Chapter 112: Qingyun surrenders the housekeeping power

Shen Qingyun came forward and knelt down to thank him. Yi Cui quietly handed over the purse she had prepared. The eunuch chief secretly squeezed the weight of the purse. Oh, I didn't expect that the newly appointed county master was so generous. He smiled and was polite. Then he turned around and left.

The expressions on the faces of the old lady and Shen Zhifeng were somewhat complicated. They were happy that Duke Shen's mansion had received the imperial edict and were rewarded, but they were sad that only Shen Qingyun was rewarded.

Shen Shensi's face turned pale and she clenched her teeth tightly.

How is it possible that Shen Qingyun came from the countryside, why was he named the county head?

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, so what about the county lord, it's not that no one wants or wants to marry, but I will get married soon and become the wife of the prince.

Shen Shensi tried her best to comfort herself, not knowing what was coming.

Shen Qingyun was too lazy to care about the little ones in Shen Sisi's heart. She was still quite surprised. When she made the donation, she never thought that she would be awarded the title of County Lord.

Shen Zhifeng was silent for a while, then frowned and asked: "Qingyun, where did you get so much money to buy these supplies?"

Upon hearing this, the old lady recovered from the shock, and her gaze gradually turned unkind as she looked at Shen Qingyun: "Qingyun, you are a boudoir girl, and you have only been back home for less than a year, but you have always been the one who has given me the favor. Regarding management, could it be that I have acquired some bad virtues in the past?"

"No way!" Shen Sisi timidly exclaimed, "I don't think my sister can do such a thing."

This is an allusion to Shen Qingyun's corruption and profit-seeking.

"Sisi, you are too simple and kind." The old lady snorted coldly: "If not, how did the forty-nine carts of supplies come from?"

Such an analysis also seemed very reasonable to Shen Zhifeng.

In the past, life in the Duke's mansion was filled with luxury and enjoyment. Since Shen Qingyun took over Zhongfu, many expenses have been reduced or reduced. After the Han family divorced, they took away a large number of precious items. The gap between before and after is not small.

"Qingyun, I don't know how you got your hands and feet from it. Since you have been granted the title of County Lord, I will not pursue these matters. However, the previous status of the Duke's Mansion must be restored, and these things rewarded by the Emperor should also be restored. Belongs to the entire Guogong Mansion."

Pearl was so angry that she wanted to go forward to argue, but Shen Qingyun stopped her: "Father, the imperial edict clearly states that these things are all awarded to me. If father feels that the emperor's arrangement is unreasonable, he can go and make a statement to the emperor. ."

Shen Zhifeng's face turned red. Did he dare to question the emperor?

Shen Qingyun turned to face the old lady again: "Since grandma suspects that I am not managing the government affairs well, I will hand over the power of intermediary feeding to grandma. If grandma finds out that I have done something wrong, please ask grandma to teach me. "

With that said, he ordered Yicui to get the accounts, warehouse keys and other items.

Seeing Shen Qingyun handing over the power without blinking an eye, the old lady was inevitably uneasy. However, she had not tasted the feeling of being in power for a long time, and she was actually a little eager to try it now.

Shen Shen thought that if the old lady was in power, she would be much better off, so she pulled the old lady's sleeve: "Grandma, Han can take charge, my sister can take care of it. Grandma Si Sixin will only do better."

The old lady nodded arrogantly, but her girl Sisi was still focused on her. Looking at Shen Sisi, her eyes became more kind.

Shen Qingyun handed over the power of the central government and left without looking back.

The three people looked at the golden cloth given by the emperor and were jealous. They all looked at each other secretly and tacitly said: They want to take these rewards!

But Shen Qingyun naturally would not give them the chance to register everything in the register and make an inventory every two days.

If they dare to steal it, I don’t know if they can bear the charge of stealing something given by the emperor!

Shen Qingyun felt relieved at the thought of throwing away the mess that was Duke Shen's mansion.

In the past, it was to learn how to manage the inner house and cultivate her own manpower and eyeliners. Now she has almost arranged it. Taking this opportunity to get rid of it, she can do more of her own things.

The old lady was back in charge of the family after many years, and her inner joy was beyond words. With a wave of her hand, the entire Shen Guogong Mansion added a new dish today.

She didn't dare to waste too much. After all, without Han Rou's dowry subsidy, it was obvious at a glance that the accounts were tight and there was not much money left.

Two factions began to divide among the servants. Some felt that although Shen Qingyun became the head of the county, she would get married sooner or later, and the housekeeping rights were given to the old lady, so they began to favor Yansongtang. Others hoped to get involved The county leader wanted to show his face in front of Shen Qingyun more often, so he went to Jianjia courtyard more often.

Shen Qingyun didn't care about this, just let those who were on the wall go, and she would not treat those who were willing to do things for her badly.

It seemed that everything was going well, but the old lady had only managed the inner house for a month, and she felt a little headache.

Shen Sisi and Shen Zhifeng's expenses this month have exceeded a lot, so they need money from other places to make up for it, but they don't need money!

"No wonder Shen Qingyun handed over the power so simply!" The old lady sighed, her temples twitching.

Aunt Liu, who was beside the old lady, had been with her for most of her life. Looking at her along the way, she felt very emotional. She rubbed her forehead for the old lady and couldn't help but whisper softly: "A penny can't help a heroic man. It's better than before when Madam was here."

After hearing this, the old lady naturally wanted to refute, but she sighed for a long time.

An idea flashed in his mind. In the past, the Han family had to provide money to subsidize the Duke's palace. Now that the Han family is gone, the position of the Duke's wife is vacant. Wouldn't it be nice to ask Shen Zhifeng to marry a famous daughter as his stepmother? !

After hearing this, Grandma Liu frowned: "The previous reconciliation has not completely faded away. At this moment, it is a bit troublesome to marry the right one. Besides, you have to be soft-tempered."

In the past, Mr. Han's temperament was soft and easy to control. Otherwise, if he met someone strong, he would not have to fight to the death with the old lady.

The old lady also thought about this: "I have to look for it."

However, after several days in a row, no one could be picked out who could be better than Han Rou in terms of family background, appearance, and temperament.

Aunt Liu thought about it for a while: "Old madam, if the Duke marries a step-wife, he will naturally have to choose a good one slowly and not in a hurry. But if he just takes a concubine, that person will be easier to find."

This thought was correct, so the old lady ran to ask Shen Zhifeng for his opinion.

Shen Zhifeng had been holding back for more than ten years not to take a concubine for Han Rou. Now that he heard the old lady's suggestion, how could he not be willing to take one? Things started to get organized.

Anyway, when it comes to taking concubines, there are only three criteria: good looks, money, ease of handling, and low status, that doesn't matter.

In this case, we really have to pick out a few candidates.
