Concubine Hanhan's Concubine Gongdou

Chapter 934

After counting the utensils, Lianhua flipped through the inventory book and found that all the accounts for the dish were finished. There was nothing left to calculate, so she asked Xiaojizi to put away the rearranged warehouse booklet, took out another account book, and started counting The silver that was rewarded to the slaves during the Chinese New Year came.

"...This year is not suitable for a big event. The original program is cancelled, and many expenses are gone. This is good. Everyone has worked hard for a year, and will give out [-]% of the cut expenses to reward Give it to the big guys, reward them according to their rank and responsibility, and make the big guys secretly happy."

As she talked, she began to count, how many people did she have, how many people were under the name of Nanny Qi, how many people often came to run errands in the Hall of Stars, how many red envelopes were divided into, how many people needed for each class, and how many people were there? How much scattered silver needs to be exchanged in total.

After finishing the calculation, Lianhua wrote a note, telling Xiao Jizi to lead Da Zhuang and others to the warehouse to collect the silver, and then bring a basket to the Shang Palace Bureau to exchange the broken silver. I will finish this matter today and give it to everyone tomorrow morning The guy has a red seal.

Xiaojizi took the order and took the note and put it away.

In this way, Lianhua pulled out how much rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, and vegetables the whole yard needs to use for the New Year, and put them on a plate. What kind of dishes are made every day, how many people serve, how to arrange the soup, how to arrange the extra meals, and how to arrange the extra meals. The amount of money was calculated and explained one by one. She even calculated it until the Lantern Festival, and it was finished in a short time.

After closing the booklet, Lianhua was at a loss. Why is this matter so careless?
Her addiction to settling accounts has not disappeared, and the work is over. Of course, this addiction may not disappear for the rest of her life. Now she is very familiar with handling the affairs of Canglan Courtyard. The clock will be able to deal with it.

Not satisfied, she started to toss and pull out the accounts that Nanny Qi had recorded before, and checked the items in the warehouse again, and rearranged all the affairs of Canglan Courtyard, and gave each transaction The scope of expenses was delineated, the scope of responsibility was redefined for each servant, etc., and the New Year's affairs were specially pulled out and counted several times, but it was still done quickly.

The official business was officially finished, Lianhua asked Xiaojizi and the others to go out to run errands, she tidied up all the things on the table, one couldn't hold back, took out one of the books and put it in front of her, flipped through it carefully, and looked at it happily How much assets do I have now, and how much money I have saved in a year.

On this day last year, she and Xiaoqing were pitifully warming up around the stove in the side hall, thinking about how to eat every day, what kind of dumplings to make for New Year's Eve and New Year, how to get enough to eat, and how poor they were.

Today this year, eating and drinking well every day is not a problem, and there is a surplus of nearly 1 taels of silver in the account, which is something that Lianhua never dared to think about before.

In addition to her monthly silver, the money in it also includes the silver she won by throwing pots, which can almost cover her monthly silver for a year, and most of the rest are rewards from the emperor and subsidies from Nanny Qi. The rewards and subsidies are far greater. For the daily expenses of Canglan Courtyard, more and more money was collected. The money that was given to the emperor to pay off the debts of her parents was returned later by the emperor, so Lianhua is now a little rich woman.

Looking at the money can make people feel good, Lianhua touched the account book and sighed like a dog: "Everyone in the world knows the emperor's kindness, and this statement is true. Now I can lead my little ones to live a good life with plenty of food and clothing, thanks to Long live Lord's Ron, and grandma, grandma is not bad either, hahaha..." He grinned so hard that he couldn't see his teeth.

Hearing the words, the emperor raised his eyes and glanced at her, and scolded with a smile: "Little money fan, you have lost your money, and you are bought with such a small amount of money?"

Lianhua turned her head to look at the emperor, closed the ledger, got up and walked over, and said happily: "Long live Lord, this statement is wrong. I am very determined. How can I buy it with ordinary money? Alas, I can only blame the Lord for being so kind. Not only is it good-looking, but even the silver you reward is different, it is very pleasing to the eye, I can't resist it, there is no other way."

The emperor laughed heartily, put down the book and reached out to pinch her cheek: "Naughty, do you feel better today?"

Hearing this question, Lianhua's eyebrows drooped, she walked to the side of the small couch and sat down next to the emperor: "Oh, Xiaoqing is not here, sister Defei is not here, and grandma can't see her, so it's okay if you have something to do. Empty. I haven't seen grandma for a long time, and tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I wonder if I can spend it with grandma?"

Nanny Qi was afraid that her wind and cold would infect Lianhua and the emperor, so she never went to the main hall, and Lianhua was not allowed to approach the side hall, so they haven't seen each other for seven or eight days.

The emperor embraced her: "Yesterday, I asked the imperial doctor, and Madam Qi's wind and cold have almost recovered, and I think it will be all right tomorrow."

Lianhua frowned a little, thought of something, and twisted again: "Sister Defei doesn't know what's wrong with her? It's freezing cold now, my sister is going to such a cold place, I heard that the splashing water in Liaobei turns into ice, why not?" There is heavy snow blocking the mountains, and the road is rough and difficult, alas, my sister is too anxious, but I can't persuade..."

Master Lianhua traveled all over the country, all of them postponed their return to Sichuan due to heavy snow and frozen rivers, and shipping was blocked. However, Concubine Xu De suddenly wanted to go further north. How could Lianhua not be worried?

The emperor rubbed her head: "Xu Rongying grew up with Xu Hu in the army since she was a child, and has been in the army for many years. She has led troops to rush in harsh environments many times. She has gone through all kinds of roads and is very good at navigating harsh terrains. The terrain is fast, so nothing will happen. She has been to Liaobei area before, and she knows the situation there very well, and she has made sufficient preparations before leaving, not to mention that she has personal guards to protect her, and Xu Hu also sent veterans Come along, don't worry, your sister Defei will be fine."

"What Long Live Lord said is that I hope everything goes well for my sister." Lian Hua felt a little relieved, she hoped that Concubine Xu De would be well and get what she wanted.

Lianhua can understand why Concubine Xu De is so anxious. Shen Ming's death has greatly affected her. After so many years of suffering, she suddenly heard the news that someone found a person like Shen Ming at the border. Let Concubine Xu De continue to wait in Beijing, it is tantamount to another kind of torture.

Lianhua leaned against the emperor's arms, playing with his hair, and then said: "Long Live Lord, can you ask that fat eunuch to let Xiaoqing come back for a new year?" She missed Xiaoqing, and wondered how Xiaoqing was doing. .

Before, Xiaojizi brought Xiaoqing to ask for orders suddenly, saying that Xiaoqing wanted to try to learn martial arts, so that he could protect Lianhua in the future and let Lianhua agree.

As for why Xiaoqing started to practice martial arts, one day, Hu Miaomiao accidentally met Xiaoqing who lifted the water tank upside down by himself, and poured out the ice that had formed in the water tank.
