The Reborn Wife Returns

Chapter 50
Qi Jingfeng was slightly stunned, her manicured and round nails pinched her white and tender palms tightly, and opened them one by one. Looking at the deep crescent marks on them, a dark light flashed in her eyes.

"Lan'er, it's all right. The accountant's room burned down, so it needs to be rebuilt." Qi Jingfeng raised his eyes, looking at the flames that seemed to burn the shady scene red, the blackness in his eyes surged, as if the fire was about to be extinguished.

Gong Qinglan's face was frosty, watching the people who alarmed the mansion, the servant carried a bucket to put out the fire.However, the cold wind blew up the fire, making it impossible to extinguish it.

Hongyu who hurried over saw Gong Qinglan standing outside the study, and heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes were filled with steam: "Eldest young mistress, you are going to scare the slaves to death." She thought that the youngest mistress was in the counting room!
"No problem." Gong Qinglan comforted Hongyu, and said to Qi Jingfeng, "I think the old lady woke up with such a big commotion. Shall we go there?"

Qi Jingfeng nodded.

The two headed towards Changshou Residence, and they met the green water that summoned them on the way, and they arrived at the old lady's yard together.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a teacup was thrown head-on.Gong Qinglan felt dizzy, and a muffled hum came from above his head.

Gong Qinglan immediately pushed away Qi Jingfeng who was hugging her tightly. Sure enough, his back was wet, and the clothes were emitting steam. It could be seen that the teacup contained boiling hot tea.

"Hongyu, quickly help the young master to apply the medicine." Gong Qinglan suppressed the anger surging in his heart, looked at the old lady sitting cross-legged on the kang with awe-inspiring eyes, and said: "In such a cold day, the old lady is full of evil fire. Could it be that your heart is broken and you can't clear up the evil disease. How do you girls serve others? Hongyu, hurry up and ask the government doctor to see the old lady!" At the end, Gong Qinglan reprimanded the maid and ordered Hongyu to please doctor.

The old lady almost twisted her mouth in anger.The little bitch cursed her!Scold her for not being upright!

The second lady sitting beside her had gloating eyes.Fearing that the old lady would get angry and forget her purpose today, she hurriedly said: "My niece and daughter-in-law are overthinking, isn't the old lady getting angry because of the accountant's affairs?"

The old lady snorted coldly, and said sharply: "I said at the beginning that I wanted to marry someone from the right family, but you didn't believe me, because I fell in love with a shabby one. Now look, the key to the account has only been in her hands for less than a month, so she made a fake account , Empty the public’s money and fill your private pockets!” After a pause, he said in a strange way: “It’s no wonder that your mother who suffered from affluence has been bedridden for many years, and she suddenly recovered recently.

These words are extremely harsh, Gong Qinglan's mother's illness is not cured because the mansion has no money to treat her illness.Now that he is recovering from his illness, it is because he took a lot of good things from Qi Mansion and provided them well.

"Mother, there may be a misunderstanding here!" The second lady said hypocritically.

The old lady directly picked up the piles of ledgers on the table, threw them in front of Gong Qinglan, and sneered, "Misunderstanding? She thought that if she burned the accountant's office and threatened the manager of the village to make fake accounts to fool me, she would lose money? The ledgers are in duplicate. One is locked in the cashier, and the other is placed in the Zhuangzi. Today I will leave my words here, if the 10 taels of silver that Zhuangzi has been short of in the past three years, if I can’t get it out, I will sue the government.” The sharp-eyed Looking at Qi Jingfeng: "I'm waiting for you to do something, you should give up!"

Gong Qinglan sneered in her heart, the second wife only gave her the key this morning, and it took less than a day.Now it has been less than a month in the mouth of the old lady.Looking down at the fake account found from her house at her feet, she said indifferently: "The second aunt gave me the key to the account room only this morning. If I want to blackmail the steward into making fake accounts, it will be too late."

The second lady's eyes widened in surprise, and she said angrily: "My niece and daughter-in-law, you have to speak with your conscience. When my mother asked you to learn to manage accounts, I gave you the key."

Qi Jingfeng bent down and picked up a book of accounts, and said mockingly: "Lan'er has only been in the house for a month, how can she make false accounts for three years?"

The second wife froze, and argued: "It's all fake accounts, just talking nonsense. Don't say three years, even 30 years!"

"Second aunt knows how to do it well, and my nephew and daughter-in-law are ashamed. Today is a scene of a thief shouting, "Catch the thief!" Gong Qinglan's eyes were full of smiles, and she stretched out her hand, and Changshun and Changfu pushed the bound people away. came in.

Seeing these people, the second lady's complexion changed drastically, and panic flashed in her eyes!

Four well-dressed, ruffian-looking men, all tied up.Pushed by Changfu Changshun, he staggered and fell to the ground.

Gu Huan, the young man in the lead, knocked his knee on the ground, his face twisted slightly in pain.He opened his mouth to scold, but he saw the frightened Second Madam, as if seeing a life-saving straw, she said happily: "Second Cousin, you have to decide for your nephew, these eyesless things dare to tie me up, Get rough on me!"

"Second cousin" scared the second wife and three souls into losing their souls.Holding onto the Jinpa firmly with both hands, her fingers are blue and white.

"Let go of me soon! You blind things! I'm your second wife's nephew, and I'll make you look good later!" Gu Huan didn't seem to notice the second wife's gaffe, and yelled cursingly!
The old lady couldn't react for a while, but when she heard Gu Huan's abuse, she was so angry that she couldn't agree with her, she pointed at Gu Huan and said to the second lady, "Is this scoundrel your cousin?"

Second Madam's lips turned white, the old Madam claimed to be from a famous family, and she looked down on the poor and ruffians the most, and being related to them would be an insult to her status.

Subconsciously wanted to separate the relationship, but heard Gu Huan interjected: "Madam, I am the nephew of the second cousin, and my mother is the cousin of the second cousin." He came out, didn't he?
Hearing this, the old lady pulled her face down, and yelled at Gong Qinglan gloomily, "Why did you bring these rogues in? Are you going to tell me that they made fake accounts?" At the end of the tone, there was a Thick ridicule.

The smile on Gong Qinglan's face deepened. Seeing the second lady slumped on the chair, the corner of her mouth raised, "They don't make false accounts, but they have something to do with the shortfall of money."

"What did my niece and daughter-in-law say? What does this accounting matter have to do with them? Could it be that you hired them to set the fire?" The second lady lacked confidence because of a guilty conscience.

Gong Qinglan smiled without saying a word, Chang Shun immediately put the written receipts and bank notes found from Gu Huan on the small table on the kang one by one.

The old lady looked at the seal above and the content of the written document, and she was furious. 'Pa' slapped the table with one hand, and shouted: "Second daughter-in-law, tell me what this is?" After speaking, he threw the paper on the second wife.

Seeing the written evidence, the second lady was still in shock, and said with a pale face: "Mother, I... I don't know, she framed me, she must have framed me!" Panic eyes flickered, pointing at Gong Qinglan, insisting that it was her who framed me. for!
According to the law of Dai Viet, giving out profiteering money privately is to confiscate property.If she admits to lending money for profit, there will be no place for her in the Qi Mansion, and the old lady will hate her to die?
