Because they were generous and pleasing to the eye, Sun also pressed his anger and asked curiously: "What's your surname?"

The four of them looked at each other, and Qinglan answered, "We are all criminals and have taken away our surnames."

"After the offender, which of your father is the biggest?"

"I am the father of my family. He was once the Minister of Rites of the previous dynasty and an official of the third rank of Zhongzheng in the court." Qinglan said.

As the third rank, Sun said to Jinhua standing next to him: "I see that I have to go to your grandfather's grave next Qingming Festival. How big is the blue smoke that will make the slut bring the daughter of the third rank official to the mansion."

Jinhua listened ignorantly, and before she could answer, she heard someone chuckling. Sun saw that it was Miss Shixiang laughing, and couldn't help but frown.

Shi Xiang knelt down quickly and said, "Madam forgives the crime. I heard that my wife is so friendly and funny, and I forgot to collide with her for a moment."

Sun snorted coldly and said, "You are the one who climbed the bed a few days ago. I don't know how to get over the master. Now I'm dressing so silly. You don't think the collision is completely. I know that you are all given by the emperor, but the emperor may not be responsible for the family affairs of each family. Although I want to do it, my wife is also a person who knows how to behave and doesn't want to be scrupulous with a little girl like you. Let's do this, I see a pavilion in the garden that looks good. You just kneel in the pavilion for an hour every day until...the end of the first lunar month."

When Shi Xiang heard this, she changed her face. She thought that the wife from the countryside would see that they were given by the emperor and spared them. Who would have thought that Sun was not afraid. It would be hard to kneel down. Now she is still kneeling in the places where people come and go. These few months are the coldest time in Chang'an, how could she survive such hardship?

"Madam, I know my mistake."

"If you know your mistake, you have to punish yourself, so that you can have a memory. Okay, go and kneel down, just let others know that I am a cruel man. Don't think that I am a countryman and you can bully me." Sun said. She didn't think the punishment was too heavy. She had to be soaked in the pig cage when stealing people in the countryside. She asked her to kneel down very lightly. In the past, a man in the village stole neighbor's food, but he was also punished to kneel at the entrance of the ancestral hall for a month. He was laughed at by the people coming and going. There was no ancestral hall in the Cheng Mansion. This time, Sun came to Beijing and only brought his in-laws' tablets.

Cheng Dashan's family fled from other places to famine. His father died of illness after fleeing to Lijia Village. He was pulled by Cheng's mother. He heard that he had several uncles, but he heard about Cheng's mother's meaning, his uncle and aunt were not good people. If they hadn't robbed his family's rations while fled to famine, his father might not have been able to survive. Cheng Dashan was still young at that time and did not remember these people. Since Cheng's mother didn't want to mention them, he would not mention them, just pretending that his family has always been from Lijia Village.

Now his parents' tablets are in a room in the main courtyard. There are incense offerings every day, and there are tablets of the ancestors of the Cheng family, which also counts his wishes as a descendant of the Cheng family. Because this place is in the main courtyard, Sun did not want Shixiang to appear in the main courtyard, so he punished her to kneel in the pavilion.

Shixiang wanted to say again, the senior manager had ordered someone to drag her down.

"You guys go down too, don't come forward if you have nothing to do." Sun said, looking at Qinglan with concern for a few times, but didn't say anything after all.

The three of them lowered their heads and left the room nervously. Qinglan frowned slightly and grabbed the handkerchief in their hands. Could it be that the wife's eyes had seen something just now. She thought to herself and shook her head slightly. The wife had just come down from the countryside, so how could she know about that? She had to deal with the matter before others found out. She made up her mind and followed the others back to the yard.

When they walked away, the senior manager asked the people in the mansion to come in to see the ceremony first. Because there were not many people, Sun quickly finished meeting. Then the senior manager took Sun to the treasury and handed over a booklet.

"Madam, this is a list of the treasury entering and leaving the treasury. Please check it out."

Sun only took a look, closed the booklet and looked at the senior manager inquiringly.

"When the wife is convenient, you can take her confidant to the warehouse to take a look. Generally, there are warehouses in the house, as well as private warehouses of the wife and the lady. The keys in these warehouses are collected by themselves or handed over to the confidant to get things. In addition to the keys, others also need the wife's token when picking up things. The tokens in the house have not been prepared yet, so you have to trouble the wife to pick up a pattern slave first before finding a craftsman to do it."

"The pattern has not been decided yet?"

