123 Fattening and slaughtering
Mama Wei once said that in the face of a cunning enemy, you must see the road under your feet clearly, and then wait for the opportunity to move, and see the opportunity to catch him off guard, so that you can hit with one blow.
Rong Zhao also spotted the weakness of the rabbit's greed, and then quietly fattened it. When you want to eat it, you slaughter it.
Gao is the rabbit she fattened, and now it's harvest time.
Let her eat enough first, and then let her vomit it all later.
With such a big temptation in front of him, Gao was hesitant at first. Her silver and the silver in the Hou Mansion added up to not that much, but the difference was not much, and it was 30,000 taels less if you calculated it. But the 30,000 taels also made it difficult for her, and she really couldn't find where to make up for the 30,000 taels.
However, as Rong Zhao expected, she really started Rong Han's dowry. Thinking that he would be able to return on the fourth day of junior high anyway, and he would only get married on the fifth day of junior high school, he had time to do so, so he agreed to this matter after a few thoughts.
Wealth is in danger, don't take risks, how to be rich.
She thought about her wealth, but she never expected that on the fourth day of the junior high school, the silver released could not be recovered. I sent someone to look for it for a whole day, but the people had already gone to the empty building and disappeared.
The 120,000 taels of silver in the house and the 30,000 taels of Rong Han's dowry were all gone from her hands, and she was completely stupid for a while, sitting on the chair for a long time.
It's just that Rong Zhao didn't give her time to find a way to make up for the money, and asked Mrs. Rong to look at the dowry again before Rong Han got married, so as not to make a mistake tomorrow.
It doesn't matter if this is a glance, Gao's private misappropriation of the public school has been completely leaked.
The exposed filling is like a thread that cracks the mouth of the clothes, and when you pull it gently, the opening becomes bigger and bigger. Marquis Rong interrogated overnight and interrogated all the people around the Gao family.
These minions were also useless, and after just a few punishments, they recruited everything. spit out all the things that the Gao family has put in the seal in the past few years, and even said that she deducted the moon silver.
It's just that Mama Fang's mouth is very hard and she doesn't spit out a word.
The candle burned slowly, reflecting a dim yellow color on everyone's face, but Gao was indeed pale.
She knelt in the middle of the hall, her jewels no longer able to hide her haggard and hopeless countenance. The deep fat powder was washed away by tears, leaving two lines of marks that were not light or light.
Next to it was a large box, open, and inside was the bill she had put the seal in before.
This is the first time she has knelt in front of everyone since she married into the Ronghou Mansion, as if she was being judged by everyone, which deeply stimulated her strong self-esteem, and there was a faint disbelief on her face.
The place where she knelt was very close to Rong Zhao, almost parallel, Rong Zhao gently scraped the edge of the tea cup, and there was a happy sneer on his lips.
In the middle of the lobby sat Old Lady Rong, holding a crane-headed cane, her face was heavy, and she glared at the Gao family angrily, quite dignified, "They have already confessed everything you have done, what else do you have to say!"
Gao lifted his eyelids, and a wisp of disdain appeared in the corners of his eyes, "Since I did it, I'm not afraid to admit it." That's right, it was me who embezzled the money from the public school to put the seal. ”
Her disdain stems from her disdain for Mrs. Rong's background and house-filling, but she forgets that she is also a house-filler.
"But I've never been greedy, at best I've borrowed it for the better. "Gao did something wrong without knowing it, but felt that he was justified.
She didn't put it in her purse, she had already returned it when she ran out. It's just that this time she looked away, and she didn't expect to be swept away with all the money.
Lin saw that Gao had planted a big heel this time, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and if he couldn't control it anymore, he would laugh out loud.
She raised the corners of her eyes, glanced at Gao's family, and sneered: "Sister-in-law's words are really wonderful, can a temporary loan be perfunctory? Sister-in-law, you are really, why don't you call us if there is such a good thing, everyone earns money together, and you are not afraid to support yourself if you eat alone." ”
Gao Shi glared at her fiercely, she put her hands on her chest, pretending to be frightened, "What is my sister-in-law looking at me with such eyes, I am telling the truth." We live a tight life with so little moon silver a month, you are good, take the silver in the public and put seals everywhere to make money, and stuff your purse into a bulging bag. I'm afraid you've eaten too much of your purse and it's popping up. I'm afraid that the broken silver that fell out of the fingers would be enough for us for a few months. ”
She pulled in the direction of Gao's family, "Sister-in-law, you tell your younger siblings how much silver you have earned? ”
Second Master Rong pulled her and frowned, "Drinking tea can't stop your mouth." ”
Lin Shi was not convinced, and snorted lightly, "Give me some meat to eat and you can block it." ”
Compared with Lin's grasp, the third lady was very quiet, just sitting quietly, not squeaking, just glancing at Gao from time to time, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Marquis Rong was stuffy in his chest, sitting beside Mrs. Rong, his deep eyes kept staring at Gao, and his eyebrows twisted into a river.
Gao Shi felt his sharp gaze, raised his head to meet him, and he spoke.
"I trust you, and I never ask for money in the public, but only give you full responsibility. I didn't expect to raise your guts, and you would dare to do even heavy profits. Last time, I haven't settled with you about shoddy, mixed eyes, and discredited the store, but this time you actually moved the money from the house, you really disappointed me more and more, disappointed!"
Marquis Rong's voice was mixed with uncontrollable anger, like a volcano erupting in his throat, as if he could press down the mountain at any time and sink the river.
Gao Shi had a fear in his heart, his cheeks twitched, and his strong attitude softened, "Master Hou, the concubine didn't expect things to develop to this point, I didn't expect that person to run away with money." This money not only has the money of the Marquis Rong and the dowry of Rong Han, but also the money of the concubine, and the concubine was also deceived. ”
She swept around everyone's faces and said, "Do you think it's easy to take care of a Hou Mansion? Where do you not need money up and down? This lady wants to pay silver today, and that aunt wants to ask for a doctor tomorrow." Bird's nest should be the best blood bird's nest, abalone should be double-headed, and even the tea leaves should be first-class. You want to be happy, but you don't want to think about whether the expenses in the house can be afforded. ”
The more she talked, the more she felt aggrieved, although she was kneeling, she raised her face high, and her momentum did not reduce the demeanor of the housewife at all, "In the past few years, the silver in the house has been more and less in and out, and how many empty houses have been renting land in various places, a few young masters marrying relatives is a sum of silver, and a few young ladies marrying are a sum of silver, and seven seven or eight is a lot of expenses." If I hadn't let the money out, and the money would have made a profit, would you have thought you would be able to eat the best blood swallows and double-headed abalone?"
