Chapter 40 Audit

Qu Miaoling slowly walked to Wen's side, and she said in a cold voice: "Mother, you have taken it upon yourself to arrange my mother's dowry, have you considered your daughter's feelings!" ”

Qu Miaoling's words are beautiful.

"But Miao Ling, since I married into this Hou Mansion, I have been in charge of your mother's dowry, a few years ago when you grew up, I also went to ask you, you said that it was handed over to your mother to manage it all, why nowβ€”β€”"

"That's when I was stupid!"

Qu Miaoling said directly, not giving Wen's face at all.

I didn't expect Qu Miaoling to be so straightforward, and Wen's face froze.

She still thought in her heart that the more she looked at this Qu Miaoling Yue, the more she looked like she had changed her sex, and she didn't know how this Mrs. An trained her, so she let Qu Miaoling do everything against her.

Wen was annoyed.

"Mother, don't bully the young, if I can't figure out this account book, I will go to ask my aunt, and ...... when the time comes" Qu Miaoling said threateningly.

Wen was shocked in his heart, but his face was aggrieved, "Miao Ling, are you threatening me?" The mother's body is upright, and the shadow is naturally straight, you just have to check, and the mother will bear the mistake if it goes wrong. ”

"Well, the mother will wait for her daughter's good news, and after three days, the daughter will definitely check the account book and give her mother justice!"

Qu Miaoling left delicately, softly following behind her.

When he returned to Wanzhen Courtyard, he gently put the account book in the study, and then said, "Miss, is there something wrong with this account book?" ”

"This is natural, now Wen's mouth is hard, when I find out, I will see how she quibbles!"

"But Miss, is 3 days enough?" In the past, the young lady was not even able to look at the account books.

Gently worried, Qu Miaoling saw it in her eyes.

"Gently, believe me, I won't lose."

Nodding softly, "I believe in Miss." ”

And in He'an Garden, after Qu Miaoling's master and servant left, Wen sat down suddenly, and Tao Lei followed: "Madam, aren't you afraid that the eldest lady will really find out?" ”

Wen smiled incomprehensibly, "Can she find out?" I gave her half a month, and she didn't even want to find out, 3 days? Joke! ”

Born in a businessman, Wen's best thing is business, the more shops, the more she earns, and she can make the shops in the downtown area lose money, how can she Wen do it?

If she can really do this, I am afraid that the ancestors of the Wen family will crawl out of the grave and strangle her.

"Are you sure?"

Wen smiled again, "Taolei, you just wait!" ”

Although Wen's bamboo is in his chest, the worry on Taolei's face has not disappeared.

Recently, I fought with the eldest lady, and they were in chaos in He'an Park, and they never won.

If Qu Miaoling really finds out, even if the lady is Wu Dehou's wife and the prime minister's sister, it will be difficult to get rid of it.

Just when Tao Lei was worried, Qu Miaoling had already begun to act.

When Wu Dehou came back, he heard about the farce between the Wen family and Qu Miaoling, and his face darkened, but now he couldn't move either of these two women, so he could only persuade with good words.

That night, the family rarely sat in one place, thinking that Wu Dehou had an order to have a reunion dinner.

It's not a year's holidays, and I don't know which reunion dinner it is, despite muttering in my heart, Qu Miaoling and Wen's still appeared in the dining room.

Wu Dehou deliberately adjusted the atmosphere at the dinner table, but Wen and Qu Miaoling were tougher than the other, no matter what Wu Dehou said, the two of them just didn't say a word.

In the end, Wu Dehou was also angry, and he dropped his chopsticks.

"You guys are trying to me off one by one!"

Wen hurriedly said: "Master, what's wrong with you, but what's wrong?" Who is it? The concubine immediately taught her a lesson! ”

"Who else could it be!"

Wu Dehou glared at Wen.

Wen Rou looked at Wu Dehou aggrievedly, "Master, you are wrong to cut the concubine, it's not that the concubine wants to bet, it's really Miao Ling pressing step by step, and the concubine can't help it!" Wu Dehou looked at Qu Miaoling.

She smiled slightly, and said: "Father, you may not know that the Zhuangzi who was married by my mother is actually losing money every year, and those shops, without exception, are also losing money, do you know?" How much money do we have to put into those shops in our house a year? Did your mother tell you all this? ”

When Wu Dehou heard this, his eyes widened instantly.

"Master Hou, don't be angry first, you listen to the concubine, that's the case, the people in charge of those shops are all the county lord's people, and the concubine can't call them, so there is no way to replace them, and these are the dowries of the county lord, and the concubines don't dare to deal with them without permission, so they can only let themβ€”β€”"

Wen's words were tactful and sad, and he wiped his tears from time to time, without any grievances.

"Master Hou, the concubine is still thinking about selling those loss-making Zhuangzi shops these days, and she can also make up for the deficit of the Hou Mansion."

When Wu Dehou heard this, the money of the Hou Mansion was also lost, and his beard was about to rise, but soon he heard that he was going to sell those shops, and he slowly sat down again.

Wu Dehou turned his head and began to persuade Qu Miaoling, "Miaoling, your mother handled it right, why do you still have to do it against her?" ”

"Father, it's not what the greenhouse says at all, those account books are clearly fake, and those numbers are all made up!"

