The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 50

Yan Yan’s words made Xue’s eyes brighten, “Yes, search Zi Yuxuan, you didn’t bring anything when you came in, the extra money is naturally the silver of the greedy father.”

At this moment she also noticed that the three girls were obviously unhappy looking for Aunt Pei. Since the goals are the same, she doesn’t mind following the pawn.

This is the disadvantage of an unjustified butler. If you manage it well, naturally no one will say that you will be singled out if it is not good. If you change to the housekeeper of Shen Yiyao, even if you suspect that she is greedy for her father-in-law’s money, no one will dare to say to search for her residence.

But Aunt Pei is different, her concubine’s background, even her expensive concubine, her status is much lower. Especially she did not marry back then, this is a good handle.

Aunt Pei was already going crazy at the moment, and she said hysterically: “Why do you want to search for my place?” She cried to the old lady again: “Aunty, don’t care, let them bully their niece?”

Before the old lady spoke, Yan Yan spoke again, “The grandmother naturally knows that you are her niece or a dear, but in order to calm everyone’s doubts, how could grandmother favor you.”

The words were blocked so that the old lady couldn’t say anything.

She is also very anxious at the moment, but the words are all squeezed. What can she say? Doesn’t she mean that she wants to favor her niece when she speaks?

Looking at the eyes of Xue and Chen looking at her again, the old lady sighed: “Yu Jin, you are sitting upright, don’t be afraid. These young people are kind to you, and they have also rewarded you a lot. As long as it’s within this range, no one can take the money from the greedy father to talk about it, my aunt promises you.”

The next few sentences are also for others to hear. Within an appropriate range, even if Pei Yujin really gets her own pockets, as long as the number is not large, it’s fine. Everyone understands the truth that there is no fish when the water is clear, and it can be regarded as a pill for Aunt Pei.

But how can Aunt Pei feel at ease?

The old lady thought it was Aunt Pei, even if she was greedy, she wouldn’t be a lot, but the key is a lot! Especially the old lady’s words also acquiesced to let people search Ziyuxuan.

Aunt Pei now has the desire to die. She can only hope that the private rooms she hid will not be discovered. Fortunately, she is hidden enough and only she knows the place.

The thing is certain, the next thing is to send people to search Ziyuxuan. The old lady must send people here. In order to dispel the doubts of the big room and three rooms, the two rooms will also have to leave. Yan Yan has always been overbearing, so Mama Zou will also supervise.

Aunt Pei hates Yan Yan to death now. She says she is a junior who is not qualified. Yan Yan snorted and said that since she built a small kitchen in Ningxiang Pavilion, she hadn’t set aside a special case for a long time. I didn’t mention it, but now everyone suspects that Aunt Pei is greedy for silver, she naturally doubts whether the sub-laws of Ningxiang Pavilion have been deducted for Aunt Pei for personal use.

The crowd was in an uproar, and the old lady’s eyes were condemned.

She can’t afford to provoke this little ancestor. Where did Aunt Pei dare to deduct the case of Ningxiang Pavilion? !

In fact, before this matter has to be said, Yan Yan just returned to the house and hit Aunt Pei in the face one after another. She couldn’t swallow this breath, so she wanted to vent her anger. Seeing that Ningxiang Pavilion had built a small kitchen, and had not gone to the large kitchen to collect daily ingredients, he deducted the money that should have been allocated to Ningxiang Pavilion to subsidize daily meals.

In the entire Weiyuan Hou Mansion, the owners of each house eat their meals from the large kitchen. If they want to eat dessert or something, there are also small kitchens in their respective yards to make, but in general, the large kitchen is responsible for the entire mansion. The daily food of the masters here.

The above is bought by the head of the silver. If you don’t eat it in the big kitchen, you can go to the big kitchen to pick up the ingredients, or you can discount the silver. Ningxiang Pavilion didn’t mention it, and the big kitchen pretended to be silly, so Aunt Pei hit the middle and deducted it.

When Yan Yan came to look for it, she could naturally push it to the bottom easily. The following can also be said that the ingredients are prepared, but no one at Ningxiang Pavilion came to pick it up, and Yan Yan could only suffer a dumb loss.

Aunt Pei had a very simple idea. She wanted to see the three girls who had always been arrogant and begged her. Who knew that Yan Yan was too lazy to pay attention to her, and she kept this matter there.

At this time, Yan Yan brought it out, no less than the last straw that crushed the camel.

You even dare to deduct the money for meals from the girl you are a direct daughter. Needless to say, you must be greedy for the money in the public!

Everyone blamed everyone, including the old lady. Aunt Pei naturally pushed to the big kitchen, but there were all kinds of things before, and no one would listen to her explanation.

Taking advantage of the chaos at this moment, Fangcui, who had been standing in the corner of the room, stepped back, Yan Yan cast a look at Mei Xiang, and Mei Xiang rushed over to grab her.

“Where do you go? The master let you go?”

Yan Yan seemed to smile, “This is Aunt Pei’s maid, Fangcui, where are you going? In order to show Aunt Pei’s innocence, not the person appointed by the master, no one is allowed to go out for the time being.”

As soon as this remark came out, the people who were secretly ready to move were honest.

The Xue family ordered two of the people he had brought, and Chen ordered two. Together with the mother Zou beside Yan Yan and the mother Zhao beside the old lady, several people went to Zi Yuxuan formidable.

The maid came up and exchanged tea for several masters. Yan Yan and Yan Mo are juniors, so naturally they are not qualified to sit in the hall and drink tea in front of the old lady. The type of fruit, the two leisurely drink tea and other letters.

Yan Yan smiled and squeezed her little brother’s little fleshy face recently, “You little villain.”

A Mo smiled shyly, grabbed a piece of cakes from the plate and ate it.

