Mother Liu brought chairs to Nan Shiyu and Cai Chunhua, and the mother and daughter sat in front of the warehouse door and examined the housekeeper. The housekeeper was trembling for a while when the two of them saw it, his face turned pale, and he looked at Nan Shiyu in a daze.

There is a rule in the South Mansion, since the housekeeper has entered the house, unless he is beaten out for a crime, everything in the housekeeper will belong to the master, even if he marries a wife and a concubine, he must be agreed by the master. married a wife privately, and ended up with those maids and maids who committed crimes in Nanfu.

Nan Shiyu folded her hands on her lap, and saw that the housekeeper seemed to want to refute her, so she stretched out her hand and hit the housekeeper, and said casually: "Eh, don't be in a hurry to deny this matter first, the housekeeper has ordered someone to arrest the woman, if there is any grievance, you two will tell me in front of you." Let's see if Miss Ben has wronged you. ”

The butler seemed to have a knot in his tongue, and his speech was intermittent: "This....... This, Second Miss, you really ......" After saying that, he turned his head and kept glancing at Cai Chunhua.

Cai Chunhua didn't pay attention to him, and only asked someone to bring the woman up with Liu's mother.

Sure enough, after a while, Mother Liu and Mother Zhao put up a woman with messy hair, and it seemed that she hadn't been cleaned yet.

As soon as the woman came up, she ignored the two masters in front of her, and tried to break free of Mother Liu and Mother Zhao and pounced on the housekeeper: "Housekeeper...... Help me! You brought me in from outside, and I don't know anything! ”

Cai Chunhua frowned: "Bring it in?" I don't even know who brought them into Nanfu. ”

The housekeeper's face was ugly, and he directly pushed the woman who threw herself aside, and Zi'er hurriedly climbed forward and said, "Madame, atonement for your sins!" The old slave had never seen this woman, and he didn't know who she was! ”

After hearing this, the woman had tears in her eyes, grabbed the sand from the ground and threw it at the butler: "How can you deny me! Then what is our pre-marriage vows! You don't recognize me...... Yes, well, but I already have your child in my womb, how can you deny your child! ”

The housekeeper had a gloomy face, pushed the woman even wider, and couldn't wait to throw the person out of the courtyard of the warehouse, so he hurriedly kowtowed to Cai Chunhua and said, "This, this, this...... Madame's mercy! The old slave really has never seen this woman, the old slave dares to swear! ”

Nan Shiyu glanced at Liu's mother, and Liu's mother took the thin whip she carried with her, which was originally used for Nan Shiyu to beat fruit, but she didn't expect it to be used to smoke people now.

Mother Liu raised her hand and there was a whip, the whip was extremely thin, although this whip would not open the skin and flesh, but it was also bruised and swollen. The housekeeper knelt on the ground and wailed, not daring to move, allowing Mother Liu to whip him.

Cai Chunhua was frowning all the time, looking at the scene in front of him, Nan Shiyu seemed to be prepared, otherwise he wouldn't dare to let Liu's mother do it easily. In the past, Cai Chunhua may still protect the housekeeper, but today Cai Chunhua has to think, if this saves the housekeeper in case she is affected, it will be more than worth the loss.

After thinking for a while, Cai Chunhua directly threw up his sleeves and stood up, accusing: "Did you embezzle your sister's dowry?" It's really a bold minion, if I don't settle these things on weekdays, you dare to do it privately! Otherwise, how dare you take a wife behind my back! ”

Seeing this, Mother Zhao understood what Cai Chunhua meant, and immediately helped: "I heard that the housekeeper is still blocking the second miss from letting the second miss go in today, but our wife didn't let you stop it, it can be seen that you have a ghost in your heart to stop it!" ”

Cai Chunhua slowly walked in front of the housekeeper, pointed at him and said, "You are so bold, you dare to embezzle my sister's dowry without me!" You married a wife regardless of the safety of your family, and when the lord found out, he sent you out of the house directly. ”

The housekeeper was stunned by Cai Chunhua's scolding, and his mother, who had always protected him, actually changed her normal behavior today and scolded him in front of Nan Shiyu, so that he was not surprised.

