After rebirth, the prince will fight in the house for me

Qu Yunchu didn't have the intention to care about Lu Boyong's thoughts. Seeing that the chaos in the courtyard had calmed down, she smiled and handed the package in her hand to Keyan, and said: "From today on, every room in the house will be charged for After being audited by Feng Yage, it will be uniformly deployed by Feng Yage."

Just as he finished speaking, Lu Junwan came in aggressively.

Behind her were Jiang Yunching and several servants.

Jiang Yunching held a heavy package in his hands, and several servants were escorting a man who had been beaten to a bruised nose and face.

When he arrived in front of Qu Yunchu and Lu Boyong, Lu Junwan angrily threw the package in Lu Yunqing's arms to the ground, spread it out and saw that it was filled with gold, silver and jade.

"Third uncle, you really know how to plan for a rainy day. Are you planning to evacuate the entire mansion and leave the Lu family to live happily alone?"

Lu Junwan's eyes were full of anger, staring at Lu Boyong closely.

Lu Boyong just glanced at the boy being escorted, and his expression immediately darkened.

"Sanniang, don't get me wrong. I'm all alone now. I just want to pawn some things in exchange for some charcoal."

He hurriedly explained to Lu Junwan with a livid face.

"What a lonely person."

Lu Junwan was already very angry: "The Lu family is in such a situation right now, the young men still don't know how to donate money and materials to help the Lu family tide over the difficulties together. As the Lu family, you have always been deeply favored by my eldest family. At this time Not only did they transfer the property in the house, they also cruelly wanted to drive the elderly people out of the house."

After saying that, he took the thick account book from Jiang Yunqing's hand and said sternly: "These tens of thousands of taels of silver are not enough to buy charcoal for the winter? I would like to know what Uncle San is planning to burn in the courtyard. Such charcoal requires so much silver?"

"I……"

Lu Boyong never thought that the people he sent out would be caught by Sanniang due to his being so cautious. He didn't know what to say for a while.

Qu Yunchu took the account book in Sanniang's hand and looked through it carefully, and found that Lu Boyong had transferred nearly 2 taels of silver in just over a month.

This amount of money was not a big deal during the Lu family's heyday, but to the Lu family today, it is not a small amount of money.

"The third uncle is really clever. While forcing me to lay off the servants in the house, he also transferred the money from the house. I don't know how the third uncle can be considerate of me, the wife of the house."

Qu Yunchu was dumbfounded. Each of the Lu family members was more interesting than the last.

"Sanniang, Wen Qian's wife, I am all alone now, with no one around me. I am also worried that the Lu family will really fall into decline and I will be alone and have no one to rely on, so I want to leave a way out for myself."

Lu Boyong said with tears in his eyes and full of sadness.

Qu Yunchu felt a chill in his heart when he heard this: "As a member of the Lu family, Third Uncle knows how to plan an escape for himself. Could it be that the lives of the hundreds of people in the courtyard are not worth mentioning and they all deserve to die?"

All the servants in the courtyard were filled with indignation at this time, and they wished they could just rush forward and cut Lu Boyong alive.

Looking at the angry looks cast around him, Lu Boyong was so frightened that the hair on his body stood up, and he hurriedly begged for mercy:
"Everyone, I am confused for a moment, but I am by no means a ruthless and unjust person. If you want to leave the Lu family, I am willing to use all my belongings to help you pay for it..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Rui suddenly led Lu Boting, Lu Wenchi and his son in.

"No need."

Jiang Rui's heart ached like a knife, and she walked slowly and slowly to Lu Boyong's side. After casually looking at the gold, silver and jade articles scattered on the ground, her heart became even colder.

"Third brother, you have really set a good example for the descendants of the Lu family."

Jiang Rui glared at him, the anger in his heart boiling violently.

"Sister-in-law."

Lu Boyong felt guilty and was extremely frightened.

"Don't call me sister-in-law."

Jiang Rui sighed heavily: "I really can't afford it." Since her husband's death, she has always treated her second-brother and third-brother as her own brothers. She also trusts them the most, so she doesn't treat her second-brother and third-brother. The rooms are divided.

But at a critical moment, Lao San actually repaid himself in this way.

"Sister-in-law."

Lu Boyong knelt down and cried in a choked voice: "I know I am guilty, but I feel really uneasy. It has been more than a month since Wen Qian and Wen Jing went out, and there is still no news back. Hundreds of our Lu family have Thousands of taels of cloth and brocade are all backlogged in the warehouse, and the money in the house has been emptied. Now that I no longer have the status of an imperial merchant, I am really worried that the Lu family will collapse, and by then they will not even be able to collect the money to support themselves in old age. "

"So you want to cut off everyone's livelihood?"

Jiang Rui said angrily.

Lu Boyong knew he was in the wrong and lowered his head, speechless.

"That's it, that's it."

Jiang Rui waved his hands with a lonely look on his face: "Since your heart is no longer with the Lu family, just leave. I, the Lu family, will treat you as a person without a trace."

"Sister-in-law."

Lu Boyong was unwilling to leave just now.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the Lu family is really defeated, at least he should get some share of the family property. He shouldn't just use these 2 taels of silver to send someone away.

"Second brother."

Seeing that Jiang Rui's livid face was indifferent to his pleas, Lu Boyong had no choice but to turn his attention to Lu Boting.

"Second brother, please advise my sister-in-law. I am willing to take back all the properties of the external office and hand them over to my nephew-in-law and Sanniang."

Lu Boting was also extremely disappointed and would not be willing to intercede for him.

Lu Boyong saw the hard-heartedness of the second brother and started to sneer: "Second brother, don't think that I don't know those things about you."

Lu Boting's face tightened and he hurriedly scolded: "Third brother, what are you talking about?"

"After the chaos in the house, the Nanyuan warehouse was looted. The 10 taels of silver in it are still missing. Could it be that the second brother really wanted to secretly embezzle that money?"

Lu Boyong said with a half-smile.

"The 10 taels of silver in Nanyuan's warehouse?"

Even Lu Wenchi was surprised by this.

He looked at Lu Boting and asked, "Father, didn't you say that the silver in Nanyuan's warehouse was looted by the rebels?"

Lu Boting hesitated and was about to explain, when Lu Boyong added: "Also, not long after Yan Chao took over as the head of the family, the patterns and samples of the fabrics produced by the Yanyang Weaving Bureau were prepared by Wen Qian in advance and were originally confidential. Why did the Song family produce the same fabric early and the second brother thought he could hide it from everyone?"

"Third brother, what are you talking about?"

Jiang Rui also felt something strange. The Lu family's weaving business had always been the best in the entire Dayue Dynasty, but it was overtaken by the Song family in such a short period of time. This was no accident.

Glancing at Lu Boting with a stern look, Jiang Ruigu stared and said loudly: "Third brother, please speak clearly."

At this moment, Lu Boyong didn't want to hide it anymore for his second son, and reminded loudly: "Sister-in-law, this matter is easy to investigate. There are thousands of acres of fertile land in the western suburbs of Tanzhou. You only need to send someone to check the current owner of the field and you will know everything. .”

"Tanzhou West, isn't that the Song family's territory?"

Qu Yunchu roughly understood that it was no wonder that the Lu family's weaving business was overtaken by the Song family. It turned out that there was an insider.
