Chapter 37: Suppression (2)

As soon as Aunt Du turned around, she saw Ning Ningqing, who was dressed in a golden veil, walking in, followed by Lan Ying.

Ningxia Qing ignored Aunt Du, but walked directly to Cao's side, and said warmly: "Mother, I personally cooked today and made some minced meat cakes." But I thought again, my mother has always had a disharmony in the spleen and stomach, and it may not be easy to digest, so I thought, make some appetizing and spleen-strengthening soup, I don't know if my mother thinks this is okay? ”

Cao Shi smiled and said, "You always think the most thoughtful. It's just that the kitchen is full of oil and smoke, you are a girl's house, it's okay to go less, be careful to tire yourself. ”

"I'm not tired of making food for you, no matter how much I make."

When Cao Shi heard this, he laughed even more.

Aunt Du listened to the conversation between the mother and daughter, and she couldn't interject at all, seeing that the mother and daughter didn't take themselves seriously at all, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, and asked, "Big girl, what did you mean by what you said just now?" ”

Ning Xia Qing turned her head and looked at her, but did not answer immediately.

For some reason, Aunt Du suddenly felt a wave of fear...... This is really strange, although as a concubine, I don't know how many heads I bowed in front of my eldest daughter, but I am twenty-three years old, and I am a married woman, why is I stared at by this teenage girl, so uncomfortable?

At this moment, Cuiyu suddenly came in from outside, Ningxia Qing took something from Cuiyu's hand, and then said with a smile: "Aunt Du, I know, you must have doubts about tailoring." In that case, let's talk about it today. ”

Ning Ningqing unfolded the account book in his hand in front of Aunt Du, and said with a smile: "The account book records all the materials that Aunt Du took from the shop in this district for half a year, and Aunt Du's seal is stamped under each account, please take a look at it yourself." ”

Aunt Du glanced at the account book a few times, she was illiterate, and she couldn't understand what was written on it at all, so she instantly turned her face to Cao's and said angrily: "Sister, big girl, this is ......"

Ning Xia Qing interrupted her: "Oh yes, I forgot that Aunt Du is illiterate, so let's read it to Aunt Du." ”

"On the tenth day of the first month, Du Liang, seven feet and eight inches of floating brocade."

"On the sixteenth day of the first month, Du Hongwen, three zhang whole soft smoke."

"On the nineteenth day of the first month, Du Yongxin, nine feet six inches of scattered flower brocade."

"On the third day of the second month, Du Wu's, three feet and three feet of ancient satin."

"On the sixth day of the second month, Du Yongfeng, ten zhang cicada wing yarn, three-foot flower brocade."

"February Twelve, Du ......"

Aunt Du hurriedly waved her hand to interrupt, extremely angry, pointed at Ning Xia Qing and said, "How can I ever take so many materials?" You're slandering! ”

Ningxia Qing sneered at each other: "Slander? Aunt Du, take a good look for yourself, under every step of the account, your seal is stamped! ”

After speaking, Ning Xia Qing threw the account book on Aunt Du, Aunt Du picked it up tremblingly, and looked at the account book, although she was illiterate, her seal was always recognized, and it was really full of her seal......

How could she have stamped so many seals......

Aunt Du was very helpless, stumbling, and couldn't even speak: "This ...... It's not what I took it...... It's my chapter, but it's ......."

She couldn't write, so Ning Yongda found someone to engrave a seal for her, and every time she went to the store to get something, she also stamped it instead of signing.

And every time the people of the Du family came to get the fabric, they would call her over and ask her to help stamp it as a matchmaker, so that they could take the material from the Ning family's shop again and again. And those people didn't let her guarantee in vain, and would give her a little benefit every time, so she made a lot of oil and water.

Later, after a long time, she was lazy, sometimes she didn't even know what the Du family had taken, as long as the Du family came to her to ask for her seal, she would give it directly, and when the seal came back, she also got her benefits. It's not that Ning Yongda hasn't said her, but as long as she cries with Ning Yongda for a few times, Ning Yongda can't do anything about her.

As the days went by, she didn't even know how many things the Du family had taken from the Ning family's shop, so when she saw the bill today, she was also taken aback...... Although it is impossible for Ningxia Qing to ask her to return it, but when she said this matter in person, Aunt Du's face was really a little unbearable.

