Qiao Yuning sat aside and listened to this. Although she didn't know what the situation was, she could tell that it was a serious matter.
"Since more than half a month ago, the income from the shop has not been delivered, my men have been asking there. At first, the shopkeepers said that the account books were withheld by the government."
The Zhao family used to be Aunt Pei's maid, and the married Zhao Quan was also secretly promoted by Aunt Pei. Naturally, she was tied to the same boat as Aunt Pei, and now she was full of worries.
Aunt Pei frowned and said, "After the account books were sent back last time, didn't you say that someone was watching?"
"Someone is watching, but I can't tell who it is. The shopkeepers don't dare to take risks, and my men don't dare to be too showy. Who would have thought that just now, the person has disappeared, but there is a new shopkeeper."
"New shopkeeper?" The expression on Aunt Pei's face was even more ugly, "How is that possible?"
"I'm sure it's true. My man has been there for two days. The new shopkeeper is very familiar with it and everything in the shop is still in order. My man bribed a little girl to buy raw silk and asked about the old shopkeeper.
, the clerk said that the boss has made a new appointment, and the original shopkeeper has gone to another shop."
Aunt Pei immediately fell into her chair and was transferred away by her employer. Doesn't that mean she was discovered?
If one family was like this, she might not think so. If three families changed people at the same time, how could she not panic?
No one knew that she had any contact with the shopkeepers of these three shops. When she assisted Xu's housekeeper, she had never dealt with them alone, let alone the management of those shops.
But she taught them how to keep accounts, and the price difference they got out was only half of it. Over the years, she had made a lot of profits from it.
Mrs. Xu is a generous person, and if she has her trust, she will not doubt him casually.
Therefore, over the years, the mother and daughter have lived so luxuriously in food and clothing, and Mrs. Xu has never asked a question.
However, Qiao Weisheng and the old lady just assumed that they were all given by the Xu family, and would not pursue any further investigation.
at the moment……
The only possibility is Qiao Yuyan. How did she find out? Did she know all the tricks in it?
How will she deal with herself?
Seeing her biological mother's pale face, Qiao Yuning became nervous, "Mom...our money...all came from those three shops, right?"
Seeing the worry on her daughter's young and pretty face, Aunt Pei nodded helplessly, "Otherwise, how can you dress better than those other girls outside? Although my wife dotes on you, what she gives you is nothing compared to
Girls from other families are almost the same."
Qiao Yuning knew this very well, otherwise she wouldn't have felt that she couldn't afford the set of two hundred taels of jewelry she was interested in. "Then... how much money did you get from these three shops in total?"
Aunt Pei was upset at the moment and didn't know what to do for a while. When her daughter asked, she felt a sense of support, so she didn't deliberately hide it and muttered: "Three..."
"Three thousand?" Qiao Yuning knew it was impossible after she said it, and her eyes widened immediately, "Thirty thousand?"
Aunt Pei shed tears and nodded, but she was upset. She saw that her daughter was also upset, and she slowly calmed down.
After letting the Zhao family go out first, he turned around and said to Qiao Yuning: "Sister Ning, don't worry about this matter for now. You just need to take care of tomorrow's affairs. If you can marry into the Wen family, it won't matter to me."
None!"
Qiao Yuning looked at her biological mother's face. Recently, she had become almost visibly haggard.
It's all because of Qiao Yuyan. Ever since Qiao Yuyan came back, they have hardly had a good life.
Not only did everyone in the house no longer respect her, but even her father no longer loved her as he used to, and he threw himself at the Furong Pavilion as soon as he returned home.
Right now, even the lives of the two of them are about to be cut off!
The aunt can only count on her, and she must give it a try! As long as she can become the fourth grandma of the Wen family, no matter who she is, she must give her birth mother some respect. Is it possible that it is not enough for the Wen family to marry a concubine?
Would someone marry a concubine whose biological mother is known as a thief?
At the moment, Qiyun Pavilion was gloomy and she couldn't care about it. Her aunt was right. Tomorrow's affairs at the Xiangguo Temple were obviously more important. She had to make herself appear in front of Wen Liang in the best condition.
They had already chosen their clothes, tried on what hair accessories they would wear tomorrow, and what kind of outfits they would wear. However, Tinghe came over to tell them that the set of jewelry had been bought because it was past the agreed time.
Before it appeared, someone else took a fancy to it, so the shopkeeper sold it directly.
Qiao Yuning was angry, but there was nothing she could do. What's more, she was afraid that her aunt was also short of money. Two hundred taels could not be said to be small money to them now.
After sending the maid to bring over the dowry box, Qiao Yuning endured her anger and searched for suitable jewelry in the jewelry box again, but she couldn't find any one that was as satisfactory as that set.
Finally, I chose a set of Hetian jade hairpins, plus Yingluo and forbidden steps of the same color. It was not bad, but it didn’t look as noble as that set.
After choosing the things, I thought of another thing, so I quickly waved to the maid and whispered a few words carefully.
At night, I looked in the mirror and carefully considered my body shape, demeanor, and demeanor. Then I felt a little at ease. I took a bath with essential oil and then fell asleep with peace of mind.
When I went out the next day, I arrived at Chuihua Gate and saw Qiao Yuyan walking over with the old lady on her arm.
Today she was wearing a Xiangfei-colored double-breasted short coat and a pine-colored silk skirt. Her hair was carefully tied into a high bun, revealing her slender jade-like neck.
The gourd earrings with carved coral on her ears were dotted with orange-red lipstick, making her look even more delicate than a flower, with her skin as white as snow.
There is a string of three or four emerald green jingle bracelets on the left wrist, which will make a crisp sound when they collide.
Qiao Yuning felt uncomfortable because such good green was turned into a jingle bracelet! Only Qiao Yuyan dared to waste things like this!
But then I thought about it, Wen Liang is a typical scholar, and he doesn't like such gorgeous and flamboyant clothes. The richer he is, the more he dislikes her, and he feels better.
"Why hasn't Sister Rong arrived yet?" The old lady was helped by Qiao Yuyan to the carriage. When she took a quick look, she found that someone was missing.
While he was talking, Qiao Yurong hurried over, holding the maid's hand, "Come on, come on, I'm here."
She wore a light apricot-colored long double-breasted coat, a lake green skirt with thread underneath, and a bun with her hair down, looking very refreshing.
The most eye-catching thing is the whole set of pink southern pearl jewelry on her body. The young girl looks even more lovely under the pink pearl print.
It's just a pity that such a delicate dress is completely different from her character. No, it's revealed as soon as she opens her mouth.
The old lady smiled when she saw her panting, "Is there someone chasing you from behind?"
Qiao Yuyan also smiled, "Although it's later than us, it's not too late."
Suddenly, he realized that Qiao Yuning, who always liked to be close to Qiao Yurong, didn't speak today. When he turned around, he realized that her eyes were falling on Qiao Yurong's jewelry.
"The outfit Rong Yatou is wearing today is really nice. It suits you very well. Where did you buy this outfit? It looks very nice." The old lady didn't talk much on weekdays. She looked at the colorful beads on her body and spoke.
Liked it.
Qiao Yurong was actually still thinking about what happened that day, and didn't really want to take care of her. But now that everyone was here, it was hard to criticize others like this, so she smiled lightly and said, "This is a gift from my eldest sister.
I think it looks good too.”
Qiao Yuning turned to look at Qiao Yuyan, was it her who gave it to her?!
