Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

Ye Jintang, who had been waiting for a long time, said impatiently as soon as he entered the house, "Old Six died in a foreign land. It was really a miserable fate. As a mother, I am also very sad."

"I heard someone say that the soul of a person who dies in a foreign land cannot rest in peace, so it is best to copy the scriptures and give them to him."

"But I am old and powerless. You are the only daughter of the sixth elder brother, so I can ask you to copy the scriptures for your grandmother."

"When Lao Liu is buried, take the scriptures you copied to his grave and burn them, so that Lao Liu can rest in peace."

As she spoke, Nanny Sun placed a large pile of scriptures on the table.

At this moment, Ye Jintang finally understood what Madam Ye was up to again. If he copied the entire scripture which was three fingers thick, he might break his hands from writing.

But the reason given by the old lady did not allow Ye Jintang to refuse.

If she dared to say she would not copy today, she would be immediately accused of being unfilial.

Moreover, Old Madam Ye meant that if she couldn't finish copying, she would not allow her parents to be buried in the ancestral home.

Ye Jintang has been in business for so many years and he knows very well that if you procrastinate, you will end up with nothing.

What a great old lady Ye is! She is quite cunning. Unfortunately, no matter how much she planned, she could never have predicted that her soul, Ye Jintang, had long been replaced by someone else.

With her speed of finishing one pen refill a day during the college entrance examination, this Buddhist scripture was a piece of cake for her.

I wonder if she will finish copying it in a few days. Will Old Madam Ye be so surprised that she will have a heart attack?

By then, she would like to see what excuses she can come up with to stop her parents from being buried in the ancestral tomb.

"Grandma is so thoughtful. Your granddaughter is so young that she can't even think of this. Thank you, grandma."

Ye Jintang looked grateful and stood up and saluted her in a pretentious manner.

Whether it was expression or etiquette, Ye Jintang got it just right.

Old Madam Ye thought that Ye Jintang was a simple person and could be easily fooled.

As for the fact that she was acting like a demon in the room before, it was probably because she was really weak.

"Grandma still feels sorry for you. I'm tired. Please go back."

"Madame Sun, tell those concubines and concubines not to come and pay their respects to me."

Old Madam Ye waved at Ye Jintang, signaling her to leave.

Seeing that Ye Jintang had given Old Madam Ye enough trouble today, he did not continue and gave her a break. She would still need Old Madam Ye's help when she married into Prince Qin's Mansion in the future.

After coming out of Old Madam Ye's yard, Ye Jintang did not leave immediately, but called Nanny Sun.

"Madame Sun, my room is too cold. I want to light a fire. I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to bring me some charcoal."

"Miss Six, you don't know that each courtyard is only allowed two baskets of charcoal per month. If you want to burn the ground dragon, you will have to pay for the extra charcoal yourself."

"Why don't you put a few hot water bottles in your quilt at night? That way you can save money on charcoal and buy yourself some clothes."

"Oh, is that so? Then I'll send my maid out to buy charcoal myself, so I won't bother Madam Sun."

Ye Jintang secretly complained that the people in the Marquis' Mansion were quite stingy, with two baskets of charcoal per person per month, which was probably only enough for hand warmers.

"Sixth Miss, I have one more thing to say. The number of maids and servants you brought with you far exceeds your share of profits. According to the rules of the Marquis' Mansion, you need to use your own money to make up for the excess profits."

"Well, I see."

Ye Jintang took her people away very readily. Naturally, her own maid did not need monthly salary from the Marquis' Mansion.

Nanny Sun watched Ye Jintang and his group leave in a grand manner. The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. She waved her hand and called a little maid over.

"Xiao Huan, go and keep an eye on the Jade Courtyard and see what they have been doing these days. Tell me if there is anything."

"it is good."

Ye Jintang had just returned to her room when Aunt Liu asked Zhou Wuwei to go out and watch. She pulled Ye Jintang into the room and whispered, "Miss, Lord Jiang didn't say he would come to pay respect to the master and the mistress. What about this?"

"I deceived the old lady about this matter. If I hadn't said that, she would definitely not let my parents be buried in the ancestral tomb."

"Young lady, aren't you afraid of being exposed? The old lady will blame you then."

"What are you afraid of? When the time comes, just say that Lord Jiang has left the capital and doesn't have time to come. The Censorate doesn't keep idle people. A high-ranking official like Lord Jiang will definitely travel around and do things for the emperor. It's normal for him not to be in the capital."

Ye Jintang said it lightly, but Aunt Liu was horrified when she heard it.

Which unmarried girl could be as bold as Ye Jintang? Even the people from the Censorate dared to use her as a shield.

"You heard what Nanny Sun said just now. We have to go out and buy charcoal ourselves if we need it in our house. Ask Zhou Cong and the others to go out and buy more charcoal. We can burn the fire more vigorously and sleep more comfortably at night."

"Ah, these old ladies only take advantage of the fact that the girl is young, and they don't know the twists and turns in the mansion."

Nanny Zhang, who was standing by, couldn't bear to watch this and couldn't help but speak up for Ye Jintang.

In a large family like the Marquis' Mansion, although everyone has a fixed share of profits on the surface, this only restricts the servants, and the masters of the various courtyards are not included.

"Miss, you don't know that every year before winter comes, the Marquis' Mansion will definitely buy a batch of charcoal early and distribute it to the masters of each courtyard to burn the earth dragons. There is no profit sharing involved at all."

"Madame Sun didn't give the young lady charcoal. On the surface, it seemed like she was following the rules of the mansion, but in fact, she was just trying to embarrass the young lady."

Ye Jintang smiled bitterly. The only thing in her mind was the original plot. She had no idea about the lifestyle of the ladies and ladies in the inner chambers of ancient times.

Some time ago, the two maids told her a lot of things in the inner house, but unfortunately, when it comes to actual implementation, mistakes are still easy to occur.

It seems that I have to live in the marquis's mansion for a while longer and carefully learn the rules of this large mansion.

Zhou Cong was an efficient worker and he brought back two carts of coal in just one morning.

In addition to the charcoal for burning earthworms, he also bought some silver incense charcoal for Ye Jintang. I heard that silver incense charcoal does not produce any smoke when burned, and even has a slight fragrance, which is not choking at all.

Ye Jintang settled down completely. She replaced everything in the room, even her bed with a Qiangong Babu bed.

This was left by Madam Wen, who originally intended it as a dowry for her. Unfortunately, Ye Jintang was going to be a princess in the future, and this bed would be a bit shabby as a dowry for the princess.

It was just right for Ye Jintang to use now.

For three consecutive days, Ye Jintang followed Madam Ye's instructions and did not go to pay his respects to her, but focused on copying scriptures.

Every day she could sleep until noon, and after breakfast, she would practice Eight Section Brocade and Five Animal Exercises, and then spend the whole day reading medical books and writing prescriptions with Liuli. When she was tired of studying, she would copy scriptures to empty her mind. Her life was very fulfilling.

She lived a comfortable life, but Old Madam Ye was unhappy.

"How could that dead girl be so heartless? I lost my temper two days ago, but she didn't even react at all?"

Old Madam Ye leaned back on the soft pillow, looking unhappy.