"Do you have proof?" Wu Dehou stiffened his face.

"Not for the time being, but if you give your daughter three days, your daughter will definitely be able to find out!"

"3 days? Miao Ling, you're not a child anymore, so many accounts, have you finished checking them? ”

"Father, I can, if you don't believe it, I can ask my aunt to vouch for it."

"Let Mrs. Ann vouch for you?" Wu Dehou began to stare again.

When Wen heard this, his heart was also uncomfortable.

This Qu Miaoling really listened to Mrs. An's pouting.

Moreover, she is so sure in front of the Hou Ye, doesn't she mean that she has filled her own pockets and embezzled the silver in the dowry?

Wen's face twitched.

Seeing that Qu Miaoling began to flip through the account books that night, Wen gritted his teeth and hurriedly asked Taolei to go to those shops and Zhuangzi to arrange, hide the harvest fruits and grains, as well as the things in the shops, and deliberately raise the marriage in the shops, and sure enough, no one went in to buy things at all.

Qu Miaoling spent a day checking the account book, there were too many old accounts, it was very complicated, Qu Miaoling's eyes hurt when he saw it, and he still found nothing.

Staying up until midnight, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was very distressed softly, so she persuaded Qu Miaoling to rest.

But Qu Miaoling said, "Let's go to those shops tomorrow." ”

Gently responded, quickly snatched the account book from the young lady's hand, and served her to rest.

Walking past one by one, Qu Miaoling's brows became tighter and tighter.

As soon as she came out of a silk village, Qu Miaoling walked out of the threshold, she suddenly turned her head to look inside, the shopkeeper looked at her respectfully, and smiled at her friendly.

Qu Miao turned her head suddenly, her face cold.

Then he walked forward.

"Miss, the shopkeeper just now was clearly fooling us." Softly indignant.

But even the gentleness can see that the shopkeeper's hidden evil intentions, how could Qu Miaoling not see it?

"Gentle, you go to a few people pretending to be merchants to order, remember, you have to order a large amount, and the same goes for the medicinal herb shop we went to just now."

"Miss, you'reβ€”"

"I have my own reasoning."

"But miss, we don't have that much cash in our hands!" Softly worried.

"You don't have to worry about this, let's go to Jingkanghou Mansion later, and my aunt will definitely be willing to lend it to me."

After finishing speaking, the two of them went straight to Jingkanghou's mansion.

Seeing the master and servant leaving, the man who had been following the two quickly dodged and hurried to the Wude Mansion.

Inside He'an Park.

Wen was talking to Qu Chensi, and when she saw someone coming, she asked Qu Chensi to go back to do her homework first, and she took the man to the study.

"Mrs. Hui, the eldest lady went to the silk village, the money village, the medicinal herb store and the two grocery stores today."

"Did they find anything?"

"Mrs. Hui, the slave saw that their faces were not very good-looking, they should not have found it, and then the slave went to the shop to ask the shopkeeper in person, and the shopkeeper also said that they sent the eldest lady away casually, and the eldest lady did not suspect that there was a problem with the account book."

"Really?" Wen smiled.

She knew her own means, and with Qu Miaoling's yellow-haired girl's deeds, she couldn't find out!

Wen smiled proudly, she waved the man away, and explained: "Continue to keep an eye on Qu Miaoling for me, and report it as soon as there is any movement."

"Yes."

The man was about to leave, but he hesitated for a while and turned around and said, "Madam, the eldest lady is heading towards the Jingkang Marquis Mansion, do you still want to follow?" ”

"Follow, why don't you follow, her every move must be watched clearly for me!"

"Yes!"

Looking at the back of the man leaving, Wen smiled slowly.

The red nails pinched the flower path, and some juice oozed out.

Qu Miaoling, go ahead, go to Mrs. An to get an idea, I'll wait to see your good show!

Here, Qu Miaoling and Mrs. An are formulating countermeasures against Wen's actions.

"Miao Ling, you really want to do this, if the Wen clan beheads himself, we will lose all our efforts!" Mrs. An looked at Qu Miaoling worriedly.

"Auntie, don't worry, Miao Ling knows in her heart, everything I do now is to paralyze the Wen family, and when she relaxes, thinking that I am going to fail, I will attack again and catch her off guard!"

Mrs. An still hesitated, but looking at Qu Miaoling's determined and insistent face, she agreed, isn't it just some silver, she has it, she is not afraid of Miaoling's defeat.

So Mrs. An waved her hand, and a thick stack of silver tickets went into Qu Miaoling's pocket.

"Thank you, aunt."

"Silly boy, say thank you to your aunt."

Qu Miaoling had lunch with Mrs. An, and then talked for a while with the brothers who came back in a hurry, and then returned to the Wude Mansion.

And at Min Jie's suggestion, Qu Miaoling decided to change her strategy, even if she let Hou Ye know that the Wen family raised the price to seek personal gain, it would at most make the Wen family suffer some reprimand, for the sake of the Wen family's many years, Wu Dehou would not move her at all, and now that the Wen family has Wen Hongzhi's big backer, Wu Dehou will not move the Wen family even more.

So, she called for softness temporarily.
