Jiang Zuiyao didn't understand this, but the Feng family had been in the Shao family for a few years longer than Jiang Zuiyao, so he immediately understood it, and insinuated: "Mama Li doesn't have to worry, if you are really wronged, even if your mother doesn't care, there is still the eldest young master to make the decision for you." ”

These words instantly ignited Jiang's anger, and he glared at Feng and said, "What are you talking about?" Did I say I don't care? ”

Feng knew that these words would make the Jiang family unhappy, so he pretended to be embarrassed and whispered: "The eldest young master's ears are soft, and if Mama Li cries a few times, the eldest young master will definitely be partial." ”

Shao Ziqing's ears are soft? Oh, if Shao Ziqing's ears are soft, there will be no ruthless people in this world.

When Jiang Zuiyao on the side heard this, he couldn't help but secretly smile contemptuously, this Feng family would argue that no one should be offended by two sentences, but it was enough to make Jiang Shi look down on Mama Li more and more.

Jiang lowered his eyelids in disgust and glanced at Mama Li, Mama Li immediately panicked, and hurriedly said: "The slave is just a nurse, how can the eldest young master care about the safety of the slave and maid, the eldest young master is the most filial, if there is a lady in charge, the eldest young master will be the master for the slave and maid." ”

Jiang Zuiyao looked at Mama Li's humble appearance at the moment, and knew that this person was a master who ate soft and feared hard, and she had to hold the power to manage the East Courtyard in her hands, so that Mama Li would not dare to bully her easily.

Jiang Shi sat on the chair without saying a word, and his straightforward appearance made everyone present sweat, but Jiang Zuiyao didn't care.

After a long while, Xue Qing came back, and Jiang asked directly, "How is the investigation?" ”

Xue Qing replied truthfully: "The slave maid has asked several subordinates in the East Courtyard, but they haven't asked anything, and they are very scared when they mention Mama Li, and they don't know anything. ”

Jiang's expression was a little solemn: "Go on." ”

Xue Qing said again: "The slave and maid then searched Mama Li's bedroom, and she was very frugal, and she didn't find anything wrong. ”

Jiang took over the account books and was in charge of the Shao family for so many years, she was very familiar with the account books of the family's expenses, but there were no flaws in them.

Mama Li is an old fritter in the end, she has already prepared a backhand, how can she stupidly hide the greedy money in her room, and how can she let people find out the flaws in the account books, when she said to Jiang: "Madam, the slave is really wronged!" The young lady is not right-minded, and she wants to take away the power to take charge of the East Courtyard, so she fights the slave maid! ”

In this way, Mama Li said it several times, and Jiang, who had never expressed her opinion, finally expressed her attitude at this moment: "Take? Since she is the eldest young lady, she should be in charge of the East Courtyard, I want to ask you, when does the Shao family need a grandmother to take charge of the courtyard? ”

Mama Li immediately panicked: "The slave maid does not dare to overstep her authority to take charge of the East Courtyard, these are all arranged by the eldest young master." ”

At this moment, Jiang Zuiyao, who had not spoken, spoke: "According to Mama Li's words, if the eldest young master takes over the Shao family in the future, then Mama Li can also overstep her authority and take charge of the Shao family?" ”

These words hit the Jiang family's heart heavily, Shao Ziqing is the eldest son, and he can indeed take over the Shao family in the future, but how can the Jiang family tolerate it?

Mama Li was afraid that this would displease the Jiang family, so she said angrily to Jiang Zuiyao: "Young lady, you are a fool!" ”

Jiang Zuiyao smiled coldly, sneering and cold, walked into the room and came out again, holding a blue brown paper account book in his hand, and said to Mama Li: "Mama Li, don't you want to prove your innocence?" The account books are here, let's make it clear today! ”

！！

Mama Li looked at the account book in Jiang Zuiyao's hand in horror, she knew very well what was written in it, when did she get it?

That's impossible! No way!

