Jia Min was crooked reading on the chaise longue by the window, Chunlan and Xia He were discussing the tricks in a whisper, when Qiu Ju walked in, holding the key to the small treasury in her hand. Glancing at Jia Min's location, she walked straight to Jia Min, "Girl, you didn't find the bronze carved mirror slave you said, are you mistaken?" ”

Jia Min didn't give her a look and continued to read her book. After a long time, she put down the book and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, Qiu Ju thought that she was tired of reading and would not answer herself, Jia Min suddenly said: "Although I am not very smart, I am not a fool, I don't know everything about my own things, but I still know some important things." "The bronze carved mirror was a birthday gift given to her by the county lord of Jiayue when she was eight years old. Copper is rare, this mirror is something from a small country called Daxia in the Western Regions, the lord of Jiayue is the pearl of the eldest princess, born on the same day, the same month and the same day in the same year, the two have been playing together since childhood, needless to say, deep feelings.

In the last life, after Jiayue learned of her death, she traveled thousands of miles to Yangzhou to mourn, and gave Daiyu a jade pendant, so that she could go to her if she had something. During Daiyu's years in Rongguo Mansion in the capital, the county lord of Jiayue gave Daiyu a New Year's gift every year, and Daiyu also gave a gift on her birthday, and she also sent people to pick up Daiyu many times, but Daiyu didn't know it. The gift was naturally given by Mrs. Wang, and the county lord's people were also sent by Mrs. Wang on the grounds of physical discomfort and other reasons.

Jia Min opened her eyes and wanted to see how Qiu Ju reacted. Seeing Qiu Ju's eyes fluttering, he raised his hand and touched his nose, "Maybe it's been a long time, and the girl's things are too much, maybe it's in that corner." "Looking at her appearance, Jia Min still has something unclear. She grew up with gold and dignity, and she didn't care much about her own things before, and she also had great trust in Qiu Ju and others, so she gave these girls a chance to take advantage of, and she never paid attention to what was missing. I have let Mrs. Wang get so many good things, and there is no one more stupid than herself.

This bronze carved mirror finally appeared in a pawnshop under the name of the county lord of Jiayue. The shopkeeper of the pawnshop recognized it and sent it to the county lord of Jiayue. The county lord of Jiayue sent someone to check, and only then did he know the true situation of Daiyu in the Rongguo Mansion. wants to be the master of Daiyu, but he has no position, and he offended Concubine Xiande's maiden family. She sent someone to pick up Daiyu again, wanting to recognize Daiyu as a righteous daughter so that she could raise her by her side. However, Jia's mother did everything possible to stop her, and she didn't even let people see her once.

It turned out that Qiu Ju had already had a different heart at this time, she thought that Qiu Ju was safe and cautious, so she asked her to manage the accounts and the warehouse, but she didn't expect it...... Except for Dongmei, the other three big girls were all given by Jia's mother, how loyal are they to themselves? Originally, her nurse loved her very much, and taught her to see people's hearts clearly, and treated the four big girls very harshly. However, two years ago, her nurse suddenly got a bad illness and disappeared, and now that I think about it, there must be something strange about it.

"Go down and make a new register of the things in the storehouse, and in three days I will check the storehouse myself." Jia Min closed his eyes again, and then spoke again, "Xia He also went to sort out my makeup, and I checked it three days later." ”

Xia He and Qiu Ju were suddenly shocked, and the two looked at each other, not knowing what to do. Chunlan looked at the expressions of the two, thought about it, put down the needle and thread in her hand, walked inside and took a thin blanket out, and gently covered Jia Min, "Why does the girl suddenly want to check the accounts?" ”

Jia Min opened her eyes and glanced at her, continued to close her eyes, she turned over and said softly: "Seeing that I am about to get married, my wife also let me learn to be a housekeeper before!" Then he said no more, but fell asleep after a while.

The three big girls all frowned and pondered, and after a long time, the three of them went out of the door hand in hand, and walked to a secluded and uninhabited place in the courtyard. Xia He was the first to say: "How is this good! Why does the girl have to check the accounts? ”

"What's the hurry? What's the use of being in a hurry? Chunlan is the oldest and the most scheming, she always looks honest in front of Jia Min, otherwise in her previous life, Jia Min would not have taken the initiative to choose her to make room for Lin Ruhai.

"You don't have to worry, everything is out of our hands, so naturally it doesn't involve you. But you also get this benefit, and none of us can run away! Qiu Ju said coldly.

"Don't accuse me yet, but tell me where you got that mirror?" Chunlan glared at Qiu Ju, her eyes were very sharp.

