020 Sisters
If you subtract the next person, there are still about 1,000 taels.
Nowadays, the annual salary of a seventh-grade official is only ninety-eight stones, and the contract is forty-nine taels of silver, and the second room is a thousand taels of silver per year, which is naturally a lot.
However, when it comes to comparing with Xie Fu, such a little money is really not worth mentioning.
Xie Fu made a fortune as a businessman, although there is no grange, but over the years, not only have shops in Hejian Jingshi, but also have his own tea garden in the south of the Yangtze River, Xie Wan has never been there, but from the conversation of his parents, he heard that there are at least thousands of acres of land, so it is estimated that there must be an income of 10,000 taels of silver every year.
If Xie Wan's purpose of rebirth was only to target the Wang family, it would be too wasteful of this opportunity to be reborn as a human being.
The Wang family is just one of her enemies, she just broke her to death, and Xie Hong and Xie Rong - especially Xie Rong, he will be the backbone of the entire Xie Mansion in the future, he plays an important role in transforming the Xie Mansion from a landlord to a Jingshi magnate, and for a long time in his previous life, he was the core of the entire Xie Mansion and the side branches of his in-laws.
Xie Rong is very talented, it is said that the first day after birth can focus on the sight, nine months old can walk, one year old can say more than ten pairs of overlapping words, two years old can read complete Tang poems, eight years old can make couplets, and then ten years old in Xiucai, although the head of the study did not move, and waited until the age of eighteen to go to the township test, twenty-seven years old will exam, but he is very stable in his academic performance, so far in the face of any school has never made a mistake.
This is definitely a cautious person who is accustomed to leaving a way out.
Xie Wan's impression only saw Xie Rong twice, the first time was on Chinese New Year's Eve, he squatted on the ground to watch Xie Yun set off fireworks, his smiling face was soft, looking at the fireworks with a light in his eyes, like a morning star shining in that season.
He didn't see Xie Wan at the time, but later at the reunion banquet, his father asked her to call her "Third Uncle", and the smile on his face had subsided a lot, and he was no longer the father with a soft face, but an ordinary gentle scribe.
Later, when Xie Wan was a female teacher in the home of the imperial merchant Li Jun, Xie Rong was already a waiter in the household department, and he was invited by Li Jun that day to go to Li Mansion to appreciate chrysanthemums with Zhu Qinfang, a scholar of Hanlin Academy. Xie Wan saw through the curtain in the side hall that among the scholars, he was still smiling and silent, but the eyes that were becoming sharper and clearer made him the focus of the audience more and more.
Soon after, an uprising broke out in Guangxi due to drought. Duan Qishan, the governor of Guangxi, led the troops to be shocked, but he died before he could leave the army, and the war spread to Guizhou, Yunnan. The emperor fell ill in a hurry, and Ji Zhong, the first assistant to the cabinet, recommended Zhang Zhichuan to take over as the governor of Guangxi, and ordered Xie Rong, the head of the household department, to go to pacify the victims of the disaster.
In November of the same year, Zhang Zhichuan and Zheng Yi, the governor of Yunnan, drove the rebel army back to Guangxi for half a year, and the leader of the rebel army, Tong Guan, killed himself in front of the battle, and the remaining soldiers were brave and brave, some fled overseas, some followed Tong Guan, some fought to the death, and some fled to Huguang and other places in Sichuan, intending to instigate a large-scale army.
Zhang Zhichuan was anxious, and Xie Rong took out the silver to appease the people, promising to disarm and not kill, and wrote to the palace at the same time, suggesting that the corrupt officials be executed and the food and wages were distributed to appease the victims. The emperor adopted the suggestion and immediately let the neighboring provinces open warehouses to release grain, and the nearest help. Then, halfway through, the grain and grass were snatched up by the fleeing homeless people.
The victims in the same place could not wait for food and relief money, and began to riot again, Xie Rong immediately asked people to bring a letter back to Qinghe and ask Xie Qigong for help.
Xie Qigong released Yang's Grange warehouse in Nanwazhuang on the spot, let people load 30,000 catties of grain overnight, and invited the world's most famous dart bureau Zhenyuan Dart Bureau to escort him personally, and finally arrived in Guangxi within the agreed time limit.
These are the properties of the second room, and Xie Qigong will certainly not feel distressed for the sake of his beloved third son. The victims received food, and then the court's disaster relief food also arrived, and they immediately stopped the fire and accepted Zhao'an. Xie Rong made great contributions in front of Zhang Zhichuan, and was replaced and appointed as the governor of Guangxi, and the following year He Zhiyuan, a scholar of the Cabinet of Literature Palace, died, and the emperor appointed Xie Rong to replace him in the cabinet.
If you want Xie Wan to comment on Xie Rong, then he is a dormant eagle, he can not only calm down and wait for the opportunity to make a move, but also let go of his hand to fight when the target appears, his vision is in the sky, in the world, he is definitely not the role of the Wang family!
Therefore, her purpose is not just the Wang family, but the entire Xie Mansion, including Xie Rong.
Perhaps now in Xie Rong's eyes, Xie Wan and even Xie Lang have never entered his eyes at all, and they are not qualified to be his opponents. Maybe even the little industry of the second room that the Wang family can't let go of is not worth mentioning in his eyes.
But even so, in his previous life, he was able to take advantage of the opportunity of the Wenxi Uprising to become a feudal official, and finally squeezed into the cabinet, but he still relied on Mrs. Yang's 30,000 catties of grain in Nanyazhuang.
