    ¡°Old lady, what happened?

    Why are you selling these things?  "

    Butler Yu couldn't help but be surprised.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Why are the property suddenly about to be sold off? Is it possible that the second master came here today to ask for money?

    At this moment, Butler Yu had a lot of things in his mind, and he almost didn¡¯t write an article.

    ¡°Don¡¯t ask if it¡¯s not your business.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Bring a chair over here, and you take the people to take stock of the warehouse, I will watch from the side.

    When you order something, just remember to tell me its name so that I can decide whether to sell it or not.

    ? Okay, let¡¯s go.  "

    Qiao Mu really feels that there is no need to keep so many things at home. Some things may be stored in the warehouse for decades, and may not even be used when the house is raided. Therefore, why keep such useless things?

    It¡¯s better to sell it for money.

    It¡¯s just a dead thing at home.

    "You're too talkative, I'll go right away."

    With that said, Butler Yu hurried out of the warehouse, said hello, called all the servants in charge of the warehouse in, and began to take inventory of the warehouse.

    There were ten people in total. It was a little confusing at first when counting. Two people often overlapped when reporting the names of objects. However, after a few minutes of getting used to it, these servants figured out the rules and the cadence of their reporting became more and more ups and downs.

    There were almost no mistakes along the way.

    Qiao Mu listened carefully on the side and held up signs to report things she thought would be useful in the future.

    It means this thing is going to stay.

    As for those without signs, put them all aside and take them out to be pawned and sold later.

    Qiao Mu thinks most of the things are of no use, such as those golden toad ornaments, the statue of Guanyin giving birth to children, the jade sculpture of Maitreya Buddha, etc. Qiao Mu really doesn't like them, so the frequency of her actual holding up the signs is very low.  After counting everything inside, what was left in the end was just over two hundred fine antiques and treasures.

    ¡°Old madam, have all these been sold?¡±

    Butler Yu looked at the warehouse cabinet that had been emptied out of half of the warehouse, and couldn't help but asked in distress and surprise.

    ¡°It¡¯s all sold, but you don¡¯t need to sell it.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbmbOUT Out

    ?????????????????? It¡¯s getting dark, and people are probably arriving soon, so let¡¯s prepare for the dinner.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? pitching in. It¡¯s not appropriate to eat heavy oily or meaty meals at night. Just make me a bowl of clear soup and plain noodles.  "

    " Qiao Mu said, and slowly left the warehouse on crutches, preparing to go back to the bedroom to rest.

    The original person is already eighty-one this year. Although he is still in good health, he must pay attention to the maintenance of the trees. After being tired for most of the day, he cannot take a break.

    Jiangnan Zhizao Mansion Yamen

    This place occupies a huge area, and is next to the emperor's palace when he goes to Jiangnan. Therefore, the security here is much stronger than that of a normal yamen.

    At this time, Zhen Shijia just happened to send someone to re-count her private treasury. She had a little idea of ??her family property, but at the same time she felt very distressed.

    I feel so sad that these precious money will no longer be my own after a while, and it really breaks my heart.

    ¡°My lord, do you really want to listen to the old lady?

    What should we do with the Sixth Prince?  "

    The movement in the warehouse was quite big, and Zhen Shijia¡¯s staff naturally quickly understood the reason.

    "He asked with the same distress and worry.

    They have to send 100,000 taels of silver to the sixth prince every month as support. If they pay back all the 5 million taels of silver at once, they will not be able to succeed the prince unless they suck the bones out of some businessmen.  supply.

    It has been so long. If the confession is broken now, the six princes are opened, and it is really a bit of money, and it will be dead.

    ¡°The Sixth Prince¡¯s side is broken.

    My mother said that she would personally write to my daughter. Your Majesty is in good health now. I am afraid that he does not like the prince's struggle for power. The most urgent task at the moment is to repay the money from the treasury. What my mother said is still reasonable. If you do not repay the debt, the creditor  Even though I'm embarrassed to say it, I feel very uncomfortable.

    You send people to find ways to transport these things to various places in Jiangnan and sell them through special channels.

    You must keep it a secret, you know?

    I don¡¯t want to be embarrassed enough to sell off my property.It's known to everyone, and I don't want the news to be leaked before paying back the money. Do you understand?  "

    During the period when Zhen Shijia came back to take inventory of the warehouse, she was actually still thinking and hesitating in her heart. When she thought that so many things would no longer belong to her, she wanted to regret it on the spot, but because of this, she changed it a little bit.  After some thought, he could roughly guess some of the emperor's thoughts and possible thoughts.

    The hesitation in your heart naturally disappears instantly.

    After giving the instructions, he saw that it was already getting late, so he hurriedly took off his official uniform, put on his regular clothes, and rushed to his mother's residence, that is, Mrs. Feng Sheng's house. Even if there was no big event for the birthday, it was just a family gathering for a meal.  You can't be late for dinner.

    ¡°Otherwise, someone might say he is unfilial.

    ¡­¡­

    Feng Sheng Lady¡¯s Mansion

    Qiao Mu is sitting in the main seat, and her second son Zhen Shijia is sitting on the left. Apart from that, there is no one else, just the two of them and a table of food.

    At this time, not only Qiao Mu's face was a little gloomy, but Zhen Shijia's expression was also the same. Even if there were some things that were not notified in advance or the time was set in advance, it should not be impossible to remember.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? or even not coming.

    It¡¯s like this on my mother¡¯s birthday.

    Unfortunately¡­¡­

    ¡°There are not many children in this world who remember their mothers¡¯ birthdays, but there are very few mothers who forget their children¡¯s birthdays.

    Qiao Mu turned around and raised his eyebrows and asked:

    "You said you informed me?

    So, is it because they are unfilial and unwilling to come, or something else, or is it because I don¡¯t care about my birthday, so they won¡¯t come?  "

    ¡°Mom, maybe there¡¯s something going on.

    I remember that I sent someone to inform them that they would be back today. What is going on?  "

    Zhen Shijia was also a little confused. He had sent someone to notify his children and grandchildren half a month ago, as well as his third brother and sister-in-law's family.

    Why is it that it¡¯s already dark and no one has come yet.

    At this time, Butler Yu walked in, handed a large stack of gift orders to Qiao Mu, and whispered:

    "Old madam, although you said that this birthday will only be a family reunion, there are still many officials and wealthy businessmen who sent birthday gifts. After they gave the birthday gifts, they turned around and left, saying that it was appropriate.

    Look, what should we do with these things?  "

    These words almost added fuel to the fire.

    Officials, wealthy businessmen who were strangers to her all remembered her birthday and sent her some gifts. As a result, her direct son, grandson and great-grandson did not know to come.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? of sending a man over here, to deliver a letter, or something, but in the end there is no news at all, it is so silent.

    I don¡¯t know if I will come or not.

    I don¡¯t even know if I should continue to wait.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? I'm worried that if I can't come back later, I'll be even more angry.

    Don¡¯t make people angry and confused.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
