The little boy had been chased out of the hall by his aunt and could only play alone in the courtyard.
The aunt coughed and smiled at her nephew. well, ningyan, I remember that you made a few dishes in the kitchen last time. The style and taste were very unique. Well, I think that since miss Wang is the daughter of the first assistant, she’s used to all kinds of delicacies and would occasionally eat something different ..
“Oh, I’ll go to the kitchen and teach the cook.”
Xu Qi ‘an was full of anticipation for the show later. Now, he would agree to whatever her aunt asked.
On the other side, after the little boy was chased out of the hall, he played alone in the courtyard for a while. He felt bored and ran to his sister Xu lingyue’s room.
It was almost autumn, and Xu lingyue was making autumn clothes for her beloved big brother. The material used was the brocade that Emperor yuanjing had given her.
Xu lingyue’s needlework was outstanding, and the robes she made were more beautiful and exquisite than those bought from the shops outside.
Li Miaozhen came to help with the female ghost susu. The Holy Virgin of the heavenly sect certainly wouldn’t be a prostitute, but susu was a proper lady when she was alive.
Zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, needlework, and needlework were all essential skills.
All these years, li Miaozhen’s clothes and even undergarments were made by susu and the female ghosts under her.
Xu lingyue glanced at her sister, who had climbed onto the table to get the pastries. While she was embroidering the patterns, she said softly, ”
“Lingying, do you want to have a sister-in-law?”
“What’s a sister-in-law?” Xu Ling started eating again.
“Sister-in-law is second older brother’s wife. In the future, she will be in charge of the family’s Silver.” Xu lingyue said softly.
Oh, ” Xu Ling replied. She was not at the age to realize the importance of economic power. On the other hand, it was susu who laughed coldly.
“Miss lingyue, what are you saying? can your second brother’s salary support the Xu family’s expenses? When your mother buys expensive flowers and plants, she would easily spend more than ten taels of silver. Who earned the silver?”
Xu lingyue pursed her lips and smiled. “It’s the money big brother earned.”
The Xu family had made a fortune three times. The first time was when the
Spirit Dragon went crazy. Xu Qi ‘an saved Lin’ an and Emperor Yuan jing rewarded him with a sum of money. The other time was when he was conferred a title of nobility, and he also had a large amount of silver and fertile land.
In the two times she made a fortune, Xu lingyue bought a lot of shops that sold beauty products, silk, miscellaneous goods, and so on. These shops were managed by his aunt in name, but in reality, it was Xu lingyue who was in charge.
The third time he made a fortune was at the beginning of the year when the chicken spirit workshop split the profits. This was an unimaginably huge sum of money, which directly gave the Xu family a Gold Mountain.
If it wasn’t for the fact that there was too much silver, a diligent and thrifty woman like her aunt wouldn’t burn money from time to time to support her flowers.
Of course, the Xu family’s assets on the surface did not include the money that Xu Qi ‘an had hidden in the fragments of the book of the nether world.
Official silver, gold ingots, and the treasures of High Duke Cao were enough to
form a small mountain of treasures.
Susu snorted twice and said eloquently, “”So, even if we have to manage the household’s Silver in the future, it should be managed by Xu ningyan’s wife.”
A sharp light flashed in Xu lingyue’s eyes as she smiled. “Then, lady susu, among the people you know, who do you think is the most suitable for my big brother?”
Susu deftly avoided Xu lingyue’s questions and muttered, ‘
“How would I know? your big brother is a lecherous man and is willing to pay eight thousand taels to redeem the title of the courtesan of the Imperial
Academy of Sciences …”
These words hit Xu lingyue’s sore spot.
Xu lingyue, this girl, suspected that susu and his brother had an affair. Her intuition was really sharp … Susu wasn’t bad either. She stabbed Xu lingyue’s heart with eight thousand taels of silver … The saintess of the heavenly sect sat on the side, eating a cake and watching the show.
Xu lingying ate some pastries in her sister’s room for a while. She couldn’t understand what the adults were saying and felt bored, so she ran out with the cloth-cutting ruler and waved it in the courtyard, chuckling as if she was a swordswoman in the Jianghu.
They played all the way to the main gate of the Xu residence. Seeing that the middle gate, which was usually closed, was open, Xu lingying threw away the ruler and climbed up the high threshold. He opened his arms and balanced himself on it.
sister Ling Ying, go back, go back. There will be guests coming later.
Old Zhang waved his hand.
Xu Ling stood on the threshold, trying to keep his balance. He tilted his head and asked, “”ls she my second brother’s wife?”
….. “Old Zhang was speechless and waved his hand again.
Xu Ling tilted his head and fell from the high threshold. He patted his buttocks and ran away happily.
On the other side, the wheels of Wang simu’s luxurious carriage rolled to a stop in front of the Xu residence.
The maidservant took out a stool from under the carriage and welcomed the young miss.
Wang si mu glanced at the Xu family’s front door and nodded slightly. Although it was far from the Wang family’s royal residence, the Xu family’s financial resources were still quite abundant to be able to buy such a large residence in the bustling inner city.
Having been in charge of the Wang Residence’s finances for many years, Wang si mu estimated that this residence was worth at least seven thousand taels of silver with just a glance.
The gatekeeper, old Zhang, knew that the honored guests had arrived, and hurriedly went up to welcome them, leading Wang simu and her personal maidservant into the manor.
Wang simu took a deep breath, adjusted her state of mind, and crossed the threshold …
Suddenly, Wang si mu stepped on something. She looked down and saw that it was a ruler.
The ruler symbolized the rules. The Xu family’s matriarch had left the ruler at the door, so it was obviously prepared for me. She was trying to set the rules for me … Wang simu’s expression changed slightly.
In his heart, he was thinking that this Madam of the Xu family had a very overbearing temper and was not easy to get along with.
The servant girl saw her stop and asked, “”Miss, what’s wrong?” nothing, ” Wang simu said in a flat tone.”l dropped the ruler here. Pick it up and
send it back to him..”
