"Sister, do you think Madam loves you so much?" Yu Xijiao added.
Yu Zhuqing shook his head this time. Even if he stopped judging others with kindness, there would be no Qian family here.
"In that case, eldest sister, there is a problem in your shop." Yu Xijiao said firmly.
Yu Zhuqing didn't say anything. He picked up the account book in front of him and flipped through it. After flipping through a few pages, he stopped and exhaled a long breath: "Third sister, I'll go take a look with you."
"It's best for my eldest sister to think so." Yu Xijiao smiled. Compared to herself, Yu Zhuqing was the legitimate master.
The watery eyes lifted up as if to look at Feng Lanxiu's departure, and his eyebrows frowned slightly. Compared with the things in the store, there was one more urgent thing now.
If there is a follow-up to today's incident, it will inevitably involve the eldest sister. This is what Yu Xijiao is most worried about. I am afraid that things will change within this period of time. I only hope that the young master of the General's Mansion can return to Beijing quickly...
In the study, Yu Ruiwen sat frowning, Feng Lanxiu had gone back, and the study was silent.
The boy stood quietly outside the door, not daring to move. It could be seen that the Marquis was worried, and he had not used much of his lunch just now.
Yu Ruiwen suddenly stood up, and the sound of the chair being pushed alerted the boy outside. The boy hurriedly raised his waist and stood up straight. Yu Ruiwen came out and ordered: "Prepare the carriage to go to Qian Mansion."
"Master Marquis, do you want to prepare two carriages?" the boy said hurriedly.
"Two cars, bring the evil slaves with you." Yu Ruiwen said as he walked forward. The wife named Xi must be brought with her. This matter is not easy to make public now, and this woman cannot be allowed to run behind the carriage.
Aunt Xi was gagged and pulled out and thrown into an ordinary carriage at the back. Yu Ruiwen got into the large carriage in front. The two carriages left the gate of the Hou Mansion and went straight to the Qian Mansion.
When they arrived at the Qian Mansion, Yu Ruiwen got off the carriage first and asked the servant to pull out Grandma Xi from behind, and took the old woman to see Mr. Qian.
Mr. Qian and his wife met Yu Ruiwen together.
Before they could ask questions, Yu Ruiwen had already told the whole story, saying that Grandma Xi opened the side door and the back door and let in a man, Ning and others...
Finally, when Mrs. Yu gave Mrs. Ning and Mrs. Qian a beating with the cane, the faces of Mr. Qian and his wife immediately turned ugly.
The Qian family was not involved in the cause and effect of the incident, but there were traces of the Qian family everywhere, and the final incident of being punished by Mrs. Yu was even more meaningful.
After Yu Ruiwen finished explaining the matter, he said confidently: "I have brought the person, and he is outside now. If you don't believe it, you can interrogate him on the spot."
The smile on Mrs. Qian's always kind face faded, she looked at Mr. Qian and said nothing.
"This matter... the concubine of the Marquis of Zhengyuan has passed." Qian Shilang coughed and said angrily, "She is a concubine of a different residence. How can she have the right to blame a concubine of the marquis."
"Mrs. Mrs. Yu said that she is the elder of the Ning family and the Qian family. If the two people are causing trouble, let alone the Ning family, I am afraid that the Qian family... will also be in trouble." Yu Ruiwen said with a cold face, and he could tell.
I'm in a bad mood, and the smile I used to have is gone.
"What kind of elder is she..." Qian Shilang felt angry.
"Sir, Sir, let's not talk about what kind of elder she is. I originally wanted to deal with this matter as if Zhengyuan Hou Mansion had an ulterior motive." Yu Ruiwen interrupted Qian Shilang rudely.
"You have an ulterior motive?" Qian Shilang's heart skipped a beat, and he had an inexplicable bad feeling.
"The expedition to the Marquis Mansion was related to the assassination of the Prince of Qi. The Prince of Qi also found evidence from the dowry of Lanxuan County Lord. This time they entered our Xuanping Marquis Mansion at night, and I am afraid they also wanted to use our access to Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
Pinghou Mansion, do some things to stir up trouble." Yu Ruiwen said rudely, feeling disgusted with Zhengyuan Hou Mansion.
"This..." Qian Shilang and his wife looked at each other, and their expressions changed drastically.
Mrs. Qian waved her hand, and the servants in the mansion retreated.
Minister Qian lowered his voice: "Marquis Xuanping, this matter... it's not appropriate to talk about it like this."
Whoever gets involved in this kind of thing will be unlucky. Zhengyuanhou Mansion is the most unlucky family now. How dare Xuanpinghou Mansion get involved.
"Master Minister, how else can we explain the people from Zhengyuanhou's house sneaking into my house? Zhengyuanhou also has a back door, why did he come to our house? Is it because they were targeted by Prince Qi's son and have some inconvenience?
." Yu Ruiwen said arrogantly, as if he didn't know what he meant.
Mrs. Qian stretched out her hand and pressed her chest, her voice trembling a little: "Xuan Pinghou, stop talking nonsense, are you... don't want your life?"
"Old madam, it's not that I'm dying, it's that they bullied people too much. They stayed up late at night and came to our house to stir up trouble. I will never let this matter go." Yu Ruiwen said sternly.
"Nonsense, you are really nonsense." Qian Shilang couldn't help scolding, "Is it possible to get involved in this kind of thing?"
