Winning every step of the Red Mansion

Let's not talk about how terrified Shi Feier was when he saw the new account book.It's just that Mrs. Wang has been dismissed for more than a month, and she can't sit still anymore.It just so happens that the weather is getting cooler this time, and the season has entered autumn.Xue's family in Jinling sent this year's new tribute chrysanthemums for the mansion to enjoy.Shi Fei'er felt in her heart that when this family is big, there are more things, and the ancients have more rules, and even the flowers and green plants are paid attention to every season or even every month, and they have to send them to the house all year round. flowers.Because the chrysanthemums were given by Xue's family, Mrs. Wang's face was a little happy, and she hurriedly chose the best one and presented it to Mother Jia to show her filial piety.

Naturally, Shi Fei'er did not have Mother Jia's love for flowers, but after all, if someone sent them, they couldn't return them, so they had to put them away.At first, Shi Feier didn't look at the account book, but she didn't think much of it. After reading the account book this time, Shi Feier looked at the flowers again, and there were no flowers in her eyes. It was obvious that the pots were filled with piles of white flowers. , I often look in a daze when I look at it.Seeing this, Mrs. Wang thought that Jia Mu liked it very much and felt that she had face again, so she often came to Jia Mu's place to walk around.It doesn't matter to Shi Feier, anyway, she knows exactly what kind of person Mrs. Wang is, if she thinks that she was bought by a few potted flowers, it would be too funny.Besides, if he doesn't speak, then Imperial Physician Yuan will continue to treat the second wife of our family well.

Mrs. Wang often walks around in front of Jiamu, asking for nothing, because she said she was sick and resigned from the housekeeper. She thought that Jiamu would come back in a few days.After all, elderly people work on the ledger all day long, which is tiring and tedious, and very boring.Mrs. Wang knew that Jia's mother was most annoyed by these mundane and trivial matters. Besides, she hadn't directly been in charge of the house for many years. When the old lady was in charge of the house, she just checked and asked at the end of the year. If she let her worry about it for a while, it would be too late. It won't be long before I find an excuse to let myself be a housekeeper again.Who would have thought that this time it was really a miscalculation.

He claimed that he had been ill for a few days, but Jia Mu hadn't let him regain power yet.Mrs. Wang couldn't sit still anymore, she asked someone to inquire in private, and found that instead of finding it trivial and boring, Jia's mother was quite concerned about this matter.Mrs. Wang comforted herself, but it was just a few days since Jia Mu hadn't been in charge for a long time.Two days later, seeing that Jia's mother was still conscientious, she felt a little uneasy.After a few more days of hard work, Mrs. Wang said that she had recovered from her illness, and hurriedly came to Jia's mother to ask for help, hoping to regain her job.Instead of answering her own questions, Jia Mu said that she had worked too hard on weekdays, and that she should take good care of herself when she fell ill, and that she should not worry about family matters, and even invited the imperial physician to come for a follow-up visit.It's just that the imperial doctor just said that he had worked too much and became sick from overwork, and he should take some time to recuperate, otherwise it would affect his children and so on.After Madam Wang heard this, she felt even more anxious and fearful. Counting the days, this eldest wife is about to give birth. After this birth, according to the current development, it won't be long before Mrs. Zhang will let Mrs. Zhang be in charge of the house again.At that time, the first house and one family will live in the main hall, and Mrs. Zhang will take care of the house, so who will pay attention to a second wife.At this time, Mrs. Wang was a little annoyed that she had acted too recklessly back then. It was originally a sharp weapon for her, but she let herself throw it away so easily. It really shouldn't be.So Mrs. Wang had no choice but to be diligent every day, hoping that Jia's mother would remember her good things in the past and let herself be in charge of the family again.

It's a pity that Shi Fei'er already knew what Wang was thinking, and she was worried about how to get the second wife to hand over the housekeeping power willingly.But in the end, I still have to thank Mrs. Wang for pretending to be sick, otherwise how would I know the current economic situation of Jia's mansion.

Although the Jia family has a great business, the expenses are even more serious.Think about it too, how can you not spend money on this up and down, inside and out?What you can see and what you can't see are all charges.What's more, there is a group of vampire minions who are filling their pockets and bullying others.The account book she copied for Bailu was only the expenses of her own room for three months, but this time it was no longer a running account, but the receipt and payment accounting method in the current double-entry bookkeeping.The key to this accounting of receipts and payments is: if there is a receipt, there must be a payment, and the receipt and payment must be equal.But the account books returned by Bailu were not flat, not because of Bailu's carelessness, but because some accounts were fundamentally problematic.You can't see it in the running account, but it's obvious in the double-entry bookkeeping.Moreover, the biggest advantage of double-entry bookkeeping is that it can reflect the ins and outs of the funds. Looking at it this way, it is clear where the Jia family's money has gone.

This Egret is also a careful person, probably because of the way he did the accounting, he made a general account without a teacher, so that it is more clear, and it is clear how much each item costs. It's clear.The more Shi Fei'er looked at it, the more angry she became. No wonder the Jia family fell down so quickly. If it goes on like this, it is inevitable that they will not be able to eat their own food.The master of the house didn't know how to be frugal, so he didn't mention it first, and the servants thought of various ways to make money, which also opened Shi Fei'er's eyes.Just take Jiamu's small kitchen as an example, the cost of eggs is 100 taels of silver a month.Shi Feier wanted to see if the chicken that laid the eggs was the golden chicken that was eating ginseng.

