Chapter 60:

Just in case, Zhuyuan dismembered all the cakes in the small basket.
There is nothing unusual, and no notes are hidden.
Zhu Yuan touched her chin. Could it be an addition?
Humph, it's okay to not eat!
Thinking about it this way, Zhu Yuan swept it into the wastebasket decisively-no way, the old house in Beijing is small, so naturally she can't have her own study like in Wuxian. The girls of the Zhu family will add a screen to their room to separate a part of it as a study room. Naturally, there is also a wastebasket next to her desk. Worrying about the bugs and ants, she didn't forget to wrap all the scraps in the basket with wrapping cloth before throwing it in.
When it was over, she clapped her hands and happily touched the bank notes one by one, and then put them into the cash box-looking back, she had to find time to sew a few more wallet-hidden bank notes.
As soon as it was closed, I heard voices outside.
Xiaoman is back.
Zhu Yuan hastily walked over and pulled the latch open, then ran back to the table to grab the pen.
"Girl..." Xiao Man opened the door and walked up nervously, "I didn't hold the brazier."
Zhu Yuan was surprised: "Why didn't you hold it? Isn't there in the kitchen?"
"The kitchen said that it was not cold now, and the charcoal basins were all put in the warehouse. The slaves went to the warehouse again. The warehouse said that they had never heard of any girl who set a brazier in the house and refused to give it."
Good guy, Zhu Yuan stopped pretending immediately, threw the pen away, and clapped his hands: "Go, I'll go to the storeroom with you." Just raised her foot, thought of something, she quickly turned back and pointed to the package in the waste basket. "Who gave you this thing?"
She has to see how great some people are.
Xiao Man shook his head: "I don't know the slave and maid, but a woman in the house stuffed me. I asked her what her name was, and she hushed me, so I won't say anything."
Zhu Yuan:...
Although Zhu's family is not a high-ranking family, it is also home to two officials. Someone who can put people in Zhu's house... the identity of a dog egg
Pooh!
She didn't know and didn't want to know.
The most urgent task is to teach the maid. Zhu Yuan stared at Xiaoman: "You dare to go next without knowing anything? Are you not afraid of someone throwing something in to ruin my reputation?"
Xiaoman was shocked: "Will there be a bad reputation?"
Zhu Yuan wiped her face. She thought she was casual enough, this girl... OK, after all, she was a girl bought in Wu County, and Xia Zhi didn't have time to teach it.
Zhu Yuan broke up this kind of thing and told her, and then said all the possible results again.
Xiao Man was stunned: "Are big families like this...?" She couldn't say anything about it.
Zhu Yuan nodded and threatened: "These are all terrible tricks. You can't pick up other people's things randomly in the future, you know?"
Xiaoman swallowed and nodded repeatedly.
Zhu Yuan then gave up: "Let's go and get a basin." She didn't believe it, she didn't get a charcoal-burning thing!
Not to mention how she taught her servants in the warehouse, but Xiaotan Shou got it smoothly.
As soon as she turned back, it happened to be dinner again, so she casually mentioned something to her mother.
Zhang Jingshu's face suddenly sank.
Zhu Yuan:...
What seems to be done wrong?

Early the next morning, everyone gathered at the Changfuyuan again.
After the salute and seated, Zhang Jingshu took the tea cup and took a sip, then put it down, and said with a smile: "We have been away in the second room a few years ago. Now that we are back, this family business should also be dealt with." No response from everyone. When she came over, she looked at Wang Yuxin, "How much did the sister-in-law pay in previous years? Let's pay more than yours."
Wang Yuxin was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously looked at Mrs. Zhu.
The latter coughed lightly and said, "There are farm shops at home, and you can spend a few dollars for food...but you are all back, and you have to go out of the public office when you go back. There are not many other things in the capital, but the red tape. Seeing the sky, it costs a lot...Well, let’s give 70% of the salaries for Xiuqi, and you will keep the rest. If you have to buy something everyday, you won’t be able to pay for it."
Zhang Jingshu seemed a little surprised: "Sister-in-law gave so much in previous years!" Then she was a little embarrassed, "We have just returned, and we have spent a lot on the road, and we don't have that much money on hand, and it's almost April... mother, or else Let's give it less this year? Give it 50%. What do you think?"
