When Grandma Wu appeared in front of everyone, everyone was shocked.
The original Nanny Wu, who had a good appearance and gentle speech, disappeared, and was replaced by an extremely thin and extremely old Nanny Wu. Her appearance remained the same, but her energy and energy were not as good as before. Her cheeks were fleshless and her hair was gray.
He looks more than ten years older.
Li Man'er also specially asked her to roll up her sleeves twice, inadvertently exposing the injury on her arm so that everyone could see clearly.
When Mrs. Cui saw Aunt Wu, she was furious. She didn't lower herself to have trouble with a slave. She was angry at Mrs. Guo. She had the ability to cause trouble, but she didn't have the ability to calm down!
In half a year, it's not easy to kill someone. But what did she do? Not only did she let Grandma Wu live well until now, but she also made her appear in front of everyone like this ghost. It's really...
…
Incompetent bungler.
"I see this is Grandma Wu?"
"Grandma has really good eyesight. She is none other than Grandma Wu."
Although Grandma Wu stayed in the country for half a year, tempering her character and changing her appearance, the rules in her body and the integrity engraved in her bones have not changed at all.
"My slave, please give my regards to the old lady." Aunt Wu knelt down respectfully and kowtowed to Mrs. Cui. She had not seen Mrs. Cui for a long time, and a thousand blessings were not enough.
"Get up quickly!" Mrs. Cui squinted her eyes and pretended to look at Grandma Wu, "Why have you lost so much weight, but the food served by Zhuangzi is not to your taste?"
Aunt Wu was not a stupid person. How could she not know Cui's intention? She immediately said: "Old Mrs. Lao is worried about me. It's my servant's fault. The country is nice, but I miss the big girl and have trouble sleeping and eating. I can't sleep at night."
, I lost a lot of weight."
"You are nostalgic. Now that you are back, you should work well by Man'er's side."
"yes."
"Get up!"
Aunt Wu stood up and stood back behind Li Man'er. Anyway, she had already made her appearance, and what happened next was up to the girl.
Yun Xiu personally served tea to Li Man'er, and then said: "Old madam, dinner is ready, why don't we just put it here? The eldest girl is tired after working hard all day, so you can leave her here to have a meal!"
Mrs. Cui likes to be quiet, and rarely lets people eat at her place. When Yun Xiu mentioned it, she didn't object and even told Grandma Wang, "Tell the kitchen to add two more dishes."
There was no need for Grandma Wang to go there in person for such a matter. When the mother-in-law standing outside heard what she said, she went immediately.
Someone brought hot water and twisted a towel to wipe Li Man'er's hands.
Yunxiu thought for a while, then took the balm that Cui used to protect her hands and handed it over, "Girl, please apply this. The old lady likes the scent of magnolia flowers."
Zi Yan quickly took it, unscrewed the cap, took out a piece and applied it to Li Man'er's hand, helping her spread it evenly.
Ms. Cui raised her eyes and looked at the door. Grandma Wang understood and led everyone in the room out.
Yun Xiu and Zi Yan also went down together, only Grandma Wu followed Li Man'er.
"You came back after a long and dusty journey, and you didn't even change your clothes before you came to my place. But what's so important?"
In the past, Mrs. Cui only thought that if Li Man'er wanted to stand up for Grandma Wu, she would definitely cause trouble. She was annoyed, and most likely she would not see anyone.
But the current Li Maner may not do this. If she wants to make a fuss, she can just make a fuss when Grandma Wu replies, there is no need to wait until now.
"Grandma, when I came back, I heard that my father was awake, and I was very happy. Originally, I should have gone to see my father first, but I was worried that his health would not be disturbed, so I wanted to go tomorrow. But, there is one thing
, it’s really important, I have to tell you immediately.”
"Say, I'm listening!" Cui was also very curious.
Li Maner took out Su Hai's two account books and handed them to Grandma Wang.
When Grandma Wang saw the account book, her eyelids jumped uncontrollably. She held the account in front of Cui and opened it one by one.
When Ms. Cui was young, she was also a good housekeeper. She could read two accounts clearly with just a few glances.
"Is this Xiaowangzhuang's account?"
"Yes!" Li Man'er said: "This is mother's dowry to Zhuangzi. Logically speaking, there is absolutely no reason for me to interfere. It's just that the village has obviously changed to watermelons, with high yields and big profits. The man named Su
But they just say that they are still growing millet and wheat, which is really abominable."
"You, why don't you report this matter to your mother before making a decision, and take out the account book first, it will not look good."
Li Man'er said: "Not only did I take the account book, but I also kidnapped the two brothers Su Hai and Zhuangtou Ge Dazhuang back!"
"Ah?" Ms. Cui was a little dumbfounded, but then she thought again, Li Man'er is no longer what he used to be, how could he act recklessly? There might be something else going on here.
Grandma Wang understood Ms. Cui's thoughts best, and immediately said: "Sister, why did you kidnap this person back? I'm afraid it's hard to explain to my wife."
"Why don't you tie him up? If you don't get him back, something big will happen. Grandma, you don't know, that Su Haigou is so brave. He actually took 70% of the original 60% rent. Not only that, he
They also charge 10% of the hush fee from the farmers, and in the end the tenants can only get 20% of the rent.”
Li Man'er sighed helplessly, "Just like this, I'm not angry. There are so many poor people in the world, how can I care about them? No matter how dark-hearted Su Hai is, he is also his mother's steward and a servant of the Guo family, so why not
It’s not my turn to have an attack. But grandma, these people are doing things in the name of the Hou family! Su Hai did not allow the tenants to go out to sell melons, fearing that they would leak the news. The melons they collected were sold at a high price, but they only gave them to the tenants.
We have food, and all year round, they can't even see a penny. Su Hai is not only lining his own pockets, he is doing evil things in the name of our Tiedanhou Mansion! How far is Xiaowangzhuang from the capital? What if this happened?
If my father's enemies find out, I'm afraid they will make a big fuss."
Li Man'er observed Cui's face as he spoke. Seeing Cui's gnashing of teeth, he suddenly laughed to himself.
"Grandma, since ancient times, three people have become a tiger. Others just open their mouths and spread rumors that our Marquis Mansion uses power to bully others. But this Zhuangzi is my mother's Zhuangzi, and he is also a member of the Guo family. What does this have to do with us? I had no choice but to tie him up.
Those three people, if this matter is not resolved, it will cause a big mess."
Who cares that Zhuangzi belongs to the Guo family? They will only say that the Guo family also borrowed the power of the Li family. In the end, the hat of oppressing the people will eventually fall on the head of the Tiedanhou Mansion.
Mrs. Cui was very angry when she heard that and slammed the table, "Where is the person? Bring me and have a look."
