Chapter 821 Donations


The big girl beside Lu Jiao immediately responded and ordered a few little girls to go to each house to see the situation.The little girl of the Xie family just left on the front foot, and the old lady of the Zhaoguo Mansion on the back foot, the old lady of the Chengde Houfu, and the people from the Nanyang Houfu came over in a big way.Lu Jiao heard the movement outside the door, and immediately walked out to greet the ladies of the families, and said with a smile while greeting them."

Old Madam Zhao, Old Madam Li, Old Madam Hua, you have something to delay."

The old lady of Zhao Guogong's Mansion and the old lady of Zhongyong Houfu were so angry that they were about to vomit blood, everyone is a human spirit, Lu Jiao's previous appearance, wasn't it just to force them to come over?

Isn't that a fake now?

But they couldn't veto her words, so they had to respond with a smile: "Mrs.

Xie is right." ”A group of people entered, and many ladies in the lobby stood up to greet Mrs.

Zhao, Mrs.

Li, Mrs.

Hua, etc.Mrs.

Pei, County Lord Wen'an, and the others just sat and greeted them, and did not leave.The Pei family was originally a neutral faction, but His Majesty gave the eldest granddaughter of their family to King Ming as the princess of Ming, so their Pei family became a sure party of King Ming, and they couldn't veto this if they wanted to.So the Pei family and Lu Jiao are people on the same front, today Lu Jiao held a fundraising event, the Pei family naturally responded, Zhao Guogong Mansion and Zhongyong Houfu and Nanyang Houfu did not give Lu Jiao face, that is, they did not give face to the Pei family.Mrs.

Pei said to Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li and Mrs.

Hua, "Are you not in good health?"

Delay until now, if you are not feeling well, it is right to come early, Jiaojiao is a miracle doctor, and the medicine is kept until the disease is removed. ”Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li and Mrs.

Hua listened to Mrs.

Pei's words, twitched the corners of their mouths fiercely, and finally said unhappily: "There is something at home that has been delayed for a while. ”After the words fell, Old Madam Zhao looked at the Chen family who had just been summoned to Beijing by His Majesty and said."

Yo, isn't this Old Madam Chen?

Is my sister in good health?

”Mrs.

Chen smiled and said that everything was fine.Old Madam Zhao continued to speak: "Looking at the old sister's appearance, you know that she is a philanthropic person, and the rumors that came out of the capital before should have nothing to do with the old sister, maybe who arranged it." ”Although it was not directly mentioned that Lu Jiao abused the rumors of the second prince, it was also pointed out in and out of the words, and the people on the scene basically understood that she said this on purpose, just to embarrass Lu Jiao, many people subconsciously looked at Lu Jiao.Lu Jiao was not annoyed at all, her expression was indescribably calm, those things were not done by her, what was she annoyed about, but today she must make the Zhao family and the Li family bleed.Lu Jiao thought, paced to the middle of the hall, clapped her hands, and everyone quieted down and looked at her together."

The reason why we gathered here today is because there was an avalanche in the north not long ago, causing the people to wander and lose their places, everyone knows that the climate in the north is cold, the winter is long, and the next few months need to rely on the imperial court to send relief food, as well as cold clothing, if the imperial court can not send these things smoothly, this winter, the north will be killed and injured countless times.""

Although the Great Zhou has a full treasury and abundant money, the imperial court needs to raise a lot of soldiers and horses, so it is not a way to do it, so I thought of an idea, that is, our families will donate some money to help the people of the north to tide over this difficulty.""

Today's fundraising event is a fundraiser, you should have heard of it, Your Majesty also agreed with this move, and encouraged us to do so, so I hope that each family has the ability to contribute more, and those who are not able to contribute less, do their best."

Lu Jiao's words fell, and the people of the Zhao Guogong Mansion and the Zhongyong Houfu and other families were unhappy.Several people cried out and said, "How can we have the money to donate?"

A large family needs a lot of silver for food and housing, how can you be like Mrs.

Xie, who has opened three major workshops and engaged in beauty clubs, you can make money, but we can't. ”"Yes, Mrs.

Xie is so profitable, it's better to donate more money to the people of the Northland."

The old lady of Zhao Guogong's Mansion said directly: "Mrs.

Xie, this should be done by the queen, right?"

As a courtier's wife, how can you stretch your hands so long?

”This time, the county lord of Wen'an answered: "Mrs.

Zhao, the queen is very busy taking care of the harem of Nuoda, where do we have time to do such a trivial matter, can't we handle this matter for the queen?"

What's more, this matter is what Your Majesty has clearly said to do, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can enter the palace and ask Your Majesty for an explanation. ”Mrs.

Zhao was stunned and didn't speak for a long time.Lu Jiao looked at Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li with a smile and said, "I don't know how much silver Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li plan to donate?"

The Zhao family and the Li family are the top magnates of my Great Zhou, and the old lady Zhao and the old lady Li are the models of the noble ladies of the family, and the queen mother and the queen mother are respectively in the family, you are the focus of all the courtiers and the people. ”Lu Jiao raised the Zhao family and the Li family high, it depends on how much you donate, and if you donate less, I am afraid that it will cause gossip.The old faces of Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li were particularly ugly.Although the Zhao family has a big business, because of the military power, sometimes when the imperial court is not fully paid, the family has to fill it with money, and then the Zhao family has to interact with various magnates, and they have to send money to the palace to give the queen mother a little, and the money in the family is really not as much as imagined.Therefore, Mrs.

Zhao was reluctant to donate money, and Mrs.

Li next to her was not very willing to donate money.The Li family provides for a queen and also for the king, they are short of money, so they look for them, where do they get the money to donate to the victims.But now that Lu Jiao has lifted them so high, it is impossible for them not to donate, if they don't donate, they will attract laughter from people inside and outside the capital.So Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li gritted their teeth and said, "Okay, my family will donate five thousand taels." ”"Our family also donated 5,000 taels."

Lu Jiao pretended to be stunned and looked at Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li: "It stands to reason that Mrs.

Zhao and Mrs.

Li donate as much as you want, but as the queen mother's mother and the queen's mother's family, it doesn't seem good if you donate less than others, of course, I am thinking about the queen mother and the queen mother, if the two old ladies don't care, then just the two." ”Lu Jiao's face was full of thoughts for the queen mother and the queen mother, and she almost didn't make the two women vomit blood.However, the two of them couldn't show it, so they had to grit their teeth and ask Lu Jiao: "Then how much did others donate?"

”"I don't know about others, but I plan to donate 20,000 taels of silver tickets."

Lu Jiao herself wanted to donate more, and she thought about donating 50,000 taels before, but then she thought of Xie Yunjin's words to tell herself, to keep a low profile in the capital, she was not afraid that Xiao Yu would worry about her or anything, she was afraid that Xiao Yu was worried that she would save her reputation for the Xie family, so it was better to keep a low profile, and this time she decided to donate 20,000 taels of silver tickets.Lu Jiao's words fell, and then the county lord of Wen'an spoke: "Our family also donated 20,000 taels." ”Mrs.

Pei also spoke: "Although our family is poor, we can still get this money, so donate 20,000 taels." ”
