I saw Xie Yu moving a small wooden box over and said: "Since you married me, although it is just a temporary fake couple, you are at least the head of the Xie family in name. Since I have no high-ranking officials, this family finally has someone." Mistress."
"I know that you have a noble mind and don't like to be tired, but since you are the mistress of the Xie Mansion, you should be in charge, otherwise how will you let others see it."
Lin Daiyu was puzzled that Xie Yu would actually say this, and then she replied: "Since you believe me, I have nothing to say. I think there is nothing to worry about in your family."
Xie Yu first took out a stack of deeds from the wooden box and said: "These are the ones who signed the death deeds. There are more than 20 people in my hands. The living deeds are in Qian Xue's hands. There are about fifty people, and although there are others, I have released them all with a good heart."
Lin Daiyu: "Qianxue?"
Xie Yu: "She used to live in Master Bao's room. Because of Nanny Li, she was kicked out of the Jia Mansion. I needed to hire someone at that time. I saw her selling scraps on the street and said she came from the Duke's Mansion. , so I hired him.”
Lin Daiyu looked at Xie Yu with suspicion: "Oh..."
Xie Yu: "Don't overthink it. The affairs of the back house are always a woman's business. It's not appropriate for me to be in charge of it as an old man, so I'll let her take care of it first."
"Don't worry, she will be handed over to you tomorrow. These are all things you will have to take care of in the future."
When Lin Daiyu heard what Xie Yu said, she couldn't help but said: "They manage things well, why should I rob them?"
Xie Yu smiled awkwardly and continued to talk about the shops, houses, and farms that could provide income for the inner house. It was roughly estimated that the income would be as little as one thousand taels per month, plus another seven or eight thousand taels of silver.
This Xie Mansion is much richer than I thought. Of course, I would definitely not dare to compare it with the Duke's Mansion.
However, there are only a small number of people in the Xie Mansion, and the income is much less than the income, so it is possible to save so much money.
As for the Duke's Mansion, although it has a lot of income, it has been shrinking in recent years. However, the family's various expenses have not decreased, but have the intention of spending more.
Just like this, it was Wang Xifeng, the second mistress of Lian, who still managed to do it in spite of all kinds of infamy.
Outsiders only see Wang Xifeng as a loan shark, using the name of Jia's family to illegally settle people's affairs, but the small amount of income that fills the big hole of Jia's family will not make any noise.
Only a few masters in the mansion knew about this and kept it from the servants. Due to lack of knowledge, the servants thought that Jia's mansion was the same as before.
But the masters are all selfish, relying on the shadow, but they are actually idiots, and they are used to enjoying themselves, hiding their ears and stealing the bell! Self-deception!
Seeing so many banknotes, although Lin Daiyu was not greedy for money, she thought that Xie Yu's words just now might be true, but she still said: "It's quite a lot, so how much is the monthly payment you gave me!"
Xie Yu: "Monthly regulations? This is quite a thing!"
"That's right, how many old ladies did your family have, how many did you have, and how many girls did you have in Duke Rongguo's mansion?"
Lin Daiyu naturally understood what Xie Yu meant, so she said: "My grandmother has the most monthly income, but she has twenty taels of silver, and I have twenty taels of silver."
"Zijuan is the eldest girl from my grandmother's side and has one tael of silver. Although Xueyan comes from my hometown in Gusu, she is a second-class girl and has 800 coins. Chunxian is a third-class girl and has 500 coins..." "
Then, he waited for Xie Yu to answer.
Xie Yu understood what she meant, and exhaled: "Since you married me into my family, you will naturally become the mistress of the family, and your monthly schedule will be calculated according to the old lady!"
Although Lin Daiyu was not greedy for money, hearing what Xie Yu said and seeing the feedback she received from her trial showed that Xie Yu really respected her. She was overjoyed and teased, "My grandmother has twenty taels. I'm just a junior. You Naturally, our home cannot be compared with the Duke’s Mansion, so why don’t you give it up!”
Xie Yu: "What's the point of not giving up?"
Xie Yu: "Then let's calculate it as 20 taels per month. As for Zijuan, I want to give you one or two taels as before, and you can adjust it yourself for any subsequent increases or decreases."
"What you said is true. After all, I have just become an official. My ability to save and train people is not comparable to that of the Duke's government."
"Since the situation in the mansion cannot be compared with the nobles and nobles of the Duke's mansion, since you are from everyone, you will need to adjust many of the rules in the mansion, especially in the back house."
Lin Daiyu snorted lightly, adding that the power of the head of the family would naturally fall into her hands. She didn't want to take it, but she couldn't let it go. This was the rule.
Lin Daiyu understood that Xie Yu seemed to have a lot of money in the ledger. But after all, she was not familiar with the situation, so she wanted to fight for it like this first, just to test Xie Yu and get some initiative.
