Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 195 The Chinese New Year is coming soon

After several experiments, the cement can finally be used in construction, and it is already mid-November at this time.

Seeing that the New Year is coming soon, as a Four Fujin, although most of the things are almost done with the help of the people around him, but there is still preparation for the New Year.

For example, handing out the silver rewards in person, in order to let everyone have a good year, Tong Cheng'er still has to distribute the silver rewards before the new year, because the whole year is busy, and it is always necessary to have a prosperous year.

Of course, Tong Cheng'er is only limited to some stewards in the mansion. After all, there are too many servants to clean the house in such a big Si Age's mansion.

Tong Cheng'er is generous, this year she earns a lot, so she gives a lot, which is nearly twice as much as in previous years.

Don't think that one time is not much. After Yinzhen can earn money, he is not a stingy person, and he is also very generous to the servants in the mansion. The servants in Si Age's mansion already rewarded more silver than those in other mansions. Now Tong Cheng'er It has nearly doubled, and it can't be more.

After all, you have to consider the mentality of the slaves in Beppu. If it is too outrageous, if it spreads, they might not all want to come to the fourth prince's mansion to do things.

It is said that if you have milk, you are a mother, and if you give a lot of money, Tong Cheng'er, the Sifu Jin, immediately won the favor of everyone in the house.

Of course, except for the few in the backyard, Tong Cheng'er only rewarded the servants in the mansion with more silver. As for the Li family, the Song family, the Wu family and others, she rewarded them with things.

For example, high-quality seasonal fabrics, seasonal clothes, and some unsalable porcelain and tea sets received that cannot be used up.

All in all, they are all good things, but there is one thing. Although these things are very valuable, they are not silver. They are very good for decoration.

Everyone in the house praised Fujin for his generosity.

Only a few parties were so angry that they couldn't help tearing up the veil.

They need some money now!

Song Yuerong was born as a court lady. In order to enter the backyard of the fourth elder brother, she spent all her wealth at the beginning, just for the sake of fighting.

Now the fight has been won, but it is too different from what she thought.

Although the fourth elder brother's house also has monthly silver for the concubine's room, as long as she doesn't want to be blind, the silver is not enough if she manages it a little bit.

Money is tight for her these days.

Li's and Wu's may be better, after all, their family background is much better than Song Yuerong's, but it's good, they entered the mansion as concubines, they didn't bring their dowry, and they didn't have much money.

They are all looking forward to the New Year's silver reward.

Who knew that the servants of Manfu got nearly double the silver reward, not counting the moon silver, what about them!The rewards are all good things, but for the three of them, they are somewhat accumulated.

The clothes are nice, but the fourth elder brother can't see them.

The furnishings in the room are beautiful, but the fourth elder brother can't see it!
Thousands of words, if the fourth elder brother doesn't come, they are pretty much the same whether they dress up or not, but the money is different. If you have money, you might be able to find out some news. It's better than eating and waiting to die now!
Tong Cheng'er didn't actually abuse them.

He even specially ordered people not to neglect them, as long as they don't go too far, they can eat and wear whatever they want, within the rules.

But this is not the life they want.

Tong Cheng'er is not out of kindness, but she is just afraid of gossip, after all, she is the only favorite, if it is rumored that she treats the concubines in the mansion harshly, her reputation will be ruined.

How many people are different, anyway, it doesn't cost much.

Although she has her own considerations, she is still puzzling.

Ruxue couldn't quite understand Tong Cheng'er's actions.

Ruxue: "You said why Fujin sent good things to those people in the backyard. If you want me to say, that is a waste of good things."

Ruxue doesn't like those women in the backyard.

Ru Lan looked at this, and was afraid that she would say something wrong, so she explained to her: "The left and right are just some extraneous things, even if they are not given to them, they will be dusted in the warehouse. If you give them to use, Fujin will be fine." Fame saves you from being talked about, and besides, let me see, those few people would like to let Fujin exchange all the things they sent for silver!"

Ruxue understood it first, and then asked curiously, "Why?"

Fujin sent people all the good things, which are very valuable!

"Why? They couldn't touch the things Fujin sent, and they had to offer them up. Naturally, they weren't happy."

"So this is ah!"

After the rewards were distributed, the construction of the academy started a year ago.

Tong Cheng'er didn't show up. After all, the academies are located in the fringes of the capital, and the academies require accommodation, so they are far away from Si Age's mansion. It's still very cold every time they come and go. Tong Cheng'er is impatient to run back and forth.

She is very clear about her position, she is the one who provides money and plans, at least the rest, let's talk about it later!At least not in winter.

Under the auspices of An Linyu, the construction of the academy began in an orderly manner, and the end of the new year was approaching in a blink of an eye.

Kangxi sealed the pen, heralding the end of the year.

As for the New Year's Eve dinner, Tong Cheng'er wanted to use it in the mansion with Yinzhen, but it was not allowed. As the prince's elder brother, he had to attend the New Year's Eve dinner.

The banquet in the palace was arranged by Concubine Tong, and it was at night, but both she and Yinzhen entered the palace during the day.

The two first went to Kangxi to ask for peace, and then they separated. Yinzhen went to the prince. According to the usual practice, the brothers would go there.

Tong Cheng'er went to the Yonghe Palace to pay her mother-in-law a new year's greetings.

Of course, when Wu Yapin met Tong Cheng'er, the result was self-evident. One knew that there were tigers in the mountain and preferred to go to the mountain, and the other was happy to be a "tiger".

It's Chinese New Year, originally Tong Cheng'er didn't want to be angry with her, but Wu Yapin wanted to find fault with her, and Wu Yapin's sky turned blue when she was angry.

Seeing this, Tong Cheng'er left quickly.

Because Wu Yapin hadn't lifted the ban yet, the reason Tong Cheng'er left was to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager.

Wu Yapin couldn't be angry, but she couldn't stop her. After all, the empress dowager was the biggest in the harem, even if she was only in name, but in the ancient times of filial piety, this was enough.

At least Wu Yapin didn't dare to say anything.

After coming out of Yonghe Palace, Tong Cheng'er couldn't help sighing, thinking, she finally came out, although she could make Wu Yapin feel embarrassed, but she didn't have the desire to abuse, she didn't want to argue with others in essence.

After sighing, he let out a sigh of relief, and then walked directly to the Compassion Palace.

I ran into Wu Fujin on the road, and Wu Fujin came over to say hello with a smile: "I met Sisao."

"Fifth brother and sister, please be polite."

"Fourth sister-in-law is also going to the Compassion Palace?"

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "Isn't it? It seems that the fifth sibling also wants to greet the emperor?"

Wu Fujin nodded: "Yes, before we came, our master told me to talk to the imperial mama more often, but I didn't expect the fourth sister-in-law to go there so early."

Tong Cheng'er understood that the fifth elder brother was raised by the queen mother and had deep feelings, so it was normal for Wu Fujin to be with the queen mother.

The two walked together, and then arrived at the Compassion Palace.

There were already nuns guarding the door of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, seeing them coming so early, she hurried up to welcome them: "I have seen the four Fujin, I have seen the Five Fujin."

Tong Cheng'er: "Mama is polite, don't be too polite."

"Thank you two Fujins, the Empress Dowager is already waiting in the hall, she will be happy to see the two Fujins."
