    Minhou Mansion, Xiangcun Courtyard

    "Alas, that guy from Qilian is living a comfortable life now. Not only is he completely the master of the family, but he has also been allocated a large amount of money and assets. Now he can do whatever he wants, and he is no longer short of money!"

    Ning Jinzhong sat beside his wife's bed, sighed, and said with envy that his brother was finally no longer restricted by monthly money and could just go to the public treasury to withdraw as much as he wanted. But now he still succumbs to  His parents are still alive and have no private property. He dare not buy property by himself. Even if he buys property, he will have to put it in his wife's dowry. He lives on the monthly salary and lives a miserable life.

    ??If you have money, you don¡¯t dare to use it, let alone if you don¡¯t have money.

    "If you want money, just say it. Do you think you are talking in such a roundabout way? I didn't know you were asking for money from me. I've already spent all the money this month. You're so embarrassed. Damn it."  Use my dowry, my dowry will be lost to you sooner or later.

    Tell me, how much do you want?  "

    Mrs. Mao rolled her eyes at Ning Jinzhong, raised her hand and took the wooden box with the silver next to her and asked.

    Based on her understanding of her husband, every time he talks about money with her at the end of every month, no matter what the previous topic is, it will eventually revolve around borrowing money from her.

    This has become a habit.

    Fortunately, she has a large dowry and her monthly income is pretty good, otherwise she would really not be able to live and feed.

    ¡°Oh, my wife, that¡¯s what you said.

    Am I that kind of person?

    I just want to say that the sixteen concubines of the Qilian family have been divided, and I heard that each of them has been divided into no less than 20,000 yuan. How do you think their family got so much money? In the past, brother Qi Lian and  When we were together, I always acted very poor, and sometimes I even had to treat him to guests.

    ¡°Has he been pretending to be poor all these years?  "

    Ning Jinzhong¡¯s suspicion is justified. Anyone would think so when they hear that the brother who has shared the joys and sorrows with him is a rich man.

    ¡°Twenty thousand taels?

    Where did you hear that?  There are sixteen concubines in their family, each worth twenty thousand taels. The total of those sixteen is a total of 320,000 taels. In addition, except for the eldest son of Xijue, the other sons can only share 30% of the family property. How can that be true?  Didn¡¯t they say that their family¡¯s public treasury had over one million yuan in property?  "

    It is well known to everyone that the family property is divided only into the public treasury, and it is also well known that the money in the public treasury is often not as large as that of the matron of the house.

    So, how could Mao not be surprised?

    "I don't know about this, but each of their concubines was given five thousand taels of silver, a courtyard with two entrances to the capital, a shop, twenty hectares of farmland, plus some jewelry and antiques. This should be fine.  This is what Qi Lian said himself. Even without the jewelry and antiques, the total value of other things is more than 20,000 taels.

    It¡¯s incredible!

    ¡° Their family spent nearly 200,000 taels of cash when they married a wife and daughter. They didn¡¯t expect that they would still have such a rich family after so many years.

    You also know the situation of our family. I estimate that even one hundred thousand taels from our public treasury is not enough. They are both founding princes. How can the gap between our family and Qilian's family be so big?  "

    Since Qi Lian drunkenly revealed the specific figures to him, Ning Jinzhong naturally believed them. While talking, he also complained about his own family, complaining that his family was not as rich as Qi Lian.

    ¡°My husband, you are wrong.

    Our public treasury can't come up with one hundred thousand taels. Last year, there was a big disaster, and our fields failed to harvest anything. In order to prevent the farm laborers from starving to death, we even allocated two thousand taels to buy grain, so we had a net loss of thirty thousand taels last year.  For an extra two taels of silver, the losses in the fields cannot be made up in the second year, so this loss is considered a real loss and cannot be made up.

    Now, the public treasury probably can¡¯t even get out ten thousand taels of silver. Some time ago, I heard that the second son¡¯s family went to the old lady to ask for some things to pawn, so I gave up last month¡¯s monthly money.  Hand it on, the second son's family is really embarrassed. He has embezzled an unknown amount of money from the public treasury, and he has the nerve to ask the old lady for something to fill the loophole. Don't you know, our family can only afford the monthly income of the masters like us.  If it is paid out on time, those who work as maids will have to postpone their monthly money for half a month. What do you think the second son's family did for half a month?  "

    When talking about the latter part, Mao almost laughed sarcastically.

    "Is your family already so poor?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Half a month¡¯s monthly payment for the servant?

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????? What on earth does the second son¡¯s family want to do?  "

    Ning Jinzhong was a little shocked at this time. He never knew that heOur family is already in dire straits.

    Although he is the eldest son, his mother died in childbirth when giving birth to him. Now the old lady in the house is his stepmother, so after his father's death, the housekeeping power originally controlled by his wife was passed to his stepmother.  He tried every means to find a fault and deprived him of it, and gave it to his second brother's wife, that is, the wife of his stepmother and son.

    If it weren't for the fact that his father had hired him before his death, and he had been working diligently and not daring to make any mistakes, he might not still be the marquis now. But because of the emphasis on filial piety,  He couldn't force the separation of the family, so he could only aggrievedly allow his stepmother and stepbrother to still occupy his palace, without even having the power to be the master of the family and in charge of the family's public treasury money.  .

    So he really doesn¡¯t know the situation at home.

    "She was lending money, and the interest rate was very high. It could more than double in half a month. I don't know how many people were forced by her to sell their fields and houses, or even their sons and daughters. Then she changed hands and sold those houses and fields at a low price.  , so that other people¡¯s children bought them back at a low price and sold them at a high price. Just by going back and forth like this, she could earn thousands of taels a month.

    "Just listen to these words. I'm looking for evidence now. When I find all the evidence, I won't be named Mao unless I kill the second brother's family."  You should know how important this matter is, and the second person¡¯s loan shark is using your post. If I don¡¯t find all the evidence, once the news is accidentally leaked, we will be the unlucky ones, so these days  Don't go out drinking for a while. Just stay at home and wait for me to find all the evidence.  "

    Mao's eyebrows were dark, but there was a hint of smile and cruelty on her lips. Because she had been deprived of housekeeping rights over the years, when her best friend invited her out as a guest, she was too embarrassed to go out to attend those banquets, for fear of being betrayed by others.  She sneered, now that she had finally caught the fault of the second family, no matter how high the price was, she would still find ways to get the evidence.

    Without fighting over the steamed buns for air, without knocking down the second child's family and killing her, it was really hard for her to vent her anger and anger, which had been suppressed by her family for more than ten years, without being able to breathe and without dignity.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
