Chapter 534: First Strike is Stronger
Mu Meisu, who was sitting under her, didn't look very good-looking, but as soon as her eyes turned, she also pretended to be upset for the old lady, and said in a soft and helpless tone, "Mother, don't be angry, I think Yulian is right, young grandmother, she may have a little misunderstanding of our mother, this is ......." ”
The voice behind it gradually lowered, but the art of speaking that left half of it was clearly having an immediate effect.
Originally, the old lady was so angry that smoke was rising above her head, and she would listen to Mu Meisu's mother and daughter again, and I would comfort you again, and her whole body seemed to be filled with fire that had nowhere to vent.
"How can this be reasonable, there is no one in sight!"
The old lady was so angry that it took a long time for her to hold back such a sentence.
Seeing this, Mu Meisu immediately showed a worried look, "Mother, don't be angry, it's not good to blame me for this, I was just worried that they were young and inexperienced for fear of making a joke ......." ”
"Seeing that the young grandmother is confident, I think my mother should be relieved."
After being silent, she lowered her head, sighed and added, "It's the girl called Red Shadow in Fenglinju, I think it's also a capable person, I was worried about it before." ”
I have to say that Mu Meisu really touched the old lady's temper very accurately.
She persuaded her to retreat into advance, but it became more and more irritating to the old lady's anger.
"What can do? What is confident? ”
The old lady was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe, her chest rose and fell violently for a long time, she slapped the table, gritted her teeth angrily, and said, "They are just guarding against me, an old woman, like a thief." ”
"It's really unreasonable, I don't believe that this Mu Mansion is all controlled by Mu Xiaofeng's girl."
Mu Meisu was overjoyed, looking at this posture, this old woman was about to come up with a killer weapon to deal with Mu Xiaofeng's girl.
"Nuan Chun, you go inside and get my seal out."
The old lady thought for a moment, and did not hesitate to order.
Mother Cheng, who was standing beside her, was shocked, raised her eyes to look at Mu Meisu apprehensively, hesitated for a moment, and cautiously reminded, "Old lady, your seal has not been used for a long time." ”
At this time, he rashly took it out, did he want to give it to this aunt who disappeared for more than 20 years and suddenly showed up and rubbed back?
Are you going to do it against the eldest lady?
The old lady was silent, perhaps she understood her hint, or maybe she didn't understand it at all.
glanced at Cheng's mother, her brows were as heavy as ink, and she reprimanded unhappily when she opened her mouth, "If you ask you to take it, you can take it, what are you talking about." ”
Cheng's mother lowered her head and replied tremblingly, "Yes, the slave will go and get it." ”
After a while, Cheng's mother took out a small iron box from the cabinet in the inner room.
"Old lady, the seal has been brought."
The old lady looked at the two-finger-sized topaz seal in the iron box, and her expression was a little dazy for a moment, as if she remembered the distant and vague past through this small seal.
After waiting for a while, the old lady was still in such a trance outside the wandering object, Mu Meisu was secretly anxious, and couldn't help curling up her fingers to sting herself, and called softly tentatively, "Mother? ”
"Oh? What's up? ”
The old lady glanced at her suddenly, and saw her staring at herself with a worried face, her eyes wandering back and forth on the brocade box in her hand, and then she gradually broke free from her memories.
With a low sigh, he took out the old topaz seal, but he put it in the palm of his hand and checked it, then looked at Mu Meisu and said, "Meisu, if you take this seal, you can go to some shops under the name of Mu Mansion and take out a certain amount of silver." ”
After a pause, a trace of hesitation seemed to flash in her dark eyes, and she heard Jiang Yulian, who was standing behind her, ask in surprise, "Grandmother, are you planning to let your mother handle your aunt's funeral?" ”
At this question, the old lady could only suppress the hesitation in her heart, smiled far-fetchedly, nodded and said, "Well, your cousin-in-law is too young and never careless, I'm worried that I will make a joke when the time comes." ”
Mu Meisu looked at the seal she handed over, but she was reluctant to reach out to take it, but instead showed a worried look and said worriedly, "But mother, this is using your private money to handle the funeral, this is ...... How? ”
I also want to know that I can get some cash from the shops, and those shops must be some dowries that the old lady later redeemed.
The old lady glanced at her, directly stuffed the seal into her palm, and said in a tone that did not allow her to shirk any longer, "This seal, in addition to taking a part of the silver, can also have other uses, if you can do things without it, I am happy, this is just for you to keep, a lot of confidence." ”
Mu Meisu immediately said gratefully, "Thank you mother for your trust." ”
The old lady patted the back of her hand, but said nothing.
After Mu Meisu coaxed the old lady's private seal, she discussed the specific things with the old lady, and then went out to do things very actively.
In the early morning of the next day, everyone finished breakfast one after another, and some merchants began to send things to Mufu like a rush.
These things, of course, include coffins, shrouds, white flags, ingots, incense candles, etc., which need to be handled for funerals.
"Red Shadow Girl, Red Shadow Girl......
Red Shadow walked out of Fenglin Residence, and was blocked by a steward as soon as he was discharged from the hospital.
"Steward Xu, what's wrong?"
Seeing that the steward looked solemn and ran over again, something difficult to deal with must have happened.
As soon as her heart moved, Red Shadow almost immediately remembered that she had been called to Sukido by the old lady yesterday.
With the old lady's paranoid nature, she didn't think that the things she mentioned yesterday would be easily stopped.
But because she was busy with the funeral now, she didn't have the leisure to pay more attention to it for a while.
"Just now, the guys from several shops have successively delivered the items needed for the funeral."
"So early?"
Red Shadow was stunned, and then came to his senses, "It's not the merchant I originally set?" ”
The middle-aged steward immediately nodded like garlic, "It's not at all the list you made before, girl, not only that, but all of these merchants came to the door with contracts, so let's pay the money in one lump sum according to the contract." ”
Red Shadow's face sank, and the steward took a breath, and continued to speak urgently, "I have done a cursory inspection, and those items are shoddy at all, but the price signed on the contract is thirty percent higher than other items of the same quality. ”
Red Shadow rubbed his forehead, and arched upwards uncontrollably in his heart.
The steward took a breath, and then said urgently, "Also, the contract they presented did not pay a penny at all. And according to the agreement, after they deliver the goods to the door, we have to settle all the payments immediately. ”
After Steward Xu finished talking about all the questions, he slapped the back of his hand angrily and said with a bitter face, "Isn't this a clear display of the money in our house?" ”
