Gong, I'll protect you

Chapter 174 Treasury In and Out of Account

Hearing Aunt Shen helping steward Song speak, Ding Xiaozi was not annoyed, and she still kept a faint smile on her face. When Aunt Shen finished her half threatening words, she smiled slowly and whispered, "I naturally know what my aunt means. How can it be a square circle without rules? Haofu's family has a big career, and naturally there must be rules to continue from generation to generation. However, today I just want to read the account book of the warehouse so that I can understand the situation of the warehouse. Now that I am the head of the house, I don't even have the right to know?

Indeed, although there is a suspicion of steward Song in and out of Ding's words, she does not say that steward Song is not good, and now Hao Fu is in charge of the house. If she doesn't even have the power to read the warehouse account book, how can she be called the head of the family? Isn't it just a name?

Aunt Shen had no way to refute for a moment. She snorted angrily and turned her head to ignore Ding's page.

Aunt Shen was silent, and Ding Pagezi looked at Steward Song again, looking indifferently sitting firmly in Mount Tai, "Serge Manager Song, am I qualified to look through the account book of the warehouse?"

steward Song subconsciously glanced at Aunt Shen, but when he saw Aunt Shen nodding to him, he just lowered his head and bowed to Ding Page and said in a low voice, "Since the young lady is the head of the family, she naturally has this right to look at it. Young lady, wait, the old slave will get it."

Ding Page raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a faint smile, "Then I'm sorry to bother the steward Song."

Song Xun didn't dare to say that it was all his business.

Then, Song Xun went back to the room to get the account book of the warehouse. The council hall of the South Court was silent for a moment. Ding Nae only planned to take Song Xun first, and did not intend to implicate too many people. As long as those custodians knew that she was not easy to fool, don't plan to deceive her easily. Of course, if the real account hasn't appeared three days later, it's no wonder she did it again. What's the use of this kind of cheating slave?

When he was young, stewer Song appeared with a pile of account books in his hand.

At the sign of Ding's page, steward Song directly put the account book on the table next to her so that she could check it.

In front of so many stewards, in front of Aunt Shen, Ding Zizi picked up last month's warehouse entry and exit account book and looked through it. She saw that it said that she had entered three mountain ginseng last month, and then she picked up last month's warehouse entry and exit account book and looked through it again. As steward Song just said, the above record It is indeed said that four mountain ginseng were prepared in the warehouse, and then all of them were used by Hao Ling.

Although it verified the words of steward Song, Ding's page did not stop and directly looked through the warehouse access book in July and August. There is nothing to do in July and August. Except that Mr. Hao used two mountain ginsengs, it is useless for others.

The corners of Ding Yizi's mouth were slightly upturned, and a wisp of sneer appeared on her lips.

The account book was then put down. Ding Page looked at the steward Song with an indifferent look. He tapped the account book with one hand and asked softly, "Mr. Song, are you sure that the warehouse has been in and out of here in the past few months?"

stewer Song turned his head heavily and said seriously, "In the words of the young lady, the account of the warehouse in the past few months has been here."

Ding Xiaozi sneered and suddenly swept all the books on the account books on the table to the ground. He looked at Mr. Song with heavy eyes, "Mr. Song, you have been a warehouse steward in Hao's house for many years. The master and aunt trust you. Is this how you repay Hao's kindness to you?"

Anyone with a little common sense knows that the warehouse is a shortage. Since Song Xun has been in charge of the warehouse for many years, it naturally has something to do with Aunt Shen's promotion, and Aunt Shen has always been supporting him behind his back. It is also because there is such a backstage as Aunt Shen, so Song Xun used to walk horizontally in the house. How could anyone be shameless for him like this? Unexpectedly, he swept the account book he presented to the ground in front of so many people.

Song Xun's face is also ugly. In his eyes, Ding Page is still a young child with no hair. How can he be qualified to be the master? The master is just giving face to the young master. Does she really think that she can already take power?

"Young lady," Song Xun said in a low voice, "The old slave has also worked in Hao's house for many years. Even if there is no merit, there is still hard work. I don't know what the young lady's move means? When my wife was in charge, these books would be sent to my wife for trial. Now the young lady suspects that the account book is fake. Is she also doubting my wife?

Song Xun deserves to be an old Jiang, and immediately put a heavy hat on Ding Page's head!

You should know that although Aunt Shen is only an aunt, she is a good concubine and a person with status. In addition, she has contributed a lot to Hao's family for so many years. Ding Xiaozi suspects that her behavior can also be regarded as unfilial!

Ding Zhizi didn't talk to him, but said lightly to Donger beside him, "Dong'er, go and bring all the books in my study."

