94, visit in the middle of the night

Hearing the knock on the door, Ishihara winked at Ding Zhong and signaled him to open the door, and he followed him out.

Shi Jinrou and Xiao Lian walked into the inner room. It was late at night, no matter who came, she and Xiao Lian could not show up easily.

After Ding Zhong opened the gate of the courtyard, he looked at the eldest wife who had returned in surprise, and had several thoughts in his mind.

Madam Ruan, behind the eldest wife, looked at Ding Zhong neither speaking nor saluting the eldest wife, and rebuked dissatisfiedly: "There is no rules!"

Ding Zhong glanced at Madam Ruan coldly. For some reason, Madam Ruan felt that her eyes were like a knife and a sword, which scared her so much that she shivered and didn't dare to talk more.

Seeing that Madam Ruan lowered her head, Ding Zhong made way slightly, but his back was straight and he didn't look like a slave at all.

Ding Zhong is not a servant of the Dong family, so he did not sign a contract with the Dong family. Strictly speaking, he is not even a slave to Ishihara Hai. After being rescued by Ishihara Hai and his wife, he voluntarily stayed by Ishihara Hai and his wife and was willing to be a slave, but he did not sign a contract with Ishihara Hai and his wife. Therefore, his attitude towards the eldest wife can be determined by his mood.

The eldest lady was in no mood to pay attention to these subtitles now, and walked in with Madam Ruan and a maid with a lantern.

When Ishihara Hai saw that the eldest lady was coming, she suddenly sank her face and asked in an extremely cold voice: "Madam, it's midnight in the middle of the night, why are you here? Have you forgotten that I am a 'outsider'? Should you avoid taboo?" Ishihara Hai deliberately took the word "tag" very seriously, and changed the name of the eldest lady, and no longer called her "sister-in-law".

Of course, the eldest lady could hear what Ishihara Hai meant, but she didn't care at all. Even if Ishihara Hai could guess that she had poisoned Rumei, so what? Even if Ishihara Hai found some evidence, she could find a kitchen woman to take the blame. What's more, with the "living life" friendship between the master and the prefect Bai, she might even be exempted from being punished. After all, the only one who died was just a maid.

The eldest wife looked as usual and said to Ishihara Kaito: "Second brother-in-law, I'm here so late, of course it's important to do it."

As he said that, regardless of Ishihara Hai's reaction, he directly ordered the maid who carried the lantern and Ding Zhong, "I have something to do with Mr. Shi, so you two want to stay in the yard."

After saying that, he walked towards Ishihara Hai's house first, and Madam Ruan followed closely behind.

Ishihara Hai was about to "talk about" what happened tonight with his eldest wife, so he also entered the house.

After entering the room, the eldest lady sat directly on the main seat, took out a stack of silver notes with varying denominations from her arms, waved them to Ishihara and threw them on the table, and said, "This is three thousand taels, where is the account book?"

What a big lady, in a blink of an eye, turned the five thousand taels that Master Dong had just ordered into three thousand taels. Moreover, she did not listen to Master Dong's instructions at all. When she met Ishihara Hai, she mentioned the account book directly. It was not that the big lady did not treat Master Dong as a dish, but that she didn't care about Ishihara Hai at all.

Ishihara Hai was slightly surprised. She didn't expect that the eldest wife would come to give him money to ask for the account book at this time. But he could not push the account book on Shi Jinrou, so he had to sneer and said:

"The murder just happened in the mansion, and the eldest lady actually has the leisure to ask for the account book?"

The eldest lady snorted and said as if nothing had happened: "Second brother-in-law, I don't know what murder you are talking about. Rumei died of a sudden illness. I will take care of her afterlife. I am here to talk to you about the second sister's dowry, so don't bother me with other trivial matters."

Before Ishihara Hai could speak, Shi Jinrou lifted the curtain and walked out of the inner room.

"Small things? A life is just a small thing for you? The eldest lady really dares to speak! Do you really think others can't see that you want to poison me? Let me tell you, I'm fine now, not only my luck, but also your luck. If something happens to me, everyone in the world will know the content of the salt bill tomorrow!" Shi Jinrou said bluntly.

