Chapter 70: Reversal

It has been a few years since the eldest lord passed away, and it is really hard for the eldest lady to run the big house alone. Therefore, the old lady often helps the big room in private, which is also something that the other rooms can see through and not say, but because of this, with the help of the old lady all year round, the other rooms will inevitably be a little red.

Therefore, the three hundred taels of silver are actually just a fuse, and the old lady has indeed given a lot of benefits to the big house in private. Yes, at this time, she just wanted to clear it up and no one believed it.

Seeing that the old lady and the Liu family had nothing to say, the Song family lowered the sneer and smugness in his eyes, and stood up again: "Forget it, everyone knows the situation of the big house, and it is understandable that the old lady wants to help the big house, so let's not care." ”

It was the Song family who came out to stir up trouble, and it was the Song family who came out to pretend to be a good person in the end...... Looking at Song's two-faced style, the old lady was so angry that the corners of her mouth twitched, but with the current situation, she couldn't say anything.

It's really annoying to her!

Song took the old lady's anger into his eyes, but in his actions, he had no intention of stopping.

She quietly glanced at the third lady Tang on the side, and Tang quickly understood, and when she stood up and said, "Second sister-in-law, you didn't say that. As the widow of a general, my sister-in-law has a pension issued by the court every year, and when my sister-in-law got married, she brought a lot of dowry, so the few shops in my sister-in-law's name earned every month were not less than any of our rooms, right? ”

"Also, according to the rules of our family, all the dowries brought by the daughter-in-law are not included in the family property, and the income generated by those dowries does not have to be handed over...... In this way, the sister-in-law is earning her own money, and she is still living with the Lin family and the imperial court! Isn't that unfair to us? "The Tang family and the Song family were originally cousins, and at this time, singing and harmonizing the ground, the matter became more and more serious.

The old lady is not a fool, if she said that she didn't know what Song's idea was in the morning, but by this time, she finally tasted something.

"Then according to the idea of the second and third rooms, how should this matter be handled?" The old lady sneered and looked at the equally mean cousins, her slightly cloudy eyes flickering with a dull glimmer.

When Song heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and quietly glanced at Tang.

Tang nodded imperceptibly, and then stood up again and said according to the words discussed with Song in advance: "The old lady has been helping the big house openly and secretly for so many years, and how much benefit the big house has gained, we won't talk about it for the time being." Just to ask for a fairness, the daughters-in-law hope that the big house will be able to take 10,000 taels of silver every year in the future to hand it in, I don't know what the sister-in-law thinks? ”

10,000 taels of silver a year? The shops under her name have a net income of only 20,000 taels of silver per year, and because she only has one daughter, Yingxin got married this time, and she put most of her dowry into it, which is 10,000 taels every year, and the burden is really heavy for the current situation of the big house.

Seeing that Liu just frowned and didn't speak, Tang couldn't help but smile proudly, she didn't urge, just silently waited for Liu to open his mouth to compromise. After all, it is not easy for the old lady to speak for the big house, and although the 10,000 taels of silver she proposed is a bit excessive, it is not to the extent that the big house cannot support it, so in the end, no matter how the Liu family struggles, this 10,000 taels of silver every year will inevitably be handed over!

Lin Yingxue watched silently from the side for so long, and knew that this turmoil was really aimed at the eldest lady.

Looking at the smugness on the faces of the Song family and the Tang cousins, Lin Yingxue frowned, and after a little thought, she walked out of the inconspicuous corner.

"Mother, grandmother." Lin Yingxue's sudden voice broke the atmosphere around her, which was so heavy that it was almost solidified, and also attracted everyone's attention.

Song turned his head and glared at Lin Yingxue with displeasure, "This is a matter between adults, what do you have to say as a child?" ”

"Back to her mother, Yingxue just didn't understand, she originally called everyone over, didn't she want to find out where the three hundred taels of silver came from? Why is it now talking about the matter of asking the eldest aunt to pay the case every year? Lin Yingxue asked innocently as if she hadn't noticed Song's displeasure at all.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the three hundred taels of silver is just an introduction, and the ultimate goal is to make the big house pay the score every year, but Lin Yingxue is good, she actually ran out to ask such a stupid question, and for a while, the people around couldn't help but laugh out loud with disdain.

"Heh, what a stupid boy." Song's tone was intimate, but looking at Lin Yingxue's gaze was like looking at a fool, "No one knows where these three hundred taels of silver came from, and where should they start?" You'd better go back to your own courtyard and stay, don't worry about it! ”

Isn't this just to let her stay where she is cool? A sneer crossed Lin Yingxue's eyes, but she still said innocently on her face: "Mother, in fact, Yingxue may be able to know where the three hundred taels of silver came from." ”

Lin Yingxue's stalking finally made the Song family a little impatient, "Okay, tell me, how can you know where the three hundred taels of silver came from?" ”

Seeing that the Song family finally jumped into the pit she dug, Lin Yingxue lowered her head and pulled the smile from the corner of her mouth, but her mouth said with some uncertainty: "On weekdays, we go out with more silver tickets and broken silver, these three hundred taels of silver, no one can just take it out of thin air, as long as you go to the money village you often go to and ask, who in the Lin family has exchanged cash in the past two days, isn't it clear?" ”

Song originally thought that Lin Yingxue couldn't say anything, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her would grasp the root of the matter at once, her face turned pale for a while, and she couldn't say anything to refute Lin Yingxue for a while.

The old lady and the Liu family originally suspected that all of this was designed by the Song family today, so they naturally would not let go of this opportunity at this time, and immediately sent someone down to investigate.

The Song family knew that they couldn't hide it today. And everyone knows in their hearts that this matter is set up by her and catching substantive evidence are two concepts, the former will only make the old lady and the Liu family dissatisfied and defensive against her, but the latter will make the relationship between her and the old lady completely stiff, and even the people in the big house may turn against her because of this...... That's not a good thing for her!

Originally, I wanted to use this to kill the majesty of the big house, but I didn't expect this majesty to be killed, but I lost myself!

The more Song thought about it, the more angry she became, and she thought that the reason why the current situation was caused was because of Lin Yingxue, so she couldn't help but turn her head and glanced at Lin Yingxue fiercely, with a fierce look in her eyes, as if she wanted to tear off a piece of meat from Lin Yingxue's body.

And just when the atmosphere became more and more delicate, the subordinates who went out to verify also came back soon.
