Ninghou Mansion, Xiangxi Courtyard.

It was dark at night, but the lights in the room were still bright.

Chu Yueyun brought her mother a bowl of ginseng soup and said, "My mother's body has just improved, I should take a good rest, and I will look at these account books tomorrow." Drink a bowl of grits soup and sleep better at night, with the medicine prescribed by the second sister to sleep peacefully, you will definitely be able to have a good dream. ”

"Good boys, you're all good boys." Aunt Xiang turned out to be a ginseng soup and sighed leisurely.

"Why is my mother sighing so much?" Chu Yueyun asked.

"I checked the accounts just now and found that the deficit on this account is tens of thousands of taels."

Hearing this, Chu Yueyun sneered: "The Zhao family picked and searched for other people, but their mother and daughter lived in luxury, plus what she moved to Zhao Mansion over the years and sent to Yuwang Mansion, it is not surprising that she has lost money." This is still a matter on the books, there are still many things that have not been recorded, and I don't know how many have been moved away by her! Grandmother's good calculation, let my mother temporarily manage the affairs of the back house, and go around in such a circle, which is nothing more than to let us close the deficit in this account. ”

Aunt Xiang pressed her temples: "This is really a hot potato." ”

"Uncle can still take out these ten thousand taels of silver, but we can't be such a wronged boss in vain, and my uncle's hard-earned money can't be used by the Zhao family to supplement his mother's family!" Chu Yueyun snorted, "There are two things to do now, since there is a deficit in this account, we can't fill it in silently, we have to check, every account must be checked clearly, see what face she Zhao Qianru has in the future, and then make up for her mother's family on the account, and after the account is checked, we will invite all the people of the Zhao family to come over, let's confront the three parties, clear it with one stroke, and see that they can't panic." ”

After a pause, Chu Yueyun continued: "Uncle's money is not blown by the wind, it is impossible to continue to be so extravagant and wasteful, the second thing we have to do is to reduce the consumption, of course, other people are within the rules, only the Zhao mother and daughter are extravagant, since they don't have that strength, don't live that kind of life, they should also see the reality clearly." ”

Speaking of this, she was angry in her heart: "Mother, do you say that the Zhao family is sick, and actually drugged you?" She can live such a life now because mother, you are your uncle's only sister, so you will move the silver to the Hou Mansion, if something happens to you, can your uncle still be the same as before? Will she still be able to live her former life? She has always been proud that Concubine Yu has been the side concubine of desire, but over the years, has Concubine Jade taken care of the Hou Mansion and given the Hou Mansion any substantial help? A bunch of idiots! ”

"Alright, stop complaining." Aunt Xiang smiled and pinched Chu Yueyun's face gently, "The two points you just said, will it force the Zhao family too quickly?" ”

"Mother, since we want to take revenge, it is not okay to be afraid of wolves and tigers, you look at the second sister, alone, didn't you force the Zhao family to the current situation? Can't we have some means? ”

Aunt Xiang held Chu Yueyun's hand: "Okay, my mother will listen to you." Ming'er, if you want to go to the White Horse Temple to worship the Buddha, you have to stay overnight, and everything is ready? ”

"It's been ready for a long time." Chu Yueyun said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's not too early, let's rest quickly." ”

The next day, it was a cloudy day, and there was a faint sign of rain, but I had already told the host of the White Horse Temple that I was going to incense today, and it was not good to make an appointment, so I had to set off.

The four ladies of Ninghou Mansion sat in two carriages, and Chu Yueyun complained after getting on the car: "Let's go to Shangxiang, the third sister is wearing a gorgeous costume, and I don't know who to show it!" ”

"Anyway, it's not for you, why are you in a hurry?" Chu Yue'an took a copy of the Nine Kingdoms and read it.

Chu Yueyun tilted her head and said with a smile: "Chu Yuezi's daily food, clothing, food, housing and transportation are all higher than ours, but she may not have this opportunity in the future." I discussed with my mother yesterday that I would cut back on their expenses in the future, and it was their mother's and daughter's expenses that I would cut. ”

"Yes." Chu Yuean smiled slightly, "It should also be known to them who gave them their wealth today." ”

When the carriage of the Hou Mansion arrived at the gate of the city, he waited for a while, and then saw the carriage of the Yuwang Mansion coming slowly, but it was the Jade Concubine who wanted to go all the way, and saw the Lord of Xianluo wearing a white shirt and riding a jujube red horse.

Chu Yueyun lowered the car curtain: "Concubine Yu and the county lord of Xianluo are here, Chu Yuezi arranged such a game, I'm afraid it's for you." ”

"She wants to use other people's strength against me, and it doesn't hurt if the soldiers come to block the water and cover the earth." Chu Yue'an said lightly.

The four of them got out of the carriage and gave a salute to Concubine Yu and the lord of Xianluo County.

Concubine Yu was in the car and said with a light smile: "We are also fate all the way, Yuezi, you will come to my car later and talk to me for a while." ”

"Yes." Chu Yuezi blessed her body.

Concubine Yu glanced at the other three again, her eyes were a little colder: "It's not too early, it's time for us to leave." ”

The county lord of Xianluo was on horseback, and glanced at Chu Yue'an coldly: "I'm one step ahead!" Then a whip struck the horse's rump and the horse was raised.

The four of them got into the carriage and headed towards the White Horse Temple, which was far away from the hustle and bustle, and it took two hours to go from the capital.

Because it was about to rain, it was very hot, and Chu Yueyun kept fanning her fan: "This day, why is it still so hot?" Why don't you react at all, aren't you hot? ”

"The mind is calm and naturally cool." Chu Yue'an said lightly, then took out a bottle from his arms, took out a pill, and let her hold it under her tongue.

After entering this pill, he really felt a lot cooler: "Master, you have such a good treasure, you didn't tell me!" ”

"I've already given you the formula." Chu Yue'an snorted, "If your mind was on this, you would have refined it yourself a long time ago." ”

"It's not that I'm not careless, it's just that I've been a little busy lately, and when I'm done with these days, I won't live up to Master's teachings to me." Chu Yueyun touched his head and smiled weakly.

The carriage traveled for more than an hour, and everyone in the carriage was dozing groggy, and the carriage suddenly stopped.

Chu Yuezi hurriedly lifted the curtain and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"There's a convoy ahead."

"This is the car of Yuwangfu, who dares to walk in front of us? Is there any etiquette anymore? Chu Yuezi scolded, "Let the convoy in front of us stop, let's go first." ”

The little guy who came back from the front to inquire about the news said in embarrassment: "Ahead is the convoy of the King of Chu. ”
