After Chen Shaokang's solemn warning, Zhao Ma and Bai He knew the seriousness of the matter.

Mother Zhao hurriedly said, "Old lady, second master, don't worry, we have always been the henchmen in the old lady's room, we know very well what to say and what not to say." ”

The old lady nodded.

Although Zhao's mother doesn't have enough brains, she is indeed loyal.

Not to mention Bai He, she grew up beside her since she was a child, and recently she has been tired of being with Steward Qin.

"Wait," the old lady suddenly thought, "Steward Qin should also know about this matter." ”

"Bai He, you go and call Steward Qin, and by the way, ask him to bring the account book ......"

She wanted to look at the money in the account and think of a way to save her eldest son.

"Mother, we just received such a letter, and we can't be sure that it must be the eldest brother, maybe it's a trick to take advantage of the opportunity to bring down our Chen Mansion?" Chen Shaokang persuaded.

"No," the old lady shook her head, "it is undoubtedly your eldest brother's handwriting." ”

"Mother, handwriting is something that can be imitated."

"Maybe the handwriting can be imitated, but the tone will never be, the words and tone on this letter are undoubtedly An'er's!"

Seeing her mother very emotional when she talked about her eldest brother, it was obvious that the fact that the eldest brother would push them to death when he was alive did not make her mother jealous, she was still bent on saving people from the kidnappers.

Chen Shaokang's expression gradually darkened.

Soon, Steward Qin came to the old lady panting with the account book in his hand.

Along the way, Bai He had quietly told Steward Qin that the uncle was kidnapped but not dead.

Steward Qin, who would do this, was full of shock.

The old lady handed him the letter first, and then let out a long sigh.

"How much money do you have in the account?"

Steward Qin, who used to be excited when he heard about money, also had to cry at this time.

"Old lady, the rent collected from Zhuangzi some time ago has been used for the uncle's funeral, and the business of other shops has not been good recently, and the income is not much......

"Where did all the money go before that?" Chen Shaokang asked.

"The cost of the uncle's marriage to the princess, and the cost of building the Tingfeng Courtyard......" Steward Qin counted them one by one.

The more Chen Shaokang listened, the darker his face became, did the money of the Chen Mansion be spent on the eldest brother?

For a moment, he thought, anyway, the nominal eldest brother is dead, so it is better to save the 300,000 taels!

Didn't he say that Zhou Yao was unwilling to save him?

He's doing it on his own!

However, he also just thinks about it.

Because the eldest brother and third brother are the mother's favorites, she will never give up on the two of them!

The eldest brother inherited his mother's beauty, and the third brother inherited his father's intelligence.

The old lady looked through the account book in disbelief, and the more she looked, the more her head was torn and painful.

At this point, she didn't have any ideas.

subconsciously looked up to ask Wen's mother for advice, but Wen's mother was not there.

Only then did she remember that Mother Wen hadn't come to her for a few days, and she looked at Mother Zhao dissatisfied, "What's going on with Mother Wen?" ”

Zhao's mother said, "Wen's mother has been going back and forth, and she is always unwell. ”

"She's a lonely old woman, but she's weaker than me, an old woman dragging a family......" The old lady stroked her forehead.

Seeing that the old lady had lost patience with Mother Wen, Mother Zhao was overjoyed.

If Mother Wen is so sick for a few more days, her rights will be all hers immediately.

Bai He glanced at Zhao's mother quietly, and still had insight into Zhao's mother's careful thinking.

It is impossible for the Zhao family's mother and daughter to frame themselves so easily.

She superficially obeyed Zhao's mother's discipline and treated her respectfully, but in fact it was just to confuse her.

Now that she knows that the uncle is not dead, the mind of Biyu to climb the bed will definitely not die, and she secretly swears that she will not let their mother and daughter have a wish.

At this time, Steward Qin said, "Old lady, do we want to discuss this matter with the princess?" ”

"Nope."

This time, without Chen Shaokang's refusal, the old lady shook her head first.

"Zhou Yao just came to make trouble the day before yesterday, and the princess was already very disappointed in An'er, if she knew that An'er was cheated to death at the instigation of Zhou Yao, then the princess would definitely leave the house."

"It's second that she's gone, in case she tells the Queen Mother about it......"

