Joe's House.

Qiao Lixi lay on the bookcase weakly, on it was the account book that was sent today, Jin Baijin had already read it, and sent it to her to report here, waiting for the two to share dividends at the end of the month.

Always feel like something is wrong?

Qiao Yixi glanced up, and the top of Astragalus's head could be faintly seen under the open window.

When I got closer, Astragalus was really squatting under the window, whispering to the wolfberry.

"What's the fun thing, let's be happy."

"Miss, Miss!"

There was a sudden sound overhead, and Astragalus jumped in fright.

Goji also cowered and stood aside.

"Huh?" Qiao Lixi raised her eyebrows.

Astragalus's eyes rolled and rolled, "Miss Hui, my aunt and grandmother are back." ”

Jolene Zi?

"What is she doing when she comes back?"

"Miss Hui, the slave maid doesn't know, my aunt and grandmother came back crying early in the morning, and Mama Qiao and a few maids around her don't seem to be in good spirits. The slave and maid quietly went around the outside of the middle courtyard, but the old lady asked her to guard, and the slave and maid couldn't find out anything. ”

That's what makes her the most depressed.

Qiao Lixi rubbed her chin, and the sly gaze in her eyes passed, "Let's go, let's go to the middle courtyard." ”

With astragalus and wolfberry, Qiao Yixi and his party arrived in the middle courtyard in a mighty way, but they didn't expect the family in the fourth room to be there, Qiao Linzi was sitting next to Mrs. Qiao, silently wiping her tears, Mrs. Qiao's face was even more gloomy than a few days ago, and even had a hint of sinister.

Yo, this is hateful?

Qiao Yixi greeted Mrs. Qiao in a decent manner, and after greeting Qiao Siye and Xue Tao, she sat down next to Qiao Jinwen.

"Qiaoqiao, how can you give up my bad old woman here?"

Reluctant to be angry with her daughter, Mrs. Qiao's anger was directed at Qiao Yixi.

"My granddaughter heard that her aunt was coming, so she came to see it, and she also wanted to ask about her uncle, but did she have eyebrows?"

Everyone in the room immediately changed their faces, Qiao Yixi was satisfied, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more sincere.

"Qiao Qiao has a heart," Qiao Linzi's voice was still heavy nasal, and she wanted to cry for a long time, "Your uncle's side, I'm still trying to figure out a way, but it's ......"

"But what?" Qiao Lixi asked with concern.

Under the embroidered handkerchief, Qiao Linzi's eyes were tight.

Sure enough, it's a person who doesn't understand the world!

She said it so vaguely, if you know each other, you should stop here, she is good, and she has to be aggressive!

Qiao Lixi's eyes were too eager, so eager that Qiao Linzi couldn't refuse at all!

"Qiao Qiao," Qiao Siye said with a shelf, "I have my own measure with your grandmother about these things, and it's good that you care about your aunt, but you can't help with these things." ”

Qiao Yixi nodded, "Although I am a small person, if my aunt has anything, she can still talk to me, there will always be a way to do it." ”

Jolene nodded in a choked voice.

Seeing that Qiao Yixi had no intention of leaving, Old Madam Qiao had a cold face, but it was not easy to let her go.

"What does the government say?" Fourth Master Qiao continued the previous topic.

Qiao Linzi stiffened obviously, "The government went to check today, and there are no eyebrows." This year's year is unfavorable, just the beginning of the year has encountered a series of bad things, Rui Cheng's side, the government was going to close the case, the treasury suddenly happened to this thing, the government temporarily pressed Rui Cheng's matter, want to check whether the two things are connected. I'm here today to ask my mother and eldest brother to help me check and see if I can find something. ”

"You don't need to say it, I'll let people check it too," Qiao Siye said solemnly, "Don't think so much, concentrate on taking care of the two brothers at home, now they are your dependents, if there is no hope for Rui Cheng, the two brothers will have to stand up, and the Li family will rely on them in the future." ”

Jolene nodded in a sob.

"Your mother-in-law's side also has to be well served, there is such a big thing at home, she is the most hit, you use more snacks."

"Don't worry, mother, my daughter can save it."

After being dull for a while, Qiao Linzi had nothing more to say, and left with her mother-in-law and maid.

For the sake of Qiao Linzi's affairs, Fourth Master Qiao can be said to have taken great pains, spent a lot of money, and dispatched many people to investigate the fire in the Li family's treasury.

The fire came strangely, burned thoroughly, the Li family's inventory can be said to be all burned, which also made many medical centers that booked medicinal materials unable to get the goods as scheduled, the most troublesome thing is that there are many small merchants under the Li family, all of whom take the goods from the Li family, many of them have paid a deposit, and now the goods can't be taken out, not only can the business not be done, but also pay double the deposit.

Qiao Linzi was anxious, and the account room was settling the assets of the Li family, Mrs. Li was sick in bed, and Li Jue and Li Rui also returned home to help Qiao Linzi manage this mess. And Li Ruicheng, because of this fire, there is no final trial for the time being, but the Li family can no longer take out the extra silver, and his life in prison is very difficult.

On this day, after Qiao Siye came back from outside, he went straight to the middle courtyard, and I don't know what to say to Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao was furious and broke her favorite blue and white porcelain vase.

