The Cao family was dressing Jiang Bohua, who woke up from a nap, in the house, and was still a little dazed after listening to Bai Guochuan's words: "Qingguo and Mother Song? Why did you tie them up? "

"Qingguo took advantage of his wife's nap to run to the big girl's house to steal things." Bai Guo stood with his hands down, his tone unhurried, "It just so happened that the girl came back and was catching her and breaking the girl's things." The girl said that since she had this courage, her hands must not be clean on weekdays, so she went to Song's mother to search, and sure enough, she found a lot of silver. The girl asked her wife to come over and discuss how to send them to the official for investigation. "

"Send the officer?" Cao's mind was chaotic, how did Qingguo steal things, and how did he break Taohua's things? Why did Taohua search Song's mother's residence again...... didn't allow her to figure it out, and the two words of the official shocked her again: "I, I'll go now." "Mother Song and Qingguo were brought to the Chen family from the Cao family, then back to the Cao family from the Chen family, and finally to the Jiang family.

"Mother, what's wrong?" The house is small, and everyone knows what's going on. Jiang Yanhua heard the movement in her room and walked out: "Why did my sister tie up Qingguo and Mother Song?" Anyway, Song's mother is also her mother's nurse...... "This is a bundle?"

"I don't know, it's Qingguo stealing things...... Cao Shi panicked, "Quick, you go with your mother to have a look." "

When the mother and daughter entered Taohua's courtyard, they saw that the door of the wing room was open, Taohua was sitting inside, and Qingguo and Song's mother were tied up, with cloth balls in their mouths, and they were all kneeling on the ground. Seeing Cao coming over, Taohua got up unhurriedly: "Mrs. is here." Mint and bring the chair to Mrs. "

Where can the Cao family take care of sitting: "Big girl, what's wrong?" "

Taohua nodded faintly at the pieces on the ground: "Qingguo came to my house to steal things, but he knocked over the box and smashed the jade carving narcissus left for me by my mother. "

The words jade carving narcissus broke into his ears, and Cao Shi seemed to have been knocked with a stick, looked down at the thing on the ground that was broken into seven or eight pieces, and swallowed back when the sentence came to his mouth - this is the jade carving left by Li, it is clearly a fake brought by Mrs. Cao Wu!

"This, this ......" Cao Shi was speechless. At this time, no matter how stupid she is, she should figure it out, where is Qingguo stealing things, it is obvious that Taohua found that the jade carving narcissus was transferred, this is to settle the account. Otherwise, what can't Qingguo smash, but smash this jade carving that shouldn't be taken out for display now?

Jiang Yanhua followed up all the way, and she didn't understand what she didn't understand, but when she saw her mother's face flushed, she couldn't help but say: "Sister, even if Qingguo breaks something by mistake, she shouldn't tie up Mother Song, anyway, she is her mother's nurse, sister-"

Before the words were finished, Taohua turned her head to the side, and the bellflower immediately took out a box, which was full of ingots of silver, enough for fifty or sixty taels, and a few pieces of gold, which were also worth thirty or forty taels of silver: "Second girl, these are all from Song's mother's house." "

Looking at the gold and silver in the box, Cao Shi was also startled. That's nearly a hundred taels of silver, and even she can't get it for a while. Mother Song was in charge of her main courtyard, and she couldn't help but deduct people, and she also stretched out her hand to buy in the kitchen in her name, and she knew that she could get some oil and water, but she didn't expect that there would be so much.

"Mother Song's monthly silver is one tael, and Qingguo is five hundred yuan." Taohua's tone was still faint, "How did these things come about?" "

The Cao family wanted to say that she rewarded them herself, but when she got married, she didn't have much on her, so where could she reward a subordinate with so much silver? One is not good, maybe others think she is fishing for oil and water.

"My wife has seen it, so let's send these two to the official." Momoka turned her head and ordered Mint.

Cao Shi was taken aback suddenly, and hurriedly said: "Big girl, here, this stolen thing has been found, so there is no need to send it to the official......"

