Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Doctor Hou’s concubine a bit poisonous!The second wife, Ouyang Fu, said: “My daughter-in-law heard that this year’s sea trade was not going well, first due to typhoons, then pirates raged, and each ship suffered to varying degrees. The harvest of the farms and shops was basically the same as last year’s, or even slightly. There are more. But because of heavy losses in sea trade, this year's revenue will be 20% less than last year."

Pei re-read the ledger, and found that the income of Haimao, compared with the income of previous years in her memory, was indeed significantly reduced.

"Why didn't this matter be reported to the princess in time?"

Ouyang Fu tilted his head and looked at Xiao Qin'er.

Xiao Qin'er opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Daughter-in-law was worried about disturbing the concubine, so she didn't let the accountant report."

"absurd!"

Pei dropped the ledger and stared at Xiao Qin'er with bad eyes.

"You dare to conceal such a big thing, what do you want to do? A word of worry can disturb the princess, can this be explained? The whole palace, who is in charge, do not know in your heart? The wings have not grown hard yet. Just dare to go over and take care of this princess, who will give you the courage."

As soon as Pei's temper came up, it didn't matter whether Xiao Qin'er was Liu Yi's wife or not, it was just a swearing.

Xiao Qin'er flushed, and was so ashamed that she could not find a place to sew it down.

What a shame.

Concubine Shen and Concubine Luo exchanged glances, and both saw smiles in each other's eyes.

Gu Jiu said that it was not a smile, it was obviously gloating.

Concubine Shen Bian said aloud: "The princess calmed down her anger. Madam Yi, she is kind to do bad things. She just wants to be filial to the princess and the princess, but she forgot to prioritize things. Please forgive her this time. Young people, do things. It is inevitable to be imperfect. You will know what to do when you encounter similar things in the future."

Pei stared at Xiao Qin'er, very dissatisfied, "Have you heard, Concubine Shen is saying good things for you, you don't know how to say thank you."

Xiao Qin'er was ashamed and annoyed, got up, faced concubine Shen Bianfu and blessed her body, "Thank Concubine Shen Bian for her kind words."

Consort Shen covered her mouth and smiled, "Mrs. Yi, sit down quickly. Don't blame the princess and empress, she is also for your own good. Such a big thing, the princess is in charge, but finally realized that it shouldn't be done next time. The same error."

Xiao Qin'er was so wronged, tears almost came down.

She nodded and said, "I know, I won't dare anymore next time. Please forgive me this time."

Princess Pei snorted coldly, "This time I thought you were the first offender, and this princess will not be held accountable. Next time you dare to conceal it, you don't need to be an assistant butler, first take care of the things in your yard."

Xiao Qin'er's face turned pale, and her lips trembled and responded, "My daughter-in-law obeys."

Xiao Qin'er had suffered such a grievance for the first time since she married into the palace, and tears fell as a servant.

Ouyang Fu lowered his head and smiled, secretly exchanged glances with Concubine Shen.

Xiao Qin'er thought that by robbing her of her errand, it would go smoothly, and saying one thing in the palace was pure dreaming.

Gu Jiu bowed his head slightly, paying attention to the reaction of the two wives.

When she saw the smile in Ouyang Fu's eyes, she also laughed.

Sure enough, there is no simple character in the palace.Everyone has an abacus in his heart, calculating his own interests.

Xiao Qin'er planned to conceal this from the beginning?

Or did someone give her a face-to-face instruction that inspired her to make this absurd and bold decision?

Gu Jiu has no way of knowing.

But I also know that it is not for Xiao Qin'er to show the limelight this time.

Sure enough, Pei's will still be angry, so he told Ouyang Fu, "Second daughter-in-law, you should work harder for all the New Year's affairs, according to last year's old rules, and prepare well."

Ouyang Fu bowed to take his orders, his expression satisfied.

After a pause, Pei looked at Gu Jiu again.

She has two sons, Liu Zhao and Liu Yi.Two daughter-in-laws, one Xiao Qin'er and one Gu Jiu.

Xiao Qin'er made a mistake this time, and Pei planned to leave her out for a while.

