Chapter 15: What is the Intention?

It's easier said than done.

Seeing that Chen Wenli turned to Aunt Gu so quickly, Dou didn't insist much.

She waved her men out, and there were only two or three of them left in the room.

The third young lady outside, Chen Lu, and her eldest brother Chen Yao stood uneasily.

The movement of the Dou family checking the accounts was not small, and standing here, they naturally heard the cry of Aunt Gu inside.

Listening to the sound there, Chen Lu wanted to run away several times.

But they stood in the middle of many maids, and they could not retreat.

Those voices slapped their brothers and sisters in the face like slaps one after another.

The third lady's maid finally squeezed in from behind: "Third miss, why don't you go back first?" ”

The eldest young master, Chen Yao, wanted to leave when he pulled out his legs.

The third young lady, Chen Lu, kept pulling her eldest brother: "Big brother, don't leave first, we'll wait here." This is our aunt, and if she does make a mistake, then we have a stain on us. Now my aunt says that she is wronged, I believe that our aunt must have something hidden, and we can't just leave. ”

As the eldest son, Chen Hui is relatively shallow-minded, and he can't help but feel a little ashamed when he sees his sister loving his aunt like this.

He felt that it was also necessary for him to protect Aunt Gu, so the two siblings stood at the door and did not leave.

Everyone looked at the two siblings, some watching the play, and some laughing secretly.

It's already like this, Aunt Gu really has the face to say that she is wronged.

But so many people stood at the door, but they didn't actually hear Aunt Gu's defense.

Her voice was deliberately lowered.

I can't hear it from the outside.

The third lady Chen Lu was worried in her heart.

The eldest young master Chen Yao's heart also beat suddenly.

Chen Wenli has always loved his eldest son Chen Yao very much, after all, this is his eldest son.

Thinking back then, seeing that Dou's belly had not moved for a long time, Chen Wenli was also anxious.

This urgency was extinguished at Aunt Gu's.

It was Aunt Gu's eldest son who gave birth to him, and the production was extremely unsuccessful.

In the end, Aunt Gu has always insisted on giving birth.

Since Chen Yao was born, Chen Wenli has almost no lack of Aunt Gu if he has anything.

In those years, her treatment even surpassed that of his wife Dou.

Forget about the small fights before, he is now an official in the court, and he needs money to move around, and money to obtain information, and officials need money to communicate with them on weekdays.

Favoring my aunt has a problem at this time, and one greed is two thousand taels.

This amount is not small, and Chen Wenli is also curious about where this Aunt Gu got the money.

The wife, the housekeeper of the Dou family, is always iron-faced and selfless for these things.

But with the Dou family's good way of running the family, their family can balance the income and expenditure.

But Aunt Gu's performance seems to have a great hidden secret.

Not only is Dou curious, but Chen Wenli is also curious.

Can that money be returned?

When Chen Hua went back, he did not return the pair in person.

She said she was tired and went straight back to her small yard.

It was Apple that came to Dou's side to return the pair.

It's just that the Dou family doesn't have time to see her at all now, so she can only hand over things to a grandmother in charge.

Now the battle in front of the Dou family is not small, and the apple lingered for a while, and then went back.

When Apple returned, Chen Hua was lying on the table carving wood.

Chen Hua was serious, when she had nothing to do in the carriage, she actually regretted that she didn't take a piece of wood to go over to see how it felt.

After all, she had so many weapon drawings in her head, Chen Hua thought, she couldn't have a treasure in her heart but couldn't use it.

Who knows when she'll forget.

Maybe when should you find a time when no one is there and draw the drawings one by one.

Apple saw that Chen Hua was careful, so he didn't bother her.

But she wouldn't leave her alone here, so she took a wet rag and spun around, rubbing this and posing that from time to time.

Only Chen Hua carved things in the room, and the sound was particularly loud.

Regular, one at a time.

This kind of tranquility is completely different from the tension on Dou's side.

After Aunt Gu finished speaking, there were tears in her eyes.

"I didn't want to say much about this, but I really thought about my lord, so I didn't say anything in order to take all the credit on me. All in all, it was my fault that I misappropriated the money in the house for my own selfish motives without my sister's consent. Sir, sister, you will cure me of my sins. ”

Chen Wenli's head has gone from buzzing at the beginning to suddenly now.

For a while, he didn't know what to say.

He looked at Dou Shi: "Don't blame her for acting like this, I said, why Zhao Yan has been smiling at me a little more these days, it turns out that Aunt Gu is helping me move around in the back." Forget it. ”

Dou listened to Aunt Gu's words, and his face was actually not very good-looking.

Because she thought about it a lot, she couldn't imagine that Aunt Gu would dare to take her army like this.

misappropriated the money without consent, but now it is good for Chen Wenli.

Just ask about the money, what part of it was earned by Aunt Gu herself.

She's a white wolf in an empty glove.

This trick is ruthless.

These days, Aunt Gu's movements have been in the palm of her hand, but she didn't expect her panic and mistakes to come up with, just waiting for this day, waiting for her to ask her about her guilt.

It's really full and idle, and there's nothing to do.

