Chapter 59

The face of Manager Bai who was removing the seam seal immediately turned dark, and Mama Sun hurried over to help Jinniang, who patted her body and said to Mama Sun: "What's in this box? It's as light as a feather. It weighs nothing at all. nor?"

Mama Sun's face also became serious, she went to the box and pushed it, feeling that it was empty at all, she looked at Manager Bai, who was sweating, but didn't say anything, just walked out.

"Chairman, please open the box. I want to have a look. Could it be that Prince Jane's mansion sent an empty box as a gift?" Jin Niang said calmly.

The chief manager paused, turned his head, and said to Jinniang with a dejected expression: "Fourth Miss, this old slave is going to invite the old lady right now, this old slave... has been working for the Sun family all his life, but when he is old, he commits a crime." This matter has come to the fore, it's really... really..." He looked full of shame.

"You are responsible for this, but you didn't do it. You just might know about it, right." Jinniang smiled instead of anger, "There are people outside, just send a little girl to invite them. Curry, I'm afraid it's not just this box of things."

"Boss Bai, how...how can you be so confused." Mama Sun couldn't bear it. She is an old man in the house. Boss Bai has always been trusted by the old man and the old lady. He absolutely dare not take the fourth girl's dowry. Even if he had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to covet Miss Master's dowry like this. I'm afraid... he was forced by someone.

Manager Bai stomped his feet and staggered out.

Mama Sun and Jinniang checked in the house, and sure enough there were still three boxes that were empty. When they opened the lid, they were empty inside. They took the gift list to check, and found that the missing boxes were the few boxes of East Pearl and White Jade, and they sent them over. The gold and silver jewelry are also gone.

Mama Sun's face turned pale. If Director Bai really got away with such a large amount of property with the cooperation of outsiders, there would be nothing left.

Not long after, the old lady sent someone to come, saying that she asked Mama Sun to lock the warehouse door and take the fourth girl to the Da Furen's courtyard.

It was less than half an hour before Li Jinniang greeted the eldest lady. The old lady asked the second lady to support her, and called seven or eight rough envoys, and went straight to the eldest lady's room.

The eldest lady was in the back room to take care of the daily affairs of the mansion, but she was not in the room, Hongmei and Ziying were directing people to exchange things, when suddenly she saw the old lady bringing a lot of people in, one and two were frightened Stupid, it took me a long time to remember to salute.

The old lady didn't talk too much, and went directly to the things they were sorting out. Sure enough, the boxes containing the pearls and jades had the mark of Prince Jane's Mansion. Hongmei wanted to explain something, but the old lady sneered, "Your wife is really It’s a big deal, I’ve brought the best, but it’s actually just such an idea, but she’s also the daughter of a dignified grand master, and her eyelids are too shallow.”

The eldest lady had already been reported by someone, and when she hurried into the room, she happened to hear the old lady say that, after all, it was not a glorious thing, no matter how tough she was on weekdays, she immediately blushed.

The old lady didn't bother to get annoyed when she saw that the master was coming, so she asked the second lady to help her sit in the main hall, looked at the eldest lady with a half-smile, and didn't speak.

Everyone in the room looked at the eldest lady with all kinds of eyes, some with contempt, some with fear of being angered, some with doubts... The eldest lady felt as if she wanted to find a hole in the ground to burrow into, and she felt ashamed for a while.

What the old lady said is right, she has grown up in rich clothes and fine food since she was a child, and I have never seen such a good thing before, so why would I listen to the big girl, and even... greedy for such a thing, ashamed Dead man, but... so what if you do it, if someone gives you a gift, that thing belongs to your own mansion, so you have to distribute it by yourself, but it's just...

When Jinniang and Mama Sun entered, they happened to see the eldest lady standing awkwardly by the gate, her face flushed and then white. When she saw Jinniang coming in, she opened her mouth. He hesitated to speak again.

Jinniang walked past her and stood in front of the old lady. The elders were all there. Even if she was the one who suffered, she couldn't help but speak first, so she kept silent obediently, waiting for the old lady to speak.

"How many boxes are missing?" The old lady sipped her tea and asked Mama Sun.

"Four boxes, the servants have checked the list of gifts, and all the big gifts are gone." Mother Sun bowed and replied.

"Daughter-in-law, what do you say, did you return the things, or..." The old lady picked up the tea casually, Hongxiu hurried over to pick it up, and helped her put it on the table, her tone was very calm, and she couldn't hear the slightest word anger.

After such a while, the madam's panic and fear at the beginning passed, but now she calmed down after hearing the old lady's question, walked in slowly from the door, and sat down under the old lady. .

The old lady raised her left eyebrow slightly, her eyes were no longer as calm as before, she looked at the eldest lady sharply, her eyes were as cold as frost.

The eldest lady's eyes flickered slightly. The seemingly weak old lady could always give her an invisible pressure. She was always a little flustered in front of the old lady. What's more, what happened this time really lacked confidence... But She is used to being arrogant, never admitting mistakes is her habit, not to mention, she is the granddaughter of the Sun family, and she didn't steal anything and go back to her mother's house?

"Mother, how did you say that, my daughter-in-law doesn't understand what you mean." The eldest lady tried to slow down her tone, so as to calm down her sense of being wronged.

"Don't understand? Hmph, daughter-in-law, you are also a smart person, so why bother to say something so clearly, here, a room full of people, in front of the younger generation, I still want to give you some dignity." The old lady took a deep breath. In one breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said.

"Mother would want to save face for her daughter-in-law? Then the daughter-in-law will thank you very much, but, if you promote a lowly servant girl to be on an equal footing with your daughter-in-law, what kind of dignity is that?" The eldest lady was not angry, but her tone was tit-for-tat .

As soon as the second lady heard the words, she pointed at herself again, her eye circles turned red, and the tears were about to drip. She glanced at the old lady and said, "Mother... They are all a family, and it is also good to give good things to the eldest girl." Can……"

"Shut up, you are always so cowardly, how are you going to protect Brother Xuan?" The old lady hastily stopped the second lady's words, and poked her finger on the forehead of the second lady hating iron.
