Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy

Chapter 27 Lu Guanyu is quite effective in managing the family

Li Jinglan found an old account book in the warehouse.

It matches what's in the account book.

Some valuable things disappeared, probably taken away or squandered by Lu Zhang and her son.

It was three days later when she finished settling all the accounts in the warehouse.

Aunt Liu reported: "The female lay Buddhist from Xiaotuo Temple came to see you."

Xiaotuo Temple is a Buddhist temple.

When receiving female pilgrims, the female lay Buddhists living there would come forward.

It seems that the gossips that Nanny Liu found for her have arrived.

Li Jinglan smiled and nodded: "Welcome in."

The female Buddhist who came in was a round-faced woman in her thirties with long hair.

He smiled before he spoke: "I kowtow to the lady."

He said he was going to kowtow, but he only bent his knees.

Li Jinglan couldn't help but smile: "You are older than me, but I will never accept your courtesy. A few days ago, my husband said that he would go to Xiaotuo Temple to burn incense and eat vegetarian food, but he was delayed by something at home."

"It's a coincidence that you are here today. Please apologize to the abbot for me." Li Jinglan pointed at the stool and said, "Sit down."

The female lay Buddhist leaned forward and sat halfway. "The abbot said the other day that the garden had been cleared, but why didn't I see Mr. Lu? Today, after listening to what the lady said, I will go back and report to the abbot, so that he can rest assured."

Li Jinglan asked Madam Liu to serve tea again.

"It has been four years since my parents-in-law passed away. During these four years, my husband's life... forget it, let's not talk about it..." Li Jinglan sighed and talked about the eternal lamp.

"I want to light two ever-burning lamps in front of the Buddha for my parents-in-law, but I don't know how to do it?"

"It varies from one to one hundred taels a year." The female Buddhist explained in detail how to ask for lamps.

Li Jinglan also asked how much other families spent.

"Since several families of young students have requested lanterns worth five taels, let's also request two lanterns worth five taels." Li Jinglan gestured to Madam Liu to take the money and serve tea to the guests.

The laywoman took the silver and went out.

Madam Liu followed him out and said, "A few days ago, Master Zhang, a scholar from Wangju County, was very sad when he heard about my husband's experience, and he sent back the maid he bought from my family a few years ago."

"My husband gave me money to express his gratitude, but Master Zhang beat him out. Master Zhang said that I gave you back because I felt sorry for you because you had no parents and had been abused for four years. You gave me money, which was humiliating me."

"My husband thought that Mr. Zhang's good deed should not be kept to himself, so he wanted to spread the word on his behalf."

It turns out that he wanted to curry favor with Mr. Zhang!

Thinking about it, next year will be the year of the provincial examination.

The female Buddhist thought that the Lu family wanted Mr. Zhang to speak well of Lu Bozhou during the imperial examination.

"It's fine to go door to door and say some nice things, but you can't enter a rich family's house without a reason. If you want to find a reason, you have to give some money to the servants."

Madam Liu took out two taels of silver and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

The female Buddhist accepted it with a smile on her face.

It's a good job.

This is much better than letting her speak ill of others in a wealthy family to induce young girls to have sexual thoughts or to make vampires for the boys in the family.

Ningxin was sitting in the suite in the east wing at this time, struggling with needle and thread.

I looked up and saw a person dressed as a female Buddhist coming out of the main room.

I couldn't help but stand up.

As soon as she stood up, Lu Guanyu, who was practicing calligraphy on the table with a brush dipped in water, saw her and scolded her, "What's the matter?"

Ningxin has lost her temper these days because of being manipulated by Lu Guanyu.

Sometimes she was asked to sew clothes, and sometimes she was told that her sewing skills were not good and she couldn't wear the clothes out.

"When the mistress was alive, she once said that no gossipy women were allowed into the house."

Ning Xin looked at the window anxiously, "These are not good people."

"How's your sewing of clothes going?" Lu Guanyu felt that she could not understand Ning Xin at all.

What does it have to do with you who your sister-in-law wants to meet?

As a sister-in-law, I don’t care.

What do you, a servant, care about?

"Pull the veil on your face so that no one can see you." Lu Guanyu turned his gaze back to the table.

But I forgot which word I just wrote.

I'm angry.

