Chapter 62: Reckoning

In order to show respect and trust for Li Juren, the old lady specially instructed that if Li Juren wanted to use silver, the account office would only give it, and there was no need to report it again, but it must be registered.

After such a long time, the old lady has never asked, and now that the person is leaving, it is natural to check the accounts well.

Although it is said that he came to the Hou Mansion and did things for the Hou Mansion, and it was also appropriate to take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation, but if this Li Juren was too disproportionate and spent too much money, then they would not recognize it.

These have to be recovered from Li Juren!

The old lady's thoughts, Jiang Fuyue could see it very clearly, and she chuckled twice meaninglessly.

The maid came and went in a hurry, and after a while she came back with the ledger in hand.

The ledger isn't that thick, it looks like it's almost two fingers thick.

The old lady nodded secretly, and said in her heart that this Li Juren is still very acquainted.

The old lady took the ledger and turned directly to the last page, and her brows furrowed tightly the moment she saw the numbers clearly.

"After only staying in our Hou Mansion for so much time, it actually cost hundreds of taels?!" The old lady lost her voice, "What did he buy?!" ”

The maid pounced on her knees on the ground, her voice trembling slightly because she was nervous: "Back to the old lady's words!" Lifting people, lifting people just came to the wine in their hands, almost every day to send people out to buy, and only drink expensive wine, so ......"

The maid knelt on the ground, secretly crying bitter in her heart.

Li Juren asks people to go out to buy wine, it is not good or bad, only about the expensive and the cheap, not expensive wine does not drink, and is very picky.

However, the subordinates of the Hou Mansion are not Li Juren's subordinates after all, and they still have to think about the Hou Mansion when they do things, so they don't dare to buy too expensive wine at all, they only dare to buy those that are not up to the price.

The old lady was irritable, and picked up the ledger and flipped through it twice.

Take a closer look, not only wine, but also a lot of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but compared to wine, it is nothing.

Anyway, all of these things add up, and there are enough seven or eight hundred taels of silver.

Seven or eight hundred taels!

The old lady only felt that her heart was dripping blood.

"Fuyue," the old lady said subconsciously, "This matter will be handled by you, and you must let this Li Juren take all the money-"

Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by Jiang Fuyue's direct words: "Mother-in-law forgives sin, daughter-in-law can't afford such a heavy responsibility." ”

The old lady frowned, and Jiang Fuyue continued: "This Li Juren was originally brought by his mother-in-law, how to deal with him, how can it be his daughter-in-law's turn to intervene."

The daughter-in-law only has respect for her mother-in-law in her heart, and she does not dare to do such an arrogant and disrespectful thing, so she asks her mother-in-law to forgive her. ”

Although the old lady did not finish speaking, the meaning was already very clear.

This kind of thing that hurts others and is not beneficial to herself, she will only take it on herself if she is stupid.

Hearing this, the old lady's face suddenly became complicated.

Jiang Fuyue's words...... It seems like a good word, but why does it always sound weird?

But it was indeed her who called the shots and invited Li Juren over.

At the beginning, Jiang Fuyue even stopped her, and wanted to come forward to find it herself, but she refused.

And if Jiang Fuyue is really allowed to deal with Li Juren, isn't it equivalent to telling the people of this Hou Mansion that Jiang Fuyue is the real master of this Hou Mansion?

The old lady gritted her teeth, and her eyes fell on Li Juren, who was like a puddle of mud, slumped on the chair at the door, and hated to exchange his skin for silver.

"Someone!" The old lady slapped on the table, "Fetch a basin of cold water and make Li Juren sober!" ”

This is a wretch, she can't bear anything!

At this time, Liu's mother came back with the decanting soup, and she was shocked when she heard this.

She didn't even have time to put down the sobering soup in her hand, so she hurriedly walked over and said in a low voice: "Old lady, no! Li Juren is also a gentleman invited by our Hou Mansion, how can we ......?"

If you let outsiders know that the Hou Mansion is so kind to the reader, I am afraid that I will be poked to death by the pen!

"What's not to do!" The old lady gritted her teeth and said, "I'll look at today's matter, who dares to spread it!" ”

As she spoke, the old lady's eyes full of anger and majesty slowly scanned the hall, and the people knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.

"Old lady, even if the subordinates don't say it, but Li Juren has suffered such a big grievance, can he bear not to say it!" Liu's mother was so anxious that she stomped her feet.

The old lady was afraid that she would be soft-hearted, so she simply didn't pay much attention to Mo Xiangju, but Mother Liu knew who this Li Juren was, usually the subordinates in Mo Xiangju were a little negligent, even if they were just walking a little louder, it would cause a reprimand, if he was really poured cold water, it would be good if he didn't make the Hou Mansion jump up and down!

"He? He didn't dare even more! The old lady sneered, "If he dares to say it, I will let everyone outside know that this Li Juren is a person who sells fame and fame and only loves money!" ”

Scholars value reputation the most, and the old lady took the lifeblood of Li Juren at this time.

Liu's mother didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, a maid came back with a basin of cold water, and poured her head on Li Juren.

Now that it is autumn, it is still warm under the sun, but there is already a trace of coolness in the house, and being splashed with such a basin of cold water, Li Juren suddenly sat up with a spirit.

His face was still a little dull, as if he didn't even know how he had come to be.

"Li Juren," the old lady said coldly, "What a big pomp and circumstance to lift people!" In just two or three months of work in our Hou Mansion, it took a full seven or eight hundred taels?! ”

Li Juren reacted, and his face changed slightly.

He only knew that the Hou Mansion had everything he wanted from him, but he didn't know that the Hou Mansion had also kept accounts!

If he had known, he would never have been so indulgent!

Seeing that Li Juren was silent, the old lady continued to ask: "Could it be that Li Juren thinks that he is worthy of such a big show?!" ”

It's just a mere person, coming out of that poor and remote place, and being able to come to their Hou Mansion is all burning incense in the last life! But this Li Juren is so ignorant, he spends nearly a thousand taels of silver in one flower!

That's enough for her to give herself a face!

The more the old lady thought about it, the more distressed she became, and her eyes became more and more fierce.

What she said was really ugly, and Li Juren's face couldn't help but look a little ugly.

Not long ago, he was still a distinguished guest held high by the Hou Mansion, but now, he is being pointed at his nose and scolded.

This kind of gap is really unacceptable in Li Juren's heart.

He stood up suddenly, and all the water accumulated on his body suddenly burst out, and Gu Feng, who was a little closer, suffered, and his face was stained with water.
