When Ma heard that Rong Zheng sent one of his subordinates to the outside shop to take care of the accounts, he was a little surprised, and said to Mama Zhou: "Our third young lady is a little interesting, what about the people who are in a hurry to cultivate themselves so quickly?" ”

Mama Zhou said: "I can't see that she has this vision." Mrs. should be careful. ”

"How can I not be careful, if you hadn't been confused in front of you, I would still have such a hairy girl in my eyes." Ma said that Mama Zhou couldn't raise her head.

Qiaoyu reported outside: "Madam, the third lady is here." ”

Ma Shi stopped the topic and said, "I don't know what to toss." ”

Rong Zheng opened the curtain and walked in, and came forward to salute with a calm face.

Ma Shi saw that Rong Zheng was wearing a ferret coat, and said with a smile: "Are you all wearing big wool clothes?" That's a good leather. She thought in her heart that she would also make one for Rong Sheng.

Obviously, Rong Zheng didn't come to discuss dressing with Ma, and he didn't say hello, so he sat down and said, "Madam, Zhuang Shang has brought up this year's account, and Mrs. still has a copy here, do you think when will the account be reconciled?" ”

Ma Shi was slightly shocked, and Xindao Rongzheng finally came to this point with her. She held the dowry left by the Qi family in her hand, and she helped manage the entry and exit of the two Zhuangzi for five years, in addition to this there are two shops, the shops are rented out, and a lot of rent is collected every year. Naturally, she didn't take out this money completely, and it filled her own purse.

Ma Shi looked at Rong Zheng's eyes like a clear spring and hesitated, and then said after a while: "Are you in a hurry here?" ”

Rong Zheng smiled and said, "How long does it take for Mrs. to prepare for this?" ”

Ma Shi thought for a while and said, "Ten days." ”

Rong Zheng is not stupid, knowing that Ma will find an expert here to help her smooth out the things on the books, she will not give Ma this opportunity, so she said calmly: "No, it's been too long." It's better to deal with it before my father comes back. ”

Ma knew that Rong Zheng now had the confidence to talk to her about this, she was holding something that was unfavorable to her in her hands, and she didn't know who was behind her to give her a trick, so she couldn't let Ma have the spirit to deal with it.

Rong Zheng expressed his meaning, and got up and said, "Madam, at the latest evening." Ask the maid to bring the ledger. The steward is already in my hands. ”

Ma's face turned pale, she knew that if she didn't agree at this time, Rong Zheng would threaten again. Once upon a time, sticking to her was pampered and indulgent. Miss Rongsan, who looks like a silly girl, looks like this?

Mars didn't squeak. Rong Zheng didn't wait for Ma to say anything, and went out on his back.

When Rong Zheng came out, he met Rong Sheng and the little maid kicking the shuttlecock in the yard, and then the shuttlecock accidentally hit Rong Zheng's head, Rong Zheng exhaled "pain" and hurriedly covered his forehead. Shisu saw that Rong Zheng's originally smooth forehead immediately turned red.

The little maids' faces were all white with fright, and they were panicked. Don't dare to come forward. Rong Sheng looked at the actions of the maids, and he hated that iron could not become steel. I had to come forward by myself and said with a smiling face: "Sister, I'm sorry." The maids didn't see you coming out, not intentionally. ”

Rong Zheng rubbed herself, she glanced at Rong Sheng, she has always been very cold to this half-sister because of Ma's relationship. She clearly saw the apology on Rong Sheng's face. If you follow your previous temper, you must have a trouble with your sister and the maids.

At this moment, Ma suddenly stood under the window and shouted, "Sister Sheng, what are you doing outside." Come in yet! ”

Rong Sheng bowed and said, "Sister, I'm really sorry." ”

Rong Zheng didn't say anything in the end. So he went back with Shiso.

When she came back, she took a mirror to look at it, and sure enough, she saw that the sore spot on her forehead was red. Zi Su said beside him: "It doesn't matter Miss, it's okay to come tomorrow." ”

Rong Zheng didn't take it seriously, and said, "It doesn't matter. ”

Zi Su couldn't help but be a little worried: "Miss, did you say that Mrs. will send the account books truthfully?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "She will send it, you don't have to worry about this." ”

Zi Su smiled: "I'm not worried, if the young lady is not sure, she will definitely not come to the door to ask for it." But the young lady brought the account book, what are you going to do next? ”

Rong Zheng knew that there must be something wrong with the Ma family, and there was not much left when these mother's dowries in her previous life were in her hands. She complained a little about this to her father. Why does the mother's dowry have to be taken care of by the Ma family, even if it can't be handed over to himself for the time being, it can also be entrusted to a reliable person of the Qi family to help take care of it, so that it will not fall into the hands of others. It is said that his father trusts Ma too much.