With Ding's words, Aunt Shen took a fierce look at Donger. She thought that it might be Donger who betrayed her, so she discussed with Ding Page earlier.

Dong'er was really wronged. Ding Page didn't tell her anything in advance. She didn't even know what the account book Ding Page said. Hearing this, he was stunned and asked in a low voice, "What is the account book that the young lady said?"

Ding Zizi said, "Go to the study. There is a box on the desk. Just go and hold it for me."

Donger Nuonuo's response was that he hurriedly strode to the study.

Aunt Shen glanced at Shen's mother quietly. Shen's mother was understanding and quietly followed Donger.

The East Courtyard is the territory of Hao Ling and Ding Page. If Mother Shen directly followed Dong'er's back, it would inevitably cause Ding Page's suspicion, so she was just waiting behind a small rockery outside the East Courtyard. When Dong'er came out with a box in her arms, Shen's mother appeared at the right time and pulled Dong'er to the rockery.

After being suddenly dragged to the rockery, Donger was shocked and was preparing to shout in panic. Shen's mother quickly reached out and covered her mouth and shouted in a low voice, "What's the panic? It's me!"

Only then did Donger see the person coming clearly. Seeing that it was Shen's mother, she looked slightly panicked.

She is not a confused person. Now that she is serving in the East Courtyard, she should keep a certain distance from the South Courtyard in terms of opinion. Otherwise, in her situation, she will definitely be thankless on both sides. If something happens, Aunt Shen will not come forward for such a little maid as her.

"Mother Shen, you are..." Donger said in a trembling voice.

Shen's mother glanced at Donger with a cold face, looked at the box in her arms, and motioned Donger to open it.

I don't know whether Ding's defense is too low, or whether she trusts too much in Dong'er, and the box is not locked. Anyone can open it.

Donger looked at Shen's mother in embarrassment, with a begging look in her eyes.

If this matter is known by Ding Page, she will not be easy to stay in the East Courtyard in the future. Now the young lady still trusts her quite a lot, and she can see that the young master is sincerely good to the young lady. Why should she destroy her future?

Mother Shen snorted coldly, poked her finger on Donger's forehead, and said in a bad voice, "It's really against you, you little hoof. Now you don't allow me to see something? Your wings are hard, aren't they?"

Donger lowers her waist slightly and looks humble. "Mom Shen, what are you talking about? No matter how bold I am, I dare not not listen to you.

"Huh... Then open the box for me quickly. I want to have a look." Mother Shen said in a low voice.

Dong'er held the box tightly in her arms and said, "Mother Shen, we are all servants. You should also know the embarrassment of the servants. Now that I am a messenger beside the young lady, if the young lady knows this, I will be sad in the future."

Shen's mother looked at her disdainfully and sneered, "Are you afraid that the young lady won't give you a good life? Aren't you afraid of your wife? I heard that your eldest brother was sick a while ago. Do you know how it is? We have a lot of things to do in Hao's house. I'm afraid it won't be good for this kind of patient to stay in the shop. I think it's time to let him pack up and go home to recuperate.

Dong'er panicked. The eldest brother is the pillar of the family. If he doesn't have a job, where will the living expenses of his father, mother-in-law and nephew come from in the future? It is impossible for her to support her family alone.

Taking advantage of Donger's slightly loose look, Shen's mother opened the box in her arms, reached out and opened the lock on the box, and turned over the things in the box.

What puzzled her was that the account book in the box was asked from Aunt Shen two days ago, and there was no other account book. She looked through the account books carefully to see if Ding Page had done anything in it, but what disappointed her was that Ding Page did nothing, but just put a few notes in the account book. She pulled out a piece of paper and looked at it carefully, but saw that there were some signs written like ghosts on it, which she had never seen before, and she didn't know what it meant.

Turning his hand and showing the paper in front of Donger, Shen's mother said in a low voice, "Dong'er, do you know what these marks mean?"

Donger shook her head blankly. She didn't understand. When the young lady read the account book, she never allowed them to wait around. She only called them when she had orders. How did she know what it meant?

Shen's mother estimated that Donger didn't have the courage to know and not report it. She couldn't guess what it meant, so she had to put the note back into the account book. Then he closed the lid of the box and said to Donger, "It's done. Send it quickly. Madam and the young lady are still waiting."

Donger got the box. Seeing that Shen's mother didn't do anything, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She nodded to Shen's mother and strode to the south courtyard.

Shen's mother entered the council hall behind Donger and quietly shook her head at Aunt Shen, meaning that she didn't find anything.

Aunt Shen believed in Shen's mother, so she didn't pay attention to Ding Yizi's behavior.
