According to the rules, we have to pay at the end of the month. Yurong has four shops, two houses for rent and more than 2000 mu of fertile land, so these days are very busy.
After accounting, a smile appeared on Yurong's face: "we can have a good year this year." This year's revenue is 20% higher than last year's. The main reason is that this year's grain harvest is higher than last year's, and the grain price is higher than last year's.
Red tone said in a low voice: "madam, I heard that my aunt's face has not looked good these days. Isn't the income of the government not good this year?"
Yurong snorted coldly, but didn't say much: "no matter her." Before she fell in love with Lu Yao, the chicken, duck and fish brought by Yurong Chuang Tzu were all eaten together. In addition, she often bought paper, pen, rouge and other things for her nieces and nephews. But since Lu Yao calculated her, Yurong has become an Iron Rooster.
Hongyin had something else to say, but she was stopped by Honghua: "madam, I have finished the clothes for young master Zheng. When young master Zheng comes back, let him have a try. If it doesn't fit, you can change it. " Safflower's needlework is very good. The master and servant usually sit together to do needlework.
Yurong nodded with a smile: "OK."
In the evening, Ezheng came back, but his face was so ugly that he could drip water.
Yu Rong was startled and asked: "Zheng Er, what's the matter with you? Did someone bully you? "
Yizheng took off his grey rat skin cape and said in a cold voice, "mother, don't worry, it's nothing."
Just look at Yizheng's face, you can't be OK. Yurong said anxiously, "you child, do you want to worry about death? What's the matter? "
In view of the situation, he had to open his mouth and said, "mother, it's really nothing. Just on the way back, I heard two women say a few unpleasant words, and I kicked them in anger."
Yurong's understanding of his son, if not too much, would not make his son so angry. "What did you say?" Yurong asked
Yi Zheng hums coldly: "Niang, don't ask. Anyway, it's not a good thing." He can't say that kind of dirty words.
Seeing this, Yu Rong had to put it down for the time being. But turning around, she asked Yizheng's close friend.
After listening to the boy's words, Yurong's face became pigliver. She can't bear to say that she's living and eating for nothing in Han Fu, but she can't tell Mr. Gao clearly. There's something more disgusting than that! No wonder the Israeli government is so angry.
Yizheng changed his clothes and came out. Seeing that Yurong's face was not good-looking, he immediately guessed that she already knew about it. Yizheng said, "mother, I don't want to live here. They will arrange you and grandfather Gao at will. I don't know what ridiculous gossip will come out in the future. "
Yurong nodded: "OK, we'll move out after the new year." There are still about ten days to celebrate the Chinese New Year. When we move out, we don't look good.
Yizheng nodded.
Yurong and so on to the government back to his house, this just toward the red flower said: "to see if the uncle came back?"? If you come back, come and tell me. "
After a while, Honghua came back and said, "madam, my uncle has just come back. This meeting is on the way to the main courtyard."
Yurong puts on the fox skin cloak and goes to the main courtyard. On seeing Lu Yao, Yurong said coldly, "if we can't accommodate our mother, just say it. I'm not a shameless person. I have to stay in my mother's house. Why use such a mean way."
Seeing this, Han Jiancheng had a headache and asked, "what's the matter with Chinese new year During this time, Yurong didn't say anything in front of Han Jiancheng, but Lu Yao said that Yurong was more and more stingy. If you hear too much, you will be affected.
What do you mean? What's the matter? Hearing this, Yurong's heart was cold: "when Yizheng came back, she heard two women saying that I was not clear with Mr. Gao. Yizheng was so angry that she wanted to punish them. As a result, the two women said that Yizheng was just a young master who lived in the Han government to eat free food, and was not their master, so they were not qualified to punish him. In his anger, Yizheng kicked the two women a few feet. " Because it's not very peaceful outside now, besides a little boy, there are two close followers around Yizheng. Of course, this is an external statement. In fact, the two attendants are both lianjiazi and Yizheng's bodyguards.
At this point, Yurong's tears fell: "Mr. Gao is my father-in-law's aide, because he has been teaching Israel to govern because he missed his father-in-law's kindness. Not to mention Mr. Gao's age, he is more than enough to be my father. He only says that he has never seen Mr. Gao since he moved out of the Jiang family, and he doesn't know which one of the black hearted people spread such rumors. "
The appearance of such evil slaves is the fault of the housewife. Han Jiancheng looked at Lu Yao with an ugly face and asked, "what's the matter?"