"yes." Although Jiang Yanhua secretly hated Mother Song for making money privately, but in the end, these two were Cao's dowries, and sending them to the official was to slap Cao's face, and she also said, "The gold and silver have also been lost, I think they won't dare next time, my sister will teach them a few boards, so let's see the after-effects." "

"The stolen things have been found, what about this jade carving?" Taohua looked at Cao Shi expressionlessly, "Mrs. also knows that this is something left to me by my mother, not to mention that the relics of the old man are priceless, just say that this jade carving is also worth a hundred and ten taels of silver, can Qingguo afford it?" "

Cao wanted to say that these pieces of silver on the ground were not even worth ten taels of silver, but he couldn't say this anyway. Qingguo and Mother Song on the ground also had ghosts in their hearts, so they could only look at Cao with pleading faces.

Jiang Yanhua didn't know that Qingguo had secretly changed the jade carving, but she was also very envious of that piece of narcissus jade carving, she didn't pay much attention to it every year when Taohua put it out, and now she felt that something was wrong when she looked at the pieces on the ground. And she suddenly discovered just now that since they entered this house, Taohua didn't call Cao "mother" as usual, but only called "wife", which was really abnormal.

After two moments, Jiang Yanhua didn't dare to speak for a while. Taohua saw that no one was silent, so she nodded to Mint, and Mint and Mrs. Liu came up, and one dragged one to go out.

Cao Shi couldn't help it anymore, hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, and said in a wailing voice: "Big girl, how can Mother Song also be my nurse, you, even if you look at me, you can't send her to the official." "

Taohua looked at her for a while and laughed: "It's the same." The wife's dowry, if it is said that she is an official because of stealing, it is not a good look. But such thieves who steal things cannot stay, and call a man to come and sell these two people far away, so that no one will ask about it, and it will bring back the reputation of his wife. "

Although there is no need to send it to the official, it is not Cao's wish to be sold. Just as she wanted to say a few more words, Taohua had already continued: "It's just that it's not good that there is no one in the wife's house, and my girl Poria is also capable, so I'll make up for it for my wife." "When he said that, he called Mint, "Call Poria out and send Mrs. back." Bai Ge'er will wake up with fear, don't scare him. "

Speaking of his son, Cao's mind flew. She was in a hurry, and she ran over before she could dress Jiang Bohua, and she couldn't really scare her son. Although the nurse is important, she is not as important as her son, not to mention the jade carving narcissus, she is still weak-hearted, so she was picked up by the mint, and involuntarily walked out. Jiang Yanhua stopped talking, looked at Qingguo and Mother Song, still didn't say anything, and followed Cao Shi away.

Mother Song and Qingguo on the ground were all panicked. The Jiang family lives a rich life, their work is easy, and they are the companions of the main mother, and their lives are more comfortable than in the Cao family. But if you sell it, you don't know where it will fall, and when the time comes, how can you have such a good life?

Both of them only hoped that the Cao family could show the majesty of the housemother and force the people to stay, but who knew that the Cao family was so soft, and they were sent out in three sentences. On weekdays, I like the housewife to be gentle and easy to deal with, but now I want to cry without tears, so I have to turn around and look at Taohua again. Mother Song's mind turned quickly, thinking that if she confessed to Mrs. Cao Wu, she might be able to get off lightly, so she muttered something in her mouth, just hoping to say a few words.

Taohua ignored it at all, and only said to Mrs. Liu: "Lock people up in the firewood room." Call for a tooth to come today, and sell it farther, as long as it's not in such a filthy place. "She can't sell people to a place like a kiln, as for what kind of master she will meet in the future, it depends on the luck of Qingguo and Mother Song.

Cao Shi went back to his house in a daze, and saw Jiang Bohua being held by the nurse and looking at the flowers under the porch, so he was relieved. In a blink of an eye, he saw that there was no green fruit around him, and he replaced a Poria cocos and stood with his head down, his heart was like something blocked, he couldn't go up or down, and he couldn't help but stroke his chest and wave his hand: "You all go down." "

Jiang Yanhua also sent away her girl daylily, and covered the door before whispering: "Mother, what's going on?" "

"What's going on?" Cao didn't want to say more, "This, this is Qingguo's girl who is not angry, and Mother Song, I didn't know that she was greedy for so many ......."

