Chapter 1014 Miscalculation
Unexpectedly, the treasurer Qin came, but he didn't bring the account books.

What do you mean that there is no money in the books, and all the profits of these years have been invested in buying Zhuangzi and shops. Now there are three thousand silver left in the books, and some uncollected accounts of more than 2000 taels, which are just for the young lady. Private money at the bottom of the box.

Now there is another farm in Sanxing Village in the northern suburbs, with [-] mu of high-quality fertile land and [-] mu of mountain land, and five shops of different sizes, two selling silk and fine cloth, two small grocery stores, and one tea shop.

It has to be said that Master Qin is a person who is very good at doing business, and he manages the business very well. With such achievements, no one can say that he is corrupt.

Before Mrs. Meng could speak, the shopkeeper Qin said steadily: "Please rest assured, Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Guo. The old lady also had something to say back then. After the eldest lady gets married, all these things will be handed over to the eldest lady. By then The villain will sort out all the things, at least six dowries, and the villain will mark that these are left by Mrs. Qin to the eldest lady. Mrs. Qin loves daughters very much. The villain must do something for the wife. The lady is in the spirit of heaven. I'm so relieved, otherwise the villain would feel uneasy!"

Xu Guogong didn't think there was anything wrong, so he nodded: "If that's the case, then let's do it like this!"

He also has no idea about what the former lady produced.

Mrs. Meng still wanted to speak, but the shopkeeper Qin had already kowtowed and resigned.

Meng held her breath in her heart, tried her best to slow it down, and then she didn't burst out. She turned her head and said to Xu Guogong: "Master, do you trust this shopkeeper so much? They say that money touches people's hearts, so many fertile fields, so many Holding the shop in my hand, after so many years, even a hard-hearted person will be tempted! I don't believe he is different from others!"

Xu Guogong said indifferently: "Whether he did it or not, anyway, you and I have never touched those things. It's Yiyun's business, let her make up her own theory!"

Originally, Xu Guogong had some sympathy for his ex-wife, but Meng couldn't help provoking her again and again intentionally or unintentionally over the years.

Especially the fertile land and the shop. If it sounds good, it is Qin's love for his daughter. If it is bad, it means that he can't trust his husband. How can Xu Guogong feel better?

Therefore, she was particularly reluctant to mention this matter to Meng Shi, and he felt awkward when he heard it.

Meng was furious, and said with a sneer, "It's even better now! Originally, I thought it would be nice to take back all those things and count them as the dowry of our Duke's mansion! But now, even Qin If what Sister Shi gave us is not as good as what Sister Qin gave, what face do we have? Others don’t know how to poke their backs! I want to give her a hundred and eighty thousand, where does the money come from!"

Xu Guogong felt a little regretful after hearing this, and said with a frown, "Since that's the case, I'll ask the butler to go there tomorrow and tell Shopkeeper Qin that all the things should be brought here! Anyway, they are all for Yiyun, so why should they be so clearly divided?" !"

Only then did Meng shi heave a sigh of relief, and said: "It's not too bad!" Her heart felt sour again: In the past ten years, the profit has doubled, but this is in the capital, and buying a good shop is not cheap!That girl really stepped on **** luck!

Mrs. Meng sighed again, and said: "Send her Shun Shun Dang out of the door, my stepmother has accomplished a great event! With so much property in my hand, it is enough to ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life! Yes I can also explain to the elder sister of the Qin family in the first place!"

Xu Guogong couldn't help but sigh with emotion, especially thinking of how disrespectful and disrespectful this incompetent eldest daughter has been to his stepmother and how he has not been educated over the years. Yes, I know that you are a virtuous person with a big heart, and I have wronged you all these years! When she goes out, whether it is good or bad, it is her fortune, and I can't blame you!"

Meng sneered coldly in her heart, and said in her heart: Blame me?This is simply nonsense!I wish she had a bad life!
On the face, he was very grateful, nodded and said softly: "It's good that the master can understand my difficulties!"

As she spoke, she sighed again: "Who told me to be a stepmother? If you really don't say a few words, it's not normal! I'm not wronged, it's Zhen'er, Mrs. Xinyang Hou Shizi, it sounds nice, but in reality I'm afraid that Xinyanghou's Mansion will not be able to come up with a dowry gift like the Lian family's, and we may not have so much money to buy better things for Zhen'er! This child has always been sensible, but he said he didn't mind comforting me. The heart of being a mother is really—"

Meng shi sighed again and again.

Xu Guogong also sighed for a while, feeling a little sorry for this well-behaved daughter.

Intentionally or unintentionally, Mrs. Meng laughed again, and said with a smile: "It's funny to say, this girl saw so many betrothal gifts from Lian's family, and there were one or two pieces of jewelry and decorations that she couldn't move her eyes. What! But that is to be Yun’er’s dowry, so how can I give it to her!”

Xu Guogong was full of love for his little daughter, and thought of the long dowry list sent by Lian's family, he said disapprovingly: "That is to say, but from now on, Ke Yiyun will only be the wife of a small military officer, and she will be the wife of a small military officer. Few, low-level, how much can clothes and jewelry be used? I think so much dowry is enough for her to spend her whole life! It’s okay to even give Zhen’er a few pieces!”

Mrs. Meng was overjoyed, but she smiled "Ouch", and said with a half-serious and half-joking smile: "This is what the master said, but I can't say it!"

This made Xu Guogong laugh, and he said with a casual smile: "Since you said that, I'll talk to Yiyun later, and I'll go see her too!"

As a daughter, she will soon leave the cabinet. As a father, I should go and have a look.

Meng Shi naturally smiled and said yes, and inevitably added: "By the way, ask her, but it's of no use if it's short, and if it's short, call someone to tell me!"

Xu Guogong agreed with a smile, and felt that his wife was virtuous.

Not long after dinner, Xu Guogong really went to Xu Yiyun's place.

Xu Yiyun was stunned, and sneered slightly: This is really rare!Then she took Mother Lu, Binglu and Bingmei to welcome them out.

The father and daughter seldom talk, and there seems to be no such situation where there are no other family members present and only the two of them.

After Xu Yiyun saluted and greeted each other, they exchanged a few words of greetings, and then they were silent.

Xu Guogong coughed unnaturally, then smiled and said: "The Lian family's dowry has been delivered two days ago, it is very generous, you should know it too? It means that the Lian family values ​​you very much."