Lu Yao's heart is a little angry. This dark thing is not alluding to her! Lu Yao said innocently on her face: "master, I just heard that mother Heng and her two were in a coma after being beaten by politics. Just when I wanted to ask what happened, master came back."
Yurong sneered: "Yizheng is only 11 years old this year. After kicking a few feet, she vomited blood and fainted. Are they paper paste?"
Lu Yao is very angry, but she can't argue with Yurong in front of Han Jiancheng, otherwise it's her fault. Lu Yao said with a guilty face: "I know that my sister is angry, because I am not good at discipline. Don't worry, sister. I'll punish these two broken mouths. "
Yu Rong sneered and said, "there's no need to play any more. I've already asked the servant girls around me. They said that this unbearable rumor has been around for some time. I'm just afraid I'm sorry to hear that. I dare not tell you. Sister in law, I know you are impatient. We live in the mansion. You can rest assured that I will move away after the new year, and it will not hinder your eyes any more. "
Lu Yao's face turned blue and white.
Han Jiancheng frowned and said, "sister, no one wants to drive you away. Don't think about it any more."
Although Yurong is full of fire, she doesn't want to make the relationship too rigid: "I don't know Mr. Gao this time. Next time, who knows what kind of cat and dog I have an affair with. Cheng, I don't want to make my brother and sister become enemies. So don't try to persuade me. After the Lantern Festival, I'll take Yizheng and move out. " With that, Yurong went out with her maid.
Han Jiancheng asked Lu Yao with a green face: "tell me, what's going on?" If it's just a contradiction between his aunt and sister-in-law, he must be very peaceful. But now it's about the reputation of my sister's innocence, it's not a small problem.
Lu Yaohong looked into her eyes and said, "master, I don't know what's going on." The servant criticizes Yurong for living in Han's house for nothing. She knows this, but she really doesn't know about the arrangement of Yurong and Mr. Gao. No matter how silly she was, she couldn't let it go.
The couple soon found out that the rumor that Yurong and Mr. Gao were not clear was that Lu Yao was a dowager. The old lady was instructed by Mrs. Lu.
Knowing that it was Mrs. Lu who wanted to ruin Yurong's reputation, Han Jiancheng was so angry that he trembled all over. He looked at Luyao in the wrong way: "in the future, no one is allowed to come to Lu's house, and you are not allowed to take your children to Lu's house. Otherwise, don't go into Han's house again. " He was afraid that the Lu family would take away several children.
Lu Yao's meeting is more bitter than eating Coptis chinensis.
That night, Han Jiancheng took Lu Yao to apologize to Yurong. Yurong accepts the couple's apology, but insists on moving away. Yurong said, "ah Cheng, I'm still saying that, far fragrant and near smelly. Apart, there won't be so much to do. " Before living in Hanfu, she got along well with Luyao.
Han Jiancheng see Yurong this iron heart to move out, the heart is guilty and sad.
After the Lantern Festival, Yurong moved out of Hanfu and into Sanjing Hutong. Only the first courtyard of the house was occupied by people, and the two courtyards behind were empty. They were specially reserved for Yurong. Before, the courtyard of Hanfu was narrow, so Yizheng and Yurong lived in the same courtyard. However, Yizheng is eleven years old and should have an independent courtyard long ago. This time, he lived in the second yard.
Han Jiancheng personally sent Yurong to Sanjing Hutong. Mr. Gao brought his wife and his son's daughter-in-law to meet him.
Mr. Gao received Han Jiancheng, while his wife and daughter-in-law welcomed Yurong to the backyard.
Looking at Mr. Gao, whose hair and beard are all white, Han Jiancheng is ashamed to think about the infection in the house. Old lady Lu is really a fool. She can't plot for Yurong's property. It's really hateful to spread such vicious rumors. It is also because of this that Han Jiancheng completely dislikes the Lu family.
Mr. Gao's daughter-in-law, Rong, gave the account book of the mansion to Yurong that afternoon: "madam, this is the account book of the mansion. Please have a look at it." Mr. Gao was also a free man when he was in the Jiang family. He was not a servant who signed the contract. However, Rong has always been a follower of her husband. Mr. Gao said that he would repay Jiang Wenrui's kindness and take good care of the Buddha. She has no second words.
Yurong politely took over the account book. This is her home. Naturally, she will be in charge of it. However, she won't treat Mr. Gao's family badly.