At the root of it, the Wang family was able to finally be the old feudal monarch in the old mansion of Jingshi Pavilion, and let the maids around her take a few coins of silver to send her away like a beggar, relying on Xie Rong's official authority, and Xie Rong's climb to a high position also relied on the financial resources of Xie Fu.
Xie Teng was originally the son of Xie Mansion, even if the entire Xie Mansion's family property is not all second room, at least it must account for the majority, not only did the second house not get half of the family property in the previous life, but the Wang family mother and son occupied all the property in their hands and used it to benefit her children and grandchildren! How can people swallow this breath?
If you don't start with the Xie family's industry first, then Xie Rong may still enter the emperor's sight according to the original trajectory; If Xie Rong becomes a big official in the end, then she will keep the property in her hand, and she will not be able to get back the family property that should belong to the second house, let alone correct her father's name.
Before all this is done, the first premise is to have money, and have more money than Xie Fu! Only by fundamentally winning them can it be possible to control the situation in the future.
Xie Wan felt more and more that the burden on his shoulders was heavy.
She pushed open the window facing the patio in the hugging mansion and saw Yufang walking in through the hall.
"Girl, the eldest girl and the second girl have come to see you."
It took Xie Wan a moment to react.
The eldest girl is Xie Rong's eldest daughter Xie Wei, and the second girl is Xie Hong's eldest daughter Xie Qi. The two of them are eleven years old and the other is nineteen years old, Xie Qi is a little cold and arrogant, Xie Wan has not had much contact with her, Xie Wei has been sick in bed because of the Huang family these days, she has never gone out to walk around, but now these two people come to see her together?
She was still immersed in the information about Xie Rong, and she was not very emotional for a while.
"Let's just say I'm uncomfortable—"
In the middle of speaking, a string of crisp laughter came from the other end of the hall, and then two half-height girls wearing pink and yellow makeup and dark pattern placket jackets walked in with each other.
"I knew the third sister would say that, you still don't believe it!"
Xie Wei, who had a Peugeot melon seed face on the left, smiled and looked at Xie Wan in the window slightly and said. She has handsome eyebrows, her charm is very similar to Xie Rong, and she has a vaguely girlish demeanor. Xie Qi, the head of the right, also had a smile on his face, but he looked much more reluctant, "I didn't know that the third sister was really so difficult to serve." ”
Xie Wan didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd of the two, so he had to walk out with a smile.
"It's dark, I'm afraid it's going to rain, why are you here?"
Xie Wei glanced at Xie Qi, and said with a generous smile: "You won't believe it if you miss you." It's not because when Fang just spoke to his wife, everyone said that Mrs. Ren of Nanyuan County was going to celebrate her birthday the day after tomorrow, and our family was going to celebrate her birthday. Mrs. asked the two of us to see what the third sister was doing, and whether we should go to Renfu together then. ”
Nanyuan County is where my uncle's house is located, if it is usual, of course Xie Wan wants to go, but the Ren family-heh, what kind of family is that Ren family? The third son of the Ren family is none other than someone who had a marriage contract with Xie Wan in his previous life!
This marriage was proposed by the Ren family on his own initiative with his uncle, and at that time, the Ren family and the Qi family were moving around, and Master Ren somehow heard that Xie Wan was suitable to be their daughter-in-law, so he came to the door to propose marriage to his uncle. The uncle saw the three sons, and it was said that they were still both good and good-looking, so he nodded. However, in less than five years, after his uncle resigned, Xie Lang only won a fellow jinshi, and the Ren family withdrew from this family business on the grounds that the two were incompatible.
For this reason, my aunt was so angry that she almost had a fight with Mrs. Ren, and then she had to take a detour when she met on the road.
Although Xie Wan has never even seen this third son, if he wants her to enter the door of their house, he will not think about it for eternity.
"It's hard for you to come." Xie Wan let Yuxue serve tea, and then said: "I also want to go with my sisters, but my brother said that I am filial piety and can't go to these banquets for the time being, otherwise, it will be said that our Xie family is a family that does not know proportion." ”
After hearing this, Xie Wei nodded and said, "What you said is very true." My father wrote several times, and they all taught us not to forget the etiquette rules, so as not to ruin our reputation, which shows that the third sister is very sensible. But everyone knows that you fainted because of the death of your parents, if you just go for a walk, it should be okay to relax. ”
"It's good that my sister doesn't go, let's stop persuading." Next to him, Xie Qi stared at Xie Wan's face, and couldn't help but stop Xie Wei.
Xie Wei frowned.
Xie Wan smiled faintly, turned back to Xie Wei and said: "Since the third uncle has instructed him so, it can be seen that this etiquette is extremely important, my father often said that the third uncle is sincere, benevolent and filial, and is a real gentleman." Now that my father is gone, I still want to listen to the third uncle. ”
Xie Wei was annoyed with Xie Qi, and when he heard Xie Wan praise his father so much, his face suddenly overflowed with brilliance. She took Xie Wan's hand and said, "We don't have many sisters, how boring it is for you to stay in this big yard on weekdays!" I see that you don't go out much these days when you go home, so it's not okay. If you're bored, come to me in the Breeze Courtyard. My father set me up on a swing and we played on it! ”
Xie Wan smiled and nodded: "Definitely." It's time to go and say hello to the third aunt. ”
