Chapter 33: The first encounter to buy a carriage

"After a few years of mixing in the Gentiles, you learned such an ignorance of etiquette?" Lamei is a first-class maid, and her upbringing is far inferior to that of the official lady, but she can barely compare to the small jasper. At this time, he was robbed by Yiyi, and said that he couldn't say that he was Yiyi, and it was the first time that he didn't dare to fall into the face of the main courtyard with the eldest lady. When he was in a hurry, he stretched out his right hand and went straight forward to tear it, although it was only a few painless pulls, but as long as the young lady was touched by the subordinate, she would have no dignity, and she would dare to come to the front of Mrs. Zhengyuan to be rampant in the future.

Yiyi has practiced in the gym for many years, and she is an intermittent ADHD and an otaku. This time I saw Lamei's hands-on fun, yo he!

Practicing the family is refreshing, and those who can do it are not noisy!

Yiyi's left palm probed upward, and when it reached Lamei's wrist and elbow, he immediately pulled it back to lock his wrist; At the same time, the right leg of the wrong body stepped forward diagonally above to pin Lamei's right heel, and the calf was close to Lamei's right calf; The right hand probed five fingers into a claw, and locked the opponent's throat and pressed it back.

Lamei's scream was only half a short sound, like a cat being stepped on its neck, and it stopped abruptly.

Defeat the enemy with one move, well done!

I really have strength, I didn't have a chance to meet gangsters in the past, and I was buried!

He Miaoxiang took the lead in silent mourning all over the house, and the enemy's mouth was black, whining......

"I learned a little bit of fighting in a foreign country. It is common for Gentiles to call their parents and elders by their names, and I didn't learn that because I wasn't used to it. Yiyi was a little reluctant to catch the shape of this spicy girl, so she tightened her claws.

Scared Lamei's hairs stand on end, the law of this dynasty: the master kills the slave and the maid and the crime is reduced to the fourth degree, and the intentional killing of the slave and the maid is only punished by one year in prison, and the negligent killing of the slave and the maid is not guilty. The official deliberately killed the slave and maid, and the impeachment by the imperial history was only a punishment. A slave or maid who assaults his master, even if he injures his master negligently, is sentenced to hanging. Just now, I was just thinking about it, and if I lost the face of the eldest lady, who knew that the daughter of the champion family's daughter would be able to make a move with her subordinates.

Yiyi saw that Lamei's face was white, and she felt that she should let go of this defeated man and end her kung fu debut.

"Why didn't you learn...... He Miaoxiang saw that this was broken, and the rival girl in the backyard was arguing with each other - if she just learned a crooked word and came back, everyone could still compete.

Mother You tugged at her sleeve before she changed her words and said, "...... Didn't learn well! ”

Yiyi looked at the third uncle: "The art of fighting can strengthen the body and protect yourself from bullying, which is very good!" ”

The third uncle received the shock on his face and strongly supported: "There will be bad people and drunks in Beijing, not to mention being in a foreign country, you should learn!" "I feel a little relieved in my heart, but it's a pity - it seems that I can't fight the main thing.

Yiyi picked a thumbs up in her heart - "What a vision!" ”

looked at He Shi and Lamei, who shrank to her side: "The maid in the old lady's room has a lively personality and loves to move her hands and feet. If I can't cope with the three tricks and two styles, I will be embarrassed at home! ”

He Miaoxiang can't afford to care about the old lady or grandmother at this time, as long as she quickly invites this fierce god out, everything will be fine! "We used to be the family of the five grades, and now your father has not yet taken up his post in the capital, but he relies on your second uncle's six and a half grades to survive, and the car is not affordable. The first and fifteenth days of the Lunar New Year are also the days when I worship God and Buddha. If you want to go to the temple early to burn incense, it is not uncommon for the elders in the capital to have a car. The juniors use a special car, even the brother of the Guozi Jian studying, and as for you, there is no such rule at home. "There are no rules, and the housekeeper can't be exhaustive. If you don't make a mistake in being in charge, you can always hold the stewardship.

"I'll take the house rules." Yiyi was curious about this magical legendary cheats, and just took the opportunity to read it.

He and the others were a little stunned and flipped the Lin family's family rules.

Ma sent the big girl in the courtyard, Bishu, to the outer courtyard to explain the ingredients that the boy bought for the night. Then he led his daughter to the main courtyard.

The mother-in-law pays attention to the style in the uncle's house, and it is impossible to cross the bamboo garden to eat; will not let the juniors set the meal to the main house; But after a few rooms for dinner, the words still have to be returned to the parents.

