The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 1014 Disposal (3)

 After traveling all morning, Mo Yan and others were very hungry. After refusing to be served by the Zhao family, a few people wiped out all the dishes on the table in just two seconds. After the bowls and chopsticks were removed, the second daughter-in-law of the Zhao family brought up a fruit plate with washed and cut pears.

This pear tastes as good as Mojia's, and the varieties of fruits are incomparable. However, not everyone has fruits to eat after meals. Pears are very good to relieve tiredness.

After finishing the pears, the younger ones couldn’t wait to urge their father to go to the garden with them. Mo Qingze was very interested in the layout and decoration here, so he took a few children out.

Mo Yan was still waiting to see the accounts, but he didn't want to go because the sun was too bright at noon. After Zhao Dafu finished lunch, he sent the account book to her.

There is a thick stack of account books, including not only the thin one that recorded Zhuangzi's income and expenditure from the day Zhuangzi was given to Mo Yan, but also dozens of accounts including Zhuangzi's production income and expenditure in previous years.

The reason why Mo Yan wanted to look at these old account books was, firstly, she wanted to know the general situation of Zhuangzi's income and expenditure in previous years so that she could have a good idea. Secondly, she also wanted to know whether Zhao Dafu had done any tricks and whether he was worthy of her trust. . Although it is difficult to tell anything from the account books, there are some clues.

Mo Yan had no intention of settling these old scores, asking Zhao Dafu to vomit out what he had eaten, and then sending him to the government. She just wanted to see if he was really greedy, to what extent was he worth it? Not worthy of her use.

 In the northwest corner, there is a row of houses. This is the servants' room, where twenty members of the Zhao family live. At this time, except for a few children who were too young to make up their minds, adults and half-grown children were all gathered in the same room.

 The atmosphere in the room was very solemn. The Zhao family looked at me and me, but no one spoke. There was deep worry in their eyes.

After a long time, the timid Mrs. Meng spoke up and broke the silence in the room: "Old man, if you give all those account books to the county prince, will the county prince see anything?"

The rest of the Zhao family all looked at Zhao Dafu. They naturally knew what their father (father-in-law) had done over the years. If not for this, how could their family have such a prosperous life today.

It’s just that they only know that after the autumn harvest every year, the tenants will come to the door with chickens, ducks and fish with a smile. They don’t know how many false accounts their father (father-in-law) has made over the years and how much benefit they have gained from it.

Looking at his nervous wife and children, Zhao Dafu sighed, his wrinkled old face full of worry: "The Junjun has been suspicious from the moment Chunhua opened the door, no matter whether she can get it from the account book You see, our whole family will not end well."

Even though he didn’t know his new master well, the mature Zhao Dafu could tell that he was someone who could not get rid of the grain in his eyes. Even if no evidence can be found, there is a reason to hide suspicion in the heart. No, even if there is no reason, they can still deal with their family. Who let them be just slaves whose deeds are in the hands of their master?

“Dad, what should we do?” Zhao Chunhua, who was the first to reveal her fault in front of Mo Yan, asked in panic. In addition to being afraid of being betrayed, she was also worried that her family would blame her for the incident.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Dafu's eldest son, Zhao Boss, pointed at his sister and accused him: "What to do, what to do, you still have the nerve to ask what to do now? I reminded you not to be too showy before, but now I've slapped the county prince in the eyes, let's The whole family has been deceived by you."

Zhao Chunhua's face turned pale. In addition to self-blame, she also felt aggrieved: "How did I know that the Junjun suddenly came to the door? If I had known she was coming, I wouldn't have dressed up like that! In the final analysis, the Junjun doesn't trust our family, otherwise why? Why don’t you send someone over to tell us in advance?”
