Chapter 39: Caught off guard

Chen calculated carefully, thinking that his good popularity in the past had played a role, so that the mother-in-law and stewards inside and outside the house had surrendered, so he hurriedly collected a basket of evidence of the uneven accounts of the eldest lady when she was governing the family and piled it up in front of the old lady, wanting to sue the concubine for personal gain and use the public bank in the house to lend money.

Through the Xuan window, Bai Jing saw that she had brought dozens of experienced daughters-in-law into the Han Yu Hall, and her heart was not good, and it was useless to help if she had the heart to help.

She simply got up and went over, but saw that the flower hall was crowded with people brought by the Chen family, and the old lady was already supported by Mama Su.

Under the corridor, Bai Jing was blessed and said, "Grandmother." ”

The old lady smiled and bowed her head, since Shen Rui personally came to the door to ask for her son at the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, she has become more and more loving to her eldest granddaughter, and often takes her by her side to teach, thinking that in the future she can be a virtuous helper to her grandson.

"Your second aunt has something important to look for me, so I brought these people here, and the commotion is tight, so you can go back first."

Bai Jinghao also thought so, and politely retired.

As soon as she got out of the courtyard, she saw Qin Rou leading four or five henchmen over, so she had to avoid the side and salute respectfully.

Qin Rou didn't have time to take care of her at this time, but she happily let her get up and leave.

Nuan Yue said softly: "Miss, look at the battle between the two ladies, something has to happen." ”

Bai Jinghao turned to her, suddenly raised his hand and stroked his left wrist, and said softly: "I just took off the bracelet on my hand when I was practicing calligraphy in my grandmother's house, and I forgot to take it when I came out, you can go in and retrieve it for me." ”

The warm moon should be.

"There aren't many things in my courtyard, so you don't have to rush back, you stay and talk to the little sisters in the past."

Nuan Yue's eyebrows jumped, and she raised her eyes with some fear.

Not long ago, she said in the old lady's courtyard that she missed the news that the young master admired the eldest lady, and the master was called by the old lady for questioning for this matter.

"You Bingxue is smart, your grandmother gave you to me, then your future life and death will be with me. You are clever and capable, I take you with me in and out, can you understand the deep meaning? Bai Jinghao deliberately added the word capable again.

Nuan Yue paused slightly, as if she was hesitant, but quickly nodded: "The slave understands what Miss means." ”

Bai Jing smiled with satisfaction and left slowly.

After returning to Pin Meixuan, she and Qiao's mother sighed: "The second aunt is too calm, and I don't want to think about how many years the eldest lady has been in charge of the house, but she just touched the pair of cards in the house, so she rushed to re-establish her authority." I have long reminded her that with the ability of the eldest lady, it must be strange for her to find out that there is a problem with the accounts so easily, and it is better for her to lead people to find the old lady with great momentum. ”

"Miss is saying that the second lady can't help but make a move?" Joe's mother was surprised.

Bai Jing said "um", drank the tea in her hand and continued: "She just led people into the Hanyu Hall with her front foot, and the eldest lady arrived with the stewards on the back foot, obviously prepared, I think the second lady's trip is not easy." ”

The second lady was a little anxious to do things, but it was also because she was worried that the hard-won right to feed would be lost again. Since the eldest lady came back from the Hou Mansion, the lord has treated her as before, can the second lady not be in a hurry? ”

Bai Jinghao said: "As respectful as before, it's not a sentiment. ”

"As the housewife of the house, it is already remarkable to have the respect of the master. The old man is heavy-faced, even if he spoils Aunt Yu like this at home, but he is also close to the reputation of the eldest lady outside, and no matter how much he likes it, there is no rumor that he spoils his concubine and destroys his wife, which shows that he is measured. In the end, these two ladies are from Xifu, if she doesn't think of a way, the lord will return the power to the eldest lady sooner or later. ”

Even so, the second aunt was a little naΓ―ve. What is the identity of the eldest lady, the daughter of the Marquis of Zongyu, the sister of the crown princess, and she is full of planning for Bai Jinyao's important affairs of the royal daughter-in-law, she has always been meticulous in her work, even if she really lends money outside, can she find out the evidence in three or two days? ”

Seeing that the other party's face was full of anger towards Chen, Qiao's mother asked, "Then the young lady wants to help the second lady?" ”

"Help her?"

Bai Jinghao asked rhetorically: "I'm a junior, how can I interfere in the affairs of the two of them?" It has to be dealt with by the old lady to be considered appropriate. ”

"But according to the old lady's temper, you have to look at the face of the Qin family and deal with things."

