Chapter 149: Trouble is coming
Bao Yun arranged her sleeves and glanced up at Xue Jiayi carelessly, with a gloomy smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Does your mother think your father will make decisions for you? If you think so, then take Kou Nuan with you. It's just that I'm really disappointed in my mother, and if my father knows that you can't understand him after following him for so long, then he will be even more disappointed. ”
Xue Jiayi wanted to convince herself that Bao Yun was scaring her, but when she heard Bao Yun mention Yu Mingjiang, she was not so sure.
It's not entirely because of Baoyun's words, it's because she thinks so herself. After this day, she herself more or less figured out the reason why Yu Mingjiang was angry with her.
She has failed in her calculations against Bao Yun several times, not to mention this for the time being, Yu Mingjiang will not be angry with her because of a Bao Yun. The point is that while she failed, she involved Yu Mingjiang, and Bao Yun fanned the flames on the side, which was the reason why Yu Mingjiang was angry.
And Kou Nuan's matter has passed, and if she mentions it with Yu Mingjiang now, Yu Mingjiang will not be able to make decisions for her.
She didn't feel half happy when she figured it out, only cold. She and Yu Mingjiang have been married for so many years, but Yu Mingjiang still puts interests above their feelings.
Bao Yun saw that the madness on Xue Jiayi's face gradually dissipated, and knew that Xue Jiayi had thought it through, so she got up and pulled Kou Nuan out of their hands, and said with a smile: "It's good that Mother has figured it out, so I don't have to worry about it." I'm here now to see what Mother is missing here, as my father intended......"
She looked at Xue Jiayi's house as she spoke, and saw that there was really not a single ornament in the room, and even the teacups and teapots she was drinking tea with now were not complete.
"It seems that my mother is really lacking in everything here, and I really want to make up for everything for my mother, but unfortunately I can't be the master, and I still have to make a decision after I have a clear father."
Xue Jiayi quickly calmed down, this time Baoyun's words did not anger her, she said calmly: "Now that you are in charge, I am still grounded, what do you say?" ”
Her attitude made Baoyun wary again, and generally Xue Jiayi was not excited, but she had a new plan.
In this case, Bao Yun thought that it would not be good for her to stay any longer and have some quarrels, so she didn't stay any longer and left with Kou Nuan.
Watching Bao Yun's figure gradually disappear into the night, Xue Jiayi's gaze was as deep as the night.
Baoyun took Kou Nuan back to the Ju'an Courtyard, thinking of the episode in the Ju'an Courtyard just now, she called Kou Nuan to her room, but before she could persuade her, she heard Kou Nuan say: "Miss doesn't need to say much, what Miss wants to say, the slave and maid are clear in their hearts, and the slave and maid are also clear, as long as the young lady is there, the young lady will not let the slave and the maid be bullied by the lady." ”
What Kou Nuan said was what she wanted to say, but Kou Nuan said what she wanted, and her appearance didn't look unusual. But her heart was faintly uneasy, and she didn't know if it was her delusion.
It's not good to show it in front of Kou Nuan, she smiled and said: "It's best if you think so, since you don't want to fulfill the marriage contract with Qi Yang, then I."
I don't force you, I will give Qi Yang a sum of money, just as compensation for him, in case he is unwilling to tell you about it. ”
"Miss, don't worry, he's not such a person." Kou Nuan originally planned not to say anything, but when she heard Baoyun say this about Qi Yang, she still couldn't help but distinguish two sentences for Qi Yang.
Baoyun was stunned, didn't say anything more, only nodded and agreed to Kou Nuan.
It wasn't early, Bao Yun washed up and went to bed. There was still a lot of work to do tomorrow, and a lot of energy was wasted running around today, and she soon fell asleep.
The next day, when she opened her eyes, Bao Yun quickly washed and groomed and looked through the account book. She thought that she should be able to find clues about Kong Rou's dowry in the ledger.
She looked from the earliest ledgers, but did not see any trace of the dowry. This was also within her expectations, Xue Jiayi was not so stupid, and directly filled Kong Rou's dowry into the public account of the Yu Mansion.
However, she is not busy, just looking at Yu Jiawen and Xue Jiayi's squandering in the past two months, she knows that without the support of Kong Rou's dowry, the income of Yu Mansion alone will not be able to support their expenses.
It's just that if you're not happy, you can smash the whole house, and the Yu Mansion doesn't have such wealth.
The hard work paid off, she searched for almost an hour, and finally sorted out a few suspicious places, thinking that these were some of Kong Rou's dowry, but not all.
If there is a dowry list, she only needs to use the list to find out the pair on the ledger, and she doesn't have to find out the suspicious property little by little.
And since it's a dowry, there must be a lot of jewelry, and it takes more thought to get those things back.
Thinking that she let out a long breath, she still had a lot to do.
She was watching, and Yi Dan came to report at this time: "Miss, the kitchen manager Wu is here, saying that he is here to get the money for the dishes." ”
Dish money? Baoyun frowned, looking at the accounts, the food money is given once a week, and the imperial court also distributes grain and meat, so the food money for the whole house is enough for twenty taels a week.
Baoyun is not a little girl who is ignorant of the world, she was also in charge of the family in her last life, she knows what the price of what things are, and what the expenses of a house are.
And this week's vegetable money, which Steward Wu has already received, is mostly here to find fault now. It seems that Xue Jiayi still can't swallow this breath.
Thinking about it, she asked Yi Dan to invite this Wu steward in.
Although people can't be good-looking, this Wu steward has a roe head and a rat eye, and after entering the Ju'an Courtyard, a pair of eyes are gurgling, and it is hard to believe that he is a good person.
Bao Yun smiled kindly and asked, "I don't know what is the matter with Manager Wu here?" ”
Hearing Bao Yun's question, Steward Wu smiled, looked at Bao Yun and said, "If you go back to the eldest lady, the little one is here to get the money for the dishes." ”
Yi Dan looked at Steward Wu like this, how could anyone in the ordinary mansion dare to stare at the young lady like this, Steward Wu is very disrespectful to Baoyun.
She wanted to have a seizure, but seeing Baoyun's appearance, she didn't dare to assert herself, so she could only endure it.
"Oh, this dish
Isn't it all the money that comes out of the week? Steward Wu has already received this week's vegetable money, why is it here again? Bao Yun asked.
"Two days ago, there was a flower-viewing banquet in Fuzhong, and the money for this dish ran out, and there are no more vegetables in Fuzhong now."
Bao Yun listened to Steward Wu's words, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Caiyun walking in with a panicked face, but after seeing Steward Wu, she stood on her feet and didn't walk in again, it seemed that something was wrong.
