Chapter 488 (1/2)
Qin's willingness to hand in the feedback surprised Zhao suniang.
But when she saw the money on the book and the daily food and clothing, she immediately realized that it was a hot potato.
”Master, I'm afraid I can't take over this important task.” Zhao Su Niang also looks embarrassed and says with Jiang Chuanzhong, ”after all, it's hard for a skillful woman to cook without rice...”
Jiang Chuanzhong motioned to her not to worry. Then he took out the five hundred taels of silver tickets from Jiang Wan's mother Han: ”these are sent by sister Wan. You can use them first.”
Zhao Su Niang took the silver note, but her face was still not happy. She told Jiang Chuanzhong frankly: ”although in this capital, the average person's income in a year may be only twenty or thirty taels of silver. But our family is not the ordinary family. There are many old women and servant girls in our family. These people have to eat, wear and chew every day, and they also have normal human relations. The five hundred taels sent by my fourth aunt seem to be
A lot, I'm afraid we won't be able to last for a few months... ”
Jiang Chuanzhong was shocked to hear Zhao suniang say that. He didn't expect that the cost of the back house was so big.
”Then send them all out!” Jiang Chuanzhong frowned and said with a wave of his hand, ”now there are only four of us in the family. What are so many servants left to do?”
”But before his wife has sent a batch, no matter how little... I'm afraid...” Zhao Su Niang did not continue to say.
”I'm afraid what? I'm afraid we're going to have to do it ourselves? ” However, Jiang Chuanzhong's eyes glared. ”When I was in Shaanxi Province, I was with a little guy? Isn't it a good time? ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Chuanzhong thinks of his carefree and comfortable tenure in Shaanxi Province. He also thinks of his daily work in the Ministry of punishment. He thinks that he must have been blinded by lard when he first asked for recovery and only focused on Beijing officials.
All of a sudden, he had a bold idea.
”Su Niang, I want to be released!” Compared with the Qin family, who is not very reasonable, Jiang Chuanzhong thinks that Zhao suniang, who is knowledgeable and reasonable, can often communicate with him
He has a heart to heart connection.
”Outside? Where are you going? ” Zhao Su Niang is also strange.
”I want to go back to Shaanxi!” If just now the desire to be released is just an idea, now Jiang Chuanzhong is eager to realize it.
Zhao suniang's heart also missed a beat.
Shaanxi is her hometown. If she could go back, it would be wonderful.
”It's not that easy, I'm afraid?” Zhao Su Niang is not very optimistic to say, ”at least the wife is not necessarily happy...”
”Then don't tell her yet!” Jiang Chuanzhong said firmly, ”in any case, the Ministry of officials will not assess and appoint or remove officials until the beginning of next spring. We still have several months to figure it out slowly... Before that, you should first send away those unnecessary people in the house. If you think you can't do it, you can make a list for me and I will be the villain.”
Hearing Jiang Chuanzhong say so, Zhao suniang made a list for him.
Jiang Chuanzhong followed the list and sent out the people in the house one by one.
Those servants who followed the Qin family from the south of the Yangtze River were naturally ten thousand unwilling, and they knelt down in front of the Qin family under the guidance of mother du to complain.
Mother Du really didn't expect that she had been with her wife for so many years, but she was asked to leave the house for ”honor and support” because she was ”old”“ Ma'am, you can't continue to be so sick! ” Mother Du knelt down in front of Qin's bed, sniveling and crying, ”how many days have you just handed over Zhongfu? Zhao Su Niang, that little bitch, urged the master to drive us away! ”
