Chapter 118 The roommate with twenty taels of silver
Jia Yun said to Qingwen: "I won't buy in your uncle and brother."
Qingwen's expression suddenly became filled with resentment.
Jia Yun said: "There are already two cooks in the kitchen of our house, and the rough girls will also help. There are enough people in the kitchen. Besides, your uncle and brother are a man, so the kitchen in our house will not be used."
convenient."
Qingwen felt that what Jia Yun said made sense, but her expression was still resentful.
Jia Yun added: "I can sympathize with your thoughts. You don't even remember your parents. You are just a relative. Now that you have come to the house, you naturally don't want to see this uncle and brother living outside again."
Qingwen said pitifully: "Please help me, Mr. Er."
Jia Yun said: "Let's do this. Your monthly money before was one tael of silver. I will increase your monthly money to two taels of silver. In this way, you can give one tael of silver to your uncle and brother every month."
"With this one tael of silver every month, at least he won't be hungry or cold. If he keeps up his good work and finds a job outside, his life will be better."
Qingwen's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Really?"
Jia Yun smiled: "Do you think the second master would lie to you about this kind of thing?"
Qingwen smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Mr. Er."
However, she suddenly thought of something, and she became shy with her generous temperament, lowered her head, and turned a little red: "Second Master, when I was staying at Aunt Lai's house, I heard that Aunt Lai's house
In the Rongguo Mansion, the two taels of silver are the monthly payment of the people in the house."
Jia Yun said: "You are in a special situation this time. The extra one tael of silver is for you to give to your uncle and brother. I am not treating you as someone in the room."
Qingwen shook her head and said: "That can't be done. The second master also saw it just now. When I came to your place, Zijuan was wary of me as if she were wary of a thief. Although Sister Xiren appears to be a good person, she is probably wary of me secretly.
.If I took the monthly payment of twenty taels of silver, I don’t know what they would do to me.”
Jia Yun said: "Well, let's do this. Your monthly money will not change, it will still be one tael of silver per month. In addition, you will come to me to receive a reward of one tael of silver every month."
Qingwen shook her head again: "That's not possible. Sister Xiren and Zijuan are here. I don't want to come to your yard often in the future, so as not to quarrel and fight with Zijuan again and make the second master angry."
Jia Yun couldn't laugh or cry: "What should we do?"
Qingwen thought for a moment and said, "How about this? Is it okay if the second master gives this money to his wife and asks her to reward me with one or two pieces of silver every month?"
Jia Yun nodded: "That's fine."
Qingwen smiled sweetly again: "Thank you, Mr. Er."
Jia Yun sighed in her heart: Oh, this Qingwen!
It is not difficult to see that he loves Qingwen, and this love is no less than his love for Xiren.
Not only because Qingwen was very beautiful, but also because in his previous life, when he watched the original novel and TV series, he was very moved when he saw the tragic death of Qingwen and felt that this maid was very pitiful.
Now that Qingwen has come to him, under his love and care, he can see this maid's sweet smile from time to time, and he feels a sense of accomplishment.
…
…
After Jia Yun opened her mansion, the monthly money of everyone in the mansion was set according to the standards of Rongguo mansion.
For example, Bu Wuniang's monthly money is twenty taels of silver, which is the same as Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang in Rongguo Mansion.
Xiren, as Jia Yun's maid, Qingwen's monthly salary is one tael of silver, the same as the highest-ranking maid in Rongguo Mansion.
Liu Wu'er is still young, and his monthly payment is a drop of copper coins.
After Qingwen came, the monthly payment was only one tael of silver.
In fact, it's not that small. In Jia Yun's house, the monthly payments for the maids such as Xiren, Zijuan, Qingwen, Liu Wuer, etc. are also equivalent to allowances. Food and clothing expenses are paid by the father-in-law, and there are daily rewards and some.
In addition to the New Year's money, Jia Yun also spends a lot of money every year to buy them daily outfits and headgear.
During the Chinese New Year two months ago, Jia Yun took out fifteen taels of gold, totaling more than twenty gold ingots, some in plum blossom style, some in begonia style, some in "ruyi pen ingots", and "eight ingots".
"Bao Lian Chun".
Xiren and Zijuan each received two gold taels. These two gold taels alone were worth fifteen taels of silver. What's more, Xiren and Zijuan also received silver taels as new year's money.
Although Qingwen has only been here for two months, not counting monthly money, the reward Bu Wuniang gave her is still a few taels of silver.
It can be said that although the annual income of these maids in Jia Yun's house is somewhat lower than that of the maids in Jia's house, it is not much worse.
After Jia Yun opens the house, the annual expenses of the house alone will be a huge amount!
Why did the Rongguo Mansion, which was so rich, become a money-losing mansion later in the original work?
There are four main reasons. First, it costs a lot to build the Grand View Garden. Second, it is extravagant and lustful. Third, the servants are too greedy. The fourth point is that the annual expenses are too high to make ends meet.
Since the construction of the Grand View Garden, the treatment of the maids in the Rongguo Mansion has not been as good as before. Once, even Xi Ren asked Ping'er why the monthly payment was not released.
