Royal Beloved Black Wife

   Chapter 14 Where did the money come from

   The shopkeeper only felt the cold wind blowing over his head, and the hairs all over his body stood up...

   When we returned to Chu's house, the sun had already started to set in the west.

The old lady's deterrence played a big role. As soon as she heard that Chu Qianqian took the token and went to the shop to help, An Susu no longer had a headache or soreness in her waist. She pinched her shoulders and beat her back again. Serve the old lady comfortably.

  Not only that, but also people went to the street to spend a lot of money to buy a jade Guanyin, which is much more valuable than Samo fish.

   As for the Shen shi, she also gave a heavy gift.

  The old lady has earned enough face and is obviously very satisfied.

   But this satisfaction did not last long, because Chu Qianqian came back.

  Chu Qianqian gave a salute: "Grandma." Glancing at An Susu, she also said hello.

  An Susu smiled and said, "Qianqian has worked hard, come and sit down."

   refused to mention anything in the shop, and neither did the old lady.

   In their opinion, Chu Qianqian is a little girl who has not yet reached her age. If it sounds good, she goes to help, but if she speaks badly, it is to go out and play. After all, if the old lady really wanted to ask her to take over, she would queue up a talkative mother to say hello in advance, and she would also designate the corresponding steward to call her to run the doorway.

   There is no arrangement, just a token, how can it help? What can you see?

   Of course nothing!

  An Susu smiled slowly.

  Chu Qianqian didn't care whether anyone asked, and said straight to the point: "Account, there is a problem."

  An Susu's smile froze.

  The old lady was drinking tea. After hearing this, she put down the teacup and looked at Chu Qianqian: "What's the problem?"

  Chu Qianqian replied slowly: "Each store doesn't make any money, and Juxianlou loses the most. In five years, excluding various costs, it has lost a total of 13,000 taels."

   Thirteen thousand taels?

   So much? !

   The old lady's face was not good-looking.

  An Susu's eyes flashed, and she said with a candid smile, "Could it be that...you read it wrong? Reading accounts is also a science, and not everyone can understand it."

"Yeah, yeah, maybe you're wrong." The old lady didn't want to believe that the shop that the Chu family depended on for their survival lost so much money. Besides, if they really lost money, how could their life go on? to be so rich?

  Chu Qianqian said slowly, "Have I read it wrong? My grandmother sent a trustworthy accountant to check it out."

   emphasized the word "trustworthy".

   An Susu's cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.

  Chu Qianqian looked at her and curled the corners of her lips: "I'm very curious, my father's salary is not high, and the shop is so bad, where did the county owner get the money to make the Chu family live so rich and so good?"

  Where did the money come from…Where did the money come from? !

   These words kept circling in An Susu's mind, and cold sweat broke out layer by layer.

   What would you say?

   Said the shop did not lose money?

Can-

   "Did I read it wrong, my grandmother sent a trustworthy accountant to check it out."

   In case the old lady really sends someone to investigate, she can't hide her great ability!

   "Mother." She finally lowered her voice, with a look of guilt and forbearance, "Yes, the shop... It really doesn't make any money."

   There was a hint of disappointment in the eyes of the old lady. When Mr. Shen was in charge, although the shop didn't make much money, it actually made a profit. Now that it is in the hands of An Susu, it has lost so many years.

   "Then where did our family get the money?" The old lady asked after looking at Chu Qianqian. Don't blame her for being so careless, not to mention the other courtyards, the Fushouyuan alone costs as much as a hundred taels a month, and that's not even counting the antiques and jewelry that An Susu bought to honor her—

  An Susu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a nappa, lowered his eyebrows and said, "I didn't want to tell my mother, but since my mother asked, I will tell the truth."

  In the house, it was quiet again.

   In this eerie tranquility, An Susu's voice was particularly abrupt.

   "In the past few years, the capital's business has not been very good. Not only our Chu family's shop, but many other shops have also lost money. I was afraid that my mother and master would be worried, so I didn't tell you, and only filled it with my own dowry."

  I don't know if the An family has money or not, but the Ouyang family is extremely rich. After being exterminated, half of the Ouyang family's property was taken over by the royal family, and half was taken away by the clan, but An Susu's mother and daughter did not lose a cent.

   The old lady looked slightly: "You are also true, you can't make money without making money, why hide it? You have paid so much money yourself."

   After that, I felt that it was wrong. Since I married the Chu family, the money belonged to the Chu family, so how could it be considered her pocket?

   cleared his throat and said again, "Ah, the family is difficult, you should tell us, why are you spending so much? Look, after spending so much money, there will be less dowry left for Jin'er in the future."

   is clearly a cheerful tone!

   An Susu's dowry has only two purposes, one is for Ouyang Jin, and the other is for the Chu family. The more it is posted to the Chu family, the less is left for Ouyang Jin, and it is not her own. The old lady naturally prefers the second type.

  An Susu pursed her lips shyly: "In my heart and Jin'er, the Chu family is the most important thing."

  The old lady smiled contentedly.

   An Susu was secretly relieved!

Unexpectedly, this sigh of relief has not been finished yet, over there, Chu Qianqian spoke again: "There is no need to ask the county master to spend money. My mother is the daughter-in-law, and she should spend the money. How much the county master posted, my mother, a A lot of land will be returned to the county master."

   As soon as these words came out, the room fell into a daze. Especially Wang's mother, her eyes almost fell out. Hasn't she seen how poor Madam is? In the past five years, it's a miracle that you didn't starve to death. Where did the money come from?

   "Dowry."

   She said, dowry? !

   Yes, Shen shi also took the dowry when she got married. The Shen family was a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, and there were no Grange shops in the capital, so they turned it into gold and silver jewelry as a dowry. At that time, the fleet of dowries only occupied a street full of them.

   Later, Shen shi left the Chu family with Chu Qianqian, and the dowry fell into the hands of Master Chu. And Mr. Chu loves An Susu, so he naturally entrusts it to An Susu for safekeeping.