Yu Ruiwen frowned and said disapprovingly: "The Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion didn't make it easy for me, and I won't make it easy for them. At worst, the fish will die and the net will be broken. Let's see if they can survive, or if I, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, will be fine."
"Marquis Xuanping, don't be anxious, this matter needs to be discussed in the long term." Seeing that he was impulsive, Mrs. Qian also advised him.
"If Qian really wants to get involved with people from the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, I don't care." Yu Ruiwen didn't listen and became even more angry.
He flicked his sleeves and looked like he was about to walk away.
"Marquis Xuanping, don't worry, there must be some reason behind this matter." Mrs. Qian persuaded her with a bit of courage, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she looked a little more kind.
"Both of you are elders, and there are no outsiders here. I will tell the truth. Qian must be involved in this matter. Ning and a large group of people entered my house through the side door. Ning's nephew
Came in secretly through the back door, now I am the only male master in my house, the others are all women, it is self-evident what they want to do!"
Yu Ruiwen's tone was solemn, and it was clear that his words were filled with accusations.
After Mr. Qian and his wife looked at each other, Mrs. Qian sighed: "My daughter has a soft ear, and sometimes she does things impulsively, but if she has any really bad intentions, she cannot do it."
There is only one man who is a virtuous son-in-law. If something really happens, she and Xi'er will not be fine either. Even if she doesn't take care of herself, she will definitely take care of Xi'er."
This makes sense and sounds reasonable.
Yu Ruiwen fell silent, and then continued to insist: "This matter must be related to the Qian family."
"I also think this matter has something to do with my daughter. I am afraid that my daughter has been deceived. Ning has been friends with my daughter since she was a child. They are cousins and were very close before they were married.
After getting married, we are members of the same clan, so we are a little closer than ordinary people, but the Ning family..."
Mrs. Qian shook her head when she said this: "Ning has been scheming since she was a child. She often deceived my daughter when she was young. Whenever my daughter has any good things, she will definitely come and deceive some of them. I also discovered at that time
I just feel that these are not worth anything, they are just gold and silver jewelry, and since they are friends, they are nothing."
"I told you then that your daughter should have less contact with her," Qian Shilang reprimanded.
Mrs. Qian's eyes were slightly red: "At that time, I just thought it was a trivial matter for girls, but now...now...if I had known now, I would never let her have a good relationship with Ning."
"Marquis Xuanping, let's end this matter here! The matter between the Ning family and the Marquis Zhengyuan Mansion involves Prince Qi. No one will benefit from getting involved in this kind of thing. My daughter has learned a lesson this time.
Let’s see if she dares to make friends with Ning next time and whether she will listen to Ning’s words.”
Minister Qian was very close to Yu Ruiwen, and in just a few words he had already blamed the whole thing on Ning.
As the couple talked back and forth, Yu Ruiwen's anger subsided a lot, and he no longer looked as stiff-necked, dissatisfied, and angry as before.
"What should I do about that woman named Xi?" Yu Ruiwen said angrily.
"Go ahead and buy it!" Mrs. Qian said after a moment of silence.
"Death with a stick!" Yu Ruiwen did not agree, "For such a big thing, even her master was punished by a stick. How can she be justified as a slave and still be fine? Besides, if some words are spread, it will be easy to say or not!"
"Then kill him with a cane." After a pause, Mrs. Qian nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then according to the wishes of my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will kill you with a cane when I get back." Yu Ruiwen bowed his hands to the two old couples above.
"Will you kill her with a stick after you return?" Qian Shilang glanced at his old wife and asked hurriedly.
"There are so many troubles coming and going, just stay in our house, so as not to let the truth slip." Mrs. Qian also advised.
"It's okay, it's just a slave. Who would criticize our Xuanping Marquis Mansion?" Yu Ruiwen shook his hand indifferently, "I just brought him here for the father-in-law and mother-in-law to interrogate. Since the father-in-law and mother-in-law are not willing to ask, then
If you go back and kill him with a stick, he will definitely be a servant of our house."
The last sentence left Mr. Qian and his wife speechless.
The two had no choice but to agree.
Now that the matter has been resolved, Yu Ruiwen didn't sit there for long and said goodbye.
"Marquis Xuanping, wait a moment." Mrs. Qian stopped Yu Ruiwen, "I'll come to your house to check on you later, okay?"
"It would be good if the old lady has some free time." Yu Ruiwen agreed wholeheartedly.
"Even if I don't have time anymore, I still have to come over and see how the good life ended up like this." Mrs. Qian sighed, stood up and took a trembling step. Mr. Qian hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her.
"Old Madam!" Yu Ruiwen also stretched out his hand.
"Marquis Xuanping, my daughter is really disappointing. It would be good to teach her a lesson this time. I just hope that Marquis Xuanping can give her a chance to repent for the sake of our old couple. Xi'er still has
"Young man, it's the time to discuss marriage, so you can't make any mistakes." Mrs. Qian warned her in a serious tone.
"Don't worry, madam, I understand." Yu Ruiwen replied irritably and casually, saying goodbye to the old couple, and then left with Nanny Xi.
When they returned to the Hou Mansion, they had people pick up Nanny Xi and start beating her. Many of the servants in the manor were driven over to watch the execution.
In the past, the most powerful housekeeper around Madam, the nanny, was about to be killed with a stick. The servants in the mansion were panicked, feeling that the situation in the Hou Mansion was about to change.
"Father!" Yu Yuxi came from behind the crowd and saluted Yu Ruiwen gracefully.
