The old lady hadn't slept yet, and after Tao's mother passed the word, Shen Yu took Sheng Jinxi into Heshoutang.

The eldest lady hadn't seen enough of the excitement, so she also brought Cai Wei to follow.

The old lady was looking through an account book under the lamp, and in the dim light, her white hair was like snow.

When the second lady entered the door, she cried and complained, "Old lady, you have to call the shots for Jin Xi, he and Sheng Jinxu had a bit of a quarrel in the school this afternoon." Jin Xi, the elder brother, let him go everywhere, but who knew that Sheng Jinxu actually had a big fight, you look at the child who beat him, he was covered in injuries. ”

The old lady raised her head and glanced at Sheng Jinxi, who was full of excitement.

Sheng Jinxi is used to being domineering at home, and no one pays attention to it, but this old lady, he is worried in his heart.

Sheng Jinxi was raised in the second room, when he first entered the Sheng family, the old lady saw him, his eyebrows were clear, but he didn't know what was going on, he was now a gangster, tall and thin, and looked like a thief.

Now, he was covered in dirt and bruises, but his eyes were not honest and dripping.

The old lady looked at Sheng Jinxu again, and contrary to Sheng Jinxi, the child was neatly cleaned up, and his wounds had been treated. A pair of eyes are clear and bright, quiet and well-behaved.

The old lady is a person who understands, and after a few glances, she has already guessed seven or eight points.

"Daughter-in-law Yanming, what do you say?" The old lady looked up and asked.

Shen Yu said: "No matter what the reason is, the fight is real, and both of them are at fault." However, in terms of body shape and strength, Xu'er is not Jin Xi's opponent, if it is Xu'er who beats people like this, we don't admit it. ”

The old lady nodded slightly, and she lowered her head and continued to look at the ledger.

The second lady couldn't sit still, and said in her heart, the old lady's attitude is unclear, and she won't want to favor the big house again, right?

She was about to say something, but Sheng Jinxu stepped forward.

He knelt at the feet of the old lady, and said in a childish voice: "Grandmother, Xu'er fought with Brother Jin Xi in the school, it was Xu'er who did something wrong, my mother said that the gentleman didn't move his mouth, and Xu'er accepted the punishment." ”

Sheng Jinxi gritted his teeth, "If you punish him, you should punish him severely." ”

The old lady cast an appreciative look at Sheng Jinxu, this child is young, but he is not clear.

It is even more obvious who is right and who is wrong.

The second lady smiled dryly, "Everything between the children is a trivial matter, it will be okay if you admit your mistakes early, so exciting, even the old lady is alarmed, why is this trouble?" Our second room is not a matter of care, just on the matter, there must be a right and wrong, right? ”

The old lady flipped the page and looked intently at the ledger.

There was silence in the living room, and no one answered.

The second lady was feeling embarrassed, and Mother Tao came in and said, "Old lady, someone is here." ”

The old lady said: "Let him in, it just so happens that everyone is here, and give me a staff to see what's going on." ”

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a black silk cloth dress and combing his back walked in.

Seeing this person, the second lady's face was very ugly, and she asked what was going on with her eyes.

The old lady asked, "Are you the shopkeeper of the Victorious Tea Shop?" ”

"Yes, the villain is rich and rich, and I have seen the old lady."

The old lady glanced at the visitor a few times, and slowly spoke, "Shopkeeper Ma, I have read the account book you sent, there are some problems here, please explain them to my wife one by one." ”

The shopkeeper of the winning tea shop only dealt with Shen Yu in the evening.

The tea shop's shoddy deception of foreign merchants was broken, and Shen Yu asked the shopkeeper to send all the account books to the old lady, and in addition, she also sent a man to report the incident to the old lady one by one.

Businessmen are honest, and in Shen Yu's view, it is not a trivial matter for tea to be shoddy and deceive customers.

It seems that the old lady thought of a piece with her, stayed up late to read the account book, and summoned the horse shopkeeper over at night.

The old lady asked Mother Tao to hand over the account book, "Ma shopkeeper, I folded up a few pages here, the tea leaves in the warehouse and the ones out of the warehouse do not match, and there is also a problem with the payment." ”

The shopkeeper took the account book, turned a few pages, and a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.

The account book was prepared by him in advance to deal with the Sheng family, but he didn't expect the old lady of the Sheng family to have a vicious eye, and she could see the problem after turning a few pages.

The second lady squeezed out a smile and said: "Old lady, if I remember correctly, the victory tea shop is in the name of our second room, since it is a matter of the second room, I won't trouble the old lady, I will definitely check it carefully when I go back." ”

"Ahem...... "The eldest lady lowered her face, "Usually manage the tea garden, you don't use the people in the second room to dry the tea, you don't use the place in the second room, and when you talk about business, you don't use the name of the big house less." How did you start talking about the big house and the second room at this time? ”

The second lady has coveted the business of the big house for not a day or two, and the eldest lady has long been dissatisfied.

She looked at the shopkeeper of the tea shop again, and said: "The location of the winning tea shop is good, the supply is sufficient, and it is counted in the Sheng family, if I remember correctly, this shopkeeper is my sister's cousin, right?" ”

"You...... Lu Qinfang! The second lady clenched her fists.

She endured it again and again, and it took a long time to change her expression, and she turned her head to the old lady and said, "Old lady, who made my life miserable, I lost my husband at a young age, Yanwei is not a climate, the second room has to rely on me as a woman to support, and there is not even a trusted person around." If it weren't for the help of my mother's brothers over the years, I would have been bullied to death. ”

The eldest lady said: "It's your business who you want to favor, I'm afraid that you will do a black-hearted business and even implicate our big house." ”

"You make it clear, what is black-hearted trading, the blackest is you, you can't compare to that woman in your life, and you can buy bandits to kill people, you are the most pitiful, your own son can't keep it, and a good family property can only be given to someone else's son......"

"Shut up!" The eldest lady stood up suddenly, and the second lady was poking her pain.

Seeing that the two of them were about to make a move, the old lady shouted angrily in a deep voice, "Enough! Shut up! ”

The old lady was furious, and the two immediately died down.

The old lady said: "In front of outsiders, you are becoming more and more presumptuous, aren't you?" Get back to me. ”

The old lady has been in charge of the Sheng family for many years, and she is a man of the hour who can go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, full of majesty, and the two ladies, together with the shopkeeper of the horse, are too frightened to speak.

After the matter was over, the old lady left Shen Yu behind.

The old lady said: "Fake accounts are just the appearance, shoddy, deceiving foreign guests, who knows how much is behind this?" ”

"Old lady, this is the business of the second room, under the nose of the second aunt, she won't know it, right?" Shen Yu hesitated.

The old lady sighed, "If the water is clear, there are no fish, I have always turned a blind eye to the business of the second room, but shoddy will only ruin the reputation of the Sheng family and implicate the entire Sheng family's business, this matter must be investigated." ”

The old lady looked at Shen Yu, "You take someone to investigate this matter, and the Sheng family tea shop is closed for rectification." ”
