Chapter 29 Settlement of Accounts
  Mother Li quickly sent the little girl to invite the doctor.

After a few injections from the government doctor, Mrs. Xiao slowly woke up.

The first thing I did when I woke up was to look for everything I could find around me. I threw all the cheap things at Xiao Yuanming.

Xiao Yuanming was stunned as soon as he entered the door.

The slightly fatter body was unable to dodge and was hit frequently.

"Mother, why are you so angry? Being so angry can hurt your body!"

Mrs. Xiao pointed at him with trembling hands, but she was speechless and couldn't say a word.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li had no choice but to say what she needed to say on her behalf.

"Uncle, you are already a grown man. You have no idea why you have squandered money. You have spent 80,000 taels of silver in this month. How can the old lady come up with so much silver to fill this gap for you?"

Mother Li was very good at talking. She not only admonished Xiao Yuanming, but also greatly protected Mrs. Xiao's face.

He just transferred the money that Hua Qingmu had used to fill the loopholes in the past two months to Mrs. Xiao's amount of money.

Hua Qingmu Feng's eyes were slightly lowered, making it unclear what she was thinking.

After hearing what Wu Ma said, Xiao Yuanming subconsciously looked at Hua Qingmu. Did the third daughter-in-law forget to pay the debt?

This is why my mother is so angry! It's too unworthy.

"Mother, are you angry about this?"

He looked at the shopkeepers around him and said displeasedly: "Shopkeeper Liu, are you afraid that the Xiao Mansion won't give you money or something, but you actually came to visit me, are you going to do business in the future?" "

The shopkeepers are all good people, and the money must come to them, but they cannot be offended.

This is the grandfather who is a big money maker. They looked at each other awkwardly.

Shopkeeper Liu explained: "We have no choice. Uncle Xiao, the things you bought from us are of the highest quality. If you don't receive the money for a long time, look at this... we won't be able to do business." Are you going down?"

Others also agreed.

Xiao Yuanming had no choice but to say to Mrs. Xiao: "Mom, look, it's not the third younger sister who always settles the bill for this matter. This is probably a mistake. Let the third younger sister make up for it and it's over. Right, third younger sister?"

The last sentence was said to Hua Qingmu.

"Haha~" Hua Qing was happy.

Emotionally, he treats her as a private bank. He only needs to be responsible for consumption, and the money will automatically arrive in his account.

"Is it Qingmu's fault that the elder brother said this?"

Xiao Yuanming quickly waved his hand to deny: "No, no, I didn't mean it like that!"

"Then what do you mean, brother? Did I not settle these accounts for the Hua family, or did I, Hua Qingmu, swallow all the Xiao family's money?"

Xiao Yuanming was stunned. He obviously didn't mean this.

Hua Qingmu continued: "Brother, this Mingyue Tower, Pet Shop, etc., have signed an agreement with the Xiao Mansion for monthly payments?"

Xiao Yuanming shook his head: "Although there is no signature, it is always not the case that after the Xiao Mansion spends money, they will send someone to pick it up, and the Xiao Mansion will settle the settlement. Now that Xiao Mansion is run by you, my younger brother and sister, it is naturally up to you to settle the bill, isn't it? ?"

"Then Qingmu will have to settle this account with eldest brother. In addition to the 80,000 taels today, does eldest brother know how much you spent from Jinzhiyuyefang, Nishang Pavilion, Embroidery Shop and other cooperative shops in the mansion?"

Where does Xiao Yuanming have this concept?

Hua Qingmu stretched out two fingers.

"Two hundred taels?" He didn't even believe it after saying that. It must be at least a thousand taels.

So he asked again: "Two thousand taels?"

Hua Qingmu shook her head.

"It can't be twenty thousand taels, right?" Hua Qingmu nodded.

"They are cheating money! How can I use so much!"

At this time, Wu and Jiang also rushed over.

Mrs. Xiao sent someone to find Xiao Yuanming directly from outside, so Wu didn't know about it at first.

As soon as he entered the house, he heard that he had spent 20,000 taels on jewelry and clothes for the women outside. He felt like he was possessed by a yaksha and went to scratch him.

"You arrogant bitch! I have lost so much property for you! You actually spent 20,000 taels of clothes and jewelry a month for the vixen outside! Ask yourself, since I married you, you have given me a total of Do you have this amount of clothes and jewelry to buy?”

"Hong'er is so old, it doesn't matter if you don't want to make progress, you still spend your days drinking and drinking! Why don't you learn from your second and third brothers!"

Xiao Yuanming had just been beaten by Mrs. Xiao, and now he was scratched by his own mother-in-law. He was suddenly in a state of confusion.

Out of anger, he stretched out his hand and greeted him with a slap.

With a sound of "Pa!", there was a slap mark on Wu's fair face.

The pearl earring was scratched off, leaving a trail of blood on her ear, which made her jump in pain.

Just when she was about to continue her rage, Mrs. Xiao's ears started to buzz, which gave her a headache. She shouted loudly: "Get out of here!"

Wu was so aggrieved that she complained: "Mom, don't even look at what this is! I gave birth to children for him, but it would be better for him to use the money in the house to raise prostitutes!"

Mrs. Xiao rubbed her bulging temples and asked someone to pull her aside.

He lowered his tone and said to Hua Qingmu: "Qingmu, you should handle this matter first and discuss the rest later."

This means that she should buy it first, so that the Xiao family will not continue to be embarrassed in front of outsiders.

She has to fill all the holes.

At this moment, Xiao Yuankai had also returned from the court. Hearing what happened here, he rushed over in a few steps.

After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, he said to Hua Qingmu: "Madam, please handle this matter properly first, and we will discuss the rest later."

As expected of mother and son, they both said exactly the same thing.

Hua Qingmu counted the time and realized that this wave of people should have arrived, so they should deal with them together.

At this moment, another little girl came to report that Jinzhiyuyefang had also sent someone over.

Mrs. Xiao was stunned for a moment, looked at Hua Qingmu, and said displeasedly: "Isn't Jinzhi Yuyefang your property? Why do you need to collect money for your own property?"

Hua Qingmu replied aggrievedly: "Old madam, to be honest, Jinzhi Yuyefang is no longer Qingmu's personal property, but has been taken away by my father. My father said it was Qingmu's poor management. In the past two months, a huge amount of money has been lost." Unfortunately, if I continue to operate according to Qingmu, I’m afraid I won’t be able to close the business within half a year.”

This "huge loss" was naturally understood by everyone present.

I heard that Fengwu Jiutian, which was just released this month, was worth a lot of money, and Mr. Xiao wanted it as soon as it was released.

There are rumors that it was given to the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Ding'an who is currently staying in the mansion.

There was also the previous peacock in full bloom, but Mr. Xiao took it and gave it away without hesitation, which was a generous move.

They were all engaged in business, and the shopkeepers secretly sighed that it was not worth it to take care of Hua Qingmu.

The Hua family has a great business, but they make wedding clothes for others.

Mr. Xiao took Mrs. Xiao's money and turned around to borrow flowers and offer them to Buddha to please other women.

Uncle Xiao even more indulged in drinking and squandering the Hua family's money without restraint.

Looking at the way Mrs. Xiao treats Mrs. Xiao San today, I am afraid she is not a kind person.