The reason why Wang Xifeng later took the monthly money from the house to settle accounts was not only because she was greedy for money, but also because she wanted to make up for the deficit of Rongguo House and did not want to be thought by Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and others that she had neglected her duties in managing the inner house.
Jia Yun doesn't have to worry about the expenses of his house. His house is not big and there are not many people there. With his pencil sales and "Dragon and the Eight Parts", his annual income far exceeds the expenses of his house.
What's more, at the end of last year, he had already planned to implement the third method of making money...
In Jia Yun's opinion, this time he gave Qingwen a silver reward of one tael per month. Qingwen should give Wu Gui more than one tael per month, maybe several hundred copper coins, maybe two taels...
But Qingwen probably wouldn't give much. She was smart in this regard, otherwise she wouldn't have had so much property when she was kicked out of the house later in the book.
Wu Gui gets one tael of silver or even more from Qingwen every month. As long as he doesn't spend money arbitrarily, he won't be hungry and cold. If he keeps up his good work and finds a job outside, his life will be better.
Get better.
You know, before Jia Yun traveled through time, Bu Wuniang could not earn more than ten taels of silver a year doing needlework. Bu Wuniang and the original owner relied on this money to live.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jia Yun treated Wu Gui in this way, not only was she not cruel but tolerant, why?
Because in Jia Yun's view, although Wu Gui was a very incompetent, cowardly, timid, unkind and unjust bastard, he was not a very bad villain.
It was also because Jia Yun had dealt cruelly to Zijuan's mother and brother before. Although Zijuan did not blame him face to face, he knew that Zijuan would sometimes feel sad because of this. After all, they were her biological mother and brothers.
Even Bu Wuniang, although Bu Wuniang did not blame Jia Yun face to face since Bu Shiren was beheaded, sometimes she would feel sad because of it.
So this time Jia Yun was unwilling to be cruel to Wu Gui, the only relative Qingwen knew.
However, in order to prevent Wu Gui from entangled Qingwen in the future, Jia Yun asked Yu Zhu to go to Wu Gui with his soldiers, and warned and threatened Wu Gui that Wu Gui was not allowed to come to the house to entangle Qingwen in the future, and was not allowed to take the initiative to ask Qingwen for anything.
silver……
Wu Gui is cowardly, incompetent and timid. After such a warning and threat, he should not dare to do so. If he dares to do so, don't blame Jia Yun for being ruthless!
…
…
That morning, after Qingwen left Jia Yun's main courtyard, Xiren and Zicuckoo walked into the bright room together and came to Jia Yun.
Zijuan first apologized to Jia Yun: "Second Master, I was wrong about what happened just now. Second Master can scold or beat you if you want."
Jia Yun said: "There's no need to beat or scold you. It's just that you have to restrain your temper in the future. Xi Ren is right. Although the etiquette in our house is not as much as that in other houses, it is not something you can mess around with."
If word spreads about this, it will not only embarrass you, but it will also embarrass my wife and me."
"I also warned Qingwen just now, asking her to temper her temper in the future."
Zijuan said: "Yes, Second Master."
However, Zicuckoo couldn't help but ask: "Second Master, why did Qingwen come to you just now?"
Jia Yun: "..."
Xiren couldn't help but ask: "Second Master, can't you tell us?"
Jia Yun was about to tell the story, not wanting to lie for such a trivial matter. In his view, in life, it is inevitable to lie sometimes, but lying is really not a good thing, so try as little as possible.
Zijuan became resentful: "Second Master, she has only been here for two months, and the monthly payment is already two taels of silver? Has Second Master already determined the identity of the people in her room?"
Jia Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Didn't I say that it is not based on the monthly salary of the person in the room, but the extra one or two silver each month is rewarded to her, so that she can give it to her aunt and brother, her only relative."
Zicuckoo said: "That's almost the same as the monthly salary for the housemates, which she gets two taels of silver. Sister Xiren and I have been with you for so long, and we haven't seen you give us this kind of treatment."
Jia Yun looked at Xi Ren and found that Xi Ren's expression also turned resentful.
Jia Yun sighed in her heart: These women in the inner house are really sensitive and difficult to deal with when it comes to this kind of thing. No wonder there are so many house fights in wealthy families, and the palace fights in the palace are even more powerful!
After Jia Yun pondered for a while, she looked at Xi Ren and said, "Well, from now on, your monthly money will be raised to twenty taels of silver, and you will get the monthly money of the people in the room!"
When Xiren heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, his head lowered, and his face turned red.
This...this means that the identity of the person in her room has been determined!
Zicuckoo held back her embarrassment and asked, "Second Master, where am I?"
Jia Yun said: "In another year, I will let you get the monthly allowance of two taels of silver for the housekeeper!"
Zijuan was also pleasantly surprised. Although it was a year later than Xiren, she had confirmed the identity of the person in her future room!
Jia Yun looked at the two of them: "Although you took these two taels of silver monthly and decided to be the one who lives in my house, but your second master is still young and has to take the martial arts exam.
Those things will take another two or three years..."
Before she finished speaking, Zijuan hurriedly walked away, and Xiren followed suit.
Both of them thought of Jia Yun in their hearts.
Jia Yun looked at the backs of the two people running away with a smile on her lips.
