Chapter 136

In the twinkling of an eye, Mu's family has been dead for more than half a month. In the jade mansion, the atmosphere of two successive funerals has gradually faded, and the day has returned to peace.

However, in this calm, there is always an undercurrent, which seems to be brewing a bigger storm.

Ever since Yu Linglong promised Aunt Mei to take charge of her family, she often used the excuse to sit in the orchid garden, showing great anxiety.

In the afternoon, Aunt Mei came again. Looking at Yu Linglong's fresh tea, she could not help asking, "miss four, do you have any plans for that?"

Yu Linglong sipped her hot tea, closed her eyes, and felt the warm breath flowing slowly in her body. After a long time, she said softly, "don't worry, the opportunity will come soon."

According to the dowry list issued by the second wife of mu, the dowry brought by Mu's family to the jade mansion has a large amount of property, including fields, Chuang Tzu, shops, accompanying rooms and maids, as well as gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy, painting and antiques. It takes a lot of effort to sort out the dowry clearly.

The two hostesses of the jade mansion passed away one after another, and Jiang Yuezhen's list of housekeepers naturally fell on Jiang Yuezhen. Jiang Yuezhen had just married into the mansion, and she had not even touched the doors of all the houses and courtyards. It was very hard for her to bear such a big task.

As for the other ladies, according to their status, Yu QIANJIAO is the most suitable one to help Jiang Yuezhen manage her family. However, Yu QIANJIAO is still young, restless, delicate and immature. What's more, when Mu's family leaves, she is hit hard and her housekeeper is obviously unrealistic. Although Yu qianfang had a long history and a cautious personality, she seldom went out of her family because she had no hair. What's more, she disciplined her servants and managed her family affairs. Yuqianliu wants to manage it, but she is not a good candidate because she is a common person, and she is shrewd and shrewd and unpopular.

After Mu's death, Jiang Yuezhen suddenly took on a burden. After only a few days' hard work, she felt that the affairs in the mansion were in disorder. She was really unable to do what she wanted. She was often left and right, and she was too busy. The servants of the jade mansion gradually complained.

On this day, mother Tian, who was in charge of the storehouse, went back and forth to Jiang Yuezhen: "on the list sent by the former son Mu Fu, there is a complete set of red gold and red treasure faces written on it. This warehouse has been confiscated. Please send someone else to look for it."

Jiang Yuezhen arranged Mu's dowry for several days. She also knew that these things could not be accounted for. Except for the land and shop, which had the title deed, there was no way to move it. The rest of the calligraphy, painting and antiques were turned out from time to time and put them on display. When they were tired of enjoying them, they were put away again, or they were broken and compensated as usual, or they were simply given to other rooms, which had become a mess. As for gold and silver jewelry, it's needless to say that it's given to jade jewels, gifts to people on festivals, melted into new jewelry, even when there's no money on the book, it's pawned and redeemed. If you want to check one by one, I'm afraid it won't be clear.

What's more, Mu's marriage over so many years, these things in and out, even the account books do not know how much, how can we check it.

So Tian's mother said this time that she couldn't find a set of red gold and red treasure. Jiang Yuezhen didn't go to her heart. She just waved her hand casually: "I know. I'll ask mother Cui."

Tian's mother retreated. Jiang Yuezhen sent a servant girl to Mu's room and passed this to Cui's mother.

Cui's mother had been with mu for many years, but she had a good idea of these clothes and jewelry. When she saw Jiang Yuezhen asking, she came back to Jiang Yuezhen in person: "the red gold and red treasure maidservant has seen it. In the first few years, the lady mentioned it once and said that the quality of the ruby is excellent. I'm afraid it won't be so good in the future. She wanted to leave it to Miss Liu, and then she ordered her to send it to her The elder sister was in the room. After a few days, she remembered that the sixth miss was too young to wear at that time. She was afraid that it would not be proper to keep it. She asked people to say that they were sent to the warehouse. "

Jiang Yuezhen eyebrow micro Cu: "the warehouse just returned, said the thing is not in, how is this going on?"

Cui's mother said with a smile: "it's easy. If you ask someone to check the account book, you'll know if it's in the warehouse."

Jiang Yuezhen then called the little maid to invite her mother Tian, who also brought the account books of the first few years with her, so as to check them face-to-face.

This time, in the evening, Tian's mother brought several women in. Each woman had a thick stack of account books in her hands. Mother Tian asked the women to put the account books on the table. Suddenly, the dust was flying and Jiang Yuezhen coughed.

Jiang Yuezhen's maid, lilac, was busy waving away the dust in front of her. She angrily said to her mother, "why don't you be gentle? How can you get it

Tian's mother's eyes turned, and she said in an impassioned voice: "the eldest grandmother ordered the maids to bring all the account books. It took the maids a long time to find all the account books. These account books have not been asked for many years, so it is inevitable that the dust will become bigger. "

The implication of Tian's mother's words is very obvious. For so many years, no master said to check the account books, but Jiang Yuezhen wanted to check them. Obviously, she didn't believe her.

Jiang Yuezhen covered her mouth and nose, frowned and looked at the account books on the table. With so many account books, it is not easy to find out the whereabouts of a set of red treasure faces.

Cui's mother wriggled a few lips, as if to say something, but hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped.She wanted to remind Jiang Yuezhen that the account book of gold and silver jewelry is a separate one, and it should not be difficult to find out the approximate year.

However, looking at this situation, Tian's mother obviously wants to give Jiang Yuezhen a strong hand. She still doesn't want to help Jiang Yuezhen so obviously. After all, mother Tian is an old man in the mansion for many years, so it's not easy to offend her. What's more, after Mu's death, mother Cui has no master. She still doesn't know how to live in the jade mansion in the future. It's better to do as little as possible to offend people.

Besides, Jiang Yuezhen is a new granny. Mother Cui also wants to take this opportunity to see what kind of disposition this great grandmother is. She has found out the master's temper. She will have a better life in the future.

Therefore, when Tian's mother put on a difficult posture of Jiang Yuezhen, Cui's mother chose silence.

Jiang Yuezhen took a few sips of tea from cloves before she stopped coughing. She looked at the thick account books on the table, and then looked at the mother Tian, who was obviously not respectful, but bowed her head. She could not help but get angry.

She is not a fool. Of course, she knows that mother Tian's intention is to embarrass herself. However, she has just taken over the housekeeper's affairs and has no idea of the rules of the jade mansion. She wants to look through the account books herself, but she really can't do anything about it. If she takes out the authority of the master to punish her mother Tian, she is somewhat too reluctant.

Jiang Yuezhen forced down this sultry and slowed down her voice: "there are so many accounts, how should I check it?"

Tian's mother squinted at Jiang Yuezhen and said in a stuffy voice, "if you want to check, you can do it. The maids have been working in the storehouse for nearly forty years, and the masters and sons have never checked the account books of the maids. This time, the eldest grandmother wants to check, so the eldest grandmother has to be the master. "