What Rong Zheng has to do now is to take back the right to take care of his mother's dowry from Ma. If you can hold it in your own hands, of course, it's good, but if you can't grasp it, you have to change to a reliable person.

At dusk, Ruby brought the ledger over.

Rong Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "You go back and tell Mrs. Sù, and say that the account book will be put here for the time being." I'll talk about it after reading it, and if I don't know anything, I'll naturally ask my wife. ”

Ruby bowed her head in agreement.

Rong Zheng flipped through the ledgers on the table at will. I didn't prepare for a detailed study. Because the answer is obvious.

"You go find a box."

Shiso went to the storeroom to look for the box. Xiao Wang walked in, saw the account books piled up on the table, and said with a smile: "Miss reconciles." ”

Rong Zheng nodded and said, "You don't need to know the answer to me." Why did the nurse come here? ”

Xiao Wang said: "I haven't come in to see Miss for two days, are you okay?" ”

Rong Zheng asked Ruyi to bring tea, and here he spoke with Xiao Wang: "The things on the village have been delivered, and the account has also come out." It may be busy for two days, but this year has passed so fast. ”

Xiao Wang said: "Yes, Miss will be fourteen in the coming year." She was worried about Rong Zheng's family affairs.

Shisu found a suitable petty official suitcase with a lock on it.

Rong Zheng asked Shisu to lock the ledger inside, and she kept the key herself.

Xiao Wang knew that some Rong Zheng and Ma had already stood on opposite sides, although it was a good thing that Rong Zheng could stand up on his own. But after all, Ma is now Rong Zheng's mother, and Xiao Wang feels that if he makes too much trouble, he is afraid that Rong Zheng will suffer in the end. Therefore, it is inevitable to say two words of consolation.

"Miss, the old slave has a few words to say to Miss. Miss might as well think about it. ”

Rong Zheng said: "If the nurse has anything to say, just say it directly." ”

Xiao Wang said: "The old slave has trespassed." Speaking of which, Miss has changed a lot this year, and she is more mature and stable than before, and she also knows these economic affairs. At first, the old slave was still very worried, but it seems that the young lady has figured out a set by herself. I heard that you brought Lei Bo to let him go to the shop to learn and do things, which is very good. Lei Bo is a young lady's person, and he will always have something useful in the future. It's just what the old slave wants to say. Could the lady's movement be so big that it sore on some people? ”

Rong Zheng naturally understood what Xiao Wang meant, and said with a smile: "What if I step on other people's sore spots, I just want to get back what belongs to me." I don't want to live a stupid life anymore. ”

Xiao Wang said: "There is nothing wrong with these. It's just that the prejudice between the young lady and the wife is too deep. In the end, I am afraid that my wife will give the young lady small shoes to wear. ”

"The damage to her own interests is that she didn't do it right before."

"Miss, your future family affairs are still in the hands of your wife, if she tells Miss an unreliable family affair at that time, won't she ruin Miss's life? Although the lord also has to take care of this matter, the lord is now in office after all. If the wife plays any tricks, I am afraid that the master will not be able to reach the whip by then, and these have to be considered. ”

Rong Zheng was silent. In her previous life, she was planted in the hands of the Liao family, although she could not have anything to do with the Liao family in this life, but she was afraid that there would be a second Liao family, what should she do at that time.

"Nurse, do you think it's possible for me to stop now? If I can't even protect what my mother left me, if I can't even protect the people around me, what else will I do as the third lady of the Rong family. The things I had in my hands were enough for her to completely lose her status in front of her father. She should be more afraid of me now than I am afraid of her. I don't want her to do anything. I just want to take back what belongs to me. ”

When Xiao Wang heard Rong Zheng say this, he felt that it was right, so he said again: "Is the young lady going to send these to the master?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "You have to look at the shape shì." ”

The Rong Zheng in front of him made Xiao Wang's family a little incomprehensible.

Since Ma handed over the account book, he has been a little nervous, and he can't sleep well at night. She was waiting for Rong Zheng to come to the door to settle accounts with her, but four or five days passed, thinking that Rong Zheng should finish the accounts, why didn't there be any movement at all?

In the afternoon of this day, Rong Zheng had nothing to do and went to visit Huiqiu.

