In the afternoon, the old lady had the habit of taking a nap, and went back to the room to rest after lunch, Lin Yingxin, Lin Yingling and others moved the place where they spoke to the side hall in order not to make noise to the old lady, and Lin Yingxue pulled Lin Yingxiang out to talk alone.

"Eh, eldest sister, it's not that I'm a younger sister, it's just that eldest sister, you don't live in the house now, and you don't know the situation at home!" Lin Yingmeng leaned over to Lin Yingxin's side and said cautiously: "You also saw it today, the jewelry on the fifth sister's head was given by the eldest aunt!" And the eldest aunt has now handed over all the shops and Zhuangzi in her hands to the fifth sister to take care of, looking at this meaning, the eldest aunt is afraid that she will give all these things to the fifth sister as a dowry in the future...... The eldest aunt is so good to the fifth sister, the fifth sister is not a white-eyed wolf, and she is not even willing to make a new dress for the eldest aunt! ”

Lin Yingxin's displeasure with Lin Yingxue had long been seen by Lin Yingmeng and others, and now that she finally found an opportunity, Lin Yingmeng naturally wanted to desperately provoke the relationship between Lin Yingxin and Lin Yingxue.

Sure enough, after listening to Lin Yingmeng's words, Lin Yingxin's face immediately became extremely difficult to look at, but Lin Yingxin couldn't find a chance to talk to Lin Yingxue alone all afternoon, and as soon as she mentioned Lin Yingxue in front of Liu, Liu must have turned the conversation towards Lin Yingxue.

So, Lin Yingxin could only go home with a stomach full of anger in the end.

After Lin Yingxin and Lin Yingxiang left, the others returned to their own courtyards.

"It's a little while before dinner, and Mother doesn't eat much at noon. Come, eat some snacks to cushion your stomach first. Liu looked at Lin Yingxue with concern on his face, and Lin Yingxue couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

"Mother, didn't I send a few pieces of cloth over last time for my mother to make clothes, why don't you take them to make new clothes?" Lin Yingxue frowned and looked at Liu, in fact, she was not complaining about Lin Yingxin's dissatisfaction because of her clothes today, but she felt that she was too careless, and she looked at Liu every day, but she didn't even notice that Liu was wearing old clothes.

"Actually, this dress has only been worn twice, it's not old!" Liu sighed and said helplessly: "Mother is not like you little girls, just a few sets of clothes a year are enough...... Today's thing is that your eldest sister is making too much of a fuss, so don't take it to heart for years. ”

"Mother's ......"

Lin Yingxue was about to say more, but at this time, Lin Zhengjie suddenly walked in from outside the door with a large group of people.

"Father...... Second uncle. Seeing that Lin Zhengjie's face was a little uncertain, Lin Yingxue's nerves couldn't help but quietly tense.

"Why did the second brother come over suddenly? Dinner will be almost ready, let's have dinner together and then go back. Liu naturally noticed the unusual atmosphere, but she still greeted it with a smile.

"Nope." Unexpectedly, Lin Zhengjie's reaction was very cold, "You all stand down." ”

As soon as Lin Zhengjie came in, he had a calm face and wanted to retreat, but everyone can realize that the situation is probably not simple.

The subordinates in the house couldn't help but turn their heads to glance at Liu, and after seeing Liu's nodding, the subordinates retreated, and Lin Yingxue had no intention of retreating from beginning to end.

Lin Zhengjie glanced at Lin Yingxue, and was slightly dissatisfied with Lin Yingxue's behavior, but he still didn't say anything.

"Sister-in-law, the reason why I came to talk to my sister-in-law alone this time is to tell my sister-in-law that I already know about the account, if my sister-in-law doesn't want to make a big fuss, it's better to fill in the account as soon as possible, otherwise my mother will definitely find out that something is wrong when she looks at the account book in a few days." Lin Zhengjie's expression was solemn, and his tone was still bitter, as if the big house had taken a big advantage.

"What's the account?" However, Liu was confused, "I don't know what the second brother is talking about." ”

"Sister-in-law!" Lin Zhengjie saw that he had made his words clear to such a point, but Liu was still pretending to be stupid, he couldn't help suppressing the anger in his heart and said: "I have already asked the housekeeper to look at the account, and there are indeed nearly 10,000 taels of silver on the account." Sister-in-law, I didn't directly stab this matter in order to protect your face, and please don't be ignorant! ”

As Lin Zhengjie spoke, he slapped the table in his hand heavily, and the teacup on the table jumped up with Lin Zhengjie's movements, just like Lin Yingxue's heart at this time.

