Chapter 253: Warning
Mingzhu said hard work in a decent manner, so that Hu Yi set up a seat outside the curtain, enjoyed the tea, she slowly grabbed the head booklet and read it twice, and had already written down the names and numbers of people on it, closed her eyes and went through the people she had seen in her mind, and then matched most of them.
Then I picked up the income and expenditure account book and flipped through a few books, calculated the approximate number of my mother's family, and recalled the income and expenditure situation of the Lin'an Mansion back then, and I had a number in my heart, sure enough, Yuwenchu was very rich, and he was really thrifty at ordinary times, and there was nothing wasted. If there was a sudden spike in expenses, it was before he was about to marry her, and then after she walked in the door, the expenses were almost twice as high as before.
Mingzhu is a little embarrassed, is she such a loser? She didn't do anything, she didn't add clothes, jewelry or anything, and when she was preparing for the dowry, her mother had already prepared all the clothes for the four seasons for her, and the jewelry couldn't be worn for several lifetimes. It's just a matter of eating and drinking, where did she spend so much? Slander, this is slander!
Mingzhu closed the account book and said with a smile: "How can the recent expenditure suddenly increase so much?" ”
Hu Yi stood up and replied respectfully: "Back to the princess's words, there are a few new celebrity chefs in the house, these celebrity chefs are all temperamental, there are a few long-term servants around them, there must be one or two girls who wash clothes and make tea, the place to live is not too bad, the salary is not too small, there are also requirements for three meals a day, and they often buy good ingredients to try and cook......
Mingzhu didn't want to listen to it anymore, people were telling her euphemistically, and she really ate and drank and spent, so she quickly changed the topic: "How much money can we balance in our house a year?" ”
Hu Yi replied: "If you go back to the princess, Your Royal Highness has a good way to run the family, not counting grain and silk, you can leave about 20,000 taels of silver." ”
There must be more than that, Yu Wenchu's money must have been dug and hidden! Mingzhu put the account book back in the box, took the handkerchief handed by Su Lan and wiped his hands, and asked, "How can I hear Your Highness say more than that?" ”
Hu Yi was so nervous that his goatee trembled: "That, that, the villain only sees so much." ”
This account room is also a wonderful person, and he answers this sentence without leaking a drop of water, and he does not leave his hands behind. Neither confirmed that there was indeed more than so much money, nor did he lie to her, he really only saw so much, and he didn't believe it. There are really no stupid people in the British Palace, except for Zhu Changsheng! Mingzhu smiled: "Don't be nervous, sir, I'm just asking casually." I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, I always have to know how our family is, and I know in my heart, the palace is not as good as the outside, and the four seasons and eight festivals are all to reward the lower head and pay tribute to the palace, isn't it? ”
Even through the bead curtain, Hu Yi smiled brightly at Mingzhu: "The princess is virtuous, and she said it very well." ”
Mingzhu motioned for Hu Yi to step back: "I'm fine here, Mr. go on an errand." ”
Not long after Hu Yi left, Zhu Changsheng and Li Xinxin came together, both of them were smiling, and they respectfully greeted Mingzhu one after the other.
"Give a seat, serve tea." Mingzhu's eyes were sharp, and he saw that Zhu Changsheng had a strand of hair coming out from under the gauze hat, and Li Xinxin had a faint footprint on his boots, knowing that these two people had probably been torn, while despising Yuwen Chu's lax rule, these two people really had no rules, and the chief managers inside and outside the palace actually fought; On the other hand, he was a little proud, Li Xinxin really listened to her words, and he understood, let's fight, let's fight, it's fun to fight.
Zhu Changsheng has followed Yuwenchu for a long time, and has made countless contributions, in the past, Yuwenchu would also reward him from time to time, so he also sat on the Mingzhu Throne, feeling that this was really nothing, but he didn't want half of his ass to be next to the stool, Li Xinxin glanced at him, and said with a servile face: "Where is there a place for slaves and maids to sit in front of the princess, and the slaves and maids are standing here to serve the princess, waiting for your orders." ”
was stirred by Li Xinxin, and the remaining half of Zhu Changsheng's buttocks immediately hung in mid-air, unable to sit down, unable to stand up, and eager to tear Li Xinxin and eat it.
But he has followed Yuwenchu for many years and has seen a number of people in the world, and this little trick is not difficult for him.
Fu Mingzhu has already been offended by him, no matter how clever he is, he can't overpower Li Xinxin, not to mention that after yesterday's incident, Fu Mingzhu suddenly asked him to take His Highness's private account, and it was clear that he had a rumor, and he wanted to force him to rebel and calculate him, compared with offending His Royal Highness and offending the princess, which consequence was more serious? Since she didn't give him a way to live, he was determined to hug His Highness's thighs to the end. The Fu family will be unlucky one day, Fu Mingzhu is not loved by the concubine and Princess Funing, and there is no shortage of young and beautiful women around His Royal Highness.
Thinking of this, Zhu Changsheng simply sat down on the stool, and then told him very ashamedly: "Please also ask the princess to forgive the villain's disrespectful sin, the villain has had a gout attack in the past few days, and it is really difficult to sit and lie down." ”
Mingzhu held her chin and smiled indifferently, and said lightly: "Manager Zhu doesn't need to worry, you are the right-hand man in front of His Highness, and His Royal Highness has also ordered me not to snub you, saying that your hard work is very difficult, and I also think so." Don't say it's sick, it's good, I let you sit on the toilet, what crime are you suing? ”
These words sound like good words, but when you think about it carefully, it is an insinuation that he relies on his hard work and does not look at her as a princess. Zhu Changsheng glanced at Mingzhu and saw that she was smiling and groaning, not like a person who would say such insinuating words, so it was just a coincidence, and immediately smiled very respectfully and gave a high hat: "The princess is really benevolent, there is no more princess in the major palaces in Beijing who is so sympathetic to her subordinates." ”
What nonsense! She clearly drove away a bunch of hard-working old people when she came, okay, I heard that Mama Yin's tongue was also cut in front of the group of old people from the palace early this morning after Yuwen Chu spoke. There are these few living examples, but I'm afraid that everyone is slandering her for being arrogant and mean at the moment, who will say that she is kind? That's blindness! Mingzhu snorted from his nostrils and looked at Li Xinxin, who was still clubbing on the side: "Li Xinxin, what did I ask you to do just now?" ”
Zhu Changsheng thought that Mingzhu would ask himself directly, and then he could say the wording that he had thought of a long time ago to block Mingzhu's mouth, but he didn't expect that she wouldn't ask herself at all, and only asked Li Xinxin about everything, so this meant that Li Xinxin would help her bite herself! Zhu Changsheng stared at Li Xinxin gloomily, warning him that if he didn't want to be the dog slave who ate inside and outside and curry favor with the princess behind his back, then he would do it himself.
