Chapter 154 Human Words Are Terrifying

The old lady was extremely angry at Zheng's actions of guarding and stealing and eating inside and out, and canceled her housekeeper rights on the spot, and instead ordered Xiao Zheng to take over all the keys and account books of the treasury.

However, under the anger, the old lady still retained the necessary reason - the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and the mistakes committed by the Zheng family were indeed very big, but the old lady did not want to make this matter all over the city and everyone knew about it.

After all, the Zheng family may be shameless, and their Wang family's hundreds of years of reputation still want it.

Therefore, the investigation of the whole matter was carried out completely secretly. Xiao Zheng also understood what the old lady meant, and specially gave a gag order to all the girls who were on an errand in the treasury that day, and said that if anyone spread the matter, then don't blame her for using family law.

Everyone listened to Xiao Zheng's words, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly said, 'Don't dare, don't dare'. There is no other reason, the family law in Xiao Zheng's mouth is not the family law of the Wang family, but the family law of her Xiao Zheng family, someone in the third room has seen it with their own eyes, Xiao Zheng's family law has been implemented in public, it was a little girl who stole her jewelry, and was beaten to death by her, and the body was rolled up with a broken mat and thrown to the barren mountain outside the city, and finally was bitten to pieces by wild dogs.

Tsk, when they thought of the tragic situation of the little girl who died without a corpse, everyone shuddered, and no one dared to challenge Xiao Zheng's patience.

"Old lady Qiyu, my daughter-in-law has verified that the things in the warehouse are completely consistent with the account books, and they are not bad," Xiao Zheng took the thick account book and said with a solemn face, "However, nearly seventy percent of the things in it have been replaced——"

"Bang"

The old lady was holding the Buddha beads in her hand, and after hearing Xiao Zheng's reply, she was angry in her heart, and slapped the Buddha beads on the table hard, and said, "Seventy percent? Hmph, our eldest lady is really a character, she has only been in charge for 20 years, and she has emptied the treasury of our Wang family. Someone, call me the eldest master, I have something to ask him"

"The sister-in-law was confused and did something wrong for a while, but the eldest man may not know," Xiao Zheng saw that the old lady was trembling with anger, hurriedly put down the account book, hurriedly walked to the old lady's side, and kept comforting, "...... The matter of the treasury, the third master and his daughter-in-law will definitely visit, it is best to find the things back, even if they are lost, they are not worth anything, you must not be angry. ”

Xiao Zheng's mouth attributed all the wrong things to the eldest lady, but he knew very well in his heart that he secretly exchanged the treasure in the treasury for the real one, such a big thing, it was impossible for the eldest master not to know about it. Perhaps, this plan to hollow out the Wang family was discussed by the two of them.

Hmph, that's a good calculation.

Xiao Zheng was originally an extremely smart person, but now that there is so much evidence in front of him, what kind of calculation did Wang Mingchuan and his family make, can she still guess it?

According to the old lady's physical condition, it is estimated that the old man will live for more than ten or twenty years, as long as the old lady lives for a day, the Wang family cannot be separated.

They have few people in three rooms, the cost is low, and the old lady rewards them from time to time, so whether they are separated or not has little impact on them.

But the big house is different, three sons, four daughters, and a number of grandchildren, just to prepare the silver for these children and grandchildren, it is a lot of money.

In addition to the large number of people, there is also the big man, who is not a capable person. You must know that the Wang family is originally a big family, and the degree of food and clothing has exceeded that of many ordinary rich families, and Wang Mingchuan is even more of a gentleman, there is no serious errand, but he likes to kick some rare things the most, and what is the more expensive he plays, there are so many people who need to be fed, and there is a loser master, how can it be enough to rely on only a few dozen taels of silver per month?

The eldest lady happened to be a housekeeper, and she was in charge of the purchase of the warehouse and kitchen, although the errand in the kitchen was later snatched away by Xiao Zheng's family, but there was still the big head of the warehouse.

Think about it and know that one end is your own home that urgently needs money, and the other end is all kinds of jewelry and antiques in the public middle school that you can see and can't take, and it's strange if the eldest lady can't afford to be crooked.

What's more, it's not the first time she has done this kind of thing, she made a lot of money on Wang Qifang back then, tasted the sweetness, and had a relationship channel in her hand, and it is not difficult for the Zheng family to repeat her old skills and prepare to hollow out the Wang family.

There is another important reason why the eldest couple did this, that is, even if the old lady is not good, she will divide the family property before she dies. And everyone in the Wang family knows that the old lady is partial to her young son, and when she divides the family property, she will definitely give the third master an extra share openly and secretly. In this way, it will inevitably damage the interests of the eldest master.

In order to get more property back, the eldest couple took advantage of the eldest wife's housekeeper to quietly transfer the treasures in the treasury, and then imitated some fake ones and brought them back, without any flaws in the accounts, even if they checked the accounts afterwards, they could not find out.

And those fakes, also imitated extremely exquisitely, unless there are professionals to identify, ordinary people only think of the treasures left by the ancestors, even if the family property is divided in the future, these fakes will be properly stored in the warehouse. If no one deliberately debunks it, it is estimated that no one will doubt the authenticity of these things.

