The ability of the subordinates to step on the low and praise the high is all first-class, who doesn't know, Aunt Gu is already out of breath in the house, especially Ji Erlan's sentence 'A concubine is a concubine, it is something that can be bought and sold' is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. So they can't treat Aunt Gu as a serious master like before, so these people are already a little unkind in their words.

At this time, Ji Tianjiao came out of it and frowned and reprimanded: "You dare to be so rude to your aunt!" ”

"The slaves are not rude, they are telling the truth. The second girl is a serious master in the house, why deceive us to be slaves. "A girl in yellow bit the words 'serious master' to death, quite provocatively, and raised her head to look at Aunt Gu. She was just beaten under Aunt Gu not long ago, and there are still scars on her back that have not grown.

"You're ......!" Aunt Gu glared at her, almost jumped up angrily, and shouted, "Someone!" Drag this down and beat me up! ”

Before Aunt Gu's violent voice fell, the sound of the maidservant suddenly came from the door. "Auntie, Atan next to my wife is here."

Aunt Gu frowned, and glanced at Ji Tianjiao, at this time, what did she let people do? Could it be that she was not treated well by the master, and she also wanted to step on herself? Shh It's overwhelming!

Ah Tan came in from outside the courtyard, blessed Aunt Gu, and said, "Aunt An." Because the wife was going to follow the master to the capital, she was counting the dowries in the warehouse, but many of the things did not match the booklet, so the slave maid came to the aunt and asked if there was anything wrong? ”

Aunt Gu's face stiffened when she heard this, and then she said disdainfully: "Her dowry, why do you ask me?" ”

Ah Tan said unhurriedly: "The second girl said, if the aunt doesn't know, ask the eldest girl." ”

"Ask, ask me?" Ji Tianjiao was confused, and there was a faint bad premonition in his heart. "How do I know?!"

The second girl said that the old lady and the wife are not in good health, and the aunt has helped the old man sort out the accounts for so many years, and the eldest girl has been helping from the side, so she should always know it. Could it be that the big girl has a lot of money in her hands? If it is spread out, won't it make people laugh at our Ji family. What's more, my aunt is the biological mother of the eldest girl, and she can't get rid of the relationship no matter what. ”

"You!" Ji Tianjiao was annoyed and ashamed, of course she knew how much private money Aunt Gu had saved and how she saved it, but what did this dead girl's words mean? Do you want to take all these things on your own head? "What's inseparable, what's inseparable! What are you talking nonsense! ”

Ah Tan said: "The slave maid doesn't dare to talk nonsense, this is what the second girl asked the slave to convey to the eldest girl." Before the master comes back in the evening, if the account is still not clear, the second girl will go to the master to reconcile the account with the eldest girl in person. ”

"What?!" Ji Tianjiao turned her head to look at Aunt Gu, Aunt Gu raised her eyebrows, opened her mouth slightly, and wanted to speak but didn't know how to say it, obviously she didn't come up with a countermeasure. She thought about it, and felt that it was impossible, and felt that Ji Erlan was pretending to be a fox, and then sneered: "Hmph, nonsense." Where does my father have time to take care of such trivial matters! ”

"This slave doesn't know, the slave just came to pass the word." Ah Tan smiled slightly: "There is one more thing, the matter of the subordinates who left the house to receive the silver is indeed the attention of the second girl......"

Ah Tan said here for a moment, looking up at everyone.

When Aunt Gu heard this, she suddenly lost her temper, thinking that it was really Ji Erlan's ghost. The people were also startled, but the frustration had just sprouted, so they heard Ah Tan continue: "But the second girl has asked the master, and the master has already nodded. ”

The courtyard suddenly remembered an exclamation: "The second girl really didn't lie to us!" Immediately, they all smiled, and they were even more excited than before.

Seeing this scene, Ah Tan couldn't help but think of what Ji Erlan told her, and felt a sense of convincing in her heart.

The people's good impression of Ji Erlan was rising, and Aunt Gu was already angry to death, and when the words in the audience's mouth were suddenly angry, she was about to explode her lungs! When did Ji Erlan become so popular!

But the words have come to this point, presumably the old man really nodded. But Aunt Gu was angry and suddenly remembered that the old lady had received all the money in the public account to her! Could it be that the lord asked her to give this money? In addition to the people in the old lady's yard who don't move, there are really a lot of people inside and outside the Ji Mansion who want to leave the house! That's more than three hundred taels of silver! This silver is enough to buy these subordinates again! What the hell does the lord think?! Plainly allowed to go out so many silver taels?

Ah Tan looked at the people on the side and asked Gu's: "Does my aunt give them the money from the house first, or deal with the matter of my wife's dowry first?" ”

As soon as Ah Tan asked, everyone's attention was focused. Gu Shi looked at this and that, and he didn't have any idea at all for a while.

