The old lady nodded in agreement, and Minglan continued, "I think it is better to set the cost of flowers in each room directly. The monthly cost is within the number. The flower house will be purchased according to the meaning of the fourth room. No need to ask the mother's intention, all agree. If it exceeds the price, then you can only pay it out of your own pocket. But if the flowers you bought in the month are not more than the price, let the mother convert it into silver and give it to the aunt and the others at the beginning of next month. This will also seem fair. Grandma, what do you think?"

Before the old lady could speak, the third wife smiled and said, "I think Minglan has a good idea. I think everyone will cherish flowers more if they have such regulations."

The third wife loves flowers and cherishes flowers. The same flowers can be kept in the fourth room for three months, and she can live in the third room for at least half a year.

The fourth wife thought about it and smiled, "I think this idea is good, too."

She has no special love for flowers, but every time the eldest wife buys rare flowers to give to others, she feels that it is too much of a loss to not have one. It is a favor to give it out, and it is not a waste of money if you don’t give it away.

The third wife was also dissatisfied with the eldest wife's approach, but she had a good relationship with Mu. She knew that the old lady felt that the garden was spending too much, so she wanted to buy it again, and Mu would add frost to the snow.

Only the eldest lady had a cold face and didn't want to agree, but everyone else nodded, and her opinions were not that important.

The old lady also thought it was feasible and said, "Then determine the amount is appropriate."

Minglan smiled and said, "Grandma, you said the monthly cost of the garden is almost the same. If you deduct the large garden, you can just give it to four rooms on average."

"It cannot exceed one thousand five hundred taels."

Minglan smiled and said, "Then you will set a thousand five hundred taels, and the big garden will deduct 600 taels for spare, 900 and 4 rooms and Changsongyuan will be divided equally. Aunt San and Aunt Si, you think it's enough."

The third wife smiled and said, "Enough."

She spent less than twenty taels a month, and her fourth wife felt that the income of one hundred taels a month was not enough.

The eldest wife said, "One hundred and eighty taels are not bad, but if you really buy rare flowers and gifts, you're afraid you can't buy a pot."

Ming Lan smiled and said, "In fact, there are two types of gifts. One is to give it to yourself, and the other is to give it to your own house. Of course, you will pay it out of your own house. If you give it to your own house, you should leave the account of the public. You can't mess around."

The ability of the eldest wife is to use the money from public to private, and to give the big house a favor.

The old lady looked at Ming Lan more and more appreciative. She was sensible and filial. As a result, Mu became much more relaxed and said, "Let's do it like this in the future."

Mu sat aside and didn't say anything. At this moment, she asked, "If a banquet was held in a month, six hundred taels would not be enough. At that time, money was allocated from the public."

Ming Lan said, "The mansion doesn't hold a few banquets a year. Even if the banquet is held, the expenses will be calculated and then the money will be taken from the public. The aunt always takes care of it. My mother will use 600 taels first. If it is not enough, people can just write down what the garden is missing and how much it needs, and just write down the number to the aunt."

From beginning to end, there was nothing to do with the eldest lady. Apart from depression, I regret not mentioning pine nut scales, so that Minglan could take advantage of the problem.

After Minglan finished speaking, she took her leave without her having anything to do.

Minglan didn't know that after she left, the old lady praised her as a good butler in the future. She was not only fair but also clearly organized, and was much better than Mu.

Mu was ashamed and happy.

Gu Yinlan said, "The second sister is gone, and she didn't say anything about the meeting gift to the fourth girl of the Duke of the Guguo Mansion. Could she go empty-handed?"

Gu Yinlan asked here, and Bizhu asked the same question on the way to Youlan Garden.

"Of course I have to give me something for the first time."

After returning to Liushuang Garden, Minglan entered the study and painted carefully.

Outside the study, the old lady gave a pair of silver bracelets from Bizhu. The maids surrounded her with envy and jealousy.

I still don’t know that Bizhu took advantage of the chaos to steal the gold hairpin, jade bracelet and pearl on the street, otherwise she would be crazy jealous.

Hongying stood far away, holding a tray in her hand, and her lips were almost bleeding.

In a blink of an eye, another day has passed.

After breakfast, Minglan took Bizhu to Changsongyuan.

Today, she is wearing a jade smoke and silk cloud skirt, a cloud bun, a red jade hairpin on her head, and a tassel swaying, echoing the flames and forehead makeup between her eyebrows. Her beautiful eyes are flowing, her peach cheeks are smiling, her elegant and unconventional, and every frown, smile, quiet and moving, she has a spirit of a bell.

The old lady praised Minglan's outfit, "This outfit is good, dignified and elegant, yet playful, but the head is too plain. Fu Dong brought the jade hairpin in my dressing box."

Soon, Fu Dong took the jade hairpin, the old lady took it, and put it on Minglan's hairpin.

The jade hairpin and Minglan wear jade skirt complement each other and add a bit of charm.

Gu Yinlan was on the side, looked at her and said coquettishly, "Grandmother, you can't just care about your second sister. You can also see if there is anything wrong with me."

She swayed her skirt twice, and the butterfly embroidered on her head was about to fly.

She wore a golden begonia peony brocade dress, which was different from Minglan's simple and elegant style, and the colors were grand. In order to suppress her gorgeous clothes, she brought several hairpins on her head. From a distance, it was very beautiful.

But when you look closely, you feel that it is too luxurious. After all, you are not yet in the hair. In addition, although her waist is as thin as a willow, her breasts are not arrogant enough, so she loses her charm.

After seeing this, the old lady took off two golden hairpins, asked the maid to take silk flowers, and picked two crabapple flowers to wear for her hairpins.

This way, it looks much better, but Gu Yinlan is not satisfied. The old lady gave Minglan a jade hairpin, and only two silk flowers were given to her, which was far from the difference.

After sitting for a while, the old lady asked them to set off.

After leaving the second door, a maid wearing a light pink dress was guarding the place with a camellia in her arms. It was the pine nut scale that the eldest wife mentioned yesterday.

Camellia is elegant and quiet, with beautiful shapes, with dark green and shiny leaves, and colorful flowers. It is a treasure of camellia.

Seeing Minglan look at camellia several times, Gu Yinlan was a little proud. She asked, "Although you said you didn't have to bring it, my mother decided to let me take Songzilin to the Duke of the Guguo Mansion. What gift have you prepared?"

Minglan didn't care what she gave, she said lightly, "I just doodled a painting."

Gu Yinlan was despised in her heart. Although her paintings were pretty good, she was really not as good as her. It would be strange if the girls in the Duke's Mansion were rare, so she didn't say more.

Before getting on the carriage, Gu Yinlan also reminded the maid to be careful to protect the flowers and not to knock them.

Inside the carriage, Gu Yinlan kept looking at the bronze mirror. When she passed by the street, Minglan lifted the curtain and looked outside. She counted and found that there were five rice sellers on the street, all of which were booming.

In the past two days, she has been thinking about buying rice. If she doesn't think of a way to deal with it, she will keep thinking, as if she has fallen into a dead end.

Along the way, she was thinking of a solution. Gu Yinlan talked to her, but she didn't pay attention. Finally, Gu Yinlan was annoyed and pushed her, "I'm talking to you."
