On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 34 Eat everything inside and outside
"Niannian, you..."
Jiang Nian looked at Jiang Dexuan and said, "Second uncle, my cousins have grown up now. It's time for them to go to school. I happen to know a teacher. If you are willing, I will send someone to meet them in a couple of days."
Jiang Dexuan also wanted his child to learn to read and write, but...
"Don't worry, Uncle. I will pay for your cousins' education."
"Niannian, absolutely not. If my family finds out..."
"Don't worry, Uncle. I will have the teacher come home and no one else will know."
Although the Jiang family is not a wealthy family, their ancestors were all officials. If it weren't for her grandfather favoring his concubine and neglecting his wife, and her grandmother not being able to tolerate the legitimate son, her second uncle would have also pursued a career in the government. Wouldn't he be better than her stupid father?
But now her second uncle probably no longer has the intention to do so, so she can only train her cousin.
"Niannian, actually you don't have to... We are all fine now."
"Uncle, my cousins are still young, just at the age to go to school. Don't you teach them to read every day at home?"
Jiang Dexuan had been educated before. Because he was well-educated and was loved by his teacher, it was because she was afraid that her son would be overshadowed that she later did not allow him to continue his studies.
Although we can’t afford to send our children to school nowadays, we can’t let our children be blind.
"Second Uncle, you are the legitimate son of the Jiang family. Now the entire Jiang family has your share. Are you willing to live on the land in this farm for the rest of your life?"
Jiang Dexuan didn't say anything, so Jiang Nian continued, "If your cousin is a good person, you and Second Aunt will be able to enjoy the good life in the future, right?"
In her previous life, before she got married, her second uncle came.
She just couldn't get in, and she only found out about it later.
But at that time she was busy with her marriage and had no time to ask more questions.
"It's settled. People will be here in two days."
Coming out of the house, Jiang Lan ran out with her brother, calling out, "Cousin."
After saying that, he knelt down in front of her.
"Cousin, thank you." After saying that, he kowtowed to her.
To be honest, the siblings had no good feelings towards the Jiang family. Although they no longer remembered what happened in their childhood, they hated the Jiang family because they enjoyed a good life in the city while her parents suffered in the farm.
But she didn't expect that her cousin would be willing to support her brother's education. Jiang Lan knew that this cousin was different from the other cousins in the Jiang family.
Jiang Nian stepped forward and helped the two of them up: "Hurry up, we are all family, there is no need to say this."
Although Jiang Lan was young, she was beautiful. In her previous life, she was noticed by Feng.
At that time, the second branch of the Jiang family was not doing well, and Feng wanted to arrange a marriage for her nephew, and she also got the permission of Old Lady Jiang. She knew about this, but she just heard that the two were already engaged.
Later it was discovered that it was Feng's nephew who had defiled Jiang Lan, and that was why the two got married.
However, that should be two years later, but Jiang Nian still instructed: "Sister Lan, if other people from the Jiang family come, you go to this place to deliver the message. Feng has bad intentions, you have to protect yourself." As he said that, he handed her the note in his sleeve.
Although Jiang Lan didn't know what Jiang Nian meant, she nodded: "Don't worry, cousin, I'll remember it."
Jiang Mansion.
Aunt Liu brought Mother Zhang, followed by a few followers, and went to Haitang Courtyard together.
Feng was already upset because of what had happened in the past few days, and when she saw a large group of people coming in, she became even more upset.
Aunt Liu was very respectful: "How are you these days, sister?"
There was an old lady named Jiang in the mansion. After all, Feng was her niece, so she still remembered her. So, although she was under house arrest, she could go wherever she wanted without any restrictions, and she had no shortage of food, clothing, or other necessities.
Feng glared at Liu fiercely: "Don't think that just because the old lady lets you be the head of the household, you can ride on my head."
Liu smiled gently: "Sister, you misunderstood. Although I have the old lady's support, I am not as good as you."
The last thing Liu would do is to vent her anger with an argument. Although it is not an appropriate description, the eldest girl said that the biting dog does not bark, but she, Feng, will cry one day.
"I came here today on the orders of the old lady to hand over the accounts and the indentures to my sister."
Feng was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood and her teeth were almost broken.
In the past few days, Liu has been in charge of all the affairs in the mansion. I had thought before that I would just let Liu take charge temporarily, but I didn't expect that today, the old lady was determined to take over the power of housekeeper.
Feng's heart bleeds at the thought of Lin's huge dowry being handed over to someone else.
Seeing Feng sitting there motionless, Madam Zhang beside her was displeased, "Madam Feng, please hurry up, I still have to go and give the old lady a reply."
Feng stood up, flicked her sleeves, and walked towards the warehouse.
Feng handed over the key reluctantly and was about to leave as soon as she entered, but was stopped by Aunt Liu.
"Wait a minute, sister. Let's wait until we've finished inventory before we leave. If the account books don't match... you'll have to pay for everything."
"you!"
After saying this, I felt guilty instantly.
She has been giving a lot of financial support to her mother's family over the years. Although Old Madam Jiang and her mother are sisters, they are not born of the same mother.
The old lady is taking care of the Jiang family, so how could she allow the money in the mansion to be given to outsiders?
After the group finished their meal, Aunt Liu took everyone back to Shou'an Hall.
Handing over the old and new account books, Aunt Liu said, "Old Madam, here are the accounts, please take a look."
Old Madam Jiang took the account book and took a look at it, and soon realized something was wrong.
"Why are there so many missing from this?"
"You've noticed it too?" Then she looked at Mother Zhang, "It's hard for me to explain this matter, so let Mother Zhang speak."
When Madam Zhang pointed out these accounts, she was also shocked and dared not hide it. "Old lady, the items in the warehouse don't match the account books. A full ten thousand taels of silver are missing."
"How many?!"
Even the old lady was so shocked by the number that she was speechless.
"Old lady, this belongs to our Jiang family after all. You need to find out where the money went." Liu said as she helped her calm down.
Is there any need to ask? Feng has been in charge of the family for so many years, where could all this money go?
"What a traitor! I asked her to be the housekeeper, but she ended up raising a thief! Go, call that person over here!"
......
When Jiang Nian returned home, he heard that Feng had been scolded by Old Madam Jiang again. After asking, he found out that Feng had used all the family money to subsidize her parents' home.
The old lady was furious and ordered her to return the money. If she didn't, she would kick her out.
"This concubine Feng is really confused. Even if she wants to subsidize her parents' family, she has to know her limits. She is really willing to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver." Baozhu scolded.
"That was my mother's dowry. Why would she be reluctant to give it up?" If it weren't for her mother's dowry, could the Jiang family live the life they have today?
Amber brought the tea and said softly, "But now that the old lady knows, the money can definitely be recovered."
"Let the old lady take care of this matter, Baozhu. Ask your cousin to send the old man we met last time to your second uncle's farm. Also..."
As she was speaking, Ping An came in from outside, "Miss, Cui Er from the second lady's side is here."
"Let her in."
Cui Er walked in timidly and knelt down directly: "Big girl."
Jiang Nian saw that she was not in good condition, so he asked, "Did she hit you again?"
Cui'er bit her lip and said nothing. Jiang Nian asked Baozhu to give her the medicine and said calmly, "Don't worry, as long as you work hard for me, I will do what I promised you."
