Chapter 33 Zhang's audit turmoil

Little Peach and Bunting gossip is full of enthusiasm and gossip about recent news, since Mrs. Chun, who is pregnant with her grandson, personally visited Qingfeng Ju, all kinds of mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law, and little maids always visit Qingfeng Ju under various excuses to please the four masters and servants in Qingfeng Ju.

Even the "dim sum" incident in Zhangfu was interpreted as a big wife and a girl bullying her aunt's wife, and Dan Hong was speechless; There is also the Chunxing incident, which portrays the eldest lady as a heinous and evil woman......

Yiqing's medicine plan was shelved by Chunjiang's cousin, and it was the idle hair, so he and the two maids were all kinds of Dongjia every day: "Tell me, what is the eldest lady trying to do this?" ”

"I'm bored, I won't have to find something for my aunt to do with her." The answer was a small bunting.

"Stupid!" Xiao Taohong said with disdain: "The eldest lady is in charge of the perfume business, and she deals with valuable guests, where is she free?" ”

"Clever!" Yiqing approving, encouraging Little Peach to continue.

Yilan was silent, serving tea and pouring water for a few little sisters.

"Sister, don't be busy, come and tell me what you think!" The little bunting began to pull the line, "We'll clean it up in a moment." ”

Yilan rolled his eyes: "You better stop and take care of yourself!" Then, go ahead and get busy with yourself.

Xiao Taohong said: "Sister Yilan, and your gossip, do you want to hear it?" ”

"Got my gossip?! I haven't even been talking to you much lately, let alone other outsiders, so I can still provoke right and wrong?! Yilan said in amazement.

The other two were also surprised, and Xiao Bunting said: "The eldest lady is beautiful, and some rumors are not unexpected." ”

"No, no, no, it's not a rumor, but the little third son who guards the second gate of our house personally confirmed it, otherwise I wouldn't have mentioned this matter to you." Little Peach said seriously.

"Okay, just listen to our little pink sister's report from the front!" The gossip of the people around him, everyone's curiosity soared!

"Ahem, let me organize the language", Xiao Taohong's current speaking habits are deeply influenced by Yiqing, and some trendy words pop up from time to time, and everyone is no longer surprised.

Xiao Taohong said: "Our subordinates who have a little power in the Zhang Mansion are also very rich, and the housekeeper of the treasury is one of them." Since Miss Da's invention was robbed of by the eldest lady to do business, they have made a windfall. The third son is a dog-legged, and he is responsible for pulling guests into the mansion from outside to buy perfume, and the income does not go into the accounts of the Zhang Mansion......"

"Hurry up, get to the point!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Good...... The third son brought a guest to the house to buy things as usual one day, and the guest was so strange that he would rather not have his own expensive perfume to steal a look at our eldest lady, and finally he had to say that it was his cousin's woman, do you think this is gossip? Little RosΓ© said.

Several people's faces changed, and even Xiao Taohong reacted after speaking, and said, "Xiao Sanzi said, that guest seems to be surnamed Sun?!" ”

Yilan frowned, and said with hatred in his mouth: "Sure enough, I still found it, a group of beasts!" ”

Yi Qing held Yi Lan's hand and instructed the maids: "You inform Cousin Chunjiang that Miss Yun Fei's face needs to be reviewed, please ask Grandma Yuan to come over to the house!" ”

……

The main hall of the Zhang Mansion.

Inside and outside Zhang's mansion, there was a room full of housekeepers, men, mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law, etc., waiting for the housekeeper to ask.

The green mountains, the green rivers and the green clouds look at the nose and stand at the front.

Chunjiang and his wife sat in the main hall, Danhong served tea, and Chunjiang's daughter-in-law seemed to drink tea, but in fact looked nervously at the account book in the master's hand.

Since that day, Chunjiang and his wife quarreled, Chunjiang's daughter-in-law finally understood that her man was really good, and Chunjiang's cousin finally understood the anxiety of an old and decrepit woman, and the two sat on the floor of the study and complained to each other.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law bluntly said that the subordinates of Zhang's mansion did not respect her, and it was really difficult for people to vacate a shop for Mrs. Chun to make pastries, and she was short of funds recently. Chunjiang's daughter-in-law said that she would wait for the funds to be returned, and immediately buy a new store for Mrs. Chun.

Mrs. Chun wants to open a shop, of course Chunjiang's daughter-in-law is willing, anyway, the power is in her own hands, and Mrs. Chun can embezzle the small money on the account at most.

But here's the thing: there isn't enough money.

Before the perfume and soap business started, Zhang's house was actually an empty shell: there were many shops and more people to feed, and Chunjiang's daughter-in-law learned from other wives to let go of loan sharks. There are losses and profits in the business, and in the end, they are not profitable, and some of the profits are deducted and cannot be taken out.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law was nervous, she just wanted to wait for the funds to be returned and then open a shop for Mrs. Chun, but she didn't expect Chunjiang's cousin to be furious, "Perfume profits, how can you lose money", "What about the profits handed over to you by Qingshan's shop......"

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law was very annoyed, she knew that she had squeezed some money out, but now it's good - Chunjiang's cousin is going to check the accounts.

Chunjiang's cousin said: "Butler, you follow the usual way of taking care of it, one shop after another, and one steward in the inner room starts to reconcile the accounts." ”

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law's eyelids jumped, and the teacup in her hand was almost unstable.

