Chapter 140: Old Accounts and New Accounts
Shen Qiyuan didn't sit in Bibo Courtyard for long, and someone reported that Rong Zhi was coming, he glanced at Shen Anyan, and said in a deep voice: "I'll go and see, you rest early." ”
Hearing this, Shen Anyan nodded: "Uncle is going to be busy." ”
As soon as Shen Qiyuan left Bibo Courtyard with his front foot, Shen Anyan sent Qingling and used some silver to let the third-class maid in Shen Anni's courtyard take advantage of the cleaning time to return the letter to its original place.
Until the evening, there was no movement in the Flying Shrine.
Probably nothing was found.
Shen Anyan put down the account book in her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, these days she looked at the book and found a lot of confused accounts, which turned out to be all Gu housekeepers over the years, and it was not easy to fill them.
But if you keep letting it go, and it is difficult to guarantee that the Gu family will not do anything to pickle it with the relationship of these accounts, Shen Anyan really feels that she has picked up a hot potato, or the kind that is not easy to throw.
Qingling was summoned by Shen Anyan to investigate the matter of Shen Anni's letter, and the errand of serving dinner naturally fell on Hong Qian.
Although Hongqian is loyal, she is bold and not careful, and Shen Anyan is not at ease to let her know some things.
"Sister, are you having dinner in the house or what?" Recently, Shen Anyan ran to Hanqing Courtyard, and Hong Qian was a little unsure of her thoughts.
Shen Anyan glanced at the sky outside the window, and said indifferently: "It's not too early, just make do with something." ”
Although Shen Anyan himself said that he would make do with it, but these people are really waiting for them, and they still have a good appearance.
Even though Shen Anyan hid it tightly, there were more than one pair of eyes staring at her in the Shen Mansion, and the matter of her leaving the mansion was still known to the Gu family.
Gu's sharp eyes stared at the kneeling person below, and his voice was not loud or small: "Is this true?" The third girl really went to see the excitement of the Lin family? ”
The trees fell and scattered, and the fate of the Lin family was seen by many people, but it also sounded the alarm in their hearts, which is also the reason why most of the people who were friends with the Lin family did not appear, for fear of getting into trouble.
Who knows which emperor's next target will be after bringing down the Lin family?
Because of the relationship between the three children, the Gu family was somewhat taboo about the affairs of the Lin family, but they didn't expect Shen Anyan to dare to go to the scene to see it.
The movement of the person kneeling below nodding his head slowly slowed down in Gu's eyes, and after a long time, Gu took a deep breath and said, "No, you can't let the three girls mess around like this, otherwise the Shen family will have to fold in." ”
The Gu family didn't dare to think about the consequences of causing a lot of trouble to the Shen family.
She lowered her face and said to Feng Niang: "Clean up, let's go and say goodnight to the old lady." ”
When Gu arrived at Hanqing Courtyard, the old lady had just removed dinner, and looking at the two maids who came out with leftovers, she frowned obviously and stopped people: "How is the old lady's appetite today?" ”
What a clear-eyed person can see from these dinner plates, dishes and chopsticks, Gu Shi definitely disdains to ask, what she asked is the attitude of the old lady.
The sensible Feng Niang stepped forward and stuffed two ingots of silver, and the leading maid had an empty hand, weighed the weight, and was a little satisfied between her eyebrows, and then said vaguely: "The old lady is in a good mood today, and she has eaten half a bowl of rice." ”
Probably there was no bad news to disturb the old lady, Gu immediately sank his face and walked quickly into Hanqing Courtyard.
The old lady who received the report wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief unhurriedly, and she didn't rush to ask Gu Shi for his intention, but Gu Shi couldn't wait.
"Old lady, I heard that the third girl ran out again today?"
Hearing this, the old lady's eyelids picked slightly, and said casually: "What's the matter?" The three girls are older, and the burden on their shoulders is heavier than before, so it's good to go outside to take care of the shop, and those minions in the province bully the three girls by virtue of their age. ”
Gu shook his head again and again, and looked at the old lady with a shocked expression: "The old lady doesn't know that the third girl didn't go out for the shop today?" ”
What should come will always come, is this a door-to-door teacher to ask for sin?
The old lady didn't move her eyebrows and said, "Could it be that the third girl has other interests?" It's okay, the girl in the province has been sad about Yi'er's death. ”
Her appearance of not knowing anything made Gu Shi feel that she had hit the cotton with a fist, and she gritted her teeth without giving up: "Could it be that the old lady thinks that watching the excitement of the Lin family is also the fun that the three girls should have?" If this is known to the enemies who are hostile to the Shen family, they may be able to catch the Shen family's pigtails. ”
Shen Anyan rashly went to see that there was actually nothing, after all, most people had a certain curiosity about the fate of the Lin family.
It's just that the Shen family took the lead in impeaching the Lin family, this is different, in the eyes of people with hearts, Shen Anyan seems to be dissatisfied, and he has to see the Lin family with his own eyes before it is finished.
Originally, because Shen Qiyuan lost his official position, the Gu family was somewhat stable, and she always felt that one day the power of the Shen family would return to her hands, and the title would be extended to Shen Fangrui.
But when Shen Anyan happened like this, the Gu family began to suspect that the Shen family would be defeated by Shen Anyan sooner or later.
She can't let Shen Anyan have this kind of opportunity, after all, the relationship between family background and marriage is very big, and what happens to the Shen family will directly affect the future of her three children.
How could the old lady not know that the Gu family wanted to take the opportunity to pull Shen Anyan's hind legs, her eyes sank, and her eyes directly lost their temperature when she looked at the Gu family: "The third girl is now the head of the Shen family, she naturally has her reasons for what she does, Aunt Gu still don't hinder the third girl from doing things well, otherwise in the end, she will have to blame the third girl for not doing anything good." ”
In the end, the Gu family is just an aunt, in the eyes of the old lady who attaches importance to the family's background, Shen Anyan is naturally more suitable than the Gu family, if it weren't for Shen Anyan's too young age, the power of the housekeeper would not have had a chance to fall into the hands of the Gu family no matter what.
Now that Shen Anyan is older, when he is about to leave the pavilion, it is a matter of course to take the Shen family to practice his hands, otherwise there will be people who will say that the Shen family's sister-in-law doesn't understand anything.
Gu Shi looked at the old lady's eyes, and finally panicked, did the old lady really want Shen Anyan, the yellow-haired girl who didn't have any hair, to be in charge of the Shen family's backyard all the time? Are you kidding?
"Old lady, you can't favor one over the other, the second girl was just abrupt and the third girl was punished at once, these three girls are doing such a ridiculous thing now, how can you turn a blind eye?"
Gu Shi shouted grievances at the old lady dissatisfied, and her handkerchief was tightly pinched in her hand.
