Chapter XVIII Embezzlement of Dowry 1

Walking slowly into the room, Shen Qingwan slowly sat down at the desk, her fingers lightly clasped the table, sorting out her thoughts.

Mu Tao walked in lightly, put down the freshly brewed tea, made a cup, and set the pastries again, just about to leave Shen Qingwan called her, "Mu Tao, you let people go down and stare at the Bamboo Pavilion and the Lotus Pavilion, I always feel that there will be some movement recently... By the way, is there any news coming from there? ”

"Miss Yu, I said over there, the second girl has been out of the house frequently recently, and our people have secretly followed, and found that the second girl and Lord Qin have met in private for a few years, and what exactly they talked about, our people dare not get too close, so it is not clear. But the slave really didn't expect that the second girl, who looked dusty, would always do these unsightly things behind her back! There is also the fact that the third girl is preparing for her own ceremony these days, and Aunt Liu wants to invite Mrs. Li Shangshu, who is the guest of honor for the second girl, to do the same, but Mrs. Li refused, and I heard that the refusal was not very good, which provoked Aunt Liu and the three girls to have a big fire and smashed a lot of objects. What's more, Aunt Liu moved the dowry left by the lady for the sake of the second young master's career and the third girl's courtesy... Miss, the slave really never expected that she would dare to embezzle Madame's things without authorization! It's really shameless. The more Mu Tao spoke, the more angry she became, and in the end, her whole little face turned red with anger.

Shen Qingwan smiled, "I know, Xiao Mutao, don't be angry, does your young lady seem to be someone who lets others take advantage of you in vain?" How many of your young ladies have been moved by the four of you in the past two years, how can you let her spit it out without a bad point, isn't this about the middle of the year, at this time of year with the wax moon, we have to make a count up and down the house, where the silver is spent, and the people of the various shops and Zhuangzi come to report the harvest, she Liu moved a lot of silver at once, such a big hole is not easy to make up, either she will go to her mother's house to borrow silver, or press it first, but how can my third sister agree to make her and the ceremony bad, Liu's this time, it has to be planted. ”

According to her rough statistics, in the past two years, because of the Liu family, the dowry of the mother was given to her earlier in addition to the others, and the others were in the public account of the house, but this Liu family was really not smart enough, thinking that after subsidizing her son and daughter, no one would know about the account, but she didn't know that her mother had guarded against her back then, and deliberately let people register all the dowries, one in her own hands, and the other was left in the general's mansion in the hands of her own second aunt, and her mother had always been close to the two uncles and mothers before she got married. But the eldest uncle has been fighting abroad all the year round, and even with the eldest aunt and mother, he is often not in the capital with the army, and the second uncle is indeed an official in the capital, and the second uncle is better with his mother, and the mother was afraid that the Liu family would be greedy and afraid that he would be young, so he copied a copy of the dowry list of the year and let the second uncle and mother take it back to the general's mansion to ensure the needs of the future.

But this Liu family didn't know such a thing, thinking that no one would know it when it came to the public account, how could she know that she had counted every sum of money and every thing she had taken in the past two years, and was waiting to settle the account with her? Liu's family is even cheaper than her mother's family, from the bridal shop brought by her mother to take the fabric and clothing jewelry has always been just a name to keep an account, the shopkeeper is embarrassed to come to the door for various reasons, but also makes them feel that the more they take advantage of the better, just in the past two years, the Liu family from a little-known small family to today's Shilang Mansion, just the paving silver is not less spent, not to mention the silver money for gifts during the New Year's holidays.

Shen Qingwan gently flipped the small book in his hand and pursed his lips, today is already June 14, and it is the day to say hello to her grandmother tomorrow, and tomorrow is also the day of the mid-year summary, I don't know if the Liu family is ready? But that's not something she should worry about, she, as long as she mentions it at the right time tomorrow, with her grandmother's temperament, will definitely investigate it thoroughly.

Although the old lady is Liu's distant aunt, the old lady has always valued the interests of the Xiangfu the most, and the most hateful thing is to eat inside and outside and take the money of the Xiangfu to fund the people of her mother's family, and the Liu family is guilty of the old lady's taboo, this matter, if it breaks out and let everyone know about other high-ranking families, it will definitely affect the future of Liu's three children, for these, Liu can only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and do everything to pay off the money she embezzled, otherwise it will be a trivial matter to make trouble with the government, Ruining the future of Shen Yijia and the three is a big deal, there is a stealing mother, and it is really not good to hear it when it is spread out.

Shen Qingwan thought about it for a while, and whispered to Mu Tao, "Ming'er, we may have to fight a tough battle, you wait for someone to go out of the house, and inform the shopkeepers of the shop who came to the house with their mother's relatives, and tomorrow they will come to the house with the 'credit' list of the Liu family, and the food and clothing they have taken in the past two years, Ming'er is the time to settle the account, tell the shopkeeper, don't be taboo anything else, if you can't pay it off, let them go directly to the government to sue the Liu family and the Liu family, no matter how bad it is, there will be a young lady I am." ”

"Yes." Mu Tao smiled, she knew that her young lady was not the kind of person who took her own things to make others comfortable.

"Alright, let's go, it's not good when it's late." Shen Qingwan said with a smile, and took a sip of tea, Aunt Liu, in the past two years, your family has eaten me like a parasite and used mine, it should be the end, don't blame me, after all, in the previous life, good people did a lot, and they didn't get any good ends, in this life, she doesn't do that kind of stupid thing, it's hers, whoever touches and takes her will definitely make people vomit it out, and it will never be tolerated anymore.

Shen Qingwan stood up, walked to the window and looked at the flowers in the yard, and thought silently in her heart, "Mother, in this life, my daughter must find out the real culprit who killed you, and these stumbling blocks for you to make means want to step on you to climb up, and my daughter will not let any of them go." At the beginning of her rebirth, she also thought about it, after all, those people made mistakes have nothing to do with their lives, except for those who have done wrong things, and those who have not done bad things in this life, she can't just generalize, but who knows these people, they don't know how to converge at all, she gave Shen Yijia a chance, but she didn't cherish it herself, then... No wonder myself.

She still remembered the sachet sent by Shen Yijia a few days ago, and she didn't think much about it at first, until Xunhan reminded her, take a closer look, the things contained in it are rare, a kind of flower unique to southern Xinjiang, the flowers are very gorgeous, lovely, but no one knows that what is hidden behind this appearance is actually such a face, long-term wear can cause women to be infertile, at that moment she clearly knew that some people even if she wanted to let go, she would come to die, although she didn't think about using it at the beginning, But this poisonous plan is indeed real. However, she was quite curious, where did Shen Yijia get this kind of flower that is a specialty of southern Xinjiang, it smelled tasteless, and after drying the flowers, it was no different from ordinary flowers, and even she was almost shaken.

Shen Yijia, Shen Yijia, what is the secret behind you, she is really looking forward to it more and more.
