"Yuru, are you really not the one who spread the previous rumors?" After saying this, Qin Huaiyong's eyes immediately became unusually deep and he asked Qin Yuru.
"Father, it's really not me!" Qin Yuru didn't react as quickly as Di. When Qin Huaiyong asked, a trace of pride flashed in her eyes. She didn't believe what her father would do to her if she didn't say anything. Anyway, it was really not her. It was said that some young ladies were curious and sent their servants to inquire about it from their own servants.
"That's because the people around you are talking nonsense. You will ask each of them to go to the steward to receive ten sticks and be fined half a year's salary!" Qin Huaiyong said decisively.
"Father..." Qin Yuru screamed in shock. She was almost stunned. She never expected that Qin Huaiyong would punish everyone around her. This was beating everyone to death with a stick, which would make her in the future How to support your loved ones.
"If there are still those who talk nonsense in the future, they will be sold out directly. We don't need such servants in the house who talk nonsense!" Qin Huaiyong stood up with a cold face.
"General, Yuru doesn't know anything, you..." Di wanted to help Qin Yuru to intercede, so she also stood up.
"Okay, it's been so long. Let's go back. Mother is tired too!" Qin Huaiyong said with a cold face without allowing her to say anything more. After speaking, he saluted the silent old lady and then walked out. .
When he walked to the door, he seemed to think of something again. He turned around and took a closer look at Shui Ruolan, and his eyes softened: "Ruolan, take good care of yourself. I will give you two more wives. After a while, Have someone bring it to you!"
"Thank you, cousin!" Shui Ruolan stood up and bowed.
Qin Huaiyong nodded and glanced at Qin Wanru. He wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. He just moved his lips, then turned around and strode away.
"Father..." Qin Yuru wanted to chase him out unwillingly, but was grabbed by Di. Sensing the sweat in Di's hands, Qin Yuru gritted her teeth and calmed down.
"Mother, I'm going to find my grandmother!" Qin Yuru turned around and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Of course, these words reminded the servants present that she is the granddaughter of Yong Kangbo Mansion!
She was unwilling to be given the upper hand by Qin Wanru. Ever since she found out that she was her father's only daughter, Qin Yuru had a higher and higher self-esteem. She felt that Qin Wanru was just a bastard who appeared out of nowhere and was worthy of being compared with her. .
Seeing Qin Wanru calling Di's mother affectionately without knowing anything, I felt like I was watching a joke every time. Is such a low-born person worthy of having a mother like me
Now being suppressed by the bitch she despises the most, she is not angry, and she doesn't really want to go to Yong Kangbo Mansion. She just wants to let them know that her maternal grandfather's home is Yong Kangbo Mansion, not Qin Wanru This wild child picked up from nowhere can be compared.
"Yuru, don't cry yet. If someone is really trying to pick a fight between you and Wanru behind your back, of course you will be punished." Di also knew that the words she had unconsciously been quoted were bad. Once her words got out, she knew something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, Qin Huaiyong punished Qin Yuru's people without saying a word. He was filled with hatred, but he couldn't show it on his face!
Pulling out a smile, he said to Shui Ruolan on the side: "Sister, this matter in the house is going to trouble my sister. When the time comes, I will call the people around Yuru over, and you will punish them well and tell them. Follow the rules!"
Shui Ruolan is now in charge of things in the house, so it makes sense for Shui Ruolan to take charge of this matter.
Di's family was originally at odds with Shui Ruolan. If Shui Ruolan ordered people to fight Di's people, they would definitely dislike Shui Ruolan even more, and become more loyal to Di's family.
Qin Wanru sneered in her heart that Mrs. Di was really good, and she thought of a countermeasure in just a moment. No wonder she had been calling the shots in the Qin Mansion for so many years. She was so big in the backyard that even the old lady couldn't stop her!
Seeing that Shui Ruolan was about to speak, she stretched out her hand and pulled Shui Ruolan's sleeve, signaling her to let her come.
"Madam, this matter was ordered by my father. Naturally, I went to the steward of the outer courtyard to receive the punishment. I can also let the servants of the inner and outer courtyards watch the punishment together, so that those who talk nonsense will not dare to talk nonsense next time, otherwise I will This time is more than just a simple cane and fine!"
Qin Wanru raised her head and smiled.
If it was a matter of punishment in the inner court, Shui Ruolan would indeed be asked to have someone execute the punishment, but just now it was said that it was Qin Huaiyong who wanted to punish them, so it can be regarded as a matter of the outer court, and the stewards of the outer court are Qin Huaiyong's own people.
But if this were the case, it would appear that it was Di who sent the people out to be beaten, rather than Shui Ruolan who disliked Di's people and deliberately found trouble to beat them. The meaning was completely different.
"If you don't ask Mrs. Shui for matters in the inner courtyard, why bother your father's people?" Qin Yuru also heard the twists and turns in this and immediately said.
"But this is clearly the father's intention, not the mother's intention to hit someone!" Qin Wanru's eyes flashed.
"Hey, why are you talking?" Qin Yuru was furious!
"What I said is what father just meant, isn't it?" Qin Wanru's eyes were slightly cold.
