Seeing Wang Xifeng's pale face, he said,
Ping 'er's breathing also became heavier.
Jia Cong waved his hand and smiled.
"Second Sister-in-law, I'm not investigating you, nor am I targeting you.”
"The Jinyiwei is in charge of supervising the officials. Would you believe that there is not a single spy in this residence?”
Wang Xifeng was stunned.
Then, his eyes became more and more fearful.
I didn't think about these things before.
Now, Jia Cong suddenly pointed it out.
He could barely stand still.
Jia Cong and Ping 'er helped her sit down and comforted her,"
"I will go and check the case files after I arrive at the Zhenfu Division. If there are some small matters, it's fine.”
"But in the future, Second Sister-in-law must not give out interest money, and also do not interfere in the lawsuits outside.”
"I might even bring the Embroidered Uniform Guards with me to sweep away those insensible people in the periphery!”
"Second Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. At most, two months. I'll leave Second Sister-in-law a living.”
"As long as you don't have any evidence against me and it's your own money, it doesn't matter how you spend it.”
Only then did Wang Xifeng come back to her senses.
He looked at Jia Cong seriously, gritted his teeth, and asked curiously,"
"How did Brother Cong know about this? Only Ping Er knows.”
"Hahaha, Second Sister-in-law, Sister Ping Er is the only one who knows about it.”
Hearing Jia Cong's words,
Wang Xifeng no longer held any hope.
Instead, he said repeatedly,
"There must have been no mistakes in the past. Even the interest was not the highest.”
"Although I did some things in the name of the old master, no one died.”
"Since Brother Cong has said so, we won't do these things anymore.”
"But what business is Brother Cong talking about? Is it really more profitable than giving out interest?"
Jia Cong laughed and nodded.
"Second Sister-in-law, since you said that I'm smart, I won't beat around the bush when I talk to you.”
"You know the Jia family's current situation better than me. The marks collected every year barely support this family.”
"Why did Second Mistress hand the butler over to you? It seemed like she had power in her hands, but Second Sister-in-law had been scolded a lot over the years, right?”
"Not to mention Old Lady and Second Lady, even those old maids and maids behind my back, would they talk behind my back?”
"Second Sister-in-law put in a lot of effort and has to pay out of her own pocket. It's not easy to always endure like this, right?”
Wang Xifeng sighed.
The butler had indeed been impressive all these years, but there was a limit to his might.
He could not offend the servants of Grandmother Jia, the First Mistress, and the Second Mistress.
The remaining sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law could not be offended.
Sometimes, they had to take out money from their dowry to subsidize.
Otherwise, why would she give out interest?
Every time something went wrong with the First Master and her husband Jia Lian,
Wang Xifeng had to pay for it out of her own pocket.
Just like that, they still thought they had gotten a lot out of the public.
Get my ass!
Every year, there was basically not much left of the silver that was sent to the public, repaired the residence, and spent in the residence!
"Brother Cong, I won't hide it from you. In the past two years, Liaodong Manor has been in trouble every year.”
"The income of the other villages is also decreasing. Those shops are still losing money!”
"Old Lady only cares about enjoying it, Second Lady only cares about being a good person, and only I am the bad person.”
"If Brother Cong really has some business to make a living and can subsidize Second Sister-in-law, that would be great!”
"If anything happens at home, Second Sister-in-law can also help!”
Jia Cong smiled happily this time.
But he also sighed.
After searching the Jia family, he finally found a woman to partner with.
It had to be said that it was a sad thing…
"Second Sister-in-law, don't worry. It will be built in two months at most.”
"As for what kind of business it is, I'm not in a hurry to say it. When the time comes, I'll let you see it so that you can rest assured.”
"With a thousand taels of silver invested, I'll give you ten thousand at the end of the year!”
"But you don't have to take the money. Just deduct it from the bottom line at the end of the year.”
When he heard the guaranteed price of 10,000 taels,
Wang Xifeng's eyes widened!
Why was he greedy for money?
Wasn't it because Jia Lian was unreliable?!
She thought that with some money, she would not be left without a home to rely on.
"Brother Cong, if you really have such a business, Second Sister-in-law will be your soldier in the future!”
"Hahaha, Second Sister-in-law is wrong. Our uncle and sister-in-law are not outsiders.”
Wang Xifeng's beautiful eyes turned.
Zhan Yi smiled and said,
"Don't worry, I'll go and mediate with First Master and Second Mistress.”
"In that case, thank you, Second Sister-in-law!”
Wang Xifeng was really relieved.
She was certain that Jia Cong would not lie to her. The ten thousand taels at the end of the year would definitely be accurate.
In that case,
With money and an ally, why not?!
On the other side, there were only two dim lights in Li Wan's small courtyard.
Hearing Jia Lan's voice coming from the courtyard, he quickly ran out and rebuked,
"What took you so long? I haven't learned what I should learn today."
"Are you drunk? Stir-fried beans! How dare you let Brother Lan drink!"
Suyun saw that Li Wan was angry.
It was as if he was going up to teach a lesson to the fried beans.
Unexpectedly, Jia Lan stood in front of the stir-fried beans and said loudly,"
"Third Uncle said that I shouldn't be so tired at my age. That's just studying.”
"A scholar should be clear-minded and rational! Cultivate the righteousness of the pine trees, imitate the strength of the bamboo and plum trees!”
"You shouldn't just sit in a circle and read every day. Otherwise, you'll only be teaching a weak and sickly person.”
"Third Uncle also said that a person, especially a man, should have a backbone and be responsible!”
"Even if it's a servant girl by her side, she still needs a man to protect her. I took the initiative to drink fruit wine today.”
"Fried Bean was not by my side at that time and did not know about this matter. If Mother wants to punish you, then punish me!”
Looking at Jia Lan, who was suddenly full of righteousness and energy,
Li Wan suddenly froze on the spot.
Under the bright moon, Li Wan was stunned.
