According to the rules, the bill is to be settled at the end of the twelfth lunar month. Under Yurong's name, there are four shops, two houses for rent, and more than two thousand acres of fertile land, so these days are particularly busy.
After finishing the calculation, a smile appeared on Yu Rong's face: "This year can have a good year." This year's income is 20% more than last year. The main reason is that this year's grain harvest was higher than last year's, and grain prices were higher than last year's.
Hong Yin lowered his voice and said, "Madam, I heard that Mrs. Uncle's complexion has not looked good these days. Isn't the income of the mansion this year not good?"
Yurong snorted coldly, but didn't say much: "Don't care about her." Before turning his face with Lu Yao, the chicken, duck and fish delivered by Yurong Zhuangzi were all for everyone to eat. In addition, she often gave it to her. Nephew and niece buy paper, pen, rouge and other things. But since Lu Yao calculated her, Yu Rong has become an iron cock, with no hair.
Hong Yin had something to say, but it was stopped by Hong Hua: "Madam, prepare the clothes for Young Master Zheng. When Young Master Huizheng comes back, let him have a try. If it doesn't fit, you can change it." Hong The needlework of the flowers is very good, and the master and servant usually sit together to do needlework.
Yurong smiled and nodded: "Okay."
In the evening, Yizheng came back, but his face was very ugly, so gloomy that it could drip.
Yurong was taken aback and asked hurriedly, "Zheng'er, what's the matter with you? Did someone bully you?"
Yizheng took off his azurite satin squirrel skin cloak, and said coldly, "Mother, don't worry, it's okay."
Just looking at Yizheng's face, it is impossible to be all right. Yu Rong said anxiously, "You kid, do you want to worry about your dead mother? What happened?"
Upon seeing the government, I had to speak, "Mother, it's nothing wrong. Just on the way back, I heard the two women say something unacceptable, and I kicked them both in anger."
Yi Yurong's understanding of his son would not make his son so furious if it weren't too excessive. Yu Rong asked, "What did you say?"
Yizheng snorted coldly: "Mother, don't ask, it's not a good thing anyway." He couldn't say such swear words.
Upon seeing this, Yu Rong had to put the matter down temporarily. But turning around, she asked Yizheng's close servant.
After listening to Xiao Si's words, Yu Rong's face looked like pig liver. Saying that she was eating and living for nothing in the Han Mansion would have to bear it, but she said she was unclear with Mr. Gao, and there was something more disgusting than this! It is no wonder that the Israeli government will have such a big fire.
Yizheng changed his clothes and came out. Seeing that Yurong's face was ugly, he immediately guessed that she already knew about it. Yizheng said, "Mother, I don't want to live here anymore. They will arrange you and Grandpa Gao at will. I don't know what ridiculous gossip will come out in the future."
Yu Rong nodded and said, "Okay, we will move out when the Chinese New Year is over." There are still ten days to go for the Chinese New Year. At this time, everyone's faces don't look good when they move out.
Yizheng nodded.
Yu Rong waited for Yizheng to return to his house, and then said to Honghua: "Go and see if the uncle is back? If you are back, come and report me quickly."
After a while, Honghua turned back and said: "Mrs., the uncle has just returned. This will be on the way to the main courtyard."
Yu Rong put on a fox fur cloak and went to the main courtyard. As soon as she saw Lu Yao, Yu Rong said in a cold voice: "If we can't tolerate our mothers and daughters, I just said, I'm not stubborn and stubborn at my mother's house. Why use such a trick."
Han Jiancheng had a headache when he saw this, and asked, "What happened to the Chinese New Year?" During this time, Yu Rong didn't say anything in front of Han Jiancheng, but Lu Yao blew a lot of pillow breeze, saying that Yu Rong was getting more and more. Stingy or something. If you listen to it too much, it will naturally be affected.
What's wrong with what is called? Hearing this, Yu Rong's heart was cold: "When Yizheng came back, I heard the two wives say that I was unclear with Mr. Gao, and that they were too angry to be punished. As a result, the two wives Zi said that Yizheng is just a young master who lives in Han Mansion and eats free food. He is not their master and is not qualified to be punished. Yizheng kicked the two women a few feet. "Because the outside world is not peaceful, Yizheng is around. In addition to a small servant, there are also two personal entourages. Of course, this is an external statement. In fact, the two entourages are both Lianjiazi, Yizheng's bodyguards.
Speaking of this, Yu Rong's tears fell: "Mr. Gao is my father-in-law’s staff, because he has been teaching Yizheng because of his father’s grace. Not to mention that Mr. Gao’s age is more than enough to be my father. He just said that since moving out of Jiangxi My family has never seen Mr. Gao, and I don’t know which scornful thing spread such rumours."
