Concubine Raiders Chapter 362: Winter (Chinese)


Chapter 362 Over the Winter (Middle)

In her spare time, Mrs. Gan talked to Eleven Niang about this matter: "...I have to admire the Li family's ability to go to camp. With his son, a small family of five thousand households, he actually married Princess Ancheng. !"

At this time, Xipu has opened its doors, and it is catching up with the season of "If you have money but you have no money, marry a wife for the New Year." The embroidery in their shop has novel styles, good quality, and reasonable prices, which attracted many people and soon became famous in Yanjing. Whether it was Eleven Niang, Master Jian or Mrs. Gan, they were very satisfied with this start.

Eleven Niang came to see Mrs. Gan this time, just to show Mrs. Gan the accounts in the shop.

"Young people are the rising sun, and the future is boundless." She implicitly said, "It's no wonder Princess Ancheng watched her heart."

Mrs. Gan laughed as she listened: "But, speaking of it, these two families are right in line."

Mrs. Gan is referring to Princess Ancheng’s husband and not an Ansheng person, right?

In the early years, I was impeached by Yu Shi for selling illegal salt and was lame by a forty board. In the past few years, I heard that I have raised a group of idle gangs with government debt. Now that the sea ban has been imposed, Fujian is the target of public criticism. I am afraid that the consort has his own small plan.

However, this is someone else’s family affair after all, and it is not easy for Eleven to comment.

The discussion behind the length of people is not the work of a gentleman. Gan Taifu said something shallow and profound. He clicked until he clicked. He talked about Xipu's business with Eleven Niang: "In this way, we still made six taels of silver this year?"

Eleven Niang nodded with a smile: "If you don't count the rent of your shop, you do make six taels of silver, but if you count the rent of your shop, you lose sixty taels of silver."

Mrs. Gan is puzzled.

Eleven mothers settled the accounts and told her: "Your shop, the rent for a year is 800 taels, divided by twelve months, it is about 66 taels a month. Now we have made 60 taels of silver. , If you count the rent of the shop, wouldn’t it be a loss of sixty taels!"

"Oh!" Mrs. Gan said with a smile, "It's really complicated. No wonder people say that this business is not something everyone can do." Then he said, "But it's not bad to make six taels of silver! Our first time There is no loss in doing business!"

Eleven Niang nodded with a smile: "I'm here this time, I have two things to discuss with you. One is the time when the shop will be closed. Master Jian meant that he wanted to close on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, after the eighteenth of January. Open the door again. The second is a red envelope for the New Year. Although we did not make any money this year, we were short when we opened our business. Second, we were rushing into the business and the profit was very thin. But we could not deduct the guys in the shop. Prepare to give it to the shopkeeper Two silvers, two shopkeepers six taels of silver, little servants two taels of silver, embroidered red envelopes of five taels of silver for ladies. What do you think?"

"Many shops on East Street close on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month and open on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. Naturally we should do the same." Mrs. Gan said in a deep thought, "but, will the red envelopes of the big shopkeeper be less? The first-class stewards on the New Year are all twelve taels of silver. What's more, these people are coming to Master Jian. We are tight on our hands and it is not bad. I think we should give more!"

The big shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper in the shop are all old knowledge of Master Jian, and they are both old experts in the embroidery business.

"I have agreed with Master Jian. This year is a special case." Eleven Niang said, "From next year, in addition to wages, one-tenth of the profit of the shop will be used as the big shopkeeper, the second shopkeeper and the servants. One-tenth of the bonus for the embroidered women. Instead of giving more red envelopes, it’s better to let them find ways to do business."

"I'm afraid that the two shopkeepers think we are stingy." Mrs. Gan said with a smile, "I don't know much about these. But since you and Master Jian have agreed, it's up to you! Not to mention our advance It is said that I will not interfere in the shop."

That said, it's a three-person joint business after all. Some things still need to communicate with Mrs. Gan Tai!

Eleven Niang smiled and talked to her for a long time. Seeing that it was not early, she got up and left.

As soon as she walked in, Lu Yun told her: "San Ye sent someone from Shanyang to send the New Year's Etiquette!"

"Are you still sending Gan Laoquan?" Eleven Niang asked her with a smile, taking off her chestnut mink fur coat.

"It's still Gan Laoquan." Lvyun handed her leather jacket off to the little maid on the side, and served her to the clean room to dress and freshen up. "The Gan Laoquan family sees you not here, go to The lady kowtows."

Eleven Niang nodded, freshened up, and went to Mrs. Tai.

The lady rewarded Gan Laoquan for dinner in the east wing, and when she heard the eleven mother was coming, she hurriedly came out and knocked her head.

Eleven Niang rewarded her with two taels of silver and entered the wife's inner room.

"What? The account is over." Madam Tai was sitting on the kang, playing with some cloth tigers and small shoes with Mama Du, and he smiled and asked her to sit there.

Eleven Niang saluted Mrs. Tai and sat next to Mrs. Gan: "Mrs. Gan’s wife is a widow. After all, Master Jian is a craftsman. I had to run away." Then she smiled and watched her work in her hands. Exquisite cloth tiger, "Is this for the princess?"

Yesterday was the full moon gift of the princess. She had filial piety and did not participate. But the fireworks that lit up half of Yanjing City were enough to illustrate the lively scene last night.

