Or something else, but Qin Yu could guess it.

"Could it be that Yao Mansion can only take out such an object?"

Qin Yu said slowly, with a thoughtful expression on her face.

She was slightly stunned for a moment, thought about it, and was a little incredulous: "It's unlikely, although Yao Mansion is not as good as Tongfu, but the Mansion should be very wealthy, and it won't say that you can't even give away a thing." ”

Hearing this, Qin Yu's face showed two meanings: "Miss also said that Mrs. Tong and you are not what the people in the house see, but Mrs. is so enthusiastic about your marriage, there must be something in it that others don't know." ”

"The slave maid just thought it was strange, but now she looks at it, but she can't be wrong, what Yao Gongzi said is already understood, but the objects that are given away are still like this, is it possible that Miss Yao is unwilling to give good things to others?"

She was stunned again, she obviously didn't expect this to be the reason at all.

Qin Yu thought about it and frowned: "The slave maid doesn't know if she is lying or not, but such things are indeed rare, and the things between the mansions are indeed a little vague, and Miss Yao's slave and maid are not so reluctant to make a move." ”

After listening, her heart was slightly cold.

She squinted, thought about it carefully, reminisced for a moment, and then raised her head to look at Qin Yu again.

There are two possibilities.

"If this is the case, and Yao Mansion is just holding on to face like this now, then the intention of marrying Miss is worth considering."

"Moreover, the slave maid thinks that the reason why Yaofu is so Dao is also intriguing."

She couldn't help but turn cold when she heard this, and said, "Is it that my mother knows the bends here?" ”

"Not really." Qin Yu shook her head. He also said: "The slave maid is just guessing, the slave maid doesn't dare to assert Madame's affairs, but the slave and maid feel that Madame also thinks so, as for the reason, I'm afraid I don't know." ”

Tong Yao frowned, her face was a little bad, with a slight paleness. He added: "Yaofu has reached this point. Some pestering people seem to want to pull the Tongfu to marry, and the slave maid feels strange. ”

"Why did it really come to this point, the slave still wants the young lady to think about the root cause."

Yaofu's status now is not low. Although it's not a high-ranking position, it's still a little ridiculous to say that things that don't give away.

It can only be said that Yaofu is really poor now.

I can't do anything to save face. Don't mention your daily life.

Tong Yao felt a little dizzy in her head, and what happened was already a little unexpected for her. Originally, she just thought that Mrs. Tong had a soft spot for Yao Mansion because she had some kind of little abacus, but looking at it like this, Yao Mansion was a problem.

"Miss, do you remember a few years ago, what happened to Yong'an Hou in Beijing?"

It's a no-brainer. She didn't know how to answer for a while, but raised her eyebrows, "How is this?" ”

Nature knows. That incident was so loud that the rumor could be heard a little. It was said that the Marquis of Yong'an secretly sold illicit salt and colluded with many henchmen, which made the emperor angry.

Qin Yu nodded, pursed her lips and said, "Miss, don't you think things are strange......?" ”

Odd?

She frowned, thought for a moment, but didn't feel that something was wrong.

"The Yao Mansion has risen extremely fast in recent years, but if you look closely, there is no background behind the Yao family, but it has risen so fast, except for the help of the family, there is only one thing."

Qin Yu pursed her lips and smiled, she was slightly stunned, watching the corners of the other party's lips slowly spit out two words.

"Silver."

……

"Silver." Tong Yao smiled slightly and said lightly, "My daughter guessed that the Yao Mansion should have something to do with the matter of private salt." There was a hint of meaning in his tone.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Master Tong with a shocked look on his face, obviously a little unresponsive.

"Father shouldn't be surprised." Tong Yao nodded and continued.

"That's right, the Yao Mansion should have had a lot of money in its hands at the beginning."

Master Tong didn't slow down for a long time, and looked at Tong Yao's eyes as if he didn't know her.

Yes, he never thought of it.

It's not that I'm surprised by the things in Yao's Mansion, but I'm just surprised that Tong Yao was able to tell the truth about it.

There was an eerie silence in the study.

"Smack." A dangling brush rolled from the corner of the table a few times before falling to the ground, interrupting the silence.

Old Man Tong suddenly felt a slight choking in his throat, and he had some difficulty between swallowing and breathing, and he seemed to not know how to speak.

"My daughter thinks that why Yao Mansion has a lot of silver, and he has no background but his official position is promoted so quickly, it is because of the matter of private salt." Tong Yao smiled slightly, pursed the corners of her lips, and said, "It's just that the Yao Mansion is in trouble now." ”

As soon as the words fell, Master Tong stared at each other with a somewhat secretive look.

"Go on."

Tong Yao nodded, and said: "Actually, things are not difficult to guess, my father's way of handling the case has always been decisive, and my daughter has been staying in the study for a few days, and I have never seen my father not think deeply. ”

"It's a matter of importance, and if it weren't for that, my father wouldn't be so difficult to decide."

"Actually, here's the funny thing."

As he spoke, Tong Yao took out some bits and pieces from the small purse on his waist, put them on the corner of the table, and spread them out in front of Master Tong's eyes.

"This is a gift from Miss Yao to her daughter a few days ago."

"The slave maid in the room accidentally broke something, and the daughter got closer, but when she looked closely, she felt that something was wrong."

"How can such an inferior thing be given as a gift?"

Tong Yao had a hint of helplessness on her face, and said, "There must be some reason." ”

I just saw the scattered foam scattered on the table, which was extremely dim.

Master Tong's gaze was cast on the pile of debris, and his eyes were thoughtful.

"Since the father has made a decision, naturally the daughter is just adding to the snake." Tong Yao pointed to the things on the table with his fingers, and said: "It's about private salt, no wonder my father should be cautious, a few years ago, there was a matter of Yong'an Hou in the court, and my father was afraid that he was a little hesitant." ”

"Yao's move is not good, since it was involved with private salt at the beginning, it is natural to be scared at this time, but the daughter looks at the extremely close contact between her mother and Mrs. Yao during this time."

"What does my daughter think, Yao Mansion has no background, so where does the money used for official career come from?"

"It's fast and convenient, and the number is large, and during this period of time, Beijing is under strict investigation, and more or less exposed (to be continued.) )>
