Chapter 124: It is better to raise the soup and stop the boiling than to draw the salary from the bottom of the kettle

When the bookkeeper saw Mama Zhang like this, he was already frightened, and the whole person knelt on the ground and trembled.

"Don't you want to say it too?"

"No, no, no... The eldest lady, the little one said, the little one said everything..."

Shen Junru hooked her lips slightly and held the teacup, as if she was waiting for Mr. Bookkeeper to say something one by one.

About three months ago, Mama Zhang came to the farm, at that time it was not long after Shen Junru came back from Jiangnan, and the deeds and account books of Zhuangzi were still in the hands of Master Shen, and they were taken care of.

And Mama Zhang is her nurse again, relying on her shelf to be powerful here.

The surname Hu is the account office, so he naturally colluded with her.

Most of the silver that was greedy for ink was given to the people above by Mama Zhang, as for who this person above was, Mama Zhang guarded against him and never mentioned it to him.

There is no conclusive evidence, and Shen Junru has no way to directly buckle the pot to Aunt Yun's head.

"Miss, what are we going to do next?"

"If you want to find out the people behind you, you can't startle the snake."

"What do you mean, Miss?"

"Leave him and Mama Zhang's lives first, and that Wu Ergouzi, I'm afraid that there are still people in this Zhuangzi."

"The old slave also thinks so, so what should we do?"

"It's a pity that I don't have so many people available in my hands now, you see, how many of those families guarding outside are our people, and how many have already been bought?"

"Old slave, let people investigate thoroughly."

Shen Junru shook her head slightly and said.

"It's better to raise the soup to stop the boiling than to draw the salary from the bottom of the kettle."

Miss, this is going to start from the root.

"Keep an eye on the point, whoever dares to leave the Zhuangzi without permission will take it!"

What happened here can't be hidden, but this place is in the suburbs and countryside, there is a certain distance from the Shen Mansion, and it is not easy to spread what happened here, and the person who dares to act rashly must be the person who is behind the scenes and planted here!

"Yes, slaves and maids understand."

"The rest is business as usual. Cai Wei, you sort out these accounts, Yingyue, you go to Mama Zhang and Hu's room to search, Cai He, you go to the kitchen to see how the lunch is prepared, His Royal Highness, the county lord and Lin Gongzi are all here, don't slack off. ”

"Yes, slaves and maids."

Shen Junru instructed one by one, these things don't need to be known to others. ”

"The slaves and maids are saved, the eldest lady is relieved, Mama Zhang and Hu Ledger will also be secretly detained, and they will not attract the attention of others."

Shen Junru nodded with satisfaction, the few people left by her mother were even more useful than she imagined.

This way, if it weren't for their help, I'm afraid she wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

pinched her eyebrows slightly, a little tired rose in her heart, she was bound to guard the family business left by her mother!

Whether it's for himself or for Ah Yu.

It's just that Mama Zhang's betrayal again and again made her tired, this person who has been with her for more than ten years, and the person she used to trust the most, actually betrayed her a long time ago, and the Qiulan who stayed in Jiangnan...

When she wanted to go back to Beijing, Qiulan took the initiative to stay first when she was unwell, and then return when she was well, Shen Junru had not been reborn at that time, so she left her in Jiangnan, and now that so much time has passed, Qiulan has no news, I am afraid that she is unwilling to come back, and she was not mentioned in her cousin's letter last time, and she should be reminded to remind her cousin to be careful of this Qiulan. Why didn't she find out before, Qiulan's head was also quite scheming!

Lunch was quickly ready, and someone was sent to summon Shen Yu who was still jumping up and down in the orchard, and after waiting for a while, he saw Shen Yu holding a basket in his hand, and it was the county lord of Mingzhu who was chasing after him.

"Sister, Sister, look, I picked so much..."

"Sister Junru, I picked a lot, all of them are big and full."

It turned out that these people were actually racing to pick peaches to see who picked the most.

The two of them rushed to Shen Junru almost one after the other, holding the peach basket in their hands high, and Lin Liangsheng, Zhao Runzhi and others not far away came slowly.

It's rare, Lin Liangsheng didn't run away when he saw the lord of Mingzhu.

The reason is the same, because Shen Yu's hairy monkey temperament has sucked most of the attention of the county lord of Mingzhu.

The two of them are competing on the tree and picking peaches in the competition, but they have a similar smell.

"Nonsense, I'm the best at the top, the most sunny and sweetest on the tree, and I haven't been pecked by birds and insects, Sister, you taste it, it's definitely sweeter than the ones in her basket."

"You're talking nonsense, I'm sweet!"

"Humph! Hu is not talking nonsense, just taste it. ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Shen Junru couldn't help but laugh and cry.

"It's all picked from the homeland, how can anyone dislike their own things badly? I think it's all good, you guys, you're almost done all the work of the fruit farmers, it's hard, right? Lunch is ready, go wash your hands, and you can eat later. ”

Shen Yu grinned, as if inviting merit, and said.

"Sister, I'm smart."

This guy turned out to be fooling people into picking fruits.

As much as he bullied Mingzhu, he looked smart like this, but he was actually impulsive and couldn't help it.

Shen Junru smiled, but she didn't dare to praise him in front of Mingzhu.

"Dongmei, take it and ask someone to wash it, and everyone will taste it later, and pick it yourself, it's sweeter."

"Yes."

"This is the fruit of my own labor, and Shen Gongzi and Mingzhu have picked a lot."

Lin Liangsheng, who came later, shook the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile.

He also had a bamboo basket in his hand, which contained a few peaches, much less than Shen Yu and the Mingzhu County Lord.

Shen Junru said with a smile.

"Lin Gongzi doesn't pick as many as the two little babies, and you can only eat some small ones later, and the big sweet ones will be rewarded to those who pick more."

"Sister, do you really treat us as little babies? It's also rewarded, isn't it ashamed? ”

Shen Yu muttered, his face was slightly red, he picked a lot of peaches, and his hands were prickly, so he hurriedly soaked his hands into the copper basin brought by the little maid, and the cold water was excited, it was indeed much more comfortable.

The same is true for the county lord of Mingzhu over there, he glanced at Shen Yu, pursed his lips, and said.

"What Sister Junru said is, this kind of reward, let's give it to the child, Shen Gongzi should not be polite."

"You're welcome, the big and sweet will definitely be rewarded to you, my manly husband, how can I compete with the little baby."

"Hmph, you're the little baby! The lord of this county is not like you, a monkey in the sky. ”

The two didn't agree on a word, scolded each other, snorted, and turned their heads to the other side.

Shen Junru was stunned for a moment by the quarrelsome posture of the two people, and couldn't help but chuckle, sure enough, they were still little babies.
