The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk

Facing Jiang Wanqing's questions.

Zhou Ziran said calmly, "I've spent all of it."

Jiang Wanqing was stunned, and it took her a while to react.

He stood up and asked, "What did you say?"

No matter how poor the income of the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion is, it still makes a few hundred taels a month.

As long as we save a little, the expenses of this mansion will be enough.

How come I run out of money at the beginning of the month?

Zhou Ziran curled his lips and said, "How would I know that there was only so much money in the mansion? Anyway, now that the money is gone, I will return the housekeeper power to you."

At this time, Nanny Su walked up to Jiang Wanqing's ear and whispered something.

Jiang Wanqing's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this.

It was only the beginning of the month, and Zhou Ziran had already spent several hundred taels of silver on buying clothes and headwear...

This is really...

All the money was spent at the beginning of the month. Are we going to let these people in this house starve for the rest of the time?

Jiang Wanqing looked at Zhou Ziran coldly: "You said you would take away the housekeeping power? You said you would take it back? I'm sorry, second sister, I don't want this housekeeping power anymore. Or you can just return it to mother. Anyway, I don't want it."

Zhou Ziran stood there in a daze.

He was surprised and said, "This is the stewardship of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion, and you don't want it!"

In the past, wasn't Jiang Wanqing eager to manage the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion?

Jiang Wanqing resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

She would have been stupid to take on the management role.

She used her dowry to support the food, clothing and other expenses of her entire family, and also had to take care of the food, clothing and other expenses of her concubines.

It's enough to do this kind of stupid thing once.

She won't be stupid any more.

At that moment, he looked at Zhou Ziran again: "Anyway, I will not take over the housekeeping power. Second sister, you have spent all the money in the account office, and now you want me to manage this family, how can I manage it? What, are you planning to let me use my dowry to subsidize this family?"

When Zhou Ziran heard this, his face turned red with anger.

Although she did have this idea.

After all, Jiang Wanqing did the same thing in the past.

When a new bride gets married, she should be able to manage the house well, so that others will look up to her.

That's why Jiang Wanqing used to keep those little grievances to herself.

Some deficits can be filled with the dowry.

However, compared with the previous deficits, the current deficit of the Marquis of Xingchang is nothing.

Why is Jiang Wanqing unwilling to pay this money?

But she couldn't directly ask Jiang Wanqing to pay the dowry money.

After all, asking for dowry money is an extremely shameful thing.

Zhou Ziran bit her lip and glared at Jiang Wanqing.

He just said euphemistically: "You used to manage the household well, didn't you? Why are you unwilling to do so now?"

Jiang Wanqing smiled slowly, "Second sister, have you forgotten that you took the initiative to ask for the right to manage the household. It was given to you by mother. Since you can't manage well, you need to learn more. Otherwise, when you go to your husband's house in the future, you can't go to your mother-in-law at the beginning of the month and cry poor."

Zhou Ziran was speechless after being scolded by Jiang Wanqing.

She became angry and said, "If you don't take over the management, I will...I will...tell mother that you bullied me!"

"Who bullied my daughter?"

A voice suddenly rang out.

Hearing the familiar voice, Zhou Ziran's eyes suddenly brightened.

She was elated again.

He glanced at Jiang Wanqing and said, "You're done. Think about how to explain this to your mother!"

Nanny Su glanced at Jiang Wanqing with some concern.

She was worried that Jiang Wanqing would not be able to deal with this shameless family.

Jiang Wanqing shook her head at Nanny Su with a comforting look.

Just at this time, Old Madam Zhou walked into the room holding Zhou Musheng's hand.

She looked at the circle of people in the room.

I couldn't help but frown: "What's all the fuss about today!"

When Zhou Ziran saw Old Madam Zhou appear, he felt that his backer had arrived.

Suddenly, I felt confident.

She took a step forward and took Madam Zhou's arm.

With a complaining tone, he said, "Mother, do you know what my sister-in-law has done? My cousin hasn't received any money for two months. Now, the maid has come to our house to ask for money. If this gets out, it will be bad for the reputation of our Xingchang Marquisate. They will say that we are ungrateful."

Old Madam Zhou narrowed her eyes and glanced at Jiang Wanqing.

Asked: "Is this true?"

Jiang Wanqing nodded: "Yes."

"How dare you!" Old Madam Zhou shouted angrily, "Jiang, have you forgotten that you have married into the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion? You and the Marquis of Xingchang will rise and fall together! If you lose face, you will also lose face!"

Jiang Wanqing suppressed the anger in his chest.

With a hint of sarcasm in his voice, he said, "Mother, have you forgotten that the housekeeper is my second sister? Even if my cousin comes to ask for money, shouldn't she ask my second sister?"

After Jiang Wanqing mentioned this, Madam Zhou seemed to react.

She frowned and glanced at Zhou Ziran.

Zhou Ziran whispered something in Madam Zhou's ear.

Old Madam Zhou sighed.

Then he looked at Jiang Wanqing and said, "Since we are family, you can give the money first and withdraw it from the accounting office later."

Jiang Wanqing smiled and said, "Mother, I'm afraid that I won't be able to spend the money in the accounting office. My second sister has already used up all the money, right? I heard that all the clothes are from Buyi Pavilion, and they are very beautiful."

Anger suddenly appeared on Zhou Ziran's face.

He glared at Jiang Wanqing fiercely: "I want you to be so talkative."

Madam Zhou looked at Zhou Ziran in disbelief: "It's only the beginning of the month, and you spent all your money on clothes? You are committing a sin. Do you live on clothes?"

Jiang Wanqing, who was standing by, kindly advised: "Mother, don't be angry. Let your second sister sell some clothes and jewelry to support the family."

When Zhou Ziran heard this, he suddenly lost his composure.

She pointed at Jiang Wanqing and angrily yelled, "Jiang Wanqing! You are so selfish! You have money but you don't want me to use it. You actually want me to sell my clothes and jewelry. This will make outsiders think that my Xingchang Marquisate has fallen on hard times! Besides, my clothes and jewelry will have to wait until the Shangsi Festival in a few days..."

At the end of his words, Zhou Ziran closed his mouth again in embarrassment.

However, Jiang Wanqing noticed that the little one in her arms was staring at her legs.

[During the Shangsi Festival, mother, please be careful. This bad aunt is plotting against my second uncle's innocence! ]

Jiang Wanqing frowned.

I didn’t expect that Shangsi Festival would come so soon.

It was looking a bit embarrassing.

Old Madam Zhou tried to smooth things over.

Look at the disappointing Zhou Ziran.

He looked at Jiang Wanqing again and spoke slowly: "Wanqing, I think you have known that you were wrong these days. Otherwise, I will give the housekeeper power to you."
