My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Because the third branch has long wanted to split up the family business.

In addition, Lu Zhenzhen's accounting method was also implemented in the Lan family's courtyard.

So once you start, you just need to count the items according to the registration in the booklet, pack them into boxes and seal them.

These are all handled by a few of his trusted subordinates.

Lan, Lu Zhenzhen and Fu Zhiyi have now decided where they will live, and the only thing left is who to take with them.

In addition to the servants from the third house, we must bring some other people with us, and it would be best if we take the whole family with us.

According to Lu Zhenzhen and Lan, there were simply too many people serving in the Marquis' Mansion, and many of them were there just for the sake of a title.

However, the Marquis's Mansion needs to be impressive, and some airs cannot be lost.

But after they separated from the family, they were just an ordinary official family and did not need so many people to maintain their reputation.

Therefore, everyone feels that there is no need for so many people to serve.

He coldly picked out several families that looked good in the past and made a list.

Lu Zhenzhen took the list and went to Mrs. Hu to ask for the indenture.

When we arrived at Hu's Qinglan Courtyard, Hu was also involved in a lawsuit.

It is a foregone conclusion that the second and third rooms will move out.

They haven't moved out yet these few days, and their daily expenses are still paid by the main house. Mrs. Hu doesn't care about this small amount of money.

He was just looking at the book with worry. After the second and third wives moved out, only their first wife, the old marquis, and the old lady were left in the mansion.

At most, there are about ten masters.

There are hundreds of registered servants in the mansion, and the second and third houses can only take a limited number of people away.

The remaining people have to serve these ten or so masters, so there are too many people and too little work to do.

That is to say, we have to use money to support so many idle people.

When Mrs. Hu did a rough calculation, she felt so heartbroken.

Although she knew that the Marquisate would be handed over to her and Fu Zhijian, the eldest wife was in charge after all. She just thought that the Marquisate would belong to them in the future and didn't think much about it.

Now the household expenses are in my hands, and every ounce of silver I spend is my own money!

So when she saw Lu Zhenzhen coming in, Mrs. Hu's eyes lit up and she warmly welcomed her in.

Hearing Lu Zhenzhen asking for someone, he generously pushed the list in front of Lu Zhenzhen and said, "Pick any one you want."

I just hope Lu Zhenzhen can pick a few more families to go with, so that I can spend less money.

Lu Zhenzhen smiled and picked out herself, the Lan family, and several families that Fu Zhiyi had coldly chosen in the past.

In addition to his own dowry, Lan's dowry included people from five families.

Mrs. Hu looked at the five families that Lu Zhenzhen had selected, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Even though the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the third family didn't usually take care of things, they were both people who knew what was going on.

The five families selected here may seem insignificant on weekdays, but they are not the kind of people who are cunning and deceitful.

Moreover, the people in these rooms are neither from the first room nor the second room. Although there are daughters in both rooms, they are all maids who do rough work.

This not only avoided embarrassment for Mrs. Hu, but also made it clear to her that she didn't want to have too many servants involved with the two houses.

But there are only five families, and the number of people selected is too small.

Mrs. Hu couldn't help but say, "How can we have enough people with just these few families? It won't hurt to pick a few more, so that when we need people, we won't be short of people. These are all family-born children, so they are more reliable than those bought from outside."

This is indeed a kind intention of Mrs. Hu. Home-made products are definitely more reliable than those bought outside, and they are safer to use.

Lu Zhenzhen shook her head. "If we move out, there will only be four masters at most. Add in my dowry and our wife's dowry, and these few people are enough! If there are more, the yard will be too full! Besides, why do we need so many people?"

Mrs. Hu couldn't persuade him any further.

He promptly sent someone to collect the indentures according to the names on the list.

He approached Lu Zhenzhen, took her hand, and sighed, "I thought we could live in the same mansion for at least ten years, but I never thought—"

Whether from the bottom of their hearts or from the perspective of interests, dividing the family is beneficial to Hu and Fu Zhijian.

Since she had gained benefits, it was naturally difficult for her to say anything bad about the old marquis and the old lady, otherwise it would be too shameless.

However, she really couldn't bear to leave her two sisters-in-law, Lu Zhenzhen and Sun.

After all, there are not many sisters-in-law like Sun and Lu Zhenzhen in the whole capital who do not compete with her for the power of housekeeper and can even help her.

We used to live in the same house, and we saw each other every day, so we developed a close relationship.

After the separation, we can only see each other during the holidays, and I'm afraid our relationship will become distant.

What's more, she is not stupid. She can see that after the quarrel between the third and first wives, it will probably be a matter of face in the future.

It's the second branch. Although they seemed quiet before, they had already thought about splitting up the family business.

From now on, if I want to have fun on the farm like before, it can only be done in my dreams.

Lu Zhenzhen knew what Hu was lamenting, and she also knew that Hu and Fu Zhijian were innocent in this farce.

But they are the vested interests, so Lu Zhenzhen can't say she is angry with them, nor does she want to comfort them for the time being.

After all, judging from the results, the third branch of their family is the real victim. We can't expect the victims to comfort the vested interests, right?

Moreover, there is the old marquis and the eldest master standing in the middle. If the brothers want to get along like before, it depends on Fu Zhijian's performance.

At least now, Lu Zhenzhen's attitude must be made clear.

So he just smiled and said a few polite words: "We've just separated, not severed our relationship. We'll naturally meet up when we're free. Why bother making it sound like we'll never see each other again?"

Hu smiled bitterly and said a few polite words to Lu Zhenzhen.

Although the atmosphere didn't cool down, it was not as intimate as before.

When the servant brought the indenture, Lu Zhenzhen checked it one by one. After confirming that it was correct, she stood up and said goodbye.

Mrs. Hu sent the person to the gate of the yard, and watched Lu Zhenzhen walk away reluctantly before she sighed.

Even though the girl next to him knew what was going on, she didn't dare to step forward to persuade him.

We can only wait for Hu to figure it out himself.

Lu Zhenzhen took the indenture back to the third house and was discussing with Lan how to arrange for these people after they arrived at the new house.

The third master returned triumphantly with his men, dragging large and small boxes.

As soon as he entered the main room, he ordered the maid to pour tea.

Because the Third Master has been behaving well recently, the maids and servants in the main house have started to like him more.

It was considered attentive to pour hot tea.

The Third Master held onto his teacup without drinking, and began to boast about his great achievements today: "Humph, if I don't go and check it out myself today, those old guys in the warehouse will try to add sand to the things they give us!"
