"Madam, the master is back." The little maid had sharp eyes, and when she saw the third master coming back, she quickly informed the big maid of Zhaofu, she entered the house, and said back to the Zheng family.

"Didn't you say it would be a few days before you came back? Why did you come back today? Frowning slightly, Zheng muttered in a low voice, got up and walked towards the door.

At this moment, Shen Pei had already returned to Qingfeng Garden, and came straight to the main courtyard, and when he saw the Zheng family coming out, he grabbed her and walked towards the house.

Seeing this situation, Mama Kang hurriedly called the others and didn't follow into the house, Zheng thought that he was looking for someone to see what kind of days were suitable for conception, and wanted to pull her to the inner room, but after he didn't want to enter the house, he dragged himself to sit on the soft couch.

"Husband, let's go to the house." If she did that, it would be too embarrassing here, she reached out to cover the buckle around her neck and looked at Shen Pei.

"Madame, where do you want to go? I have something to discuss with you. Seeing Zheng like this, Shen Pei let go of her and raised his arm to wipe the sweat on his head.

"That's right." Zheng breathed a sigh of relief from his heart. "What do you have to say?"

"Speaking of which, but the deal didn't go well this time, why did you come back so soon?" Some time ago, Shen Pei went out, and before leaving, he said that this time he was going out and that he would have to come back in some days.

"Huh? Yes! It didn't go well, so I came back early, ma'am, how much money is in the account now? "Changfang is not here, Cui's health was not good before, and the middle feed was held in Zheng's hands.

On weekdays, if there is a major event, it is paid from the account of the public high school, and if it is a private matter, it is paid out of his own pocket.

For example, for Shen Xu's thirty-year-old birthday, he took the account of the public middle school, and if he bought a concubine for Shen Pei, he took the account of the third room.

"Is the master asking about the accounts of the public middle school, or is it our own?" As soon as he heard about the accounts, Zheng's heart became vigilant.

"Naturally, it's our own." Looking left and right, Shen Pei got up and poured himself a cup of tea, "I have some things, I have to use silver, see if you can move five thousand taels of silver tickets for me." ”

"Five thousand taels?" Zheng's voice instantly raised, and his eyes widened, "Good and dignified, why does the master need so much silver?" ”

"Besides, the business in the family is presided over by the master, you said that this time the transaction did not go well, what is the matter, shouldn't you go to the public account?"

Saying this, Zheng quickly calculated in his heart that there was still some silver on the account of the third room, which was put on display for others.

Secretly, she still has an account, but even so, it is not so easy to come up with five thousand taels.

"Oh, don't ask, hurry up and get me a silver ticket!" Putting down the cup, Shen Pei looked at Zheng.

Originally, Zheng Shi frowned, but when she saw him like this, she stretched out, she leaned on the soft couch and looked at Shen Pei with a smile, "Master, tell me the truth, what's going on?" ”

Because Shen Pei is in charge of the Shen family's business, he can always pick out some for himself, both openly and secretly.

It stands to reason that he shouldn't be short of money, especially if it's still five thousand taels per mouth.

Could it be that you raised a small one outside?

"What's going on outside, you woman don't care, hurry up and bring me the silver! Don't think I don't know, the number on our books is just for people to see, and you still have a dark account in your hand. ”

Shen Pei's words made Zheng squint, there were indeed secret accounts, but she never told her husband, and he usually didn't ask, so how did he know?

Could it be that there is someone around you who eats inside and out?

"On weekdays, if you make up for your mother's family, I won't care about it, hurry up and get me the silver, otherwise I ......"

"Or what?" Zheng stood up and glared at Shen Pei.

"You have been married to me for so many years, and you have not given me a son and a half daughter, what do you say?"

Mama Kang stayed outside the house, listening to the movement in the house, waving her hand to signal the others to step back, and she took a few steps forward.

Hearing as if there was a quarrel, she quickly lifted the curtain and went into the house.

Zheng stood in front of the soft couch, his eyes were red, and he stared at Shen Pei, Shen Pei seemed to be a little weak-hearted, don't look at her.

"Lord and madam, you two have always been harmonious, what's wrong with you now? Say something slowly, don't hurt the feelings of the husband and wife. ”

As she spoke, she approached Zheng and reached out and tugged at her clothes.

"Mama, master, he's going to divorce me, I'm not alive!" Seeing Mama Kang, Zheng hugged her and cried, Mama Kang was startled and turned to look at Shen Pei.

Being cried like this by Zheng, Shen Pei became more and more weak-hearted, and reached out and touched his nose, "This ...... Isn't that a rush to the point? I'm just going to get some money, but not yet? ”

"Five thousand taels of silver, is that a point?" Zheng Shi cried and spoke resentfully.

Mama Kang comforted the Zheng family, and was shocked again, "Madame, don't worry, maybe the old man is really in a hurry." We don't have so much on our accounts, but if the master needs it, we always have to think of it. ”

Helping Zheng sit down, Mama Kang glanced at her.

She knew in her heart that her wife was in charge of the feed, if she didn't often subsidize her mother's family, let alone five thousand taels, she could get more!

But the question is, the old man is in charge of the family's business, and he shouldn't be short of money, so why should he talk to his wife?

With Mama Kang in the middle of persuading peace, the couple's faces softened a little.

It's just that Shen Pei is still reluctant to say the reason, and the Zheng family has also calculated that he wants to take out five thousand taels, either to take back the accounts outside, or to embezzle part of the Gongzhong, or, like before, pawn the things of the big house.

It's just that in this way, if you want to redeem it again, I'm afraid it will take some time.

As the three Shen Yunlan sisters went to Shen Yunjin's Jinhua Garden, Shen Yunan sat down and ate with the snacks on the table.

While eating, I asked questions, all of which were related to ethnology.

Shen Yunlan answered, and from time to time, Shen Yunjin and Shen Yunjie added a few more words.

While the sisters were talking, Cangshu came in from outside the house and whispered a few words in Shen Yunlan's ear, and Shen Yunlan raised his eyebrows.

"What's wrong?" Like this situation, even if Shen Yunjie saw it, she didn't see it, and Shen Yunjin wouldn't ask more, if there was anything, Shen Yunlan would tell her later, and Shen Yunan was the only one who could ask.

"It's nothing, the second sister likes the sweet wine of Jinyang Building, I wanted people to buy a jar back, but it's not a coincidence, it will take a few days to have it!"

Naturally, this was not the case when she heard it, but she couldn't tell Shen Yunan the truth, so she made up a reason and told her about it.

"Mulled wine? Is it delicious? As soon as he heard that it was related to eating and drinking, Shen Yunan's eyes lit up.

"It's delicious! When I buy it later, I will invite you to try it. Shen Yunjie took the words and described how delicious it was to Shen Yunan.

Shen Yunjin sat next to Shen Yunlan and turned his head to look at her, Shen Yunlan opened his mouth to say a word, but he didn't make a sound, "The third room is arguing." ”
