Chapter 214: Gossip

"Master, the little one is incompetent."

The chief steward of the Jun Mansion appeared in front of Jun Mowei with a rotten vegetable leaf on his head, and he was stinking all over.

At this time, Jun Mowei was no longer entertaining guests in the front yard, but accompanied Cui Li to the study, he saw the chief steward in such a shape, and couldn't help frowning: "It's all waste, and such a trivial matter can't be settled." ”

Cui Li looked at the chief steward and frowned: "I'm afraid this matter is not simple, someone should be intervening behind it, otherwise, a few people alone would never dare to do this." ”

Jun Mowei was originally upset, and he didn't think of this, but now when he heard Cui Li say this, his heart suddenly became clear, and he nodded and said, "What my brother said is, I'm afraid that someone will deal with me." ”

"I ask you, who are the people who come to ask for money, and you can tell me in detail." Jun Mowei looked at the chief steward and asked sharply.

The chief steward didn't dare to hide anything from the side, and replied carefully: "There are the hired workers in the Pei family's flower field, the shopkeeper in the Gu family's shop, the coachman of the Zheng family's carriage and horse shop, and the guys from several big silver buildings, those who sell snacks in the dog's tail alley, those who wander around outside the capital, and some small landlords with Zhuangzi......"

The more the chief steward spoke, the tighter Jun Mowei's brows wrinkled: "Brother, let's see if there is anyone suspicious." ”

Cui Li also waved his hand again and again when he heard it: "I really can't hear anything." ”

The chief steward bowed his head and did not dare to say more.

Jun Mowei couldn't figure it out after thinking for a while, so he asked, "How much silver did these people coexist?" ”

The chief steward made a bitter face: "Master, there are too many of these people, although each person does not have much silver, but it is really a lot in total, and the small one asked the account room, and I am afraid that there are more than 300,000 taels in one place." ”

"Phew!" Jun Mowei and Cui Li gasped at the same time: "So much? ”

"How much money can the money come up with?" Jun Mowei asked again.

"There isn't much cash in the money bank now." The chief steward was about to wipe his sweat: "That Qian Dehai borrowed more than 200,000 taels of silver and ran away, and those small merchants in the capital also borrowed a lot, and the miscellaneous things added up to a total of 560,000 taels, and now the money village adds up to less than 100,000 taels of silver." ”

One sentence made Jun Mowei's heart fire: "Why do you lend so much?" I didn't expect that today, it's all a bunch of waste. ”

Cui Li glanced at the chief steward: "It is only right to take back the borrowed silver first and plug the hole." ”

The chief steward made a bitter face: "Master, uncle, really, the silver lent out has not yet expired, if it is forcibly withdrawn, I am afraid that the credibility of our money bank will ......."

"Anyway, let's get through this first." Jun Mo stood up for a slap on the table.

The chief steward didn't say anything more, so he answered and walked out.

In the flower hall, Mrs. Lu left with an angry face, and the wives of several petty officials also said goodbye one after another, and Mrs. Xu, who was walking behind, had a sad face, but Mrs. Hu sat firmly with a smile on her face, probably meaning to read a joke.

Cui Shi walked around the room like ants in a hot pot, with an anxious look on his face, and after a while, when he saw Jixiang coming in and pulling her, he asked, "What, what did the master say?" ”

Ji Xiang lowered his head and replied cautiously: "The master said to send those people away first, and asked the lady to take out the cash in the house to pass this pass." ”

Cui Shi clenched her fists, although she was very unwilling, but she didn't dare to disobey Jun Mowei's words, so she gritted her teeth and nodded, and asked Jixiang to take the right card to get the card in the account room, and then go to the treasury to get the silver.

Jixiang took the right cards and left, and Cui's whole person was deflated and sat down on the chair.

Inside the new house

Zhang Wei sat on the tuck of teeth, only to feel a burst of breath, she took off her hijab with one hand, and said to the girl who was accompanying her: "You go down first, I'll take a break." ”

The maid in the room bowed and withdrew, and only Zhang Wei was left in the room.

Zhang Wei bit her lip, and when she saw the fruits on the table, she suddenly felt hungry, got up, took a piece of dim sum, swallowed it in a few bites, and took a teacup and poured tea.

After drinking the tea, she seemed to be alive again, and then she was in the mood to look at this new house.

But seeing that this new house should be in a fairly spacious independent courtyard, Zhang Wei looked out through the window, saw that the courtyard was elegantly arranged, and guessed that the place where she was sitting was the main house, five main rooms with a depth of about three zhang, and there were wings on the east and west sides.

Then take a look at the layout of the house, a water of Huanghuali furniture, the window is inlaid with butterfly shadow yarn, the east side of the eight screens are made of golden silk nanmu, one of the screens is embedded in the middle of the various colors of glass made of winter snow Aomeitu, the tent curtains in the house are all containing smoke Luo and cloud shadow yarn, the value of the various layouts of this room alone is estimated to be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

After looking around, Zhang Wei nodded, this Jun family is also kind and attaches great importance to her, this house alone is much more exquisite than the layout of the new house when she married into the Jiang family.

