Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 269, forget

The principal figure of 500 taels has been wandering in He Feng's mind since the moment he heard it. He had thought of countless ways to save money. At this time, when he saw the meals on the table, those Ninety-nine percent of frugality is eliminated. When a large family lives together, frugality is actually frugality for everyone. He would like to save food for his son, but he cannot ask the whole family to do the same.

And the clerks in the shop work hard every day, and if you save the teeth and meat, there will be no clerks.

Not everyone in the new episode has meat to eat every day, so Zaohua gives the guys a piece of meat every morning. She thinks it is very generous. This is the treatment for the shopkeeper. The apprentice can only watch and eat It's good to be full.

After eating silently, everyone said that he was tired, after he returned to his room to rest, and then talked about the excitement of going to Beijing, He Feng and his wife went to the room.

A cousin suddenly thought that there was an important matter for He Feng to make a decision, so he chased after him. Seeing that He Feng and his wife closed the door, the cousin wondered: "I came back yesterday and changed my clothes this morning. There's no need to take a bath at home, the weather is cold, it's so enjoyable to take a bath in the bathroom, why close the door properly?"

After walking a few steps, he was about to call the door, when he heard a dull "plop", as if someone had fallen.

"Brother, what happened in your room?"

"It's okay, your sister-in-law made her clothes dirty by cooking, and she overturned the suitcase when she changed her clothes. What's the matter with you?"

"Hegong's errand is here again today, shall we send people or money?"

The river workers are being repaired every year, and the errands are shared nearby. In order to prevent idlers from having troubles during the winter leisure time, according to the past will of the eldest princess, they are more willing to send out people from the people. To some money, the provinces vary according to prices.

Merchants would rather pay money, and they have to hire more people when they are busy, and none of their own people are willing to pay.

The money paid by the merchants is just distributed to the workers.

The He family lived in the market town, and they didn't have the time to be successful. Why did Cousin He Feng ask?They have relatives in the countryside, grown-up boys at home, and strong laborers who are idle. They are willing to work for several people in one family, but only one person is assigned to a family by He Gong. Officials are not allowed to issue official documents. Ordinary country people are afraid to see officials. When they enter the yamen, they will say bad things. Relatives ask each other. If your family does not send people, my family will help someone.

The year before last, the river workers had been allocated, and the He family gave out people, and last year they paid for it. The kid from the country relatives went to the shop as an apprentice. If someone has seriously understood, it is very hard to be an apprentice in such a dynasty. Not to mention the beating of the owner, there may be no enough to eat.

It is a common phenomenon to help the boss take the children to sweep the floor, cook and do all the work.

One might ask, then why bother with an apprenticeship?
Apprentices will be paid as soon as they leave the teacher. Compared with this dynasty, the income from farming depends on the sky and eating. The apprentices have gained experience for several years, and they can work in shops in the same industry. Shopkeeper, the owner has to respect you instead.

Many shopkeepers of large shops have generous year-end dividends. They are the actual power holders of the shops.

In the general understanding of this dynasty, including the fact that most people could not read, if they could not make a fortune by farming, being an apprentice was the first choice for poor children.

read?

Not all places are new collections, and it is rumored that the old man of the Yuan Dynasty only entered Beijing, and he returned a bag of money.

Most people in such a dynasty thought that having a craft can make a living.

This year, the He family will send people or money, this needs to be decided by He Feng after asking his relatives.

He Feng said he understood, and sent his cousin away. During this time, Madam He got up from the ground, supported the back of the chair with both hands, and felt that she would not fall again, and asked tremblingly: "Master, what did you do just now?" Are you telling the truth, more than 2 principal?"

"Twenty-seven thousand, five hundred taels, what can you do with more than 500 taels, where do you put the seven thousand taels?"

Mrs. He's legs went limp again, she almost fell again, she lay on the chair and couldn't move anymore, she whimpered and said: "How can this be saved, Mr. Yuan is so capable, even the family can't do it. Here comes 1 taels."

"Save slowly. Starting today, saving a penny is a penny. I won't make any new clothes today,"

Mrs. He said: "Then what do you wear to worship your ancestors during the Chinese New Year?"

"Wash and starch the old robes,"

"Last year and the year before last, you said you would save money for brother Ning's exams, so you didn't make new clothes. Now you don't have clothes that can be washed and washed." Mrs. He said.

He Feng gritted his teeth: "It's not bad for me to go to Beijing, I'll wear this during the Chinese New Year."

"This is a clothespin."

"Put a jacket inside."

Mrs. He sighed: "That's the only way. I don't make new clothes anymore. Saving some fabric is also money."

He Feng frowned: "Brother Ning, brother Ning has established a family business, why are you sighing?"

Mrs. He sighed and smiled: "I sighed because of your eyesight, and promised me to order green bamboo at night. This is sister Xiu and Yanyan taking care of the daughter-in-law,"

"There's also Sister Hui," He Feng said hurriedly, "You can't forget about Sister Hui, she's rich and powerful, you can't leave it behind."

Speaking of this, He Feng remembered one thing. Sister Ting of the You family was indeed a minority shareholder. He hadn't seen Li Shi in Yuan's house just now, so there was no need to announce the good news to a woman named Li.

He threw it down. This is a happy event for the You family. Master You was in the capital. When he went to Yanyan’s store to look around, He Feng saw him and asked Youzheng if he wanted to bring a letter from home. Youzheng said that he had sent the letter just now. , this trip is unnecessary.

In Mr. You's letter home, he would say it himself.

He Feng continued to talk to his wife about saving money. The principal of more than 2 scares people, but the children have this opportunity, and the husband and wife have to bear it.

If you want to find such an opportunity again, you can't find it anywhere.

Tongyunju is one of the famous restaurants in the capital. Some people say that the owner behind it is the emperor's relatives. The location does not matter. It is located in the inner city and is close to the mansions of dignitaries and nobles. The gentlemen of several palaces often come here to drink. This is where Zheng Liugen entertained his father and the patriarch, there is nothing to say about the food.

The nearest mansions around the royal family are the palace, the county palace, and the princess mansion. The Huguogong mansion is not as close to the palace as the king's mansion, but the princess mansion is located next to the Huguogong mansion, across the two streets of the year, the princess mansion It is also close to the palace.

In addition to the delicious and expensive food and drink, there are also Kabuki dancers, storytellers playing and singing, and there are secret rooms where you can gamble, talk, and discuss things. This is a restaurant with status.

At sunset and dusk, the sky was dyed by the evening glow, and You Zhen followed the gentlemen from the study of Prince Wei's mansion upstairs, listening to the singing and dancing in his ears, his face did not change his sad expression.

How could he have time to write a letter to his family, announcing Sister Hui's kindness to his wife and daughter?In the past few days, he asked Wei Wang's son to resign several times, but Tang Wei rejected them all. He still wanted to serve sister Xiu's son-in-law, Youden, and he forgot the family letter.
