Li Changqing raised his eyes and glanced at her, picked up the teacup, and gently twisted the steaming tea leaves on it with the tea lid, and suddenly a fragrance came to his nose.

took a sip, and a fragrance suddenly surrounded his lips and teeth, and then he said leisurely: "Presumably, when Steward Liu told the old lady that Aunt Wang was greedy for 67,893 taels of silver, he should also focus on mentioning the financial deficit in the house?" ”

"How do you know the ...... finances?" When the old lady said so, she suddenly remembered that she was anxious, and she had prematurely exposed the financial crisis in the house.

"I don't know, it's just a guess, although the house has been calm recently, but the amount of food and clothing has decreased a lot compared with the same period last year, besides, my father is also in urgent need of money to take care of the relationship recently, and the third prince is ready to move, and he offended the prince last time, so he spent a lot of money just to clean up the aftermath."

As he spoke, he took another sip, and the smell of tea became stronger and stronger.

"Grandma, this tea is delicious, but it is not as good as the tip of the hair in Aunt Wang's house? That can use the first or second leaf that has just grown in a few days before and after "Qingming" and the leaves have not been expanded, requiring the leaves to be small and short, tender and green evenly. And the tenderness and length of the tea are beyond the standard, and the color is also uniform, and it is carefully made after four processes, such as high-temperature killing, low-temperature rolling, kneading and lifting, and timely drying. ”

Li Changqing said, but observed Xia He's expression, but saw that she seemed to have received a little hint, but still did not speak.

Holding it steadily, I originally thought that she was arrogant and domineering before, and she should not be able to resist the temptation of falling into the well at this moment, but she never thought that she could still stand there quietly and not answer the phone.

Good. Li Changqing secretly praised in his heart.

"It seems that I have been deceived by a white-eyed wolf in the past few years!" After listening to Li Changqing's words, Mrs. Li said angrily.

"The old lady is angry, although the second lady is polite and polite to you on weekdays, the slave maid has secretly seen her move things to the Ning Xiang Garden several times, all of which are valuable gold and silver jewelry."

Well, there is growth!

Li Changqing secretly praised in his heart.

As soon as Mrs. Li heard this, she immediately slapped the table, "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" ”

When Xia He heard the old lady's words, his body immediately shook, and he shrank up in fright, and said in a trembling voice: "The slave maid thought that the second lady had given you?" ”

"You're my big girl, don't you even have the certainty of this kind of thing?"

Xia He looked at Li Changqing for help, with expectation in his eyes, and with clarity.

"Grandma, be careful of getting angry." Li Changqing stood up, walked to the old lady, and then continued: "I'm afraid this girl is also afraid that you are worried, and now I know that Aunt Wang is indeed greedy for money, so I remembered this matter, just mention it, after all, the girl next to grandma, only you know in your heart that this girl is loyal." ”

"Alas, it's still you girl's confidant."

said to Xia He next to him: "Forget it, this time the girl will intercede for you, and if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you have to keep an eye on me." ”

"Yes, yes, old lady, the slave knows about it, and she must be careful in the future, and tell you immediately when she encounters this kind of thing."

Xia He replied respectfully, gathered himself and stood behind the old lady again, listening with bated breath.

The old lady said "um", and then asked Li Changqing: "This mansion will let you and Aunt Liu take care of it in the near future, seeing the winter, I am afraid that the food and clothing in this mansion will cost more, you see ......." ”

The old lady is also a good person, and what she said in the first paragraph is easy to understand, but the second paragraph is silent.

Li Changqing naturally understood what she meant, and clearly wanted her 10,000 taels of gold.

sneered in her heart, when she was just eating, Changhong had already reminded her that this money could not be given.

I didn't think about it just now, I'm afraid Changhong accidentally heard something, so he whispered to her.

couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, the condensed breath slowly eased, and a smile appeared on his face: "This is time to add something to the house, grandma don't worry." ”

Li Changqing's words were very subtle and ambiguous.

I didn't say whether the subsidy was subsidized or not, and I didn't say what was added.

The old lady was overjoyed, although she didn't say it very clearly, but as long as she loosened her mouth, it would not be too late to finish it slowly and little by little.

As everyone knows, the old lady is really whimsical, and when she stays in the back, where will she give a penny to this house?

Her hatred for them, her monstrous resentment for killing her mother, could not relieve her hatred in her heart.

Yes, it's time for Li Changqing to add some things to this mansion, but these things are not money, but revenge from today, step by step, one by one, slowly pulling all of them into the underworld and into the eighteenth layer of hell.

Li Changqing stood up and picked up the cup, the tea leaves had cooled, and she sipped into her mouth, with a hint of bitterness, but she still swallowed slowly, the tea crossed her throat and entered her stomach, this astringent feeling slowly spread out in her stomach, mixed with the hatred in her heart.

"Grandma, this hairy tip is a tribute in the palace, where is this Aunt Wang, I don't know if grandma has ever thought about it?" Li Changqing reminded in a timely manner that she was not so kind, but she still wondered, how did a person like Wang Ruzhen stay in this mansion for so long?

I'm afraid that this old lady is like a mirror in her heart.

was reminded by Li Changqing, the old lady's old body seemed to be shaken, but she pretended to be casual and replied: "I don't know this way, it's better to ask her later." ”

"That's fine." Li Changqing saw that the old lady didn't want to mention it more, and said that after a while, I'm afraid that there are clues to follow, and now it is just to explore the tone, and now there must be something intriguing.

Unconsciously in his heart, he was about to leave the old lady's body, and suddenly remembered something, so he stopped, stared at Xia He for a while, and then said: "I see that only Fang Jue is following my father, and Steward Fang is also doing his best in the affairs of this house, but after all, this daily life is better than multiple girls." ”

"What do you mean by finding a girl to serve your father?"

Li Changqing's eyes flickered slightly, his clear eyes smiled, and said: "I think the girls around grandma are good, and they have followed grandma for many years, but they are all dignified and generous, calm and introverted." ”

As she spoke, her eyes shimmered, and when the old lady looked at her, she flashed her eyes towards Xia He.

Mrs. Li suddenly understood, but she also forgot that no matter how many aunts and sisters in the house had rooms, they couldn't compare to the people around her after all.

Besides, Wang Ruzhen had just been sent to Zhuangzi, and what was most lacking beside her son was a reasonable and knowledgeable woman, who couldn't help but turn around with Li Changqing's gaze, and saw Xia He's face like a peach blossom, and she was embarrassed.

I suddenly had an idea.
