Master Du has been running Hengfeng for so many years, and he is not that confused person, seeing this scene in front of him, and then thinking of what the steward said, he only felt cold in his heart.

Seeing this, Du Zhenghong knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly knelt down and moved a few steps forward, "Father, these goods are all due to the mismanagement of the son, beg the father to give the son another chance, the son will be able to manage Hengfeng Bank well, these shortages, the son will make up for them!" ”

In fact, in his heart, Master Du didn't want his son to have a chance, but looking at the surplus goods in front of him, he only felt that his eyelids jumped.

Do you really want to give him another chance? These goods don't seem to be much, and if he can make up for them with his own money, he may be able to recoup his mistakes.

"Father." Just when Master Du's heart was shaken, Du Wei's crisp female voice sounded on the side.

Du Zhenghong looked up at his little sister, only to see her smiling, cherry lips lightly opened, but like that evil ghost, she spit out words that were enough to make him invincible.

"Only a small part of the accounts of Toyosu City have been burned, and most of the inventory has been collected by the eldest brother, and now they are all placed in my yard."

The corners of Du Zhenghong's mouth twitched a few times subconsciously.

After Du Wei said this, she stood there quietly, as if waiting for Master Du to finally make an idea.

She didn't urge, she didn't agitate, as if everything was just going with the flow, but in Du Zhenghong's opinion, it seemed to hurt more than directly slashing his heart with a knife.

No one pushed him, he jumped into the pit by himself, no one wanted to harm him, he wanted to harm people first and then first.

Whoever kills, he will always kill him.

It's all his own cleverness.

Master Du stood up, flicked his sleeves, didn't even look at Du Zhenghong, and said to Du Wei: "I'll go back with your unsuccessful third brother first, and I'll hand it over to you here." ”

Du Wei gave a salute, her face was neither humble nor arrogant, but Master Du turned sideways and avoided her salute.

The big and small stewards of Hengfeng Xing, when they heard this, they understood in their hearts that the eldest young master was not there, and in the future, the eldest lady in front of him would be able to say it.

Du Zhenghong staggered and followed Master Du away.

"I'm afraid that the third young master will kneel in the ancestral hall when he goes back." Someone at the bottom said.

"That's still light ......"

"Shhh

"The eldest young master is auspicious, and he will be fine."

Listening to the discussion of the guys below, Du Wei sighed.

What auspicious people are in the sky, I am afraid that the way of this world is that the wicked are rampant and the traitors are in charge.

Du Wei didn't leave Hengfeng Xing in a hurry, she first started to deal with some simple daily affairs, and called a few stewards to ask them one by one, and the stewards admired this eldest lady very much, so they didn't have much effort to deal with the things in the store, but before she could take a breath and take a rest, the steward in the house came again.

"Is there any news from the government?" Du Wei asked.

"I heard what the head of the Yi Ban said, the government has already determined that the eldest young master has fornicated with the thief and tied up the female dependents of Cong Mansion, and now he has gone to the sea to catch the official document, and Zhang Bang is going around to track down the thief."

"Do you see that list? Is there a portrait of a thief? ”

"Yes, yes." The steward took out a scroll of paper from his bosom, "This was taken down from the city gate by the unpreparedness." ”

Du Wei stretched out her hand to take the list and sighed, "I'm sorry for you." ”

The chief steward of the house smiled bitterly: "The eldest young master is the most upright, and those of us who are subordinates don't want to see him suffer, we all hope that he can get rid of the lawsuit as soon as possible, which can be regarded as a little effort." ”

Du Wei opened the list and saw a frontal portrait of a man painted on it.

Although this kind of ancient person like Du Wei really didn't dare to compliment, the words on the list were clearly written and unambiguous: the criminal Wu Long, known as a good gentleman in the rivers and lakes, kidnapped a woman from a good family...... is heinous, a reward of 1,000 taels of silver, and he will be arrested.

Wu Long?

Du Wei was blindfolded all of a sudden, why did this guy get involved with this?

Recalling that day on the dock, there were so many secret guards in the cabin at that time, this guy was able to escape alive, it must have been a bit of real effort.

Du Wei stared at Bangwen for a long time, but suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated sentence.

"Last night, you said that the third young master left early in Cong Mansion, what kind of old friend did you go to meet?"

"Yes, that's what the little guy next to the third young master said at that time." The steward is in the right way.

"When did he go back last night?"

"The third young master did not go back to the house for the night, but came back after dawn."

"So he just got back to my yard and asked for the account book." Du Wei muttered, as if there was a cloud of doubt in her eyes that could not be dissolved.

"Miss, if there is anything you tell you to do, go down and do it." The steward looked at her expectantly, and through these days, he also saw that the only person in the mansion who could rescue the eldest young master was presumably the eldest lady.

"You go and find out who the old friend that the third young master met yesterday is, and where he spent the night." Du Wei commanded.

"Yes." The steward quickly went out to run errands.

Du Wei sat in a daze again, but Linglong stood aside but nodded sleepily.

"Let's go back." Neither of them had much time to rest yesterday, and she wanted to go back and take a nap before the steward could find out what was going on.

After taking the carriage, Du Wei took Linglong to Du's mansion.

When the carriage arrived at an intersection, the body suddenly became unstable, and Du Wei and Linglong were almost shaken down.

Outside, the groom's scolding sounded as if someone had almost startled the horse.

Linglong lifted the curtain of the carriage, and saw a boy of five or six years old curled up beside the carriage, wearing coarse linen clothes, with a panicked look on his face.

The groom scolded angrily: "If you don't want to die, stay away!" Did you hit the car or not? ”

The child saw Du Wei behind the raised car curtain at a glance, and immediately shouted, "Are you Sister Du Wei?" ”

Du Wei was stunned, she didn't remember knowing such a child in Liangzhou City.

Linglong said disdainfully: "It must be here to beg for money." ”

Du Wei didn't think so, she nodded and called the child to the carriage, "Who are you?" ”

The child smiled, "Great, you are really Sister Du Wei, a beautiful brother told me that as long as I find you, you will give me five taels of silver." ”

Hearing this, Du Wei was even more like falling into a fog.

What beautiful brother? Why do you have to give him five taels of silver?

"The beautiful brother was injured, he said that he knew where the person Sister Du Wei was looking for was, and said that if you don't go to see him, you won't be able to see him tomorrow." The child learned the appearance of an adult at a glance, but the more Du Wei listened, the more frightened she became.

She wanted to find the missing Lu Xiwen, but she didn't get any news in front of her, just sending the official mansion to the made her anxious, relying on those people in the Du Mansion to find out the news, the efficiency was too low, but she couldn't reveal her identity openly.

At this time, she deeply realized that only with power in hand can everything go smoothly, even if she is still like this, if she is replaced by ordinary people, I am afraid that she can only wait for death in prison.

"Where's the pretty brother you're talking about? Can you take me to him? Du Wei asked.

The child nodded.

Du Wei glanced at Linglong, and Linglong carried the child into the carriage with her hands and feet.

The carriage turned around and headed for the remote slum north of the city......
