After rebirth, I became a scumbag and his aunt

Mother Zheng who was waiting aside was shocked when she heard this. How could she know so clearly? Exactly!

Princess Chengjun glanced at Zheng's mother, "Is she right?"

Mother Zheng hesitated and said, "It's true that I will return to the princess. But I have never told my cousin..."

Princess Chengjun was a little surprised and asked Han Youning, "How do you know so clearly?"

Han Youning said softly, "Because the money came from my daughter."

Little Wen said displeased, "Girl Ning, you can't say this nonsense. When did you give me the money?"

Han Youning smiled and said, "Second Madam, please ask the accounting clerk in the outer courtyard. You will know after asking."

Xiao Wen's face was very bad when he heard the faint discussion. Seeing Han Youning's confident look, he felt even more uneasy.

"Our greenhouse handles the accounts of the inner courtyard. Why should we hire the accounting clerk of the outer courtyard?"

Han Youning did not explain to her, "Second Madam just invites people here first."

Little Wen winked at Qian's mother and said, "Go and ask Manager Wen to come over."

Mother Qian agreed and left quickly.

Mrs. Han's face darkened slightly.

She believed that she was quite good at handling the servants in the house, but the only thing she couldn't control was the clerk.

Manager Wen went to the battlefield with the old Duke Ding. His leg was broken and he could no longer fight. He could read and write, so he came to the mansion and became the accountant of the outer courtyard.

This person was unscrupulous, only accepted death, and did not give her any face. Therefore, no matter how she fiddled with the accounts, she never dared to touch the accounts of the outer courtyard.

But I don’t know how Chen Youning got involved with him.

Princess Chengjun glanced at Mrs. Han, who looked obviously unhappy, and she was in a good mood. She drank tea and leisurely admired the chrysanthemums beside the pavilion.

Manager Wen was quickly brought over.

He was in his fifties, was lame on one leg, had a scar running diagonally across his face, and had a pair of sharp eyes, which made him look very scary.

He only bowed his hands in greeting and said nothing more, all in the style of a martial artist.

Mother Qian shook her head gently at little Wen, her brows furrowed.

Little Wen knew it and didn't ask anything.

Little Wen asked him kindly, "Manager Wen, I heard from Miss Biao that he supplemented the money of the outer courtyard. Is this true?"

In one sentence, she defined giving money as Han Youning's attempt to curry favor with the outer court, and there was some hidden agenda behind it.

She learned a lot of this kind of verbal skills from the old lady, and the results have always been very good. As long as Manager Wen agrees, there will be a lot of room for imagination, and there is no need to ask clearly, just let everyone figure it out.

Manager Wen had no expression on his face, "Second Madam, what you said is wrong. My cousin gave me the money for a reason. She gave me the money to buy chrysanthemums. My cousin was grateful for the old lady's kindness, and she felt sad when she saw the money she spent every day. Feeling uneasy, she asked Beizi to find out how much money she spent on buying flowers, and she gave the money to Beizi privately."

He took out a list from his arms and handed it to Little Wen, "This is the detailed list for buying flowers every day. Mother Zheng actually spent one thousand eight hundred and thirty-six taels of silver on flowers. Report it to the inner courtyard accountant. I paid two thousand one hundred and thirty-six taels of silver. My cousin gave me the money according to the account of the inner courtyard."

Mother Zheng's face turned pale, and she hurriedly knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Little Wen, "Second Madam, there is nothing that doesn't exist, but Manager Wen invented it out of thin air and slandered this servant!"

Manager Wen said coldly, "I went to check every store in the flower market. Every store has its accounts that can be checked. I also have a way to see the accounts of the inner court. If the Second Madam is interested, she will find out once she checks. "

Little Wen knew that the mothers in charge were all fishing for money, but she didn't expect that they were fishing so hard, three hundred taels! The second master's miscellaneous salary for a year does not necessarily add up to three hundred taels!

But now that the guests were full, it was not the time to deal with her. She glared at Zheng's mother and said, "Get out of here!"