After thinking about it, I clicked Gu Jiu's name, "The eldest daughter-in-law, you and the second daughter-in-law prepare items for the New Year together."

"Daughter-in-law, please."

Gu Jiu was surprised, and he didn't expect Pei to call her name.

She thought that if Pei disliked her, he would definitely abandon her forever and never let her steward her.

She also planned to spend half a year in her leisure time, and wait until next year to find a suitable opportunity to roll up her sleeves and start working again, to take back her own glory.

Unexpectedly, only a few days after entering the door, Pei called her name.Although it is an associate, it can be considered a first step.

However, her previous opportunity must be overturned.

What a leisure for a year and a half, now seems impossible.

Pei said to Xiao Qin'er again: "The fourth daughter-in-law, do your errands well, and don't worry about other things for now."

Xiao Qin'er nodded aggrievedly, "The daughter-in-law listens to the mother and concubine."

She wanted to show up during the Chinese New Year and let everyone see her butler's ability.But I didn't expect that once he was careless, he would lose everything.

She snatched the errand for the New Year from Ouyang Fu. Unexpectedly, the errand returned to Ouyang Fu.

What is even more annoying is that the princess even called Gu Jiu's name and asked Gu Jiu to prepare for the New Year.

After a while, she will be ashamed.

At the thought of being pointed and pointed by people, Xiao Qin'er felt that she had no face to be a human being, and she felt so uncomfortable that she would never come out to see people again.

Concubine Shen side smiled and said: "The handling of the princess and empress is extremely appropriate, and the concubine is ashamed."

Princess Pei smiled, with an indifferent expression, and said to Concubine Shen: "I know your skills, but now we are all old, we should let young people practice."

"What the princess said is that young people should really practice their hands."

Concubine Shen side a smile, flattering Princess Pei everywhere, coaxing Princess Pei very happy.

After everything was done, everyone got up to say goodbye, and they were busy.

"Second brother and sister."

Gu Jiu stopped Ouyang Fu.

Ouyang Fu looked back, greeted with a smile, "Sister-in-law asked me what's the matter."

Gu Jiu smiled and said: "The princess has ordered me to assist the New Year's item items. I'm here to ask the second younger siblings to learn from them."

Ouyang Fu hid his lips and smiled happily, "Sister-in-law is really good at joking. I'm also groping slowly. If I don't understand, I will ask the princess or the two side concubines."

The second son, Liu Ping, was born to the concubine Shen Fang, so Ouyang Fu and the concubine Shen Fang were serious mother-in-laws.

Of course, Gu Jiu doesn't need theory for this relationship.

She took Ouyang Fu's hand, "Let's go to the chamber together, okay?"

"I listen to my sister-in-law."

"I have something I don't understand, so please ask my second sibling to teach me."

"Don't be it, let's explore and learn together."

"Unexpectedly, the Royal Mansion would still be engaged in sea trade." Gu Jiu asked about the most concerned question.

"The sea trade is very profitable, and many people in Beijing have participated in the sea. By the way, like Pingnan Hou Gu's family, they also participated in the sea trade."

Does Hou Mansion also do sea trade?

It was the first time Gu Jiu heard of it.

She asked curiously: "Our palace is engaged in sea trade, so is the sea ship owned or owned by the shipowner?"

Ouyang Fu glanced at Gu Jiu, "Sister-in-law is so interested in sea trade, is it possible to use a dowry silver ginseng?"

Gu Jiu laughed, "I think, but the dowry money is limited, but I dare not throw it into the sea. I'm just curious."

"Sister-in-law is right, the maritime risk is high, so we won't participate."

Gu Jiu asked again: "My younger brother and sister haven't told me about the sea-going ships. I always hear people say that the sea-going ships are so huge that a sea-going ship would cost tens of thousands of taels to build. After that, additional money will be spent on maintenance every year."

Ouyang Fu nodded, "That's natural. A decent sea-going ship, without thirty or forty thousand taels, can't be bought.

Like the biggest sea-going ship, it's less than 100,000 taels.

Some of the big households in the capital buy sea-going boats for business, and some families get together to buy a sea-going boat.There is also cooperation with the shipping line, renting the shipping line to run the sea.