"I also asked the master before, and the master said he would let the wife come and make a decision."

This is keeping her work waiting for her to come. Sun pressed her brow and said meaningfully: "I think you have to make a booklet to keep your account in everything. You can settle the accounts later so that you won't miss it."

Gao Jin didn't understand what Sun said, and smiled faintly. He thought that he was like Zhuhua and the others silently lit wax for Cheng Dashan. After reading the treasury, the senior manager handed over several books, including those in the mansion, those in the farm, and those in the shop. Only then did Sun realize that Cheng Dashan had two shops under his name, and they were rented out now.

Sun couldn't understand the account book in the mansion, so he flipped a few pages and asked the senior manager: "Is there an account in the mansion?"

"Some are there, but it is best to get the accounts of the transactions together." The senior manager reminded.

Sun naturally knew this. She took the account book and sighed deeply, turned to look at her three daughters: "Next year, you can learn the housekeeper well, and leave the account book to you in the future."

"Don't worry, mom, I will definitely study hard." Yinhua patted her chest and said, Zhuhua nodded, and only Jinhua looked away with guilt.

She really wants to go up the mountain to hunt. If she really can't, she can go to other people's houses to kill pigs. It's better than reading the account book. She feels sleepy when she sees something with words and doesn't want to learn at all.

"Also, do you want to buy some more industries? If you rely on the income of a farm and two shops and the salary of the master, you may not be able to support the people of the mansion."

Can't afford to support it? Sun looked at the senior manager in confusion.

The senior manager immediately explained: "When there are too many servants in the family, these servants must have monthly money. Generally, they have to give them two clothes every quarter, and sometimes they have to give them rewards. That is the big deal. The Chinese New Year will be in a few months, and they will have to send them red envelopes. Everyone will get one, and each courtyard can send another one."

When Sun heard this, he felt that the rare treasures he saw in the booklet could not be guaranteed to be sent to the pawnshop one day, and he felt embarrassed at the moment.

"Or we should stop buying maids, we can do all the work at home." Yinhua said with a heartache.

"Miss Two, you must have a maid. If you go out, another lady will send a maid to ask first, would you still have to reply to that girl yourself?" the senior manager advised.

Why can't it work? The three sisters thought at the same time. Of course, Zhuhua knew that this was not possible, but she still sneered at the feudal society, making it so complicated to burn her own money. It's interesting.

"The senior manager knows where there is a suitable property nearby to buy it?" Sun asked. The money will only decrease and less at home. Only by buying a property can you get a long-term income. Sun also understands this principle.

The senior manager sighed and said with some embarrassment: "I have also recently gone to inquire about the prices of the industries in Beijing nowadays. I am afraid that I can't buy suitable industries for the time being."

It is estimated that the newly promoted grassroots officials have been buying property, which has increased the land prices in Chang'an. However, the good location is probably still in the hands of those nobles of aristocrats, and the emperor has a lot of them. He easily rewarded the house and the village. It would be great if such a reward could be received a few more times. Zhuhua thought to herself, and thought of the place where they were staying for a while, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Daqing Mansion."

"What's wrong with Daqing Mansion?" Sun asked in confusion.

The senior manager touched his beard and said in a melancholy: "The land price in that place is still affordable, not far from Chang'an. It would be nice if he bought a farm and sent someone who could trust to take care of it in the future."

"There are people. My cousin and my cousin who live in the east wing are people who can't stay idle. I also agreed to let them go to take care of the village. I just don't know what work is inside, and I'm afraid my cousin will not be able to do it for the time being."

"This is easy to deal with. You can ask your cousin to go to the mansion's village to study for a while. The mansion's village is a trustworthy person, and now it's winter and there is no living in the fields. The lady can tell him if you have any questions."

Sun nodded, feeling that something had finally been solved. He breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but look at Zhuhua, reaching out and touching her head, "You kid are thinking about everything again, don't think about it anymore."

Since Zhuhua had a fever on the road, the doctor said that she was too worried, they came over to tell her not to think about things as soon as they saw her thinking about things. She didn't even think about anything. She didn't know which direction to lean in her life plan, and she couldn't find the direction even if she wanted to use her brain.

The senior manager also glanced at Zhuhua and praised him in time: "Miss Three is really smart."

Zhuhua lowered her head and pretended to be shy, and she smiled helplessly with the corner of her mouth. This made the senior manager take a look. He thought that the family was full of a straight temper, but unexpectedly there was a person who was very thoughtful.