On the third day of moving into Mitsui Hutong, Yizheng said one thing to Yurong: "Niang, Mr. Gao asked me to tell you that the situation is getting worse and worse. It's better to sell the property shop and exchange it for gold and silver."
Yu Rong frowned and said, "go and invite Mr. Gao to come here. I'll talk to him in person." The two shops in her hands are very good, and the properties are also excellent. She is reluctant to sell them like this.
Soon, Mr. Gao followed Yizheng.
Yurong asked, "Mr. Gao, do you think the situation is getting worse? How do you say that? "
Mr. Gao said: "the South has all fallen into the hands of the Ming king. In three years at most, he will lead his troops into the capital. Madam, you and Han Guifei are sisters of the same father. This is the only reason why you should not stay in Beijing any longer. " Even if you stay in the capital, it's difficult for orphans and widows to keep such a large sum of money.
Yurong was silent and said: "the eldest brother-in-law is now the governor of Fujian. No matter how Yizheng is his direct nephew, he will not ignore our mother and son." The subtext is that even if the king of Ming conquers the capital, she will rely on Yizheng and Jiang Hongfu.
Mr. Gao explained: "madam, every time the dynasty changes, the land will be returned to the government. When the capital city falls into the hands of the Ming king, all the land in the outskirts of Beijing will be returned to the public." If the property did not belong to Gongming king, what would he use to reward the meritorious officials? Therefore, the change of Dynasty is also a redistribution of power and wealth.
After a pause, Mr. Gao said, "madam, if you don't want to give up, you can leave three or five hundred mu." The more you keep, the more dangerous it is. During the period of war, gold and silver are the most reliable.
In fact, the reason why Yurong can keep her dowry is that she has a rightfully favored concubine and sister. If not, a widow in the hands of such a large amount of money, others have long been black handed, Yurong how to have such a comfortable life.
Yurong's face was a little ugly. He thought about it and said, "what about the house? Will our house be confiscated in the future? "
Mr. Gao shook his head and said: "the northwest army has strict military discipline and will not seize the houses of the common people, but the two good shops are hard to say." Mr. Gao knows all about Yurong's dowry.
It's all for money. It's really hard to sell Yurong like this.
Mr. Gao also knows that it is difficult to make this decision: "if the wife is reluctant to give up, you can sell half and keep half."
Yurong is very entangled in her heart. She is reluctant to sell these properties and worried that these properties will be confiscated after the change of dynasty. After a while, he asked her son standing beside her, "Yizheng, what do you think should be done?"
After thinking about it, Yizheng said, "Niang, it's better to replace it with gold and silver. When the world settles down in the future, we'll buy property again."
Yurong is also a very decisive person. After hearing Yizheng's words, she decided to leave a Chuang Tzu with an area of 800 mu. Other properties are ready to be sold. The output of this 800 Mu field can be used by the people in the government, so there is no need to spend extra money on it.
Because grain has always been very tight, and the price of grain is higher and higher year by year, so the field business in the market is well done. So as soon as Mr. Gao released the news that he wanted to sell the land, someone came to ask the price. Except for Chuang Tzu, who had been reserved for his own use, all the other properties were sold before the first month, but the two shops and the house were not easy to sell.
Yurong will sell most of the property in his name. It's not small. Luyao will soon know.
That night, Lu Yao said to Han Jiancheng, "was my sister coaxed? Such a good industry has a lot of profits every year. How can we sell it? " It was said that Yurong had been deceived by Mr. Gao.
Yurong's industry is promising every year. Although it's not her, Lu Yao is distressed to hear that it's sold.
Han Jiancheng frowned and said, "I'll go to Sanjing Hutong tomorrow." Han Jiancheng didn't doubt Mr. Gao, but he thought it was abnormal and worried.
As for Han Jiancheng, Yurong did not hide what Mr. Gao said to her: "ah Cheng, Mr. Gao has been with my father-in-law for so many years and knows more than me. What's more, it's not safe for me to have so many industries in my hands. " The gold and silver from the sale of the land had been hidden in a place only known to her and her elder brother ZHENG'ER.
Han Jiancheng often goes out and knows more than Yurong. At the beginning, I bought a small house next to Han's house to store grain for the coming war.
After listening to these words, Han Jiancheng didn't say much: "if there's anything you can ask someone to bring me a message." Mitsui hutong is not far from where Han Jiancheng lives, just a quarter of an hour away.
Yurong nodded.