However, in recent years, the imperial court has also begun to pay attention to sea trade, and those who are involved will go to sea on the imperial boat.It's just that the imperial navy can't fight well, and it's not as good as a ship's guard when encountering pirates."

Gu Jiu heard this, thoughtful.

Ouyang Fu pulled Gu Jiu, "Sister-in-law, let's not talk about this. There will be a few days in the new year, and there are many things to prepare today."

Gu Jiu nodded.

She was full of passion and yearning for the sea.

She is not only eager for the high profits of the sea trade, but also wants to find a way out for herself.

The ghost knew if King Ning's Mansion would fall in another day.

Even if Prince Ning's Mansion will not fall, who knows whether Liu Zhao will fall?

Since ancient times, the eldest son succeeded to the throne of the emperor, that is rare.

There are not many of Qingshi's names.

The emperors who really have done great things are all killed out of the sea of ​​blood.

As the eldest son of Liu Zhao, Gu Jiu is not optimistic, based on the tragedy of the eldest son of the royal family.

So she had to find a way out and a way out for herself early.

Going to sea is the best choice.

It's just that the high cost of sea-going ships made Gu Jiu depressed.

The money problem can be solved slowly in the future.

The most critical problem is that she has no suitable candidates.

Sure enough, no matter in this life or in the previous life, the most precious thing is still talent.

She needs many faithful and reliable people to do things for her.

Gu Jiu temporarily suppressed this idea, and first followed Ouyang Fu to the Chamber of Deputies, the first official contact with the internal affairs of the palace.

The royal family's internal affairs are many and complicated, and things are several times more than that of Gu's.

There are hundreds more people in the royal palace alone than in the Gu palace.

Counting farms, shops, royal officials, and guards, there are nearly a thousand more people.

Outside matters are handled by the officials of the royal palace.

Internal affairs, in fact, are handled by a team led by the Royal Family Order.

But the princess Pei was not so relieved. Many things would still be discussed in person.

In the Chamber of Commerce, Master Ling Shi of the Wangfu Family is taking seven or eight accountants to settle accounts.

Gu Jiu and Ouyang Fu arrived, but the accountants did not stop.

Wangfu Jialing stood up alone and saluted the two of them.

Gu said, "Exemption. What are you doing?"

Wangfu Jialing said: "Every account needs to be calculated one by one. The income under the name of the prince and the princess should also be calculated as soon as possible. There is also a general ledger for the king."

Gu Jiu knew it.

The Royal Family Commander took out a few thick books, "This is the list of people under the Royal Palace, please read it."

Gu Jiu nodded and took the booklet.

Immediately afterwards, the Wangfu Jialing took out several books of accounts, "This is the budget arrangement for rewards during the Chinese New Year. The other books are the expenditure budgets during the Chinese New Year. Please check it out."

As soon as Gu Jiu came, the Royal Family Order, like Tao Jiadi, explained everything to Gu Jiu.

Ouyang Fu's eyes twitched several times, and his mood was very complicated.

When she first assisted the housekeeper, Wangfu Jialing was not like that.Just throw her an account book and let her go through it.

There is no such thing as a roster of people, and an itemized budget for the New Year.

None of these.

Comparing the two, Gu Jiu's treatment is too good.Even Xiao Qin'er can't match it.

The royal family's order to Xiao Qin'er was official.

Is it because Gu Jiu is the eldest daughter-in-law and the eldest wife, that's why Wangfu Jialing would act like this?

Yes!

In the final analysis, the Royal Family Order is considered to be the prince’s person.

Although he usually listens to the princess's orders, the true loyal person is the princess.

The attitude of Wangfu Jialing towards Gu Jiu reflects the attitude of the prince from the side.

Ouyang Fu couldn't help but glanced at Gu Jiu more.

Gu Jiu came to the inside and chose a blank desk to sit down.

From now on, she will be here as an assistant butler and understand the ups and downs of the palace.

She flipped through the roster first, and flipped it very quickly.

The two maids, Qingmei and Qingzhu, took up the abacus directly and began to settle the accounts without ordering them.