Mother Zheng staggered back, knowing that she was doomed.

At this time, there was an uproar all around. What they cared about was not that the mother in charge was enriching her own pocket, but that the cousin spent her own money to buy flowers.

"So, those chrysanthemums were paid for by herself!"

"It seems like she's not that ignorant or ungrateful. On the contrary, she's quite considerate..."

"But I don't know how the name of arrogance spread?"

Just now, three generations of them, including their servants and wives, showed mercy and kindness, felt aggrieved and cried, but now they all became a joke.

What their purpose is is obvious.

Everyone looked at each other meaningfully and said nothing else.

Although the discussion was small, the space that could not be blocked was so large. Little Wen knew that she could only bite the bullet and continue on, not to tarnish her mother-in-law's reputation for being gentle.

Little Wen asked Manager Wen, "Since you took the money, why didn't you tell me and make this matter transparent?"

Manager Wen's eyes narrowed, and the scars on his face became more ferocious, which frightened little Wen.

"Second Madam, in your humble position, you don't have the dirty thoughts of enriching your own pockets."

He sneered, "I guess it's because the Duke's palace is so rotten from top to bottom. There's so much filth that there's no room for honest people."

Such insinuations made everyone's eyes light up. Naturally, these masters are indispensable for this "up and down"!

Little Wen tried to calm down, but her tone of voice became increasingly harsh unconsciously, "Manager Wen, be careful what you say! Tell me why the money didn't go to the outer courtyard's account?"

She knew that Han Youning had been to the accounting office of the outer court twice, but she couldn't find out what she had done. She checked the accounts of the outer court and didn't see anything wrong. After all, she had taken it lightly and thought she was going to inquire about Duke Dingguo.

news, I didn’t think much about it elsewhere.

Now, the only thing left to do is to keep him secretly working.

Although Manager Wen looked fierce, his tone was obviously much kinder when he mentioned Han Youning, "My cousin didn't want everyone to know about the gift of money, which would hurt the old lady's kindness. She asked her humble position to exchange the money for it.

The food was transferred to the frontier soldiers, which not only relieved her anxiety, but also lived up to the old lady's wishes."

Mrs. Han sighed secretly, today's events have exceeded her expectations.

She spoke to Han Youning affectionately, blaming and feeling distressed at the same time, "You kid, why are you so out of touch with others, secretly doing things like borrowing flowers to offer to Buddhas? That would make those who don't know think that the Duke's government has treated you harshly.

, I want you to spend the money of an orphan girl. There are 200,000 soldiers of the Southwest Army, and your little money can’t even make a splash, so what are you going to do?”

Han Qingwan also knew that if she didn't control the situation at this time, not only would the reputation of her family and grandchildren be damaged, but Chen Youning would also take the opportunity to become famous.

She stepped forward, took Han Youning's hand and said with a smile, "Cousin, I don't know. Grandma is frugal and sends all the money she saves to the southwest. If you have such a kind intention, tell grandma,

It's convenient for grandma to send the money there together. If Manager Wen had bought grain transportation separately for your two thousand taels of silver, the long journey would have consumed manpower and material resources, and I'm afraid the gain would outweigh the loss."

The meaning of what their grandfather and grandson said was obvious. Han Youning paid more than 2,000 taels of silver to gain a good reputation, but in the end, the money came from their government. And in order to achieve her good reputation, others had to make things difficult.

.

Now that things have turned into such a mess, is she deliberately trying to show off the face of the Duke's government?

Han Youning looked at the two of them with a sarcastic smile on his lips.

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

Thank you dear friends for worrying about the listing and recommendation for Momo.

Although I don’t know much about the recommendation mechanism, I roughly know that it is complementary to factors such as the number of collections and comments.

There was a wave of testing a few days ago, but unfortunately Momo failed to live up to expectations and the data was not very good.

So I don’t have any good recommendations recently.

I tried my best to tell this story well and live up to everyone’s enthusiasm~~