Ning Ningqing's smile was meaningful: "Aunt Du, if the credit is not repaid in March, the guarantor will have to repay the creditor." And this is only the material that Aunt Du guarantees to go out, as for the material that Aunt Du herself cuts new clothes from time to time, I haven't counted it. Aunt Du wants to know, how many taels are added up inside and outside here? ”

Aunt Du's heart was weak for a while, but now was not the time to retreat, she plucked up her courage and said stiffly: "The eldest girl doesn't have to go over old accounts with me." The material on this ledger is known to the lord and is allowed. The eldest girl is talking about this here, is the Ning family not the master in charge now, but the big girl in charge? ”

"It is precisely because the Ning family is in charge of the family that the family law and store rules are not child's play. If the creditor does not repay the money in March, the guarantor will bear the debt, which is exactly the store rule set by my father. ”

Aunt Du's face turned white and she opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

"Aunt Du, I won't settle this account with you. The new clothes you have cut in the past six months alone are enough for your three years' worth of clothes. Yunjin is precious, you have always liked it, Tianxiang silk is expensive, and you are not stingy at all. ”

Speaking of this, Ning Ningqing's gaze suddenly swept over, and Aunt Du couldn't help but feel a beat in her heart. I only heard Ningxia Qingyou say: "You know, the old lady and the wife don't use such expensive materials to make clothes, and an aunt actually trespasses here." Aunt Du, in the same way, I will ask you in turn, is it not the old lady and the wife who are in charge of the Ning family's back house, but an aunt who is in charge of you? ”

Aunt Du's heart was chilled, like sitting on pins and needles, she had never met someone like Ning Ningqing, and she had already prepared the account book and waited to confront her, forcing her to be caught off guard and unable to deal with it at all!

Ning Xia Qing said unrelentingly: "Auntie, look at what your Du family has taken over the years." Although we are relatives, the Ning family is not a good person, no matter whether the Ning family is poor or rich, we can't let others take advantage of them endlessly! ”

Ning Ningqing's attitude was far tougher than Ning Yongda's, which provoked Aunt Du to have nothing to say for a while.

"You and I both know in our hearts that these accounts will definitely not be recovered. Since it is the aunt who is the guarantee, then it will be deducted from the aunt's monthly silver, and it will be regarded as repaying the debt. If my aunt's monthly silver this year is not enough, we will have next year, and next year will not be enough, and the year after tomorrow. In my opinion, my aunt really loves to help relatives, so my aunt shouldn't mind using her monthly silver to help the relatives of the Du family, right? ”

"Big girl, you ......" Aunt Du was so angry that her heart hurt, she supported her temples, turned her head to look at Cao, but was suddenly pulled up.

Ningxia Qing pulled Aunt Du and said with a smile: "Aunt Du, you are tired, I will send you back to rest." ”

"Sister, you can't watch the big girl bully me like this! Big girl, how can you do this? It's so unruly! ”

Ning Xia Qing didn't let go: "Those who don't have rules are people who don't understand the dignity of their concubines and eat inside and outside!" Aunt Du, don't worry, if your brother is really in trouble and has no food and clothing, since the Ning family will help the victims back then, they will definitely help your brother and prevent him from starving to death on the streets. ”

Aunt Du was pulled by Ningxia Qing, if she struggled with all her might, she might not be able to struggle, but Aunt Du didn't dare to resist excessively. I don't know why, today's Ningxia Qing is very abnormal, in front of Ningxia Qing, Aunt Du is always feeling weak for a while, there has never been such a thing before......

"Big girl, what do you look like like this...... Aunt Du could say these few weak words.

However, Ning Ningqing suddenly changed her words: "By the way, Aunt Du, you have had a lot of days after the miscarriage, haven't you moved?" ”

Aunt Du was stunned, but for some reason she suddenly talked about it, and replied in a daze: "The doctor said, I have to take good care of my body." I've been listening to the doctor, and no matter how bad the tonic is, I'll swallow it hard. ”

Ning Xia Qing sighed: "That's really hard Aunt Du." ”

When Aunt Du heard this, she couldn't help but reply: "It's not hard, it's not hard, I just want to pass on the lineage for the Ning family, and my heart for the Ning family can be learned from heaven and earth." ”

Ningxia Qing said: "Aunt Du, do you know, Zi'er has grown up, it's time to add a maid, and there will be a tooth woman coming to the door in a few days." When the tooth woman comes, I plan to let the old lady call the shots and bring another concubine room in. ”

Aunt Du was stunned: "What...... What the? ”

"I also feel sorry for Aunt Du, Aunt Du has raised her body for so long, and she hasn't gotten better, and she still hasn't gotten pregnant. I really can't bear it, so it's better to bring another room in and share the burden for Aunt Du. ”

"No...... No, I ......"

"Didn't Aunt Du say it, she can learn from the Ning family's heart. Carrying another concubine and spreading the branches and leaves for the Ning family, I think, Aunt Du should also be very happy, right? ”

Aunt Du was completely stunned at this time.

Since entering the Ning family, she has been the only aunt of the Ning family. Ning Yongda is an honest person, and she never thought of marrying another room or anything, because she has never had a sense of crisis, so she has become more and more self-conscious.

Unexpectedly, today, Ningxia Qing actually said such a thing as lifting another room!

Aunt Du opened her mouth, but she was stunned and speechless.

"Aunt Du, since you have entered the door of the Ning family, you are a member of the Ning family. Although my Ning family is not a big family, there are always some rules, at the very least, no one is allowed to eat inside and outside, thinking about how to damage the interests of the Ning family all day long. Ning Xia Qing smiled slightly: "Aunt Du, you should understand what I say." ”
