Zhou Ziqi's words fell.

Everyone's expression changed, but everyone had their own plans.

Old Madam Zhou thought that since Jiang Wanqing was unwilling to pay out of her own pocket, she could use some money from her dowry.

It would be better to use this incident to force Jiang Wanqing to hand over the housekeeper power and give Jiang Wanqing a good lesson.

However, Zhou Ziqi has always been resentful because Jiang Wanqing was unwilling to pay for her with money from the accounting office so that she could buy that dress, which made her embarrassed in front of her sisters.

If she could take back the power of housekeeper and be the manager of the household, she would not believe that the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion would not be short of such money!

However, the plans of Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziqi were exactly what Jiang Wanqing wanted.

She was eager to hand over the power of the family.

However, she couldn't look too happy.

He hesitated for a moment.

She pretended to comfort him, "Second sister, being a housekeeper is not as simple as you think. If you want to be a housekeeper, I can teach you step by step. There is no need to rush."

Zhou Ziqi sneered when he heard this: "Why? If I leave it to you to manage the household, do you mean that my mother and I will have to continue to eat this vegetable porridge?"

In Zhou Ziqi's opinion, Jiang Wanqing's reluctance seemed more like he was unwilling to give up his rights as housekeeper.

Jiang Wanqing was afraid that if he handed over his power as housekeeper, he would never be able to eat from this table of food again.

Before Jiang Wanqing could explain, Old Madam Zhou on the side also spoke up: "Jiang, Ziqi is right. She is now of this age and has reached the right age to get married. She will eventually have to learn how to manage the household affairs. It is better to let her take care of the affairs of the mansion so that she can learn in advance."

Old Madam Zhou knew very well that Jiang Wanqing had already used her dowry to make up for the deficits of the mansion in the past.

No matter how dilapidated the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion was, it still had a few shops under its control.

No matter how bad Zhou Ziqi is at managing the household, I think it won't be worse than the vegetable porridge she has now.

Besides, she also wanted to teach Jiang Wanqing a lesson.

Looking back, Jiang Wanqing realized where she was wrong and was willing to use her dowry to fill the gap in the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion. At that time, she would hand over the housekeeper power to Jiang Wanqing.

Naturally, these plans of Madam Zhou and Zhou Ziqi did not escape Jiang Wanqing's eyes.

There was coldness in her eyes, but she looked hesitant: "But mother, my second sister has never been a housekeeper before. If we rashly hand over the housekeeper power to her..."

Madam Zhou snorted in displeasure when she heard this: "Why do you have an objection? I remember when you first came into the Jiang family, I also handed over the housekeeping power to you. I trusted you very much. Why do you not trust your second sister now that she is here?"

Zhou Ziqi on the side also echoed.

Staring at Jiang Wanqing, he said angrily, "That's right! Now that mother has spoken, sister-in-law, do you still want to disobey mother? Otherwise, if you were able to manage the Marquis' Mansion well, why can't I? This Marquis' Mansion is my home!"

"Jiang family! Hand over the power of the family!"

"Sister-in-law, if you don't hand over the housekeeping power, it proves that you have selfish motives."

Madam Zhou and her daughter were arguing with each other, trying to force Jiang Wanqing to hand over the power of the household.

Jiang Wanqing remained expressionless.

But I began to feel contempt in my heart.

She didn't want to be the head of the family in the first place.

Besides, how can the situation when she just took charge of the family more than a year ago be compared with this time?

At that time, there was a huge deficit of silver in the accounts of the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.

She had just taken over the reins of the household and didn't want to be looked down upon by her husband's family as a new bride.

That's why she gritted her teeth and used her own dowry to make up for the huge loss.

Now Jiang Wanqing finally understood what her mother had said to her before.

Anyone who touches a woman’s dowry is not a good family!

Now, even if there are no more losses, she wants to see how Zhou Ziqi is going to support such a large family with the several loss-making shops under the name of the Xingchang Marquis Mansion!

Jiang Wanqing pulled the corner of her mouth, and said obediently: "The daughter-in-law will naturally listen to her mother's words, and I will hand over the housekeeper's power now."

After saying this, he held the little Jiang Wanqing in his arms and signaled to Nanny Su with his eyes.

The next second, Nanny Su handed a bunch of keys to Zhou Ziqi.

And when the key was handed over, Xiaoxiao in Jiang Wanqing's arms waved her hands excitedly.

[Hahaha, these idiots, without their mother's subsidy, they won't be able to eat three dishes in their lifetime.]

[Mother, have you finally come to your senses? In your previous life, these people used your dowry but never thought of your kindness.]

Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but look down at the daughter in her arms.

I sighed in my heart: From now on, all the money I have will be used to buy new clothes for my good daughter. Mother will never give money to other people again.

The moment Zhou Ziqi got the key, she couldn't stop smiling.

He immediately looked at Madam Zhou excitedly and said, "Mother, I will go to the accountant and ask him to withdraw some money from the kitchen to compensate you."

Jiang Wanqing saw this scene and chuckled.

I hope my second sister can really manage this huge Xingchang Marquis Mansion.

This laughter naturally attracted Zhou Ziqi's attention.

Zhou Ziqi raised her chin again, glanced at Jiang Wanqing, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled up: "Sister-in-law, there are so many leftovers on your table. I think you don't need to ask the kitchen to send you extra vegetables in the next three days. I see, you are still short of a plate of green vegetables. I will just ask the kitchen to send you a plate of green vegetables in the next three days."

Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows.

I know that Zhou Ziqi is making the first three moves as a new official.

I want to give myself a warning.

So she replied, "No need, second sister. I have a small kitchen in my yard. I have always used my dowry money to buy food. In the past year or so, I have never eaten the food in the big kitchen."

Zhou Ziqi was speechless for a moment.

I took a look at the many delicious foods left on the table.

I just feel that Jiang Wanqing is too wasteful in spending money!

She had never eaten so many dishes at once!

It doesn't matter. Once she has the power to manage the family, why would she be afraid that this day will not come?

Thinking of this, Zhou Ziqi raised his proud head again and left Jiang Wanqing in a grand manner.

Zhou Ziyan glanced at Jiang Wanqing, then looked at Zhou Ziqi's leaving back, bowed to Old Madam Zhou, and left.

But Old Madam Zhou did not make any move.

Jiang Wanqing smiled with her eyes curved.

Pointing at the remaining food on the table, he said to Madam Zhou, "If mother is not full, why don't you eat a little more here with your daughter-in-law?"

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhou took a step back in anger.

He pointed at Jiang Wanqing and angrily yelled, "Jiang! You actually let me eat your leftovers!"
