Chapter 320 Concubine Before Marriage
Chapter 30
Dai Suer's words were concise. After a few words, Song Nan finally understood the current situation of Song Mansion: the use of various procurement preparations and the use of the renovation of the house. In less than two months, several women in charge spent more than 30,000 taels of silver, and the whole Song Mansion has been empty.
"That is to say, we have become poor, right?" Song Nan scratched his head.
"Yes, all the savings have been spent on your wedding. We have no money, so we have to tell you about this matter. The accounts are all here, but we haven't spent a couple of money indiscriminately." Aunt Ye Fang said.
Song Nan said, "Since I have no money, I'm almost ready. Anyway, there are accounts in the shop, so everyone won't be hungry. That's it."
Ye Fanggu said, "But the gap is quite large, and the cost on the wedding day is even more expensive. I guess it's impossible to have seven or eight thousand taels of silver. In view of this, our sisters would like to ask you where these uses come from?"
Song Nan was stunned. Some time ago, he did have the idea of re-considering some ways to make money, but he has always been lack of skills, and this matter has been delayed. Now he is a big man in charge of the brocade guard, and the spending of personnel exchanges is far more than before. The gift money you exchange with people can't be given by 30 or 50 taels of silver, but hundreds of taels of gifts. Song Nan himself has not calculated this account, but in fact, in less than half a year since he was promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei, his own expenses alone have occupied 40% of his family's income.
The remaining 30,000 taels of silver in Song Mansion is still the result of Ye Fanggu's good arrangement and saving. In order to prepare for Song Nan's marriage, Ye Fanggu and Uncle Zhong have begun to strictly control the use of the house as early as a few months ago, and the extravagance and waste led by Song Nan in Song Mansion. Even so, they are still overstretched. .
"The slave family thought, if they could squeeze out some money and have another 8,000 pieces of silver, this matter can be solved satisfactorily. The slave family knows that you don't want us to make such a big deal, but you have ever thought that this is your big wedding and married to the little princess of the state. If we are shabby, won't the little princess not be able to raise her head? The government can't agree either." Aunt Ye Fang said.
Song Nan nodded. He didn't want to treat the little princess badly. These days, he showed how much sincerity he was. He didn't want to be pointed out that he was shabby. But this is completely a swollen behavior. The income in Song's house comes entirely from the rent of six shops and 1,000 mu of land outside Beijing. Although Song Nan knows that the total income can reach nearly 50,000 taels a year, there are many people to support in the whole house. In fact, the balance is not much money. It seems that we must make money quickly.
In fact, Song Nan is not without oil and water to get. Now it is easy for him to get oil and water. There are many criminals and rich people who bribe to save their lives in the hands of Jinyiwei, as well as various officials who please Song Nan. If Song Nan takes these unknown money without scruples, I'm afraid she can get tens of thousands of taels in a month.
But Song Nan knew that the money in his hand was *. Once it exploded, he would fall on the money like Fan Heng and Wang Yue that day; and with this money, he had to excuse the briber. In this way, he was controlled by others and had to go against his conscience when doing things. This is taking people. The reason for short hands.
"Do you want to squeeze out some money?" Song Nan pinched her chin and turned her head quickly, thinking about where she could get the money.
"husband, I have a way." Lu Qingli said.
"Oh? What's the solution?
"Didn't you give me 6,000 taels of silver to make that 'Mrs Lu'? Can you take it out for emergency first at this time? Anyway, I'm not in a hurry about that."
Song Nan quickly waved his hand and said, "If it doesn't work, the silver must be used to make shotgun fire. While Wubei doesn't pay attention to it, I will step up to build a hundred and 80s of it. Originally, I planned to take more money to make more, but now I have to withdraw money? It's definitely not."
The women were silent. Their purpose today was to ask Song Nan to withdraw the money for emergency. Unexpectedly, Song Nan was so resolute.
"In this case, there is only one way to think of." Aunt Ye Fang muttered.
Song Nan said, "You also have a way?"
Ye Fanggu said, "Two years ago, you sent me and Qingli some jewelry or something. We don't need so much jewelry, so why don't Qingli and I take a few pieces to sell and exchange for thousands of taels of silver for an emergency?
Song Nan jumped up and shouted, "Are you going to hit me in the face? How can a seller marry a wife? Did Song Nan really fall to this point? Fortunately, you came up with it."
Ye Fanggu hurriedly said, "It's just an emergency. Just wait to recover and redeem it."
Song Nan frowned and said, "Don't think about it, it's inexplicable! Aunt Fang, your idea is so bad that I'm very unhappy.
When Ye Fang saw that Song Nan seemed to be really angry, she knew that she had violated Song Nan's taboo, so she quickly shut up and couldn't help admiring Dai Suer. Before today, when I and Lu Qingli discussed how to get the gap in silver, I proposed to pawn jewelry. Lu Qingli did not object, but Dai Suer asked her not to say anything. She also said that it would hurt Song Nan's man's self-esteem, and Song Nan would never agree.
