My cold and indifferent husband was reborn with me

Chapter 19
Jiang Xiyuan took the maid's suggestion, and immediately came to the eldest lady, there was a burst of soft words in the courtyard, after all, she was her own daughter, there was no overnight feud between mother and daughter.

As soon as Jiang Xiyuan was subdued, the eldest lady immediately let go of the past, but regarding the matter of the second prince Yun Mu, Jiang Xiyuan was still very firm, and promised the eldest lady that Yun Mu would never let her down.

The eldest lady just shook her head helplessly after hearing this, and finally stopped arguing with Jiang Xiyuan over this matter.

This time, the eldest lady took out another booklet, and Jiang Xiyuan wondered if she wanted to choose a husband for her again.

Unexpectedly, the eldest lady said: "This is the account book of the prime minister's mansion. As the eldest daughter, you will be the mistress when you marry in the future. You must learn to take care of the big and small things in the mansion, and you should not take it lightly."

The eldest lady was chatting with other wives recently. I heard that the daughter of the Song family was not taught what she should learn to be a mistress because her biological mother died young. The concubine took power.

That little concubine was also wild-minded. Seeing that the power of middle class in the mansion was in her own hands, she suppressed the mistress everywhere, causing the Song family's daughter to live a miserable life.

Parents love their son, and they have far-reaching plans for it. The eldest lady also thinks so. She doesn't want her daughter to marry without knowing anything and be overwhelmed by a concubine.

When Jiang Xiyuan heard the eldest lady say this, she thought that the eldest lady had acquiesced in the matter between herself and Yun Mu, so she agreed happily.

She felt that what the eldest lady said was right, she had to learn to take care of the miscellaneous affairs in the house, the second prince was a prince after all, the second prince's mansion needed a capable mistress, and the second prince needed a good wife.

Jiang Xiyuan looked at it seriously, but Jiang Xiyuan had no experience after all, and she was very strong. The eldest lady told the housekeeper to help Jiang Xiyuan as much as possible, and she didn't want to ask for advice humbly, and she didn't want other people to intervene, so she was self-righteous and reckless.

The servants at the bottom soon learned that the eldest lady is now helping to manage the prime minister's mansion, Jiang Xiyuan only does things according to her own ideas, and ignores many things that should be paid attention to, and doesn't like the housekeeper's comments on her. Everyone slackened up, and began to play tricks and make profits from it.

Jiang Wenyue was the Chi Yu who was affected by the disaster. In the past, when the eldest lady was in charge of the housekeeping, she would strictly check the accounts, so that the subordinates did not dare to earn kickbacks from the master.

Jiang Xiyuan was young and impatient. At the beginning, she read the account book carefully, but in the next few days, she just flipped through a few pages and stopped reading.

Jiang Wenyue was also a concubine, and was not taken seriously, so the servants began to deduct Jiang Wenyue's duties in the yard.

Gradually, Jiang Wenyue found that the food delivered was getting worse and worse.

When Ranxiang went to collect the monthly money, the portion was actually reduced by half.

Dyexiang and the servant in charge of distributing the monthly money argued, and the servant said confidently that now the prime minister's mansion is the housekeeper of the eldest lady, and this rule is also stipulated by the eldest lady. If you want a theory, you can go to the eldest lady.

In fact, Jiang Xiyuan did make such a request.

She thought, these concubines of hers usually stay at home, food and clothing are all from the prime minister's mansion, and the monthly money can't be so much, so in order to save money, they started to reduce some.

The servants of the prime minister's mansion took the opportunity to earn kickbacks from it, and if asked, they would say it was Jiang Xiyuan's intention.

Ranxiang returned to the courtyard like a deflated ball, and showed the monthly bill to Jiang Wenyue: "Miss, the accountant said that the house is now the eldest lady's housekeeper, and the eldest lady wants to reduce the expenses of the prime minister's mansion, so the monthly money is only this little." gone."

Jiang Wenyue took the bag and weighed it, and it turned out to be half of what it was last month, which was too much. Jiang Xiyuan lived too well, did she think that these concubines usually drink northwest wind?
Originally, the concubine's monthly money was not much, but Jiang Xiyuan's embezzlement, this month's life can be imagined.

Jiang Wenyue secretly complained about Jiang Xiyuan, and Ran Xiang asked, "Miss, what shall we do? How can such a small amount of money be enough for expenses?"

Jiang Wenyue let out a long breath: "Did you ask clearly, besides me, there are so many third and fourth misses."

Ran Xiang nodded: "The servant also asked the maids in Miss San and Miss Si's yard, and there are so many of them."

What Jiang Xiyuan did was really amazing.

Ran Xiang continued: "The maidservant also heard that it was the eldest lady who saw that the eldest lady had reached the age of marriage and asked the eldest lady to learn how to manage the house, so that she could be a good housekeeper when she married, so she temporarily gave up the power of the middle class in the mansion. Leave it to the eldest lady, or let's talk to the madam, if the eldest lady does this again, how will your life be, miss."

Jiang Wenyue shook her head, the eldest lady would definitely protect her own daughters, so why would she care about the lives of concubines like them.

Therefore, the method of dyeing incense is not good.

Jiang Wenyue came up with the idea again, that is to start a business to make money by himself: "If only I could have a capital, I will definitely find a way to start making money, and we will have more than we can spend in the future."

Jiang Wenyue picked up her chopsticks and wanted to eat, but seeing the dishes on the table with no use for oil or water was so unappetizing that she simply put down her chopsticks.

There were four plates of green vegetables on the table. When cooking, the servants in the kitchen probably wished they didn't put a drop of oil in them. This dish looked really devoid of appetite.

Jiang Wenyue suddenly missed the three dishes and one soup she had with Ranxiang at Tianxianglou.

Yun Chi soon learned from his subordinates that Jiang Wenyue's monthly payment had been withheld, and he could only eat vegetarian meals for lunch, so he immediately asked the servants of the prime minister's mansion to give Jiang Wenyue a bag of money.

Looking at the bulging money bag, Jiang Wenyue thought it was silver, but when she opened it, it was full of gold. She was very surprised, so she asked the servants of the prime minister's mansion who sent it.

The servant of the prime minister's mansion shook his head: "I don't know, it's just a man, tall and big, dressed in black, and he said he wanted the little one to give the money to the second lady of the prime minister's mansion."

"Wow, that's a lot of gold."

Ran Xiang was very happy: "Miss, who sent it?"

This person knew that Jiang Wenyue's life was very difficult, so he came to give charcoal in the snow, which is great, but the young lady of his family doesn't have such a rich friend.

But Jiang Wenyue guessed who it was all at once, and immediately said to the servant who gave the money: "Where did you get the money from? I don't want it."

The servant was very embarrassed: "Second Miss, that person took the money and left, where can I find the servant?"

Jiang Wenyue let out a long breath, well, it seems that she has to find a way to pay it back.

At night, just as the lights in Jiang Wenyue's courtyard were turned off, Yun Chi came.

"Yaoyao, I know that you haven't had enough money in your monthly bill recently, so I got someone to send you some money, have you received it?"

"That's what you're talking about, isn't it?"

Jiang Wenyue took out the bulging bag.

Yunchi nodded.

"I'll give it back to you." Jiang Wenyue stretched out a hand towards Yunchi, with a cold attitude, "I don't want it."
