Chapter 22
After the carriage passed through the gate, Calamus dared to speak: "Girl today, why..."

Jiang Fusang turned his face and looked at her with a smile: "Why did you bring you today instead of Jiao Xing?"

Calamus nodded hesitantly.

In fact, what she really wanted to ask was far more than that.

When the girl entered the Changqiu Palace, she was the Seventh Lady, so she vaguely guessed something.

Jiang Fusang also confirmed her guess: "That's right, Calamus, I will marry and go to Chongzhou soon."

Calamus stared wide-eyed: "How can Mrs. Luo do this?!"

Jiang Fosang motioned her to whisper, and at the same time, he stretched out his hands to show her, his fingers were slender and smooth like cutting onion roots.

"The ten fingers are still long and short, not to mention that mine hasn't grown on my aunt's hand yet."

It doesn't matter whether it's sweet or bitter.

Calamus was very anxious, and said in a low voice: "Ms. Luo is the best at deceiving people. Girls always love Seventh Lady, but the pain is not so painful! I heard that the north is not a place for people to stay. How can you suffer that?" ? Let's go back and talk to Mrs. Luo..."

She didn't know the complexity of the situation, she just thought that it was because of Luo's persecution, or because Jiang Fusang felt sorry for his cousin and took the initiative to marry her.

Jiang Fosang shook his head: "At this point, it's not up to my aunt to decide whether to go or not. It doesn't count if I say it."

"This, how can this be done?"

Calamus is like an ant on a hot pot, but she is clumsy with her tongue, not to mention her ideas, not even a word of comfort.

It would be great if Jiao Xing was here, Calamus thought.

"Let me ask you." Jiang Fusang looked at her with his chin resting on his back, "It is a foregone conclusion that I will go to Chongzhou, are you willing to follow me?"

Calamus did not hesitate: "Where the girl goes, the slave will go!"

Jiang Fusang smiled, with mixed feelings: "Silly girl, you are helping to count the money after being sold. We know that you entered Miyagi with me today, even if you can't think about it, you can't."

Calamus doesn't understand.

Jiang Fosang didn't go into details, but only told her not to mention this matter to anyone.

"Even sister Jiao Xing can't?"

"No."

Calamus was stunned.

Recently, she often feels flattered, because the female monarch has begun to rely on herself as much as she relies on Jiao Xing.

Sometimes she even felt that what the queen ordered her to do was far more important than what she ordered Jiao Xing to do.

For example, the day of Yongning Temple, and today.

But she couldn't figure it out, why?

Thinking about it, she didn't do much.

If it is said that Jiao Xing made a mistake, it doesn't seem like it.The female gentleman treats her as before, and takes her with her wherever she goes.

"Then..." Calamus asked again, "Will Jiao Xing go with us?"

Jiang Fosang shook his head, his expression turned calm: "She has her own place."
-
Luo Shi waited in the courtyard for a long time, when she saw her come back, she hastily pulled her into the inner room.

"How is it?"

Jiang Fosang brushed her hand away, knelt down on the mat in a slow manner, and poured tea by himself.

After finishing a cup of tea, I just raised my eyes: "Auntie is in a hurry?"

How could Luo Shi not be in a hurry!She was deeply afraid that another misfortune would happen again, she would have long nights and dreams, and wished she could marry Jiang Fosang tomorrow.

"Does Your Highness have any instructions?"

Jiang Fosang looked indifferent: "If Auntie is free, make preparations as soon as possible. The auspicious day will be at the beginning of next month."

Luo Shi slammed his palm, this is a sure thing!

She couldn't help but beam with joy: "Alright, alright, my aunt will definitely make preparations and take care of your grand wedding that day!"

Jiang Fosang sneered: "I've been married once, does my aunt still feel fresh?"

Luo said awkwardly, "That time doesn't count, that time doesn't count."

Now Jiang Fosang is her and Foyin's lifesaver, so naturally she has to hold her in respect.Even if you do it yourself?Luo Shi has a kung fu of being able to bend and stretch.

"You rest first, Auntie..."

