in the end Qi Yunhao still let go of Liuli, but Rui'er waited outside the door for a long time, only to hear the low sound of dialogue from time to time, and the voice of Liuli coquettishly, as well as Qi Yunhao's persuasion, and did not dare to venture in.
When Liuli finally called people, as soon as they entered the door, the bedding and clothes scattered all over the bed still made them blush.
Ruri also blushed. Pretended to be casual and changed Qi Yunhao's clothes, and sent them to the gate of the courtyard and stopped sending them.
In fact, Rui'er is very happy for Liuli in her heart, since they quarreled, Qi Yunhao's actions have changed their initial dissatisfaction with him little by little, and now the two of them can be so harmonious, as they have accompanied Liuli all the way, there is no reason not to look forward to their good.
But based on the fact that there are still many things to be done in the future, Rui'er has bypassed this hurdle now, and the waiter Liuli has breakfast, so he directly replied to her: "The New Year's allowance on Zhuangzi will be delivered today." The affairs in the palace have been completed, and the general manager of Wu will bring people over in the morning. The saint's body is better, and the second master has also loosened up in the past few days, and from Ming'er, he will enter and exit the yamen on time. I still haven't spoken to the second grandmother in the past few days, but I heard that the second grandmother was told by Mrs. Mei once, and her attitude softened a little. ”
Liuli flipped through the list of annual offerings handed over from the Zhuangzi and said, "Go and prepare some cloth to reward money, and Lai Wu will come to them tomorrow." General Ming'er is in the mansion and asks him to bring someone after dinner. How did the second grandmother show favor to the second master? ”
