The Princess Consort was very busy, as the upbringing of her two sons already left her with little time for anything else. Matters such as the income from the estate and the profits from the shops were left to the steward of the Prince's Mansion to manage.
She had no desire to interfere, nor did she care to.
Fu Gui's mouth twitched as he tried to persuade her, "Princess Consort, these matters concern the family affairs of the Prince's Mansion. How can an outsider like me meddle in them for long?"
In other noble families, the matriarch would oversee the household affairs, managing the family's finances, properties, and personnel, as well as planning the income and expenses.
But the Princess of Yan paid little attention to such matters. Only when her own interests were involved would she intervene slightly.
Fu Gui, with his aging body, bore the heavy responsibilities of the Prince's Mansion. He was exhausted, and his monthly allowance hadn't even increased!
