Empress Dowager: Husband, please lie down

Chapter 128

Seeing Xu's guilty conscience, the sneer on Ruan Hongwei's face became more obvious, and he couldn't help snorting, "Xu, I have always trusted you and believed that you can take care of the backyard. So, if you can manage the backyard for the past two years I have collected all the expenses, and I will trust you even more from now on."

Hearing what Ruan Hongwei said, not only Xu's whole body began to tremble slightly.His complexion became paler, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead one by one, and he stood in front of Ruan Hongwei helplessly.

"Master, my concubine..."

"Huh? You want to say that you have been sick and bedridden for many days now, so your memory is not very good. You can't remember clearly, do you?"

Ruan Hongwei raised his eyebrows, "It's okay, if you don't remember clearly today... Anyway, there is still about a month before getting married in February, I have plenty of time for you to remember well."

After speaking, Ruan Hongwei said to Zhou Bo again, "Since Madam doesn't have a good memory, go and call me Ping'er and Zhu'er, who used to serve her personally. Presumably, what these two people did to Madam is determined." It is also somewhat clear, as for the accounts, let them try to make up a little bit."

Uncle Zhou was also a sensible person, so he nodded and went out.

A quarter of an hour later, I saw my aunt coming over with a worried face, and Zhu'er followed behind with her head down.

As soon as they saw Ruan Hongwei, they had a bad premonition in their hearts.He also saw Mrs. Xu standing beside Ruan Hongwei sweating profusely. Seeing the two people coming in, she kept winking at them.

At that moment, Aunt Ping understood a lot in her heart.

Seeing Aunt Ping and Pearl kneeling obediently on the ground, Ruan Hongwei cleared his throat and asked in a deep voice, "I called you back today because I have something important to ask you."

"Your wife, have you always had the habit of keeping accounts?!"

Not knowing why Ruan Hongwei asked this, Aunt Ping and Zhu'er looked at Mrs. Xu cautiously.Seeing that Xu's face is a little nervous, there must be something wrong with this account.

It's just that Ruan Hongwei still has several books of accounts at hand, if they say that Mrs. Xu doesn't have the habit of keeping accounts, where did they get these books?

If there is a habit of keeping accounts, why is Xu's body so flustered?

In the end, they are just servants of the mansion and can be dealt with by the master at will.If he offended Mrs. Xu, he might not end well.But if Ruan Hongwei is offended, I'm afraid...

Not only will he not end well.

Pearl lowered her head, not knowing how to answer.Aunt Ping lowered her head and thought for a long time before she raised her head and replied softly, "Master, madam has always been in the habit of keeping accounts."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Xu glared at Aunt Ping with a vicious expression!

"Oh? Really? You used to serve your wife personally four times ago, so you must have some understanding of her affairs. Then let me ask you, how many books does your wife have in total?"

Ruan Hongwei sneered in his heart, gave Xu a cold gouged look, then turned his head and asked Aunt Ping.

However, before Aunt Ping could answer, she saw Mrs. Xu hastily walked up to Ruan Hongwei, and said with an embarrassed smile, "Master, Ping'er has not served this concubine for a long time. Ever since she was raised by you as your concubine, my concubine So I tidied up a yard for her to live in. Naturally, she is not as clear as Zhu'er about the concubine's status."

The implication is to warn Zhu'er that she must answer easily.

Zhu'er bit her lip, and quickly replied, "Yes, master, Sister Ping'er has not been by Madam's side for a long time. Madam doesn't like us to disturb you when she keeps accounts, and she can understand more clearly in a quiet environment." Write down some accounts. Therefore, the lady has several accounts, and the slaves don't know."

As she said that, Zhu'er raised her head again, "However, when Madam took over the account book in the mansion earlier, the slaves knew that there was an account book."

Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Aunt Ping felt a little bit annoyed, why did Zhu Er insist on helping Mrs Xu, didn't she say that she was like a sister to her? !She also heard what Ruan Jing and Xu said a few days ago.

She also told Zhu'er all about it. At that time, Zhu'er was still filled with righteous indignation and said that what the wife and eldest lady did was too much.Why did you help Xu in the blink of an eye?
Aunt Ping lowered her head and cast a displeased glance at Zhu'er.

Now she already knows Ruan Jing and Xu's jealousy towards her, and if she is really pregnant with flesh and blood in the future, wouldn't she really be given by these people... But now that she is weak, how can she have the ability to be with her? Xu's counterbalance?
Aunt Ping bit her lip, no matter how unwilling she was, she didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing Ruan Hongwei's expressionless face, just staring at Zhu'er without speaking, Xu felt even more hopeless.If Ruan Hongwei really begins to doubt her, or orders Zhu'er to be dragged down to torture her...

Xu quickly continued, "Master, you see, they all know what the concubines have done."

The more Xu explained, the more weird Ruan Hongwei felt.

He stretched out his hand to pick up some ledgers on the table, and was about to say something when he saw Uncle Zhou coming over with a happy expression on his face, "Master, the old lady and the ladies have come back after offering incense and praying for blessings! The old lady is in very good spirits, and said There is good news to tell the master."

"good news?"

Ruan Hongwei frowned because he was a little confused. This was just going to offer incense and pray for blessings. How could there be good news when he came back?

Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, Ruan Hongwei didn't want to make a big deal about Xu's affairs for the time being, and make the whole mansion know about it.At that time, not only will I lose my face, but if it gets out, I'm afraid it will hurt the face of the government.

Therefore, Ruan Hongwei had no choice but to give up for the time being, stood up and stared at Xu sternly, and said coldly, "Today, I will save some face for you for the time being, and I will give you one night. Tomorrow morning, I will calculate all the expenses of the mansion for the past two years." Clear, send it to the study!"

After walking two steps, he went back to take away the ledgers on the table, and sneered at Mrs. Xu, "Of course these ledgers will not be handed over to you for the time being. If there is even the slightest mistake, you will be ready to hand over the burden of the hostess." Come out!"

After finishing speaking, Ruan Hongwei snorted coldly and walked away.

What he meant was that he couldn't make up the expenses of the government banker for the past two years, so he wanted to divorce her? !

Thinking of this possibility, Xu was shocked into a cold sweat.

She knew how much money she had embezzled from the mansion in the past two years.Not to mention how to fill this vacancy, but how to figure out this number and how to make up for the lies that I have uttered are all difficult problems!
As soon as Ruan Hongwei stepped out of the room with his front foot, Mrs. Xu sat limply on the ground with his back foot.If Ruan Hongwei divorced her, how would she survive?
　Babies, develop a good habit and get used to stepping on the king by voting every day.Then, maybe one day this king will explode, and come out ten times a day?Do the math, one chapter is [-] words, and ten chapters is [-]! !Think about it for yourself~ Ha~
