Miantang couldn't figure out what ledger it was, but she said intuitively, "Don't report it to your son, I will sort out the ledger..."

    Next, she buried her head in front of the table and began to re-arrange the accounts one by one. For some reason, Miantang knew that she was making a fake account while turning the account short, and the mountain of silver suddenly turned into countless trickles and was distributed from the general ledger...

    And then, she watched the carriages pass by in front of her. Although she could not see the items in the boxes, she also knew that the carriages contained boxes of silver and silver tickets. …

    When Miantang woke up with a splitting headache, in addition to feeling a little tired from the busy dream, she also felt that the dream was too absurd. Even if she smashed and sold all the shops of her husband's family, how could there be so much money? Moreover, she is also like a corrupt official with fake accounts and greedy ink... Could it be that after listening to the thief's words, she was confused for a while and had a messy dream?

    However, the dream seems too real, making people unable to turn out in a trance...

    So she opened her eyes and stared blankly at the beam.

    "You're awake, do you want to drink some water?"

    Cui Xingzhou, who had been sitting beside him, put down his book and asked.

    At this time, the night has turned dark, and the candlelight on the table is like beans, emitting a faint light.

    Miantang turned her head to look at him weakly, and was in a trance for a while, as if she had returned to the time when she was waking up from a serious illness, looking at her husband with an endless strange feeling. She tried to get up, but she couldn't exert her strength. She only asked weakly, "How did I faint?"

    Cui Xingzhou said calmly: "The thief who was knocked unconscious by you woke up and attacked you... How do you feel? Do you remember anything?"

    Miantang looked at her husband's handsome and elegant face, her mind moved slightly, and she felt too suspicious, why did she suddenly want to ask if her husband knocked her unconscious?

    Things like this are absurd to think about, so she swallowed it and didn’t say it, but asked in a hoarse voice: “Here’s a terrible headache... Who are those people, why are they so bold? Do you care about me asking for money?"

    Listening to her question, Cui Xingzhou remembered the report from the dark guard who had just interrogated the prisoner.

    Those people turned out to be ruthless characters, nine out of ten gritted their teeth, but one was served by a soldering iron and stick, and finally spoke the truth.

    According to them, when Liu Miantang ran away from Yangshan, she personally made empty accounts and took away a large amount of money from the cottage. Because the accounts are kept leak-proof, and the cottage industries are all over the place, and the accounts are filed only once in the middle of the year, so no one has discovered it before.

    Only this time, a woman named Yunniang who took over from her to collect the bills discovered the mistake, so they ordered them to go down the mountain to find Liu Miantang.

    When the dark guard wanted to ask who Yunniang was, where did that young master come from, and why Liu Miantang had access to this large account, the gangster said with a hoarse voice: " Our son is..."

     Before he finished speaking, another dying gangster suddenly raised his head and spit out a hidden poisonous needle from his mouth, nailing the one who confessed. Next, the rest After a few glances at each other, they bit their tongues and committed suicide.

    The Dark Guards did not expect that a group of mountain bandits would be as determined as well-trained dead men. He was also caught off guard, and suddenly lost his life.

    Cui Xingzhou listened to the report of the dark guard with a calm face. It sort of sorts it out.

    That Lu Wen is really weird, he even has the habit of letting his woman manage the accounts. What is even more terrifying is that this group of bandits actually owns huge assets, and there are industries in various places... It seems that their ambitions are not small, how could they be so obedient to recruit security?

    What kind of origin did Lu Wen come from?

    As for Liu Miantang, she took away a lot of money. Cui Xingzhou had no doubt that according to Liu Miantang's current performance, she did have such courage. It's no wonder that the tendons were broken at the beginning...

    Only now, Liu Miantang doesn't remember what happened in the bandit's den at all, but those bandits don't know that if they catch Liu Miantang, it is conceivable that her fate will be worse than life. die.

    Since Lu Wenzhao was settled, Cui Xingzhou has always wanted to evacuate the house on North Street. It's just that I was tired for a while, and I thought about looking at the situation again, but I didn't expect it to lead to such a shocking secret.

    It seems that this Beijie mansion can't be revoked, let's step up the guard, continue fishing, and see if we can find out the details of that Mr. Ziyu and that Yunniang that the gangsters said.

    More importantly, he had to figure out what role Liu Miantang played in the Yangshan Mountain!

    …

    I don't know why, Miantang found that since the time when she was out of the street and encountered a gangster blocking the road, her husband's time to go home suddenly increased.

