Chapter 93 (2/2)

There is a deep estrangement between the Royal father and son. Although we don't talk about this, we all know it. This time, it's completely big.

The story of the crown prince shooting and killing his mother and maidservant spread all over the country within a month. Now the Chu family heard it, and the second young master said, ”although the crown prince's trip is inappropriate, it's also to maintain the military prestige. It's understandable.”

”We feel extenuating. Where are the emperor and the empress?” more Changxing Hou are hard to say, so they can only pass by. ”The prince was only 16 years old at that time, young and energetic!”

Chu Jinyao sneered at the jade pendant. After knowing Qi Ze and at Qi Ze's strong request, Chu Jinyao had to change a tie and hang the jade pendant around her neck. It turned out that she was tied around her waist. It was childish and lovely for children to wear a hundred life lock around their neck. Chu Jinyao was so big that she still hung something around her neck. Chu Jinyao felt very ashamed, but she couldn't stand Qi Ze said she could only bite her teeth and bear it.

Chu Jinyao blinked, almost suspecting that she had heard wrong. Qi Ze was more vigilant than her. He never spoke when there were many people. Now there is still her father sitting here. Shouldn't he be able to help it?

Chu Jinyao couldn't figure it out, so she had to put it behind her temporarily. Maybe she had an illusion in her ear.

Zhao couldn't help asking, ”the Marquis didn't come some time ago. Is he busy... About the prince?”

”That's right. When the prince arrives at the border, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield. Tatars often disturb the border this year. Who can rest assured?” Chang Hsing Hou and Zhao Shi said this to let them know the situation in the palace. As for what he was really busy some time ago, he couldn't tell them.

Zhao knew that Changxing Hou was busy with serious business outside. He didn't keep the outside room. His heart suddenly settled down. She is not interested in the prince. These big people have nothing to do with her. They have their own men. All she cares about is her aunt and girls in the back house.

After dinner, Changxing Hou took the second young master and the other two concubines outside. I think he continued to talk about the prince. Chu Jinyao felt sorry after seeing her father off. She still wanted to know what happened to the Prince later.

Changxing Hou left and the young masters also left. There were only women left in the house, and it was much more convenient to speak.

Zhao sat obliquely on the Kang mat, Chu Jinmiao leaned against Zhao's hand, while Chu Jinxian stood opposite Zhao, tied her hands and stood upright, slightly lowering her head. Chu Jinyao looks at Chu Jinmiao sitting next to Zhao and Chu Jinxian standing respectfully. She silently walks behind Chu Jinxian. With Chu Jinxian and Chu Jinyao at the beginning, another concubine girl is not easy to sit, so she can only stand with Chu Jinyao.

Serious legitimate women are standing well. Where dare she sit?

Zhao's girl looked at the girls standing and hurriedly wanted to move the stool. Chu Jinxian shook her head and said no. Zhao didn't care either. She turned over the account book in her hand and said, ”it's time to send monthly silver these days. According to the rules of our house, you girls have two liang of silver a month, and the big servant girl around you has one or two liang of silver a month. The girl has four clothes every season, and the concubine has two bodies. If there are guests or go out, the jewelry will be beaten separately. If it's birthday or festival, the elders will be subsidized.”

Chu Jinyao was shocked when she heard this. She remembered that one year their family had a particularly good harvest and got a total of 18 liang of silver. Su's father and Su's mother couldn't close their mouths. The Su family only earns a total of 17.8 Liang all year round. It's still a good year. The girls of the Chu family don't worry about food and clothing, and they can get two liang of silver a month. Chu Jinyao calculated silently. It seems that she only needs to save some flowers and save the monthly cases. By the end of the year, the Bisu family will have money after working hard for a year.

Chu Jinyao was shocked.

Before Chu Jinyao was shocked, Zhao turned the page of the account book and said again: ”These are the rules. Five girls just came back these days. Unlike you, she has changed clothes in previous years, and her clothes and jewelry have to be purchased again. The old lady paid one hundred liang from the public, and she subsidized one hundred Liang herself. Your father and I also subsidized some respectively. The total is about four hundred Liang. Apart from renovating the yard, buying shelf beds, pear blossom wood tables and chairs There are 150 taels left of large items such as mahogany wardrobe, dressing table and screen. She has made eight sets of jackets and skirts, winter clothes, a fur dress and two spring clothes. Then she has scattered some jewelry, and there are still thirty taels left. ”

When Chu Jinyao heard that there were four hundred Liang under her name, her heart jumped quickly. When she heard that the four hundred Liang had been spent, her heart rose and fell, and now it has been calm.

Chu Jinyao didn't expect that in less than a month, the family smashed nearly 400 Liang on her... But the big head is furniture. These can be used for a long time with one blood, and many clothes are bought at one time. This sounds scary.

Chu Jinyao used to save clothes when she was a farmer, but now the environment is completely different. Chu Jinyao also knows that she can't be soft on clothes and jewelry. Otherwise, she will be ashamed of the big house. Especially Chu Jinyao has a special identity and can't save it.

Chu Jinyao suddenly felt that February and February were not enough.

Not only Chu Jinyao was frightened by the four hundred Liang, but other girls were also surprised to hear it. Four hundred Liang... Sure enough, it was their own, but it was different.

Zhao looked at Chu Jinyao and said, ”I'll give you the remaining thirty Liang and keep it yourself.”

Chu Jinyao hesitated for only a moment and then said, ”I'm too young to manage so much money. I'd better bother my mother to take it for me.”

”Take it yourself. I don't lack this money here. You always have to learn this.”

Chu Jinyao still didn't dare to promise. Chu Jinxian said, ”you're old enough to learn to be a housekeeper. Your mother wants to train you. Take it.”

With Chu Jinxian's words, Chu Jinyao was finally relieved. Fu Shen said, ”thank you, mother.”

Zhao asked the servant girl to take the right card and go to the accounting room to pay 30 liang of silver. While the servant girl went back and forth, Zhao beat the girls in the big room: ”My aunt should be back in a few days. I gave you a piece of cloud brocade. You should know the weight. Don't lose the dignity of Changxing marquis in front of my aunt because you don't want to give up things. It's a small loss, do you understand?”

”Yes.” several girls agreed in unison.

Zhao Shi said, ”cloud brocade is a delicate material. If you're not sure that it's light and heavy, send it to the sewing room and ask the embroiderer to make clothes for you. If you have a pattern you like, you can let the embroiderer embroider it together, or you can embroider it yourself. Look at yourself.”

Chu Jinyao agreed with the girls. Although she had no expression on her face, she thought in her heart that she could do clothes, but embroidery? Chu Jinyao thought it was mysterious. Moreover, even if the married daughters were all guests, they were their own aunts after all. Why should they be so close to the enemy and fully armed? All the clothes were made new, not to mention that even the embroidery on the clothes had to be done by Zhao himself Reminder.

Aunt Chu Zhu's return to her mother's house this time is really just a provincial visit? What are she and Mrs. Chu going to do?

Chu Jinyao scoffed at what she said. She didn't have life experience. How could she believe such high sounding lies. Whose money box will be put in the charge of outsiders, saying that it is a check. In the end, it is not coerced. She has seen too many in the village. Her mother-in-law said that she is afraid of her daughter-in-law spending money, so she manages the dowry for her daughter-in-law. The final result is either swallowed or occupied. Her daughter-in-law is pinched with the dowry, so she has to listen to her mother-in-law everywhere. Now, does Chu Jinmiao want to deal with her with the same trick?
