It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 401

Madam Wang said anxiously, "That's the master, but I don't know how much daily necessities are. Ma'am, please show the master the bills of Ruyilou, Fangcuifang, and Mozhizhai these days. Since last year, the master's expenses have decreased from The 100 taels of silver a month has become 200 taels, and in recent months, 600 taels have become unbearable. The old lady only gives you 100 taels of silver every month, how can this be enough? Besides marrying an official The eldest young master is not the only one with Miss Jia. I have seen the second young master working very hard recently. Maybe he will win the exam soon. When the time comes, the second young master will marry an official lady, isn't it the same? The two of them A brother, a woman whose family is rich, and a woman's family can say in the officialdom, supporting each other is a beautiful thing, isn't it?"

Ms. Wang's eloquent life made Li's face bloom immediately, and she said, "Why didn't I think of it before, it's the truth, I'm going to tell the master about it." After finishing speaking, she walked quickly go back.

Seeing that Mrs. Li went to Qian Qiuhong's study, Ms. Wang breathed a sigh of relief, touched the purse of silver in her pocket, and thought, Mrs. Feng, the wife's elder sister, is very rich, but she was allowed After saying a few good words in front of her, I wrapped up 20 taels of silver for her. I didn't know how much silver it was until the matter was completed. The more I thought about it, the happier I was, and I happily turned around and left.

Could it be that Qian Qiuhong, who came back earlier, was reading a book, but saw Li Shi hurried in, and he asked displeasedly, "What's wrong?"

But after a while, when the servant girl went in to deliver the tea, she heard Qian Qiuhong inside said with some trepidation, "It's not that I don't know that the family often cannot transfer money, but my annual salary is only that, you let me get filial piety." ... We absolutely cannot do this kind of thing now, and as for the Zhaoling marriage you mentioned, that's not acceptable either... No, if you don't pay me the money, how can I have the face to socialize in the future?"

After a while, the madam's cry was heard again in the room, and it was about a quarter of an hour before the master Qian Qiuhong's voice of compromise came, "Okay, but you should ask the boss, if he really doesn't want to, I can't help it." .”

Afterwards, Mrs. Li said in an unquestionable voice, "Marriage matters are what parents say, what's wrong with him?"

"Hey, it's up to you..."

The maid thought, could it be that the marriage of the young master is about to be finalized?
The servant girl named Ziyan is very close to Xiao Mo, the book boy next to Qian Zhaoling. After listening to the conversation between the two, she made an excuse to go to the other servant girl to relieve the tea, and she hurried They went to the courtyard where Qian Zhaoling lived.

Xiao Mo took a few taels of silver and stuffed it into Zi Yan's hand, and said, "Thank you for remembering my young master, otherwise it's really... Madam is so cruel, others are waiting for their son to win the prize." It is good to propose a marriage, but also to find a good character, virtuous and good woman, she is good, just because of the dowry of 5 taels of silver, I can't wait so much, and I don't care if the girl is suitable or not, but I am really confused by lard .”

Zi Yan felt very sympathetic when she heard this, but she didn't dare to stay longer, and said, "I have to go back, or they will find out."

After leaving with Ziyan, Xiao Mo told Qian Zhaoling exactly what Ziyan said to Qian Zhaoling with great indignation, and said, "Eldest young master, this family really can't stay here any longer. That's good, I'm doing my best for this family, why does Madam not want to see you so much? Why don't you tell the concubine Zhen in the palace, tell the emperor, and let you go back to the west mansion next door. "

Qian Zhaoling was much calmer than Xiao Mo, and said, "It's not that simple."