Huiqiu was sitting in the warm pavilion and was immersed in needlework, when she saw Rong Zheng coming. Hurriedly stood up.

"How are you doing?"

Huiqiu nodded and said, "It's just that the little guy in the belly is starting to get naughty." Huiqiu said this with a happy smile on her face.

"You count the movements every day to see when the baby is most active. If something is wrong one day, you must ask Zhou Niangzi to come in and show you. ”

"Thank you for the reminder, I'll definitely pay attention." Huiqiu said. But there are some doubts in my heart, Rong Zheng is still an unmarried woman, how can she understand these things?

Rong Zheng didn't notice that she had missed something, and she glanced at the needle and thread in Huiqiu's hand again, the big red silk cloth was tied with the pattern of lotus lotus leaves and carp, and the lotus flowers were rolling with dewdrops. The scales of the carp are also very neatly embroidered. It's also shiny. Rong Zheng couldn't help but praise: "Your hands are so skillful." The embroidered flowers are just like the real thing. It's so cute to have such a small pocket. ”

Huiqiu smiled: "Kill the time and do whatever you want." If you like it, when you get married and conceive a son, I will do these needles and threads for you. ”

Rong Zheng saw that the things used by these children softened into a ball of water.

"When the weather is not so cold, you should go to the yard and walk more, I heard that this is good for production."

Huiqiu nodded and said, "Mrs. Zhou said the same thing." ”

Rong Zheng sat at Huiqiu's place for nearly an hour before going back.

When she returned to her room, there was no one quietly, and she was a little tired and wanted to lie down. I found the pillow lying across the bed and the futon rolled up haphazardly.

Rong Zheng shouted: "Ruyi! No one answered her, and she called Ruyi again, and then Qingfang came in, gasping and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Miss?" ”

Rong Zheng was puzzled and hurriedly asked, "Did anyone enter my house just now?" ”

Qingfang shook her head blankly and said, "The slave doesn't know. The slave watched the flowers in the backyard. ”

"Where's Ruyi?"

Qingfang said: "Didn't Miss tell Sister Ruyi to send something to the fourth lady when she went out?" ”

"Was there no one in the room just now?"

Qingfang hung her head.

Rong Zheng said angrily: "What am I raising you for, I don't know if there are thieves in the house." ”

Qingfang didn't dare to say a word. Shisu heard the movement and asked, "Did you enter the thief?" ”

"Who's to say it isn't."

Shisu was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "I have to clean up the things quickly and see what is missing." Then he said to Qingfang again: "What are you doing stupidly." ”

Who entered her house and what the purpose was, Rong Zheng was clear. She waved her hand and said, "No need, you guys go down." It's just that in the future, it must be clear who is on duty in the house, and no one can be seen. ”

Shisu and Qingfang both lowered their heads, thinking that it was good that there was nothing wrong.

Zi Su said: "Miss really doesn't look at what she lost?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "Those two things are still there." It looks like Daddy is coming back, and some people can't sit still. It's kind of interesting. She thought about the cause and effect, and said to Zisu: "In the future, except for you, Ruyi, and the nurse, don't let anyone else come in casually in my room." ”

Shiso should be. Suddenly remembering what happened just now, he asked cautiously, "Does Miss suspect the people below?" ”

Rong Zheng said: "That's it, I only believe in you, now is an extraordinary time, you pay attention to it for me." ”

Gradually, it is the end of the year, and Ma has to be busy preparing for the New Year's gifts of each family, and the third room sent the account book over, and she has no time to care about Rong Zheng at the moment. The Qi family gave the New Year's gift to Mrs. Shen. Her intention is also very clear, she came to Ma Shi several times, and met Du Shi several times. They all vaguely felt that Ma didn't take her words to heart, so he rushed to say good things to Ma.

"Mrs. Ma, our little five is thanks to your help in saying a few kind words to the third wife. When it is done, I will thank you very much. ”

Second Mrs. Shen is a little anxious, why hasn't there been any movement after so long? Is she not trusting anyone?

Ma originally wanted to take this opportunity to knock on Mrs. Shen's second wife, but now if he doesn't take action, he is afraid that the cooked duck will fly, so he smiled and said: "It's been too busy these days." Don't worry, Mrs. Uncle, I will definitely help you speak. In the first lunar month, you brought you little five to us to see. On the one hand, I help to be a matchmaker, and on the other hand, I have to look at it from the third room. ”

When Mrs. Shen heard this, she immediately said, "This is not difficult. It just so happened that their school was also on vacation. (To be continued.) )
