Chapter 3 Outer Room Door
When the subordinate heard this, he was a little panicked, licked his dry lips, and finally obeyed Zhou Youyi's words and brought the account book.
"Get the butler. As soon as Zhou Youyi took the account book, she immediately commanded, and her tone was not to be ignored.
"Yes. The subordinate didn't dare to have any whispers, and hurriedly ran to find the housekeeper.
Zhou Youyi carefully flipped through the account book, and after a short time, she found that there was a problem with the entry and exit records of the money, her face was slightly gloomy, and her eyes were serious.
At this time, the housekeeper just arrived, bowed slightly, and called, "Young lady, you are looking for me." ”
"You've come just in time. Zhou Youyi raised her lips, with a hint of chill in her smile, "Here, here, and here...... The amount of silver spent is much greater than the market value of the purchased items, you can explain. ”
As she spoke, she circled out several questions on the ledger one by one and presented them in front of the housekeeper, exuding a strong sense of oppression around her.
"Madame Young, don't you know, it rained for days a few days ago, and the price of vegetables rose, so the amount of money spent was naturally a few times more. The butler seemed to be prepared and explained methodically.
"Really?" Zhou Youyi raised her eyebrows and asked, wanting to say something, but at this time, a pretty figure walked in and blocked her from speaking.
"Sister-in-law, I looked around, so you are here. The woman's voice was a little sharp, dressed in fancy clothes, and wearing heavy makeup, it was the second room Fang, "You are a bride who has just entered the door, and many subordinates and juniors have to visit you, you should be in the room now, and it is not appropriate to stay in a messy place like the kitchen for a long time." And I, as a younger brother and sister, will also visit you. In my opinion, you should go back first. As for these chores, I can check them for you. ”
"There are Lao brothers and sisters who care, but there is no need, since my mother has entrusted this matter to me, I will naturally do it myself. Zhou Youyi just glanced at her nonchalantly, and quickly fell on the housekeeper again, "Butler, you just said that the excess expenditure is because of the rain and rising vegetable prices for days, but the times I circled are all months apart, is it that even last year's lunar month also rained every day?"
At the end of the words, Zhou Youyi's tone became more and more serious, and she questioned sharply.
"This ......"
The housekeeper was thinking about the wording, but was interrupted by Zhou Youyi without saying anything: "Come on, go to the housekeeper's room and search carefully, and report any abnormalities immediately." ”
"Yes!"
Seeing this, Fang Clan didn't want to say anything more, and slowly retreated to the side, his face not very good-looking.
Zhou Youyi glanced at her without a trace, her face was still not shocked, and she stood quietly in place and waited.
She remembered that in the previous life, the Fang clan had united with this housekeeper to be greedy, and it was precisely because of this that she was in such a hurry to stop her investigation.
After a while, the servant found a lot of silver taels from the housekeeper's room and presented them to Zhou Youyi.
"Butler, I remember that your monthly salary should be seven taels of silver, and after deducting some trivial expenses, how did you save so many taels of silver?" Zhou Youyi shook the money bag in front of the housekeeper, and her tone was cold.
Fang's eyes flickered, and he immediately rushed in front of the housekeeper and spoke: "Okay, you dog slave, I trust you so much, and I entrust you with all the work of purchasing and purchasing, you dare to be greedy for ink privately! I promoted you kindly, but you have trapped me in such a situation, how can I explain to your wife and children in the future?!"
The curvature of Zhou Youyi's lips quietly deepened, and she just watched Fang's performance quietly without saying a word.
Her trick of abandoning the car to protect the handsome is a good one.
"Sister-in-law, it was my management negligence that caused this kind of thing, please punish me. Saying that, Fang's still looked distressed, extremely annoyed and blamed himself.
"Please spare the young lady this time, it was because I was confused for a while, so I would do such a foolish thing......" The butler hurriedly knelt down and told him in fear, but he didn't mention the Fang family.
Zhou Youyi knew that the Fang family deliberately mentioned "wife and children" just now, which was obviously a threat, how could the housekeeper dare to confess her?
"Since you have done this kind of thing, the Shen Mansion will definitely not be able to tolerate you, so pack up your things and leave the mansion immediately. Zhou Youyi's voice was not loud, but with an innate majesty, she said loudly, "The whole house takes this as a warning, don't do it again in the future." Otherwise, I will not be spared. ”
"Yes!"
Zhou Youyi's words were ostensibly aimed at everyone, but in fact, they were deliberately said to Fang's family.
She still has an unstable foundation in the Shen Mansion, so naturally it is impossible to directly dispose of the Fang family's head, this time, it is just a wake-up call for her.
"What a Zhou Clan! Isn't she blatantly killing chickens and monkeys? I'm really angry!" Fang Shi returned to the room, slapped the table angrily, and scolded.
"Young lady, you are discouraged. Fang's personal maid poured her a cup of tea and soothed, "Since the Zhou clan dares to touch our people this time, then we naturally want to get it back, and we won't let her have a good time!"
"You're right. Fang Shi took a sip of tea, then calmed down a little, squinted his eyes, thought of something, and immediately ordered, "Didn't the eldest young master raise an outer room? ”
Early the next morning, a group of people gathered at the gate of the Shen Mansion, which was very lively.
Zhou Youyi received the news and immediately walked to the door, only to see a woman with a slightly bulging lower abdomen standing outside the door, dressed in plain clothes and with a beautiful face.
"Who is coming, and what is the matter?" Zhou Youyi stood in front of the woman unhurriedly and asked in a deep voice.
The next moment, I saw that the woman suddenly knelt on the ground with a "bang", and asked loudly: "Young lady, my name is Du Ruowei, I came here today to beg you...... Fulfill me and Acher. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone on the lookers couldn't help but gasp, they didn't expect today's play to be so exciting.
"It's only been two days since the Shen family's big house passed the door, right? It's really embarrassing that the outer room found the door so quickly!"
"That's it, if it were me, I would have no face to live in this world!"
......
Everyone talked about it, and it more or less reached Zhou Youyi's ears, and the latter was always calm, staring at Du Ruowei intently, without saying a word.
Seeing that Zhou Youyi didn't answer for a long time, Du Ruowei said with tears in her eyes: "Young lady, you really don't hide it...... I am already pregnant with Ah Che's child, even if you don't want to accept me, you can't watch this Shen family's child wander away, right? Madam, Ah Che and I really love each other, please, fulfill us. ”
As she spoke, she leaned down and knocked her head three times.
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Youyi, and they didn't speak, obviously waiting to see her jokes.
Just when everyone thought that Zhou Youyi would be embarrassed, she slowly stretched out her hand, helped Du Ruowei up, and said gently: "Come in first, if you have anything to say, we can say it slowly." ”