After all, he is different from Mr. Bao who knows everything.
So, he nodded and said: "That's pretty much it."
In this case, only her grandmother had so much silver in the Jia family, and as a young lady, she only had 2 taels. "
However, thinking about being a housekeeper for Xie Yu, she had to worry about a lot of things. Lin Daiyu liked purity and disliked secular affairs.
But she still nodded and went on, not only for the sake of the twenty taels of silver, but also for the respect Xie Yu gave her, and for the hope that Xie Yu would keep his promise.
In fact, just like modern people, most people don’t like to work. They work to make money.
Lin Daiyu has been looking at people's eyes since she was a child. Although she is known as a public servant, she also realized the importance of money early.
So Lin Daiyu, who changed her mind, continued to ask: "What should I say about Zijuan's one or two month period, the Snow Goose, Zijuan, Chunxian, and Ouguan I brought."
Xie Yu: "Zijuan is your eldest maid. In principle, their salary cannot be higher than Zijuan's. In this way, I will let Qianxue hand over to you tomorrow and you can decide it yourself."
Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu suddenly said: "Then Qianxue has been your housekeeper for so long, why don't you accept her as your aunt!"
As soon as she said this, Lin Daiyu felt that she had made a mistake.
Gang added: "You don't have to tell me, I just asked casually."
Xie Yu: "Actually, it's simple, and there's nothing that can't be said. I like the saying that one person, one person, one person, two people."
"I think girls must be wives. Even if they marry poorly, they must never be concubines."
"A concubine shows off her beauty to others. It sounds nice to say that she is half slave and half master, but she is actually still a servant. If the master is kind-hearted, it is fine, but most people are not. They will either beat or scold them, or give them to others for sale, which is too insulting. Not advisable."
"After decades of life, it is better to take a long-term view. If you are a wife, you are also the head of the house. She is equal to her husband in terms of status. If you have the support of your natal family, you will not rely on your husband to live."
"Actually, you should have heard that I have opened many schools, and there are many poor students like me among them. If they can get fame, agenda, home, and wives, I will arrange it for them."
Lin Daiyu looked at Xie Yu strangely and said nothing.
Xie Yu: "What's wrong, are you a little sleepy?"
After Lin Daiyu came back to her senses, she quickly yawned and said: "What you thought..., forget it, it's enough, this day..."
Xie Yu: "Then let's go to bed first. There are still many things to do tomorrow!"
Lin Daiyu: "That's fine, it's just..."
Xie Yu: "I understand what you mean. I have already prepared extra bedding. I can sleep on the small couch in the cubicle later."
Lin Daiyu: "It's better that I sleep in the cubicle. That's where the little girl sleeps with you. You go and sleep there. You have an official position. If I sleep somewhere, you will be wronged."
Xie Yu: "What's wrong with this? When I was poor, I slept in a ruined temple and in the wilderness."
"You married me. I know you feel aggrieved. I am not Mr. Bao. I know that it is difficult for me to have the same interests as you, so I can only take care of you in life."
"Besides, you are still a patient, so don't succumb to yourself. It is a bit cold in October, and your body is not suitable for using a fire pit. If you are cold, you can also add a quilt."
Seeing that Lin Daiyu was persuaded by him and refused, Xie Yu said nothing more.
Then, when Lin Daiyu saw that Xie Yu had indeed taken a set of quilts from a cabinet, she consciously spread them in the inner room and asked the girl to serve on the bed.
Seeing this, although Lin Daiyu felt embarrassed, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The situation was better than expected.
As soon as she felt relaxed, Lin Daiyu felt sleepy.
But I could only put the scissors on the side of the pillow, cover my chest with one hand with the two old handkerchiefs inscribed with poets, and did not communicate with Xie Yu. I was going to take a nap and then wake up again to prevent Xie Yu...
After all, the stories and lessons in many books tell Lin Daiyu that girls are more likely to be deceived by men's sweet words.
However, even though she was on guard against Xie Yu, it was already dawn when she woke up. Lin Daiyu seemed to have not felt so relaxed for a long time, as if the stone pressing on her heart had become smaller.
Naturally, she didn't know that this was because Xie Yu used the Muchen Bead and Fengyue Baojian to nourish and "help" Lin Daiyu with the illusory spiritual energy after cheating.
It's just that Lin Daiyu has a congenital fetal disease after all, so she doesn't dare to open the plug-in. She can only slowly nurse her body back to adapt to the environment, otherwise she will be intoxicated.
Therefore, Xie Yucai said to give him three years.
Lin Daiyu opened her eyes and came back to her senses. She quickly took the scissors by the pillow and touched the old handkerchief with a poem on her chest. She saw no change on her body and heard the sound of Xie Yu sleeping soundly inside, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Lin Daiyu gently dressed and stood up. As soon as she finished dressing, she saw Xie Yu stretching and getting up.