"Yes, sir." The housekeeper secretly glanced at Chunjiang's daughter-in-law.

……

"Zhang Qinghua, you have lost one hundred and two bottles of perfume this month? That's enough to catch up with the income of two shops in the western suburbs for a quarter. And this soap, what's going on with this loss report? The soap won't be broken......" asked the housekeeper, Zhang Qinghua was the housekeeper of the eldest lady's perfume shop.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law looked at Zhang Qinghua dumbfounded, thinking that the old lady didn't dare to do this, your guts are very fat!

"I haven't done anything this month, I've stepped on the fragrant pancreas and wrestled and smashed the perfume bottle." The butler told a bad joke, but no one laughed. The people of Zhangfu used to call the soap fragrant pancreas.

Zhang Qinghua sweated like rain, but he couldn't defend himself, so he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy again and again: "Master, wife, my mother is seriously ill, I am a lard blindfolded, you spare me!" ”

The housekeeper looked at Zhang Qinghua and forced a string of subordinates to come out.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law sighed in her heart and said, "Master, don't be angry about these slaves, now that you find out, just let them spit it out, let's end it today, right?" "Don't dare to check it again!

"People write it down for me, and I'll deal with it later. Butler, you continue to ask about his house, and this account is still not right. Cousin Chunjiang ignored his mother-in-law and only asked the housekeeper to continue to verify the account books.

The old lady in the embroidery room said: "The eldest lady withdrew three thousand taels of silver a year ago, saying that it was the fabric money for the New Year's clothes. ”

"This 5,000 taels was also mentioned by the eldest wife, saying that it was a congratulatory gift for Mrs. Weichun to enter the door." It was a dogleg next to the eldest lady who spoke.

"This Eight Thousand ......"

"The eldest lady said this is ......"

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law had a red face, and there were two big moths in the end, and she was one of them!

Chunjiang's cousin's nose was crooked, and he kindly helped his mother-in-law to do justice, but he didn't think about it, but he was a thief shouting to catch a thief.

Seeing this, the housekeeper hurriedly took all the account books and rosters, and said, "Zhang Qinghua will be locked up first, and let his mother-in-law come to ransom people, otherwise he will be escorted to the official mansion!" Others, go home to find their own mothers and explain the problem clearly! Small problems are not to blame in the past, big problems come to explain to me in person, once it is found that someone deliberately conceals or hides private interests, it will be handed over to the government and will not be forgiven! ”

The housekeeper drove everyone away like a chicken, and looked at the three brothers of the "green" generation who were stupid, and said in a low voice: "Hurry up!" ”

The room was full of people just now, and it was empty in an instant, and Cousin Chunjiang's face was black and red, thinking that he was uncomfortable to sit on, squatting on the Taishi chair and smoking dry cigarettes.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law sneered: "Master, I didn't spend this money indiscriminately, I took it out to pay interest, you also saw it, I didn't use black money in my house to make up for myself." ”

Cousin Chunjiang didn't speak, and continued to squat and smoke.

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law continued to flatter: "Master, I don't want to embarrass Chunni, this really has no spare money, besides, she has a big belly, I can't provoke anyone?" I only messed with you that day, but I didn't embarrass her......"

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law saw that her man still didn't speak, panicked, and hurriedly said: "You speak, so many people heard this just now, you have to explain it to them!" ”

"Explain what? You are the head of the house, the master spends money, where is the qualification of the servant to inquire! Cousin Chunjiang asked rhetorically.

"Isn't it a shame for me to say this?" Chunjiang's daughter-in-law said embarrassedly.

Cousin Chunjiang snorted coldly and said, "You still know how to have a face?!" Do you have a face? Hanging your big gold chain and big gold bracelet all day long, don't you get tired?! Do you know what other wives say about you? Dandelion! ”

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law felt humiliated and embarrassed, and said, "I was matched with Mrs. Qin's help, and she said that I was so good-looking......"

"I beg you to have less dealings with her! A feather duster, a dandelion, how many do she wear, how many do you wear? Cousin Chunjiang pointed at his mother-in-law and scolded, "You don't know what you are?" Just this brain, you still learn to let people make money? Do you know how to put it? ”

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law secretly looked at her man's face and said, "Qin...... Madame said he had a way......"

"Okay, I don't want to ask this Mrs. Qin, I'll just ask you, are you the mistress of the Zhang Mansion? Our Zhang family is to cure diseases and save people, what is your loan shark? Oh, yes, you have been wealthy since you were a child, you just look at our house, how many half-grown children are sold by human teeth! Cousin Chunjiang exclaimed angrily: "That usury forced people to sell their sons and daughters, cut off their hands and feet, can you say it yourself that our Zhang family can do this?!" ”

Chunjiang's daughter-in-law still wanted to be hard-mouthed, but Chunjiang's cousin directly interrupted her mother-in-law's defense and said, "I don't want to listen to your defense, in the future, all the chores in Zhang's mansion will be handed over to Qingshan to take care of!" ”

"But Qingshan is just your godson, and besides, how old is he now, the affairs of the Zhang Mansion are not playful, why don't I help him do it?" Chunjiang's daughter-in-law retreated to the next best.

Cousin Chunjiang said: "If you are safe, you are still the eldest lady of the Zhang Mansion, otherwise you will let Xian!" ”
