Mei Yixuan thought of Mama Ye's maintenance of herself in the past, and she didn't feel good in her heart, so she softened her tone and said gently: "Mama, you know that I have relied on you since I was a child and trusted you, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, to be honest, I am very disappointed and sad with you." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBut the eldest lady and the second lady must know the inside story, if I don't punish it, not only will they look down on me, but I can't treat it as if it didn't happen because of the rules. “

Mama Ye listened to Mei Yixuan's sincere and earnest words, and couldn't help crying in shame: "Woo・・・・・・ it's all the slave's fault, the slave and maid have failed the old lady's great kindness to us and the trust in our family, and the slave and maid really have no face to face the eldest lady・・・・・・"

Seeing Mama Ye's crying snot and tears, Mei Shengjie quietly climbed out of her sister's arms, and held a handkerchief on tiptoe to Mama Ye: "Mama, give!"

Mama Ye looked at the handkerchief Mei Shengjie holding with blurry teary eyes, and suddenly covered her face and cried: "Young master, my young master, the slave is sorry for you・・・・・・!

Mei Shengjie was a little confused, touched his head strangely, and looked at his sister again, he didn't understand what he had done wrong, why did Mama Ye cry even more?

Mei Yixuan sighed, raised her voice slightly, and said, "Okay, don't cry anymore! You let Tong Babsi, father and son come over, I have something to say." “

Mama Ye hurriedly stopped crying and promised to leave.

After about two teas, Mama Ye brought Tong Basi, father and son, over with her. The family of four kowtowed to Mei Yixuan in a proper manner and stood aside honestly, with fear and uneasiness on their faces.

Mei Yixuan didn't expect to come so quickly, and after thinking about it a little, she knew that they must have been waiting at the door of the Mei Mansion in advance. She quietly looked at Tong Basi, father and son who were standing below, and slowly had a plan in her heart.

From the outside, Tong Basi is an honest and well-behaved person. At the age of thirty-five or sixteen, he looks honest and simple, and he is the kind that no one notices when he is thrown in the pile. However, a pair of children are outstanding, maybe they combine the advantages of Mama Ye and him, right?

Tong Yong, that is, Mama Ye's son, is about seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strong aura like sunshine all over his body, without the humility of being a slave at all, but like the son of a certain family.

It's just that at this moment, there is a layer of dark clouds and shame on his face, and some of them are ashamed of themselves in front of Mei Yixuan. After all, he knew a little about his father, and although he didn't understand the law, he also knew that he had a great sin, so he was very worried and worried.

The girl Xiaojuan, thirteen or fourteen years old, is pretty and lovely, and she is a few points better than Chunlan's appearance. She didn't seem to know about her father, but she suddenly came to the deep mansion compound of Meifu and was a little uncomfortable, and her big flexible eyes secretly glanced at Mei Yixuan's sister and brother, and she honestly lowered her eyes and never raised her head again.

Mei Yixuan now understands Tong Basi, such a pair of children must be unwilling to be a slave all their lives, right?

Forget it, for Mama Ye's sake, give them another chance.

Mei Yixuan pondered for a moment and said, "Tong Basi, according to your criminal responsibility, it is very unlikely that your family of four will be guilty of a crime when you report to the government, do you know?"

Tong Basi was so frightened that he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and replied tremblingly: "Yes, the slave ・・・・・・ the slave committed a capital crime, Miss Xie is gracious, spare the life of the slave's family・・・・・・ slave deserves death!"

Mei Yixuan sighed in her heart, how could such a person who was afraid of death dare to embezzle silver taels?

"Okay, get up and talk!" Mei Yixuan was still not used to people kneeling on her, and after drinking Ling Tong Basi up, she asked, "I just looked at the silver taels you wanted, and I can roughly estimate the annual income of the shop." In this way, I will not hold you accountable, and I will let you manage the shop・・・・・・"

"What?" Tong Basi raised his head in disbelief and asked in shock.

Mei Yixuan nodded affirmatively and said, "You heard it right, what I said is true." I'm not unconditional, though. Every year you deposit three hundred taels into the bank, and the rest is your business to earn or lose. Also, I won't give you the monthly plan for your family of four, but the deed of sale will remain with me as a punishment for you this time, do you understand?"

"Miss, what you said is true?" Although Tong Basi knew that what Mei Yixuan said was true, he still subconsciously asked. When he saw Mei Yixuan nodding affirmatively, he couldn't help but hold his head and kneel on the ground, self-blame, shame, remorse and other complex emotions made him cry for a while and let out a loud cry.

Although the old woman swore that the eldest lady was a good person, she also said that she would not really report to the official. But Tong Basi was still skeptical. If it weren't for the fact that the eldest lady was not what it used to be, he was afraid that one day she would really find out out of control, to be honest, he really didn't want to spit out the swallowed silver, it would hurt more than digging his heart!

He also knew that the crime he committed this time was very big, and it would definitely be a capital crime to report to the official, so he followed him as a live horse doctor to see Mei Yixuan this time, but he didn't expect it to be such a big surprise!

I thought it was a dead end, but I didn't expect the peak to turn around, it was an ending that I never dreamed of, under the great sorrow and joy, he could no longer control himself, so he cried in front of his children.

Mei Yixuan waited for him to cry almost before he said, "Tong Yong, help your father up, I still have something to say." ”

Tong Basi wiped his tears with his sleeve, stood up, and said, "Miss, if you have any orders, just say it, if my Tong Basi family has a second heart from now on, let me go to the eighteenth layer of hell after I die, and I will never be able to turn over!"

Mama Ye didn't expect Mei Yixuan to let them go like this, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and whimpered and said: "Miss, thank you, old slave! The old slave family is fortunate to meet the eldest lady in this life, which is a blessing from several lifetimes, and in the future, if there is a sending, it will be done well for the eldest lady!"

Mei Yixuan knew that the ancients had made the most important oath, and when she saw Mama Ye and her family swearing so solemnly, she knew that they had been completely subdued by herself, and she was slightly relieved.

The grocery store is the only property of the mother, and it is also the only shop of the Tong family in the capital. Although the income in a year is not very much, it is not too little, and Mei Yixuan's monthly income is only one hundred and twenty taels a year?

It stands to reason that Tong Basi dared to embezzle the profits of the shop, and he should not use him anymore. However, she thought of Mama Ye's loyalty to her sister and brother, and they also returned the silver and the two, the most important thing is that she didn't have any other people in her hands who could be trusted, so she could only take a risk.

After that, Mei Yixuan formulated in detail the contract provisions for the income of the shop, stating that the operation of the shop, the annual payment of silver taels, the name of the deposited money bank and the vouchers issued by the money bank were managed by Tong Basi, and she and Tong Basi signed and pressed their handprints respectively. The contract was in duplicate, one for each of her and Tong Basi.

Although his son could not get out of slavery, Tong Basi and his children still happily bid farewell to Mei Yixuan and went back happily.
