As soon as I heard that, I refused to take over the housekeeper position.

Madam Zhou suddenly became uneasy again.

No matter how you look at it, the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion is still a marquis' mansion.

The expenses for living in a mansion with so many people are not small.

Her own pocket money could last her for one or two months.

She wouldn't want this to continue.

But who can blame me? All those shops that used to make money in the mansion have already...

Well, when she thought of this, Mrs. Zhou frowned and sighed.

Zhou Ziran, who was standing aside, also started to become a little impatient.

The burning pain on her face was still reminding her of the injustice she had just suffered.

She covered her face and suppressed the hatred in her heart.

Although there was reluctance in his eyes, he still said kindly: "Sister-in-law, I have already apologized to you humbly just now, and mother has already punished me. I also know that I was wrong, so why is sister-in-law still unwilling to forgive me? Could it be that sister-in-law still has some resentment towards me in her heart?"

He looked very respectful.

In Zhou Ziran's heart, he had already greeted Jiang Wanqing's family from beginning to end.

If it weren't for the dowry that Jiang Wanqing left behind, he would have wanted her to continue to fill the deficits of the Marquis' Mansion.

She was unwilling to be so humble to Jiang Wanqing.

Thinking of the deficits in the accounting office, Zhou Ziran glanced at his mother with an unknown emotion in his eyes.

Zhou Ziran and Old Madam Zhou were talking to each other.

It seemed that Jiang Wanqing was about to be forced into a position where she could not retreat.

Jiang Wanqing holds Xiaoxiao in her arms.

Suddenly I burst into tears.

No matter how you look at it, there is a hint of sadness.

The tears started falling and suddenly I couldn't stop them from falling.

Jiang Wanqing looked at Zhou Ziran: "What are you saying, second sister? How could I not forgive you? After all, we are still a family."

After saying that, Jiang Wanqing looked at Old Madam Zhou again.

She picked up the handkerchief in her hand and wiped her tears appropriately.

She gently patted and coaxed the little one in her arms.

She continued, "Mother, since I gave birth to Xiao Xiao, my body has been particularly weak. I always dream about my husband. I dream that he blames me for not giving birth to a boy for the Zhou family. I am terrified. During this period of time, I have been tortured in my heart. I really don't have the energy to take care of the affairs of the Xingchang Marquis' Mansion anymore."

After a pause, Jiang Wanqing looked up at Madam Zhou again and said, "Mother, the housekeeping power has been given to my second sister. You also said that you hope my second sister will learn the art of housekeeping at home before she gets married. So, let's do this. After my second sister gets married, I will take back the housekeeping power."

Jiang Wanqing knew that Zhou Ziran was interested in her second brother.

How could she be willing to get married so early?

Besides, even if she took back the housekeeper position, she would not put her dowry into it.

Zhou Ziran heard what Jiang Wanqing said.

For a moment, I became a little excited.

He glared at Jiang Wanqing and said, "The Marquis' Mansion is short of money now. If you don't help me, how can I manage the household?"

Madam Zhou on the side also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Wanqing, please help your second sister this time. Now that the Marquis' Mansion is in her hands, it is a mess. You might as well take back the housekeeper power today."

Take back the housekeeper rights?

Jiang Wanqing seemed to have heard a joke.

Zhou Ziran had begged me to take over the position of housekeeper.

Now he has managed a mess, spent all his money, and is thinking of leaving the mess to himself.

There is no such good thing in this world.

It's not like I have so much money that I can't spend it, so I want to spend some money to do good deeds.

Jiang Wanqing endured the ridicule from below.

Pretending to be thinking about Zhou Ziran.

She looked at Old Madam Zhou and said, "Mother-in-law, the more this happens, the more you should hand over the Marquisate to my second sister. When she gets married, she can't just run back home and hand over her management to me. Didn't my daughter-in-law go through the same thing when she first married into the Marquisate of Xingchang? You should let my second sister get familiar with it in advance."

As Mrs. Zhou listened to Jiang Wanqing's explanation, she actually felt that it made some sense.

She hesitated.

Jiang Wanqing took this opportunity to say, "Why not let my second sister manage the housekeeping before she gets married? Mother is worried that my daughter-in-law will raise Mu Sheng herself, so all the expenses will be covered by her."

Upon hearing that Jiang Wanqing was willing to use her own dowry to support Zhou Musheng, Old Madam Zhou's expression became even better.

If Zhou Musheng has no worries about food and clothing, it would be fine for me to pay some money for my monthly food and clothing expenses.

As for Zi Ran, she spends money without knowing how much she wants and might be out of money by the end of the month. She should figure out a way to deal with these things on her own.

Madam Zhou narrowed her eyes slightly.

However, when Mu Sheng's studies stabilized and Jiang Wanqing was no longer needed, the housekeeper Quan would have to find an excuse to force Jiang Wanqing to take over.

Otherwise, with the money in my hands, I'm afraid I won't be able to live a good life for too long.

Jiang Wanqing's dowry was large enough to allow her to live comfortably.

Seeing that Jiang Wanqing had already reached an agreement with her mother, Zhou Ziran, who was standing by, became a little anxious.

But he asked, "You just handed over the housekeeping power to me like this? Have you ever thought about how I should support my family? There is no money in the account of the mansion, and it's only the beginning of the month. How do you want me to support my family?"

Old Madam Zhou's face darkened.

Looking at Zhou Ziran, I felt that he was becoming more and more like a debt collector.

He immediately scolded her, "Your sister-in-law has already said that although the shops in the mansion are not profitable, as long as the family is a little frugal, it is enough. You evil creature, as soon as you got the power of housekeeper, you just bought jewelry and clothes for yourself. Have you ever thought that our whole family will have to starve to death?"

Zhou Ziran opened her eyes angrily and looked at Madam Zhou: "Mother, I am also preparing for the Shangsi Festival. If I don't have good clothes, how can I compare with other girls? How can I find the young man I like?"

When Mrs. Zhou heard this, her face suddenly darkened.

He scolded, "You shameless person, how dare you say such things here?"

Zhou Ziran bit her lip and felt very wronged.

She asked back, "Isn't it because my eldest brother died young and left no male bloodline, that everyone thought the Xingchang Marquisate had fallen into decline, so the wealthy families looked down on me and my sister. But how can the poor families be worthy of me and my third sister? Mother, you are now around Zhou Musheng all day long. How can you still worry about my and my third sister's marriage!"