Just as Zhang Wei was about to move her hands and feet, she heard footsteps outside the door, she quickly sat on the bed, and pricked up her ears to listen.

But the footsteps should have come from two girls, who entered the courtyard, but did not rush into the house, but sat down under the porch.

Zhang Wei only felt weird, and even more fine.

After a while, the two girls began to whisper, Zhang Wei couldn't hear clearly, and then moved a few steps towards the door to hear clearly.

But I heard one of the girls say: "Now that the outside of our house is surrounded by people, the guests of Hexi can't come in, and the merchants who deliver dishes and fruits can't come in, and the sister-in-law in the kitchen is in a hurry." ”

Another girl lowered her voice: "It's bad enough to say, which family got married like this, let me tell you, our wife is afraid that she will be planted this time, and the surname Qian is too bold to dare to run away with the silver, but asked our wife to fill the bottomless pit." ”

"It's really weird." The previous girl said softly: "Tell me, more than 200,000 taels of silver, how can he take it out of the capital, so many big boxes of silver, the surname Qian was quietly transported away, I can't think of any way to get out of the capital." ”

"It's right, too." Another girl sneered: "Call me to say, it's also the Zhang family's lady who is not blessed, you say, she married to the Jiang family before, and the Jiang family was good, but she married in the past, and she married into our family, and this happened when she entered the door." ”

Zhang Wei gritted her teeth angrily when she heard this, she couldn't wait to pull that girl over and slap her, why is she not blessed, she is the daughter of the Zhang family, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she let a little girl slander her, it is really ...... It's boring.

"Be quiet." The previous girl lowered her voice: "But then again, the Zhang family lady is really unblessed, the Zhang family still thinks that our house is a good place, how do you know that our son has kicked people to break the root of life, and the Zhang family's lady is also a widow when she marries in, speaking of which, if our son is not wrong, how can he be willing to marry a second marriage." ”

"You're going to die." Another girl slapped over: "Forget the two ...... who died earlier"

"Exactly, why don't I have a long memory." The girl slapped herself: "Sister Ruyi also asked me to deliver the food, I'll leave first, you go and bring food to the bride." ”

"What to eat, the kitchen is in a mess right now, where do I have time to wait." Another girl sneered: "I still have to go to the garden to guard those few tweeds, and I'll call a little girl to send them later." ”

As she spoke, the two girls left, making Zhang Wei angry and hateful, angry that these two girls boldly gossiped, hated that she didn't see the faces of the two girls, otherwise, she had to use tongs to twist off the tongues of the two girls.

Sitting back on the bed, Zhang Wei hatefully recalled the conversation between the two girls, and thought of one of the girls saying that the eldest son of the Jun family was kicked and broke his life, and her teeth were itching, and she really wanted to catch someone and bite someone.

Zhang Wei was sure that the two girls were telling the truth, and there was indeed something wrong with this Jun family.

She was still thinking about how the Jun family could talk so well, no matter what she asked when she was engaged, she would agree, there must be something strange here, but her mother said that the eldest son of the Jun family did not learn and had no skills, and she was afraid that she would not be able to please a good bride, so she would be like this, and she would no longer be suspicious, where did she think that Jun Shaoxu would actually ...... She was deceived, and she was afraid that she would have to be widowed in this life.

The more Zhang Wei thought about it, the more angry she became, the more annoyed she became, she was already bold and not afraid of anything, at this time, she was angry, where could she take care of a lot, so she stood up and walked out.

Pushing open the door and standing in the courtyard, Zhang Wei stepped in and shouted: "Someone is coming, ......"

After shouting twice, the bridal girls who were sent out of the house by her hurried in one after another, and Zhang Wei looked angry: "Fight, let's go home." ”

"Big lady, this, this ......"

Zhang Wei's nurse Sun was so frightened that she almost knelt on the ground: "Can't it, the eldest lady is so easy to get out of the cabinet, what is there to take care of." ”

"Wait, I don't have the ability to handle." Zhang Wei sneered: "Mother Sun, why are you getting less and less courageous." ”

"It's not that the slave is cowardly, it's really ...... This is the Jun family, if the eldest lady is, if something happens, she will offend the monarch. Sun dragged Zhang Wei hard: "The slave also heard that something happened to the Jun family today, and the slave just inquired carefully, but it was just a few ordinary people looking for trouble, and there was nothing, the eldest lady, please calm down." ”

"Where did I mean that?" Zhang Wei stomped her feet angrily and whispered in Sun's ear: "Don't you think that our relationship with the Jun family is strange, I just understood, it turns out that there is something wrong with Jun Shaoxu." ”

Sun couldn't hear it loudly, and pulled Zhang Wei aside: "The slave also knows, Mrs. said that my uncle doesn't learn and has no skills, and he has some ...... Some are greedy and lustful, but it's okay. ”

Zhang Wei slapped Sun to the side, and said loudly angrily: "That's not the case at all, Jun Shaoxu was kicked and broke his life......"

In a word, not only the Sun family, but also a group of dowives were dumbfounded.

Sun hurriedly went to cover Zhang Wei's mouth: "Big lady, be cautious!" ”R1152
