Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

"If my mother-in-law trusts me, I will be grateful. In the Xie Mansion, I also learned how to manage the household from my mother, so I am not completely ignorant of it." Xie Xiangxiang said respectfully.

The old lady's eyes were vague, but she did not stop.

Hearing her words, Mrs. Tu said angrily, "Well, I'll have someone send the account books, keys, and cards to Fanghua Garden later."

Xie Xiangxiang raised the corners of her lips very high and said generously: "Thank you, mother."

She quickly looked at Xie Zhaozhao, who had his eyelids lowered, still looking unperturbed by fame or disgrace!

Mrs. Lu, Aunt Wang and others blinked their eyes and said nothing.

Anyway, it’s not their turn to take care of the household expenses, so it doesn’t matter who is in charge. As long as they have good meals and get paid on time, who cares who is in charge!

The temple is poor but the abbot is rich. Tu has been in charge of the finances for more than ten years. Although the mansion is not rich, as long as the door is open, there will be benefits.

Tu didn't expect Xie Xiangxiang to really take over the household duties. How could a new daughter-in-law come up to take over the household duties? Or was she trying to seize the power from her mother-in-law?

When Tu returned to her yard, she was so angry that she smashed things.

The personal nanny, Nanny Wan, advised: "Madam, there is really no need to be angry. Think about it, she is in charge of the household affairs. Even if she makes a profit, in the end, isn't it the prince's?"

"Now the account is seriously in deficit. If she wants to be the first one to take charge, let her do it. If she wants to be respectable, she must swallow her anger and show her filial piety to you."

"The dowries of Xie's daughters are all generous. I think the dowry of the third wife is even better than that of the princess. The wife of the prince really can't bear it anymore. As sisters, the third wife will naturally help. Otherwise, we would be embarrassed to ask the third wife for subsidies."

After some persuasion from Nanny Wan, Mrs. Tu immediately understood.

If she said that she disliked Xie Xiangxiang, it was only because she seized power today. In fact, the person she disliked the most was Xie Zhaozhao.

She didn't know why, but she always felt that Xie Zhaozhao was superior and his eyes were always cold.

Like the third one, he is the most annoying.

Soon, Tu sent people to deliver all the account books, keys, and cards in the mansion to Fanghua Garden and gave them to Xie Xiangxiang.

Xie Xiangxiang was overjoyed.

Only a few days after she married into the Marquis's Mansion, she gained the power to manage the household. With such ability and luck, she asked: Who else?

Xiang Xing and Bi You were her dowry, and Xu also picked the most capable Nanny Wei for her.

Seeing the account books, keys, and matching cards brought by Nanny Wan and Ruhua, the three of them smiled happily. Nanny Wei said, "The Marquis's wife has really given all the household expenses to the young lady, even the matching cards."

Xie Xiangxiang asked Xiangxing to give tips to Nanny Wan and Ruhua who were delivering the account books. The two of them smiled and took the tips, then left without stopping.

Xiang Xing, Bi You and Nanny Wei began to sort out the accounts, but they felt increasingly heavy in their hearts.

"Miss, this, this is impossible, right?"

Xiang Xing said in disbelief, "The entire Marquis's Mansion is actually in debt of tens of thousands of taels?"

Nanny Wei had already calculated it two or three times, and found that the account books of the Marquis' Mansion could not be compared with those of the Xie Mansion.

The accounts of the Xie Mansion need to be sorted out. Even the most capable Madam Xu would need seven or eight days to finish them, as the shops, fields, income and expenditure are all complicated.

As for the accounts of the Marquis' Mansion, the money coming in is clearly visible, and even though the money going out is in small amounts, it is also clearly visible.

It only took half a day to finish.

The income is nothing but the old lady's dowry, the farm that His Majesty bestowed on the deceased old marquis, and Lord Gu's salary, farm and shop income.

The most valuable things are only Lord Gu’s farm and shop.

