Chapter 115: Oath

Wang Weiping finally rushed back at dinnertime.

He entered the door and handed Wang Jing a letter with Wen first.

The letter was written by Wei Shanshan, with only one sentence: The city of Chuzhou was in an uproar, and Brother Ling and Miss Wang were engaged immediately.

Wang Jing laughed angrily, this old lady is simply invincible in the world, and she actually thought of using her brother to calm down yesterday's scandal.

Before she could deal with the matter, someone came to tell her, "The old lady has invited the girl to the upper room." ”

Good! She was about to look for the old lady.

When Wang Jing arrived, the people of the Wang family had already arrived, and the men sat on the side and the women sat on the side. Liu Yongan also came, needless to say, he must have been called over.

is so exciting, I am afraid that Mrs. Yu has already thought of countermeasures in Zhao's marriage.

"The fifth child has always come and gone without a trace over the years, which makes my heart always hang. You are also a big man, and your mother's dowry has been in my hands for so many years, and it should be handed over to you and your daughter-in-law to take care of. Mrs. Yu said earnestly, "I'm also old, and I don't have much to do." I've always felt low on energy in the past two years, but now that you're finally back, you should share some of it with your mother. ”

Without waiting for Wang Weiping to agree or not, he directly took out a few thin pages of paper, "This is your mother's dowry list, you can take a look first." I'll let the stewards reconcile with you. ”

Wang Jing said secretly: This old lady is really old, and she must have known that Wang Weiping was going to Zhao's house to get the dowry list, so she handed over the things first and gained a good reputation.

"I heard that when Mrs. Zhao married into the Wang family, she had ten miles of red makeup, and the dowry alone was one hundred and twenty units, and ten thousand taels of silver." Wang Jing said with a smile.

Wang Weiping took the list and handed it to Wen, and Wang Jing happened to be sitting next to her, so he leaned over to take a look.

All the gold, silver, jade, and antique jewelry remarked two An "burials", and Wang Jing's heart moved, "May I ask the old lady, how much silver did Mrs. Zhao lose in total for these dowries?" ”

Old Mrs. Yu looked at her and smiled kindly, "Not much, more than 100,000 taels." ”

"I wonder if after your mansion divides the family property, can the master pay off the money owed on Mrs. Zhao's dowry?"

"This, I won't know until I wait until I divide it, the property of the Wang family has a special steward to take care of, which is all explained by the old lady before his death, including the old lady's ladder, there are special people to manage it."

"Yo, there are special people to take care of everything, but Mrs. Yu can still come up with special money to give porridge every year, you are really capable." Wang Jing said, "I'm so big, I haven't seen a split family, I don't know if the old lady can open my eyes." ”

Since beating Mrs. Yu to take out Zhao's dowry, Wang Jing said nothing polite, but the other party did not show any signs of anger.

"Come on, let the housekeeper on Sister Zhao's side bring over the account book and hand it over to Miss Jing for a look." Old Lady Yu instructed casually.

As soon as she heard this, Wang Jing understood that this fake account was estimated to be very clever, and she would definitely not be able to find out anything for a while.

Wang Jing smiled: "Then the master is willing to hand over the account to me, right?"

Wang Weiping had been studying behind closed doors before he left home, and after the accident, he was exiled and never took care of his chores; For a girl like Wen's, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting must be good, but it must be difficult to reconcile.

Wang Weiping said: "Since the girl is a student of Clumsy Jing, she should serve Mr. ”

Wang Jing said: "If you don't work for the two masters, it's better to hand over the accounts after the separation of the master and wife to me." ”

Wang Weiping stood up and saluted and said, "So, there is Miss Lao." ”

Wang Jing didn't even avoid it, accepted it directly, and said politely: "Mr. treats me like this, and I should do my best in my later life." For people like Mrs. Yu, she doesn't want to be vain anymore.

It was the people in the second room, and when they saw Wang Jing taking the initiative to take the matter on themselves, their faces suddenly relaxed.

