Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Shen Binghuai also looked at the officials on one side. Just now, seeing the determined appearance of the eldest lady, he really thought that he couldn't find anything.

"Reporting to Mr. Shen, these banknotes were found in a box, and they were carefully hidden under the flannelette at the bottom of the box. The box was accidentally knocked by a subordinate while walking, and the contents inside were quite It's precious, my subordinates were afraid that they might damage something, so they hurriedly inspected it carefully, and found the banknote under the flannel."

An official came over with a box, and Jin Lan on the side yelled in surprise: "This box..."

Shen Binghuai looked over: "Do you know this box?"

Jin Lan nodded: "Returning to Mrs. Shen, this box is a meeting gift from our young lady to the lady after she returned home. At that time, the young lady took it out and checked it repeatedly, for fear of being impolite. The servant remembers it very clearly. It should be a pair of red gold and emerald-inlaid heads, and a set of small ruby ​​curtains, which cost several thousand taels of silver when they were bought."

The eldest lady turned her head and looked at Mu Yunyao, her sharp eyes seemed to be poisoned: "Mu Yunyao, you framed me, and you must have printed these bank notes in advance and hidden them in order to frame me today. to me!"

"Auntie, why do you miss me so much?" Mu Yunyao's tears just stopped falling again, "Since my father passed away, my mother and I have been alone, and we have struggled even after we arrived at Jingling City. God has mercy on us, let us get the help of noble people, and then slowly developed Niyunfang and Buxianlou, and life gradually stabilized. When we learned that we still have relatives, my mother and I were very happy I haven't slept well all day, these gifts are selected by us, no matter how much money it costs, I hope you will like it... But you are so suspicious of me..."

The eldest lady doesn't believe Mu Yunyao's words at all. She looks young and has a gentle and harmless temper, but since returning to the Su family, she has made every step steadily and never suffered a loss. Even she can't suppress it anymore, why are you still pretending to be pitiful here?

"Mu Yunyao, if you didn't frame me, why would the banknote appear in the box you sent me?"

Mu Yunyao looked at the eldest lady in disbelief, as if she didn't expect her to say something like this: "Auntie, could it be said that the bank note appeared in the box I gave you as a gift, and I put it in it deliberately to frame you?" According to your thinking, can I say that the fire in Baohua Temple was deliberately set by sister Yuyi, who wanted to burn me and my mother to help you get rich and kill? After all, when it was on fire, she She was also in the room, but she escaped unharmed, but my mother almost died."

"You're talking nonsense!" The eldest lady retorted sharply.

Mu Yunyao seemed to be angry, with a bit of sadness and anger on her face: "Auntie, so much silver did not fall from the sky out of thin air, but I earned it by making clothes one by one and selling a catty of tea leaves. , Every penny is hard-earned. The account books in Niyunfang and Buxian Building are clearly recorded, and you can check how much money you have earned and how much you have spent since it was opened."

Mu Yunyao wiped her tears, and her expression was even more sad: "Before I came to the capital, except for some silver taels to buy the meeting gifts, most of the rest were handed over to Mr. Li, Jingling Salt Transport Envoy, let him come Giving back to the people of Jingling City is well known, and I had no money at all, so how could I conjure another two hundred thousand taels of silver out of thin air to frame you?"

"Who knows if what you said is true or not? It has been less than a month since you donated 100,000 taels of silver to the people of Jingling City. If it hadn't been prepared in advance, could it be said that in this short period of time, You earned two hundred thousand taels of silver?"

"Nowadays, there are twelve Niyunfangs and eight Buxianlou tea houses in Jiangnan. Although Niyunfang takes a long time because of its delicate embroidery, each piece of clothing is very expensive. A set costs more than one thousand taels of silver, so the profit is quite generous. In addition, in Buxian Louzhong, the new autumn tea has just been harvested and roasted, and the sum of several places earned the two hundred thousand taels of silver. I can Collect the account books of Niyunfang and Buxianlou from all over the place, and let you check them carefully."

Da Furen's face was pale, and her heart was completely flustered. She knew that this was Mu Yunyao's situation, but no matter how she explained, no one believed her words. She opened her mouth a few times before she said weakly: "Who knows if what you said is true or not..."

Mu Yunyao was even more sad: "Auntie, the most important thing is that when I gave these meeting gifts, Nanny Zhou and others were also present, and they put the things in boxes with their own hands and carried them over. Nanny Zhou is from the Su family. The serving old man is gone, and the lives of the whole family are entrusted to the Su family, will she also help me to frame you?"

Mrs. Meng has always been good at playing tricks, and now she should also taste what it feels like to be wronged and unable to argue.

The eldest lady tried her best to explain, but her words were extremely pale: "Master, Master Shen, please believe me, I really didn't touch the two hundred thousand taels of silver, I really don't know why those silver notes appeared in the In the box in the warehouse!"

Mu Yunyao looked at the banknote in Shen Binghuai's hand, and then at the eldest lady who was struggling in vain, with tears in her eyes: "If the eldest aunt is really short of money, you can tell me directly, don't say it is Two hundred thousand taels, even if there is more, I can find a way to raise it... just for a little money, I have lost my conscience and ignored my family affection... Is it really worth it?"

Even Shen Binghuai, who had a hard heart, couldn't help but feel his nose ache when he heard this: This Miss Mu is really soft-hearted, but it's a pity that she regards the eldest lady as a relative, but the eldest lady wants her life for money! Speaking of which, Niyunfang and Buxianlou can earn so much silver taels in just one month, anyone would be tempted to do so.

Shen Binghuai put away the banknote and handed it to Mu Yunyao: "Miss Mu put away the banknote, this is not a small amount."

Mu Yunyao nodded and motioned for Jinqiao to help put away the banknotes, but Jin Lan also took two steps forward, helping Jinqiao check the banknotes in her hand one by one.

Seeing their actions, Mu Yunyao quickly said, "You two are too unruly, just keep the bank notes."

"But Miss, these banknotes are only 120,000 taels..." Jin Lan counted the banknotes carefully again as she spoke, "I did not count wrongly, it is indeed only 120,000 taels! There are 80,000 taels The bank notes are gone!"

Mu Yunyao bit her lower lip slightly, and turned her head to look at the eldest lady: "Auntie, I raised these two hundred thousand taels of silver notes, and those who want to open Niyunfang and Buxianlou don't dare to do so casually." I don't know if you can please return the eighty thousand taels of silver to me..."
