Chapter 19

Murong Xue stood up and Shi Shi ran walked out. Her gorgeous long skirt brushed the smooth ground and drew a long trace.

"Sister, where are you going?" Murong Ye looks at her back as she walks away. He is puzzled.

"Go to yutangyuan and see my stepgrandmother!" Murong snow does not stop, the head also does not return to answer.

Sister and grandmother's relationship has always been bad, how suddenly think of going to Yutang courtyard?

Murong Ye is full of mist: "sister, I'll go with you."

"No, you wait here for me to come back." Murong Xue went to the Yutang courtyard to teach Du a lesson. If Murong Ye followed her, it would not be convenient for her plan to be implemented.

Murong Ye frowned and reluctantly took back the steps he had taken. He said dejectedly, "good!" According to his sister's meaning, it seems that he needs to discuss something personal with his grandmother. If it is not convenient for him to follow him, he will not go. Instead, he will send someone to watch outside the Yutang courtyard. If they have a dispute, he will not be late.

Yutang courtyard is the courtyard where Du's family lives all the year round. There are servant girls and mammy all over the place. Seeing Murong Xue coming from afar, a mammy rushed into the house and reported to Du!

When Murong Xue walked into the Yutang courtyard, the third-class maids and the coarse maids all swept the yard and performed their duties. A second-class servant girl came forward and politely blessed her. She said with a smile: "the old lady is in the inner room. Please, miss!"

Murong Xue gave a faint hum, slowly crossed the curtain made by the maid and walked into the room. Du was leaning on the soft couch in front of the window, leaning against a large pillow, eating a bowl of milk soup slowly! The light gold sunlight shines on the sapphire in front of her forehead, reflecting the dazzling light.

Du Shi saw murongxue, raised his eyelids and said, "what's wrong?"

Murong snow gently smile, leisurely way: "it's not a big deal, brother want to go dog fighting, no money, I come to find stepgrandmother to borrow some."

Du's act of eating milk suddenly stops: Shen's (murongxue's mother) dowry has been cleverly spent by her. She asked Xiangqiao to disclose the silver to Murong ye in order to let Murong ye ask Murong Xue for money. Murongxue can't get so much silver. Shouldn't she pawn Shen's dowry to make money? How can I borrow money from her?

The legitimate daughter of the Grand Marquis's house is not afraid of ridicule.

However, in this way, she can ask for Shen's dowry openly: "how much?"

"100000 taels!" Murong Xue said softly, so he sighed helplessly: "my brother has always been extravagant in spending money. This 100000 liang of silver is only enough for him to spend 10 days at most..."

At the bottom of Du's eyes, there is a sneer at Murong Ye. She knows better than anyone how much he has lost his family. The more dandy he is, the more ignorant he is, the more beneficial it is for her. Naturally, she is willing to connive. However, the premise of her connivance is that she does not harm her own interests.

"One hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small sum. If you change it into cash silver, you can load several carts. There is no blood relationship between us. I'll lend it to you. It's not very good."

Murong snow smile Ying Ying Ying: "I can give you an IOU, wait for my brother to win silver, immediately return with interest."

Du's eyebrows raised and looked at her, and said coldly, "if Murong ye can never win back 100000 Liang silver, will you never pay back the money?"

Murong Xue blinked: "what does stepgrandmother think of things?"

Du thought for a while, so he said carelessly, "take a box of your mother's dowry as a mortgage. After you win back 100000 liang of silver, you can change that box of dowry back."

Murong Xue laughed coldly. As expected, Du's eyes were on her mother's dowry. Each box of dowries was worth 2.3 million taels of silver. Du actually wanted to buy it with 100000 Liang silver. It was beyond his ability and a fantastic dream!

"I remember that there were several dowry shops on my mother's dowry list. Now my stepgrandmother is in charge of them."

Du was stunned and suddenly jumped to the shop from silver and dowry. Murong Xue's topic was really fast.

At that time, Shen married several shops. The name and location of the shop were written on the dowry list. She could not deny it and said, "what is it?"

"Those shops are all located in the prosperous area, and the profit in ten years will be tens of thousands of Liang silver at least..." The next words, Murong snow did not say, looking at her with a smile: in the past ten years, the original owner did not see a cent of the profit of the shop, which was completely swallowed by Du.

"The six shops are not well managed, and few people patronize them. The maximum profit of each shop is one or two thousand Liang a year, barely enough to maintain the expenses of the Marquis's residence..." Du's face did not change and he lied.

"Is it?" Murong snow looked at Du Shi and said carelessly, "please take out the account book of the shop by your step grandmother and let me have a look."

"It's not the beginning of the month or the end of the month. The account books are in the hands of the shopkeepers. I don't have them here." Du's words were understatement, and her mouth curved with a pleasant radian: she had never liked the stepgranddaughter in front of her. Whenever she saw her step granddaughter feel frustrated, she would feel very happy!"Somebody, go and call all the six shopkeepers of my mother's dowry shop, and let them take the account books of the past ten years!" Murong Xue ordered in a cold voice, and her eyes were cold: Du didn't mean that the shop was making little profit. She tried the six shopkeepers in front of Du's to see if the shop was really less profitable or if someone had done something wrong.

"Yes The tea outside the house took orders.

Du's face was suddenly black and was about to drip ink. She disobeyed her own meaning and doubted what she had said. She asked the shopkeepers to bring the account books, but she doubted that the accounts of the shop were wrong. If you want to check, you can see what problems she can find out if you want to verify them.

Half an hour later, the shopkeepers came to the Yutang courtyard one after another, and Hou was in the outer room.

Murong snow opened the curtain and went out: "everyone has been waiting for a long time!"

The shopkeepers raised their heads and saw a young woman coming. Her bright face and delicate bun made her eyes full of amazement and enchantment. She was smiling, fresh and natural, but her pupils were deep to the extreme. She was vaguely possessed of magic. The breathtaking momentum made people breathe for a moment.

the shopkeepers' obsessed mind was instantly awake and quickly bent Waist salute: "see you, miss!"

Murong snow gently smile: "you don't have to be polite, sit down and taste tea. I'll look at the account book first. If you don't understand, please ask you again!"

A middle-aged shopkeeper with two moustaches under his nose stepped forward and said with a smile: "elder sister and elder sister are serious. If you don't understand anything, please ask me. Your humble position will tell you everything."

"Yes, yes, yes, you are welcome! Just tell me The other five shopkeepers were also smiling.

Murong Xue smiles slightly. Shi Shilan sits in front of the round table full of account books. He picks up the top one and looks through it carefully.

The shopkeepers sat in front of the long table not far away and tasted the fragrant tea slowly. The huge outer room was quiet for a moment.

The sun is rising higher and higher, Murong snow is still sitting still, looking at the account book, the more look, the frown more tight.

The shopkeepers were bored, holding their heads in their hands and half narrowing their eyes, as if they were sleeping.

Suddenly, "pa!" The sound of a crisp sound came into my ears. The sleepy shopkeepers woke up in a moment and looked up in panic. Murong Xue closed the account book and looked at them angrily