It can be said that Zheng's whole plan is perfect, almost seamless. If it weren't for Wu Niang deliberately revealing it to Twelve Niang, and Twelve Niang ran to see the dowry, the people of the Wang family would never have dreamed that the treasures they sent to guard firmly were all Xibei goods.

Wait, Wu Niang? How did Wu Niang know?

Xiao Zheng thought of this, and his brows furrowed slightly. To tell the truth, what Wu Niang said to Twelve Niang about going as a dowry in order to buy medicinal materials for Aunt Li, Xiao Zheng didn't believe half a word, hum, what is the relationship between Wu Niang and Aunt Li, she knows better than anyone else.

In Xiao Zheng's opinion, the person in the world who wants Aunt Li to die the most is probably Wu Niang, how could she be willing to use her dowry to renew the life of the 'enemy'?

"What's the matter, did you find anything bad again?"

The old lady easily calmed the anger in her chest, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Xiao Zheng's frowning slightly, and mistakenly thought that Xiao Zheng had discovered that Zheng had done ugly things, and she didn't know how to return to her for a while.

"No," Xiao Zheng straightened out his mind and said with a smile, "The matter of the treasury can be revealed, thanks to Wu Niang's reminder." The daughter-in-law thought that it had been two years since Wu Niang came back, but she had been living in the yard of her second sister-in-law aggrieved, and she was thinking about whether to change the yard for Wu Niang. ”

"Wu Niang's reminder? What does she have to do with this? ”

The old lady frowned, then wrinkled her brows, and thought to herself, "Ah, Wu Niang exposed the eldest lady?" Is there anything hidden between them?

It's not that the old man is suspicious, it's really that the women who live in the big family are not simple people. Especially the eldest wife has just happened in the family, and then, Xiao Zheng said that this matter is related to Wu Niang, but Wu Niang is a person in the second room, Li has always been good friends with the Zheng family, is there a deal between them, stealing the baby, the second room is probably also ......

There must be something related to this, and she had to guard against it, "Go, call Wu Niang, I have something to ask her." ”

"Yes, old lady"

What Xiao Zheng wants is this sentence, the Wang family has a total of three sons, the big house has fallen, and the second room has also been involved, and in the end, there are only three of them left?

"Old lady, the eldest lord is here for you"

"Well, I'm a little uncomfortable at this moment, let him wait outside the door"

The old lady thought that her treasure had been deceived by this unfilial son, and she was annoyed for a while, and after hearing the little girl's confession, she said coldly with a calm face.

After listening to the little girl's relay, Wang Mingchuan knew that the old lady was really angry, so she knelt at the door honestly, waited for the old lady to be angry, and then entered the door to greet her and apologize.

The elders of the Wang family made a fuss about the Zheng family's affairs, but Wang Qifang, as the chief director and planner of the whole scene, was sitting leisurely in the main house of the Xiyuan Garden, around the hot charcoal stove, talking and laughing with Mama Zhao and Ziyuan.

"Qi Niang, don't you know, after the old lady heard that Zheng really took away most of the treasures in the treasury with a fake and messy, she threw a white porcelain tea cup full of hot tea on Zheng's body on the spot, and said that Zheng was not filial, and finally asked her to go to the small Buddha hall in the backyard of Songhe Garden to think about it."

Mama Zhao was roasting her hands while talking about it with great interest, and when she talked about the latest situation of the Zheng family, she was so happy that she almost burst into tears.

"Hehe, it's just her own doing," Wang Qifang heard that Zheng was locked up by the old lady, her face was also full of smiles, she rubbed her cold hands, and said: "However, with the old lady's temper, she must have folded her arms and covered them in her sleeves, and she will never shake out Zheng's ugly things and save people from laughing." ”

"You guessed it right, the old lady has given a death order, and no one is allowed to leak this matter, otherwise she will be severely punished."

Qingyu came in from the outside with a cold body, cautiously closed the door, leaned around the fire, and whispered back.

"This can't be done, people outside don't know the true face of the Zheng family, aren't my preparations in vain?" Wang Qifang was surprised at all when she heard this, she snorted coldly, the corners of her mouth hooked a beautiful arc, and said: "Mama Zhao, if you do this thing, no matter what method you use, it will definitely let the whole city know what the Zheng family has done, and I also want the Zheng family to taste the taste of 'human words are terrible'."

"What Qi Niang said is that the Zheng family has always liked to pretend in front of people, and back then, he even teamed up with the old bald donkey of Jin Guang to slander you as a 'broom star', and your mother is a brother, which is why Qi Niang is not liked by the old lady, and you are even more alienated by the old man."

As soon as Mama Zhao mentioned the incident back then, the smile on her face suddenly retracted, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Qi Niang, let's just get that old bald donkey over this time, so that we can torture it, if we can get the evidence of his collusion with the Zheng family, it is the best, if we can't get it, we will ......"

P: Eh, update the late bird, forgive me