This is in Rong’an Hall. You can’t speak too much, as long as two people understand the meaning inside.

After almost half an hour, Mother Zhao returned with a group of people in a mighty and mighty manner, and brought seven or eight mahogany boxes over. Mother Zou also carried a small black wooden box in her arms.

There was also Shen Yiyao. It turned out that Mother Zhao went to search for Zi Yuxuan. Aunt Pei’s maid stopped her. One of them sneaked out to find Shen Yiyao in the past. He heard that it was the death of the old lady, but Shen Yiyao did not stop him. , But follow the situation.

On the way, Shen Yiyao also learned about the specific situation. After entering, there was condemnation in Aunt Pei’s eyes.

Aunt Pei shuddered when she saw the black lacquered box and collapsed to the ground, her face as gray as death. At this time, everyone present had no time to pay attention to her, their eyes were all placed on the mahogany boxes.

Those boxes were so full that they couldn’t cover them. Xue’s people stepped forward and opened them one by one, and everyone was in an uproar.

Mother Zhao scowled and reported: “Because there was no clear goal, the few people who went with it suggested that as long as it was not suitable for the aunt’s placement, they would search it out, and all of them are here.”

This mother Zhao is a genius, she led the way, and the old lady gave her orders again, thinking about excusing herself.

Yan Yan glanced at the pile of things and thought, this time Aunt Pei not only wanted to hate Mama Zhao, but even the old lady could not escape. She went to see Aunt Pei’s face again, her face turned pale with distress.

Xue’s face seemed excited, “Mother, take a good look at how much this Auntie Pei has gotten into her pocket.”

There are all kinds of precious ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, jade, cloth, etc. in these boxes. One of the boxes is covered with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, making people blind. Such a thing, let alone Aunt Pei, even the Xue family and the Chen family do not have it, it is really prickly.

Mother Zou stepped forward and said: “The slave and maid brought people from a secret place under Aunt Pei’s bed and found this small wooden box, which contained more than 200 taels of gold ingots, more than 500 taels of silver, and silver tickets. One stack, the number is about twelve thousand or two.”

When this remark came out, it was even more uproar.

The old lady’s face was as black as ink, panting a few times, and slapped Dike in anger: “What do you say Aunt Pei!”

Okay! She thought she had pressed the bottom of the box, and went to her with all the money!

Sitting on the ground, Aunt Pei was pale and distraught, “There are some things here that Master Hou rewarded her concubine, and Master Hou put the banknote here to her concubine.”

Xue sneered, the old lady hurriedly glanced at Shen Yiyao, and angrily condemned: “You are really brave, and you went to pick Ting’er. Ting’er always used money from the account room. Where did you put so much money in your place. You. It’s my niece. I have always believed in more than you. Now it seems that you have really disappointed me. Not only did I learn to fill my pockets, but I also learned not to think about myself and to slap others.”

Aunt Pei’s face froze, thinking of the relationship, she simply pretended to cry and did not speak.

“Mother, don’t be angry. Fortunately, this silverfish was found today.”

The Xue family and the Chen family came forward to comfort them, and their words were faintly gloating.

But Aunt Pei was right. Some jade ornaments, jewelry, fabrics and the like were indeed appreciated by others, such as Yan Ting, old ladies, and Shen Yiyao. But I know that it is impossible for others to reward her for everything. Who can reward her with so many things, these things add up enough to marry a few daughters.

Large families in the capital married their daughters to dowry, and the wealth ranged from 20,000 to 30,000 silver, and some were only a few thousand taels. Xue’s dowry added up to only 5,000 taels. At this time, seeing Aunt Pei had so many “private houses”, his eyes were red.

At this time, Mother Zou took out an account book, “When I got the account book, the slave and maid looked through it. All the items recorded on it were from the first book of Ziyuxuan. It should have been used by Aunt Pei to record her personal belongings. There are very few records, but not others. Others are on this account book—”

She took out another account book, which was Aunt Pei’s real account book, and it was all used to record things that were not suitable for book creation.

What is not suitable for bookmaking? That must be a shameful object! Have learned to make two books! Xue looked bitterly at Aunt Pei.

People have nothing but others, and that naturally attracts people’s hatred, especially thinking that there are also big houses in these things!

Yan Yan showed a smile of admiration. Mother Zou stepped forward to give the account book. When passing by the Xue family, she accidentally took the account book off by the Xue family.

She seemed to be taken aback, bowed, and stepped back.

Xue was heartbroken and waved his account book, “This is all from our private pockets. Let’s count it directly on the spot. I want to see how much money she has greeted in the past few years. ”

Xue’s anger interrupted the old lady’s calculations.

Let alone the Xue family, the Chen family is also very curious. The two of them took care of themselves and ordered several women to calculate separately, and found a few literate maids to enter the book and account, and then calculated on the spot.

It was very slow to proceed due to the classification and valuation of the book. But because it was checking other people’s things, everyone didn’t feel bored, but was full of interest. The old lady’s complexion was not obvious, she kept her eyes half closed, and couldn’t see how she really thought.

Yan Yan watched leisurely, just like watching a show.

Suddenly, her eyes flashed and she stood up abruptly. Her behavior was so abrupt that everyone in the hall looked at her. Regardless of her, she stepped forward quickly, pushed a woman away, and drew a step from the pile of jewelry.

This step is extremely eye-catching, the dazzling emerald, the brightly colored ruby, and even more rare is the ruby ​​held in the mouth of the Luan bird, which is the size of a thumb nail, and the workmanship is extremely exquisite. Lifelike.

It is a red gold tired silk inlaid with ruby ​​double Luan dotted and swayed!

Yan Yan’s expression was extremely strange, she even sneered, she had always looked calm and gentle since she entered Rong’an Hall, suddenly becoming fierce.

“Okay, great!”?
