Chapter 12

Aunt Chen, who was crying, also lowered her voice. She paused, wiped her tears, and secretly looked at Gu Qingling's face, but she didn't dare to cry loudly anymore.

Also, although she got the deed of betrayal, the Yao family has not been divided yet. It really makes the old witch angry. What if her two sons are divided?

The important thing is not to divide it up, but to fear that the old witch will seize the property of her two sons and force her two sons to "cleanse themselves and leave the house."

It’s not like no one in history has done this to those evil aunts.

"Are you done?" Gu Qingling glanced at Mr. Yao and Aunt Chen coldly.

Second Master Yao was very conscious and knelt back honestly.

Aunt Chen also pretended to wipe her tears and said in a low voice: "That's it, if you have something to do, tell me, tell me."

"Huh!" Gu Qingling snorted coldly and glanced at the others, "What about you, do you have anything to say? If you want to say something, say it quickly. Don't wait until I open my mouth. I will rush to say it one by one."

No one said a word.

It’s not that Uncle Yao didn’t dare to say it, it’s just that he was a little cold-hearted towards his mother and didn’t want to get involved in Second Master Yao’s affairs.

Because he knows that as long as it involves Mr. Yao's affairs, his mother will always be "partial".

——Just watch, I’ll probably punish his second brother to kneel down in the Buddhist hall soon, and forget about it!

"Since no one has said anything, I will continue." Gu Qingling's eyes fell on Mrs. Yao and said, "My dear, how much money does the Viscount Mansion have on its account?"

Mrs. Yao didn't expect that she would be the first one to be named. She was stunned for a moment and said: "Back to the old lady, it's less than a thousand taels."

Later, she added two more words, "Silver."

"How come you only have such a small amount of money?" Mrs. Yao Er was surprised, "Sister-in-law, are you kidding me? We are a viscount's palace. We don't even have a few thousand taels of gold, but the silver is less than a thousand taels. Isn't that an exaggeration?"

"I didn't, I..." Before Dr. Yao could finish speaking, he was interrupted.

"What am I, madam, are you kidding me? Who are our Yao family? How can we still have a thousand taels of silver in our account, and it's still silver?" Aunt Chen also looked surprised and turned sideways.

He looked over and asked, "Where is our Yao family's money?"

"Sister-in-law, how long have you been a housekeeper and you actually swallowed up all the money of our Yao family?" Mr. Yao looked shocked. After saying this, he quickly turned to complain to Gu Qingling, "Mom, you saw it, right?

My wife has passed away a long time ago, and my sister-in-law is not a good person at all. Look, you have only been away from home for a short time, and how she has managed our Yao family... Even after my father died and our family was demoted, it became

Now that we are in the Viscount’s Mansion, it’s impossible that we don’t even have a thousand taels of silver in our account, right?”

Uncle Yao wanted to speak for Mrs. Yao, but he didn't know where to start. Because he didn't know how much money the Yao family had. After he inherited the Viscount House, his mother had been the head of the family, and later his wife.

Everything in the Yao family is always managed by women. When he goes out, he will not take care of the house's account books.

Gu Qingling slapped the table on the table: "Did I let the rest of you speak?"

A moment of silence.

But Second Master Yao was still a little aggrieved: "Mom, there is something wrong with the money in the account, but I can't let anyone ask."

Mrs. Yao was also aggrieved. She bit her lip and said, "Old lady, you know how much money the Yao family has in their account. When you handed over this family to me, this was the only money in your account."

…”

If she hadn't added some dowry later, let alone the one thousand taels of silver, even the five hundred taels might not have been saved.

It’s not until you become a family that you don’t know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive. After becoming a family, Mrs. Yao realized that there was nothing in the Yao family that didn’t cost money. Even eating an egg would cost more than ten cents, let alone an egg.

Three meals a day, daily expenses for each house and courtyard, the total added up is even more terrifying.

Uncle Yao's salary as a Viscount was simply not enough to support his family.

When Gu Qingling handed over the house to Mrs. Yao, she immediately packed up and left. Mrs. Yao had no doubts about it. But who made Gu Qingling an elder? Even if she suspected that Gu Qingling had misappropriated the Yao family's property, she

There is no evidence either.

Now that I am saying this, I just don’t want some people to throw dirty water on me.

If the old lady wants to "blame" her, she has no choice but to bite the bullet - there is no other way, who makes her unable to fill this hole because she has no money?

The handle has been given to people, so we can only accept it.

Just when Madam Yao thought she was about to be reprimanded, Gu Qingling said softly, "Well, you are right. When I handed over the Yao family to Madam Yao,

We indeed have less than a thousand taels of silver left in our Yao family's account."

"Ah, isn't it?" Mr. Yao was shocked, "How can you only have so little money? Mom, where is the other money? Where did the other money go?"

Mrs. Yao was surprised and looked at Gu Qingling involuntarily: No, the old lady actually...

At the same time, Uncle Yao looked at Mrs. Yao and felt distressed: he knew that his mother did not like his wife, but he did not expect that his mother would actually interfere with his wife in such a matter.

A mistress of a household with less than a thousand taels of silver in her account, then she...

"Where are you going? You have the nerve to ask?" Gu Qingling snorted coldly and said, "Since your grandfather passed away, how many of the men in the Yao family have serious jobs? Is it your father, you, or your eldest brother?

"

"Uh..." Mr. Yao froze, "But...but when my father was alive, we were still an Earl's Palace and enjoyed more than 700 households. Even my brother, wasn't he also a Viscount, enjoying 500 households?

Household food? If not, those fields, land, Zhuangzi, etc. left behind by our ancestors...if we add them up, it's quite a lot, right?"

The exact amount, Mr. Yao is not sure, but since he can remember, their Yao family has been heaping gold and jade, rich and poor, rich and noble, and prosperous. He has never seen his family worrying about money.

Overthinking.

Especially for himself, who is inlaid with gold and jade, enjoying a life of wealth and wealth, and does not have to worry about money at all.

So he really never thought that the Yao family might have no money.

"Hmph! You only see that the Yao family has a great business and great scenery, but you don't see what supports these scenery. Today I will calculate with you how much money the Yao family has." After Gu Qingling finished speaking, she directly

I called the accounting clerk over and asked them to take the abacus and do the calculations in front of everyone.

When the founder of the country was still alive, the Yao family was very prosperous. Even though it only had a thousand households, the founder of the country had a lot of private property, and the emperor would reward him from time to time. In addition, when the marquis married in, he had a fortune of thousands of miles.

, the Yao family can be said to be truly "a heap of gold and jade" and a "millions of wealth".

But no matter how rich you are, you can't stand someone "squandering it".

One, at that time, the Marquis's house was very large, and the number of servants needed was also very large, so the annual salary required was naturally a large sum of money; one, even though the Marquis and his wife were both rich people, they themselves

They are not particularly good at business, but they have enough money to spend on themselves, so they don't show much for a while; the other one, since he is the Marquis's Mansion, has an extremely large number of powerful people who interact with him, so he needs

Not to mention the human relations.