While the three of them were in a stalemate with each other, Jin Zhi walked into the courtyard of the storehouse from outside with a group of maids, each of whom held various exquisite utensils in their hands, and the butler's face suddenly turned pale and bloodless.

Jin Zhi stepped forward and saluted Nan Shiyu: "Miss, this is a tool that the slave maid took someone to search out of the housekeeper's house, take a closer look." The gorgeously patterned mandarin duck vase, the slave maid remembered that it was one of the lady's dowries. ”

The housekeeper couldn't argue: "This and this, this and this ......"

The woman jumped up in a hurry when she saw it, and she didn't know who gave her the courage to point at the golden branch and scold: "You cheap, these are the rewards of the lady!" How dare you...... Yes! ”

Before she finished speaking, the woman felt a hot pain on the left side of her face, and she stared at the housekeeper with big black eyes: "Am I not right?" ”

The butler yelled, "Shut up! I bought these things from outside, what are you messing around! ”

Cai Chunhua's face was gloomy and his eyes were cold: "Oh? You mean, that mandarin duck bottle was given to you by me? Bold minion, that is my sister's dowry, how can I give you my sister's dowry! Cai Chunhua glanced at the housekeeper, "Or are you living enough?" You'll live enough for yourself, but your father and brother should be ......."

The housekeeper was sweating profusely, and was busy kowtowing to Cai Chunhua, and after kowtowing, he raised his hand and gave Zi'er a big slap: "Madame, spare your life!" This...... This is all what the woman wanted, and the slave was dizzy and moved the dowry of the eldest lady! With that, he threw himself at the woman on the side, and the two of them beat each other.

Zhao's mother hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the two apart and asked Cai Chunhua what he meant.

Mother Liu saw Mother Zhao's eyes, and stepped forward in front of the housekeeper: "Housekeeper, you have to recognize clearly, this is the eldest lady's dowry, and the eldest lady's daughter-in-law is here today." If you have any grievances, do you have any instigation to misappropriate the dowry? ”

The butler stammered, "No, not ever!" ”

Zhao's mother hurriedly replied: "Hmph, who can instigate him?" It's clear that this guy thinks that his days in Nanfu have been long, relying on the old and selling the old, and he actually dares to embezzle the dowry of the eldest lady, is this Ming'er going to do it against the master? ”

Nan Shiyu's index finger tapped lightly on her leg, Liu's mother undoubtedly wanted the housekeeper to say that it was Cai Chunhua's instructions, but Zhao's mother helped to convict her in the back, and all the things were pushed on the housekeeper one by one, all of which was expected for Nan Shiyu.

Mother Zhao continued: "If the housekeeper has lived enough, he can be dragged out and killed with a cane today." But if you die, what will happen to your father and brother? Your class is unkind, unrighteous and unfilial, but in fact, it is a lot of harm! ”

The housekeeper climbed in front of Nan Shiyu and kowtowed vigorously: "It's the old slave's fault!" The old slave confessed his sins, and begged the second lady to spare her life! There is a septuagenarian father above the minion, what can I do if I don't have a minion......"

Nan Shiyu didn't look at the housekeeper, "Since that's the case, then forget it." The housekeeper was smiling, and his eyes could overflow, so Nan Shiyu poured a basin of cold water again, "Since the housekeeper is from the second lady's side, then leave it to the second lady, right?" ”

Cai Chunhua said: "How can this be done, this bold slave embezzled his sister's dowry, and Yu'er is my sister's daughter-in-law, so it should be disposed of by Yu'er." ”

Nan Shiyu shook her head, took out a bunch of keys and account books from her cuffs, and handed them to Cai Chunhua's hand: "Not only that, but these rains are also handed over to the second lady." ”

Cai Chunhua was surprised for a while: "Yu'er, this is ......"

Nan Shiyu smiled: "Yu'er believes in the second lady, and these things will be kept by the second lady first." When the sun rises and gets married, you can check it with your father. ”

Cai Chunhua pinched the string of keys in his hand that were still shining with golden light, glanced at Nan Shiyu deeply, and laughed dryly: "Haha, don't worry, Yu'er, I will definitely recover all the lost dowries for you." ”

Nan Shiyu got up and saluted and smiled: "Then there is Second Mrs. Lao, speaking ......"

