If there weren't so many people watching around, the great elder would definitely rush over and teach Chu Liuyue a lesson in person!
Such an arrogant look really makes people furious!
"Lu Yao! You have been in charge of the middle school in our family these years. Go check the list with them! Give them what you should give them, and don't touch what you shouldn't give!"
Lu Yao was startled by the loud shout. Seeing the anger on the elder's face, she subconsciously agreed.
"…yes."
The great elder didn't think it was enough, so he shouted in a deep voice to the other stewards:
"And you guys, let's go and watch together! This account can't be wrong at all!"
Several people responded quickly.
Lu Yao's whole body was tense and her steps were heavy, but she knew in her heart that in this situation, she had to do it no matter how unwilling she was.
Over there, two managers, Wu and others, had already set up their positions and started counting according to the list.
"A pair of eight-color glazed lamps, two sets of white jade December lanterns, a pair of gilt horse pots, and two painted harps—"
Lu Yao had no choice but to grit her teeth:
"Didn't you hear that!? Why don't you go to the warehouse and get the things?"
The servants responded and hurried over.
When they take out these things one by one, the few people Chu Liuyue brought will immediately come forward, take the things, carefully inspect them, then put them back and put them in the carriage.
Chu Liuyue smiled:
"These are the most powerful people in Zhenbao Pavilion. Although their positions are not high, they all have the best eyesight in identifying treasures. They can tell at a glance whether they are real or fake. It will be convenient for everyone in the future if they check carefully. no?"
One sentence shattered the last hope in Lu Yao's heart.
She closed her eyes resignedly.
Chu Liuyue... is going to fight against them to the end today!
…
At the teahouse not far from the Chu family, someone saw this scene clearly.
"This temper is as good as ever..."
Low laughter came from behind the bead curtain.
"Are these people transferred from you?"
Hearing the sound, Yan Ge leaned over again and said respectfully:
"Back to the headmaster, yes. Madam came to Zhenbao Pavilion early this morning. She only said she wanted to borrow someone, but she didn't expect..."
At that time, he was still very confused. He didn't know what Chu Liuyue wanted the steward to do, but who knew he was going to cause trouble for the Chu family!
Yan Ge has seen a lot of things in the market, but this is the first time he has seen such a posture.
Chu Liuyue is here to collect debts!
The key is that what you want is reasonable and cannot be denied!
The Chu family is so numerous that if Chu Liuyue comes alone, she will definitely come home defeated.
So she deliberately found a few people to expose the matter in public and make the matter bigger. This forced the Chu family to worry about their face and had to do as she said.
After all, the Chu family still has to lose face if they hang out in the imperial capital.
"You did a good job at this."
Hearing the appreciation in the master's tone, Yan Ge was flattered.
He has been with the boss for so many years, but he rarely hears such praise!
Today, I just transferred a few people to Chu Liuyue, and it made the boss so happy. It was really a big profit!
"The boss is ridiculous. My subordinates really didn't do much in this matter. Everything was Madam's own idea."
The person behind the bead curtain seemed to shake his head and said with a smile:
"Of course, only she can come up with such an idea, and only she can do it most simply."
How could anyone else dare to confront the Chu family single-handedly
Yan Ge thought for a while and couldn't help but said:
"Master, Madam, she doesn't seem to know your identity yet, nor does she know the things you have done for her. Do you want-"
"She will know when it's time for her to know. You just have to do your own thing."
Yan Ge lowered his head:
"yes."
…
In front of the Chu family's gate, Manager Wu and the two were still reviewing orders.
"This pair of half-moon double-eared wine glasses are fake. And this green bamboo and jade flute is also fake."
The few people brought by Chu Liuyue worked neatly and neatly. While moving things, they did not forget to identify the true and false things, and took out the false things separately and put them aside.
Every fake object that was taken out was equivalent to a slap in Lu Yao's face.
Everyone in the Chu family also had shame on their faces, and some of them couldn't help but look at Lu Yao with resentful expressions.
Who would have thought that Lu Yao, the head of the family, would be so arrogant in enriching his own pockets!
If they hadn't taken inventory of these things today, they wouldn't have known that the Chu family's property had been tampered with so much by Lu Yao!
These are just the dowry left by Mother Chu Liuyue. With so many assets in the house, who knows how much she has been greedy for!
Aware of these sights, Lu Yao's face quickly turned pale, and her whole body swayed, as if the leaves were swaying in the wind and rain, and would be blown away at any time.
If she could, she really wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it!
Every minute and every second I stand here is extremely painful!
Chu Liuyue held her chin in one hand and glanced at the fakes that were taken out, half-smiling.
"It seems that your family has lived a good life in these years. Why is Chu Xianmin so generous? Just buying a set of jewelry costs 200,000 taels of silver. Carnelian items are really not something ordinary people can afford. of."
Lu Yao couldn't wait to step forward and tear Chu Liuyue's mouth open!
That was clearly a trap set by Chu Liuyue for Minmin, but she actually had the nerve to say it! And it confuses right and wrong!
But before she opened her mouth, she noticed that the eyes of the Chu family around her became more resentful.
Her heart sank, knowing that they had believed Chu Liuyue's words.
With so many fake things out there, how could they still believe her
Even if Chu Liuyue didn't say anything, I'm afraid they already wanted to take her life directly at this time!
Time passed bit by bit, and Chu Liuyue was very leisurely, just sitting on the chair and watching.
In the meantime, shopkeeper Wu specially served her tea and exquisite snacks to prevent her from going hungry.
Chu Liuyue all followed Shan Ruliu.
She's like this. If you say she's here to ask for money, it's better to say she's here to get her life!
It was not until noon that the dowry lists were completed.
After that, Chu Liuyue demanded that the property be divided according to the contract that day, and she took away a lot of silver from the Chu family.
When Yinzi was loaded into the carriage, even if he was as strong-minded as the Great Elder, he couldn't help but twitch his eyes in distress.
The stewards looked at it eagerly, and when they thought of those messy account books, they felt even more painful.
The people who were watching were already dumbfounded when they saw so many treasures.
"I didn't expect that Mother Chu Liuyue would bring such a generous dowry when she married into the Chu family!"
"It is rumored that Chu Ning and Chu Liuyue have had a very difficult time in the Chu family these years. Their food and clothing expenses are sometimes not as good as those of servants. Can selling some of these treasures be enough for them to survive?"
"Chun Ning and his wife have a deep love for each other, so they must be reluctant to sell it... Besides, this thing is controlled by others. I'm afraid he has never seen it, let alone selling it?"
"That's right. The Chu family is really bleeding a lot this time!"
The carriage pulled again and again, and it was not easy to take everything away.
In front of the gate, only the fakes that had been kicked out were left, which looked particularly embarrassing.
Chu Liuyue stood up and rubbed his shoulders lazily.
She was really tired after sitting for most of the day.
"Okay, let's get here first today."
Elder Chu's eyelids twitched: What do you mean? She's still coming!
Chu Liuyue seemed to have read his thoughts and waved her hands freely:
"Don't worry, I won't come again in the future. However, shopkeeper Wu has already recorded the accounts for these fake things. Please make up for them in the future. You can send them to my house, or I can send someone to pick them up. .”
The great elder could not hide his anger and looked at Lu Yao:
"This is the good thing you have done in the past few years! Fill this hole yourself!"
Lu Yao swayed.
Chu Liuyue smiled meaningfully:
"Why is Elder Chu so angry? They are just small things. Even if the Chu family refuses to take them and the Lu family is as rich as the enemy, these are not a piece of cake? Lu Yao, don't you think so?"
