Chapter 578
Chapter 578 You will always have to pay back
Fang Lanxin sat there alone for a long time after Director Qi left, thinking about how to resolve this matter.
At first, he looked at the steward's cleverness and said good things to him in front of his aunt. Later, he found a way to create an opportunity, and his aunt promoted him to be a steward.
Over the years, she has received a lot of benefits from Director Qi. At the beginning, Director Qi was afraid that he was looking for someone to rely on, thinking that if something happened, someone would help him intercede.
In the beginning, they made small troubles and greed for dozens of taels every month. Later, the appetite of two people with similar smells became bigger and bigger. This greed lasted for five years.
She didn't know why Manager Qi didn't have a problem when her cousin checked the accounts, but there was definitely something tricky in it.
Before and after, Qi Guanshi sent over 6,000 taels of silver, but the money was almost spent by herself. Now let her prepare so much cash.
It's not that she didn't think about not admitting it, but Guan Qi is a good person, and her expenses over the years are also there. If the matter is really serious, you can find out at a glance, and it will be even more shameful at that time.
After thinking about it for a long time, I can only sell the store I bought privately and see how much money I can get. If I can't, I can only pawn some of the jewelry I bought to show off.
With a heavy heart, he got up and walked to his own courtyard, but at the second gate, he met Shen Qiulu, the elder sister-in-law who was about to go out.
This Shen Qiulu's maiden family is also a merchant. Whether it is dowry or daily expenses, she is better than her in everything. Although her maiden family is average, but with the general's mansion as its backing, it can be regarded as equal.
The sister-in-law was unavoidable to compare before, and it was not a day or two for her to compete secretly with this sister-in-law, so she responded when Director Qi came to the door.
At the beginning, I was still guilty and scared. I was afraid that the General’s Mansion would find out that it was fine after a few months, and my courage and appetite were getting bigger and bigger. Still revealed.
At the same time, Cuixiang, the maid next to the old lady of the General's Mansion, has been walking around in the servant's room restlessly.
She just went to the front yard to deliver things, and accidentally overheard the conversation between Butler Shen and the housekeepers surnamed Li. She knew that something had happened to Guan Qi, and the young lady found out that he had embezzled money from the house.
She was so frightened that she almost threw the things in her hands. The account book that Manager Qi sent to the old lady every month was helped by herself. Manager Qi gave her some jewelry in private every month. As long as the number is right, usually one eye is opened and one eye is closed.
But now that such a thing has happened, will he be implicated, and whether Qi Guanshi will say anything unfavorable to him.
Originally, I wanted to ask him about the situation, but after turning around, I couldn't find out where others were, so I had to go back to the lower room.
Cuiyu came in and saw her circling the room: "Cuixiang, you're in the room, why didn't you call me back after I called for a long time?"
Cuixiang was upset, and was not in the mood to deal with Cuiyu who came in: "I was distracted just now, didn't hear it, call me something?"
Cuiyu gave her a strange look: "Yes, the old lady asked you to come over."
When Cuixiang heard this, her heart almost jumped out of her throat: "Cuiyu, do you know what the old lady is looking for from me?"
Cuiyu always felt that Cuixiang was weird today: "You don't give the old lady a massage every day at this hour, and when I don't see you today, Wei Wei only asked me to call you over."
Seeing that her face was not good, she added another sentence: "Cuixiang, are you not feeling well?"