"Auntie, don't worry." Jiang Fosang put down the teacup and smiled at Luo Shi.

Luo got up halfway, then knelt and sat back down again.A chill ran down his spine, and he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"Going to Chongzhou this time is not the same as entering the Xu family before. My aunt should give me back what my grandfather left me, right?"

"What, what?"

Luo's face was stiff, and when he rolled his eyes, he immediately poured out bitter water.

"You were still young when you fled, so you don't know how much the family lost! Those precious jades, gold, silver, pearls and emeralds all fell into the river like mud cows... Later, you came to Jingling, and there was only a little money left, and it was difficult to make a fortune. Shorter than your juniors in food and clothing, you don't know that you feel sad inside. These years, my aunt has struggled to support the family, worrying like a torment..."

Seeing that Jiang Fosang didn't answer, Luo could only endure the embarrassment, and continued to sing the trick.

"When your grandfather passed away, she left a dowry for you and Foyin each from her private property, plus the share from her father-in-law, and what your mother left to you...these are all there. You can look it up in the book. Liu Niang, Aunt has never done anything wrong!"

Jiang Fosang turned a deaf ear to her swearing to God, and calculated the total account for her.

"Most of the dowry from my grandfather went away when my aunts got married in the early years, and I lost a lot when I left Luoyi in a hurry. After excluding the scattered ones on the Nandu Road, A Miao and I finally got 30 yuan each."

"My aunt said that the savings from the public office would be used to revitalize Jiangmen, and my cousins ​​have not yet married, so I only gave [-] yuan to the box."

"As for..." Jiang Fosang paused, "As for my mother's dowry, even though it was robbed by water bandits when crossing the river, there is still more than [-] yuan left over."

"In the end, my grandparents thought I was lonely and helpless, so when I was seven years old, I bought Jiaming Garden outside the city and planted [-] acres of solitary shake trees. The solitary shake trees are strong and straight, and can be used as rafters in three years. It can be used as rafters in one year, and can be used as pillars in ten years. The [-] acres are planted in three years, [-] acres are planted every year, and [-] acres are cut and sold every year. The income is at least more than [-] yuan. This is still only the case of cutting and selling strips, firewood, buildings and rafters are not the case.”

"Oh, that's right. Nanshan seems to have a hectare of elm trees that belong to me, and the annual harvest is about 30 bolts of silk. I can get [-] bundles of light firewood a year, and the selling price is [-] Wen; wooden utensils and objects, Its profit is ten times that of firewood, and the annual income is less than [-] yuan; the rest, such as pods and leaves, the profit is not yet known..."

Jiang Fosang pointed out that Luo's forehead was dripping with sweat.

This niece has never been in charge of a family, and like Foyin, she rarely gets involved in worldly affairs. When she was in her boudoir, she either read books or painted paintings.
Jiang Fusang met Shang Luo's vacant gaze, and slightly curled his lips: "Auntie, tell me, when I married Xu, how much did my aunt give me in total?"

It's not that she is ignorant of common affairs, her grandparents and wet nurse taught her in private.It's just that everything was for Jiang before, and he didn't want to care too much about it.

But now, it's her duty, not a single penny is missing.

Luo Shi swallowed a bit, and said dryly: "The Jiaming Garden is considered a public place..."

"Aunt." Jiang Fusang interrupted in a deep voice, "It sounds nice to say that it is Gongzhong, but you and I both know that our branch is only your third wife."

Luo's face became hot: "Then, in the future, the Jiang family will indeed rely on Fochang and Fochang's two brothers..."

"Let's leave it to the future to talk about the future."

Jiang Fosang got up and walked around the screen, and after a while, he walked out holding a land deed and a silk book.

"Grandfather was afraid that someone would not accept her account after she left, so she left a will and handed over the deed to me for safekeeping."

Luo's face suddenly changed.

No wonder she couldn't find it everywhere, it was indeed in Jiang Fosang's hands.

He sneered at the moment: "My aunt is so biased!"

 [According to the setting, more than 50 yuan is considered a wealthy family in Jiangnan.Our heroine is also quite rich, but it is far from enough compared to those high-ranking ones]