    Except for half a day at noon, usually after lunch, I don't go out in the afternoon, play chess and read books with her, so relaxing! A tired and lazy chess study, returned to the house.

    Only many times, he looked at her with bright eyes, which seemed to be more probing.

    Although it is good for her husband to be at home, Miantang always asks him why.

    When asked about him, Cui Xingzhou said lightly: "I've been learning for so long, but my chess skills are no better than yours, so I still don't learn."

    My virtuous wife, Miantang, was extremely shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that she had discouraged her husband's enthusiasm for learning chess. But she also wondered: "I didn't know how to play chess before. Does your husband know who I learned from?"

    Cui Xingzhou just finished a game with her, and looked at her while putting away the chess pieces, the corner of his mouth was slightly cold, and he said casually: "I don't know, maybe he learned it from Mr. Ziyu..."

    Miantang thought about the inexplicable familiarity she had when she watched that son Ziyu play chess, and couldn't help but think that what her husband said might be true. What did she think at the beginning, how could she hang out with a man who was not her husband while her husband was away? This is how many games of chess it takes to practice chess!

    This time, the elegance of playing chess is gone. Miantang made up for the dead sheep, grabbed the clothes in the broken basket, and gestured towards Cui Jiu.

    Summer is coming to an end, and when the weather turns cooler, it’s time for your husband to add shirts. Coats are naturally bought to fit the body. But the inner shirt is always made by the lady, and it is only considerate to wear it.

    Because of a serious illness, she completely forgot how to be a wife.

      Husband tore the cloth and Tim's underwear.

    Because Mo Ru brought back a box of clothes from her husband, Miantang found one of Cui Jiu's previous inner shirts, cut the fabric as it was, and sewed finely every day, so hard In a few days, something finally came out.

    Cui Xingzhou stood up and let Miantang gesture back and forth with the cloth on him.

    Although Miantang's stature is taller than Jiangnan women, compared with his stalwart height, he looks like a bird.

    Different from the neat and capable in the business field, this lady Liu is very clumsy in needlework! The sleeves alone have been changed three or four times...

    He lowered his eyes and looked down at Miantang slightly. She frowned slightly at first, and after carefully measuring her waistline, she was very satisfied, her red lips parted slightly, and she smiled brightly.

    But when such an intoxicating smile fell into Cui Xingzhou's eyes, it was even more unpleasant.

    These days, he has been thinking about whether this woman has always been wronged and strives for perfection by the side of that son Ziyu, or whether she has developed a relationship with that Ziyu for a long time. Woolen cloth?

     

    However, thinking that later, this woman was so daring to take the money of the thief, Cui Xingzhou slightly forgave Miantang.

    At the very least, she knows that she will find her way back, and she should not be in the company of those anti-thieves and rogues.

    It's just so much money, how dare she? He has been a fake couple with her for so long, but he can feel that she is a person. Although she loves money, she is definitely not a greedy person. Besides, how could she, a weak woman, be greedy for such a large amount of money?

    And no one had ever looked for her until that Ziyu found out that she was still alive.

    Thinking of the gangster talking about the woman named "Yunniang", Cui Xingzhou snorted coldly.

     

     

    Similar to such intriguing and vicious women, his father's house is full of troubles. Cui Xingzhou was accustomed to their dirty methods since he was a child, and after a little thought, he figured it out.

    Thinking of this, and looking at Miantang, I remembered how she was floating in the river when she was dying... What's the use of being smarter and harder, she was used by others when she was unkind. , threw it in the river like throwing garbage...

     

    She couldn't help but hesitate, raised her hand to look at her clothes again, and realized with hindsight that the two sleeves were one long and one short.

    "Ah!" she cried out in shame. No wonder her husband looked at her like this, why did the sleeves go wrong again?

    "Husband, do you think I'm too stupid?" She no longer looked up at him, but threw the clothes in her hands back into the ragged basket.

    And Cui Xingzhou also turned his mind from his contemplation at this time, looking at her shame and anger, he thought it was a little funny, and said gently: "Aren't you very smart in dialing the abacus? Needlework is a bit clumsy, so you can look complete, otherwise all the dexterity in the world belongs to you, how can other girls live?"

    These words were like bean candles, which suddenly lit up Miantang's dark face. She looked at her husband with bright eyes, and her love was even stronger in her heart. Without revealing it, it makes people feel particularly pleasing to the ear.