Jiang Yanhua shook her head: "Mother, I don't think it's so simple. No matter how bold Qingguo was, she didn't dare to go to her sister's yard to steal. Besides, didn't my mother notice, my sister kept calling my mother Mrs. "

"Huh?" Cao really didn't notice this, and was stunned before he understood, "This, this--this thing was all provoked by your aunt, but it can be regarded as offending the eldest girl." "

"What did my aunt do?" Jiang Yanhua didn't expect anything to happen, "I look at the broken pieces on the ground, they don't look like that jade carving." Didn't my sister get a fake piece to plant Qingguo? "It's just that Qingguo was really caught in the Taohua house, and in any case, it would have been against the rules to sneak into the girl's house, otherwise she would have to point out the strangeness of the jade carving.

Cao grabbed her hand: "My son, fortunately you didn't say it." You don't know, that piece of jade, that piece of jade has already been given to your aunt......"

After Jiang Yanhua heard Cao's words, his face changed: "Mother, you, why are you like this-" Swallowed the word confused, "How can you listen to your aunt's words to steal that jade carving!" "If it's something else, it's just that, but this jade carving is Li's beloved thing, and my aunt will really pick up good things and ask for them.

Cao Shi also regretted it a little at this time, and muttered: "Your aunt is also for my good......"

Jiang Yanhua was so angry that she stomped her feet: "Then take out this jade carving, is it given to me or to Brother Bai'er?" "

Cao Shi was speechless when asked, and only said after a while: "Your aunt also wants me to be in charge, and besides, those things, it would be good if I could divide some between you and Brother Bai'er." "

Jiang Yanhua said angrily: "Is this how you are in charge?" This thing is troublesome, if my father is annoyed, my mother still wants to be in charge? "

Thinking of Jiang Xi, Cao couldn't help but shrink and muttered, "No, it's not ...... to stop" Since she got married, Jiang Xi is still very gentle and considerate to her, "Besides, if your uncle gets a good job, our mother and son will also have someone to support you." "

She said sadly: "My son, you have suffered with your mother. If it weren't for your dead ghost father going early, why would our mother and son suffer so much. Just because my mother is married for the second time, I can't always raise my head. "

Jiang Yanhua frowned, and hurriedly interrupted her: "What did my mother say!" "If you stay in the Chen family, how can you have a comfortable life in the Jiang family? This mother is really confused, if these words are heard by the Jiang family, what good will it be.

Cao Shi was even more sad when he heard it: "Our mother and son don't even dare to say anything until now......"

Jiang Yanhua caught a glimpse of Bai Guo standing outside the door, and was so anxious that she couldn't cover her mother's mouth: "Don't say it!" Mother, don't talk about it! "This mother was confused in the past, and when she was in the Chen family, she was not pleased with Mrs. Chen, and she was reprimanded like a saw-mouthed gourd, how dare she say anything? It was quite cautious to enter the Jiang family later, why did he give birth to a son now, and this foolish energy came up again.

Bai Guo stood outside the door, and he could hear these words clearly in his ears. She had no expression on her face, but she only sneered in her heart. Although the Chen family is not in Wuxi, since they want to marry the Cao family, they naturally have to inquire about her past affairs clearly.

They are all small families, where can they hide any secrets, so what kind of life did the Cao family live in the Chen family, the subordinates of the Jiang family, especially the big girl like Bai Guo, are like a mirror in their hearts - because they didn't give birth to a son, they were like avoiding cats and mice in the Chen family, and now they are the housewife of the Jiang family, but they are bitter, and they really feel noble after a few days of full food.

Bai Guo is the son of the Jiang family, and he has also waited for the Li family in front. Li's father was a petty official, and because he was too square, his career was very unsmooth, so he simply resigned early and taught his children at home.

Li was taught by his father since he was a child, and his daughter's family did not study for the sake of erudition, but for reason. married and behaved generously and uprightly, and in the few years he lived in the capital, Mrs. Jiang praised him. When he arrived at his ancestral home, he was the housekeeper, and none of the subordinates were dissatisfied.

