Chapter 14
Back at the General's Mansion, Lan Xi went to the courtyard to greet the old lady, then took Shi Mo back to the small courtyard, leaving behind the beautiful family in the house.

In the following days, Han Sirou and Chu Rou'er became busy. With the help of Mrs. Hu, Han Sirou finally won a place in the circle of noble women in the capital, and she was so beautiful that she might overwhelm Lan Xi.

Chu Zhentian has been working hard for days, Wutong is pregnant, and in half a month it will be Mrs. Chu's [-]th birthday. Double happiness is coming, so I have to take care of it. catch the wind.

That day, Han Sirou was discussing with the housekeeper about Mrs. Chu's birthday, and Han Sirou's head grew big when she looked at the list made by the housekeeper.

After a rough calculation, it was only three days of running water and inviting famous actors from the capital to sing for the old lady, which was a huge expense. This did not include the rewards given to everyone in the house and the purchases for the old lady. Birthday gift money.

Although she is now in charge of the house, she only has five or six shops in her hands, and they are all engaged in small-profit businesses. There are about a hundred people in the general's mansion, and the monthly expenses are a large sum, and the rest is in her hands. The money in her pocket is really not much, plus she frequently attends banquets these days and buys clothes for herself and Rou'er, the money in her hand has long been beyond her means, and she secretly made up for it.

"Ma'am, as the saying goes, people are rare in seventy years old, so the standards for birthdays and birthdays are naturally higher, and the rewards for servants are twice as much as usual."

The housekeeper hadn't finished talking, the concierge came to report, and shopkeeper Gou came.

Han Sirou asked the maid beside her to bring shopkeeper Gou into the room, and the shopkeeper Gou knelt down to Han Sirou after entering the room, and the housekeeper was also very smart when he saw this posture, and quickly cupped his hands and said, "Ma'am, I have something to do." , the younger one will leave first."

"Treasurer Gou, what are you doing?"

Shopkeeper Gou's eyes were red with anxiety, "Ma'am, something is wrong. The supplier will stop supplying us from next month. I have asked everyone I can, but no one is willing to help."

"Out of stock, how could it be out of stock?" Isn't the grain, flour, rice and oil store operating well these past few months, why is it out of stock?

"We just opened a Four Seasons store in Beijing, and bought the goods from the supplier at a high price. The price of grain, flour, rice and oil sold is half a percent lower than the price on our store. The profit of the store in the past two months is deducted from the cost. It can only be maintained at first, and if the supply of goods is cut off, the shop may be closed."

"Where's the gold jewelry shop?" Han Sirou asked while twisting her handkerchief.

"It's...it's okay, it can barely last." Shopkeeper Gou wiped his sweat and gritted his teeth: "I'm afraid it won't last long."

"What?" Han Silou stood up suddenly, "What do you mean it won't last long?"

Shopkeeper Gou's teeth were chattering and he couldn't hold his tongue straight, "Well, well, well, the master and his apprentice in the shop are almost gone."

"The business of the Lan family is all over Dajing. It must be that bitch Lan Xi who hurt me." Han Sirou's silver teeth were about to be gritted. In her hand, she didn't notice anything wrong at that time.

"Husband, madam, I don't know if I should say something or not." Shopkeeper Gou said.

"speak."

"It's true that the Lan family's business is all over Dajing, but they have never touched the business of grain, flour, rice and oil. The business is only taken over by Mrs. Lan.

When Han Sirou heard this, she waved her hands upsetly: "You go out first, let me think about this matter."