Mrs. Zhu hesitated a little, and nodded: "OK."
Zhang Jingshu immediately became happy: "Then I'll let someone deliver it to you-eh, look at me, it's all in the mind, I'll send it to Shi'antang later." It is Wang Yuxin who is in charge now.
Old lady Zhu nodded, and Wang Yuxin smiled rather reservedly.
"After paying the money, my heart is settled." Zhang Jingshu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. "Yesterday Yuanyuan told me that I couldn't get a charcoal basin from the storeroom. I thought, the housekeeper is so powerful. There won’t be those little guys who stepped high and praised low. From this point of view, the family is afraid it is very rare..." She sighed, "Unfortunately, our grandfather’s salary is too small, otherwise I really want to help the family more."
I wish the old lady and Wang Yuxin were a little uncomfortable, especially the latter, their cheeks flushed.
Zhu Yuan, who was sitting at the bottom, couldn't help but applaud in her heart. At first, she thought that my old lady couldn't think of giving people money stupidly... But then she thought about it, her father’s salary, used for food, plus monthly silver, will be enough every year, and only seven will be paid in the future. Yes, everything goes out of the public, and they save 30%.
The most important thing is that there is no reason for their family to eat or use something in the future. In the future, if the father-in-law dared to say that there was no money, her mother would dare to go to the account with the right words-his father and mother had been in the office for nearly six years, and Dafang might not have paid the money to the father-in-law, and she might even have made money from the father-in-law. less.
How can Wang Yuxin, who is in charge of the accounts, dare to deduct them?
What is rigid? Her mother is besieging Wei to save Zhao, screaming at each other, and making a series of tricks... Oh, what kind of scheme, anyway, it is high!
In contrast, she is still too tender! ! !
Ah~~~The days with a mother are happy~~~
She was desperately blowing rainbow farts to her mother, but the atmosphere in the room was a little weird.
Zhu Yue looked at something wrong, smiled and interrupted: "This is almost April, why does Yuan'er need a charcoal basin? Is she so weak?"
Zhang Jingshu coldly said, "Yuanyuan is in good health."
Zhu Yue was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at Wang Yuxin, who hurriedly said: "My Yueer just said casually--"
"It's all about talking about marriage. It's not good for Yue'er to be so unobtrusive. Sister-in-law is too free to teach." Zhang Jingshu's expression was light.
The faces of Wang Yuxin's mother and daughter were a little ugly.
"Also, who said that the charcoal stove must be used for heating? My family Yuanyuan has already said that it is used to burn manuscript paper. Sister-in-law does not read much, and you have been studying for several years. You must have heard of it, \'text After completion, the sky is the raindrops, the ghosts cry for the night, and the dragons are hidden\'. Cherish the calligraphy paper and cannot be defiled. Therefore, since ancient times, there have been pagodas and incinerators. The paper after learning the characters is burned as soon as possible. To burn the paper, the small charcoal furnace is naturally used..." Zhang Jingshu sighed and said with good faith, "On weekdays, don’t always read the Four Books, Five Classics, Three Obeys and Four Virtues, and read other books. , The horizon should be broadened."
These words are tantamount to slapping Zhu Yue in the face.
Wang Yuxin's mother and daughter's faces were dark, but they couldn't say a word.
Mrs. Zhu, who reads less, can't draw any major rebuttals, and can only hear that the second room has given a training to the girl in the big room. She was a little unhappy: "Well, what do you teach her to do. In the future, some% Tingzhou may have to rely on her to speak nice things—"
"Mother, don't say anything." Zhang Jingshu interrupted her, "Yue'er is still young and ignorant, don't you know it? The royal selection of a daughter-in-law does not look at the family and family, but the most important thing is the rules. Talking about what to do with the royal family, I'm afraid it will make others laugh out loud."
Wang Yuxin is anxious: "Why is my Yueer unruly?"
Zhang Jingshu looked at her: "Then don't mention it again." Her tone was gentle, but her words came out sonorously, "If the Qin family or the palace really had a meaning, Yue'er would be sixteen, they should have passed on it. Come over and keep it, why hasn't there been any news so far, is it possible that people are running away?" It's not without meaning. Wang Yuxin is stupid, I wish the old lady is not stupid, I am afraid it is not being coaxed.
Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, the old lady Zhu fell into thought.
Wang Yuxin was furious, but didn't know where to start.
In this state, there will be nothing to talk about next, and the old lady Zhu simply let everyone go.
After leaving the Changfuyuan and returning to her yard, Zhang Jingshu first comforted everyone. If you want to live in peace of mind, you can ask for anything if you don’t need it. If you don’t have it, you will find her... This is actually aimed at Yin Huan and Zhu Ying. . If the two of them didn't look at them, they wouldn't be able to raise them if they were hungry.
After she said she let everyone go.
Afraid that Zhu Tingzhou would be stupid, Zhu Yuan dragged people to the corner and broke apart the conversation in Changfuyuan just now to explain to him. After that, he was a little depressed.
Zhu Yuan can ignore him. A sixteen-year-old boy is about to become a biological baby in this era, but he can’t be naive. There is a mother in the family and a daughter-in-law. It’s good to say that he will have to take the imperial examination in the future. I don’t know how to become an official. ?
Seeing that he still couldn't think about it, Zhu Yuan simply threw the teachings of Zhu Ying and Zhu Tingfang to him-anyway, his academy has not been set yet, and he is idle.
After that, she leaned over to Zhang Jingshu's side: "Mother, you are amazing!!"
Zhang Jingshu smiled: "Learn a little, don't just follow the stove every day."
Zhu Yuan nodded desperately: "Study, I will learn from you in the future." After that, she couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that you are really wronged in Wuxian. There is no place for you to play."
Zhang Jingshu:...
Then give her a shudder.
Zhu Yuan whispered over her forehead, then laughed again, and asked, "Mother, how do you know that the third prince doesn't like the second sister?"
Zhang Jingshu snorted coldly, looked around, and lowered her voice: "Have you forgotten? When we were in Luzhou, the Qin family was after you."
Zhu Yuan:...
"What does this have to do with me? Isn't that just aunt Xin's wishful thinking?" she protested.
"Then I don't care. Who made her say that you are weak, if she hadn't robbed you of your maid and got you a black girl, you wouldn't fall into the water and get sick!" Zhang Jingshu gritted his teeth, "I should have seen them through. Scornful."
At that time, the original owner was only nine years old, and I wish Xiuqi and his wife had been away for more than a year. The maidservant beside the original owner was personally trained by Zhang Jingshu, clever, smart, attentive and considerate, and it was just right to stay and take care of them.
I don't know what Zhu Yue thinks, but because of her young age, she asked the girl to roll around. However, the old lady Zhu and Wang Yuxin moved them away and randomly changed a kitchen burning girl to Zhu Yuan.
After that, the second room left behind in Beijing often didn't have enough to eat.
Dafang Xu didn't know, or didn't care about it, after all, the enmity in the second room had grown up.
Zhu Yuan shuddered instantly thinking about that period of time and the bitter medicine dregs of nearly a year.
Zhang Jingshu noticed, and quickly took her hand to comfort her.
This topic is skipped.
I wish Dome return to his house with memories full of bitter medicine scum.
As soon as he entered the yard, he was nervously pulled into the house by the summer solstice, closed the door and dropped the bar.
"What's the matter?" Zhu Yuan was inexplicable.
Xia Zhi took out a small basket of delicate bamboo strips from the corner, and said solemnly: "Aunt Tian who sweeps in the backyard stuffed this for the servant girl. The servant girl felt that something was wrong, so he took it apart and inspected..."
Zhu Yuan: ...how come again! ?
The summer solstice handed the small basket to Zhu Yuan: "It's just fruit cakes inside." She disagreed, "Girl, did you hire someone outside? Why did you stuff this stuff in the house? Isn't it too stingy? Anyhow, sending some pearls, hairpins and jade ornaments, or fruit, to coax children?"
Zhu Yuan:...
Really stingy!
and many more! Why did she hire someone?
She is very innocent, who knows what the stinky dog ​​wants to do... Besides, the stinky dog ​​is over fifty, and he is too old for twilight love.
Hmph, last time pastry, this time with fruit and pastry... really coax her as a child? no way!