So, Lin Daiyu quickly turned around and said, "Why are you getting up too!"
Xie Yu: "It's almost daytime. It's time to get up. There are people waiting for us outside. Please wait a moment."
Seeing that someone was waiting outside, he sighed with emotion at Qian Xue's arrangement. After a while, he stuffed the bedding back into the cabinet. Xie Yu said to Lin Daiyu, "Let me lend you the scissors!"
Lin Daiyu hesitated, thinking that it was already dawn and Xie Yu would not dare to do anything else, so she "temporarily" lent her scissors to Xie Yu.
The night was uneventful, which made Lin Daiyu trust Xie Yu a little more.
A few drops of blood were dripped on the white towel and wiped again.
Lin Daiyu suddenly thought of Jia Mu's teachings and her face turned red.
He whispered: "You, why are you doing this?"
Xie Yu: "The right way is to marry with a lot of money and marry with a perfect body. The one who carries the eight-carriage sedan chair is a lady of the family. I will not let others say anything about you in this regard."
Then, Xie Yu lay down on the bed where Lin Daiyu had been lying just now, and smelled a strange fragrance, like a medicinal fragrance.
I was about to smell more to distinguish, but suddenly I felt that this would look very obscene.
Pretending to sleep together last night, they stayed still and asked Lin Daiyu to call someone.
However, when Lin Daiyu turned around, Xie Yu was still a little lewd.
For sin, sin, will he be beaten to death by Lin fans?
Just be a gentleman!
Not to mention this little incident!
Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, the mother-in-law who arranged for Jia Mu to come over was the first one she looked for. Seeing this, she felt happy.
But without looking at the details, Xie Yu took it away and stuffed it into a small cabinet.
The mother-in-law just thought the new uncle was embarrassed and didn't say anything. They just checked for confirmation.
Xie Yu didn't know if he was lucky or unlucky to marry Lin Daiyu, who could only watch but not move.
Later, Zijuan and Xueyan helped Lin Daiyu dress up, but when Xueyan was about to give Lin Daiyu her usual hairstyle, Zijuan sighed.
Pointing at Xie Yu, Lin Daiyu blushed and whispered: "Come comb it!"
Then, she put down her braided bun and changed into a woman's hairstyle in the style of a pony bun.
Seeing that Lin Daiyu used silk floss dipped in red and blue flower juice and beef marrow to make cotton rouge, Xie Yu did not object. However, when she wanted to use cinnabar and mineral oil for lip balm, Xie Yu was a little uncomfortable with the heavy metals contained in it. Easy to say.
In the future, let her try the lipstick she made with beeswax, honey, olive oil, and fruit vitamins. Not only is it harmless to the body, but all the female students in the girls' school said it was good after using it.
However, Lin Daiyu's hair is really long. Especially for women, it is really troublesome to have a beautiful hairstyle in order to be beautiful.
In fact, it's the same for Xie Yu. He often secretly shortens his hair, and it's okay if he can tie it into a small bun.
The two of them cleaned up separately without mentioning it.
Only Zijuan and Lin Daiyu were left. Zijuan whispered: "Girl, I only thought he was a good doctor, but I didn't expect that man to be so ugly. He just wanted to do good things."
"I still say that ten thousand taels of gold are easy to come by, but a close friend is hard to find. If it's Mr. Bao..."
Seeing Lin Daiyu sigh, I want to cry again!
Zijuan said again: "Girl, is he bullying you?"
"If he bullies you, just tell me and I will teach him a lesson for you. The old lady told me that she is your supporter and cannot let you be bullied by that person."
"I feel for you sincerely, girl. I have been worried about you for the past few years. You have no parents and no brothers. When it comes to people who feel sorry for you, who else but Mr. Bao!"
"It's good to think of our second master, since you grew up together and know each other's temperament and temperament. I really don't know what the old lady thinks, taking that kind of joke seriously and asking you to marry this grass mud leg. It really ruins the girl’s pure and pure body.”
Lin Daiyu: "Zijuan, don't say this again..., at least say it less..."
After hesitating for a while, he still didn't tell her about the agreement with Xie Yu.
He just said something aside: "Last night, I had an agreement with that person. Your monthly schedule is still the same as in the original mansion. You still have one or two monthly schedules, but the others may be worse and cannot be compared with the original mansion."
Zijuan naturally understood that the other things Lin Daiyu was talking about were the original welfare rewards for festivals and the like.
So, Zijuan said, "Girl, that's pretty good. Speaking of which, that person isn't too stingy."
"I know that this girl Wei is fighting for us. It's good to know that she has us in her heart. She is already prepared to suffer when she comes."
