Chapter 31: Whoever Uses It Pays
Mama Wang hesitated and stood outside the bead curtain for a moment, but still tentatively said.
"Grandpa Guo, madam, the eldest lady sent the best ambergris."
Yue Shi was taken aback, "What, the best ambergris?" ”
An Guogong, who was still cursing angrily one second, sat up directly with his body supported in the next second.
"Quick, get in!"
Mama Wang sent things in, and as the wooden box opened, An Guogong let out an exaggerated exclamation.
"Ambergris in such good condition must be worth a lot of money!"
"Indeed."
Rao is Yue clan hated An Yueli, and he had to admit that this box of ambergris was extremely precious.
"It's just that An Yueli suddenly became generous and willing to give us such a good thing?"
An Guogong waved his hand, "She is my daughter, and it is right to honor the elders, not to mention that I was injured because of her." Mama Wang, quickly burn some for me, and take half of it and send it to Dr. Li for medicinal purposes. ”
"Yes."
Seeing that the other party was so excited, Yue Shi felt faintly uneasy but did not dare to speak out.
Just when An Guogong lay down again and looked forward to the medicinal effect of ambergris, there was another announcement from Yahuan outside.
"Sir, madam, the manager of the account room asks to see me."
Steward Sun is a confidant selected from distant relatives after the Yue family took the throne, and he has been holding the accounts for her over the years, which is very effective.
Hearing that it was Steward Sun who asked to see him, the Yue family only thought that the other party was here to report on the affairs of the house, and did not take it to heart.
"Let him come in and talk back."
A moment later, Sun Guan came in a hurry, and before he had time to salute, he first said through the beaded curtain.
"Madam, the people from Shanzhitang came to the door with the bill and asked us to pay five hundred taels of silver! The villain didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he could only come and ask his wife for ideas. ”
Yue Shi was carefully stuffing a pillow for An Guogong, and when he heard that his strength was not well controlled, he directly pressed the other party and screamed.
At this time, the Yue family couldn't take care of An Guogong, and asked Sun Steward in shock.
"What did you say!?"
"Shanzhitang said that the eldest lady bought two boxes of top-grade ambergris from them today, and it cost a total of five hundred taels, so let's pay the silver as soon as possible."
Yue screamed, "Why should she let us give money when she buys something?" ”
Even An Guogong couldn't sit still, and jumped out of bed in pain.
"Is she crazy? To buy such an expensive thing, it is still the silver in the house! Who gave her guts!? ”
Steward Sun lowered his head and didn't dare to speak, and handed the bill to the Yue clan in a trembling manner.
Just seeing the amount stamped on it made her dizzy.
"It's impossible to give money, this is something An Yueli bought, and it has nothing to do with our house. You go and tell the people of Shanzhitang that they have the ability to go to the Xiao Wangfu to ask for money. ”
An Guogong echoed in a rough voice, "Yes, I won't give a penny, let them not come to entangle!" ”
Steward Sun replied with a sad face when he heard this, "The villain said so at the beginning. But the people from Shanzhitang said that the eldest lady brought things back to the Anguo Mansion, so she should ask us for silver. He also said that if he didn't give it, he would go to the official yamen to sue us. ”
"Bastard!" An Guogong was so angry that he jumped to his feet, "They obviously didn't dare to go to King Xiao's Mansion, so they bit us to death." Where is An Yueli, you go to her and ask for silver! ”
Steward Sun took people to Beiyuan to ask for an explanation, and happened to see Fuyan and Caiyun serving Mrs. Jiang with medicine.
After listening to Steward Sun's request, An Yueli was not surprised, and asked Huansha while wiping Mrs. Jiang's mouth without delay.
"What did you tell your father?"
"Princess Qiyu, the slave maid just truthfully reported to the grandfather and Mrs. Yue, this ambergris was bought by the princess to supplement the body of the elders, but it was not said that the princess bought it out of her own pocket."
An Yueli raised her eyebrows at the other party, "Heard?" ”
Steward Sun only felt that his head was big, "But Grandpa Guo said that the princess should not pay for things in the palace, and asked the princess to pay for it herself." ”
"Huansha, what was your father's reaction when you delivered the things?"
Grandpa Guo was very happy at that time, and praised the princess for her filial piety. The slave saw it with her own eyes, and Grandpa Guo asked someone to send a part of ambergris to the medicine on the spot, and he was very satisfied with the quality of ambergris. ”
"That's right. I bought things for my father and mother, and I didn't use them, so why should I pay for them?
Besides, Mrs. Yue said that the daughter who married out spilled the water. Since I am not from the Guogong Mansion, why should I pay for the Guogong Mansion? ”
"Princess, but after all, you bought this thing, and Mrs. Jiang also used it."
Hearing this, An Yueli stood up and walked in front of Steward Sun step by step.
The other party was photographed by her momentum, and froze in place in a cold sweat.
"The king, the princess?"
"Are you mocking my mother for not being a member of the Anguo Mansion? Even Prince Xiao has to call my mother a mother-in-law, and you dare to be rude to her.
The Yue clan borrowed a few guts from you and let you come to Beiyuan to be presumptuous! ”
Even An Guogong has been beaten so far that he has not recovered, where did Steward Sun dare to touch the long-cherished mold, and immediately knelt down in fright.
"The princess is angry, the villain has no such intention!"
An Yueli leaned over slightly and slowed down her speech.
"Then you go back and tell Mrs. Yue, in fact, I didn't deliberately purchase such valuable medicinal materials. It's just that the ambergris in the warehouse has not been replenished, but the medicine of my father and mother cannot be broken.
Mrs. Yue is in charge of the family hard, if she has limited energy and can't do everything, I don't mind managing it on her behalf. ”
Steward Sun returned with a feather, and originally relayed An Yueli's words to the two of them.
Yue almost tore a fine handkerchief, and the skin on his face wrinkled with rage.
"She's threatening me!"
An Guogong pounded his chest and gasped, "Okay, she is An Yueli, she actually calculated on my head." She is not filial to her mother, she wants to ask for medicine for Jiang Qinglan. Well, return everything she sent.
Whoever uses it pays, in short, I won't give a single penny! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Mama Wang entered the door with the boiled decoction.
"Mrs. Qiyu, the medicine for the old man is ready. The doctor mixed a small amount of ambergris into the prescription, which will definitely relieve the old man's mood. ”
“……”
There was an awkward silence in the room.
Yue Shi quietly glanced at An Guogong's face, which turned from white to red and then to blue, trembling and not daring to say more. It wasn't until Mama Wang noticed that the atmosphere was wrong and whispered to ask what was going on, that the other party completely broke out.
"Bastard thing, bastard thing! Notify it, and you will not be allowed to accept anything sent by Beiyuan in the future. And you! ”
In a fit of rage, An Guogong simply pointed the finger at the Yue family.
"If you hadn't deliberately deducted Jiang Qinglan's share, how could you have made so many troubles. I've been straightening you for so many years, and I still can't get rid of my little family spirit! ”
An Yurou happened to hear this sentence when she came to ask for peace, and broke into the bedroom directly despite the obstruction of her subordinates.
"How can a father humiliate a mother like this?"
"Yurou, why are you here?" Yue Shi found that the other party had broken in, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Your father is still sick, don't make noise." ”
At the same time, An Guogong also asked angrily: "Is there any rule for forcibly breaking into the parents' main house without passing the word?" Get the hell out of here! ”