Jiang Shi frowned, and asked suspiciously, "Isn't the account book in my hand?" How do you have one too? ”

Jiang Zuiyao slowly stepped forward, threw the account book in his hand on the table, looked at Mama Li with disdain and said, "Mother, don't be deceived by this old woman, the book in my mother's hand is fake." ”

Jiang Shi hurriedly picked up Jiang Zuiyao's account book and opened it, and compared it with the one Xue Qing brought, every account could be corrected.

It coincides with the New Year, and the food and clothing in the East Courtyard are as many as 100 taels, taking the expensive snow pigeon as an example, Xue Qing's account book says that the snow pigeon bought a total of ten catties, three taels and one catty, a total of thirty taels. But Jiang Zuiyao's account book said that the snow pigeon was one tael and one catty, and it only cost ten taels of silver, and the merchant who sold the snow pigeon was given a benefit fee of five taels of silver, and the remaining fifteen taels of silver?

It stands to reason that the cheapest snow pigeon is also two or two pounds, but it is conceivable what kind of defective goods this two and one pounds of snow pigeon is, and the trader can have that good money, which will inevitably help Mama Li to be shoddy, and the two will share the spoils afterwards!

The pen and pen are compared, each pen is hidden and deducted, the east courtyard is out of the courtyard, and the monthly expenses are very large, so the pen is calculated, and the silver that Mama Li secretly swallows every month is enough to surprise people!

At this moment, Jiang's face was completely cold, and he asked coldly: "Mama Li, what else do you have to say?" ”

Mama Li shook her head in a panic: "That's not the case, the slave maid has never seen this account in the hand of the young lady, this is obviously what she faked and framed the slave maid!" ”

Jiang Zuiyao smiled coldly: "Heh! My account and yours are every one of the matches, then I have to get your account in advance to falsify, this book can not be written in three or two days, you have to keep accounts every day, is it that Mama Li's account book has been lost for so many days, will you not know? Besides, even the handwriting is exactly the same! Mama Li, are you and my mother three-year-olds? ”

In this way, Mama Li was really speechless, and she couldn't find any reason to explain.

Mama Li knelt on the ground uneasily, unable to care about the pain on her body, her mind was in a mess, thinking about how to save herself.

It's just that Jiang Zuiyao couldn't give Mama Li such an opportunity, and said: "Also, my mother will give me a hundred taels of silver every month, but I have been married into the Shao family for a year, let alone a hundred taels of silver, and I haven't even seen a tael of silver, where did the silver go?" ”

Faced with Jiang Zuiyao's question, Mama Li couldn't answer, and Jiang Zuiyao's eyebrows suddenly coldened: "In my opinion, it's better to send someone to search his son's residence, and there will definitely be something to gain." ”

"Don't! No! Mama Li objected instantly, and her knees on the ground had begun to tremble slightly.

Jiang Shi looked at Mama Li's weak heart, she didn't have to ask anything, she guessed everything.

With a deep sigh of relief, Jiang Shi said coldly: "Mama Li, you know that Ziqing cares about you, a nurse, if Ziqing knows about this, what will he think?" ”

Compared with the matter of embezzling the Shao family's money, Mama Li seemed to care more about this matter, and her face changed dramatically and begged: "Madam, the slave begs you, don't tell the eldest young master!" If the eldest young master knows that the slave maid has done these things, he will be cold, the slave begs you, don't let the eldest young master know. ”

It's just that Jiang didn't give her such a chance.

She looked at Shao Ziqing who cared about the nurse in front of her for more than 20 years, how could she, a mother, not be jealous, between the touch of her lips, she only gave Mama Li despair: "I knew today, why bother in the first place?" ”

Mama Li shook her head in refusal to accept it, she was no longer as arrogant as she used to be, and kowtowed again and again: "The slave knows the mistake, the slave knows the mistake, the slave and the maid are willing to accept any punishment, but only beg the lady, don't tell the eldest young master." ”

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the door that made Mama Li discouraged: "Mama Li, what's wrong with you?" ”

I saw that Shao Ziqing looked at Mama Li with a worried face, stepped over the threshold and walked in.
