MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 14 Look at the ledger
Chapter 14 Look at the Ledger
Under the strong arrangement of the eldest lady, Su Rong moved out of the small courtyard and moved into the west courtyard of the eldest lady.
The eldest lady is a formidable character. In just three days, she built her west courtyard into the Nuanxiang Pavilion back then.
From the first day she moved in, Su Rong watched her instructing people to move things one by one to the west courtyard. She was sitting on the steps, with her chin resting on her shoulders, looking at a person who used to save dowries for concubines, but now she was so willing, it showed that she really valued her marriage, and it was finally the first time she took the initiative to spend money on her.
She has a little memory of her mother, but she only remembers that she was a gentle and restrained woman who embroidered clothes for her under the dim light, always with a little bit of sadness on her face, and just before she died, she spit out to her that she had a marriage contract, which she kept in mind, and then she closed her eyes like that.
The eldest lady is completely different from her own mother. She is not gentle at all, she likes to put on a sullen face, but she is aggressive and flamboyant. The first time she fought with someone, she said that she fought well. Our concubine has no reason to be bullied. He also taught all the aunts and sisters that as long as they enter this family and are born in this family, they must be harmonious, and whoever dares to look down on others will be beaten out with sticks.
But she was born with a dark heart, and she likes to bully others. She not only fights with outsiders, but also bullies her own family. To this family, she is a piece of stinky meat. The eldest lady wants to kick her out every time, but she always says what she means, and her words don't count.
Hey, actually, she doesn't know, she has thought many times that it would be great if she really kicked her out.
"If you want to bask in the sun, you also need to wear a veil. Your face is still not healed, so you can't be exposed to the sun. Why do you keep forgetting?" The eldest lady came over to check all the decorations, and took the opportunity to teach Su Rong a lesson.
Su Rong sighed, took out the crumpled veil from her bosom, unfolded it, and covered her face.
She was already thin, and she was nestled under the window, bored, looking like a small ball, obedient and obedient, quite pleasing.
The eldest lady smiled, thinking that she should have done this if she knew that this little thing would be soft or hard. How could he be so angry with her all these years?
The eldest lady inspected the inside and outside of the house, and pointed out a few unsatisfactory points, and appointed someone to continue to add and repair, before calling Su Rong, "Come on, follow me to see the account book. You have been preparing for three days, and you should be ready."
Su Rong: "..."
She never wanted to prepare for such a troublesome account book.
She sat still, trying to convince the eldest lady, "Mother, Zhou Gu is the fourth in the Zhou family. There are three older brothers, grandmother and mother, and elder sister-in-law. Even if I get married, I won't be the housekeeper, right? You taught me this, isn't it too much?"
"What's extra? When you married, even though you were a grand lord, you still had to take care of the family in your own small courtyard. Also, he won't have a title to inherit in the future, so you two can't lick your cheeks and let others raise you, right? You have to start your own family, right? When you get a share of the family property, you will be the mistress of the family. Don't you care about the family? As you are now, you are a big waste of money. How much gold and silver are not enough for you to lose? If you don't learn how to run a house? Only you learn, Only then did I know that if you are not in charge of the family, you don’t know how expensive firewood is. Only then can you learn to live."
Su Rong asked her soul: "Then after I learn to be a housekeeper, what should I do if I can't control Zhou Gu's prodigal family?"
The eldest lady choked.
Su Rong said again: "Mother, are you thinking too much? Zhou Gu is robbing women, and the rumors about robbing have spread to Jiangning. It can be seen that he himself is also a prodigal, and he may not be able to live. I have worked so hard to manage the house. In the end, I can't waste money. Is it easy for him to waste it?"
Madam: "..."
She took a deep breath, "Husbands and wives can influence each other, so can't you be confident that you can control him?"
Su Rong sighed, "I can't even control myself, how can I control others?"
Madam: "..."
The well-behaved, cute and lovable girl just now was an illusion, and it really is that annoying dead girl.
She didn't want to talk nonsense with her, "Let's go, anyway, you can't overwhelm yourself with too many skills, whether you can use it or not, you have to learn this thing. It's your own business to drink the northwest wind in the future, not that I didn't teach you."
Su Rong had no choice but to follow her obediently. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Yuewan covering her mouth and snickering. She immediately said, "Mother, I'll learn. Does Yuewan also want to learn?"
Yuewan's snickering instantly turned into panic.
Su Rong didn't let her go, "She will marry with me in the future, right? My housekeeper, will she also help me?"
"Yes, yes." The eldest lady nodded, "Yuewan, come here and learn with your young lady."
Moon bend: "..."
With a mournful face, she answered yes lazily, and could only keep up with the eldest lady.
The eldest lady was angry and laughed in her heart, this pair of master and servant is really a virtue.
After Zhou Gu moved into Jiangning, he stayed in the mansion that day. After bathing and changing, it was naturally impossible to rest, but went directly to the street.
At night in Jiangning, the city of lights is like day, but there is no curfew here, and the market is not closed at night, which really surprised Zhou Gu. Even the capital is so prosperous, except for the New Year's Day, when the night comes, there will be a curfew, the city gates will be closed, and the market will also be closed.
Zhou Gu was surprised, "The market here is really open at night."
Zi Ye nodded, "The travel notes are not bad at all."
"A lot of snacks." Zhou Gu came out without even eating dinner. He originally wanted to choose a restaurant to order food, but seeing so many snacks on the street, and he hadn't seen it before, he couldn't help but think about it.
Zi Ye was also greedy, "My lord, that looks delicious, shall we have two skewers?"
"OK!"
"Master, that one, and that one, let's try them all?"
"OK!"
"Young master, there are many people queuing up for the meat bun in front! Shall we go too?"
"Um."
So, the two ate while walking, and the guards who followed paid the money. After walking out of a street, they managed to eat enough.
Zi Ye clutched his stomach, "Well, my lord, I can't eat anymore."
"I can't eat anymore." Zhou Gu glanced back at the guards following him, and the guards also shook their heads at him with expressions full of hunger.
Zhou Gu looked at the long snack street in front of him, and said in surprise, "Let's change lanes? Take another street."
Zi Ye was reluctant, "Shall we come back tomorrow?"
"Come."
Zi Ye was relieved, and immediately followed Zhou Gu to change to a small commodity street, cutting off the temptation of delicious food.
