604 Proceed to clean up
The girls in the second and fourth rooms went to inquire about the news, and when they came back from inquiring, they all felt chills.
"This, this dead girl, it's really a good way to coax so many people to listen to her ......" The second lady was shocked and angry, thinking of Hua Tian, her heart was itching with hatred.
The fourth lady was thrown in the carriage and was so frightened that she thought someone was going to kill her. This time he is back, and his face is white, and he has never come back to his senses.
Listening to the words of the second lady at this moment, the fourth lady gritted her teeth and said, "Not only is she a good means, isn't Da Lang a better means?" Isn't this couple very compatible? β
As he spoke, the resentment in his eyes became more obvious. Obviously, she still can't forget the incident when Zhong Li Che hurt herself with a palm.
"I don't know if she poured stun soup on many talented people in Beijing, making everyone respect her......" The second lady said, jealous. Because of her poor knowledge, she has always been looked down upon by her husband.
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a maid from outside to report, saying that the young lady's room was coming with the steward Lilac.
The second lady and the fourth lady glanced at each other, and immediately sneered, "She is here, I don't dare to do anything in my affection." But the maid is here, see if I don't kill it! β
The fourth lady waved her hand and asked the maid to bring people in.
Laiyi and Lilac waited for a while before the maid led them in.
When he came in, he saw several sturdy servants in the house, standing by with fierce eyes. When the two entered, the eyes of the servants fell on them.
"I've seen the second lady and the fourth ladyβ" Laiyi, Lilac and a few maids came forward to salute.
The second lady looked at everyone coldly, but she didn't let people get up, and made up her mind to embarrass a few people.
The fourth lady saw it. Cover your mouth and smile, said. "The second lady is the most courteous, and you are the servants of others. This etiquette is not very right, I am afraid that the second lady will be angry. β
The second lady snorted coldly, "Why should I be angry, these servants around me have all learned etiquette fiercely, and they can teach them just right." Although it is a little harsh, it is for their good in the end. β
As he spoke, he glanced at a few servant women on the side.
Laiyi was originally kneeling with his head down, but this time he raised his head. When he saw a few servant women coming over with fierce looks, he was not afraid, and even smiled on his face.
The second lady and the fourth lady were kind, but the slave and maid knew. However, the slave maid had learned etiquette from the grandmother sent by the queen's mother, and had also been praised by the grandmother. If the young lady of my family learns that the second lady is dissatisfied with our etiquette and goes to the palace to return to the queen's mother, the slave and maid are afraid that they will be punished. β
The few servants who had already walked up to Laiyi and had already stretched out their hands were stunned when they heard this. They all stopped and looked at the second and fourth ladies.
The second lady's face suddenly turned red, she didn't believe that Laiyi could learn etiquette from the grandmother in the palace, but this kind of thing would rather be believed than not. She didn't dare to come nonsense.
"Since you have learned from the grandmother in the palace, we can't say anything. But this woman can be taught? The fourth lady glanced at Laiyi. Look at Lilac, who is also kneeling on the ground.
Lilac looked up and smiled, "The slave also learned from Mama." At that time, our young lady had never been out of the cabinet, and she was friendly with Princess Shuhua. and got the queen's blue eyes......"
The rest, but no more talked.
The fourth lady was so angry that her lips trembled, but she couldn't say any more.
She also knew that these things could only be believed, not not. If there is nothing, everyone will be happy, but if there is? offended the people in the palace, and the head fell to the ground lightly.
Thinking about poor Mrs. Shi, she couldn't even get her corpse back, and Zhongli Erlang could only help her set up a well-dressed mound in the wilderness, so that she had to be a lonely ghost.
The second lady took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and looked at Laiyi and Lilac, "You all get up, Shicai is just a joke, don't care." β
Lai Yi and Lilac didn't say anything to her kind of cheekiness, they already knew that they would encounter something that made them laugh when they came here.
After the two got up, they took a few account books from the maids on the side, and looked at the second and fourth ladies.
