After a while, the inquiring person came back, and Qiu's mother waited for the eldest lady to wake up from a nap, and then went in to wait for the eldest lady to report the situation from her side.

"The old lady wants to see the shopkeepers of several jewelry shops outside today, and she also called Aunt Yun over. ”

Ji Ruhuan pursed the corners of her lips and responded, "Is there a jewelry shop?" ”

When Ji Ruhuan went to the room, a few shopkeepers hadn't come yet, but Aunt Yun had already come over and was talking to Mrs. Ji, who was sitting in the first place, looking a little tired.

Seeing Ji Ruhuan come in, Old Madam Ji showed a smile on her face, and beckoned to Ji Ruhuan, who bent down to give her salute, "Huan'er come and sit here." ”

Ji Ruhuan went over and sat down next to Mrs. Ji, and glanced at Aunt Yun sitting below, she was a lot thinner than before, it seems that the life of the ancestral hall is not easy, but it is a pity that she came out so early, it is really a good means.

Old Lady Ji took Ji Ruhuan's hand and asked, "Why did Huan'er come over so early today."

？”

Ji Ruhuan responded with a smile, "I heard that my grandmother has been a little tired for the affairs of the house these days, so Huan'er came over to see if there is anything Huan'er can help." ”

Old Mrs. Ji looked relieved and answered, "Huan'er has grown up, I know that I feel sorry for my grandmother, you are not young anymore, and it is time to learn to be a housekeeper, so stay and take a look later." ”

Ji Ruhuan responded with a smile, her eyes swept over Aunt Yun's side, but she was calm, and she didn't move, just sat there obediently.

As soon as I sat down at the door, the little guy came to report that the shopkeeper of the jewelry store had arrived.

Ji Ruhuan listened silently to a few shopkeepers reporting the accounts of the shop to the old lady for a year.

"Wait. ”

Ji Ruhuan's sudden interruption made Old Lady Ji frown slightly, and she scolded lightly, "Huan'er." ”

Aunt Yun on the side spoke out at the right time, and said with a smile, "Old lady, the eldest lady is so young, she must not be able to sit still when she listens to these cumbersome accounts, so let her go back first." ”

Ji Ruhuan glanced at Aunt Yun, who was smiling, and answered, "Grandmother, Huan'er heard that the shopkeeper said that she didn't understand something, so she interrupted and wanted to ask." ”

"Didn't grandmother say it, let Huan'er learn to be a housekeeper, and Huan'er interrupted loudly. Ji Ruhuan continued with a coquettish tone.

Mrs. Ji was very pleased to hear this, and said, "It's rare that you are so sensible, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask." ”

"Thank you Grandmother. ”

Ji Ruhuan thanked the old lady with an innocent smile, turned her head to look at the middle-aged shopkeeper, and asked, "Shopkeeper Yu, right?

The shopkeeper smiled kindly, and responded cautiously, "Exactly." ”

Ji Ruhuan's face changed in an instant, glared at the shopkeeper Yu angrily, and scolded, "Then why don't I receive new jewelry from you every month, you honestly confess, did you swallow it privately." ”

The shopkeeper was frightened and only broke out in a cold sweat, for fear that the eldest lady would rush up and beat people, so he only responded tremblingly, "The eldest lady is wronged, and the little one sends new jewelry to the house every month to the treasury grandmother, and it is clearly written in the account book, and she will never dare to swallow it privately." ”

Ji Ruhuan glanced at Aunt Yun, looked at Aunt Yun's slightly pale face, a sneer flashed at the corner of her mouth, turned her head to look at her grandmother, and said with a look of grievance, "Grandmother, the shopkeeper outside here sends new jewelry into the house every month, why doesn't Huan'er have it." ”

Old Mrs. Ji is old, she has been groggy when she listened to the shopkeeper's report before, and there are many female relatives in the house, so she doesn't feel that there is anything unreasonable when she hears it, but now that Ji Ruhuan is so troubled, her face has sunk.

