Jiangmen is a beautiful girl

Chapter 135
Wang Meijuan thought about it, it's over, if Tang Xiu, who suffered a thousand dollars, loses the money again, she will have to pay the money out of her own pocket.Now she has secretly transferred a lot of money from the public house, all in her name, how can she spit out what has been swallowed, Wang thought it was only ten taels of silver.

Tang shi didn't panic and argue with Wang shi, and when he didn't see Tang Si during the meal, Tang shi became a little worried. '

After eating, Tang said to Tang Bao: "Good boy, although you are young, you are their elder after all. If your sister is not here, you will lead your nieces and nephews around. Aunt and you Mother and sister-in-law have something to say."

Tang Bao knew that Tang was trying to dismiss her, so she looked at Wang, who nodded.

Wang's heart is not good, and this aunt is going to reprimand her again. If the younger generations of the Jiang family see that it is inappropriate, they will nod and agree.

Tang gave Jiang E a wink in private, and Jiang E immediately understood.

Only Tang family, Jiang Mei's mother Qiu family, Wang family and daughter-in-law Nian family and Yuan family remained in the hall.

"Sister-in-law, you are not an outsider. This time my father celebrated his birthday, and my sister-in-law has worked hard. Although I am married, I am my father's own daughter after all. I just wanted to ask about my father's birthday celebration, and see where I can help .”

Mrs. Wang was a little hesitant, and said to herself, as long as you just pay for it, that would be the greatest help, but she also felt that sister-in-law was a little too nosy.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang didn't speak, Mrs. Tang asked herself: "Sister-in-law may be too busy and don't have a clue for a while, so why don't I ask, and sister-in-law answer?"

"Seventy is a happy birthday, I wonder how many tables my sister-in-law has prepared?"

"Three, thirty tables?"

A 70-year-old man who lives only [-] tables?Seventy is rare since ancient times, and seventy in ancient times is as rare as one hundred in modern times.Not to mention three days of running water seats, at least the number of tables must not be less, what is thirty enough to sit on?
Calculated by the number of people, the Jiang family and the Tang family have four or five tables. What's the use of thirty tables? Neighbors around this kind of longevity will come to congratulate them. Wang's holding thirty tables is like child's play.

"Thirty tables may not be appropriate, right? Not to mention the neighbors, even relatives, there are almost [-] tables here. Now there are only [-] tables, why don't you tell the neighbors not to come?"

"Shouldn't it be squeezed a little bit?"

Tang knew that Wang was used to filling his own pockets, but when he was actually doing business, the money he spent from the company was like spending her money.

"Even if it's crowded, let me ask, how many dishes to order before meals? How many cold dishes, hot dishes, steamed vegetables? How many fruits after meals?"

Mrs. Wang didn't speak, and she handed over all these to her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Yuan, to take care of them.

The Yuan family is also a pungent master. She sees the Tang family for nothing. Before marrying in, the Tang family boasted about how rich and powerful they were, and the one who married was the son of his wife's wife. Marrying in is a blessing.After marrying in, I realized that my mother-in-law was supported by my concubine, and my husband-in-law looks like a dog, but he fights dogs and fishes all day long, is addicted to gambling, and does not do his job properly.

She lost a lot of her private money and dowry. For this reason, the two often quarreled and scolded.

Now that the old man is going to celebrate his birthday, Mrs. Wang asked her to be in charge of the kitchen, and even handed over matters such as buying vegetables and side dishes to her, and only bought 300 tables of noodles for [-] taels, and one table of noodles was only ten taels of silver.It also needs to include more firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. The mother-in-law just doesn't want to use the money to make a good meal, not to let her have half of the oil and water. Not to mention, the meal of ten taels of silver is really embarrassing and embarrassing, and she wants her to pay it back .

Mrs. Yuan is the fish seller of the Yuan family in the street market. Mrs. Wang valued the Yuan family's business back then.

Yuan's is also good at settling accounts, the money is deducted so much, thinking that when she married in, the old man treated her fairly well, never treated her badly, so she didn't want to make money from it, and calculated it honestly. How to make the table look decent.

She said: "Go back to my aunt, order two dishes before dinner, peanuts and half plums. The cold dishes are four butterflies, which are cold three shredded, cold dried tofu, mixed cucumber and pork head meat. Eight hot dishes, braised pork knuckle, braised mutton, braised pork Stir-fried baby spinach with fish and bacon, stewed chicken with mushrooms, pork skin and winter melon soup, fried shredded radish and shredded potatoes.”

"That's enough, second nephew and daughter-in-law, what's your standard for each table?"

"Twelve."

The Tang family looked at the Wang family: "Is this how my sister-in-law congratulates my father? When did the Tang family fall to such a state?"

"Auntie, you don't know, the family's expenses are high, the husband, the eldest and the young master are not involved in production, the harvest in the fields is small, and those tenants bully me, a woman, and I am short of money. The business of the shop is not good. Well, there are still two shops that are running at a loss. I have worked very hard these years, and the whole family is waiting to ask me for money. I..."

As he spoke, he pretended to cry.

Although Yuan Shi is aggressive, her character is not bad. She looks down on her mother-in-law the most in her heart. Seeing her pretentiousness, Yuan Shi rolled her eyes.

Mrs. Qiu is also a daughter-in-law under the Mrs. Tang. Even if Mrs. Tang scolds her sometimes, it is useless, she will still delegate the power to Mrs. Qiu to deal with family matters, and only ask Mrs. Tang if she is in doubt. Usually, the two daughters-in-law are both present and capable, but they never let go, making it difficult for the daughter-in-law to do it.

But the family power is in the hands of Tang Lianshan's successor, the Wang family. The Wang family is selfish, low-profile, and greedy, and the family is in a mess.Several times Nian Shi wanted to help take care of the family affairs, but was blocked by Wang Shi as a mother-in-law, and Nian Shi was not allowed to get any power.

Therefore, the Nian family only lived on the few taels of silver given by the father-in-law every month and his own dowry.Because her husband, Tang Zhi, has to study and has two sons to support, life is very tight.

Tang is not the kind of person who will be confused if you mess around with her. It's useless for Jiang Qing to fight in front of her because of Zhao Yansui's marriage.

"My sister-in-law has few tables, and I hope that more people will squeeze in, but this table is so poor and outrageous. Although my Tang family is declining day by day, there is no reason to let guests squeeze the table. Is it possible? Is this how my sister-in-law is in charge of the family? Don’t complain to me. The Tang family has 500 acres of fertile land, more than 800 acres of fertile land, and 200 acres of barren land. No matter what, the annual harvest is [-] taels. There are four grain and oil shops, and four for rent. What's more, it's around [-] taels. So the Tang family's annual harvest is at least [-] taels."

"Eldest nephew and daughter-in-law, how much is your monthly rent for a house? How much is your eldest sister?"

Nian has studied for two years, is gentle and capable, but cowardly and does not fight or grab. Wang bullies them on weekdays and only gives two taels of silver a month, which is used by the whole family.But Nian is also a character who turns big things into small things, so he said in ignorance of the facts: "Four taels of silver. The younger sisters are not married, half a silver."

Wang stared at Nian with wide eyes, and when Nian said something, Wang finally felt at ease.

"What, you two are four, our second room is only three, mother, can't you be partial to the eldest?" Yuan Shi quit immediately, and quarreled: "I won't do it, why should your eldest room be four, and our second room was born by mother The one in my family is only three or two, and the one in my family is not doing business all day long, I want to make peace with him."
