Everyone looked at him in astonishment, not knowing what Zhan Yuanyuan, the daughter of the left prime minister, wanted to do.
Zhan Yuanyuan slowly stood up from her seat and smiled mockingly at Jiang Nai.
"Jiang Si, the people of your Haoyue Empire's Shawang City are suffering now and have been tempered by such severe natural disasters. You actually only donated a gilt water ripple bracelet?"
Mrs. Qiu looked at the daughter of the prime minister who came from a foreign country with a strange look on her face. She felt that this person's words were very funny and did not recognize the occasion.
The Queen Mother and the concubines did not comment much, saying that the Jiang family's donation had treated the people of Shawang City poorly.
Why is she, the daughter of a prime minister from a foreign country, talking nonsense in the main hall?
Let’s take a step back, what happened to the gilt water ripple bracelet?
In the past, the wives of the Duke's uncle's family, or the family members of first-rank officials, donated only about one thousand taels of jewelry.
The Jiang family belongs to the second-rank official family, so naturally speaking, the items donated by the previous ladies are slightly worse.
The market price of gilt water ripple bracelets is around seven to eight hundred taels.
What does it mean to donate only one?
Except for the mistress, the fifth and fifth girls of the Jiang family also donated money.
Together, the three of them donated at least 2,450 taels. How could they have treated the people of Shawang City badly?
The daughter of the Zuo Prime Minister of the Jin Empire spoke without reason, and the other ladies in the hall also glanced at her.
This is the rule of their Da Haoyue.
The amount donated by a single person from the Duke's uncle's house and the family members of first-grade officials is about one thousand taels to one thousand five hundred taels.
The family members of second- and third-grade officials generally range from 500 taels to 1,000 taels.
For officials and family members further down, the number will be reduced as appropriate.
Miss Jiang Si donated a bracelet worth seven or eight hundred taels. According to the rules of the Haoyue Empire, it was completely reasonable. She did not treat anyone poorly, nor did she slap anyone in the face.
The ladies looked at the daughter of the Zuo Prime Minister of the Jin Dynasty, and felt vaguely that this woman was not a good person.
However, most of the female relatives present were very well-educated, so no one raised any doubts first.
The Queen Mother smiled and smoothed things over and said, "The donation is just a token of appreciation. It doesn't matter if it's more or less. Miss Jiang Si can have such a considerate heart for the people of Shawang City. It's already very good."
Everyone nodded repeatedly and agreed very much with what the Queen Mother said.
The Queen Mother was already building a ladder for the daughter of the Zuo Prime Minister of the Jin Empire.
If this girl is smart enough and goes down the ladder, this matter will be revealed.
If people talked about this later, they would only laugh at most: People from the Jin Empire don't understand the etiquette and regulations of our Haoyue Empire at all, but they still talk nonsense in the main hall. They won't say anything else.
However, it is a pity that Zhan Yuanyuan is obviously unwilling to just go down the slope and gently expose the matter.
She turned around and saluted the Queen Mother, and her voice was neither high nor low but her words were clear: "The Queen Mother does not know something, this Miss Jiang Si is also very famous in our Beijing Academy."
Jiang Nianyan thought to herself, if the person who comes is not kind and kind, he will not come. This girl is obviously trying to cause trouble for her fourth sister.
She turned to look at her sister, and saw the little girl's confused expression. It was obvious that she didn't even know who the other party was.
Miss Jiang Wu couldn't help but be a little speechless.