"Don't wait for Jingjing to finish reading, and you say that she is too young to count, so please ask someone else to see it?" Mrs. Six said.

Wang Weiping said with a smile: "A gentleman is a promise, and it is difficult to chase a horse." ”

The sixth lady covered her mouth and smiled: "Then I will wait here to witness a gentleman like the fifth master." ”

As he spoke, a group of stewards had already arrived, each holding a large stack of ledgers in their hands.

Wang Jing took a copy in her hand, turned two pages slightly, and suddenly smiled: "I am only thirteen years old this year, and no matter how clear the accounts are, the slaves are not allowed to cheat from the price, why don't the old lady give me two bills for the daily purchase of your mansion as a reference?"

As soon as these words came out, many people looked at her angrily.

"Miss Jing is a guest, how can you interfere in the affairs of our house?" Mrs. Six said angrily.

Wen said: "Brother and sister, the fifth master has entrusted this matter to her, and you also agreed to it first. ”

"That's just your mother's account, what does it have to do with our house's accounts?" Mrs. Six asked rhetorically.

When Wang Jing heard this, she knew that she had been right, and the other party really did something from the price.

"If you don't want to give, there are so many families in Chuzhou, and it's the same for me to find others. I don't believe that what kind of account can lose 30,000 taels of dowry to more than 100,000 yuan. If you can't do it, won't you close the shop? After the master takes over, it is better to send all these slaves who are greedy for the master's property to the official. She said with a smile, "The prefect of Chuzhou only took office in the spring, and his foundation was already unstable. ”

She had already expected that the Yu family would not expect Wang Weiping to come back at this time, even if the fake account was done before, and they made up for it after they came, but the government definitely didn't make up for it. When the new official of the Jiang Governor's Mansion takes office, he must order a few fires to burn it, if there is a local big family Wang who commits a crime in the front, wouldn't it just kill the chicken and set an example for the monkey?

Mrs. Yu was a shrewd person, and she immediately understood what she meant.

She's threatening her!

A thirteen-year-old yellow-haired girl actually threatened her!

How dare she?

But it was this little girl who only made a scandal in the family yesterday, and the idea of burying her halfway to intercept and kill her was also disrupted.

When Wang Weiping came back, he was sent back by Liu Chengfang's nephew Liu Yonghui, this kid is a practitioner and has an official body, and she invited someone to kill her when she was full.

If the other party is really a little girl who doesn't understand the world, how could Governor Liu let them come to the Wang family!

I only blame myself for being too calm all these years, and I have been careless and underestimate the enemy!

If you have the infamy of taking a dowry, won't even your children and grandchildren be ridiculed? The big deal is to give up this part of the property and replace the account book with the real one in the middle of the night. Anyway, those shops were all replaced by her people, even if Wen took over, how could they listen to her?

"What a little girl, just a joke will annoy you." Mrs. Yu laughed, "Where there is a loss of more than 100,000 yuan, young people should take their time in doing things, and if they don't understand, ask the shopkeeper." Although the old body is not talented, no matter how much he will lose Sister Zhao's dowry, otherwise how will he face the old man under Jiuquan. ”

When Wang Jing heard this, she didn't hold on to it.

"It's still the old lady's high style, which makes the younger generation admire it tightly." She said, "Tomorrow I will follow Mr. Wen to inspect the shop while checking the tent. ”

Everything is too much.

Wang Jing was also reluctant to push her too hard, lest the dog jump off the wall in a hurry.

Old Mrs. Yu's face was already stiff with a smile, but she had to continue to laugh: "You solid-eyed child, so dedicated to the sake of the fifth daughter-in-law, I am happy for them from the bottom of my heart." ”

She said this on her lips, but she hated the Liu brothers and sisters in her heart! Secretly swore an oath: Believe it or not, this time the old body will pull you off the horse together, and let the emperor punish your nine clans! (To be continued.) )
