What's so angry is that Madame still helped Miss Yuyan speak. Every time she went to Huanmeng Pavilion, Miss Yuyan looked like she was on top, and she didn't even want to give them tea.

On the contrary, in Miss Yujun's place, Mama Guan felt a trace of respect.

It's just that because of Xu's orders, Mama Guan didn't dare to be too instructive to Yujun.

However, even if Mama Guan does not teach wholeheartedly, Yujun is also Bingxue smart, she understands as soon as she speaks, her small body is straight, and her every move reveals the rigor and dignity of etiquette from her delicateness.

In the Peach Leaf Pavilion, Xu was looking at this year's account books, his slender fingers were playing with the abacus, the beads collided, making a soft sound, and there was a sound of wind outside. Xu's heart was not turbulent, and he sat in a mink jacket embroidered with gold flowers, holding his back straight, and his face was calm.

There was a girl in a red jacket kneeling in front of her, her eyes were red, she looked like she had cried, the tears on her face had dried, and the light powder on her face was slid by the tears, but she was not loose makeup, she was sobbing in a low voice.

"You still have the face to cry." Che'er half-knelt on the warm couch, slowly grinding a half-inch square Wencai red inkstone in her hand, and while grinding, she turned her head sideways to the kneeling maid on the ground and said, "Who gave you the courage to privately embezzle the monthly money that Mrs. rewarded to the mother-in-law who guarded the garden gate." That's it, you dare to take half of the money that Mrs. gave to buy the little girl, and you also bought the little girl and hid it from the lady. Do you take your lady for a deaf person, or a blind person! I think you should be kicked out of the mansion, or handed over to the subordinate office. ”

Lisifu - the general government in charge of slave books in various parts of the capital, if the subordinate makes a mistake, the master does not want to lose the reputation of cruelty, he will hand over the subordinate to the subordinate government to dispose of, where the subordinate will only be sold into a lower slave, and even because of the mistakes they have made, they will be harsh by the new master's family, and some will live on the streets, or starve to death, or freeze to death, or be taken away by gangsters.

Subordinates and slaves are not of the same rank, and if she becomes a slave all of a sudden, then she simply doesn't want to live.

When the maid heard this, she hurriedly crawled to Xu's side, grabbed Xu's pale yellow mink skirt tightly with both hands, and cried and begged in a dumb voice: "Madame, spare the slave and maid, the slave and maid swallow this money privately, not for themselves, but for the sake of treating their brothers and sisters in the suburbs." begged the lady to open the net, and the slave was willing to do anything for the lady. ”

Xu Shi fiddled with the abacus, and while fiddling with the pen, he said: "Last year, you secretly swallowed the monthly money of the mother-in-law who guarded the garden, and it was generally seven coins of silver, and at the end of last year, you and the buying lady embezzled the money of the young lady's rouge, which was fifty taels, but bought inferior rouge for the young lady. ”

Xu Shi counted the accounts and sneered: "According to statistics, Ah Shu, you have swallowed eighty taels of silver." According to the law of our Duanqi Dynasty, if a slave covets the master's property for more than ten taels, he will be punished as a slave and shall not be changed to a good citizen, and if he exceeds twenty taels, he will be thirty if he does not wash the clothes for the dance building, and if he does not wash the woman in the dance building, he will be punished as a cheap slave, and he will be a eunuch when he gives birth to a male and a female slave. Ah Shu, you and I are the master and servant, I am willing to spare you once, are you willing to go to the soup for the master and me? ”

"Yes, yes. The slave is willing. "Ah Shu kowtows like pounding garlic.

"Pear Flower Pavilion ushered in a new owner, I haven't congratulated Yujun on her housewarming, I always have to send something to show my heart. I'd like to send some girls over. ”

Xu Shi reached out and picked up Ah Shu's chin, looked at her peach cheeks and apricot eyes, looked seductive, and couldn't help laughing: "Your appearance is one of the best in the Peach Leaf Pavilion, and it is not a shame to give you to Miss Yujun." ”

Ah Shu's chin was lifted, his body fell to his knees, his neck was sore, and he looked at Xu Shi without blinking, "The slave must serve Miss Yujun well, and he will not lose his wife's face." ”

"No, it's not for you to serve her. It's for you to spy on her. Xu's hand held Ah Shu's chin and sighed twice: "Your skin is so good, and your bone appearance is medium." Such a good color, if you fall into slavery, you will definitely be unwilling. Your sister in the suburbs looks as good-looking as you, and you don't want her to be reduced to slavery like you, so go to work in the Pear Blossom Pavilion and monitor Miss Yujun for me, and I want to know Miss Yujun's every move. ”

Ah Shu swallowed.

She had actually seen Yujun many times, and that summer, Yujun ran to Xu's yard wearing a light green Luo shirt to say good morning to Xu's family, and her whole round little face was a silly smile. Yujun saw Ah Shu sweeping the floor under the porch, smiled softly at Ah Shu, and asked Ah Shu to come out of the yard of his wife, seeing that Ah Shu was sweating all over his work, and gave Ah Shu a square scarf.

"Watch, Miss Yujun?" Ah Shu couldn't believe it, the Xu family, who was generous and talked and laughed with Aunt Xiao on weekdays, would arrange eyeliner for Pear Flower Pavilion.

Moreover, he also threatened himself in the name of joint sitting.

A trace of horror flashed in Ah Shu's crying red apricot eyes, and a terrifying coolness oozed from his back, and he felt chills all over his body in this inner room heated by charcoal fire.

She trembled slightly, her jaw twitching in Madame's palm.

How could it be.

Mrs. has been in charge of the account books of the house, and the monthly money of the mother-in-law who guards the garden has been passive, and it is impossible for Mrs. to know now.

Mrs. has always been a big family, and the rouge gouache used is a good product of the same water, and she is greedy for dozens of taels of silver, but she has asked the buyer to buy back the inferior rouge to Miss Yuwan several times, according to Mrs. Eyesight, how can she not see the cheapness of the rouge.

No wonder, every time I see Miss Yuwan, she doesn't apply grease powder.

Since you don't apply fat powder, why do you have to let yourself pay for the shopping guys to buy it?

It is to give yourself the money that you want to buy rouge privately.

Moreover, it should be the first time that he embezzled the silver, and his wife found out.

However, Madame did not say anything, and remained silent.

Because the five taels of silver that were embezzled privately for the first time could not reach the fault of transferring it to the Sili Mansion.

Mrs. has been appeasing and nurturing adulterers, and when she has swallowed seventy or eighty taels privately, Mrs. officially threatens herself.

Seventy or eighty taels, you can sit together, even if you don't want to die, you have to take care of your brothers and sisters in the suburbs.

Ah Shu felt cold to the bone, he knew about it early, but he didn't know that it was his wife, and there were girls such as Liusang who accompanied his wife to settle accounts.

They know it, but in the past days, they still have a smile on their faces.

Thinking of those smiles and calm eyes, as well as Madame's deliberate methods of appeasement and nurturing and grasping and threatening herself, she felt that Madame was too strange, too unfamiliar.

and the smiles of the Liusang, which are no longer smiles, but a disguise to prevent the grass from startling the snake.

"The slave came out of the lady's mother's house. When Mrs. Xu returned to Xu's Mansion as a guest, Mrs. Xu personally gave the slave to you. Madame's sake, Mrs. Xu's face, don't embarrass the slave like this. Ah Shu said: "The slave has never learned how to spy on others, and the colored beads and embroidery are also shrewd people, if the slave and maid are exposed." ”