After listening to the old lady's inference, everyone had already foreseen the ending, and it was still a death.

"Old lady, maybe we don't tell the princess about the uncle, just talk about borrowing money from the princess?" Zhao's mother suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

The old lady glanced at Mother Zhao, "Your idea is not bad." ”

She just needs to think of a reasonable reason to use the money, and turn it over to Su Nianyun.

Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to go to Su Nianyun immediately to ask for money, but it was too late at night.

At this time, going to the door to borrow money eagerly will definitely arouse suspicion, so you can only wait until dawn to go.

Thinking about how to talk to Su Nianyun, the old lady tossed and turned on the bed at night, and she fell asleep at dawn.

I don't want to sleep and open my eyes again, it's already three poles a day.

"Mother, how is your health?" Chen Shaokang and Steward Qin were waiting outside early.

"I'm fine, let's go, let's go listen to the wind courtyard ......"

The group went to Tingfeng Courtyard, and Chunhua said, "Old lady, the princess has entered the palace." ”

Mother Zhao asked suspiciously, "Didn't the princess enter the palace yesterday, why did she enter the palace again today?" ”

Chunhua sighed, "The Queen Mother was in a bad mood because of the horse, so the princess specially went into the palace to accompany the Queen Mother......"

"I don't know if the old lady and the second master came to find the princess at this time, but what important thing happened?"

"It's nothing, let's wait until the princess returns!"

The old lady then turned around and left, and the moment she turned around, her back was visibly rickety.

This month, she is really getting haggard day by day.

While returning to the hospital, he instructed Chen Shaokang, "Kang'er, you go to a few uncles and uncles......

The robbers gave three days, and today the princess is in the palace, which is a waste.

The old lady has been in charge of the house for so long, and she also knows how to prepare for everything.

So she asked her second son to go to the elders of the Chen clan to see who might come up with the money just in case.

Chen Shaokang walked out of the house.

It's just that he didn't listen to his mother to find those uncles in the clan, but went directly to the Qinglou.

His thoughts have not changed as last night, only when the eldest brother is gone, his mother will look at him a little, he can hold a funeral for the eldest brother sincerely, but he can't welcome the eldest brother back with real affection.

When he entered the Qinglou, the fragrance of flowers and beauties hit, and he immediately forgot anything.

And the main owner, Su Nianyun, actually didn't enter the palace, but went to the medicinal herb shop.

She didn't have anything special to do, just to avoid the old lady and make her slow and anxious without borrowing money.

Not long after I entered the back hall of the herb shop, I heard movement outside.

Seeing that it was Xiao Han, the guard beside Xiao Changfeng, she immediately dodged and hid behind the curtain.

"Little brother, where is the little medicine boy here, why can't you see him?"

Fugui said, "A few days ago, his family wrote a letter saying that his mother was sick and asked him to go home to serve the sick. ”

"It's sick, so coincidentally?"

"Qiao?" Fugui raised his head, "This guest, are you gloating?" Someone's mother is sick, what are you called Qiao? ”

"Sorry man, I didn't mean that, so can I ask your shopkeeper here?"

"The shopkeeper also has something, if you have something, just talk about it, and I am also half a little doctor if you want to catch medicine."

"Uh, this ...... All right! Xiao Han touched his nose and had to leave.

The little medicine boy had no clues, and he didn't know how to investigate it for a while

It seems that you can only ask Imperial Doctor Shen.

Counting, at this time, it was time for the imperial doctor to leave the palace, and he hurriedly drove the carriage to pick up people.

"Princess, who is he and why are you hiding from him?"

Mama Liu, who had been silent, was standing behind Su Nianyun at this time.

"The guards beside Xiao Changfeng, Xiao Han!"

"Is that him?"

"Mama knows him?"

Mama Liu shook her head, "I don't know, but I've heard that he is the most effective guard by Xiao Hou's side." ”

"No wonder," Su Nianyun said, "he's very observant. ”

That day, she followed Imperial Doctor Shen into the carriage and walked a long way, and when she turned around, she found that this person was staring at their carriage, and she felt that this person was not simple.

She touched the necklace around her neck, fortunately, she had told her everything in advance.

Anyone who came to look for this little medicine boy said that they had gone home to take care of their mother!
