[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

Seeing that Rong Enqing finally focused her attention on herself, Xiao Rong said angrily, "Aunt, how could you do this to me?"

Rong Enqing was stunned, "What did I do to you?"

Xiao Rong glared at her angrily, "You promised to make me the Marquis's wife, but you didn't do it! Now you want to separate our family from the Marquis's Mansion!

"The second and third rooms were both born to that bitch Jiang, so it's only natural that they should be separated. Why should we be separated as well?

"Even when you divided up the family property, you only gave us a tiny bit? What can we do with that little money?

"The second branch of the family has the dowry of that bitch Jiang as a subsidy, but what about our fourth branch? Our legitimate fourth branch is not even as good as the illegitimate second branch!

"Wow, what's the point of living like this? If I had known that I would have to live like this, I should not have married here! Wow, I'm going to write a letter to my parents and grandparents, saying that my aunt bullied me!"

Oh my god! Rong Enqing felt as if he was struck by lightning!

Aren’t Xiao Rong’s parents her eldest brother and sister-in-law? Aren’t Xiao Rong’s grandparents her parents?

If Xiao Rong sent a letter and summoned these people, wouldn't her peaceful life be ruined again?

Pit! Sinkhole!

Rong Enqing had just dealt with the mess in the Marquis' Mansion and had not yet lived the good life he dreamed of. How could he allow another group of people to come and torment him?

So, he immediately comforted her, "Oh, okay, okay, aren't you just dissatisfied with the poor financial situation after the division? The second branch has Jiang's subsidy, and don't you also have me?"

Little Rong still pouted, looking at Rong Enqing with eyes full of reluctance, but also with a hint of expectation, "Then how much subsidy can aunt give us?"

Rong Enqing calculated the original dowry and the property accumulated over the years, which was quite a lot. Although the Rong family was not a wealthy family, it was also considered a middle-class family. In addition, the marriage with the Marquis's Mansion was granted by the Emperor Kaiyuan, so the Emperor Kaiyuan also rewarded a dowry.

Because she was marrying up, the Rong family spent a lot of money on her dowry. In addition to the house, shop, and servants, she also gave her a dowry of 3,000 taels of silver.

After marrying into the Marquis's mansion, she was not controlled by her mother-in-law, nor was she constrained by her sisters-in-law. She managed the household affairs of the Marquis's mansion for thirty years. During this period, she also made a lot of money.

Especially after knowing that Yun Zhen had prepared several dowries for Jiang, the original owner became even more ruthless in taking money from the public treasury into his own pocket.

Yun Zhen prepared a dowry of more than 20,000 taels for Jiang, and the original person increased his own dowry more than tenfold, from less than 10,000 taels to more than 100,000 taels.

The small house she brought as a dowry became three large houses in good locations! The three medium-sized shops she brought as a dowry also became fifteen high-end shops that made a lot of money! Although she didn't have many more servants, the silver she kept at the bottom of her chest now amounted to 50,000 taels!

These are not even counted. Just today's reward from His Majesty alone amounted to more than two thousand taels.

It can be said that as long as Rong Enqing gets rid of these annoying things, her life will be spent on spending money and maintaining her health, maintaining her health, spending money, and then living to be a hundred years old.

Thinking of this, Rong En said briskly, "Aren't you envious of the subsidies that Jiang gave to the second house? I remember that the dowry that the Marquis bought for Jiang was about 20,000 taels. So, I will subsidize you 30,000 taels! Are you satisfied this time?"

Xiao Rong was obviously shocked by this number. The dissatisfaction, resentment, expectation... all the emotions on her face turned into shock. "Really?"

She and her aunt were both married girls from the Rong family. Her aunt's dowry was more generous because the emperor granted her marriage, but it was no more than 10,000 taels. When she got married, her dowry was only 3,000 taels. Among them, there was 1,000 taels of silver that her aunt sent back to her.

She thought her aunt would give them a subsidy of several thousand taels of silver at most, but she didn't expect her aunt to give them thirty thousand taels at once! It can be seen that being a marquis' wife can really make people rich and prosperous.

There was a flash of unwillingness in Xiao Rong's eyes.

Yunhai also said with sparkling eyes: "Mother, do you really want to subsidize us with so much money? But where do you get so much money? Now that the family has been divided, I'm afraid it's not a good idea for you to subsidize us with the public money."

Rong Enqing felt warm in her heart. Just because of Yun Hai's words, she was willing to subsidize them. Besides, more money is just a number. She would not spend the rest of her life counting money.

"Don't worry, mother has money. It's all the private money that mother has saved over the years. As long as you and Yuan'er live a good life in the future, mother will give all her money to you, and mother will be willing to do so."

After the shock just now, Xiao Rong had calmed down. She was not moved by Rong Enqing's sincere words. Instead, she curled her lips in disdain, "How much money can my aunt have? After the division of the family property today, the Marquis' Mansion still has 100,000 taels of silver in cash! Not to mention the farms, shops and the like. Humph, if Yunhai can become the Marquis..."

Xiao Rong's voice wasn't very loud, but there were only three of them in the room, so Rong Enqing could easily hear it.

She frowned slightly and glanced at Xiao Rong's expression carefully, but she saw that there was no joy or gratitude on her face and in her eyes, only resentment and resentment.

At this moment, Rong Enqing felt a pang in his heart. Could a young Rong like this really lead a good life for the fourth room after the separation of the mansion?

Rong Enqing was worried and lost his patience to talk to the two men. After promising to subsidize them with 30,000 taels, he hastily sent them back to pack their things.

After seeing the two off, Rong Enqing immediately called for Butler Li.

The property was divided and the useless servants were dealt with, but there were too many servants to be dealt with, and in a short while, many places in the mansion would be in chaos.

"Butler Li, what's the situation in the mansion now?"

"Madam, overall everything is fine. The servants in each room have not changed much, so each room is relatively stable. However, Qinghui Hall may be short of staff in the next few days.

"Except for the five people who were sent to follow the young marquis, I sent the rest to the farm. The old lady also left only five maids to serve the old lady. So, there are only five maids in Qinghui Hall at present.

"Everywhere in the mansion is being put in order now, preparing to move, so it may be difficult to bring people in for a while.

"Madam, would you like me to find you a few clever servants from the outer courtyard to serve you for a while?"