The lady smiled and nodded: "The New Year is almost coming, find some gadgets to send to her." Then he pushed the cloth tiger and small shoes in front of her, "My eyes are not good now, you help Take a look!"

Eleven Niang rubbed the uppers, soles, and ties of the shoes with her hands to check their softness.

"The child is so beautiful." Madam Tai said of the princess. "It is printed in the same mold as the empress and empress. But the emperor said that he looks like him." , Hehe laughed. "Those servants and maids who saw it all said they were like the emperor and pleased the emperor. If it weren't for the slight illness of the empress dowager, the Hundred Days ceremony would also be done."

Not long after the princess's baptism, the empress dowager caught wind and cold, and the lady and others had visited the palace. It's more than half a month after all.

"Is the empress dowager's illness still not cured?" Eleven mother was a little surprised.

"It's not good!" Madame said, if she pointedly, "I went to visit the patient. Although I was still using medicine, I was full of breath in my speech, and it didn't matter if I thought about it."

Eleven mother laughed.

Mrs. Tai obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, so she immediately changed the subject and asked about Xu Siyu's coming back for the New Year: "...said that you can go to Tongzhou on the 16th of the twelfth lunar month. Has the house been cleaned up yet?"

"It's all packed." Eleven Niang didn't mention it any more, and followed Mrs. Tai's words. "Let Ji Ting's wife move some flowers and trees, all the beddings are changed, and the Qinxiang few have passed away early. . Would you like to come over and see tomorrow?"

"You just need to take care of it." The lady said with a smile, "I won't go over and watch."

A little maid came in and said: "Madam, Madam, the great uncle of Cangzhou is here to give the New Year gift!"

Mrs. Tai was very happy to hear, and urged the eleven mother: "Go and see!"

Eleven mother smiled and returned to her yard.

Lu Yun walked in with two shrewd and capable women.

I greeted the eleven mothers and said some auspicious words. One of the women laughed and said: "The slaves and maids also brought a pair of Liao brothers, for the second young master; a pair of kingfishers, for For the son of the world; a pair of oriole is for the fifth young master; a pair of parrots is for the eldest lady."

"Really interested!" Eleven Niang smiled and said a few polite words, and then each rewarded a dozen silvers and let Lvyun take it down for dinner. He ordered Yan Rong to go to the outer courtyard and send the things from the Shao family to everyone's house.

Yan Rong returned to her life, but whispered to her: "I heard the young man in the outer courtyard say that although the third master sent as many things as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, the quality is much different."

Eleven Niang was a little surprised.

Yan Rong hurriedly said: "Really, I've been to see it. The ducks sent by San Ye on the Mid-Autumn Festival are all greasy and fat, but they are very thin this time."

Eleven mothers laughed.

The gift list for the New Year's Eve will be delivered to Xu Lingyi, but it is the Fan Guan who is responsible for the exchange of gifts between the various provinces to store things in the warehouse. Like this kind of thing, I'm afraid that Manager Fan can't say anything!

"Don't say anything about this." Eleven Niang told Yan Rong, "Lest Master Hou's face looks bad."

"The servant girl got it!" Yan Rong said anxiously, "The servant girl didn't mention this!"

Eleven Niang asked about her errands: "Are all the things delivered by my aunt?"

"The second young master handed it to Qinxiang, the elder son handed it to Mama Du, the fifth young master handed it to Nanyong's wife, and the eldest lady handed it to Xiaoli."

Since Mrs. Tai's excuse that the weather is too hot and Xu Sizhen left in her room, she never mentioned Xu Sizhen’s setting up a separate hospital. Eleven Niang thought that Xu Siyu and others had passed ten. Those who lived in the outer courtyard at the age of 18 did not take the initiative to bring it up, so the matter was put on hold. The other people's things were given to the maid beside him, only to Xu Sichen, but Yan Rong gave it to Mother Du.

Eleven Niang nodded slightly, and said: "You are very careful in your work!"

Yan Rong was praised, his excited face was reddish, and he bent his knees and said: "The slave and maidservant just lived up to his wife's teaching."

Eleven mother smiled and sent her back.

Xu Sijie dragged a bird cage and ran in: "Mother, mother, look, the bird sent by the eldest brother-in-law!" Nan Yong's wife followed in apologetically: "Madam, the fifth young master must come... …"

Eleven mothers signaled that Nanyong's daughter-in-law shouldn't be nervous, smiled and took the bird cage and handed it to Nanyong's daughter-in-law: "The bird needs to be hung under the eaves, but you can't drag and run like you."

Xu Sijie nodded deeply and smiled: "Hang it under the eaves of his mother, it sings for her mother!"

"This is from the eldest brother-in-law!" Xi Niang smiled and hugged Xu Sijie~IndoMTL.com~ hung it under your roof and sang it to you. "

He twisted his body: "Sing to my mother!"

Give it to her!

Eleven mother kissed him on the cheek: "Mother is afraid of noise, so she hangs under the eaves of Brother Jie."

Xu Sijie didn't say anything.

After she settled down Xu Sijie and returned to the house, she saw the servant girl and wife standing far away under the eaves. Xu Lingyi and Xu Lingkuan were standing in the yard and whispering.

The two brothers stopped talking when they heard the movement.

"It's so late, and it's cold, why don't you enter the house?" Xi Niang smiled and greeted them.

We will rest tomorrow......o(n_n)o~
