Chapter 670 Budget
But just as Butler Yan hinted, Yuan Wai Lu must express this matter.

Otherwise, Chu Qingge's grievance would have been in vain.

So in the end Lu Yuanwai promised that he would personally come forward and treat Chu Qingge as a justice to everyone in the Lu family.

Then Aunt Zhao was completely grounded.

Grounded in the true sense of the word!

Instead of just lowering her status and treatment like before, without actually supervising her.

Although Yuan Wai Lu has not done this yet, Chu Qingge has already made preparations for this to happen——

In other words, some of the things belonging to the people in the back house and the servants must be returned.

So the so-called value of tens of thousands taels from Butler Yan is naturally not that much.

"Aunt Jiang." Chu Qingge thought for a while, "After all, we are here as refugees. Our life cannot be compared to the life we ​​had in Chenyang County. We can get rid of many of the flashy furniture and just buy some necessities."

Aunt Jiang was a little uncomfortable when she heard that there was not much budget, but when she heard that Chu Qingge planned to return some jewelry, her expression became much better, but "Do I also have to return the servants' things?"

In Aunt Jiang's view, the practice of plundering servants' belongings, although some young people are too angry to be brought to the surface.

But after searching and plundering everything, it was still a sum of money. These servants were originally from the Lu family and had signed a deed of betrayal.

There were monthly cases in the past, but the owner was in good condition.

Now that the owner is in bad condition, they are merciful if he doesn't sell it, and they want their monthly savings back...

Why bother?
However, when Chu Qingge told Aunt Jiang that all the servants' belongings and money combined amounted to only 50 taels, Aunt Jiang stopped talking. These 50 taels were quite a lot for ordinary people.

But in the eyes of their masters, it really doesn't matter. For example, there may not be much left of the furniture she plans to buy now, a few soft couches, or the brocade screen she likes.

"And now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather is getting colder. In addition to furniture, we also need to buy a lot of cotton clothing, so that when winter comes, we will not have a winter coat at home." Jingzhou is located in the north.

Winter is naturally colder than Chenyang County in the southwest.

"In addition to winter clothes, we also need to consider the purchase of silver charcoal, and we must start purchasing reserves now."

Therefore, in terms of furniture, it is natural to save as much as possible, and all useless decorations must be removed.

After hearing Chu Qingge's analysis, Aunt Jiang calmed down and realized that Chu Qingge asked her to do this, which was really a real test.

If I buy too much, I will be unhappy, and my master will be dissatisfied. But if I buy too much, my family will not have enough money.

It's really not an easy life...

Aunt Jiang wanted to give up, but if she thought about it carefully, if she gave up now, Chu Qingge might not consider her again when she was looking for help in the future, so after hesitation, she nodded.

"Well, let me try first..." Aunt Jiang said, "Anyway, Butler Yan is traveling with us, right?"

Then she doesn't have to worry about being deceived by merchants...

"Yes, you go take a look first. If you are not sure, you can take a look first and then write it down in the book and do the math."

Chu Qingge said: "If there is an excess, just adjust it."

"alright."

Although Aunt Jiang came from a good family, she didn't like reading much when she was a child, and the education of this era didn't support women's learning, so she only knew a few words and couldn't write.
