A few days later, Yueyun investigated the relationship between the four people in the mansion.

Two of these four people were the original old men, and only Mrs. Jiang and Steward Xia were promoted by Mrs. Xia later.

Steward Xia is a house slave, his mother-in-law is the old lady's yard miscellaneous mother-in-law, Jiang Pozi is a kitchen cook, good at flattery, was promoted by Mrs. to buy, his own man is a small pipe in one of Mrs. Manor, these two are the most suspicious.

After roughly understanding the details of the two, Xiahou Shuang remained silent and waited for Wang Chong's news.

Wang Chong didn't let him wait any longer, and a day later, he asked people to report that he wanted to see something, and Xiahou Shuang let people spread it.

After Wang rushed to Biluoxuan, he informed Xiahou Shuang of the results of the investigation in the past few days.

According to this Wang Chong, only what happened in Mrs. Jiang's house in the past few days is suspicious.

Mrs. Jiang is on an errand in the house, and her own man works in the lady's village, although it is not a rich family, but he does not worry about eating and drinking, but the only son in the family is a person who is addicted to gambling.

As the saying goes, nine out of ten gambles are lost, and the Jiang family is often blocked by debt collection, but in the past few days, the eldest son of the Jiang family has not only paid off all the gambling funds, but also made a generous move when he went to the gambling house.

After hearing this, Xiahou Shuang already knew in her heart, it seemed that this Jiang Pozi was the troublemaker, thinking of this, she said to Wang Chong: "I already know the result of the matter, and I have worked hard to protect the king in the past few days." ”

Wang Chong didn't dare to take credit, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Don't dare." ”

Xiahou Shuang's heart moved, and she said softly: "Wang Huwei, I want to discuss this matter with you. ”

"Miss, please speak. Wang Chong frowned.

"I intend to let you come to me to help me deal with outside affairs, and I need to inform the second uncle about this matter, but I still want to hear what you mean first. ”

Hearing Xiahou Shuang's words, Wang Chong glanced up in some surprise, quickly lowered his head, and replied after a moment's thought: "Thanks to the eldest lady, the villain is willing." ”

"Second Uncle has me to say, just wait for my news. Seeing that Wang Chong agreed, Xiahou Shuang's tone became brisk, and he said to Wang Chong happily.

Then he arranged a call to Wang Chong, and Wang Chong went back to prepare after hearing it.

On the second day, after Xiahou Shuang finished handling the affairs, he asked Mrs. Jiang to stay.

Mrs. Jiang was apprehensive in her heart, remembering that a few days ago, Mama Wang, who was next to her wife, came to look for her.

That day, Mama Wang took herself to a remote place in the backyard, and she wondered and asked, "Old sister, what are you doing here?"

Mama Wang couldn't smile and lowered her eyes: "Mrs. Jiang, how does Madame treat you on weekdays?"

"Madame's kindness to the slave and maid family is like a mountain, not only let me manage the purchase, but also let the men in my family go to the village to do the housekeeping, and the lady's kindness to the slave and maid family is not repaid even if they are cattle and horses. ”

Mama Wang smiled silently, waited for Mrs. Jiang to show her loyalty, pulled the corners of her mouth and said: "It's good that you know, now that the third lady is injured, it is difficult for the lady to take time out to deal with the housework, I wanted to hand over these chores to the old lady for a few days, but I didn't think about it, but I was robbed by the eldest lady! Although the lady didn't say it, she hated the white-eyed wolf of the eldest lady in her heart. ”

After a while, he said: "I, a slave, can't bear to see my wife worry every day, and I have a plan to secretly make a stumbling block for the eldest lady, so I thought of you, and I will discuss it with you today." ”

Mrs. Jiang sighed in her heart: "I don't know what the old sister wants me to do?"

Mama Wang said sideways: "It's not a big deal, it's just that when the kitchen arranges the purchase, you buy a few fewer things every day, just say that there are no these things outside that day, don't be afraid, you are two people, and no one will suspect you for a while." ”

"Wait for a few days, there will always be some meals in each room, and there will be rumors that the eldest lady is going to cut the consumption, and then someone will come out to question, hum!

Mrs. Jiang knew that this Mama Wang had been beaten by the old lady because of the eldest lady, and she was so resentful today, she was trying to let out a bad breath.

Mrs. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Mama Wang's arrangement, it didn't sound like a big deal, there were things that couldn't be bought in the past, and she responded in her heart.

Who knew that in the next few days, Mama Wang came over every day to deliver letters, first to put a few young masters' dishes on her feet, and then to the second lady's room. Finally, when she arrived at the old lady, Mrs. Jiang was worried in her heart and bluntly said that she didn't dare to do it anymore.

When Mama Wang came again, she said bluntly: "I heard that because your child is addicted to gambling, he owes a lot of foreign debts. These ingots of silver were given to you by your wife, so don't be ignorant. ”

After saying that, she couldn't help but stuff a few ingots of silver, and Mrs. Jiang complained bitterly in her heart, but she didn't dare not accept it.

Indeed, his unsuccessful son owed a lot of foreign debts, and those creditors shouted and cursed at the door every day, so frightened that sometimes he did not dare to return home.

Looking at the silver in her arms, Mrs. Jiang calculated that in addition to paying off her son's foreign debts, the rest could also be a daughter-in-law.

The son is also not young, because of the gambling reputation in the market is very bad, several times to invite the matchmaker has not been invited, with these silver hands are also more generous, in the matchmaker also has the confidence, can be set smoothly is the best.

There is silver in hand, Mrs. Jiang is not insisting, who knows that it has not been a few days, but today she was left by the eldest lady, I hope it is not because of this incident. Mrs. Jiang prayed secretly, but unfortunately God never heard her prayer.

"Mrs. Jiang!" Xiahou Shuang interrupted Mrs. Jiang's thoughts with a soft sigh.

"The slave is here. Mrs. Jiang crossed her hands, lowered her head, and replied respectfully.

"Do you know what made you stay today?" Xiahou Shuang's cold voice fell on Jiang Pozi's ears.

"The slave doesn't know, please make it clear to the eldest lady. Mrs. Jiang replied cautiously.

Xiahou Shuang didn't speak, Yueyun, who was standing beside her, took a few steps forward with a booklet in her hand, walked up to Mrs. Jiang, flipped through the booklet and read: "On the fifth day of this month, Mrs. Jiang did not purchase the shepherd's cabbage that the slave and maid had handed over. On the 7th of this month, Mrs. Jiang did not buy back the Buddha's hand that the slave and maid had confessed. ...... of the month"

Yueyun came unhurriedly one by one, and it took half a cup of tea to put down the booklet in his hand and return to Xiahou Shuang.

For a while, the room was silent, only the slight sound of Xiahou Shuang's clothes rubbing when she lifted the teacup to drink.

Mrs. Jiang stood at the bottom, and she was already in a cold sweat when Yueyun began to read. After Yueyun finished reading and retreated, his hands and feet were even weaker, and he couldn't wait for Xiahou Shuang's question for a long time, so he couldn't support it anymore and knelt on the ground: "Ask the eldest lady to spare her life, the slave and maid don't dare to slack off anymore, and she will do a good job in the future." ”

Xiahou Shuang saw that Mrs. Jiang was crying with a handful of snot and tears, and snorted coldly: "Slack?