Before the eldest wife entered the house, Shi Jinrou pulled Xiao Lian and hid in the inner room. However, when she heard that the eldest wife was coming to discuss the account book, she immediately decided to come out to meet the eldest wife. The eldest wife's rogue and shamelessness were not something that her father, Ishihara, who only reads the books of sages.

Ishihara Hai looked at his daughter and suddenly felt very regretful. It would be great if Xiaorou was a boy, and she would definitely have a much better future than herself in the future!

The eldest lady is really troubled by Shi Jinrou now. She thinks that this girl is her nemesis. She can't fight against her, and she can't even figure out how to plot against her. Even if she kills her, she will avoid it.

If someone talks to the eldest wife like this, Madam Ruan will definitely jump out and curse people for the eldest wife, because this is one of her "responsibility". She and the eldest wife have always been a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a sing of a

Facing the angry face of Ishihara Hai and the righteous Shi Jinrou, the eldest lady took a deep breath, forced a smile, and said, "Xiao Rou, don't say such a heartless thing. Rumei's matter really has nothing to do with me. I will definitely find out about this matter and give you an explanation. What do you think?"

Shi Jinrou certainly believed that the eldest wife would "find the matter", because "this matter" was originally done by the eldest wife, so is it necessary to investigate?

"Madam, I need you to give me an explanation, but it has nothing to do with Rumei, it only has to do with my mother's dowry. I will accept these three thousand taels first." Shi Jinrou's tone was a little sarcastic.

The eldest lady quickly followed the steps, and she picked up the silver notes on the table and handed them to Shi Jinrou. She didn't want to get entangled with Shi Jinrou about the matter of being as beautiful as a eyebrows.

"Here, please click clearly and don't just blame the debt!"

Shi Jinrou was not polite, so she took the silver bill directly and said to the eldest wife, "Don't blame the debt" and felt angry and funny. She counted the silver bills one by one.

In fact, it was the first time Shi Jinrou saw something like silver bills. She was "serious" and just pretended. Yu Guang kept looking at the eldest wife, and she was afraid that silver bills would be fake. People like the eldest wife could use any despicable means.

Looking at the eldest lady's painful expression, then looking at her father Ishihara Hai's face, and the denominations of these silver bills vary, and it seems that they were just gathered together temporarily. Shi Jinrou knew that these silver bills were probably real.

After counting, Shi Jinrou put the silver notes in her arms, looked at the eldest wife, and said with a smile: "Madam, there is still 12,000 taels left. Tomorrow is the last day. Don't miss the time! Ten thousand taels are all together, and I will hand over the account book to you."

The eldest wife suppressed her anger and said, "Xiao Rou, the mansion is a bit difficult now, and she really can't afford so much money. Three thousand taels are not a small amount, it's enough for you father and daughter to spend a few years. No matter what misunderstandings we have had, it's almost enough to be relatives, what do you think?"

Shi Jinrou stared at the eldest lady's eyes tightly, and after a while, he said, "Master, I heard that you are also from a wealthy family. I must have heard of the saying "No one can stand without trust"? How can I betray the number I had said before? It's so unpleasant to say it!"

When the eldest lady heard this, she was so angry that she seemed to have asked her to give her 15,000 taels, and it sounded like this dead girl reluctantly agreed!

Before the eldest wife could come up with a rebuttal, Shi Jinrou said again: "And that's right, I've told you that the account book is not in the mansion, and it's midnight. How do you ask me to get the account book?"

When the eldest wife heard this, she reacted quickly and immediately said, "Don't worry about this, just tell me the place and I'll send someone to pick it up."

Shi Jinrou smiled: "Madam, do you have the problem of 'selective deafness'? I just said that there is still 12,000 taels left. Didn't you hear it?"

The eldest wife couldn't help but feel angry and said angrily: "Xiao Rou, you'd better stop at the right time, otherwise..."

"What else? I'm bad at my reputation? I'm poisoning and murdering? Or hire someone to commit crimes?" Shi Jinrou pointed to the key points in every sentence.

The eldest wife was speechless. She had done all the first two things, but unfortunately, she failed.