Cai Chunhua suddenly became nervous, staring at Nan Shiyu tightly, clasping his hands together, and still looking light and breezy on the surface.

Nan Shiyu said: "Speaking of which, Yu'er still has the original book of accounts in her hand, which records all the dowries of her mother, and will be checked one by one when the second lady recovers all the dowries." ”

Cai Chunhua was nervous, and the smile on his face became a little reluctant. Nan Shiyu had already seen through her, and left with Liu's mother and Jin Zhi first, Cai Chunhua stared at Nan Shiyu's back closely behind, and pondered.

Nan Zixin and Nan Meng'er watched from the corner of the warehouse, everything was seen by them, the two sisters looked at each other, Nan Meng'er shook her head and said softly: "It seems that the second sister is not as easy to bully as before." ”

Nan Zixin agreed: "Since the second sister returned to Beijing, I feel that she is very strange, and there is always an indescribable feeling surrounding her, but I can't tell what is wrong." ”

Nan Meng'er grabbed Nan Zixin's hand: "Don't talk about this, it's time for us to go out and report to our mother." ”

After Nan Shiyu left, Cai Chunhua couldn't hold it back, and Zhao's mother stepped forward and kicked the housekeeper to give Cai Chunhua her anger when she saw this. Cai Chunhua frowned, bit his red lip, and slammed his seat angrily: "I'm really angry!" This stinky girl is really impressive, and now it's so difficult to deal with......"

Nan Meng'er and Nan Zixin hurriedly ran forward to see Cai Chunhua, Nan Meng'er's eyes were worried: "Mother, why are you doing this, isn't this hurting yourself to fulfill the second sister's wishes?" ”

Cai Chunhua looked at the two daughters, relieved his breath a little, calmed himself down for a while, and was helped by Nan Meng'er to sit down: "Why are you here?" Don't meddle in these matters. ”

Nan Zixin said: "Mother, what are these words, we are mother and daughter, mother and daughter are bent on finding a way, and they will definitely be able to bring down the second sister." ”

Nan Meng'er squatted beside Cai Chunhua and gently beat Cai Chunhua's thigh: "Mother, you don't have to be so angry. I discussed it with my sister just now, but we have a plan to try, if it works...... I don't have to worry about not being able to bring down the second sister. ”

Cai Chunhua said curiously: "You two little ghosts, you have a lot of ideas." I'll hear it. ”

Nan Zixin said: "Mother, won't there be a banquet in a few days?" My daughter has inquired, and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince will go. After saying that, Nan Zixin whispered a few words in Cai Chunhua's ear, Cai Chunhua smiled, and his face looked a lot better.

The two sisters looked at each other, and gradually laughed uncontrollably: "Mother, if the second sister is humiliated by His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, I'm afraid ...... can't marry His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and the royal family won't want such a woman who has lost her innocence. ”

Cai Chunhua smiled a little proudly, gently hugged the two daughters and knocked them on the head dotingly.

In Nan Shiyu's courtyard, not long after the master and servant were put back, only Liu Ma and Nan Shiyu occasionally spoke a few words along the way, and Jin Zhi did not say a word.

Now that I'm back in the house, there are only Nan Shiyu and Jin Zhi. Jin Zhi came to Nan Shiyu with tea, and Nan Shiyu looked at her a little strangely: "What's wrong?" Why don't you speak? ”

Who knew that Jin Zhi actually put down the teacup heavily, walked to Nan Shiyu's side with a pouted mouth and said, "Miss, you can't just let go of the housekeeper!" ”

Nan Shiyu took a sip of tea and put the teacup aside, and the fragrance of tea was thrown on the tip of her tongue to taste, "Who told you that I would let him go?" It just so happens that there is something you need to do right now. ”

Jin Zhi said with novelty: "What's the matter?" ”

Nan Shiyu said: "You go and spread the unclear matter between the housekeeper and the second lady, and let Lan Mei know." ”