Mother Fang waited on the side, introducing the characters on the roster for Gu Jiu.

Ouyang Fu walked in from the outside, followed by Xiao Qin'er behind him.

Gu Jiu glanced, Xiao Qin'er's eyes were red, but she still insisted on going to the Chamber.

"Four younger siblings are here."

Xiao Qin'er gave a hum and sat down on the left side.

Ouyang Fu sat at the desk on the right.

Everyone is in charge of his own business.

During the Chinese New Year, the palace will first enter the palace to attend a palace banquet, and then the palace will also prepare a banquet to entertain relatives and friends.

For the preparation of the banquet, Ouyang Fu had an experience.

However, there are new tricks this year, and guests should not be allowed to think that they are all the same every time they come to the palace.

For example, last year's banquet, the tableware set up was a set of rich and precious peonies.

We can no longer use rich peonies this year, we have to replace them with flowers.

Another example is the flower hall for hospitality. Last year's screens were pictures of ladies.This year, I have to switch to a flower and bird picture.

All details must be considered, and everything that should be replaced is replaced.

These things are extremely trivial, but they can't make any mistakes.

Before, Xiao Qin'er had been busy with these things, and Ouyang Fu was the assistant.

It was the first time Xiao Qin'er dealt with such an errand, and it was very inefficient.

Ouyang Fu never reminded her, just watching.

Sure enough, Xiao Qin'er took the initiative to take care of the matter, and something went wrong.

Now this errand has returned to Ouyang Fu.

Ouyang Fu secretly glanced at Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu is still looking through the list of people, as if not planning to intervene in her work.

She looked at Xiao Qin'er again.

Xiao Qin'er was originally in charge of the sewing room's procurement, the most oily errand, this would be looking at the sewing room's account book.

After all, the princess and the empress still love the son-in-law and Xiao Qin'er the most.Otherwise, the most oily errands will not be handed over to Xiao Qin'er.

As for Ouyang Fu, let her be the assistant manager.Wherever she is needed, she will be busy.

Ouyang Fu sneered secretly and continued to work.

Gu Jiu focused on two tasks, flipping through the roster, listening to the introduction of Mother Fang.While watching the reaction of the two concubines.

Xiao Qin'er was scorned by the princess and empress today, she would be very honest, she would not say a word.

A mother-in-law came to ask for instructions, but she also spoke softly and looked very gentle.

As for Ouyang Fu, Gu Jiu smiled, thinking a lot.

Of course, none of the people in the palace is pure-hearted.

Everyone has a seven-orifice exquisite heart.

Otherwise, how can you gain a foothold in the palace.

Said that the palace is a place of cannibalism, and the palace is no different.

After calculating the budget for rewards for the new year, Qingmei said in a whisper to Gu Jiu: "Madam Kai, there is no problem with this account. Just the specific number of rewards, please check it personally."

Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and took a look at the account book.

The number of rewards looks staggering.

The most are hundreds of taels, and the least are only a few hundred dollars.

She quickly flipped through the ledger and checked the roster, so Gu Jiu understood the intention of the Royal Family Order.

The person who rewards a lot is the person she needs to pay attention to.

She accepted this favor from the Royal Family Order.

Gu Jiu didn't cover it up, and directly picked up a pen and copied a list of key people to follow from the famous roster.

Busy, time always flies extremely fast.

I felt busy for a while, and it was noon.

Gu Jiu went outside and returned the roster and account books to the Royal Family Order.

"Thank you, Sir Jialing."

Wangfu Clan Ling was a little surprised, "Have you finished reading Madam?"

Gu Jiu nodded, "I have finished reading it. I have no objection to the budget during the New Year."

She arrived for the first time, and she hadn't fully understood the situation, so naturally she couldn't have any objections.

The Wangfu family was surprised, "So fast?"

Gu Jiu smiled and said: "I have always settled accounts very quickly. There is anything else I need to share with Mr. Jia Ling, just say it."

Off-topic

I have a cold, and my thinking is stuck.

I reorganized my thinking, thought about how to develop in the palace, and made a new outline, so today's second update is late.

Please forgive me.
