Chapter 168 Rain

It didn't take long for Xuefu to get the news that Li Su, the son of Prince Yi, and Cao Qin, the daughter of the Minister of War, are still married, but they have a very good relationship, so they are not considering accepting the son and concubine now.

Hearing this news, the old lady only felt that it was thunderous. She had never heard who Cao Qin was. Although she had faded out of this circle for many years, she still had eyeliner, but Cao Qin really had never heard of it.

Even the third sister has never heard of the name Cao Qin.

The old lady was unwilling to be defeated like this. She ordered someone to check the identity background of the secretary of the Ministry of War, and she was even more frightened and became very sick. The minister of the Ministry of War is not a big man, but a student of Prime Minister Liu. He has only been sitting in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War for only a year, and Cao Qin came to the capital at the end of the year.

I didn't expect that Xue's third sister inexplicably lost to the girl who didn't have much background at all. But the old lady also knew in her heart that without the support of the emperor, how could she promote this marriage?

The ninth sister has no joy in her heart. The old lady is biased by the third sister. If the third sister can't get married, it can be said that the impact on her is the greatest. As expected, it wasn't long before the third sister began to slowly encroach on the power in her hand. This subordinate of the Xue family could have said that he was crazy about the third sister, but he has only respected her over the years. Now that the third sister has taken action, most of them have turned to the third sister.

"Sister Jiu, what can I do? There is something wrong with the account room!" Zhu'er ran in anxiously and knelt on the ground.

The ninth sister squinted at the seal that was kneeling on the ground. She was relieved, but today's seal was so anxious that she could not deal with it.

"What's wrong!"

"The cloth village in Zhuque Street was inexplicably missing a sum of money, and the maidservant also found out when checking the accounts this morning."

The ninth sister frowned and was thoughtful. She looked at the account book again and again. Obviously, Buzhuang's account book was modified last night, but she didn't know when the silver was lost.

"Which account book was given to yesterday!" The ninth sister looked awe-in.

Bear hesitated, lowered her head, and dared not look at the ninth sister.

Nine's eyes looked coldly at Zhu'er. Suddenly, Zhu'er felt a cold sweat behind her back, "It's the new accountant who came some time ago. I have sent someone to his house to look for it."

Since the silver has been taken away, it is obviously prepared. What can be found now? The ninth sister waved her hand and her face was cold. "You go back to the account room first, and then check if there is any problem with other account books. I'll report it to my grandmother first."

In the main courtyard, the old lady has already learned the news, but she has received more information than the ninth sister. Originally, Xue's house was already chaotic enough at these times, but she didn't expect that the third sister would step in. Although she spoiled the third sister, the third sister is the daughter of the second wife after all, so she naturally has some scruples. As for Sister Jiu, she is the only one she relies on now, so she dares to give the most important economic lifeline of Xuefu to Sister Jiu without reservation.

I didn't expect that the third sister would still want to intervene in the affairs of the house.

The third sister knelt on the ground at this moment, trembling. The second wife stood aside and looked at the third sister and the old lady anxiously, but she also knew that this time the third sister did make the old lady angry.

When the ninth sister entered the room, she saw such a scene and couldn't help taking a deep breath.

She knelt on the ground and said, "Grandma, this time it's Jiu'er's omission. Please punish her!"

The old lady looked at the ninth sister and the third sister kneeling on the ground. Her old face was angry. She did not look at the ninth sister, but asked the third sister first and said, "Third sister, why do you want to interfere in the affairs of the house so much?"

The third sister smiled sadly, "Grandma, San'er knows what kind of life San'er is. Originally, San'er had made up her mind not to marry. She just wanted to stay in Xue's house and share the worries of her grandmother and mother. Unfortunately, her grandmother only had the ninth sister in her eyes, and she handed over everything to the ninth sister. In fact, San'er knows that you are worried about San'er's body, but what else San'er can do besides doing these for the rest of her life. She closed her eyes miserably, "If grandma wants to punish San'er, San'er has nothing to say."

The third sister was moved, and the old lady was also very worried. The third sister's marriage was bumpy. Perhaps because of this, she really died. She just wanted to give a little strength for the house. Speaking of the third sister, she was not wrong. Maybe it was just that she was too strong in defense. If the third sister is right about everything in the house, she will definitely be disliked after a long time. The third sister is also planning for her future!

The old lady personally picked up the third sister, and most of the anger on her face had disappeared.

The third sister's face was full of tears. Seeing the old lady holding her up, she looked at the old lady in astonishment. The old lady sighed, "Get up. It's my grandmother who didn't expect this. Don't worry, no one dares to bully you in this house one day."

She turned her head and said to Sister Jiu, "You should also get up. This matter has been exposed. No one is allowed to talk about it again."

"Grandma, those silver!" Sister Jiu said anxiously.

"The accountant didn't take away much money. Since this was done by the third sister, he will naturally get the money back." The anger on the old lady's face completely disappeared and was gradually replaced by kindness.

Is this the end of this matter?

Sister Jiu only felt indignant, but didn't say anything, but frowned.

"I don't think well about the third sister doing this. Well, the ninth sister gives the shop in her hand to the third sister to take care of it, and you just focus on taking care of the account book in the house."

The ninth sister opened her mouth and saw the old lady's irrefutable face. She obediently swallowed the words, but she inadvertently saw the triumphant smile in the eyes of the third sister, but the third sister's face was still sad.

Disgusting!

Sister Jiu was disgusted, but she did not look away immediately. Originally, she wanted to leave a little for Xue's house, but now it seems that she is extremely disappointed with Xue's house. Maybe before long, the third sister will not be satisfied with just those shops. Doesn't she want to manage all the accounts in Xue's mansion? Just give it to her!

The ninth sister grinned at the third sister, and soon the smile on her face disappeared, as if her smile was just an illusion.

But when the third sister saw the strange smile of the ninth sister, there was an indescribable fear and tension in her heart, as if she had been seen through by the ninth sister.

Things seemed to follow the development predicted by the ninth sister. In less than half a month, the third sister was no longer satisfied with taking care of those shops. She didn't know what she said in the old lady's ear, but she couldn't help giving most of the accounts in the house to the third sister. Even if Sister Jiu is resentful, there is nothing she can do.

"Grandma, why did you do this!" Sister Jiu gritted her teeth.

The old lady looked at the ninth sister faintly. She didn't expect that the third sister was really good at managing the house, at least to reassure her than when she was in the hands of the ninth sister.

"You have also seen the strength of the third sister during this period. The third sister is indeed much better than you. I'll find a marriage for you later!"

Sister Jiu's heart was chilled and ruined her marriage with a word from the old lady. It was also a word from the old lady to let her get married. What did they think of her? It is still abandoned like grass mustard. Ha, it's ridiculous. Obviously, she is the eldest daughter of Xue's family.

The ninth sister laughed angrily, "Since my grandmother doesn't need Jiu'er, why should I stay in Xue's house? In this case, why don't I go to my grandmother's place? At least my grandmother has urged my cousin to let me go there many times. Grandma, don't blame Jiu'er."

The old lady thumped in her heart. Looking at the smile of the ninth sister, she was a little flustered.

If the third sister really marries Li Su, there will be no chance later O(∩_∩)O haha~

From the end of the third volume to the countdown, these chapters are just plain narratives of Sister Jiu and other silver's participation in this divorce event. A summer wrote a frozen bird, but the collection and ticket paper did not have the previous chapters of Sister Jiu's abuse, which is a little depressed.
