Chapter 201 Spit out the stolen dowry (5)
Aunt Ma's father saved the King of Luoyang. If he enters the capital and is granted the title and stays in the capital as an official, there is a great possibility that he will be promoted, and he may be able to surpass his own father. The position of the main wife is none other than her.

No, I must think of a way, and I must never let this happen. The position of Mrs. Zhongyonghou can only be mine!
"Mother... don't go, mother, I will be frozen..." Murong Lin cried and chased Aunt Zhang, but was stopped by the rough envoys at the entrance of the Buddhist hall. Going further: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

As the end of the new year approaches, all high-ranking households will summarize their accounts for the year, and Zhongyonghou's Mansion is no exception.

Under normal circumstances, the dowry of a concubine, in addition to her own children, will also be distributed to the sons and daughters of the concubine, but Xie Zixin is dead, and there will be another wife in the Hou Mansion, so her dowry will no longer be Passively used, but all left to her only blood in the world, Murong Yu.

Murong Yu was still young, and the people who were in charge of the inner house of the Hou Mansion were also in charge of the shop where her mother was dowry. It could also be said that Aunt Zhang was in charge of the dowry that Xie Zixin left for Murong Yu.

During Chinese New Year in the past, Aunt Zhang would send all the accounts to Yanyu Pavilion for Murong Yu to have a look. Murong Yu is only in his teens and has lived in the inner house for a long time.

Now, although the people in charge of the Hou's Mansion have changed, the Hou's Mansion is also a well-known family, and the money is too much to spend. The old lady is not greedy for Xie Zixin's shop, so as usual, she asked Chai Momo to bring a year's account books to Yanyu Pavilion Give Murong Yu a look.

Looking at the piles of account books, Murong Yu realized that there were more than ten shops that his mother married as a dowry, including gold shops, silk shops, and ready-made clothing shops. For nothing else, just because the accounts were wrong. As far as the two shops she had seen, there were several accounts that were wrong, and each of them lost tens of thousands of taels of silver...

Qin'er walked into the inner room with the freshly brewed tea. Murong Yu flipped through the account book in his hand and ordered, "Qin'er, go to school and tell Mr. Lu that I'm busy, so I won't go to class today..."

Qin'er picked up the teapot and poured tea, and the faint tea immediately lingered in the room: "Mr. Lu said he was not feeling well, so he didn't come to school."

Murong Yu's movements paused slightly, Lu Haowen's matter became more and more troublesome, everything that happened last night made the incident even more confusing, the guards protecting him should be the prince's people, but what is it that wants to kill him people?How dare you go against the prince...

Although the crown prince can't be said to cover the sky with one hand in Qingsong, his power is not small. His people protect Lu Haowen, and Lu Haowen should not have any accidents. However, Mr. Lu is injured like that, and he really needs to rest and recuperate: "Take 20 taels Ask the boy to give the silver to Mr. Lu, saying that it will be Chinese New Year, and Lord Hou will reward you."

"Yes!" Qin'er agreed, and quickly went to tell people.

Murong Yu closed the account book in his hand, and a coldness flashed in his eyes. Although his mother left him a lot of dowry, he didn't care about the money, but he couldn't afford it for nothing. Aunt Zhang: "Qin'er, take the account book and follow me to Songshou Hall."

Aunt Zhang has swallowed a lot of her own dowry in the past three years, and she has enough glory, it's time for her to spit it out and return it to the original owner.

As the new year is approaching, the Songshou Hall is very lively, full of laughter and laughter.

The curtain opened, and Murong Yu walked into the inner room. Apart from Murong Lin who was kneeling in the Buddhist hall, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Ma, and Murong Li were all there. They smiled crookedly, and the old lady was also smiling. Obviously, the conversation just now was very pleasant. : "Yu'er, I was about to order someone to call you. It's almost Chinese New Year, and everyone is making some clothes. This is a tailor for a silk shop. Everyone has measured the size, and you are the only one missing."

Murong Yu glanced at Aunt Zhang lightly, and smiled lightly: "Then I came at the right time!"

The silk and satin shop is under the name of the Hou Mansion, that is, the shop where the old lady married as a dowry. During festivals, or when the seasons change, they will make a few sets of new clothes for the people of the Hou Mansion according to their quota.

After measuring the size, choosing the color and style, the tailor carefully recorded it, and set a completion time, took the reward, and left with gratitude.

Murong Yu waved his hand, Qin'er understood it, and put a large pile of account books on the round table in the room: "Grandma, I'm here today to ask for something."

Aunt Zhang's eyelids jumped suddenly, and an ominous premonition rose in her heart.

"What can make Yu'er 'beg' me to be a grandmother." The old lady joked with a smile.

Murong Yu smiled slightly: "It's not a big deal. There seems to be something wrong with the outgoing and incoming data in these account books. I would like to ask grandma for permission to call the shopkeepers here to ask."

The women of the Hou's mansion lived in the inner house for a long time, and the shopkeepers of the shops were outsiders. Unless there were special circumstances, they were not allowed to visit the mansion at will. What's more, these shops were managed by the old lady. Murong Yu had to first see the shopkeepers With the consent of the old lady.

Aunt Zhang was startled, and her eyes flickered unnaturally: "Sister Xin's shop has been looked after by the shopkeepers, and the old lady takes care of it. How could the books be wrong?" Implications, Murong Yu called the shopkeepers to come Come, I suspect that the old lady has tampered with it.

The smile on the old lady's face froze slightly: "Is there really a problem with the account book?" I have been in charge of the Hou Mansion for most of my life, and I have never had any problems. I look at the account books of Zixin Shop every month, and I really don't see anything wrong.

Aunt Zhang is amazing, she actually took the opportunity to provoke the relationship between her and the old lady, but unfortunately, she can only be regarded as a clown in front of him now!
The expression on Murong Yu's beautiful face remained unchanged, and a stern look flashed in her beautiful eyes: "Grandmother took over the management of the shop four months ago, but the account book that went wrong was ten months ago. The owner of the shop must be Aunt Zhang!" After the old lady took over the Hou Mansion, she checked the account books at the end of every month, but all she looked at was the current month's account books, and she had never read the previous account books.

"Miss suspects that I have tampered with it." Aunt Zhang said in surprise, as if she had been greatly wronged: "After Sister Xin passed away, I have been doing my best to take care of the shop, and I have never had any selfish intentions... "Didn't Murong Yu never read the account books before?Why has she changed so much this year...
