Chapter 47 Handkerchief 8

Regardless of family, one doesn’t know how wealthy the Duke’s Mansion is. That’s all, the money Shen Cang gave them to manage the Duke’s Mansion, the trophies captured by Shen Cang, and the village shop, etc., he handed over to the chief steward of the outer courtyard. Who cares - after all, the people in the second room were not very kind to Shen Cang before. How could Shen Cang trust them and give all his things to the second room manager? Since they said that there is no mistress in the Duke's mansion, no one can entertain the favors. If it's appropriate, then Shen Cang will give them a sum of money and let them take care of this. No matter how much they spend the rest, Shen Cang will not give it to them.

But the money alone is enough for them to become more and more greedy.

But at the beginning, they were just greedy. They knew that in the future Shen Cang would have a wife and children, and the Duke's mansion would always be theirs. They, the second wife, would be satisfied if they could temporarily take care of the house and make some money before the Duke's wife appeared.

But no one expected that Shen Cang married two wives in succession. Both wives divorced him for unknown reasons, and until he was almost thirty years old, he was still alone.

At this time, the second wife's heart became wild, thinking that if Shen Cang never had a wife or children, wouldn't the huge business he earned belong to his family? After all, someone has to inherit these things, right? He has no descendants. Isn't it reasonable to give him a family?

Once this thought arises, it can no longer be suppressed.

So when Shen Cang married his third wife, Mr. Shen Er began to brainwash Shen Cang by pretending to be righteous and moral, saying: "If the lady who comes in this time gets along well with you, then of course it will be good. You guys should be nice." If you don't get along well with each other and want to make peace with each other, then I think you should not marry another wife in the future, so as not to harm other people's good girls. It doesn't matter if you don't have children, just adopt one from the clan."

In this clan, it naturally refers to his family.

Not to mention, in the original life, Shen Cang obviously listened to Master Shen Er's words. After Qiao Anran reconciled with him, he never married again, but adopted Master Shen Er's grandson.

While brainwashing Shen Cang, Mrs. Shen Cang was also trying every means to persuade the new wife to divorce Shen Cang. After all, Master Shen Cang had persuaded Shen Cang and Shen Cang to agree to marry only this time. Next, as long as Qiao Anran and Shen Cang If they reconcile, their plan will succeed.

I thought this thing was almost done, but unexpectedly something unexpected happened - Qiao Anran, that little bitch, was unwilling to divorce.

He took away her housekeeping rights and was still unwilling to reconcile. This naturally made Mrs. Shen Er, whose plan went bankrupt, angry.

When Mrs. Shen heard what Lu Lian said, she said, "Continue to persuade her to reconcile. If the persuasion fails, don't even think about marrying into our family!"

Her son has a cousin like Ding Guogong. What kind of woman can't marry her? If it weren't for the fact that she was Qiao's friend, it would be easier than others to persuade Qiao to leave her cheap nephew. Otherwise, she wouldn't have done it at all. Make such a promise.

She was not afraid that Lu Lian failed to persuade Mrs. Qiao to leave the Duke's Mansion. She did not let her son marry Lu Lian. Lu Lian dared to say outside that she had sent her to encourage Mrs. Qiao to divorce her nephew. After all, if she said it, she would For the sake of profit, the reputation of a person who hinders his friends will be much better. Considering this, Lu Lian will definitely not dare to say anything. Naturally, she does not need to worry.

After hearing Mrs. Shen Er's unkind words, Lu Lian couldn't help but blush, but she didn't dare to refute anything, so she could only agree and said, "I'll try again."

Lu Lian left Mrs. Shen's courtyard, and the news that Lu Lian went to the second room was sent to An Ran.

Although An Ran had only taken over the housekeeping rights for a few days, she had already arranged for some fairly smart and capable people to keep an eye on Mrs. Shen Er's yard and report to her if there was any movement.

There is no need to trust these people too much, as long as they can help her keep an eye on people. Anyway, she sent more than one person. If this person didn't complete the task, the other one will definitely complete the task. Then when giving instructions, she deliberately said that she was only with her. Having said that, if Mrs. Shen Er knew that she had sent someone to keep an eye on her, she would definitely have leaked the news, and she would be sent away. Therefore, the person sent not only reported the news to her, but also He didn't dare to tell anyone about the fact that he sent someone to keep an eye on Mrs. Shen Er, so even though he had just arrived and didn't know which one was more reliable, the effect was pretty good.

After all, after having experienced the house fighting in the first world, An Ran is not very good at house fighting, but he can't deal with Shen who just came to Beijing from the countryside and then managed the Dingguo Duke's mansion, which is not too complicated and has not made much progress in house fighting ability. The second lady is more than enough.

An Ran saw that Lu Lian had indeed gone to the second courtyard, and couldn't help but smile coldly, secretly thinking that it seemed that the original family's guess was correct. The two parties seemed to have been mixed together for a long time. In other words, the original family's conspiracy The theory is very likely that it is true.

But since she's here, she won't let them succeed.

Of course, these are things for the future. For now, Shen Cang has to hand over the money embezzled by the second room, An Ran dusted off the listed pages and thought.

At that moment, An Ran asked someone to call Shen Cang over and said, "I have checked the account. This is what I found. You can see if the things they misappropriated are correct."

Shen Cang nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing the several pages filled with misappropriation records one by one, Shen Cang couldn't help but darken his face.

Thinking back to these years, Mrs. Shen Er said all day long that the house had a large population and a lot of expenses, and the expenses were more and more every time. As a result, the expenses over the years had not increased. All the things she wanted to go to had obviously gone into her possessions. fanny pack.

It seems that it is not enough for him to provide them with food, clothing, housing and transportation. He also has to hand over the money he earns to them. Thinking about how they sent his young self out to make a living on his own, can Shen Cang's face not be dark?

At that moment, Shen Cang found Mrs. Shen Er, patted the stack of paper in front of her, and said, "In the past few years, I have supported your family with good food and drink, but you are still not satisfied and have misappropriated nearly 30,000 to 40,000 taels of silver. I don’t want to talk nonsense. I give you three days to come up with this money. If you can come up with it, you can do whatever you want. If you can’t come up with it, then go back to your hometown in the countryside."

In less than three years, he had embezzled thirty to forty thousand taels. His second aunt was really a leech!

Mrs. Shen Er didn't expect that Mr. Qiao would actually find out her account. What she didn't expect was that Shen Cang would ask her for such a small amount of money. If she didn't pay it back, she would threaten to send her back to her hometown. Her face suddenly darkened. , said: "Is there anyone as rich as you who doesn't take care of your relatives? It's only three to forty thousand taels of silver, so you ask me for it. You have so much money, why are you so fussy with your elders!"

She didn't deny that she had misappropriated 30,000 to 40,000 taels of silver. After all, her accounting was simple and it was easy to see that denying it was useless, so she simply acted like a rogue and accused Shen from the moral high ground. Careful about everything.