The old lady's several shops suddenly closed down last month, note: compensation.

The entire account shows: there are 174 taels of silver in the account, which is the gifts received from various parties during the wedding.

If it weren't for the income of 5 taels of silver, the Marquis' Mansion would be penniless now and would even owe foreign debts.

Xie Xiangxiang was annoyed and took Nanny Wei to find Tu.

"Mother, what's going on? Why is there only 174 taels of silver in the account? Isn't it enough for one day's food?"

"Yes, only those who manage the household know how expensive firewood and rice are. You can see that this is the current situation of the Marquis's Mansion." Tu was secretly happy and said, "Originally there was still some money in the account, but when you and the third wife came in, you emptied the mansion."

Wei Ma Ma couldn't help but say, "I noticed that the servants haven't received their pay for two months. Is it possible that the Crown Prince's wife will have to find a way to pay for these pay?"

Tu looked at her like a monster: "Whoever is in charge of the household affairs will have to find a way to spend the money."

Xie Xiangxiang was dumbfounded for a moment. What on earth was this right to manage household expenses that she had so happily obtained?

She was so happy to give tips to Nanny Wan and Ruhua, they must be laughing at her for being so stupid!

Tu saw that she was dumbfounded and didn't want to give her any advice. When she told Xie Xiangxiang about it, she was still a little angry, but now she was extremely straightforward.

"You can go back. I'm a little tired today. I'll take a nap first. By the way, I have a poor appetite today. I heard that the blood swallows at Yuqingtang are very good. Can you make some for me?"

You don’t have a penny, but you still want to enjoy the best?

Xie Xiangxiang wanted to throw the account book in her face. What kind of pretense is this? This marquisate is really enough.

Xie Xiangxiang returned to Fanghua Garden in a daze and said blankly: "Xiang Xing, Bi You, do you think my mother-in-law did this on purpose?"

Xiang Xing also felt extremely regretful. They shouldn't have been so hasty and should have learned more about the Marquis' Mansion.

What should we do with this hot potato now?

Just as he was feeling anxious and worried, a maid from the mansion came to withdraw the silver.

They were all smart people. They knew that the Crown Prince's wife had just taken over the household expenses today and must not be clear about the situation in the mansion, so they quickly paid the money.

Mrs. Zhang, who was in charge of purchasing in the kitchen, came to Xie Xiangxiang with a sign, smiling and flattering her loudly: "The wife of the prince comes from a famous family, and you can tell at a glance that she has a very good temper. You are in charge of the household affairs, and we servants will be blessed in the future."

Xie Xiangxiang couldn't slap someone who was trying to flatter her, so she had to say to Xiang Xing, "Give me some money."

Xiang Xing checked and confirmed everything, so she had no choice but to give her 40 taels for firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

Mrs. Zhang had a smile on her face, praised him again, and went out happily.

As soon as he got out, he told his good friends, "Go get the money quickly. The new wife is shy. By the time she realizes what's going on, you won't get a penny."

Xie Xiangxiang got the key to the household, but within just one day, all the 174 taels of silver were gone, and she even lost more than 300 taels.

Nanny Wan came over and said to her, "Madam, the servants' wages must be paid. Several servants in the outer courtyard have not received their wages for three months."

Xie Xiangxiang said angrily: "I haven't received it for three months, and you have the nerve to tell me such a thing?"

Nanny Wan's face was hot as she said, "You are the housekeeper now, who else can I ask for help? You can also discuss it with the Third Madam, maybe she has a good idea. This monthly allowance must be paid."

How could Xie Xiangxiang possibly discuss this with Xie Zhaozhao?

She had no choice but to use her dowry to pay the servants the regular wages.

There were more than 600 servants in the Marquis's Mansion, and together with the allowances of the masters of each room, she would have to spend nearly 600 taels of silver this time.

Within three days of taking charge, she had already contributed over a thousand taels of silver.