"The concubine is against her, the second lady's trick doesn't need the eldest lady to show the face of the Qin family, and it can be dealt with easily."

Bai Jinghao had already had a premonition of the situation, thought about it, and still called in the external audience.

"What do you command?"

"You go to the Honghu Pavilion in the front yard, quietly find a new peach, and tell her that the time has come."

Er Kite has recently reprimanded Qiao's mother many times, and she has been pressed by the warm moon everywhere, she knows more about the rules, and she doesn't ask about the inside story when she hears the words, so she nods and goes out.

Qiao's mother was a little regretful, and said with a long sigh: "This move was originally intended for the second young master, but now it is released, but it is a pity." ”

"With the ability of the second lady, she can't fight the Qin family. If the Qin family doesn't make a mistake at this time, even if the old lady wants to balance the inner house, there is no reason not to return the right to feed to her. ”

Bai Jing analyzed the situation and understood: "If this family still lets the eldest lady cover the sky with one hand, she will have time to deal with me again, it is better to let her not be able to take a break from these things." ”

"The eldest young master hasn't married yet, even if it makes trouble with the old lady, the end of Xintao won't be better."

Bai Jing winked her eyes, "This is her own choice, if I hadn't met her by chance that day, she would have made a fuss in the mansion a long time ago, I just chose a good opportunity for her." ”

She got up after her words fell, "I think I have to sing for a long time in this scene, I'm tired of practicing calligraphy, take a nap, and wake me up when the warm moon comes back." ”

Qiao's mother should be, and waited for her to go to the inner room to rest.

Nuan Yue came back after two hours, and went into the house to report the situation: "The second lady took the accounts and the confessions of the shop stewards and said that the eldest lady embezzled the public bank for profit, and the old lady was very angry, but who knew that the eldest lady turned against the army, saying that these were all false certificates made by the second lady in order to control the family power, and deliberately bought the false certificate made by the steward to frame her, and the daughters-in-law who originally went to Hanyutang with the second old lady also changed their words on the spot, and they all echoed the eldest lady and admitted ......it."

The expected scene, Chen's rash advance, was planted in Qin Rou's hands after all.

Bai Jinghao sat on the couch with Su Xiuhongmei's kapok pillow, opened her eyes and asked casually: "The second lady failed to frame her, but fell into a crime of framing the eldest lady, the old lady must be angry, but what to do?" ”

When this kind of thing happened, the old lady was of course angry, and took back the second lady's brand on the spot. The eldest lady presented two century-old ginseng plants, saying that she had specially returned to the Hou Mansion a while ago to let the Marquis of Qin spend a lot of money to find them, and to make amends to the old lady. ”

Bai Jing muttered, "She's smart." Later, did the old lady return the pair of cards to the eldest lady? ”

"I heard that I originally planned to return it, but at this time, the new peach in the eldest young master's house ran in." When she said this, Nuan Yue sighed and looked out of the door.

Bai Jing responded: "I remember that this new peach is the eldest girl in the Honghu Pavilion, and she and her sister Zhu Tao have served the eldest young master for many years, and they often go into the inner courtyard to walk around. ”

"It's this new peach, she stumbled in covered in blood, begging the old lady to save her life......"

Bai Jinghao asked knowingly: "She is the son of a family, and she is valued by the eldest young master, and she is decent, why is this?" ”

Xin Tao said that he had the flesh and blood of the eldest young master, and he didn't dare to think about it when he knew that his fate was thin, and he was willing to obediently drink medicine to beat the child, and he only begged the eldest lady to spare her life, and asked her not to sell her to the Qinglou like she did with Zhu Tao, and she would be humiliated and die if she was worse than dead. Xin Tao said that if she wants to die, she will die in an innocent place, and she can't let her father and mother suffer the pain of losing her daughter for the second time and be poked in the backbone for a lifetime. ”

The father and mother of the bamboo peach and new peach sisters are the old servants in the house, and they used to listen to the old lady's outer study, although they are not the most shameful, but they are diligent and diligent, and the old lady is very impressed.

She has a smooth husband and wife in her life, a peaceful house, and is very generous to her subordinates. After listening to Xintao's crying, I saw that she was bleeding half of her body in her courtyard, which was shocking, and she was annoyed when she was on an errand, and asked her eldest daughter-in-law with a calm face.

Qin Rou was inexplicably reprimanded, seeing that the pair of cards that were about to arrive was so missed, and when she walked out of the Hanyu Hall, her steps were empty, and the people next to her asked: "When did this little hoof of Xintao have a body, and when did I let someone send her medicine?" ”