One of them said, "The slave maid has something to report, and I also ask the second lady and the fourth lady to return the maid." β
The second lady and the fourth lady glanced at the two of them coldly, and the fourth lady said, "They are my maids, and they have my trust the most, so there is no need to send them back." β
Laiyi and Lilac glanced at each other, didn't insist any longer, and showed a look on their faces that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Seeing the smiles of the two of them, the second lady and the fourth lady beat a drum in their hearts, and regretted their actions a little. But since you say that you don't need to get rid of the maid, wouldn't it be a shame to change it?
Thinking of this, the two of them settled down, suppressed the remorse in their hearts, and looked at Laiyi and Lilac.
Laiyi and Lilac respectively took out a piece of deed paper from the account book and handed it to the second and fourth ladies.
Lai Yi said, "I heard that the second lady was very generous, and we didn't believe it at first, but later, we had to believe it. This kind of profit money is indeed easy to earn. β
The second lady's face changed, and she took the deed paper that she handed to her, "What nonsense are you talking about?" β
As he spoke, his eyes looked at the paper in his hand, and his face became more and more gloomy.
When the fourth lady heard the words "let go of the money", she was horrified, and her face couldn't help but change color, she looked at the deed paper that Lilac put in front of her, and didn't dare to reach out for a while.
"You all go outβ" Before the fourth lady could think clearly, the second lady's gloomy voice had already sounded.
The maids turned pale and went out trembling.
As maids, they don't want to hear such important things, because if they are not careful, they will be killed.
When all the maids went out, the four ladies slowly reacted and reached out to take the deed paper.
There are a few words on it, a signature at the place of payment, and a blood-red fingerprint.
The name of the payment is very familiar to the fourth lady, and it is one of her confidants who helps her to put money on the money.
Seeing that the faces of the two were like snow, Laiyi and Lilac glanced at each other. Laiyi said, "Except for this profiteering money." There are many more alongside, in the house of our young lady. There are detailed accounts. If the second and fourth ladies are free, they will come and sit in our young lady's room. β
After saying that, he turned around and planned to leave.
The second lady gritted her teeth, but her whole body was weak, she saw that Lilac and Laiyi were about to leave, her eyes were red, and she said in horror, "How are you doing?" β
Laiyi turned around and smiled at the second lady, "How is the second lady?" β
"If we hadn't found it earlier, we would have dealt with it sooner. This matter is in the hands of the saint or the prince, what does the second lady think can be? Lilac said.
When the second lady and the fourth lady heard this, their legs and feet were even weaker, and they trembled.
The fourth lady said, "We all know what Liu Niang is doing this for. What Liuniang wants to do in the future, we will fully support it. β
Laiyi raised her eyebrows and looked at the fourth lady. A look of disbelief.
The second lady listened to the words of the fourth lady, and thought of what Lai Yi said, except for the money that was released, the accounts were all in Hua Tian's hands. suddenly became desperate, and then nodded, "Liuniang just wants to be a housekeeper." We're here to support it. β
"What should I do, the second lady and the fourth lady have a good discussion. Of course. If you have any doubts in your heart, you can go to the young lady to look at the accounts. "Lai Yi finished speaking. He Lilac nodded at the second and fourth ladies and went out together.
The second lady and the fourth lady were left in the room, and the two looked at each other with horror in their eyes.
"If such a handle falls into their hands, I'm afraid I'll have to listen to her from now on." The second lady's face shriveled and said.
The fourth lady frowned, "I don't know how she found out about this news...... If you can find this, you can definitely find the rest, aren't we stripped naked in front of her......"
As he spoke, his voice weakened and he was desperate.
The deed paper was still there, and the second lady picked it up and took a closer look, with a smile on her face that was more ugly than crying, "Even if a few people were killed and asked them to find out, what else can we do?" β
"If you ask someone, can you get rid of it?" The fourth lady suddenly raised her head, looked at the second lady, and asked.
The second lady shook her head, "I'm afraid that they will find out everything, we begged someone, how much price do we have to pay to suppress it?" Besides, you see who can go against Hua Liuniang in Beijing today? What do we have that would make people want to do this for us? β
"Could it be that from now on, we have to listen to Hua Liuniang?" The fourth lady said sadly.
Although they are all concubines, after all, they marry in and have a dowry. It's also convenient to do something in private. Moreover, in recent years, the old Zhenguo Duchess's health has become worse and worse, and they can move a lot more in their hands.