At that time, he didn't think that Song Nan would be angry about this matter. After all, this is the best way to relieve his eyebrows. However, it turns out that Dai Suer knows Song Nan better than herself. Although she is closer to Qingli and Song Nan in terms of relationship, Qingli is a piece of white paper and has no intention to specify Song Nan's thoughts, and she is the heart. If you don't think too carefully, you often take it for granted what will happen to Song Nan. In comparison, Dai Suer is more exquisite, as if Dai Suer knows Song Nan's thoughts better than herself.
Thinking of this, Aunt Ye Fang became a little inexplicably unhappy. In the management of her relationship with Song Nan, she not only lagged much behind Qingli, but now she was also thrown away by Dai Suer.
Song Nan got up and paced a little anxiously. There was nothing more embarrassing as a man, but when he asked for money at home, he was shy and more embarrassing. How could Song Nan bear this kind of embarrassment? Whenever he was about to get out of the predicament, Song Nan's brain turned very fast, and suddenly flashed, and a wonderful and shameless way jumped out of thin air.
Song Nan's eyes fell on Ye Fanggu and turned around a few times. Ye Fanggu was annoyed and was stunned by Song Nan. She said angrily, "If we don't go to pawn jewelry, we don't have to look at the slave family so fiercely."
Song Nan smiled and said, "You think too much. I have my own way to make up for the deficit, but I still have an important thing to do before getting married."
"What's the matter?" The three women said with one voice.
Song Nan said, "After a few more months, the little princess will enter the door. Although the little princess is the identity of the wife, you know that I treat you equally in my heart. You are all my beloved children of Song Nan."
The women blushed, and Ye Fang said, "I'm talking about business. What are you talking about?"
Song Nan said, "It's not numb. I'm talking about serious things. Needless to say, Qingli has passed the door. I think here that before the little princess passes through the door, let Aunt Fang and Su'er pass through the door, so as not to make trouble."
Dai Suer blushed and said nothing. Ye Fang said, "What on earth are you thinking about? Now that you and the little princess are the big deal, I don't want you to marry me.
Song Nan said, "You certainly believe me, but I can't guarantee that the little princess will not have branches after passing through the door. People say that it's one thing before marriage and another thing after marriage. What if a little princess is a jealous jar and won't let me marry you as a big woman in the future?"
Lu Qingli said, "No, the little princess is not that kind of person."
Song Nan stared at her and said, "Are you the roundworm in her stomach? Do you remember that she came here to make a scene when I married you? That's the sign."
Lu Qingli said, "Is that also noisy?"
Song Nan winked at Lu Qingli and asked her not to talk too much. She continued, "I can't guarantee it. I can't live up to Aunt Fang and Su'er, so I'm going to marry you two before getting married. If you don't agree, I'm not going to do it."
Aunt Ye Fang was stunned and said, "What's wrong with you? I didn't see you speak ill of the little princess behind your back. Your reason is not valid at all.
Song Nan waved her hand and said, "Don't manage it for no reason. Just say whether you are willing or not. In a word, willing is willing, and unwilling is unwilling."
The three women couldn't figure out what was wrong with Song Nan. Ye Fanggu looked at Song Nan's words without joking. She had refused to marry Song Nan several times. Could she refuse again this time? Looking at Dai Suer's look, she was very willing. She already felt that she had fallen behind Dai Suer. If she refused again this time, I'm afraid that Song Nan would never propose to marry her again in the future.
"Suer, what do you say? You and I have experienced something, and now we know each other. Would you like me to marry you? Song Nan forced people to make a statement.
Dai Suer's face was as red as paper and she didn't know what to do. All this came too suddenly. Although she knew that from the day she returned to Song Mansion, she would follow Song Nan for a lifetime, but suddenly she was about to get married and was still a little at a loss.
"Okay, Suer acquiesced. Now it's Aunt Fang's turn. Would you like it?"
The three women rolled their eyes and said that they had acquiesced before they answered, which was too rogue.
"Although I don't know why you want to do this today, I don't want to investigate the details. What I want to remind you is that you'd better discuss this matter with the government. Marry two side rooms before you get married. I'm afraid that you will be scolded by the state government." Aunt Ye Fang had to warn Song Nan.
Song Nan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of the matter of the State. You just said whether you agreed or not."
Ye Fanggu hesitated and said, "The time seems to be too short... Only one month is the day for you to get married."
Song Nan said, "Then why don't we hurry up? Qingli, tell Uncle Zhong to hurry up this matter, write an invitation and send it out, and marry Aunt Fang and Su'er five days later.
"Five days later?" The three women opened their mouths wide.
Song Nan laughed and said, "Is it okay if I'm in a hurry?"