"Heh, I, Liu Yunxing, sit upright, and I have never filled a penny of the Lin family's money since I was a housekeeper! Lin Zhengjie, you don't spray people here with blood and insult my Liu Yun's innocence! I, Liu Yun, have never done anything like this, and I'm not afraid of making things big at all! Call all the people in the account now, and let's reconcile the accounts and see where the money goes!" "Liu has always been a very upright person, how can he ever be slandered like this. Yes, he blushed with anger on the spot, pointed at Lin Zhengjie's nose, and shouted angrily.

Lin Zhengjie didn't expect that he would kindly come over in private to remind him that it would provoke such a big reaction from the Liu family, and he was also aroused by two points of anger, and shouted in a deep voice to the subordinates outside: "Come on, go and invite all the people in the account room and the housekeeper together!" ”

Such a big movement finally alarmed more than a few people in the account room - the rest of the Lin family also came over to 'understand the situation' after hearing the news.

"What's going on?" Seeing all the people in the account room gathered around to check the account books, the first person who couldn't help but ask questions was Tang.

It's just that none of the people present answered her question, only the Sun Liujia looked up from the pile of account books with an uneasy look and glanced at the Tang clan, and then quickly lowered his head.

After this glance, Tang's legs suddenly weakened, and he slumped to the chair next to him.

The tense atmosphere lasted in the room for a while, and finally the butler stood up and broke the silence, "Back to the master, according to the account book, a total of nine thousand seven hundred and seven hundred and seven dollars of silver are missing. ”

This is the result that Lin Zhengjie has known for a long time, and Lin Zhengjie did not show the slightest surprise at this, "How is it, sister-in-law, do you have anything else to say?" Lin Zhengjie had a tense face, obviously still unhappy because of what happened to Fang Cai.

And Liu obviously didn't expect that there was really a problem with the accounts, her eyes stared, and a majestic momentum immediately emanated from her body.

"Whoever does the tricks and feet better stand up for themselves." Liu's cold gaze swept over the few people who were taking care of the account room.

As long as you have done things under Liu's hands, you know that although Liu seems to have a gentle temper on the surface, he has a very good way of governing the house. Several subordinates looked at each other, each with a look of doubt or horror on their faces.

"Sun Liujia, why is your face so bad?" I don't know who said this, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on the body of the Sun Liujia.

And the Sun Liujia originally had a ghost in his heart, and at this time, when everyone looked at it like this, he immediately couldn't hold it and knelt on the ground with a 'plop', "Big lady, slave, ......" Sun Liujia couldn't help but glance at the Tang family on the side while saying this.

The Tang family was so seen by the Sun Liujia that his face turned pale, and Lin Zhengjie was angry, but he was not confused, he had always seen Liu's personality, and compared to Tang, his heart was obviously more inclined to Liu's side.

"Do you have anything to say to the third brother and sister?" Lin Zhengjie turned his gaze to Tang, although his face was still calm, but there was anger in his tone.

Seeing this, the Tang family knew that the matter could not be hidden, so he simply confessed, "I actually embezzled this silver privately, and then used the help of the Sun Liujia to cover up ......"

No one expected that things would come out so easily, Lin Zhengjie was angry in his heart, but because of the identity of the third lady of the Tang family, he was not too harsh, so he could only suppress the anger surging in his heart and asked: "This is nearly 10,000 taels of silver, I don't know what the third brother and sister are doing?" ”

The third room is from the business path, and it can be said that it is the richest room among the several rooms, but now the Tang family has privately moved so much silver, which is really a bit puzzling.

"I, I lost some ...... when I played cards with other ladies" Everyone in the Lin family knows that Tang loves to play cards, and Tang knows that even if she finds other excuses, she will be exposed sooner or later, so she simply won't hide it anymore.

Looking at Tang's broken jar and broken appearance, the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, Lin Zhengjie was so angry that he almost didn't catch his breath, and before he could say anything, a new round of shock came at him again - "I want to break up." It was Liu's voice.
