Chapter 789: News from the Outside
When Mrs. Wang saw that Lin Daiyu and others had said this, she really couldn't find any reason to go back and forth.
What's more, now the power of the Yun Mansion is much more powerful than the Rongguo Mansion, even the Yuan Concubine in the palace still needs to rely on Jia Yun to help outside, even if Mrs. Wang is not happy with Jia Yun's actions, she can only be helpless, and shook her head helplessly: "That's it, since the matter has come to this, what can it do? Let him go! Amitabha.". net
Jia Tanchun smiled, "Madam, you can relax! With the relationship between our two families, isn't Brother Yun still talking to our family in his heart? It must have been delayed for some other reason, otherwise, Brother Yun would not have done this."
Mrs. Wang said, "Yes, I just hope that he is kind!"
After that, Mrs. Wang hurriedly ordered someone to bring Jia Tanchun some small things, packed a box, and put it in the box for Jia Tanchun to take away when he left.
Jia Tanchun glanced at the items in the box, most of them were worthless things, thinking that Mrs. Wang should have obtained them from elsewhere and transferred them to her.
However, she did not refuse Mrs. Wang's kindness, so she accepted it.
Just as Jia Tanchun got up to leave, Mrs. Wang suddenly said, "Daughter, why is the silver in this treasury getting less and less? A few years ago, there wasn't that little, but now that I've asked Lai Da, there's not a lot of silver left."
Mrs. Wang's words forcibly pulled Jia Tanchun back, the economic problems of Rongguo Mansion have been around for a long time, and it is simply the lack of those people in front of them.
It was passed from Mrs. Wang to Wang Xifeng, and later after Wang Xifeng got into trouble, it fell into the hands of Jia Tanchun.
When Jia Tanchun went to check the accounts and asked about the matter, she found that there was no way to return to the sky, and the accounts of the entire Rongguo Mansion were a confused account, no matter how she calculated it, it was not clear, it was already in tatters, and there was almost no way to save it.
Now when Jia Tanchun heard Mrs. Wang talk about this, he was also extremely embarrassed: "Madam, I don't dare to take a penny more of the silver in this house, even the monthly money sent down every month is also distributed after Mrs. Wang's eyes, but there are many people in our family who eat idle meals and few people who make money, and there is always no income, which is really difficult to make ends meet, not to mention, in recent years, I have built such a large view garden, which is also painful, and I have not seen a harvest."
"That's it! Alright, don't talk about it." When it came to the construction of the Grand View Garden, Mrs. Wang's face also changed slightly, and she immediately stopped Jia Tanchun, and said quite unhappily: "This is for Concubine Yuan's mother, she is my daughter, this is the right thing, you are also my daughter, don't worry about your own family because of such small things, it is not enough to be grandiose."
After that, Mrs. Wang also waved her hand in a bad mood and said, "That's it, you go down!" I'm going to rest, too!"
Seeing Mrs. Wang's teasing people, Jia Tanchun also hurriedly walked out of Mrs. Wang's house, but after going out, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "How can I maintain this business as a weak woman?"
Housekeeper, housekeeper, these two words are easy to say, but difficult to do!
It wasn't until this moment that Jia Tanchun suddenly woke up to the fact that what he had dreamed of before was so hot, like a volcanic hell, pulling himself to be uneasy.
If time could be turned back, Jia Tanchun would never take over such a mess.
In the past, Jia Tanchun thought that Wang Xifeng was majestic, and this position of housekeeper was in charge of all the big and small things in the house, which was quite powerful, and he was envious in his heart, and he also thought about the housekeeper.
But after really letting Jia Tanchun take care of it, he knew how powerful it was, and he couldn't get out.
After Jia Tanchun left, someone came over again, but it was Jin Chu'er, the maid in Mrs. Wang's house.
She walked over and looked at Jia Tanchun and said, "Three girls."
"It turned out to be Jin Chu'er! You scared me just now, why are you hiding here and suddenly jumping out again? Could it be that you have something to talk to me about alone?" Jia Tanchun is a smart person, and he immediately understood what Jin Chu'er meant, and he was busy pulling Jin
Chu'er went to the inner room to talk.
After Jin Chu'er followed Jia Tanchun to the inner room, she looked at Jia Tanchun and said: "Recently, the master sent a letter, saying that he was short of silver in his hand, and he couldn't do it well.
Jia Tanchun hesitated for a moment and said, "Then according to what you mean, the master is going to ask us for silver from the treasury?" Go ahead! How much silver does the lord need to count?"
When Jin Chu'er heard this, she said seriously: "My wife is not very literate, so I also eavesdropped on the letter by letting the literate grandmother read the letter next to me, saying that it was for three thousand taels of silver for emergency relief, I am afraid it is not enough, it is only a temporary amount, and there may be more in the future."
"Ah! Three thousand taels of silver? Why do you need so much in one breath?" When Jia Tanchun heard this, he was also surprised, he never thought that Jia Zheng was an official outside, not only did he not get richer and richer, but he became poorer and poorer.
Jia Tanchun was extremely incomprehensible, and wondered: "Didn't this ordinary person say that if you are an official for one term, you will have ten thousand taels of silver? How did you get to our family, why did this old man get poorer and poorer? What you just said is true! Instead of lying to me?"
Jin Chu'er shook her head helplessly and said, "Third girl, how dare I lie to you, girl! The characters up and down in this house, who doesn't know how powerful you are, girl? I have that mind, but I can't hide it from the girl's eyes. What's more, it's something that both the wife and the grandmother know, and you just have to ask someone to find out if what I'm saying is true or not."
"This..." Jia Tanchun at this moment also asked Cang Tian speechlessly.
Her father is too pedantic, she can't understand what her father Jia Zheng is thinking, others are officials, promoted and rich, he is good to be an official, and he still needs money from his own family to support those people outside, how can this last for a long time?
Rongguo Mansion is not a pawnshop, let alone a household department of the imperial court, how can it take so much money to make up for outside affairs?
Even if you can come up with so much silver, I'm afraid it will be difficult to feed the evil wolves outside.
For a while, Jia Tanchun was able to foresee that in the near future, his father Jia Zheng would become more and more impoverished, and he would need to keep sucking the money of the Rongguo Mansion to maintain his livelihood and official business.
