Chapter 777: The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court(2/2)
The financial strength of such a family is evident from the fact that it can support a war.
Thinking of this, I smiled faintly: "Yes."
As the head wife of the Yan family, in addition to the official expenditure of 500 taels of silver per month as normal expenses, she also has an annual allowance of 5,000 taels for clothing, shoes, socks, jewelry, hair oil, powder, and various gadgets.
Even those high-ranking officials in the capital may not have such an income, but compared to my mother's property, it is just a drop in the bucket. As the head wife of the Yan family, at the end of each year, she can also receive 20% of all profits of the Yan family.
It is said that this is a family rule set by the first generation of the Yan family head, in order to ensure the transcendent status of the head wife of each generation of head of the family. Even if they are not favored, dividends are indispensable. And those concubines, no matter how favored they are, will not get the head wife.
Such dividends.
Therefore, I have not calculated how much money my mother has, but I also know that it is an unimaginable amount of wealth.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sneer.
If it hadn't been for this, there wouldn't have been such a ridiculous thing as the new wife coming in to make it big, and the original wife becoming a side wife.
Looking at my sneer, Uncle Ai whispered: "Miss?"
I said: "Indeed, it stands to reason that before the new wife came in, my mother should have accumulated an astonishing amount of wealth. It can even be said that she is as rich as the country. But where did that money go?"
Even if she later became a side house and lost those benefits, the money she had received before was still there. In my memory, she had never been a spendthrift. Before the new wife came in, her personal life was quite simple.
