107. Point money
Rong Qiaoyan looked at the pile of paper with question marks on her left and the pile of paper with matching marks on her right.
Finally, she picked up the piece of paper with "money" written from it and gently clicked it.
Whether it is leaving the mansion, buying road guides, settling down, buying people, hiring bodyguards, protecting oneself, or living a good life, the prerequisite for achieving all these things is to have money!
It seems that we have to make money first, just as Sister-in-law Liu said.
Thinking of this, Rong Qiaoyan balled up the paper she wrote and threw it into the charcoal basin under her feet.
After a ball of fire, the paper balls disappeared.
Rong Qiaoyan waited for the paper to be completely burned before calling Miaozhi in.
After Miaozhi came in, she was busy packing the paper, ink, pen and inkstone on the desk, etc.
Rong Qiaoyan walked to the inner room in contemplation and sat down on the beauty couch.
When Miaozhi finished packing up and went to the inner room to serve Rong Qiaoyan, Rong Qiaoyan smiled and asked, "Miaozhi, I want to know how much money and jewelry I have now? Please bring them all to me and take a look."
"Don't get me wrong, I just want to see how much savings I have, it's not that you don't manage it well."
Rong Qiaoyan was afraid that Miaozhi would think too much, so she quickly explained.
It is true that her question today was too abrupt.
The great ladies from the scholarly family are naturally taught to regard money as common things on the surface.
Therefore, Miss Rongfu’s money box is controlled by her close-fitting maid.
Of course, this lady is also responsible for checking the accounts -- this is also one of the contents of the housekeeper.
However, Rong Qiaoyan trusted Miaozhi very much in her past and present lives, so she generally did not check the accounts.
Besides, that little money is worth checking. Therefore, she has never checked it.
Now that she suddenly did this, she was afraid that Miaozhi would think too much, so she quickly explained.
After all, there are very few loyal people nowadays, and they cannot be colder.
"The maid has not misunderstood. Now I will take the money box and makeup box, and the lady also clicks to see it. The lady used to ignore these common things, but now she is concerned."
Miaozhi has no misunderstanding. Her lady grew up with her. Doesn’t she still know her?
Instead, I was happy that she became more and more transparent.
Rong Qiaoyan nodded with a smile.
Miaozhi went to the cabinet, took out a locked money box and placed it on the table, and took out a key she carried with her.
She opened the money box, took out the account book and put it at Rong Qiaoyan's hand, and pushed the money box in front of Rong Qiaoyan and asked to see.
Rong Qiaoyan looked down.
There were some scattered silver and some silver beads, silver flakes, strings of copper coins and scattered coins, and the golden barley flakes that Duke Tai of Dingguo last time rewarded.
When Rong Qiaoyan checked the money, Miaozhi quickly moved the makeup box on the dressing table and opened it.
"These silver barley, silver horns, and silver beads were all called together some time ago, and it happened to be fifty taels. The golden barley was five taels, and the silver was almost fifty taels. These two strings were two jin of coins and two thousand coins, and the scattered copper coins were almost six hundred coins."
Miaozhi explained the total amount of Rong Qiaoyan’s savings one by one.
Rong Qiaoyan nodded.
Miaozhi brought the account book over again, "Miss, some time ago, she went to the big kitchen to add some dishes and snacks, as well as the medicinal materials she bought, and...."
Miaozhi was about to explain the accounts in detail, but Rong Qiaoyan suppressed the account book.
"I believe you! I just want to see how much money I have, not to check the accounts."
Rong Qiaoyan stared at Miaozhi's eyes and explained seriously. Her sincerity and trust allowed Miaozhi to see her.
Miaozhi could only say "Oh" in a daze, not knowing what to say.
Rong Qiaoyan turned her gaze to her meager savings and couldn't help but frown.
Before Rong Qiaoyan was three years old, she lived with Aunt Shuang. So there was no separate case and Yueyin, all of which were counted as Aunt Shuang's case and Yueyin.
After three years old, Rong Qiaoyan was moved to the eldest lady's backyard and was raised by the eldest lady with the other sisters.
This is also to have the title of being raised by a legitimate mother, so that she can be married in the future.
Because all the food, drink, clothing and supplies are allocated by the mansion, the amount of monthly silver is very small - as a concubine's daughter, she only has three taels per month.
By this calculation, Rong Qiaoyan actually has a lot of moon silver, so she should have saved up three or four hundred taels.
But, it's a waste of money.
In this mansion, in terms of food, in addition to the meals and snacks in the big kitchen, even if you want to have an extra egg custard, you have to take the money to make it in the big kitchen.
Not to mention, if you use individuals to do things, you will have to give me one or two rewards.
In addition, the ladies in the mansion also take turns to treat guests from time to time. If someone celebrates his birthday or has any happy events, they will naturally have to give a gift. If they don’t care about one person, they will have to pay together.
Furthermore, there are big festivals in the mansion. When there are too many places to spend money, the eldest lady wants to deduct it, and if she gives them monthly silver, she will get the money.
The quality of the silver is good and bad, but the ones in Rong Qiaoyan's hands are naturally worse. Therefore, when Rong Qiaoyan cuts the silver, she always needs to cut more.
Besides, Rong Qiaoyan has fallen off the rockery in the past six months and is depressed again. Although Gongzhong is willing to use this sick medicinal herb. However, the manager always mocks him in his conversation.
Rong Qiaoyan had to swallow her anger and pay for some money to buy some money. What's more, the soup for nourishing her body also had to pay for it.
Not to mention, Rong Qiaoyan gave Lin Wanqing expensive gifts before.
Later, in order to match the self-defense powder, she spent a lot of money to buy her medicinal materials.
If Aunt Shuang hadn't paid her monthly money to supplement her, I'm afraid she wouldn't have saved money now.
After watching Yueyin, Rong Qiaoyan went to see clothes and jewelry again.
It’s okay to have clothes, although there are no expensive fabrics, there are always a few clothes that can be seen when you go out.
As for jewelry, except for the jewelry that the Grandma and the Grandma rewarded for their concubines, most of the things left are worthless.
The expensive jewelry was recorded in the booklets in the mansion, so naturally it could not be sold easily.
Especially, whether it is selling or taking action after leaving, it always leaves clues to the mansion for pursuit.
Jewelry such as silk flowers can only be viewed and cannot be exchanged for money.
The other jewelry that can be exchanged for money is mostly small pearl jewelry and silver jewelry, and there are few gold jewelry, not to mention other expensive gems, and the like. It can’t be exchanged for a lot of money even if you sell it.
After the woman in Rong's house was ten years old, the mansion was serious about giving jewelry.
The head and face mentioned in that example did not mention a few specific items. Therefore, a hairpin and a pair of earrings dare to say it was a head and face.
Everyone knows that this is the harshness of the eldest lady, but no one really sues it...
Who should I sue it?
Rong Shoufu doesn't care about backyard affairs.
The Grandma, as long as the mistress is not the one who is so cruel to the concubine's daughter, she will not care about anything.
As for the master, forget it.
After all, Aunt Shuang and Rong Qiaoyan are not favored. Therefore, it is useless to sue.
Rong Qiaoyan asked Miaozhi to put away the money box and makeup box.
