Chapter 222: Annual Accounts
"With this kind of weather, I don't know if it will snow after the year." Yuechun was very worried.
"Why don't you have to wait until the end of January? This road is frozen and stiff, where can I start? It's dangerous. ”
Speaking of this, Yueqiu also had a sad face, and complained in her heart that her master did not think about the young master and acted willfully.
"If you take the waterway a year ago and go to your ancestral home for the New Year, you won't be so passive!"
Yuerong sighed, how can they relax when they are in a hurry in such weather?
Su Yizhao was very leisurely, and he didn't panic at all.
"The departure in January is also successful, and the snow may not fall. It's late, so it's better to prepare your luggage with peace of mind, and you can prepare it for the road. ”
The last time I returned to my hometown, it was Su Wenqing who wanted to take the exam. This time when he returned to his hometown, Su Yizhao was going to end.
This county test, on February 19, she calculated, and the time was still abundant. However, in ancient times, the traffic was inconvenient, so I was afraid that something would go wrong on the road.
Because as soon as the New Year is over, she will have to set off on her journey.
If you want to ask why you didn't set off earlier, isn't it because of Su Wenqing? When he returned to his hometown this time, Su Yizhao was only eleven years old, and he must have been taken by his elders.
Su Wenqing is an idler, and he is Su Yizhao's father, so he naturally takes it seriously.
It's just that Su Wenqing refused to leave as soon as possible, feeling that the Beiyuan Mansion was very boring, and he had to go back after the New Year.
"Young master, why don't you take the slave and maid with you? I will serve you on the road, and if you are used to serving, it will be easy to call. Yue Rong said.
This is the result of the discussion between the two, and Yuerong is indeed more careful than Yueqiu.
Besides, you can't leave a big girl in this courtyard, Yueqiu will inquire about the news, and her temperament is also spicy, so it's just right to stay and watch the yard.
Su Yizhao was embarrassed when he heard this, who would go out with a girl? Doesn't that make him laughed at?
She hurriedly refused: "No need! It's freezing on this day, my skin is rough and my flesh is thick, you can't bear it, there is a waiter! There were two other retinues with my father, and Uncle Zhong also followed, and he had enough men. ”
Rough skin and thick meat? Yueqiu glanced at Su Yizhao's jade-white and delicate skin, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Their own young master will open his eyes and talk nonsense, which often makes them envious of his skin, why is his skin rough and thick?
"That young master should be very careful when he is outside, wear more clothes on the road, and he can't catch a cold. The slave maid also sewed a sable fur cloak for you, and you wear it plainly on weekdays, so you must bring it with you this time, and keep warm. ”
Yuerong knew Su Yizhao's temper, so she didn't force it anymore.
The sable fur she said was brought back from outside by Su Yizhao, the fur was smooth and looked very luxurious.
Yue Rong calculated, and the young master got back a total of two rounds of silver, the first time six hundred taels, and the second three hundred taels.
This time I went back to my ancestral hometown, or I brought some past to the young master.
As for where the money came from, Yuerong only asked for the first time, and then didn't ask more.
Her guess was that the young master had made a living outside privately.
It's just that the house has not yet been separated, and the private property has been found but will be confiscated. Therefore, the young master didn't say it, and she didn't dare to ask.
It's a pity that since the old man was infected with the wind chill last time, which led to the failure of the meeting, the treatment of the four rooms in the house has gradually returned to the past.
Even if the young master has good things, he doesn't dare to take them out, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the house.
Coupled with the fact that the Sixth Young Master is back, their lives are even more difficult.
Su Yizhao thinks that it is better to take it out than to wear it in the house, but wouldn't Su Wenqing be curious about the origin of the cloak? Isn't this self-defeating?
Su Wenqing is used to seeing good things on weekdays, where can he not recognize sable hair?
Alas! I didn't dare to spend the silver, except for the share given by the house, Su Wenqing gave a lot of good things in the Beiyuan Mansion, but I didn't dare to take out what I had in my hand.
But after returning to the capital, he returned to the days when he rarely saw Su Wenqing before, and there were naturally no good things.
Fortunately, I went to Rhubarb last time and got a lot of good fur.
Because she had told her before, try not to destroy the fur, so the fur in the rhubarb cave can pick out a lot of almost intact.
This sable fur is the one I got from the rhubarb's hole last time.
This piece of sable fur and a piece of fox fur were randomly discarded in a corner of the cave at that time, and Su Yizhao's heart was painful, it was really a tyrannical thing.
She took it out and asked the craftsman to make it, and if she sold it, she was afraid that the small piece of skin would have to be sold for at least twenty or thirty taels of silver.
That's sable fur, a rare thing.
Alas! The good things are pressed to the bottom of the box, and she can only look at it, but she can't use it, which is really distressing.
"It's okay to take it with you, but let's pack less winter clothes! When I get back, it's going to be autumn. Su Yizhao said.
You have to plan well, and if you can pass the county exam, you will naturally have to wait until the exam is over.
Listening to the two discussing what they must bring on this trip, Su Yizhao quickly finished his meal and asked the two to eat as soon as possible.
Yuerong and Yueqiu have been taught the rules, the master has no food, and they must not use food.
Therefore, Su Yizhao tried to be as fast as possible.
Some of the dishes won't be moved, so that the two of them don't have to go to the big kitchen to serve people's food, just eat some.
The two are often moved by this, because Su Yizhao really thinks about them.
Yueqiu said that the big girls in the other rooms, looking at the scenery on the surface, actually served in front of the master, and their lives were not easy.
Wait for the master to finish the meal and then go to the big kitchen, in order to please those big girls, the big kitchen naturally does not dare to give bad food, but after the meal, and afraid of the master's summons, the meal is always in a hurry.
If there is a banquet in the house, you have to go hungry until the end of the banquet.
In this regard, they are not as comfortable as the little girls and rough mothers-in-law. But every month there was a lot of silver in the month, and the master was happy, and the reward was more than the silver in the month.
Therefore, the big girl of a big family, who was released by the master's grace to marry, is much richer than the family of a small family.
The candlelit figure is reflected on the window paper, forming a floating silhouette.
After Su Yizhao finished today's homework, he took out an account book from his book bag.
The shop has not checked the accounts for a month, taking advantage of today, Su Yizhao plans to take a look at the accounts, and the next business is almost ready, and is preparing for the opening.
A thick account book that records daily income and expenditure.
With the method she taught, Uncle Sun recorded the account books exactly every time.
Let's first turn over this month's gross profit, a total of 1,833 taels and 472 wen.
This month, compared with last month, the profit fell by more than 300 taels.
Also, at the end of the year, there were very few ships and merchants traveling to and from other places in Beijing.
There are five days left for the New Year, and they all returned to their hometowns. In addition, the people's homes prepare too much food, and their livelihood will naturally be affected.
Fortunately, at the end of the year, everyone had a balance, and they were generous with what they could eat.
Even poor families who can't eat meat all year round are willing to buy half a chicken to taste.
