Chapter 234 From then on, we really don't owe each other
Since the dynasty has changed, the people of the world are naturally the people of Dongming.
Even the officials in the court, if they are left, will naturally be the ministers of Dongming, let alone the Xie family, a family where no one has served as an official in the court for twenty years?
"Or does Mrs. Yue have any objections to the handling of the Xie family? If you think so, you might as well ask someone to write a letter." Rong Ci looked coldly, "The people standing above the court today are all His Majesty's good ministers who govern and protect the country.
Everyone in this land of Dongming is the people of Dongming."
"Your Majesty trusts all officials and loves the people. If Mrs. Yue says this again, be careful someone writes a letter to accuse you of sowing discord."
Mrs. Yue had never seen such a battle before, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything.
Mrs. Xie said: "Ninth Young Master is right. Our Xie family are now His Majesty's ministers and the people of Dongming. If you have anything to hide, just write a letter to us. Why bother talking nonsense here?"
"This was your punishment just now, and you still refuse to change your ways. You just throw dirty water on our Xie family."
Mrs. Rong Guogong breathed a sigh of relief: "From the Yue family, His Majesty's order has been issued. Even if you beg me, it will be of no use. It is best to stay in peace and not cause any more trouble. Otherwise, there will be no consequences."
That’s all.”
"Go back home."
Mrs. Rong Guogong didn't want to pay attention to these people, so she turned around and got on the carriage. Rong Ci also walked up. When the two masters got on the carriage, the coachman drove forward, and the guard got on the horse and followed closely.
Mrs. Yue and others wanted to catch up, but they missed the target.
"The Duke's wife! The Duke's wife!"
"Mrs. the Duke——"
Mrs. Xie glanced at the people chasing the carriage, turned around and walked towards the mansion. As she walked, she said, "Close the door. The mansion is closed today to thank guests."
"Yes, ma'am."
Xie Yixiao sat and waited for Mrs. Xie to come back, and then talked carefully with Mrs. Xie about the Tai Chi Palace and the meeting with His Majesty.
After hearing this, Mrs. Xie nodded: "You are right. Since the Yue family wants to steal your marriage, even if the Yue family wants to be kind, we can't be kind and we are not afraid of offending them. Moreover, the Yue family's move is really
It’s unscrupulous and goes too far.”
Now that the matter has been revealed, if he is not severely punished, he will follow the same example in the future. Anyway, there will not be any big punishment. As Xie Yixiao said, if nine young masters are harmed today, there will be eight young masters and seven young masters tomorrow.
Even the officials in the court are being used to throw dirty water in this way. Wouldn't it mean that the world is full of chaos?
Mrs. Xie asked her a few words and then let her go. The Xie family closed its doors and thanked guests. No matter what the rumors outside today were, it had nothing to do with them.
When Xie Yixiao returned to Qingshan Garden, he took a comfortable bath, and then began to read the account books compiled by Der Spiegel.
She went to the Changning Marquis Mansion when she was five years old, and it has been exactly ten years and three months since then, a total of one hundred and twenty-three months.
The monthly rules for the girls of the Changning Marquis Mansion include twelve taels of monthly money, a piece of cloth, a set of makeup and powder, and if you have jewelry, you can also choose jewelry.
Counting the monthly money alone, at ten taels a month, Xie Yixiao's total is one thousand two hundred and thirty taels of silver. The price of cloth fluctuates a bit, except for some particularly precious ones, which is about six taels of silver per piece.
The particularly expensive ones also had special records with valuations on them. Xie Yixiao looked at them and found that she took twenty-three pieces of cloth, including more than ten taels, two, thirty, and forty taels.
This piece of cloth totals one thousand three hundred and sixty-three taels.
The powder is equivalent to thirty taels of silver every month, for a total of three hundred and sixty-nine taels.
There are also some jewelry, and the jewelry is all recorded. Over the years, she has taken a lot of jewelry from the Changning Marquis Mansion, and the total is 752 taels of silver.
These are not counting the things Jiang gave her, which were even more expensive.
Xie Yixiao didn't want to be clear about Jiang's things. No matter what, she still called Jiang's grandmother. She had Jiang's blood on her body and she looked like the old lady from her family. She couldn't ignore it.
.
Since she had to take care of Jiang's things, she didn't want to separate them so clearly, and if she really counted them one by one, Jiang would be so angry that she would vomit blood.
If so, then keep it.
She only inherited the Jiang family's affection and only cared about the old lady. As for the other people in the Changning Marquis Mansion, they had no affection for her.
What is left is the monthly money that Ming Xin Ming Jing received from the Changning Marquis Mansion, the clothes he made, and the meals he ate.
Xie Yixiao's daily food, other bits and pieces, and the expenses of the maid Xiu Niang of Qinse Garden were also calculated.
When it was all calculated, the total cost was 4,670 taels.
Xie Yixiao took a breath: "So many..."
If converted according to modern value, one tael of silver is almost a thousand yuan, which is equivalent to ten years of her time and a cost of 4.67 million to the Changning Marquis.
Sure enough, it was a day when rich people had daughters.
Ming Jing said: "It's not too much. If we really calculate it, it's only 467 taels a year, 38 taels a month."
Xie Yixiao thought to herself, thirty-eight taels a month is quite a lot, but when she thought about it, the jewelry was still there after all these years, there was still a lot of useless cloth, and a lot of clothes were made.
Nothing more was said.
"Then let's make up the numbers, and I'll give you five thousand taels." Xie Yixiao calculated, "Just think of it as being worth the other uncounted bits and pieces."
Xie Yixiao felt a little sick when she thought about it. She had a lot of good things, but she didn't actually have much money. Over the years, the Xie family also gave her monthly money and other savings. She had saved about
More than three thousand, and the rest is the ten thousand taels your Majesty gave you when you conferred the marriage.
Thousand taels of gold were still lying in the warehouse, but Mrs. Xie had the 10,000 taels of silver carried away by someone, and they were converted into cash and given to her. After all, the 10,000 taels of silver were too much and heavy, and it would not be easy to carry them away when she got married.
It can only be converted into banknotes.
Xie Yixiao asked Ming Jing to write a letter of severance, which stated that Gu You was sorry for her, and that she was willing to use this matter to repay the kindness of Changning Houfu for raising her for many years, and to use the five years she had spent over the years to repay her kindness.
The thousand taels of silver were returned in full, so that the two sides could be cleared.
From then on, the Changning Marquis Mansion could not ask her to do anything for raising her, and she did not owe the Changning Marquis Mansion any favors or things.
Attached is a booklet of her expenses over the years, which she carefully calculated and understood.
After Xie Yixiao read it, he asked Ming Jing to revise it again. Later, he thought it was OK, so he asked Ming Jing to copy it in three copies.
These three deeds require her to sign, fingerprint or stamp with everyone in the Changning Marquis Mansion. When the time comes, she will keep one copy for herself, and the Changning Marquis Mansion will keep one copy. The remaining copies will be kept by herself or handed over to someone else.
To someone you can trust.
When the deed was ready, she asked Ming Xin Mingjing to take the deed and the banknote and go to the Changning Marquis Mansion.
They had two purposes for this trip. One was to pack up Xie Yixiao's things over the years and bring them back. The second was to have the Marquis of Changning accept the banknotes, sign them, fingerprint or stamp them, and settle these matters.
From then on, we really didn't owe anything to each other.