The appearance of such evil slaves is the fault of the mistress. Han Jiancheng looked at Lu Yao with a slightly ugly expression and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lu Yao was a little angry, isn't this daring thing insinuating her! Lu Yao said with an innocent look on her face: "Master, I also just heard that mother Heng and the others were vomiting blood and unconscious after being beaten by Zheng, and the master came back just when I wanted to ask what was going on."
Yu Rong sneered: "Yizheng is only eleven years old this year, and he vomits blood and coma after kicking them. Are they paperless?"
Lu Yao was very angry, but she couldn't argue with Yurong in front of Han Jiancheng, otherwise it would be hers. Lu Yao said with a guilty expression: "I know that my sister is angry, because my discipline is not good. Don't worry, my sister, I will punish these two women with broken mouths severely."
Yu Rong sneered and said, "No more acting. I have asked the maids around me. They said that this unbearable rumor has been circulating in the house for some time. I'm just afraid that I'm sad to hear that, so I don't dare to tell. Me. Brother and sister, I know you are impatient for our wife to live in the mansion. Don’t worry, I will move out after the Chinese New Year and I won’t get in your eyes."
Lu Yao's face was green and white.
Han Jiancheng frowned and said, "Sister, no one wants to drive you away, don't think too much about it."
Although Yu Rong was full of fire, she didn't want to make the relationship too stiff: "This time I'm unclear with Mr. Gao. Next time, who knows what kind of cat or dog I have an affair with. Cheng, Yuanxiang Nearly smelly, I don't want to make my younger sister and brother an enemy. So don't persuade you anymore. When the Lantern Festival is out, I will move out with Yizheng." After that, Yu Rong walked out with the maid.
Han Jiancheng asked Lu Yao with a cold face, "Tell me, what the hell is going on?" If it's just a contradiction between aunts-in-laws, he must have been in trouble. But now that matters to the sister's innocence reputation, it is not a trivial problem.
Lu Yao red eyes and said: "Master, my concubine doesn't know what's going on." She knew that Yu Rong was living for nothing in Han Mansion, but she really didn't know about the arrangement of Yu Rong and Mr. Gao. . No matter how stupid, she couldn't let such a thing go.
The couple quickly found out that the rumor spreading that Yu Rong and Mr. Gao were unclear was a dowry wife of Lu Yao. The old lady was instigated by Mrs. Lu.
Knowing that it was the old lady Lu who was going to ruin Yurong’s reputation, Han Jiancheng was trembling with anger, and the eyes looking at Lu Yao were not right: "In the future, no one from the Lu family is allowed to come home, and you are not allowed to take your children to Lu’s house again. .Otherwise, don't enter the Han family's door again." He was afraid that the Lu family would destroy all the children.
Lu Yao was even more bitter than eating Coptis at this time.
That night, Han Jiancheng took Lu Yao to apologize to Yurong. Yurong accepted the couple's apology, but insisted on moving away. Yu Rong said, "Acheng, I still said that, far and near smelly. After being separated, there won't be so many things." Before living in Han Mansion, she and Lu Yao got along very well.
When Han Jiancheng saw that Yu Rong was determined to move out this time, he felt guilty and sad.
After the Lantern Festival, Yurong moved out of Hanfu and moved into Sanjing Hutong. Only the first courtyard of this house was occupied, and the two back courtyards were empty, reserved for Yurong. The courtyard of the Han Palace was narrow before, so Yizheng and Yurong lived in the same courtyard. However, Yizheng is eleven years old, and there should have been a gangbang long ago. This time, he lived in the courtyard of the second entrance.
Han Jiancheng personally sent Yu Rong to Mijing Hutong, and Mr. Gao brought his wife and his son and daughter-in-law's family to greet him.
Mr. Gao received Han Jiancheng, while his wife and daughter-in-law welcomed Yu Rong to the backyard.
Looking at Mr. Gao, whose hair and beard were all white, Han Jiancheng was ashamed thinking about the infection in the mansion. Mrs. Lu was really confused by the lard, and it was really hateful to spread such vicious rumors that the property that was not contrived by Yurong could spread such vicious rumors. It was also because of this incident that Han Jiancheng completely disgusted the Lu family.
Mr. Gao’s daughter-in-law, Rong Shi, handed over the account books of the mansion to Yu Rong in the afternoon: "Madam, this is the accounting affairs of the mansion, please check it out." Not the person who signed the contract. However, Rong Shi has always been a husband and wife, and Mr. Gao said that he would repay Jiang Wenrui's kindness and treat the Buddha well, and she has nothing to say.