At this time, after hearing Ji Ruhuan's question, he looked coldly at Aunt Yun on the side, "You are in good charge." ”

Aunt Yun didn't care about a few shopkeepers at this time, so she hurriedly knelt in front of Old Madam Ji, and explained loudly, "Old Madam, you are angry, the concubine knows her mistake, I have sent it to the eldest lady a few times before, and the eldest lady said that the style is not exquisite enough, so the concubine took it upon herself not to send it to the eldest lady." ”

Ji Ruhuan had already put away the anger on her face, and looked at Aunt Yun with a smile, Aunt Yun always felt a little flustered, and comforted herself, Ji Ruhuan was a fool who only made trouble.

I heard Ji Ruhuan speak, "The hairpin on Aunt Yun's head is chic, Shopkeeper Yu, is it from your store?"

Shopkeeper Yu secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead again, for fear of provoking this little evil star, and hurriedly opened his mouth to answer, "Exactly, it is the new style of last month." ”

Without waiting for Aunt Yun to speak, Ji Ruhuan opened her mouth and said again, "I went to Aunt Qing's side a few days ago, and the dress is really cold enough, and I also asked Aunt Qing if she came, why don't you wear a few decent pieces of jewelry, don't lose the people of the General's Mansion with such a look." ”

Old Lady Ji glared at Ji Ruhuan and scolded lightly, "Speak well." ”

Ji Ruhuan hurriedly laughed with her before she continued, "But Aunt Qing's few words made Huan'er a little ashamed, Aunt Qing said, although our general's mansion is a big business, it is not a businessman. ”

Old Lady Ji nodded with satisfaction and responded, "She's right. ”

Then his eyes looked at Aunt Yun again, and he said coldly, "You go back first." ”

Aunt Yun was a little reluctant to speak again, but she was forced back by the coldness in the old lady's eyes, obediently responded, and retreated.

Immediately, the old lady said to the shopkeepers standing below, "In the future, you don't have to send jewelry to the house every month, leave the account book, and you can go back first." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper dispersed, only Ji Ruhuan was left in the room, and the old lady Ji who was sitting in the first place looked at her carefully, and looked at her for a while before speaking, "I said why are you so well-behaved today, and your feelings are for Aunt Yun?"

Ji Ruhuan didn't deny it, pouted and responded, "She calculates me like this, why can't I target her, besides, I haven't learned what she does, this is all true, and I didn't wronged her." ”

Old Mrs. Ji sighed, and said in a serious voice, "Huan'er, she is your eldest brother's mother after all, your grandmother is old, and your father can't protect you for the rest of your life, even if you marry in the future, this mother's brother is also your dependence!"

Ji Ruhuan couldn't help but sneer in her heart, expecting them to be her dependent?

But grandmother didn't know the truth, and she couldn't tell her grandmother about the dirt behind them, so she had to answer, "I still have a second brother and a third brother, and this matter is not all for Huan'er's personal grudges, Huan'er really went to Aunt Qing's side a few days ago, if this family continues to be managed by Aunt Yun, our general's mansion should really become her private treasury." ”

Sure enough, when Ji Ruhuan said this, Mrs. Ji's eyes became a little colder, but she didn't say much to Ji Ruhuan, she only said, "I'm tired too, you go back first." ”

Ji Ruhuan responded, "Grandmother, you have to take care of your body, don't tire yourself, aren't there still Aunt Qing and Aunt Xue, they should also worry about family affairs." ”

Mrs. Ji didn't answer, she only held her head and waved her hand, Ji Ruhuan didn't say more, and turned around and left after giving a salute.

Although her grandmother did not express her position, Ji Ruhuan knew that her goal had almost been achieved, no matter what, it would definitely be impossible for this Aunt Yun to continue to be in charge of the family.

Sure enough, within a few days, Qiu's mother told her that Aunt Qing had begun to take over the housekeeping business.

Of course, Ji Ruhuan is happy to see it, no matter what this Aunt Qing is, she must be better than Aunt Yun in charge.

I didn't want her to hear the news in the afternoon, and the second brother who had never looked for her actually came over.

Of course, Ji Ruhuan couldn't treat his second brother like that "big brother", so he hurriedly asked people to beckon his second brother to go to the front hall first, and he quickly packed up.

Although he didn't have much intersection with the other two brothers in his previous life, let alone how much blood and family affection he had, in the end, they didn't care about their past suspicions, remembered their sister, and were calculated to die tragically because they saved her.

In this life, she must not let them be like in the previous life, and when she saw the second brother sitting in the main hall drinking tea, she felt even more inexplicably cordial.
