Chapter 851: Golden Jade Relationship (2)
On the second day after Baoyu got married, Li Kun personally went to Mrs. Wang to hand over the stewardship: if she didn't hand it over, how long could Mrs. Wang let her take care of it? Instead of being forced to hand over the stewardship at that time, it was better to know each other herself, take the initiative to hand it back, and still be decent. Hengzhi has made a lot of money in this period of time, and now the house is just an empty shelf, who wants to take it, he is not willing to take it again anyway.
Mrs. Wang took over the housekeeping and handed it over to Xia Jingui. Xia Jingui looked at Li Kun's calm expression, and she knew a little bit in her heart, that is, why Mrs. Wang was so eager to ask her to be a housekeeper, and she also knew the reason. But in order to gain a foothold in the mansion as soon as possible, she needs rights. But if she wants to take out her dowry to subsidize the mansion, she is absolutely unwilling - the Xia family's money cannot be subsidized to the wealthy mansion, because it is a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return.
Besides, that's the foundation for her and her son to live in the future. Anyway, what does it matter if Madame Wang wants only silver, whether it is her dowry or someone else's property? Whose silver is not silver?
Therefore, after Xia Jingui took over the affairs of the government for a while, he took the account book and went back to Mrs. Wang: "Madam, my daughter-in-law checked the account book of Yihong Courtyard and found some problems, but it was just ...... The daughter-in-law didn't dare to make her own decisions, so she came to ask her wife to show her. ”
Mrs. Wang was deeply surprised: "You are the housemother of Yihong Courtyard, what do you dare not call the shots?"
Xia Jingui said in a low voice: "It's about attacking them." ”
Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "Attacking them?
Xia Jingui turned the account book in Ying'er's hand and showed her page by page: "...... The daughter-in-law found that many things in Yihong Courtyard were gone, and the monthly silver, New Year's gold and silver that the second master had saved over the years were gone, and even the rose dew and wood dew given by the wife were not available today and tomorrow, and the daughter-in-law became suspicious, so she took stock of the past as well, and secretly visited for a long time, only to find that the big girls such as Raider, Musk Moon, Autumn Pattern, and Biyue often took the second master's things back to their own homes without authorization. ”
Mrs. Wang took Xia Jingui's hand, checking the missing things one by one, and the more she looked, the tighter the Buddha beads in her hand became, and finally she couldn't help but be angry: "These things that have no king's law are actually greedy for the master's things! He said to Xia Jingui again: "You have been married for a while. I heard that you were in charge of the house when you were a girl, and it stands to reason that you should have discovered this problem a long time ago, so why didn't you come to tell me?"
Xia Jingui was puzzled: "After all, the daughter-in-law has just arrived, and she doesn't dare to take more steps, even if she finds a problem, she thinks that unlike the Xia family's small family, Yihong Courtyard is in charge of the attack......"
Mrs. Wang interrupted Xia Jingui's words and said, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Xia Jingui said with a smile: "The second master is young and bloody, there are so many maids in the yard, the daughter-in-law doesn't dare to make a mistake, she always has to maintain it for a period of time, so that she can ask his wife for advice." Speaking of which, it's hard work. ”
Mrs. Wang sneered and said, "Where is her hard work? It's just that she is big-hearted and ambitious, thinking about shameless things." I'm really blind to the next thing, and I've lifted her up in vain. ”
Xia Jingui only didn't know: "Mrs. Mo didn't have some misunderstanding? Although they attacked people and they took some things privately, it's just that people like us, where do they care about such things? It's just that they hide it and don't report it, it's a bit hateful, punish them, just know the rules." In the end, they have also served the second master with all their hearts and souls for so many years, and they have worked hard without merit. ”
Mrs. Wang thought quietly for a while and said, "You avoid going back first, and I will try someone again." He also ordered someone to call Baoyu's grandmother, Mother Li, in.
After Li's mother came in, Mrs. Wang asked about the attack, and Li's mother complained, and at the end she said: "Madam, don't you know, the attacker hooked the second master before he entered the garden." ”
Mrs. Wang thundered: "What did you say? when? What did you do to attack people?"
Mother Li wept and said, "My wife, you have been deceived by that cunning little goblin." That attacker, about four or five years ago, when Grandma Xiaorong was still there, Grandma You invited the wife and grandmother in our house to come over to enjoy the flowers, and the second master who hooked the attacker broke his body at that time. At that time, the second master was only thirteen years old. ”
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth with hatred: a drop of essence and a drop of blood, no wonder Baoyu has been in poor health all these years, it turned out that she was harmed by that little goblin. She hated, "Who else in that courtyard besides attacking people?
Mother Li thought for a while and said, "By the time the old slave went out, Qiu Wen and Biyue were all broken. There are no musk moons and Qingwen in the big girl, but last year the old slave bumped into the home musk moon outside, and looking at her brows, her body was also broken. It's Qingwen who is good, although she is a little stingy, but she knows respect and refuses to come nonsense. I heard that she is now married in the countryside and has given birth to a pair of children, and her life is quite stable. ”
Mrs. Wang trembled angrily, gritted her teeth vigorously and said: "I know, it's hard for you to think about it, I have my own theory about this." He also called Yu Chu'er: "Go, take a first-class Feng'er and reward her with wine." ”
Yu Chu'er agreed and led Li's mother out.
Mrs. Wang viciously slammed the teacup in her hand, filled with anger. Xia Jingui walked out of the back room, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth: those who were kicked out were innocent, and those who stayed were dirty.
Xia Jingui stood quietly for a while, then stepped forward dignifiedly, rubbed Mrs. Wang's hand and said, "Mrs. hurt her hand carefully. That unconscionable slave failed your heart, and sent it away, so why bother hurting yourself for them? ”
Seeing Xia Jingui like this, Mrs. Wang calmed down a little and said, "Good boy, it's hard for you." If you hadn't had the heart to expose it, how could I have found out such things?" and said angrily: "Poor Baoyu, trapped in that jackal pen, forced by them all day long, I can't tell how uncomfortable it is." ”
Xia Jingui wanted to laugh in his heart: Baoyu is a big man, how can he be better than those girls like flowers and willows, right? Why did he fall into the jackal's trap? Besides, the cow doesn't eat water and presses his head, this kind of thing, if Baoyu doesn't mean that by himself, it is useless for those girls to force him, right?
Mrs. Wang said angrily: "Since I know about this matter, it will not be over." You go back first, serve Baoyu well, these days, don't let them touch Baoyu's body anymore, I still have some medicinal materials to replenish the body, you bring it back, and make up for Baoyu. ”
Xia Jingui curtsied and said calmly: "Daughter-in-law obeys the order, thank you for the reward." ”
Mrs. Wang nodded with satisfaction.
Xia Jingui sneered in his heart: "I don't know the ability to attack people for so long, you can do it as a wife, but now I have used a little means, so I act according to my command, hehe, people say that Mrs. is one of the pillars of Rongguo Mansion, in my opinion, I am afraid that it is just a vain, it seems that in another month, I will be able to firmly grasp the situation, hehe!"
