Shaking her head to dissipate the strange thoughts, Mama Li proposed: "Why don't I do some female work to sell, and I can also subsidize the family." Last time, you already disliked the lord about the eldest lady, and no matter how wronged you are this time, you must not go to him. ”

Mama Li still has a bit of a brain, and she knows that she can't go to Su Huanli now.

Su Li's eyes flashed slightly, and he said softly: "I take care of it, Mama doesn't need to worry." ”

"Hey! Rest a little longer, miss, and I'll go and prepare lunch at once. ”

Mama Li answered and went to the kitchen.

Su Li bent down, gently closed the "Dahan Tongzi" that Steward Li had brought back from Su Zipei's room, and walked towards the main courtyard with light steps.

"Master, the second lady asks to see you."

At the door of the study, Steward Li reported. Su Huanli put down the account and frowned slightly, "What is this girl doing, it hasn't been long since the injury healed." ”

"I should have come to say hello to the master." Steward Li said with a smile.

Su Huanli snorted coldly, "I can't see it, let her in." ”

Before, because of Zongzi's closeness to his second daughter, he had long since faded because of his wife. Without the help of the Zhu family behind him, the business of the silk village was simply difficult.

What's more, this morning, Mrs. also told her that Erya owned Jinyuan alone, and she actually went to the account room to make trouble, wanting 500 taels a month, which is more than Qing Haozi and Pei combined!

Zhu Yan didn't want to give it, Erya even made a big fuss in the account room, and finally let her take 300 taels, which is really unreasonable!

After a while, Su Li, who was dressed in a plain shirt and dress, slowly walked in from outside the door.

Perhaps because of his heart, when Su Huanli saw his second daughter this time, he no longer had a feeling of brightness, but a trace of disgust because of the latter's greed.

"My daughter asked her father to say goodbye, and the previous treatment of the injury really made my father break the bank." Su Li walked to the desk and saluted, and said apologetically.

Su Huanli was unmoved, his tone was cold and perfunctory, "There is still a little conscience, what are you doing here?" ”

Su Li seemed to be frightened by Su Huanli's tone, his face was slightly pale, and he took a few steps back and said, "My daughter just wants to explain the account room." ”

"Good, good!"

Su Huanli thought that Su Li wanted to quibble, and suddenly smiled angrily: "Your mother has already told me about this, what else do you have to say?" ”

"Did my mother already say it?!" Su Li was shocked, "Daddy, things are not what my mother said, three hundred taels is really too much, I only need thirty taels is enough." ”

"Huh?"

Su Huanli heard that something was wrong. If Su Li said that he didn't take 300 taels, he would definitely not believe it. But he clearly heard that although what his daughter said to him was all money, it didn't seem to be a topic at all.

Su Li lowered his head, tears fell down like pearls, and whispered intermittently: "Erya only needs thirty taels, which is enough." There is no need to increase the amount of money, Daddy is busy with business, and it must cost a lot, how can I be so wasteful. I only took thirty taels ......"

"You mean, your mother gave you extra money?"

Su Huanli was confused, and the more he listened, the more confused he became, and he couldn't help but ask.

Su Li seemed to be startled, and raised his head to reveal the face of pear blossoms with rain, like white flowers stained with dew in the morning.

Su Huanli's heartstrings touched, as long as he was a normal person, he would feel distressed when he saw this picture, not to mention that it was his daughter standing in front of him.

"It's... It was Steward Li who said it, I only let Mama Li take thirty taels, it was really my daughter's voluntary...... Daddy, don't blame your mother. Yes! No, it's ......"

Su Li seemed to have leaked his mouth, and he didn't know how to remedy it, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Steward Li stood at the door like a sculpture, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and at the same time he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This stupid girl, Zhu Yan doesn't treat her as a human being at all, but she is still trying to protect her mother in every way.

Although the method seemed to be self-defeating, it did not prevent him from feeling deep pity for Su Li in the slightest. is such a kind and simple girl, even if Qi Xianqing's old guy didn't tell him, he would protect her from being hurt.

"Okay, okay, my father knows about the bookkeeper. Don't cry, you see this is the cloud cake that Daddy bought from the county seat, take some back. ”

Su Huanli's face melted like ice and snow, and he became a kind father again.

Su Li was flattered and took the food box, and his black jewel-like eyes immediately smiled into a crescent moon, "Thank you, Dad!" Mama Li was already cooking lunch, and the husband said that thrift was a virtue, and the daughter would wait until the afternoon when she was hungry to eat. ”

"Hahahaha, good boy, go ahead."