Seeing that Aunt Gu was still there in a daze, the people couldn't help but lose their patience, the girl in yellow who was injured before pouted, stabbed another girl who hated Aunt Gu next to her, and said in a small voice: "Aunt Gu has saved a lot of money in private. How much of our wife's dowry has gone into my aunt's purse! Hell if that booklet can be matched! ”

"yes, I know that...... The public account is not accurate......"

Ah Tan hung his head and was silent, so quietly, the audience began to talk about how Aunt Gu had detained people over the years and secretly hid the silver.

Aunt Gu and Ji Tianjiao's scalps were numb on the side!

In the past, others did not dare to speak or communicate privately. This time, those who know the truth and have heard the rumors not only said it, but also exaggerated it a little, the so-called seven points are true, three points are false, and it sounds particularly exciting!

"Oh? Are you serious? ”

At the gate of the courtyard, Mrs. Ji's cold voice suddenly came. Everyone turned around in shock, and saw Mrs. Ji and Ji Erlan entering the courtyard one after the other.

"Gu Shi, tell me, is what they said true or false?"

"Old lady?"

Gu saluted in a panic, and the girls also knelt down in panic.

When Ji Tianjiao saw Ji Erlan following behind Old Madam Ji, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, and decided that Ji Erlan must have said something. She stepped forward and hugged Mrs. Ji's arm, and said half-angrily: "Grandmother, the second sister chews the root of her tongue, how can grandmother listen to her?" Isn't it all clear on the account? There is no such thing as a private possession, it is all Ji Erlan who colluded with these slaves and maids to talk nonsense! ”

When Ji Erlan heard this, she smiled and said, "So, the eldest sister really knows the number on the account?" ”

"I ......" Ji Tianjiao didn't know whether to admit it or not. If she admits it, what will she do if something is really found? If she doesn't admit it, her words are just nonsense and imposing quibbles! She was dumbfounded for a long time, and only said, "Grandmother, don't listen to the second sister'......"

"Shut up!"

The scolding frightened Ji Tianjiao and withdrew his hand.

Old Madam Ji glared at Ji Tianjiao fiercely and said, "Your second sister didn't say anything, but it's you!" indiscriminately accusing others, if it was really raised by my aunt! If you don't know, put me aside!" ”

Ji Tianjiao bit her lip, glanced at Mrs. Ji sneeringly, took a step back, took another step back, bowed her head and stopped talking.

Aunt Gu secretly screamed in her heart when she saw this, but how could she have thought that there would be such a day!

Old Madam Ji had a gloomy face, looked at Aunt Gu, and said, "Gu family, you actually want to trap the Ji family in injustice?" ”

Aunt Gu looked up in amazement: "Old lady? Where did the old lady start with this? Su Rou has worked hard for the house for many years, and she only thinks about the house, how can she trap the Ji family in injustice? ”

"Hmph, if it weren't for today's check! I don't know that the Qin family's dowry is about to be lost! In the future, when this matter spreads, outsiders will still think that I am the dowry of my mother-in-law's daughter-in-law! You said! You are not trapped in unrighteousness for me. It's not that the Ji family is trapped in injustice! ”

"I ...... It's not ......"

"Isn't it?" Mrs. Ji really wanted to count the many incidents of Ji Erlan. But this matter was not said by Ji Erlan at all, but the Gu family provoked public anger and was reported by everyone. Therefore, this anger, she naturally sent it to Aunt Gu's body: "If not, you can tell me carefully, this thing is gone, there must be a place to go!" ”

Ji Mansion is not like other mansions, several houses live together, and it is not their own private treasury, there is only one treasury in total, and the Qin family's dowry is naturally placed here, so it stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with it, but it is Aunt Gu who is in charge of the accounts in Ji Mansion. Aunt Gu has been in power in the Ji family for more than ten years and knows everything about Curry.

She thought that it would be impossible for Qin's things to be spent by the Qin family herself in this life, and she had long regarded them as things in her pocket. Ji Erlan's marriage, when the time comes, it will be easy for her to casually get a good-looking empty shelf.

But she never expected that she would lose control of the Ji family's inner house and become a veritable aunt! "Old lady...... Su Rou didn't know...... Perhaps, maybe it was Mrs. who secretly took it herself, Su Rou really didn't know......"

"Auntie, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." Ji Erlan took a step forward and said, "For so many years, my aunt has never even approached the door of the warehouse, and my aunt has even looked at the key very tightly. If this thing is lost, no matter how it was lost, if the aunt can't produce evidence and can't find the real culprit, I'm afraid she will have to take this responsibility. ”

"I ......"

Aunt Gu opened her mouth to argue, but Ji Erlan glanced at her and said to Mrs. Ji: "Grandmother, since Aunt doesn't know anything, it's better to let someone who knows talk about it......

She looked at the people around her and said, "There are so many people here, it's better to let them repeat what Fang Cai said, and everyone will know it in their hearts." ”
