Liu Paner knew that this Mrs. Li would not give up, thinking that Mrs. Li would have other clever means to embarrass her, but she didn't expect that this Mrs. Li would laugh at her because she was born in the countryside and had never seen the world.

This not only does not achieve the effect of belittling her, but will make Mrs. Li look very superficial and mean.

Liu Pan'er was not angry or annoyed, and asked with a smile: "Mrs. Li, this share of Buddha jumping over the wall is worth a lot of money, right?" ”

When Mrs. Li heard this, she was even more proud, "Of course, just this altar will cost a hundred taels of silver." Like the Buddha jumping over the wall made by our Li family, it is even more delicate, more expensive than this, and more delicious. ”

"Oh!" Liu Pan'er showed an envious expression and paralyzed Mrs. Li, "Mrs. Li is round and jade, and her complexion is very good, she must often eat Buddha jumping over the wall made of delicacies from the mountains and seas?" ”

"Of course, you can't be sloppy with what you eat. In fact, it's not much, just two ends in three days. Mrs. Li smiled, "If Mrs. Derui can't afford to eat, don't be envious, I'll ask someone to send you a few ingredients later, and when you go home and stew, it's also a pot of good Buddha jumping over the wall." ”

The others listened to Mrs. Li's words, some lowered their heads and snickered, some held back their laughter, and some felt that Mrs. Li was wrong to do so. looked down on people in public, and ridiculed others, in the end, they fell behind.

Liu Paner smiled and looked at Mrs. Li's eyes, full of banter, "The Li family eats Buddha and jumps over the wall twice in three days, even if it is eaten once every three days, there are more than 360 days a year, and they eat more than 120 times a year." The Li family's Buddha jumping over the wall is better than the Buddha jumping over the wall at the banquet, so as long as you get one hundred and fifty taels of silver. ”

"This calculation, Li Jiaguang eats a dish of Buddha jumping over the wall, and it will cost 18,000 taels of silver a year. The Li family is a big family, of course, they won't eat just one dish, and at the end of the year, they will have to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver just for meals. Clothes travel, people come and go. This year, without 100,000 taels of silver, life will not go on. ”

"My husband is a fourth-grade official, and all year round, he forgets to die, and his reward is only a few thousand taels. Master Li is a second-class official, and he is really high, and it is really enviable to be able to support such a large expenditure. The next time I write a letter to my husband, I will also ask my husband to work hard and become a second-class official as soon as possible. When the time comes, we will be able to justifiably ask Your Majesty for a high fortune, and eat Buddha and jump over the wall every day. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Not to mention the second-grade official, even if it is a first-grade official, it can't reach 100,000 taels of silver!

However, there are more opportunities to make money in private.

In three years, the Qing prefect has 100,000 snowflakes of silver, and the governor of these two products, especially in a rich place like Jiangnan, can cost more than 100,000 taels of silver a year.

Everyone's eyes were on Mrs. Li.

Of course, Mrs. Li also heard that Liu Paner was openly and secretly saying that her husband was corrupt, otherwise where would she get the 100,000 taels of silver?

Mrs. Li was a little weak-hearted, but soon thought that her dowry was rich, which was not comparable to a woman from a peasant family like Liu Paner.

"Mrs. Drey's family is from a peasant family, so she doesn't know anything. It is true that there are not many officials who are officials, but I am from a big family, and I am the daughter of the family. ”

When Liu Pan'er heard this, she smiled again, "Oh, then I have to envy Lord Li for my husband that he married a noble daughter of the family, and he can spend his wife's dowry to entertain outside at will, raise children and concubines." Mrs. Li is really admirable and generous, and she is willing to use her dowry to support those seven or eight concubines. ”

This sentence simply poked Mrs. Li's lung tube.

After today, Lord Li spent his wife's money and ate soft rice, and his reputation for eating soft rice will spread. If you don't admit it, it's corruption and bribery.

And, in fact, it is.

Master Li is embezzled, but it is not enough for the family to spend more than 100,000 taels of silver every year. Every year, Mrs. Li does subsidize seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver from her dowry income.

If the money is used for Lord Li and Mrs. Li and their children, it doesn't matter, the key is that there are eight concubines and concubines in the family, six concubines, and a number of unnamed rooms.

Mrs. Li's heart was stuffed and she wanted to be angry, but on such an occasion, she was annoyed and angry, which would only make her a laughing stock.

He is not angry, but he is uncomfortable.

Mrs. Li squinted at Liu Pan'er and suppressed the anger in her heart, "Mrs. Drey, are you so sharp and sharp-tongued, aren't you afraid of offending people?" Aren't you afraid of causing trouble to your husband and affecting his career? ”

Liu Paner smiled with an indifferent expression, "When others say about me, I may turn a blind eye and ignore others when they are talking nonsense, but I can't say that my child is not good." Besides, my husband and I work hard to make progress, just to live with dignity. If you can't protect your children, if you don't have dignity, what's the use of having this career? ”

Everyone was shocked by Liu Paner's words again, what if they were born as peasant women? The bones are hard, and the words are strong, but they also make a lot of sense!

Even if Mrs. Li took a fancy to the daughter newly recognized by the Marquis of Jinling just now, she couldn't say that in public, and her dogleg shouldn't use Li Rong to pat Mrs. Li's ass.

Mrs. Li looked down on the Marquis of Jinling Mansion in her heart, and wanted to find a woman with a noble identity and help behind her son, but she was easy to handle.

This Li Rong is good-looking, and all the conditions meet Mrs. Li's requirements.

She knew that no one in the Jinling Marquis Mansion dared to refute, and the third lady of the Lanling Marquis Mansion was also a daughter of the family, and when she encountered such a thing, she would not answer positively if she talked about him left and right, changed the topic, and changed the topic.

But she never expected that Liu Paner, a peasant woman, would ignore it and collide with her.

Just when the atmosphere was awkward, Mrs. Qi wanted to speak, but suddenly heard a shrill voice coming, "Father-in-law Liang has arrived!" ”

Recently, His Majesty sent Liang Gonggong to Jiangnan to read the holy decree, and after passing through Jinling, these official wives more or less learned about it from their husbands.

At this time, Liang Gonggong, who appeared in the Jinling Marquis Mansion, must be Liang Bao's father-in-law.

When Li Nan heard this, he chuckled and said, "Uncle Liang is here!" ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't believe it, Li Nan actually called Liang's father-in-law uncle, and the relationship must be good.

The lady in charge here did not dare to despise it.

Although Liang Bao is an internal servant, he has followed His Majesty since he was a child, served His Majesty, and blocked frames for His Majesty several times. In addition, Liang Bao is also very talented, and often goes out of the palace to handle some important things for His Majesty, and is the most trusted person of His Majesty. Once after ascending the throne, he was rewarded with the title of Liang Bao, and he was also a marquis.

However, Liang Bao felt that he was a rootless person, and it was useless to ask for this title, so he resigned and continued to work by His Majesty's side.

Almost all the courtiers of the Great Zhou knew about this experience.

Mrs. Li's face also changed greatly, worried that Liu Paner really had a good relationship with Liang Bao, and what she did today could be regarded as causing trouble.

The Marquis of Jinling brought Liang Gonggong in, and Liu Paner brought Li Rong, Li Nan, and Li Fang over to greet him.

Li Nan's voice was crisp, "Uncle Liang, why are you here?" Aren't you going to Gusu and Hangzhou? ”