"How stupid!" Lu Guanyu cursed himself inwardly.

Ningxin thought Lu Guanyu was scolding her.

He was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he didn't dare to resist.

I could only sit down and sew clothes with my head down.

What does Li Jinglan want to do with the gossips?

Decent families won't let gossips in.

Will this family ever get better?

This distraction caused the needle to pierce the finger.

Ning Xin cried out in pain.

"Don't waste the fabric! If you don't want to sew clothes, go to the kitchen and light the fire." Lu Guanyu snorted.

For Lu Guanyu, the kitchen is a very important place.

Let Ningxin go to the kitchen to make fire, or find an easy job for Ningxin for the sake of her elder brother.

According to Lu Guanyu's own idea, she wanted Ningxin to dig out feces.

How dare you disrespect your sister-in-law!

snort!

Lu Guanyu continued to practice calligraphy.

Ningxin put her fingers in her mouth and tears fell down.

She was a maid serving her master, and yet she was allowed to go into the kitchen to make fire?

Qinglu brought a cup of tea: "Miss, have a drink of tea."

Lu Guanyu shook his head: "I drink too much water and always want to go to the toilet."

She suddenly thought of something.

"I've been to Wang's toilet, it doesn't smell bad at all."

"Can anyone think of a way to make our toilet less smelly?"

Lu Guanyu thought for a while and said, "Whoever comes up with a solution will be rewarded with one penny."

I heard that you gave money.

The little girls' eyes lit up.

Ning Xin curled her lips in disdain: What kind of toilet is this? It's obviously an official residence.

and also.

These little girls all have monthly allowance.

She didn't.

After she and Lu Bozhou reunited, Lu Bozhou never mentioned monthly allowance.

After returning home, Li Jinglan never mentioned the monthly salary.

Ning Xin couldn't help but ask, "Miss, how much is my monthly salary?"

Lu Guanyu didn't even raise his head: "I have their indentures. Bring them to me and I'll pay you a monthly salary."

My sister-in-law taught me.

Those who do not have a selling contract are not slaves of the Lu family.

Why should she pay other people's slaves?

Are you anxious about having too much money?

“……” Ning Xin stopped talking.

Outside the door, the little girl who was in charge of delivering messages waved.

After Qinglu went out, she came back and said, "Lu Ping is at the gate of Chuihua Gate. He said that a scholar named Yuan sent a visiting card and wants to visit him tomorrow."

"I'll go ask my sister-in-law." Lu Guanyu put down the brush.

After listening to this, Li Jinglan said, "It's a pleasure to have friends over. Ask Lu Ping if he plans to go out for dinner or eat at home."

After the Ping An brothers gave their thank-you gifts, Lu An went to the Wang family to serve Lu Bozhou.

Now only Lu Ping lives in the front yard.

"Lu Ping's monthly salary is two taels, and Lu An's is six hundred wen. I will give Lu Ping another tael of silver as a friendship fee every month."

"The money for entertaining guests will be deducted from his social expenses."

"If you go out to play, let me know in advance and Lu Ping can use the ox cart."

Lu Guanyu wrote down these words.

He walked to the entrance of Chuihua Gate and repeated it to Lu Ping.

Lu Ping didn't expect that Li Jinglan not only gave them brothers a monthly allowance and gave him money for making friends, but also allowed him to use a ox cart.

Thank you very much.

Lu Guanyu went out and Li Jinglan sighed.

"Money is really not worth spending."

Just a few days after getting married, they had already spent more than a hundred taels.

The two shops occupied by Lu Xuande must be taken back as soon as possible.

"Let a few respected elders in the village go to the front yard to talk tomorrow."

It's time to put the farm in order tomorrow.

After finishing the land, you have to make money quickly.

The family also had to buy an ox cart.

At this time.

Someone outside the door reported that Liu asked Li Jinglan to come over.

It should be the servant that Liu found for her that has arrived.

Now I don't have to worry about having no one to use my subordinates.

However, Aunt Liu was reluctant to leave.

After Li Jinglan has someone under her command, she will have to return to the Wang family.

Li Jinglan was very respectful to both her and Liu.

Working in a place where you are respected is a happy thing even if you are tired.

Nanny Liu sighed softly in her heart.

There is no never-ending feast.