When I arrived at the main courtyard, I felt that the atmosphere was a little wonderful, and the knife eye that usually flew out of Lamei next to my mother-in-law was also put into storage today, and it was very quiet!

Yiliu is in the second room, her father is silent, her mother is conniving, and her aunts are holding them with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, which can be regarded as a comfortable life. Alone will be left out in the main courtyard sooner or later, but fortunately, as soon as the three-and-a-half-sentence interaction like a repeater passes, it can be opened. Don't worry about chatting with her for a long time, which can be a little comforting to her.

Yiyi took the house rules and let her cousin enjoy them. "I just got home, and I don't know anything, but I will understand it, so as not to make a joke and not know." Yiliu doesn't understand what the family rules are good about, but her cousin is the eldest daughter, and if what she says is not outrageous, she can't dismiss face in public.

Looking at the family rules, they are too simple, and they don't reveal their grandfather's sour rot, and they don't say a lot of words.

Roughly speaking: men should go to school, fine arts, and support their families; understand etiquette and know shame; The best of the family is bound and lean; For three meals a day, four seasons of clothes, Beijing young boys month pattern silver two taels.

Women's dependents: women should be reasonable, understand human feelings, assist their husbands, and teach their children; The capital of family upbringing and grooming; For three meals a day, clothes for four seasons, new jewelry, two taels of silver for unmarried women in Beijing, and three hundred taels of dowry silver.

To put it simply, it attaches great importance to the cultivation of the children of the family, and it is to cultivate a hostess who has the ability to teach her children by word and deed.

The daughter of the Lin family wants to have proper makeup, new clothes and jewelry, and the silver taels for marriage are very rich.

The dowry is rich depending on the amount of silver, because the purchasing power of each period and the prices of various categories rise and fall with each other, so it is not intuitive to look at.

For example, according to the grade, it is about the same as the head of the county school - the ancients enlightened to study in primary school and junior high school, generally in a private school; Xiucai studied in the county school (the appearance of high school, but it is much more difficult than high school students.) After all, Yiwu education was not widely carried out in ancient times, and reading was a luxury, and there were few and expensive readers. ); Older people who do not show off their talents and want to continue their studies can be "attached students" or spend money to buy places to study in the county; The big family also runs a clan school and accompanies the men and young girls of the whole clan to go to school.

On the whole, according to the year, the total amount of silver is three hundred and eighty two hundred and seven cents; The total annual income of the head of the three uncles and one county is more than 600 taels. It includes basic salary (salary), grain subsidy (Lu rice), responsible post subsidy (vocational field), and household labor subsidy (miscellaneous labor). Flexible seniority subsidy: Yiyi is the standard of 121 years of superposition of nine rank officials, and 6 years of service is 621 years; The third uncle is the standard of thirty-two years superimposed on the seven-rank official, and he has served for two years, and the uncle and nephew are equal. As for the subsidy for the exclusive entourage, it is not easy to calculate income, because basically every time you invite an additional person, you have to pay a little more.

As mentioned earlier, there were no dual-income workers in ancient times, and the official dependents did not work to make money and spent money to hire people to serve, so this is an official who raised a family of silver taels.

Seventh- to nine-rank low-ranking officials worked hard to save money, waiting for the opportunity to buy a grange, and it took a lot of time to save three hundred taels. Nowadays, there are many children, and it is not certain that it will cost a few three hundred taels in the end.

The current fourth-class earl title, the head of the family takes the position, and the knight is double. The girl in the house has no more than three or four taels of silver per month; When the daughter got married, the public account of the family was only about six or seven hundred taels of silver.

Such a comparison shows that the Lin family treats their daughter very well.

Yiyi read the concise family rules word by word, and said regretfully: "I really didn't write it!" After a pause, he looked at the second aunt and the third uncle and said, "Family rules, family rules - the parents make them, and the whole family implements them." Our situation is special, if you don't discuss it, I can't go to the imperial city without a carriage, and I can't buy it. "It's not close to a day's round trip, this is the rhythm of ultramarathon practice every day!" There was no carriage, even if I insisted on gritting my teeth and walking, my colleagues in the yamen would all go home. ”

Ma and this eldest niece have not seen each other for many years and are not familiar with each other, and they are going to be happy when they hear this. Is it safe for an eldest lady to measure the early morning morning with her feet? Walking to the yamen and giving the people of the capital a look, is it good-looking? There's still time, it's no better than shopping, and you're going to be late to get boarded, aren't you afraid!
