Chapter 261: Countermeasures (1)
Although Saitama took over the pair of cards from the Guogong Mansion, but the Lian family did not hand over the account book to her, where did the Lian family get if there was money in and out, in the final analysis, she did not really grasp the power of the housekeeper of the Guogong Mansion, just a housekeeper's daughter-in-law.
This embarrassing thing is nothing for Saitama and Lian, who are the masters, and Lian is still proud that he still holds the power of the housekeeper in the house, and Saitama doesn't care, he always wants to take it back. But the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law of a housekeeper at the bottom are uncomfortable, and they are extra careful in doing things, for fear of offending anyone.
There were those who whispered to Saitama and said:
"Grandma still has to take out the housekeeper's money, so it's not clear, but how can it be good. In the opinion of the slave maid, it is better to ask the wife directly, this matter was ordered by the grandfather of the country, and she didn't dare not give it. ”
"Isn't this going to tear your face with your wife, it's better to go to Grandpa Guo to help. ”
When Saitama heard these words, she just smiled and thanked them, but she didn't take any action, and even the big girl next to her was a little anxious.
"Don't worry about it, I have my own measure in this matter. ”
But this matter of asking for an account book can't be asked directly from the Lian family, after all, the Lian family is also his elder, and this just one filial piety word can hold him up and can't hold his head up. As for Grandpa Guo, if Li Yi is here, it's okay to say, but Li Yi is not in the capital now, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate for one of his nieces and daughters-in-law to go up to find him, not to mention that Lian is still the identity of the Duchess of Guo, so Grandpa Guo has to give some face.
During this time, there were no major events in the house, just some daily things, so Saitama did not rush to act, but secretly looked at the account of the treasury in the house.
It turned out that Li Yi's former relatives followed Rui'er to be recommended by Li Yi to serve as a county governor in Linjiang County, and his mother Liu's mother was the manager of the inner treasury of Fuzhong. Liu's mother's husband followed Grandpa Guo to the battlefield, so their family is very valued by Grandpa Guo, and even the clan has no way to replace Liu's mother several times, and the last time the gift of the concubine was also thanks to Liu's mother's help, Saitama was able to settle things.
So this time, she also handed over the matter of Chaneku to Liu's mother, because of the last Zhuangzi matter, Saitama believed that the Lian family must have done a lot of work on the accounts in the house. When he has evidence, he is not afraid that Lian will not hand over the account book.
Liu's mother is grateful to Li Yi because of her son, and she never dreamed that her son would be able to get rid of his slavery and become an official. Therefore, as soon as he heard Saitama's instructions, he promised that not only could he repay Li Yi's recommendation, but also if he overthrew the Lian family, his life would be much easier.
One day, Saitama listened to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the council hall and returned to her courtyard. There is a mother-in-law around Lian's side talking back and forth,
"Mrs. Dongpinghou is here, Mrs. Dongpinghou wants to stay with Mrs. Dongpinghou for dinner, and ask the second grandmother to prepare a good table table. And this is Mrs. Hou's gift list, please grandma to look at it, and by the way, ask grandma to prepare a return gift. ”
Hearing this, several maids around Saitama were angry, this Lian clan clearly regarded his grandmother as a daughter-in-law in charge, and he could have directly ordered the kitchen steward, but he had to show Saitama's face in front of the guests like this.
Saitama didn't get angry when she heard this, Lian's behavior was very ridiculous to her, and the guests who came didn't ask them to see her, but arranged for themselves to do these subordinate things, which was nothing more than making people laugh at the lack of rules in the Guogong Mansion. A thought suddenly flashed in her mind, whether it was time to do it herself, but after thinking about it, the matter was big, and it was the people of the Guogong Mansion who lost it, so it was better to bear with it first and then find a chance.
"Okay, I know, you go back to report to Madame first, and prepare the table in a while, I will send it over personally, and there will be no mistakes. ”
"Yes, Second Grandma. The woman thought that Saitama would be furious, and she didn't want to run this trip to be cannon fodder, but she didn't expect Saitama to have a calm face, and she couldn't help but be very happy.
"Grandma, Madame is really deceitful. When Que'er saw Saitamun's light appearance, she couldn't help but get anxious.
"Yes. Bicao also chimed in.
"What's the panic, I have a point. At this time, I am free, so I went to tell Liu Chun's daughter-in-law in the kitchen to prepare a good table on the table and send it to my aunt in a while. ”
Saitama took out a list sent by Liu's mother, which listed a few things that were in the bottom account of the warehouse, but could not be found in the warehouse. It includes a glass-fired kang screen, a pair of Shu brocade Yingluo, a mutton fat jade ornament, and a two-foot-high coral bonsai. Saitama looked at the list and slowly had an idea in her heart.
When the kitchen was ready, Saitama changed into clothes and went to the courtyard of the Rens.
After the maid reported, Saitama walked in, first went up to see the Lian family, and then met Mrs. Dongpinghou. Mrs. Dongping Hou is a fellow villager of the Lian family, and she came today just to find Lian's Lala family, and she didn't want to eat, but Lian repeatedly invited her, so she agreed. Hearing that Lian ordered someone to pass a message to Mrs. Shizi, he was a little disapproving, and secretly said that this old sister was confused. Things have come to this point, why can't Tian Tian think about it, and he has to make trouble with the prince and his wife.
But when she listened to the report of her subordinates, and felt that Saitama, the wife of the prince, deserved to be a little more honest, she was a little angry, but how could there be all kinds of rumors in the capital that the prince of Qi was skilled. When I heard that Saitama was coming, I was not only curious to see this famous woman.
I saw Saitama wearing a lake-green dress, pulling a bun with the clouds, and inserting a golden step diagonally, and the whole person looked refreshing. Saitama saluted Mrs. Higashihiro upright, and Mrs. Toheihou secretly praised when she saw it:
"Sure enough, he is a sign of the person, and the etiquette is also thoughtful. ”
"Auntie, the table has been set, please take a seat for aunt and wife. ”
Lian was a little puzzled when he saw Saitama doing this, but he couldn't show it in front of the guests, so he had to hold the maid's hand and walk to the side hall.
Saitama was supposed to serve by Lian's side, but Lian refused, and Saitama had no choice but to retire.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly said:
"Auntie, this is a gift list for the Liguo Mansion, can you see if it is appropriate?"
Lian was made uncomfortable by Saitama, and at this time, where did he want to see what gift list, so he hurriedly said:
"It's up to you to decide what to do with this gift, and you have to ask about everything. ”
Saitama made a panicked look on her face and quickly retreated, but she laughed secretly in her heart. (To be continued.) )