After a while, Mama Gong hurriedly left the house, but after half an hour, Qiao Linzi was brought back.

"Say, what the hell did you do?" As soon as Qiao Linzi entered the door, the tea cup in Mrs. Qiao's hand was thrown out, and it landed right at her feet, and the brown tea stains splashed on the corners of the white skirt, which was very obvious.

"Mother?" Jolene looked over suspiciously.

"Linzi, tell me the truth." Fourth Master Qiao spoke tiredly.

Qiao Linzi was silent, still making a final stubborn resistance.

Old Madam Qiao pointed at Qiao Linzi with hatred, "Do you know how many times you can make you die with what you do!" ”

"Mother, I, I'm just ......"

"It's because I'm too used to you, why are you so fearless, have you ever thought about what you will do if the people in the government find out?"

"Mother, I'm just looking for a way to live for myself!" Qiao Linzi said confidently, "Ruicheng's matter, we all know it in our hearts, I'm afraid that we won't be able to return to the sky, as soon as he leaves, I will take two children, orphans and widows, I ......"

"Bastard!" Old Madam Qiao was angry, "Orphans and widows? What about orphans and widows, you are Mrs. Li, the daughter of my Qiao family, and the rest of the Li family are enough for you to live for a long time, what do you have to worry about? ”

"Mother, I ......"

"Say, who is the man outside!" Knowing her daughter too well, Old Madam Qiao didn't have to guess to think of Qiao Linzi's purpose.

Qiao Linzi pretended to be dead and didn't speak.

Qiao Siye's eyebrows couldn't hide the tiredness, "Since I can find out, others can also find out, you'd better be honest, we think of a good countermeasure, and if someone else takes the lead, it's not as simple as dipping in the pig cage." ”

Qiao Linzi shuddered in fear.

"Or don't you say it?" Old Madam Qiao stomped the cane in her hand fiercely, eager to slap Qiao Linzi twice.

"It's Shiro, my original plan was to reconcile with Rui Cheng, but if I want to reconcile, I have to give a reason that the Li family can accept, and even if I and Rui Cheng reconcile and leave, Jue Ge'er and Rui Ge'er may not be able to go with me, so ......"

"So you designed to frame Li Ruicheng?" Fourth Master Qiao asked coldly.

As soon as the words came out, Qiao Linzi also had confidence, and continued in an angry tone: "I originally thought that Rui Cheng was gone, I was a widow, and I could remarry after a few years, but my mother-in-law's temperament, mother, eldest brother, you also know, plus the two brothers are so promising, I just remarry, and I can't take them away, since this is the case......"

"You burned down the treasury and ruined the Li family?"

At this time, Mrs. Qiao was not thinking of her daughter's distortion, but worried that if the tail of the matter was not cleaned up, her daughter would be found out.

"No, I have transferred all the things in the warehouse," Qiao Linzi said ruthlessly, "I have calculated all the silver that the Li family wants to compensate, except for the part of the compensation, there will be some left, I will leave it to my mother-in-law." ”

"Then, you will leave the Li family with your two sons?" Fourth Master Qiao looked at Qiao Linzi faintly.

Qiao Linzi is most afraid of this brother, Qiao Siye looks at it and doesn't care about it, but in terms of the ruthlessness of her thoughts, she is ashamed of herself.

"Childish!" Fourth Master Qiao said mockingly, "Li Ruicheng is dead, something happened to the Li family, and Old Madam Li is lying on the bed, you can leave the Li family?" Or did it mean that after a month or two, Mrs. Li died in the hospital bed? ”

Seeing that Qiao Linzi was silent, Qiao Siye knew that he was right.

Now, Old Madam Qiao and Fourth Master Qiao both knew Qiao Linzi's plans.

Because there is a man outside, if you want to leave Li Ruicheng, the most direct and trouble-free way is to get rid of him, so the fatal "fairy jump" was designed by Qiao Linzi and the man outside her.

Then, the Li family's medicinal materials were transferred and the treasury was burned, and the Li family had to pay a large amount of silver, and Mrs. Li's condition worsened, and it would not be long before she would die on the hospital bed, and Qiao Linzi could remarry with her two sons.

Although it was a little troublesome, Qiao Linzi's reputation was preserved, although the Li family was broken, but the medicinal materials in the warehouse were priceless, plus those business partners before the Li family, relying on this batch of inventory in the future, Qiao Linzi could make the first pot of gold, and he could buy and sell without capital.

This is Qiao Linzi's ultimate goal.

Although it is a little complicated, it can be linked one by one, playing the role of the sufferer, which is very sympathetic.

"Why didn't you talk to us before you did this?" Fourth Master Qiao said coldly, "Do you know, but if you make a mistake, what will you face?" ”

"No, Shiro and I have thought about it."

"After thinking about it, how do I know?" Fourth Master Qiao asked sarcastically.

Qiao Linzi was shocked in her heart, and her face still pretended to be innocent.

"The person who burned the treasury was found by me, do you think the government will not be able to find it?"

"Big brother, what should I do then?" Qiao Linzi was surprisingly calm.

That's her greatest strength.

When something goes wrong, instead of crying and fussing, worrying and being scared, it's better to think calmly about countermeasures.