The Cao clan is not comparable to the Li clan at all. She was born to her aunt, and Mrs. Cao had a room of concubines, where was Mrs. Cao willing to teach with her heart, and only asked them to follow her aunt. What does the aunt know, she only married into the Chen family at the beginning, and because she couldn't take care of the family, she ate her mother-in-law's leader, and then she couldn't do anything at all.

When she married into the Jiang family, Taohua was already in charge of the family's affairs, and she was only in charge of her own yard, and then she gradually took over some other things. Just these things, she didn't manage them very neatly, otherwise Mother Song wouldn't have been able to take the opportunity to get oil and water. The eyes of the subordinates are all sharp, if it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to Jiang Baihua soon after she entered the door, I am afraid that she would not be able to suppress people at all.

However, when a son is born and a son is born, the mother of the master is not very clever, and the subordinates do not say it in their mouths, but they will still compare in their hearts. Baiguo is a big girl who waits closely, and she can see it even more clearly. The Cao family really doesn't have much ability, not to mention that the eldest girl doesn't give her the account outside, even if she hands it over to her, she can't manage it well. And often took the Jiang family's silver to supplement Mrs. Cao's family, and now she has hit the idea of the previous wife's marriage, Baiguo is the girl of the Jiang family, where can she go to the Cao family? Because of the etiquette, you have to be respectful to the master, but what you think in your heart is unbearable.

Hearing that the mother and daughter of the Cao family were silent in the door, Bai Guo took a step forward and opened the curtain to enter, lowered her head and said: "Madam, since the eldest girl called Poria to come over to fill the gap, Mrs. looked, but let her live in Qingguo's house?" "

At the mention of Poria Cocos, Cao's heart suddenly blocked again, and he asked for a long time: "Qingguo and Mother Song......

Bai Guo's voice was smooth, and he said without any ups and downs: "The eldest girl called Ding Yapo to come." "

There are several local Ya Po, and Ding Ya Po has the best reputation, buying and selling people, and never touching the dust. After calling her, Mother Song and Qingguo at least won't fall into an unsightly place. Cao Shi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, thought about it and said, "The things in their house, tell them to take them away." "

Bai Guo sneered in his stomach, and still replied so flatly: "The eldest girl said, not to mention the dowry of the previous wife, this piece of jade is also worth a hundred and ten taels of silver, and the things in Mother Song and Qingguo's room are not enough to pay half of this jade." "

Cao Shi was choked up, trembling hands and said: "Anyway, I am also a person who has served for a while, so I drove out naked......" I finally remembered a sentence and said busily, "If it spreads, don't you let people say that the eldest girl is mean?" "

When he said this, Bai Guo was suddenly angry, and couldn't help but say: "Madam, if you change to another family and steal things like this, it is necessary to see the official." I'm afraid that it will be spread out and people will say that the wife's dowry girl stole the dowry of the previous wife, which will make the wife and the second girl shameless, so they will be sold far away. "

Bai Guo said this powerfully. In the final analysis, this matter is also the idea of the Cao family to start the original dowry, if it is spread, the Cao family has no face and it is a trivial matter, Jiang Yanhua is the daughter she brought from the Chen family, with such a mother-in-law, the daughter's reputation is not good. Even if the Cao family is not afraid of being pointed out behind his back, how can he not be afraid of his daughter's reputation? Sora was angry, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

Bai Guo waited for a while, and when he saw that she didn't show anything, he took Poria to the next room by himself.

Qingguo and Song's mother's things have been searched, and Bai Guo pointed to the room to Poria: "This house is bigger, you can live there." If the wife has a show, let's talk about it. "

Poria covered herself and looked at the empty room in a daze. The matter of stealing the jade carving was not revealed, and Taohua naturally allowed her to bring all her own things. But several big girls know about this, and they don't look at her as much as before. Besides, she is short of green fruits, but I am afraid that the Cao family will not be seen. I thought about the source left and right, but now I don't rely on the two ends, so I thought about saying a few words to Bai Guo, but Bai Guo had already turned her head and went out, leaving her standing there before she regretted it.