Su Huanli laughed heartily, and after sending Su Li out of the door, his expression when he returned to the house was so gloomy that he could drip water, and asked in a low voice: "Butler, what's going on?!" ”

The old housekeeper said slowly: "Last night, the eldest lady went to the account room, first raised Erya's case money from two hundred taels to three hundred taels, and then took it all, saying that it was sent to Erya. It seems that the second lady only got thirty taels. ”

"What she said is all a lie, how can it be true!" Su Huanli was angry and angry, "Why didn't you tell me about such an important matter?" ”

The old housekeeper lowered his eyebrows, did not mention Su Huanli's stupid appearance of being deceived before, and said in a low voice: "The old man was about to say it, but the second miss came, and the second lady meant that the master should not blame the eldest lady." ”

"Not to blame?" Su Huanli slammed the desk, "This is my old Su family, not her Zhu Yan's bank!" Chamberlain...... Do you still have something to hide from me? ”

The old butler buried his head even lower, "The eldest lady didn't take much before, and ...... Even if the old man says it, the old man will only believe that it is the old man who swallows it alone. ”

Syllable!!

The white porcelain teacup shattered to the ground.

"How can this be true? Outrageous! Who is insatiable enough to slander Erya and lie all the time, has she ever had a husband like me in her eyes?! But there is still the Su family?! ”

Su Huanli's eyes were red, he was extremely angry, and he almost wanted to go crazy!

Sadly, this anger must not be sent to Zhu Yan, otherwise the silk business established by the Su family relying on the Zhu family will be ruined.

"Master, don't be angry, the body is the most important." Steward Li hurriedly persuaded on the side, "You still have Erya, how filial she is." ”

At the mention of Erya, Su Huanli was inexplicably comforted and calmed down.

Yes, there is a huge Su family, at least there is still a daughter who really cares about him.

Steward Li deliberately reminded that Su Huanli seemed to have found a spiritual home at this moment, his expression was full of vitality, and he carefully instructed: "

"That girl is too simple, if she goes out alone, she won't know if she will be sold. If I go out in the future, how can I rest assured that she will stay alone in the West Courtyard. Housekeeper, you arrange more henchmen to protect her. ”

"Okay sir, the big lady is over there......"

Halfway through Steward Li's words, Su Huanli's expression was slightly cold: "Staring at her, she must stop bullying Erya again." When she saves enough money, she will definitely find an excuse to go out again, and this time she must find out why! ”

Su Huanli only woke up at this time that it was not her second daughter who had been embarrassing her, but Zhu Yan, who was full of lies.

Before he drove Zhu Yan away, he felt guilty in his heart, and he had been thinking about how to make up for it, as soon as Zhu Yan said about the account room, she immediately believed it, damn slut!

Smack!

Su Huanli slapped himself twice, his eyes were gloomy, and the seeds of doubt took root in his heart.

——

"Oh, where are you going, Second Miss, I'm in a hurry to die." Mama Li stood at the door of Jinyuan with an anxious face, and immediately asked when she saw Su Li coming back.

Su Li shed a few tears, but his eyes were not red, but he smiled: "I just went outside for a walk, Nurse Mama I'm hungry, hurry up and eat." ”

Seeing that her expression was as usual, Mama Li breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, "The food is ready, hurry back to the room to eat." ”

Su Li smiled even brighter.

After lunch, Mama Li was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and the old housekeeper outside the kitchen suddenly walked in and asked, "Mama Li, can the second lady be in the courtyard?" ”

Seeing the old housekeeper, Mama Li was worried and lied: "Miss has already taken a nap, what is the matter with the housekeeper looking for Miss?"

Li Yin's ears moved slightly, and he clearly heard Su Li's shortness of breath in the room, and he was not sleeping. He squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Since Miss is taking a nap, the old slave will not bother, this is the compensation given by the master, and I also ask Mama Li to give it to her after the young lady wakes up." ”

Mama Li was slightly shocked when she heard this, and subconsciously turned into the thing in Li Yin's hand, and when she looked down, she was immediately shocked.

Silver, five hundred taels!

"Don't worry, I have explained it to the master today, and the master is angry with his wife. also let me take good care of the second lady in the future, five hundred taels was given by the master, you can accept it with confidence, grandma. ”

Li Yin explained softly, and Mama Li suddenly turned from surprise to joy, "Great! Now the second lady doesn't have to worry about being bullied. ”

Li Yin smiled slightly, and said in his heart that this Mama Li is also an out-and-out kind-hearted person, and she thinks about the second miss everywhere.

"Mama Li, I'm in the account room on weekdays, if the second lady encounters any trouble in the future, she must come and tell me." Li Yin explained: "This is also what the master explained. ”

"Definitely!" Mama Li was grateful, "Butler, you are such a good person!" ”

Li Yin was slightly stunned, and smiled bitterly in his heart, what kind of good person is he. Although he wanted to explain this time, it was thankless, and the relationship between him and the master's servant was close to husband and wife. It was the second lady who hit the right one, so that the old man was completely sober.

After the housekeeper left, Mama Li was very happy, and hurried to the study without washing the dishes, and said to Su Li, who was practicing calligraphy: "Miss, what a good thing!" ”

After Mama Li said that she had come clearly, Su Li stopped writing in her hand and sneered in her heart.

I can't see that Su Huanli, a mercenary old guy, still has such a soft side, so she is really embarrassed to do it.

On the surface, Su Li was pleasantly surprised: "Really? That's great! I'm still hesitant to go to my father. ”

Mama Li looked at it and smiled, speaking of which, the second miss is still a child. The various fears she had about the second miss before were really undeserved.