Shi Fei'er remembered that Grandma Liu got 20 taels of silver when she first entered Jia's mansion, which was enough for their family to live well for a year.Although this 100 taels is not a large amount for the Jia family, it is definitely enough to buy eggs and build a house with eggs.If it goes on like this, I can't complain that Wang Xifeng was lured by Mrs. Wang to engage in loan sharking later on.

These servants are indeed courageous, and the methods of greedy for money are naturally getting higher and higher, and there are more and more tricks.Shi Feier compared the two account books and found that such things were too numerous to enumerate.No matter whether Mrs. Wang is in charge, or Mrs. Zhang, who I thought was good before, I was deceived equally.Shi Fei'er didn't think it was strange, this must be the case for a young lady who was raised in a big family, and she had never been out of the door, so how could she know the real price of this chai, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea.It's just that the servant bought it, paid the bill, and he knew it.But whether the servants have falsely reported the price or said the quantity is too much, and there is no one to supervise, besides, the big housekeeper is greedy in the first place, you can check who.Besides, the two wives have no selfish intentions, and I don't believe it. If they want to make money from it, there is nowhere to check.As a result, Shi Fei'er feels that this house is not as good as her own. Even if it is to be handed over to Mrs. Zhang in the future, she must have a good discussion with her.

Shi Fei'er remembered that she had promised the old lady of the Lin family to take Jia Min out more, to walk around, to relax, and not to be bored at home all the time.Thinking that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, she asked someone to post a post to invite Jia Min to enjoy the chrysanthemums. Firstly, the chrysanthemums were really good, and secondly, it also comforted her loneliness that she could not be with her mother and her husband during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Jia Min came here happily after receiving the post. At this time, the fetus was more than three months old, but it was stable. Mrs. Lin was also happy to let Jia Min come out and walk around.Mrs. Wang can play with the chrysanthemums that she never thought she would take to flatter her, but the old lady invited Jia Min to appreciate it. She hoped to use this to win the old lady's favor. Who would have thought that if she didn't win the favor, it would add to her anger .

Shi Fei'er and Jia Min admired the flowers for a while, Jia Min took out a brocade box and handed it to Jia Mu, and asked, "Mother, let's see if this is the case." Shi Fei'er opened the box, and there were engraved jade and gold inside. Lock.Shi Feier took a closer look and nodded, then put away the things.It just so happened that Jia Hu happily came to find Jia Mu and begged Jia Mu to tell him a story.Shi Fei'er said one thing, but Jia Hu didn't feel satisfied after listening to it, so she asked Jia's mother to talk about it again.Shi Feier agreed with a smile, but asked him to play for a while and eat some snacks before talking about it. Jia Hu is very well-behaved on weekdays, and after he agreed, he went to play by himself.It happened that Mrs. Zhang was very bored in the house, thinking that Jia Hu hadn't returned for a long time, and she must be begging for a story from Jia Mu's side again, so she brought over Jia Mu and Jia Hu's usual favorite snacks.

The eldest wife hasn't seen Jia Min for a long time, and the two of them are usually very close. Now that Jia Min and herself are pregnant together, they have a lot to say.Seeing that the two of them were chatting happily, Shi Fei'er rarely took a break, so she also let them go.After eating two pieces of snacks, I remembered that Jia Hu had gone out to play for a long time. I don't know where he is now, but this child usually likes fishing, and nine times out of ten he went fishing by the lake again.Thinking of this, Shi Fei'er got up, intending to search for it, and told the child the story, or else he didn't know how long the child would pester him when he came back.Besides, Jia Min and Mrs. Zhang are about the same age and talk, and they are both pregnant, so they can communicate more. They are more comfortable when their elders are away.

I left my house and walked into the garden. Halfway through the journey, suddenly a little maid came running towards me in a hurry. Maybe because I ran too fast, I didn't have time to stop when I saw Jiamu, if it wasn't for the maids around me , grabbed it, and almost knocked Shi Feier down directly.

Shi Fei'er was startled in her heart, although there were many servants in Jia's mansion, the rules of behavior were quite strict, and she had never seen such a panic.Hongxuan, the eldest maid beside Jia Mu, held the little girl back.Seeing this, Bai Lu hurriedly helped Jia Mu, while scolding the little maid for being unruly.But when the little girl saw clearly that it was Jia Mu she bumped into, she knelt down at Jia Mu's feet with a "plop", crying, "Old lady, old lady, brother Hu fell into the water."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.Shi Feier grabbed the little maid's wrist and asked sharply, "What? What did you say?"

The little maid was clutched by Shi Feier, crying and saying: "Brother Hu fell into the water, now, now I'm afraid I've already held my breath!"

Shi Feier hurriedly pulled the little girl up from the ground, threw off the maid Bailu who was supporting her, and said, "Take me there quickly, quick!" After speaking, she moved forward, and the little girl cried and was pulled by Shi Feier. He is busy leading the way.

At this time, Shi Fei'er was very anxious, and secretly prayed that no accident would happen, she wished that her current body could be ten or twenty years younger, and she ran to the accident site in a few steps.

Shi Fei'er and his team rushed to the lake, and saw a group of maids kneeling on the ground crying together, Brother Hu's nanny hugged Jia Hu and wept bitterly, and seeing Jia's mother arrived, she cried even more. Kneeling and walking a few steps, said, "Old lady, old lady..."

At this time, Shi Feier didn't have the heart to listen to these people anymore, she ran to the front in a few steps, tore away Jia Hu's nanny, and hugged her in her arms. Closed, there is no outlet and no intake.Shi Feier didn't care too much, and hurriedly put the person flat and knelt on the ground.Stretching out his hand to touch Jia Hu's neck, the pulse seemed to be gone.
