reborn child bride

Chapter 181 Setting up a bureau (2) ([-])
Wei Ying thought for a while, "Let's get people into the mansion to do rough work first, and let Liu Zhun secretly follow your stepmother to see if anyone contacts her."

A Ling whispered: "My father is very angry, and he is very aggressive. My stepmother's face is now bruised and purple, and she can't go into the house to do things." She handed over a bank note, "This is what the man gave me. My stepmother's cash."

In this way, it is not easy to lure the snake out of the hole, and the only way to check it is through this silver ticket.Who is plotting against Shen Ji, I still don't know.It's all possible, it could be the young master or the second wife.And whether the bank note is a fake, if the second wife knows that the young master once blocked the way and wanted to frivolously send someone to pretend to be the person in Zhen Guohou's mansion.But this is the only clue for now.

Shen Ji waved his hand, "Forget it, since that's the case, you go down first."

A Ling retreated guiltily, and Shen Ji said: "Why did I forget to tell you, A Ling's father looks so honest and useless, he wants to beat his wife."

Wei Ying glanced at her, there are only a few people who don't beat their wives these days.

"Forget it, this person will make another move sooner or later. Now, we can only be careful at every step."

"Well, anyway, just trust me."

Wei Ying frowned, "That's not what you said, everyone's mouths make money and burn bones. And the etiquette is so strict for women, the clan elders are really likely to ask you to die to prove your innocence for unnecessary things."

"Then you should just divorce me when the time comes. For the sake of our husband and wife, leave me a way to survive."

Wei Ying looked serious, "I will never let anyone force you to that point. Even if it gets to that point, I would rather be exiled from the clan again than be controlled by others and watch you be forced to die."

Shen Jisheng thought that this matter was not a joke, so he quickly said "huh".

"The issue of the bank note is nothing to bother the two masters, and it is a matter of A Ling's family. Let Guan Meng handle it." Wei Ying said.

Shen Ji thought, why didn't I see it, I didn't see it at all.Well, I'm still looking forward to the sliced ​​​​noodles.

Guan Meng quickly went to Yinzhuang, spent a lot of money in private and drank wine for a few days, and finally asked the young man when he was drunk, that the silver ticket belonged to the residence of Zhen Guohou.He froze immediately, and then hurried back to tell Wei Ying the news.

In the study, Wei Ying frowned and said yes.I didn't catch the boy, so I still can't confirm it.Now there is only strict defense.

In the main room, Mama Gu's expression was not very good, "Grandma, you ask Grandpa to go to the kitchen to knead the dough, if this gets out..."

"So, Mama Gu, you have good access control. You see, Big Brother Wei is not worried that the news will spread from the inner house. Anyway, it is a small kitchen, so it can't get out." Shen Ji really wanted to eat this birthday noodles.

Gu's mother couldn't help being a little proud of what she said. She was very strict about the access control.When the matter of A Ling's stepmother happened again, it became even more severe.What grandma said about high salary and cleanliness is that the monthly rate of the housekeepers at the second gate is higher than that of other places, but if there is a mistake, the penalty is heavier than other places.This is a combination of kindness and strength, and she agrees very much.In this way, a little benefit will never impress them.Because occupying that position is a long-term benefit.

But I can't just let my grandma mess around like that, "I also said that at that time, people will have to entangle my aunt and grandma. Last time I asked her to bump into the small kitchen to cook medicine, this time I have to bump into the grandfather to cook It’s okay to knead the dough.” I couldn’t help but think, Grandpa is too spoiled with grandma.Even if it's a birthday, there's no reason to order a man into the kitchen.

Aunt Wei came over to ask them how they planned to spend their birthdays before.More than ten years ago, it was a bowl of birthday noodles.Last year at this moment Wei Ying was still being tortured in Dali Temple.But why not do it this year, this year is [-] years old, considered an adult.

Wei Ying replied: "My mother's grievances have not been washed away for a day, so I have no reason to celebrate my birthday. A bowl of birthday noodles is fine."

Shen Ji nodded in agreement, "Yes, Auntie, the birthday is also a difficult day for my mother." It's not her birthday at all, it doesn't matter if she can't pass it, the key is Wei Ying.She asked him and he said the same thing. It seemed that he really didn't want to make a fuss, so she just let him go.

Hearing them mention the deceased eldest lady, Aunt Wei couldn't help feeling sad, "Why don't good people get rewarded."

Shen Ji hurriedly patted her on the back and said: "Auntie, as long as Brother Wei is good, parents and mothers will be comforted by the spirits in heaven. This is their good reward."

Thinking of this, Shen Ji was afraid that Aunt Wei would be used by others like last time, so he asked her to come over and told her the bad news that someone bribed A Ling's stepmother to enter the inner house.

"How can they be so vicious and want to use the same tricks to deal with you." Aunt Wei blushed, almost out of anger.Then he said to Shen Ji worriedly: "There are still many people from the old house in this house, I don't know whether to believe it or not, you must be more careful."

"Well, I know." Chen Fu and the others were dismissed by Chen Fu and the others, but the others had no evil deeds. They couldn't just drive out all the servants given by the old house.

Wei Ying said beside him: "I have a colleague who owes some debts and wants to pawn the house handed down by his ancestors to exchange for some cash to pay off the debt. The house is not big, but it is close to the imperial city, otherwise we will pawn it down and move there. on."

Aunt Wei nodded, "It's a good idea. You only bring people you can trust. Not only will you live more simply, but you can also save your time on the road every day without spending money."

Shen Ji blinked, "What's the difference between Dian and Rent?"

Wei Ying explained: "Rent is to pay the rent according to the day, and Dian is to give him money at one time, and he will return the original amount of money on the agreed day and we will return the house to him."

"It's not the same as pawning things, so what if he can't make up the money?" It can't be said that the house will belong to us.

"It can be postponed. I went to drink at his house. The house is old. There are two entrances in total. It's a bit old, but the furniture inside are all good things. It can be very comfortable to live in after tidying up. , on Ziquan Street outside Suzaku Street."

"How much silver does he want to pawn?"

"600 two years."

Shen Ji wondered: "Although your salaries are not high, the outside water and welfare have always been acceptable. There is also a house passed down from your ancestors. How did he get it to this point?"

Wei Ying smiled, although the Hanlin Academy is passable, but it is Qingshui Yamen after all, how can it compare with the real power Yamen.But let's not talk about these official shady scenes.

"His ancestors have passed down a lot of livelihoods, but these generations of talents finally came out of him as an editor of the Imperial Academy, and the careers of several generations of scholars also cost a lot of money. Moreover, there are many scholars who don't know how to make a living. Gradually, All those properties changed hands. Only the ancestral house remained. But he married one wife and three concubines in one go, and several wives and concubines competed with each other, and ended up being unable to make ends meet and owe debts."
