"Sister-in-law of the Wu family, is this going to the garden?" Qingwen asked with a smile.

Wu Xindeng, the head of the silver treasury of Rongguo Mansion, is a servant of the Jia family, and his daughter-in-law is also the daughter-in-law of the Jia family.

"Miss Qing, Miss Lin, where did the two girls come from?"

Wu Xindeng's smile bloomed, "This is not Aunt Zhao's brother Zhao Guoji is dead, I have to go back to the girl and grandma, and ask how much the reward is?" ”

Someone's brother died, and you laughed like this, is it appropriate?

Qingwen slandered in her heart, but she couldn't say it, she only asked: "According to the old practice, how much will you get rewarded?" ”

"This ...... This made the girl ask, and I didn't know. Wu Xindeng's eyes flickered.

Qingwen also knew that this mother-in-law was careful, but she was looking at Tanchun's first director, and she didn't understand the rules of previous years, so she wanted to take advantage of this matter to pinch her, so that she could be beautiful in front of the family master.

She smiled, shook her head, and walked on.

Just let this stupid woman who doesn't know the depth touch the nails, and want to bully Tanchun? The nickname of the third aunt and grandmother "Rose" is not for nothing.

Qingwen and Daiyu separated from Wu Xindeng's house and went back to their own courtyards.

Halfway through, she sighed and walked back again.

Wu Xindeng's own death, although Tanchun slapped her in the face, but because of this, Aunt Zhao made a big fuss, Tanchun cried a lot because of this, and her heart was also very unhappy.

Qingwen has been getting along with Tanchun happily since she came through, she admires this self-respecting and self-reliant girl, and really doesn't want her to be sad.

Let's just help her this time.

She Shi Shiran entered the small council hall and stepped forward in the attention of a group of maids.

"The third girl, sister-in-law, happened to come here, she was a little tired, come in and ask for a cup of tea."

"Come on, come on!"

Tanchun and Li Kun were a little surprised, but they still warmly invited her to sit down at the table and instructed the maids to bring clean tea bowls.

Qingwen sipped the tea and looked at Wu Xindeng's family, who was interrupted by her sudden arrival, with a smile: "I'm just here to sit down, you continue." ”

Tanchun also looked at Wu Xindeng's house, and said with a smile: "Zhao Guoji is dead, and my sister-in-law said that I will be rewarded with forty taels of silver, but I have a question, sister-in-law Wu may tell me about it?"

In those years, several old aunts and grandmothers in the old lady's house also had children and bought them from outside, and these two were different. If someone in the family dies, how much is the reward? If someone dies in the house, how much will it be rewarded? Tell us two. ”

Wu Xindeng's heart was "groaning", he really underestimated the three girls, and his mind was also leaking.

How can ordinary ladies think of these details? He didn't even ask Li Kun, and said that he would be rewarded with forty taels of silver.

She glanced at Qingwen, who was as steady as Mount Tai, as if she didn't care, gritted her teeth and smiled: "It's not a big deal, Aunt Zhao is...... How much do the three girls want to reward, who dares to fight? ”

She wants to say that Aunt Zhao is Tanchun's mother-in-law, Zhao Guoji is her uncle, and now Tanchun is the housekeeper, how much does she want to reward her uncle's family, and who dares to say anything?

The mothers-in-law of the other things in the house also looked at them coldly, and no one said a word.

They are all thousand-year-old sparrows, and they are more refined than monkeys one by one. They plan to take this opportunity to see how the two masters above are doing?

If it is done properly, everyone will be afraid; If there is a slight suspicion of inappropriateness, not only will you not be afraid to obey, but you will also make up a lot of jokes to make fun of it.

If Tanchun relies on his own housekeeper, he will reward his own mother-in-law and uncle with silver, which is naturally inappropriate.

Or, Tanchun doesn't ask about the old rules and mixes the silver in a daze, which is also a joke for them.

Tanchun is young, but he has the majesty of a master girl.

At this time, she raised her eyebrows and reprimanded: "This is nonsense! According to me, a hundred is good. If you don't follow the rules, don't tell you jokes, and it will be difficult for you to see your second grandmother tomorrow. ”

Wu Xindeng's family was annoyed when they saw her, and their hearts were even more "chuckling", this little girl is not easy to fool.

She pursed her lips and said, "That being said, I checked the old accounts, but I don't remember at this time." ”

Tanchun sneered: "The sister-in-law of the Wu family is old, and she can't remember, but it is difficult for us." You have been back to your second grandmother for a long time, and you are also checking it now? Why don't you come and see me! One day later, don't say that I don't have a face for my sister-in-law! ”

Wu Xindeng's face was flushed, and he hurriedly turned around and came out. For a while, he took the old account.

Tanchun opened it to take a closer look, and Qingwen also pretended to be curious and leaned over.

In fact, she knew the contents of this ledger without reading it.

After all, the scene of Tanchun slapping the evil slave in the face can be remembered clearly in her mind.

In the old practice of the Jia family, the maid born in the family was raised to an aunt, and if someone in the family died, a reward of twenty taels of silver would be rewarded.

The aunt who bought it outside or hired it, and the family died, and the reward was forty taels of silver.

There are also additional rewards, but they all have reasons: for example, those who move their parents from another province; Now buy a burial ground.

Zhao Guoji is a slave born in the family, and obviously does not meet the conditions for those extra silver rewards.

Tanchun looked at it carefully, exhaled softly, and was about to speak when he was stopped by Qingwen.

"Don't speak, I'll do this wicked man." She whispered.

"Good ......," Tanchun obviously breathed a sigh of relief.

The person who died was her uncle, and she should have avoided suspicion and should not have dealt with it herself.

However, Li Kun sat there, like a tablet.

Mrs. Wang asked her to be the director of the house, but she didn't want to offend anyone.

If you judge things like her, I'm afraid that the people below don't know how much to make fun of.

Qingwen didn't say much, only said lightly: "We have read the account book, and it is still the case, so I will give her twenty taels of silver." ”

Wu Xindeng's eyes rolled wildly, glanced at Li Kun and Tanchun, and then at Qingwen, but finally didn't dare to say anything, and agreed to go.

Qingwen didn't say much more, and drank tea slowly.

All the daughters-in-law in the house stuck out their tongues and whispered back to something else.

Over there, in Aunt Zhao's house.

Wu Xindeng's family paid the silver, and sent it to her like a rabbit.

"Alas! Auntie, I'm sorry for you. Don't be too young for your old man, the grandmother said that she would give forty taels, but ......"

The long-tongued woman of Wu Xindeng's family was embarrassed by Tanchun, and she was annoyed, and she wanted to provoke Aunt Zhao at this time.

"Forty taels?"

Aunt Zhao looked at the twenty taels of silver ingots in her hand, and her slender eyes immediately stood up, "Sister-in-law of the Wu family, tell me what's going on?" How did forty taels of silver become twenty taels? ”

"No, the third girl thinks that the eldest grandmother has rewarded forty taels without asking, which is not appropriate, so she has to take a look at the old year's account book. We don't know, this reward is also divided into two differences between the home and the outside, this ......"