    However, since your husband has given up on learning chess, he will always be in charge of the shop in the future.

     "Husband, since you think I'm good at abacus, then I'll teach you how to plan tomorrow? And the ledger in the shop gives me a headache, if you take over, it will be better However."

     

    Mian Tang was **** for him. Hearing this, he blushed at first, and then shyly said, "Mother Yin on the street always asks when our Cui residence will have a baby...Mothers Said, like copper and silver, the nature is yin, if you want to conceive at once, you should avoid it... I thought that my husband is not too young, and I should have a child under my knees, so I thought about taking a good rest and conditioning my body... "

    The more I say this, the quieter it gets. Although what she said was reasonable, she should not have said it from her own mouth. What is annoying is that her mother-in-law passed away early, and there is no old man at home who is urging her to add a child. She has to put on a red cloth-like face and say it herself

    

    Cui Xingzhou obviously misunderstood. He fixed his head and looked down at Miantang's face, the smear of red was like the sunset, and the layers of smudges extended all the way to the neck...

    After all, this woman has been in the same bed with him for more than a month, although he kept the etiquette of a gentleman and did not touch her. But her reputation was damaged.

    According to the past, Cui Xingzhou wanted her to enter the temple. Later, it was rare for her to be kind, and she wanted to let her stand on her own.

    But now it seems that the thieves in Yangshan are not willing to let her go. If someone finds it again and puts a knife on her neck like before, how can she protect herself as a woman with both hands and feet?

    For a while, Cui Xingzhou thought about her husband-in-law again. Zhao Quan, the Marquis of Zhennan, has a soft spot for this woman, but how can he protect Zhou Quanmiantang with his lazy and loose temperament? If it's not good, you can break it yourself.

    After thinking about it, Cui Xingzhou didn't bother to think about it anymore, just slowly reached out and touched her head, like coaxing a child: "You are weak and need to be recuperated. will give you a baby..."

    Mian Tang didn't expect that her husband was taking care of her body, so she refused to have **** with her, but she just felt that she was too eager. At the moment, without being ashamed, he just hugged his thin waist, buried his face in his chest and giggled.

     

    Anyway, his future husband-in-law's family had already made an unannounced visit, misunderstood that he had taken in the house, and his cousin Lian Lilan didn't even ask. As long as the children of the Lian family are settled and given enough benefits, the Lian family seems to have acquiesced to this matter.

    In this way, everything will be smooth sailing! Anyway, in the future, he will not lift Miantang to enter, and slap Lian Lilan in the face of the future mistress of the palace.

    As for Liu Miantang, he will break things out with her in the future and tell the truth. As long as she is willing, he will give her decent wealth, maintain her well-being, prevent bad people from killing her life, and live a full and settled life.

    Thinking about this, Cui Xingzhou suddenly felt relieved, and the recent unhappiness in his heart seemed to be resolved easily.

    For a time, the hearts of the "husband and wife" in North Street were relieved a lot, and they lay back on the bed together.

    The two would not fall asleep immediately, so Miantang cuddled in Cui Xingzhou's arms, talking about some trivial things in the house, and in a few words, she turned to her recent mixed dreams.

    Perhaps because she was knocked unconscious by that **** last time, she has always been dreaming recently, but her dreams are all fragmented and incoherent. It's been a busy few nights just transporting money and changing banknotes.

    It's just that she usually wakes up alone in bed, and she feels at a loss that she doesn't know what is going on.

    Fortunately, my husband is always at home recently and sleeps with her at night. Every time she dreams, he will wake her carefully and ask her what she dreamed about.

    In the middle of the month, when someone spoke next to him, it dispelled the feeling of loneliness.

    But even though it was a dream, Miantang was still a little unwell, and finally hesitantly asked her husband: "Husband, did the government ever say where those people came from? Did you really take other people's money?"

    Cui Jiu casually curled her long hair and asked, "It's just a dream, but would you take other people's money privately?"

    Miantang thought about it seriously: "Why should I take someone else's? It's not mine, whether it's money or people, don't give it to me for nothing!"

    When she said this, she also confessed to her husband, that Mr. Ziyu, and men like Zhao Quan who have a lot of wives and concubines, she will not even look at it, let alone bear it. Their sweet-talking lure!

    Cui Jiu raised the corner of his mouth and said nothing.

    However, compared to the quiet times in North Street, Yun Niang in a secluded house in Yangshan was a little out of breath.