Since Chen Wenli is willing to give her face, then she will give her a few more points.

"Since Aunt Gu is running around for something like this for the master, she is also scared today. I think Aunt Gu's account is doing well, so I might as well leave the matter of purchasing clothes in the house to you." ”

Aunt Gu originally made Dou Shi eat a big deflate, and she was excited in her heart, but this time Dou suddenly smashed such a big cake for her, and she was a little hungry for a while.

"This, is this sister really not working?"

You must know that this Prime Minister's Mansion, whether it is the master of the subordinates, adds up to hundreds of people.

In addition, the seasons, curtains, clothes, quilts and other daily fabrics are a lot.

And this item can be compared with the oil and water in the big kitchen.

If she had such an errand, she would really have to laugh when she fell asleep.

But this Dou family has always liked to grasp all the housekeeping in her hands, and put a big piece of meat in her mouth in front of her, why does she always feel that there is fraud in it.

But no matter how deceitful it is, the temptation is also very strong.

After all, there is also the silver of a hundred flowers.

Now the eldest young master Chen Hui is studying in the clan, and in order to take the exam next year, he is now looking for a famous teacher.

There is also the third young lady Chen Lu, who still lacks a few bright clothes and jewelry, and she will have to settle down in the next two years.

There are also new clothes in the present tense, and there is no movement in the house.

All of this requires money, and it needs power.

Chen Wenli thinks this is a good thing: "What are you still doing in a daze, your sister is busy with all the affairs in the house, and she is also very busy." Now the second girl is going to get married again, she can't be busy with those things, just right, you also deal with these things, and go back and take the third girl to learn, after all, she will marry someone else to be the housewife in the future. She also has to learn these affairs in the house. ”

The words have come to this, although Aunt Gu is skeptical, she still nods yes.

She also specially thanked Dou Shi.

Dou grabbed the handle of the chair, but did not get up to help her.

Just when Chen Wenli was a little embarrassed, someone outside spread it.

"Sir, an adult has come to visit."

Normally, those who are in charge of outside affairs don't run in and say in a hurry like this.

The identity must not be underestimated, so Chen Wenli did not stay longer in the Dou family, and went out after tidying up his clothes.

There were people who cleared the scene for him, so none of the people watching the excitement outside could block his way.

Chen Wenli, the only one who could speak to her, left, but Aunt Gu was still kneeling on the ground.

The door that was opened outside was closed again, but it was enough for the other subordinates to see clearly, and Aunt Gu knelt in front of her Dou in embarrassment.

Dou was in a good mood, she didn't let Aunt Gu get up, just knocked on the handle of the chair again and again.

The voice was low, a bit like the sound of a door slamming.

"You've safely passed the trick this time, but if you use these tricks next time, I'm not welcome. The two thousand taels of silver I will take as feeding the dogs. ”

Aunt Gu's kneeling feet were sore, but she still didn't admit it with a smile on her face: "Sister, what are you talking about as women, what are you talking about, it's not the future of the master, but also the future of the children." In order to make the master's official road easier, I let my mother's family run away, if you can't let my sister say hello, then I'm really a little chilled. ”

Aunt Gu's family is poor, and she only got up at home after following Chen Wenli.

Those brothers have such a sister, they are really licking and sticking to her, and they do everything for her on weekdays.

It's the Dou family, who has only one elder brother in his mother's family, but he was an official outside in his early years, and he rarely writes letters, and he doesn't move around much, so his feelings are also weak.

Dou had the intention to move around for his brother and let him come to Beijing as an official, but his brother always refused to let him.

Dou Shi listened to Aunt Gu's words, and his heart was also depressed: "Come on, I already know how good you are." But things are one yard at a time, if it is the matter of purchasing clothes arranged for you, you are secretly getting tired, you are waiting for me to peel off a layer of skin for you. ”

"Sister, can I get up now?"

Dou Shi smiled slightly: "You get up." Just now, Chen Yao and Chen Lu's two children were still standing outside the door, and their faces were frightened, you have to talk to them when you go back. ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Gu's face was bad again.

And Chen Wenli, who was greeting guests outside at this moment, did not look much better after hearing the intention of the visitor.

The person who came was Zhao Yan, the right prime minister, and he suddenly came without the slightest greeting.

He also carried a few packets of candied fruit in his hand: "A little gift, I heard that there are many children in the house, and it is not bad to make snacks for them on weekdays." ”

Chen Wenli didn't react to what Zhao Yan said before: "Lord Zhao is saying that I just saw the little girl in Long'an Temple and picked up one of her Jinpa?" ”

"Yes, although Ling Qianjin ran fast, I still learned from the monks in the temple that it was the young lady in Prime Minister Zuo's mansion."

For a while, Chen Wenli really didn't know what this Zhao Yan wanted.

As the right prime minister, it is impossible for him not to know that his daughter has been given to Li Cong, the king of Wu.

This Zhao Yan is older than Li Cong, the king of Wu, and his fate is not much better, a thirty-year-old widower.

Now he claims to have taken Chen Si's Jinpa.

What does he want to do?
