After the mothers-in-law retreated, many people complained: "This Rongguo Mansion also seems to feel that we countrymen are easy to coax, when did this noble concubine and the emperor celebrate the New Year's Festival, when did they not reward these royal relatives?" Now we don't even have anything to eat, but they still think about the money of the countrymen, and they are really snakes and scorpions, and none of them are content. ”

Even if Tanchun behaved very generously and decently today and did not take the initiative to investigate this matter, in the eyes of these stewards of the Rongguo Mansion Grange, it was also a very unhappy thing.

In their minds, how rich and noble is Rongguo Mansion, why is there a lack of these few silvers from them?

If Rongguo Mansion didn't have these few silvers, they could live, but if they didn't have these silver to support them through the famine, they were afraid that they would have to sell their sons and daughters, eat Guanyin soil and swell to death, and there would be no way to live.

The masters and girls of Rongguo Mansion live a life of wealth and wealth, brocade clothes and fine food, and these people are throwing food in the soil to survive, and they can't see a few pieces of meat in a year, how can they talk about a enjoyment?

These masters are crying poor, and they really deserve to die.

This is how the hearts of men are, and each of them is his own.

Not to mention, these mothers-in-law in Rongguo's mansion thought that they said that Yingchun came to the house to visit spring again.

Tanchun was sending away the mothers-in-law, rubbing his forehead, and when he had a headache, he heard the waiter outside walk in, and said with a smile: "Miss, it's Aunt Ying's grandmother from Yunfu who is here." ”

Listening to the words of the waiter, Tanchun was also slightly stunned, thinking: "Sister Yingchun, why are you back again?" Isn't there already news? ”

However, Tanchun was still busy instructing the waiter to summon Yingchun to come in and speak.

Suddenly, Yingchun lifted the soft curtain, walked in from outside, looked at Tanchun, and said, "Sister Tanchun." ”

Tanchun also smiled: "Sister Yingchun." ”

After the two of them sat down, Yingchun glanced at a few maids next to him, glanced at Tanchun, and coughed: "It's not very convenient to talk here......

Tanchun understood, and immediately let the maid beside him leave: "You go out first, wait a while, if I call you, you will come in again!" ”

After that, he saw the waiter and the others and went out.

Yingchun saw everyone leaving, so he was willing to take out the letter in his sleeve, looked at Tanchun and said: "This is the letter that my husband ordered me to hand over to you to send to the palace and hand over to the concubine, you take it, put it away carefully, don't let others know." Also, my husband asked me to come over and inform my sister, and I will rush Ming'er into the palace with my husband, he will be accommodating in the Daming Palace, and he will definitely arrange for you to meet with Concubine Yuan. ”

Tanchun couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this: "Is this really so important? ”

Yingchun nodded: "It's unpredictable, you can't go." ”

For other words, Yingchun didn't dare to say anything more.

After all, she doesn't know much about this matter, if it's nonsense, let Tanchun talk about it with Concubine Yuan, I'm afraid it will be bad.

Less words, the most important.

This reason is still clear in the spring.

Seeing this, Tanchun also took the letter in Yingchun's hand, put it away carefully, and never opened it.

This is what Jia Yun wants to hand over to Concubine Yuan, but not for herself.

Therefore, it is better to know less.

After Tanchun got the letter, he looked at Yingchun: "Sister, then I will go back to the old lady tomorrow morning, and I will enter the palace with Brother Yun." ”

Yingchun shook his head: "Sister, you'd better go and say it today, if the old lady asks about it, just take the name of my husband."

If the old lady knew that this matter was my husband's mind, she would definitely not embarrass her sister.

Moreover, the court listened to the government, although it was the fifth watch, but it was the emperor, and the general court officials still had to go in advance, and they were about to rush to the third and fourth watches. ”

Tanchun nodded: "It's still what my sister said, but this early hour can't be delayed." ”

After that, Tanchun looked at Yingchun and asked, "Does that sister have anything else?" ”

Yingchun shook his head: "But there is nothing else." ”

Tanchun glanced at Yingchun, and thought of the troublesome things he had encountered recently, so he complained to Yingchun: "Sister, our family is getting poorer and poorer, there is a shortage of silver taels, there is less calling, life is difficult, and it is far less rich than your family."

Now, the harvest in this field has encountered natural disasters, and the yield has been seriously reduced, and it is not possible to harvest much.

You can go back and talk to Brother Yun'er, let him help me come up with ideas, and my sister should also help my sister, so that my sister will suffer less sin, and she won't have to work hard every day for the scattered silver. ”

After listening to Tanchun's words, Yingchun was also busy comforting Tanchun and said, "Why is it so difficult in this house?" ”

Tanchun gave Yingchun a cold look: "Sister, but I don't know." Didn't this house lose a few thousand taels of silver that year? In recent years, the Grand View Garden has been repaired, and the family has been hollowed out. There are few men in our family who have the skills of Brother Yun.

How can you not be poor? ”

Yingchun pondered carefully, nodded and said, "I will arrange this matter." ”

After that, Yingchun took out a silver ticket of five hundred taels from his sleeve and handed it to Tanchun, saying: "Sister, this is the pocket money I have saved recently, and I don't think I have a place to spend at home, so I will give it to my sister." ”

Tanchun was slightly surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly shook his head and refused: "Sister, how can this be done?" How can I ask for my sister's money? No matter how poor our family is, it won't be like this! ”

Yingchun put the silver ticket on the table and said to Tanchun: "Sister, you don't know the situation in our family.

The eldest lady of our family has a monthly salary of 1,000 taels of silver, and in addition, we small ones also have a monthly salary of 500 taels of silver.

All of the food and clothing are specially purchased, and we don't need to pay for it.

I got so much silver, I can't spend it all, I can't spend it at all. ”

Tanchun glanced at Yingchun in front of him in horror.

Although she knew that Yunfu had always been rich and noble, and her life was better than Rongguofu, but how much better it was than Rongguofu, she didn't know, and now she knew the richness of this Yunfu.

Tanchun calculated carefully, and said in a shocking manner: "Isn't that Sister Lin's monthly money for a year more than 10,000 silver?" It's amazing, it's amazing! ”

Yingchun nodded: "Naturally, there is." It's just that our family is different from other families, and our family has a lot of property. The Xue family's industry, the pawnshops everywhere, rouge gouache, antiques, and even the restaurants where they eat are everywhere. If you only rely on food and clothing, I am afraid that you will not be able to eat for ten lifetimes. ”