    She smashed a cup in her hand, and said viciously: "How is it possible? She has lost her hands and feet and has no martial arts, and she is married to an ordinary businessman. How can the dead Long Guard return nothing?"

    Her confidant Yanchi cautiously said: "The minions have inquired about it later, and it is said that someone was indeed blocking the car in the street that day. It was a coincidence that I encountered a group of barracks near Lingquan Town in civilian clothes. Soldiers, so they happened to be captured for interrogation. But that day, someone saw their bodies being carried out of the official execution room in Lingquan Town. It should be that they did not surrender..."

    Yunniang gritted her teeth and frowned, "Liu Miantang is so daring, not only did she remove the running water of the secretly run store in the cottage, but even the private property left by the Crown Prince. It was also removed, she... she was so greedy, to live up to the son's love for her!"

    After saying this, Yun Niang was in a hurry and turned around in a hurry. If you don't have money to give to your subordinates, you can't really take them to robbery.

    At this moment, someone said from the door: "Miss Sun, the son has invited you to his study..."

    The maid was a little flustered in painting the screen. After the person outside the door left, she whispered to her young lady, "What should I do? Will the young master find out the money that the general's subordinates used?"

    Sun Yunniang glared at her fiercely and said, "If there is anything to panic, let's put it all on Liu Miantang. Compared with the huge sum of money she hid, the ones my father took, It's just a drop in the bucket!"

    After speaking, she also calmed down a lot, only changed her clothes, combed her hair, and then walked to the son's study.

    Tzuyu has good taste. Outside the study is a cluster of precious jade and fine bamboos. If you look closely at the paintings and calligraphy hanging in the study, they are all handmade by famous people, and each painting is invaluable.

    Tzuyu was standing in front of the window listening to his subordinates reporting things. He was dressed in black fox fur. Although it was summer at this time, the mountains were shady and cool, and it seemed that he could not stand the cold after the rain.

    Yunniang watched him staring straight at the green bamboo outside the window, and she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable again, for no other reason, just because that piece of bamboo was specially planted by Liu Miantang for your son.

    She walked over slowly, Fu Li said: "It just rained, you must stay away from the window, so as not to get caught in the cold..." She said, she walked over, wanting to be a substitute Yu tidied up his collar.

    But the gentleman, who was always gentle, waved her hand slightly rudely, then stared at her and said, "Why do you secretly send someone down the mountain to seek trouble with Miantang?"

    Yunniang bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, and said beautifully: "Young master, you think of me so much, if it weren't for the fact that the money in the shanzhai couldn't be connected, why would I be so anxious? I have to check the accounts, and then find out the mistakes of Sister Liu? And I just ordered people to find her whereabouts and ask for a large amount of silver taels, how can I say that I am looking for her trouble? "

    Although Sun Yunniang's appearance is beautiful and lovely, it is far from Liu Miantang's bright and beautiful, but her Xiaojiabiyu appearance is very gentle and virtuous, making men unconsciously treat it with kindness , so as not to abruptly offend the weak woman.

    At this time, Yun Niang's voice trembled slightly, like a frightened rabbit. Anyone who is not hard-hearted will involuntarily restrain their voices.

    Young Master Ziyu also seemed to feel that his tone was too harsh, looking at Yunniang's blushing appearance, he could not help but slow down his tone: "Miantang always does things in a way, why do you ask Don't ask me, just make your own decisions. As a result, such a mess broke out, which alerted the officers and soldiers, and killed six dead soldiers in a row, how do you clean up?"

    In fact, Yunniang had no way to deal with it, and only said softly: "I just asked them to ask, I didn't mean to embarrass my sister, why is my sister so unrepentant, and called the officers and soldiers to deal with the old loyalties. Geng Geng's subordinates..."

    "Shut up! The people who went to inquire about the news didn't say it, they were unlucky and ran into the generals of the Huaiyang king who went out in civilian clothes? Your ability to instruct King Huaiyang's subordinates at any time?"

    Listening to Yunniang accusing Miantang of being wrong, Ziyu became angry again.

    At this time, Mr. Qin, the confidant who was researching countermeasures with the son, said: "Master, Miss Sun is just anxious that the accounts are wrong, so she was in a hurry and asked people to go down the mountain to ask, she did not expect the meeting. With such a result, you don't have to be too angry."

    The author has something to say:  Meow~~Miantang: Who said I was the only one who was proficient in abacus?
