Chapter 4 Reckoning

Miao'er was already so hated that she picked up a stick and swept the pots and pans off one by one.

Chef Lin was also shocked when she saw it, "Miao'er, what are you doing here?" Ate bear heart leopard gall? ”

Then I have to catch Miao'er.

"Shall I see any of you touching my handmaid?"

"Miss, even if you are a concubine, you can't bully people like this, right? No wonder the prince broke the marriage contract and remarried the second lady, you are so domineering, does the prince know? ”

The cook is Zhao Wan'er's person, and she is used to bullying Mu Jinxi on weekdays, how can she be afraid of her today?

"That's it, an unfavored concubine really thinks she is the master." The surrounding helpers also began to whisper taunts.

Before Mu Jinxi could open her mouth, another voice came, "What does Prince Ben know?" ”

Dong Limo felt that he was really crazy, and when he saw her thin body coming out, he couldn't help but follow.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just right, you help me evaluate the reasoning, I am a dignified concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I have to pay my own money for a meal, is this like a word?"

"Dig your own money?"

Mu Jinxi motioned Miao'er to search Chef Lin's body, and immediately searched out a money bag.

Chef Lin was not afraid, but instead straightened her chest proudly, "Miss, what are you doing, even if you are the master, you shouldn't search us for no reason, right?" ”

"Chef Lin, let me ask you, how much is your monthly silver as a cook?"

"Three pennies of silver."

"How much money did your husband pay for a month as a sweeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Two pennies of silver. Why, does the eldest lady have any objections? ”

These monthly payments are open and transparent, even if she lies, she will be exposed, so she simply tells the truth.

It's just that she doesn't understand, why is the eldest lady talking about this in a dignified manner?

"There are no objections." Mu Jinxi shook the money bag in her hand and smiled meaningfully, "Miao'er, it's not this." It's another one. In her arms. ”

Miao'er stepped forward and easily took out another money bag, "Miss Hui, there are a total of thirty taels of silver in it!" ”

"Thirty taels of silver, which is equivalent to the sum of the monthly silver of the two of you and your husband for eight years, Chef Lin, how long have you been in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Can you explain to me where this money came from? ”

"This, this is my dowry silver!" Chef Lin was in a hurry.

But she didn't expect Mu Jinxi to laugh even more when she heard this, "Dowry silver? Could it be that Chef Lin's maiden family is also surnamed Xu Cheng? ”

Mu Jinxi said, taking out the silver in the money bag, and on the bottom of the silver, there was a Xu character engraved.

In ancient times, the dowry silver would be engraved with the surname of the main family, which was valued by the main family.

And Mu Jinxi's mother is surnamed Xu!

As soon as these words came out, Chef Lin suddenly sweated profusely, "I, I remembered, this is the reward that the eldest lady gave me." ”

"Oh? Reward? I usually reward Miao'er for a maximum of two dollars, but when I came to you, I directly rewarded thirty taels of silver? Do you think I look like that rich man? ”

Chef Lin was trembling with fright, but her tone was still very affirmative, "The eldest lady and noble person forget things, you rewarded me in parts, let me make more delicious food for the master, if the master asks, let the villain say a few kind words for you." ”

"Oh! It turns out that this is the case, I turned out to be a servant maid next to the prime minister who didn't please him, and ran away to please a person who couldn't even see the prime minister? Never mind. That's okay if you say so. It's just that every time I reward you with money, you save up and come back to me to make a whole mess? ”

Everyone imagined that picture, and some couldn't help but laugh directly.

The next person got a reward and saved money to go to the master to exchange the whole money? No matter how you think about it, I think it's funny!

Dong Limo also understood at this time, this room was full of bullying things, and his momentum was cold in an instant, "Don't tell the truth?" ”

Dong Limo is the prince after all, and as soon as the momentum on his body is released, where are the people around him who dare not tell the truth, and the momentum softened in an instant, "The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life, it is the little lard who blinds his heart, and he asks the eldest lady to collect the money for the meal." ”

As soon as the words fell, Dong Limo's eyes stared gloomily at Chef Lin, who had never seen this formation, and a fishy breath came from under him, and Chef Lin was scared.

"One tael a day, 30 days this month, here are thirty taels, I will hand over a total of one hundred and eighty taels to you, Chef Lin, do you recognize it?"

"No, not so much!" At first, they didn't dare to collect so much money, but they only collected 500 wen a day, but later they saw that Mu Jinxi was weak and easy to bully, and there was a second lady in the backyard to support them, so they became more and more bold, and then they didn't even give money and didn't send food to Mu Jinxi.

The more and more money you want, but to be honest, there really isn't that much!

One hundred and eighty taels, she can't even grab it!

"Don't admit it? Then I can only report to the official to deal with it, how many years will the house slave go to prison for stealing money, according to the law of Dongli? ”

As soon as Chef Lin heard that she was in prison, the whole person instantly collapsed on the ground, if she was imprisoned, her reputation would be ruined, her husband would not want her, and her son would dislike and dislike her as a mother!

She can't go to jail!

"Miss, I admit it! I admit it! ”

"Just admit it! It doesn't matter if you don't have money, some people do, so how can she watch you faithful servants end miserably? You're right? ”

Chef Lin heard the meaning of the words, but she lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

The prince is still here, how dare they speak?

The rest of the kitchen is also trembling, on weekdays, Chef Lin will share some of the benefits with them, but now looking at the posture of the eldest lady, she will not let them go!

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the cold voice ringing out, "The people in this mansion who once received my silver, I advise you to return all of them to me, one point less, and report it directly to the official to deal with it!" ”

When the people present heard this, they trembled instantly, and when they used to divide the money, they spent it in a blink of an eye, and they didn't remember how much money they had at all, but now looking at the posture of the eldest lady, it is real, and they are planted this time.

If you don't spit out the money you eat, I'm afraid it will be really difficult this time.

Once when they were instructed by the second lady, they all felt that it was a beautiful difference, but now that Mu Jinxi is pursuing it, everyone thinks that the second miss is digging a pit for them!

If it weren't for her overt and covert instructions, how could they dare to be so bold?

Thinking like this, everyone is a little more annoyed with the second lady.

Mu Jinxi got a complete finish, and her heart was naturally very comfortable, looking at Dong Limo on the side and asking, "His Royal Highness the Prince, after the play is over, aren't you still leaving?" ”

Dong Limo held his breath, he couldn't go up, he couldn't get down, "You just finished using this prince, and you turned your head and kicked it?" ”