"You can also keep food and clothing worry-free, as long as we don't make trouble, Hua Liuniang must also provide for us for her reputation." The second lady said, "What's more, I've been worried about the money, thinking about how to hide it." Now that they have been asked to check, it is better to break it off, and throw the responsibility to them. β
The fourth lady looked at the second lady deeply, "You are really willing to ......"
"What else could it be? At that time, the news of the release of the money will spread, and we are afraid that our fate will be worse than that of the Shi family. has lived to the age of now, are you willing to have the shame to break the net with Hua Liuniang? The second lady thought about it, and she was not so frightened, and sneered.
The fourth lady was paralyzed, sat down slowly, and said with a wry smile, "Where do I have the guts to be willing?" β
The second lady nodded, thought about it, and said, "It's just that which handles fell into Hua Liuniang's hands, let's check it out." Tomorrow, you and I will go to the door together to take a look, how are you? β
The fourth lady agreed, said a few more words, and went away absent-mindedly.
The next day, the two of them went to Hua Tian's garden together, and after reading all the information Hua Tian had collected, the slightest fluke was gone, and they had to obey each other.
The two of them also ignored the identity of their elders, bowed solemnly, apologized for slandering Hua Tian in front of the guests before, and said that they would listen to Hua Tian in everything in the future.
Seeing that the two of them were interested, Hua Tian didn't say much, only said that when they were the housekeepers, they asked the two of them to take care of them.
She is not afraid that the two will rebel in the end, because she has evidence in her hands, unless the two of them are shameless and disregard the future of their children, they can only be controlled forever.
After hearing this, the second lady and the fourth lady nodded again and again, saying that they would definitely order their subordinates to be obedient.
Seeing that Hua Tian's face was acceptable, the second lady said tentatively, "In the past, we were greedy and shameless, but now that Liuniang has found out, we will stop from now on and accumulate some virtue." I don't know what Liuniang plans to do? β
Hua Tian listened to what the two of them said well, but he was spurned in his heart, what kind of accumulation of virtue is simply a joke. If the two want to accumulate virtue, how can they do such a thing as cutting off their children and grandchildren?
But as long as the two of them can be obedient from now on, she doesn't mind what they say, and immediately replied, "These are the debts you owe, and I can't cross them." β
Hearing this, the faces of the second lady and the fourth lady were a little ugly.
Hua Tian admired the faces of the two of them, and then continued, "It's just that since I know, it's not good to pretend not to know. Now I will propose a way to see if you are willing or not. β
The second lady and the fourth lady looked at each other, "I don't know what the method is?" β
"Before, you gave away the money, and you killed several of them. If the saint or the imperial history knows, it must be the consequence of the head falling to the ground. Today's law, only ideas to make up for it, I don't know if you are willing or not? β
Hearing that they wanted to make up for it, the first thing the two thought of was that they needed money, and their faces became even more ugly at the moment, and they said in unison, "We don't have any private property, I'm afraid we can't make up for it." β
As he spoke, he couldn't stop scolding the stewards who were unreliable at the beginning, and also scolded those who lost their lives, how they wanted to make trouble, causing them to be so miserable now.
Hua Tian smiled slightly, "Since I have found out all your things, I should also know the geometry of your private property and what you have done-"
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused to look at the second lady and the fourth lady.
The faces of the second and fourth ladies suddenly turned blue-gray, and they did not dare to speak.
They have also taken action against Hua Tian many times in private. Hua Tian said this, doesn't it mean that she also knows this?
They are hostile to each other, and now Hua Tian has their handle, if he wants to kill them, just raise his hand.
Without money and can't afford to pay these words, the second and fourth ladies don't dare to say it anymore.
Hua Tian looked at the faces of the two and said, "But the two are the elders of Liuniang, we can be regarded as both prosperous and lossless, and Liuniang will never sit back and watch the two of them have an accident." β
After hearing this, the second lady and the fourth lady looked at Hua Tian expectantly.
Hua Tian said, "I don't dare to fool around with such things as letting out profits." Now the only way is for the two aunts to testify and find more people who lend money to use as a surrender. As for those who lost their lives, the two aunts gave up their wealth and apologized to appease the resentment in the hearts of the people. β
The second lady and the fourth lady looked at each other, knowing that this was the only way, but they didn't want to speak. (To be continued......)