Qin Yuru's face turned red with anger, and she wanted to speak, but she was interrupted rudely by the old lady: "Are you okay? If you are okay, please go down for a while. I'm tired here too. If you can't explain clearly, just go and find someone." Huair'er argued that he shouldn't have gone far yet, so just let a servant call him!"
This was said in a mild tone, and it was the first time the old lady had spoken since Qin Wanru came in, but her impatience was clearly expressed.
Even if Di's mother and daughter wanted to entangle again, with the old lady's words, they would not be able to say anything more.
Di took a deep breath, with a smile on her face: "Mom, Yuru and I will leave soon. What do you think of what you told your mother before?"
Knowing that anything he said at this time would only arouse the anger of the old lady, and he might even actually call Qin Huaiyong. It was not the right time for a head-on confrontation. Di Shi cleverly changed the topic and mentioned what the couple had come to the old lady to say before. matter.
"Just make your decision!" The old lady closed her eyes feebly, her face was gloomy with a hint of paleness, and she could tell at a glance that she was not in good spirits.
And just now the old lady was sitting there without saying a word, she must be in a bad mood.
"As long as mother agrees, then Yuru and I will go back first." Seeing that her goal was achieved, Di had no intention of confronting Qin Wanru and Shui Ruolan.
After bowing to the old lady, he pulled the reluctant Qin Yuru to bow too, and then left with Qin Yuru.
After the two people left, Shui Ruolan asked anxiously: "What did mother promise to sister?"
Di's reaction was very strange. She could even tolerate the fact that the people around Qin Yuru would be punished. It seemed that her intentions were not trivial. Shui Ruolan was worried that she would be detrimental to the old lady.
"She wants to buy a few more new shops in the house!" the old lady sneered, "and Huaier also agreed!"
The purpose of Qin Huaiyong's accompaniment to Mr. Di's family just now was to marry into the newly arrived shop in the mansion. He said that he wanted to marry into the Yong-Kangbo Mansion. The dowry was indispensable. Marrying high should not be looked down upon. He said a lot of things. Just as he was talking, Qin Yuru came back crying.
"Where is Madam's own shop?" Qin Wanru was keenly aware of what was going on here and asked back.
"It is said that he has been away from Beijing for the past few years, and the affairs of the shop have been under the control of Yong Kangbo Mansion. Unexpectedly, the person in charge felt that Di had not been in Beijing for so many years, so he didn't care so much. The more he took care of the shop, the more he Not much, in recent years not only have there been profits, but there have even been losses!”
The old man said tiredly, not only the body but also the mind.
She had some ideas that she didn't have before, but now she has them. However, everything she saw made her more and more disappointed. Di's endless begging for something was only based on the Yong-Kangbo Mansion.
Qin Wanru's heart moved: "Grandma, haven't these shops been returned yet?"
"I have to pay it back soon, but I have to organize the account books and other things first. When the time comes, bring the account books over and let Mrs. Di and your mother take a look at them and stamp them. The subsequent affairs of the store will be considered as our house. But it has been losing money, so there is not much use in keeping such a store!"
The old lady said.
"Why do you need mother to take a look at it?" Qin Wanru asked puzzledly. These books were all part of Di's dowry. She could just take a look at them herself. Why did she need to bring Shui Ruolan in? It was strange that Di's Since when have you been so generous
"This is your father's intention, and I heard that due to the loss, Yong-Kangbo Mansion is still short of a large amount of money. We will figure it out later. After we figure it out, we will have to pay Yong-Kangbo Mansion to make up for it for us. Money!"
The more the old lady thought about it, the more angry she became. She was also a person with a dowry, and she had a lot of dowry back then. She really didn't believe what Di said. The dowry shop would lose money if it lost money. .
If it is really so bad, just write to Mrs. Di and let her handle it. Why continue to block money? The Yong-Kangbo Mansion is so rich and is willing to subsidize the loss of a married daughter's shop. , and this was done without the other party’s knowledge.
Yong-Kangbo Mansion really treats everyone as fools!
But even if they knew there was something going on, there was no evidence, so the Ren Yong-Kang Bo Mansion could only make such a deal.
Most of the money in the outer courtyard's accounts was used to buy and sell new shops, and there were also some gifts from Qin Huaiyong's travels in the capital. The old lady herself was still rich in the inner courtyard, so she wanted the inner courtyard to transfer the accounts. Now the person in charge is Shui Ruolan, if you go to the tent in the inner courtyard, you have to let Shui Ruolan see it.
The twists and turns here were very deep, and the old lady felt that Qin Wanru couldn't understand it. At this time, she was just too angry and couldn't help but say it!
"Grandma, can you let me accompany my mother to take care of the accounts then? My mother can't afford to worry about it now!" Qin Wanru smiled slightly and took over the job.
I didn't expect that such a thing would happen, but it saved me a lot of trouble. I had long thought that there was something wrong with Di's dowry, and I was trying to attract some good news. Now that this brick has been brought to me, why don't I want it!
Di is so generous, probably because he thinks this is a useless brick, right
The old lady agreed with Qin Wanru's concerns and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, then you will accompany your mother!"
The little granddaughter is getting smarter and smarter, and the old lady feels that with her around, it will be better to deal with the cunning and greedy Di!
Of course, bricks alone were not enough. She also needed something. She raised her head and said with a smile: "Grandma, you still have an account here, right? Maybe you will change the original account then?"