"How do I know why the girl suddenly wants that mirror? That mirror was no longer in our room two years ago. ”

"Who did you give it to, or did you use it yourself, or did you already use it?" Xia He hurriedly grabbed Qiu Ju's hand and asked.

Qiu Ju broke away from Xia He's hand, turned her back and bowed her head silently. This made Chunlan and Xia He both anxious, and she had to ask clearly.

Qiu Ju couldn't only say: "I...... I gave the second master ......" After speaking, he was very embarrassed, so he covered his face and squatted down, not daring to see anyone.

When Chunlan heard this, she sighed, but fortunately she didn't leave the house. So he pulled Qiu Ju up again, "At this time, I know that I am ashamed, what did I do earlier?" Don't hurry up and find the second master. ”

"Looking for the second master? Can I ever come back? Qiu Ju was a little reluctant.

Xia He was annoyed when he heard this, "The trouble you caused, you don't want to be peaceful, who do you expect to give you peace?" If you hadn't complained and took the girl's things to seduce the second master, how could there be today's affairs? ”

"Who are you scolding, when I don't know your dirty thoughts, you have lost your soul since you met Aunt Lin, and you call your aunt's name in your dreams at night. and Chunlan, how much work has been done in private, when no one knows that it was secretly done for Aunt Lin, our girl is kind-hearted, and if you change your master, you will all be betrayed! ”

Chunlan saw that Qiu Ju was annoyed and said something that shouldn't have been said, and hurriedly wanted to cover her mouth, but she was still a step too late, making Qiu Ju shout. She hurriedly looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, she slapped Qiu Ju hard, "You don't want to live, don't come to bother us!" ”

Qiu Ju looked at Chunlan in disbelief and said, "You dare to beat me?" What are you going to do to hit me? I'm going to go to the girl to confess my guilt, it's a big deal. But if I tell the girl that you are already the eldest girl of the Wang family, and the eldest girl of the Wang family can poison our girl, it is all your help, I see that the girl will spare you, I am afraid that the girl is willing to let you go, and the lord will also need your life! "I'm leaving.

Chunlan hurriedly stepped forward to stop Qiu Ju, "Good sister, don't do this thankless thing." My sister did it just now, but I wasn't afraid that the wall would be listened to? ”

At this time, Xia Hefang woke up from the shock, pulled Chunlan and asked, "Chunlan, how can you help outsiders to frame the girl, are you crazy?" ”

Chunlan patted Xia He's arm soothingly, "What outsiders?" That is the future second grandmother, with the current power of their Wang family, as well as the wife's preference for the second master, she will be designated as the grandmother in this house in the future. That is, the old lady of the Wang family passed away, and the eldest girl Wang had to keep filial piety, otherwise she would have been a righteous second grandmother! ”

"You're confused! You are going to follow the girl to the Lin Mansion to marry, what good will it do you to please Miss Wang? Xia He said.

Chunlan didn't answer her immediately, but took a handkerchief to help Qiu Ju, who was crying alone, wipe her tears, and then sighed again: "Don't you know, I know better than anyone else, and I also know that according to the girl's temper, if I know that I have taken refuge in Miss Wang, I will have no way to live." But we are all born in a family, and the life and death of a large family are in the hands of the master, I went to the Lin Mansion with the girl to be clean, but my family, I can't ignore them! What's more, isn't the girl okay now, Miss Wang said that she wouldn't take the girl's life, so I dared to help her, otherwise I wouldn't dare to respond. ”

Xia He lowered his head and was silent when he heard this, and Qiu Ju also stopped sobbing and looked at Chunlan thoughtfully. Chunlan saw that the two of them had calmed down, so she spoke again: "Now, it's important to hurry up and discuss a countermeasure, three days later, what does the girl find out, what can we say?" Over the years, we have taken the girl's things to supplement the family, to do favors, the girl is the smartest person, she must have noticed something, otherwise she would not suddenly have to check the accounts. ”

"What my sister said is that we have taken a lot of things over the years, and it is roughly estimated that there will be 20,000 taels of silver. Let's not talk about the silver, those things that are still in their hands should be returned first! Qiu Ju is colorful.

Xia He said with a sad face: "Originally, in order not to be recognized, a lot of jewelry was dismantled, or rebuilt or directly dissolved into gold and silver. ”

Chunlan and Qiu Ju don't know where, but now this situation really makes them don't know what to do! The three of them frowned, but they didn't know that their conversation had already been heard clearly by the people hiding in the trees.
