Juan Wang's Little Lady: Nongmen hunters work hard to plow the fields

Chapter 84

Tweety knelt on the ground trembling, tried to stand up several times, but couldn't.At this time, no one stepped forward to help her, and they all whispered bad things to each other.

"On weekdays, she and Aunt Zhao are the closest, and they team up to bully the mistress. If they don't sell her, who will they sell?"

"I've seen this little goblin displeased for a long time, she deserves it!"

"The last time Miss Yi came back, she poured dirty water on Miss at the gate, is this the world's retribution? Bah!"

The servants saw that this unlucky guy who had been sold off already had a candidate, so naturally it was not his turn, and while secretly rejoicing and gloating, they all waited to see the good show.

Su Lian sat upright and said with a faint smile, "Tui'er, I haven't spoken yet, what are you doing kneeling down? Stand up and talk."

Tweety couldn't stand up, if she hadn't supported her upper body with her hands, she would have fallen to the ground.

Seeing her like this, Su Lian said coldly: "Since you don't want to get up, just kneel down and be obedient."

She opened the account book in front of her and asked: "On March [-] last year, you withdrew three taels of silver from the account room, saying that the mistress asked you to buy Xinglinji cosmetics, but the mistress never received any Xinglinji cosmetics. But the money has actually been spent. Let me ask you, where did the money go?"

When Tweet heard this, she yelled that she was wronged, insisting that the accountant made a mistake.

Su Lian snorted coldly: "Misremembered, you misremembered March, April and May, July, August, September, October, every month spent money to buy makeup, but nothing entered the big lady's room , Do you remember everything wrong?"

"This..." Tweety crawled on the ground and shivered, but couldn't find an excuse.

Su Lian continued: "Article No. 17 of Daqi Lunu states that if a domestic slave is greedy for more than three taels of money from the master's family, the master can report to the official, cut off his hands and feet, or sell himself as cheap." Ji. You corrupted more than 20 taels of silver in total last year, just do the math, how many hands and feet are enough to chop off?"

When Cui'er heard that the master wanted to chop her hands and feet, she immediately kowtowed: "Miss, please forgive me! Miss, please spare my life! The servant did not take a tael of silver. Aunt Zhao ordered the servant to pay the silver in the name of buying makeup. , as soon as the servant took out the silver, he gave all the money to Aunt Zhao! The servant really didn’t take any silver taels from the mansion, please check carefully, miss!”

Su Lian smiled faintly: "You said that all the money was given to Aunt Zhao, but she didn't sign this copybook, it only has your finger film from Tweety. Now Aunt Zhao has been deported, I don't know where to find it She asks. Why don't I sell you too, so you go outside and ask Aunt Zhao."

Cui'er yelled for injustice, shouting hoarsely, making Su Lian's ears ringing.She winked at the old servant of the Su Mansion, the always upright Ambassador Zhong, Zhong Da went up and slapped Tweety five or six times, her face immediately swelled up.

Su Lian said: "My mother is weak and can't bear to make noise. Today's discussion, if there are any more people who are crying and cursing in the street, it will be like her."

Tweety was beaten, lying on the ground and crying.

Su Lian laughed again: "Why do you have to be like this, girl? It's not that I didn't give you a choice, report to the official to go to jail, cut off your hands and feet, or go to Washe as a prostitute with all your eyes? Girls can make their own choices. In my opinion, girl Life is like flowers and jade, it is a pity to lose hands and feet, let's choose the road of Washe!"

Cui'er heard this, got up from the ground again, kept kowtowing and said: "Miss, please forgive me! Miss, please forgive me!"

Su Lian recalled the first time she returned home after getting married, how arrogant this girl was at that time, and how happy she was to be able to ride on the head of the mistress and the daughter-in-law to do her best.At that time, she must have thought that clinging to an aunt would be able to run rampant in this mansion for the rest of her life.In the world, how can we do bad things without leaving any room for ourselves.

Seeing the blood on the corner of the girl's mouth and the blood mark on her head, she felt a little pity.In her heart, she hated the torture of beheading her hands and feet, and she also hated selling a girl as a lowly person, so naturally she would not really let this girl end up like that.It's just that if you don't be more ruthless at this moment, the servants will not know how powerful her methods are, and they will not obey her mother in the future.

Su Lian looked at Cui'er, and said with a faint smile: "If you don't choose the way I give you, then you can just kowtow, and I will come to make up your mind for you after I finish cooking."

Everyone saw that this daughter-in-law speaks in a gentle and soft voice, but the things she did were so ruthless, but people couldn't find any faults.She kept silent about Tweety's personal grievances with her and the mistress, but took out the account book to seek guilt.If it is a personal grievance, it can still be prevaricated; but what is written in black and white cannot be denied.

Today, everyone understands that the sudden downfall of Aunt Zhao is probably not accidental, and it is most likely that she fell into the hands of this prostitute.

Li saw Cui'er kowtowed until blood was all over her head, but her daughter's expression remained unchanged. She really didn't know when her daughter became so cruel.Before she came out of the cabinet, her Lian'er was a rich lady who dared not speak in front of others, but now the principal is so thoughtful and pungent, she really is a different person.

After Su Lian cleaned up Cui'er, seeing that everyone was silent, she opened the account book in front of her again.

"Is Nanny Chang here?" Su Lian asked by name.

When Nanny Chang heard her name, she walked out with her head held high.She is an old man in the house, not like a young girl like Cui'er, a young lady who has never given birth to a concubine wants to take advantage of her, she is a little tender.

Nanny Chang looked sideways at Su Lian, raised her head and said, "This old slave is here, what do you want Miss to order?"

Su Lian smiled and said: "I dare not obey the order, I have something to ask you, Mother Chang."

"Young lady, if you want to know anything, just ask, and the old slave will tell you everything."

Su Lian opened the account book and said slowly: "Since January last year, you have withdrawn five taels of silver every month, saying that it was used to buy rice noodles from Xinji Rice Shop, but I checked last night that the rice noodles in the mansion are all from the same name. How to explain it for Fucai?"

Nanny Chang glanced at Su Lian, raised her head and replied, "Of course it's because Fucaiji's rice is better than Xin's!"

"Oh? Is that so?" Su Lian smiled lightly, and asked Nanny Chen to take a portion of rice from Fucaiji and rice from Xinji.

"The rice in Xinji costs half a tael of silver and a stone. It is all new rice and has no moths. The rice in Fucaiji is all three to five years old rice, which is full of rice worms, and it costs a tael of silver a stone. How does Mammy explain?"

"This... the quality of each batch of rice varies. The rice from Fucaiji last year was indeed better than that from Xinji! This old servant is not lying!"

Su Lian smiled faintly: "I ate all the rice from last year. If there is no evidence to prove it, the mother will not admit it. However, I found this very interesting. The mother eats the rice that the letter remembers for the master and herself, but puts The rice from Fucaiji is given to the servants in the mansion, it is unexpected that Madam is so self-sacrificing."
