Everyone felt that Duke Zhou's accident would affect his lifespan, which was not nonsense.
Not to mention anything else, Zhou Guogong used to be pampered. A man of nearly forty years old looked as young as thirty years old. But after this incident, Zhou Guogong, who had never been tortured like this before, obviously couldn't bear it. He became as old as a fifty-year-old man.
——This is also the reason why Duke Zhou doesn't want to see people, because in the mirror, Duke Zhou sees his haggard and old appearance. He can't bear this blow, so he doesn't want to see people.
You must know that Zhou Guogong is a son of a noble family, and he is very particular about his image. Now that his image has aged so much in an instant, how can he accept it?
Looking at Zhou Guogong like this, who thinks he can live longer? It’s not bad to live for another ten years.
This is not a wild guess on their part, but a scientific speculation - before, Zhou Guogong had to move every day because he had to go to court. Life depends on exercise, so he lived a long time; now, Zhou Guogong had an accident with his leg and was getting older. , don’t want to see people, stay in the yard all day without moving, which is definitely not good for your health, so it will definitely affect your life span.
Therefore, the smart people among the servants saw through this and quickly turned to Linlang and others. It was normal. After all, they still had to hang around in the mansion. Seeing that the situation in the mansion had changed, they must quickly catch up with the situation to avoid affecting them. status in the government.
After Aunt Cai and Aunt Cui were treated poorly by their servants, they wanted to complain to Zhou Guogong, but Zhou Guogong didn't see them, so they couldn't complain. As a result, they ran into trouble and had to endure it.
They obviously expected this, so they were afraid when Zhou Guogong fell.
That's right. Duke Zhou is their backer. How can they not be afraid if their backer falls?
However, they are afraid that those who have no conflict with Linlang and have seen the crisis in the house know that even if the house changes, it will not have an impact on them. They can even breathe a sigh of relief because the crisis is over. Because from now on I only have to enjoy the splendor of the house and don’t have to worry about losing my life.
Therefore, these people, like Linlang, were very happy to see Zhou Guogong get into trouble and become an official.
If something had happened to Duke Zhou and it would be difficult to celebrate, otherwise they would all have had a good celebration.
Although they couldn't celebrate on the surface, privately Mr. Tuesday and others ran out and drank some wine with a few relatives and friends.
Master Zhou is a concubine. Originally, after the death of the old Duke, Master Tuesday should live alone in a separate house. However, due to Mrs. Zhou's manipulation, they were not assigned a house and only a little money. Unable to survive outside, Zhou Guogong and Yuan Shen saw how pitiful they were and couldn't stand it, so they let them live in the mansion.
Mrs. Zhou thought, after all, after the family separation, all the money spent on the big house was left to them to waste.
Yes, the three houses of the Zhou family were actually divided. After all, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou Guogong did not have the same mother. Therefore, after the death of the old Mr. Guo, the three people with different mothers naturally divided the family property.
After the separation, because Mrs. Zhou was the wife of the old Duke and was qualified to live in the Duke's mansion, the Duke of Zhou could not drive her away and let her live with her son.
Of course, Mrs. Zhou just didn't want to leave. After all, there was no respectable Duke's mansion outside.
If Mrs. Zhou doesn't leave, Master Zhou is her son and will definitely live in the house.
Because he had raised Master Zhou's family, Zhou Guogong thought that raising one family was supporting two families, so he let Master Zhou live in the house.
However, Mr. Tuesday is not as shameless as the third bedroom. They live in the house, but in fact the expenses are spent on themselves. It is not like Mrs. Zhou thought that they spent money on the big house. On the contrary, the money spent on the third bedroom is the real money. Money for a big house.
But Sanfangyong was confident. The reason was that the imperial concubine often gave rewards to the house. They were rewarded for the sake of Mrs. Zhou Zhou. Why couldn't they enjoy it after returning to the kilometer?
——Actually, most of those rewards were given by the imperial concubine in order to win over Duke Zhou.
But this kind of thing is not divided carefully. After all, if asked in the palace, the imperial concubine will definitely say that it is divided between the cousin and the Duke of the country. Both of them have a share, and they will not completely refute Mrs. Wednesday’s face, so The third room said that he lived in the mansion and did not take advantage of the big house, which he had managed to do before.
In fact, it is impossible for the imperial concubine to receive a large amount of rewards. After all, she has too many places to spend money. How much money can she give to the Duke of Zhou's mansion? Therefore, the reward for the imperial concubine is not enough to cover the expenses of the three houses. Duke Zhou also cares about the imperial concubine. For my sake, I didn't say anything.
After all, everyone is siding with the imperial concubine. If the imperial concubine's son becomes the emperor in the future, there will be all the benefits. There is no need to worry about such trivial matters for the time being.
But now, something has happened to Duke Zhou, and he is no longer worthy of the imperial concubine's attention. There will definitely be no reward. And because something has happened to Duke Zhou and he has become an official, even if the second prince is lucky enough to become emperor in the future, Conglong's merits will not cause any problems to the Zhou family. , that is to say, there is no future benefit - although Linlang has never thought about this benefit - now that the third bedroom continues to use the expenses of the public school, Linlang plans to touch them.
Changing the treatment of Aunt Cui and others will not save much money, and it will also cause Duke Zhou to have a stress reaction, so forget it for now, but Duke Zhou will definitely not object to changing the treatment of the third room. After all, he, the third room and Mrs. Zhou , the relationship is bad.
And the money spent by the third house is much more than that of Aunt Cui and the others.
First of all, there are many mistresses in the third-bedroom house. Secondly, Mrs. Zhou and Mr. Zhou will not save money for the big house, so they often go to the palace to pay money. If Zhou Guogong hadn't stipulated the maximum amount that the masters of the family can withdraw, otherwise Wednesday The wife and Master Zhou can spend all the money they have. After all, for them, it is not their money anyway, so it is best to spend it all.
Linlang looked at the account books from previous years and found that the three-bedroom apartment, not counting Mrs. Zhou, would have spent more than 10,000 taels of silver in a year.
And how could the imperial concubine reward the Zhou family with more than 10,000 taels of silver in one year?
In addition, Mrs. Zhou thinks the same as her son. She feels that it is not her own money, but the money of the big house. If it is not wasted, she is also spending money like crazy. Therefore, just for their big family, the big house will lose 20,000 yuan. Two more silver.
The families were all divided, and the income from the land and house they were assigned belonged to themselves. They didn't need a penny, and all the expenses were from the big house. How could there be such a reason? Other families in Beijing did not do this.
So now Linlang didn't have to worry about anything happening to the Zhou family in the future, so she had time to deal with the third bedroom.
At that moment, Linlang called Mrs. Zhou Zhou over and said to her: "After the second bedroom is separated, you will bear all the expenses by yourself. There is no reason that the big bedroom should bear your expenses. From today on, all the expenses of the third bedroom will also be borne by you." The third room is responsible for itself."
