The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk
Chapter 8: Changes in the Marquisate
Every time Zhou Ziqi hadn't arrived yet, her voice would arrive early.
By the time Zhou Ziqi appeared in front of Jiang Wanqing, before Jiang Wanqing could react, Zhou Ziqi had already put her arm around Jiang Wanqing's arm, looking very intimate.
There are three young ladies and one young master in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion.
The eldest daughter is already married.
There are two more waiting to be married.
And Zhou Ziqi is ranked second.
[Bad aunt! You said you came to see mother, but every time you came to see mother, it was for mother's money! ]
[You know that your bad daddy is still alive and with a bad woman, but you didn't tell mom and secretly laughed at her! You spend mom's money while treating her like this, you bad aunt! ]
Jiang Wanqing heard Xiaoxiao's voice and couldn't help but recall.
Over the past year, Zhou Ziqi would come to talk to me from time to time.
Although there are words of concern for oneself, in the end, it will all be about money.
Or, maybe you saw a nice pair of jewelry today.
Or, you see a nice piece of clothing.
Perhaps, Zhou Ziqi really thought of herself as a sucker.
She has a lot of money, so she doesn't care if she spends a little bit of it.
But Zhou Ziqi knew that Zhou Zigu was still alive, but she hid it from him and made a fool of herself.
Then she will not be happy!
Zhou Ziqi saw that Jiang Wanqing didn't react.
A smile appeared on his face again.
"Xiaoxiao is growing up and becoming a little beauty. She looks just like her sister-in-law."
Jiang Wanqing smiled calmly: "My daughter is naturally pretty."
Seeing Jiang Wanqing responded to him.
Zhou Ziqi held Jiang Wanqing's arm affectionately.
With a coquettish tone, "Sister-in-law, a few days ago, I saw a very beautiful dress in Baiyi Hall. It suits me very well. Sister-in-law, can you ask the accountant to give me some money?"
Jiang Wanqing raised an eyebrow.
Sure enough, it was for money again that he came to me.
She really wanted to see it.
What would she do if I didn't agree?
"The Xingchang Marquisate doesn't have much money to begin with, and it only relies on the income from a few shops to support itself. Your brother passed away, and the salary was even less. This money is gone."
Zhou Ziqi was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a while.
Jiang Wanqing actually dared to reject me.
She asked in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, I wanted to buy a piece of clothing before, but you never..."
Before Zhou Ziqi could finish speaking.
Jiang Wanqing replied, "The accountant will leave some silver for everyone every month. Second sister, you spent all your silver on the third day of this month. On the tenth day, you spent another ten silver taels on rouge. On the sixteenth day, you spent twenty silver taels on jewelry. On the nineteenth day..."
Zhou Ziqi was a little angry and said, "Does the Xingchang Marquisate still need money from a young lady like me? The Xingchang Marquisate doesn't have enough money, but you still have a dowry..."
At this point, Zhou Ziqi seemed to realize that what he said was inappropriate.
If they said it bluntly, they wanted Jiang Wanqing's dowry, which would be bad for the Marquis' Mansion.
So she quickly changed the subject: "I thought you were a good sister-in-law. I usually said good things about you in front of my close friends, praising you as not only a model of a noble lady, but also a model of a lady from a noble family. Today, I just wanted a piece of clothing, but you didn't even give it to me. Sister-in-law, you are too stingy!"
After leaving these words, Zhou Ziqi left in a rage.
She knew that if she had said this in the past and pretended to be angry, Jiang Wanqing would quickly give her some money and coax her.
Jiang Wanqing, who stayed where he was, laughed out of anger.
Are you stingy?
Is she stingy?
She has used up so much of her dowry over the past year.
Just for once, I didn’t buy clothes for Zhou Ziqi.
And all I got in return was a sentence of searching by myself?
Ah.
Nanny Su, who was standing by, felt very relieved when she saw this.
"Madam, you should have rejected the Second Miss a long time ago."
"In the past, she coaxed you to buy her this and that. Now that you don't want to buy anything, she is acting like this to you. That's great. The one who asks for money has become the boss."
Jiang Wanqing also chuckled: "Not anymore in the future, Mammy, please invite the accountant over."
When the nanny heard this, she immediately agreed.
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Jiang Wanqing suspiciously.
[Mother, you won't give money to the bad aunt again, will you?]
[In the previous life, my second aunt deliberately framed my second uncle at the Spring Banquet, saying that my second uncle had ruined my second aunt’s innocence and wanted to marry him. My second uncle refused to admit it, and his future was ruined. He was punished to go to a bitter and cold land, and then he encountered the enemy and died tragically... Woohoo... My second uncle is so miserable...]
Xiaoxiao suddenly sobbed softly.
Jiang Wanqing's face darkened when he heard this.
After all, Zhou Ziqi is the daughter of the Marquis of Xingchang.
She actually resorted to such despicable means and ruined her own reputation in order to marry the second brother.
She knew that her second brother was a young general, and that there were countless noble ladies in the capital who wanted to marry him.
However, she couldn't tolerate such dirty and sordid means!
When the accountant arrived, he saw Jiang Wanqing with a gloomy face.
At that moment, he knelt down in front of Jiang Wanqing, begging for mercy with fear on his face, "Madam, I was wrong. I will give the second young lady the money to buy clothes right away."
Jiang Wanqing frowned slightly.
He also knew that his appearance had caused the accountant to misunderstand him.
Then he said, "Get up first. This is not what I want to talk to you about."
The accountant heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Jiang Wanqing has been in the mansion for more than a year, and is able to manage the huge Xingchang Marquis Mansion at such a young age.
It's still a combination of hard and soft means.
The accountant was also afraid of Jiang Wanqing.
At that moment, he stood up and waited on the side: "I will obey whatever the Madam commands."
Jiang Wanqing asked, "From today on, the expenses of the Xingchang Marquis' Mansion will only be funded by the income from the shops under the Xingchang Marquis' Mansion. My dowry will not be used on top of that."
When the accountant heard this, he seemed surprised and looked at Jiang Wanqing in amazement.
Then he said tentatively, "Madam, there are less than ten shops under the name of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion. Excluding the shops that are not making money or losing money, there are only two or three that are profitable. In the past, it was because of your subsidies that the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion was able to have enough money. If you get rid of them... then the food and clothing expenses of the mansion will not be as simple as halving."
Zhou Xiaoxiao also looked at Jiang Wanqing suspiciously.
I thought: Mom finally came to her senses!!!
Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows and said, "Just do as I say. The treatment of the servants in the mansion is no different from that in other marquisates. The rest is just a few points lower than that of the old lady and the young lady."
The accountant understood it clearly.
He quickly responded, "I'll do it right away, madam."
The accountant wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
I’m afraid that things are going to change in this Marquis’ Mansion.