Yu Rong took a few words of courtesy and took the ledger. This is her home, so she will naturally be the master of the house. However, for Mr. Gao's family, she will not treat him badly.
On the third day of moving into Mitsui Hutong, Yizheng said something to Yurong: "Mother, Mr. Gao asked me to tell you that the situation is getting worse and worse. It's best to sell the farm shop for gold and silver."
Yurong frowned and said, "You have invited Mr. Gao to come over, and I will talk to him personally." The two shops in her hand are both well placed, and the fields are all first-class good fields, so they are sold. She really couldn't bear it.
Soon, Mr. Gao followed Yizheng over.
Yu Rong asked, "Mr. Gao, you said the situation is getting worse and worse? What do you say?"
Mr. Gao said: "The South has all fallen into the hands of King Ming, and he will bring troops into the capital for up to three years. Madam, you and Concubine Han are the sisters of the same father, so you shouldn't stay in the capital anymore." Staying in the capital, it is difficult for orphans and widows to hold such a large sum of money.
Yurong was silent and said, "Uncle Zi is now the chief ambassador of Fujian. No matter how Yizheng is his aunt's nephew, he will not care about our mother and son." There is also Jiang Hongfu as a backer.
Mr. Gao explained: "Madam, every time the dynasty is changed, the land will be returned to the government. When the capital falls into the hands of King Ming, all the fields outside of Beijing will be returned to the public." If these land assets are not returned to King Gong Ming, what will be rewarded for meritorious deeds. The minister, so the change of dynasty is also a redistribution of power and wealth.
After a pause, Mr. Gao said, "Madam, if you are reluctant, you can leave three to five hundred mu." The more you leave, the more dangerous it is. During the war, gold and silver are the most reliable.
In fact, Yurong can keep her dowry because she has a concubine sister who is justly favored. If not, if a widow holds such a large sum of money in her hands, others have been black hands early, and Yurong would not have such a comfortable life.
Yu Rong's expression was a little ugly, and he thought about it and said, "Where is the house? Will our house be confiscated in the future?"
Mr. Gao shook his head and said: "The Northwest Army has strict military discipline and will not seize the homes of ordinary people, but it is hard to tell the two good pavements." Mr. Gao knows Yurong's dowry very well.
These are all things that come with money, and I really feel reluctant to sell Yu Rong just like that.
Mr. Gao also knows that it is difficult to make this decision: "If your wife is reluctant, you can sell half and keep half."
Yu Rong was entangled in her heart. She was reluctant to sell these properties, but also worried that these properties would be confiscated after the change of dynasty. After a while, I asked the son standing next to her: "Yizheng, what do you think is appropriate?"
Yizheng thought about it and said, "Mother, it's safer to replace all of them with gold and silver. When the world settles down in the future, we will re-purchase properties."
Yurong is also a very decisive person. After listening to Yizheng's words, she decided to leave a village that occupies 800 acres of land, and all other properties are ready to be sold. The output of the 800 acres of land can be eaten by the people in the mansion, so there is no need to spend extra money to buy it.
Because food has always been tight, and the price of food has been getting higher year by year, the market has done a good job in buying and selling fields. So as soon as Mr. Gao released the news that he wanted to sell the land, someone came to inquire about the price. Except for the Zhuangzi that I kept for my own use, the other fields were sold before the first month of the year, but the two shops and the house were not easy to sell.
Yu Rong sold most of the land under his name. This was not a small matter, and Lu Yao knew soon.
That night, Lu Yao said to Han Jiancheng: "Is my sister being coaxed? Such a good industry, with a lot of income every year, sell it when you say it?" It almost said that Yu Rong was deceived by Mr. Gao .
Yu Rong's business has a very good return every year. Although it is not hers, it feels a little distressed to hear that Lu Yao has sold it.
Han Jiancheng frowned and said, "I will go to Sanjing Hutong tomorrow." Han Jiancheng didn't doubt Mr. Gao, he felt that this matter was a bit abnormal, and he was uneasy.
For Han Jiancheng, Yu Rong did not conceal anything, repeating what Mr. Gao said to her: "Acheng, Mr. Gao has been with my father-in-law for so many years, and he knows more than me. Besides, I am a womanly person. With so many properties, it is really not safe." The gold and silver obtained from selling the land has been hidden in a place known only to her and Brother Zheng.
Han Jiancheng often goes out and knows more than Yurong. I bought the small house next to Han Mansion to store food in preparation for the upcoming war.
After hearing these words, Han Jiancheng didn't say much: "If you have anything to do, please ask someone to bring me a message." Sanjing Hutong is actually not far from where Han Jiancheng lives, just a quarter of an hour away.
Yurong nodded.
