She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

While the two were talking, Nanny Xin walked in. She glanced at Qiao Zhenzhen and hesitated to speak.

Wu said: "If you have anything to say, just tell me and let Yu'er listen."

My daughter is getting married, so we can no longer treat her like an ignorant child who hides everything.

It's time for her to learn how to handle housework.

"It's Lanyuan's business."

Wu frowned subconsciously, "Why don't we stop talking about this, boss?"

I heard before that there was a commotion in Lanyuan over the Tingbizitang incident, and the boss was forced to sleep in the outer courtyard.

This was a good time. The unruly maid found a loophole and almost made a joke.

After that incident, the boss returned to live in Lanyuan. It has only been a few days, so what trouble happened again.

"It's not Grandma's business, it's Mama Bai's business."

"Mama Bai?"

Qiao Zhenzhen didn't speak, but her ears pricked up.

"Yes, Mama Bai has a son named Bai Gui, who has been involved in gambling recently."

Wu was surprised, "Betting? Is Mama Bai's son in charge of the dowry outside the boss's family?"

"Yes, the farm shop outside Grandma is being taken care of by novice stewards."

Wu pursed her lips and said, "Her son is in debt outside?"

Grandma Xin nodded, leaned into Wu's ear and said, "She said she owes the casino two thousand taels."

"Two thousand taels?!"

Wu was too shocked to suppress her voice and glanced at her daughter subconsciously.

Qiao Zhenzhen blinked her innocent eyes and asked cooperatively: "Mom, is two thousand taels a lot?"

But before Wu could answer, she continued: "You said that ordinary people can live a month with two taels of silver, but not two thousand taels can live a thousand months. A year only lasts twelve months..."

She clapped her hands and said, "Oh my god, isn't this just money for a lifetime -"

Qiao Zhenzhen shook her head like a rattle, "This little white manager is really..., the second brother only earns two taels of silver a month, he is really brave."

With the blessing of her performance, Wu's expression became even more disgusted.

Originally, as the Mo family's fortunes increased year by year, a thousand taels of silver was not that serious in her mind.

"The girl is absolutely right," said Nanny Xin, "I think when my eldest grandma married into our family, her dowry was very expensive, but it was only two thousand taels of silver."

Qiao Zhenzhen looked at Aunt Xin and asked curiously: "How can I, my sister-in-law, get the confidence to lose so much money in gambling?"

Aunt Xin snorted: "God knows."

Qiao Zhenzhen looked at Wu and said hesitantly: "There won't be anyone doing anything wrong outside based on my father's name, right?"

"Snapped--!"

Mrs. Wu slapped the small kang table and shouted: "Let's see who dares!"

Qiao Zhenzhen touched the Wu family thoroughly.

She is a traditional woman of this era who is hard-working, tough and kind-hearted. She can swallow no matter how much she suffers or suffers. She hopes that everything will be prosperous for her family, so she loves and agrees on many things, and does not want to intensify conflicts. Even when encountering conflicts, her first reaction is to escape.

This may have something to do with Mo Qingyang's situation at home in his early years.

The Mo family was poor at first, so they wanted to provide the seed for studying, and there were two older brothers.

Mo Qingyang was selected as a scholar at the age of thirteen and is a well-known young genius.

But it wasn't until she was twenty-seven that she passed the imperial examination. In the intervening ten years, Qiao Zhenzhen didn't believe that she had never received any cold words.

Moreover, with Mo Qingyang's physique, it was difficult to do farm work. After Wu married, she basically supported the family.

For so many years, even if the eldest brother and the second brother have no objection to supporting the youngest, how can the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law also have no objection?

If the Wu family had been petty-minded and hot-tempered, the Mo family would have been separated long ago. If Zhongtian Wen arranged it this way, it would be great, but it would be a devastating blow to Mo Qingyang's career.

After all, this is still an era based on filial piety.

It is everyone's default rule that parents should not separate when they are together. What others see is not how many grievances you have suffered. No matter how many grievances you suffer, your parents have given you life, and you should bear it.

There is absolutely no comparison between ancient and modern values.

Otherwise, where would there be so many incredible filial piety stories handed down?

Fortunately, Mo Qingyang did not let down his wife after he came forward.

Qiao Zhenzhen's words really hit Wu's side.

Wu Shihei said with a stern face, "What did Mama Bai say?"

"How could she come up with so much money? Naturally, she begged the grandma to help her son fill the hole. She said that the casino people had told him that if he didn't pay back the money, he would be killed."

"Sister-in-law, did you help?"

Mother Bai nodded.

"But isn't my sister-in-law's dowry not big? Where will she get the money to fill this hole?"

Aunt Xin glanced at Wu silently.

Mrs. Wu was silent for a long time and then told Aunt Xin, "Let someone go check it out."

Aunt Xin responded and left.

Seeing that Mrs. Wu was unhappy, Qiao Zhenzhen comforted her for a few words, then excused herself to ask Mo Qingyang about her homework.

After leaving the door, Qiao Zhenzhen exhaled and sighed in her heart, being a Bai Lian is quite tiring.

It's just that what happened to Mama Bai's son was very strange, neither early nor late, the time was just right.

Qiao Zhenzhen rolled her eyes lightly, walked briskly to the outside of Mo Qingyang's study, and asked the guard guarding the door: "Is my father busy?"

The guard shook his head and nodded again, "Mr. Xu is inside."

"Senior Brother Xu?" Qiao Zhenzhen said, "Then I'll wait in the yard."

Just when she finished speaking, Mo Qingyang's voice came from the study, "Is Yu'er outside?"

Qiao Zhenzhen raised her voice, "Dad, it's me."

"come in."

The guard opened the door for Qiao Zhenzhen.

Seeing her come in, Xu Qingjie stood up from the seat opposite Mo Qingyang, crossed his hands and bowed, "Junior sister, be well."

Qiao Zhenzhen gave a standard blessing ceremony and said, "How are you, Senior Brother Xu?" Then she turned to Mo Qingyang and said, "How are you, Dad?"

Mo Qingyang smiled slightly and nodded, "Here he comes."

"Well, dad is helping senior brother read the article again?" Qiao Zhenzhen said with a smile, "That's because I'm disturbing you."

"Don't disturb me," Xu Qingjie said. Feeling that he was too hasty in his answer, he softly slowed down and said again, "Don't disturb me."

Mo Qingyang asked: "Have you finished talking to your mother?"

"Well, that's it." Qiao Zhenzhen paused and said, "Are dad and senior brother still busy?"

"Is something wrong?"

"It's nothing serious. If anything happens to you, I will..."

Xu Qingjie looked at Mo Qingyang and said, "Junior sister, if you have something to ask me, please come back another day."

Qiao Zhenzhen waved her hand and said, "No, no, I'll just tell you a few words. Your business is more important."

Mo Qingyang was very busy with official duties and didn't have much time to teach students. Xu Qingjie must have made an appointment in advance. She didn't have much important things to do, so how could she casually take up other people's tutoring time.

Mo Qingyang said: "Well, you can wait in the yard during the festival."

Xu Qingjie bowed and saluted, and when he passed by Qiao Zhenzhen, he pursed his lips and smiled at her.

Every time she saw his smile, Qiao Zhenzhen couldn't help but smile.

Mo Qingyang's gaze flickered past the two of them.
