The Devious First-Daughter

Chapter 167 The Stained Account Book

Yulian became Aunt Xu, because there was the former Aunt Xu, and in order to distinguish them easily, Mrs. Tai asked people in the house to call them Big Aunt Xu and Little Aunt Xu respectively, and Yulian was naturally Little Aunt Xu.

The aunt is also an official concubine, Mrs. Tai and Ning Zuan decided to set up a few tables of wine at noon the next day, and held a simple happy event, which can be regarded as rectifying Yulian's name. Originally, it was enough for a few people in the house to eat together. Unexpectedly There were quite a few people who came.

General Ning Zu'an's identity was placed there, and the subordinates of the Ministry of War who got the news all came to ask for a cup of wedding wine.

They also brought their family members, and for a while, the outer and inner courtyards became lively.

Mrs. Tai has a noble status, so of course it is impossible to receive the family members of these subjects because of an aunt. This matter fell on Ning Qingshan and Ning Xueyan. Compared with Ning Xueyan's obscurity, Ning Qingshan's talent and reputation The virtuous name is spread far and wide, and it is the focus of attention of all the family members.

Everyone knows that the three girls of Huguohou's Mansion are virtuous and wise, righteous and filial, and they are still young, so they can keep the hardships of the nunnery, and they have been in meditation for three full years. It is not insincere, and they are beautiful and graceful. For a moment, everyone was paying attention to Ning Qingfan, almost like the stars were holding the moon.

Ning Qingshan is also very good at dealing with people, and she became the center of young wives and girls in a short time.

This time, Mrs. Tai gave Ning Qingshan the focus of the reception, and pushed her into the social circle with all her heart. Although the people who came were smaller than Ning Zu'an, there were many daughters from aristocratic families. She has never been in the circle of prostitutes of the aristocratic family, but because of her reputation, it is not difficult to integrate in again.

As for Ning Xueyan, Mrs. Tai ordered the management at the back, and the management of side dishes in the kitchen, so she almost didn't need to show up in front.

Fortunately, Ning Xueyan has managed the internal affairs very well these days, and she didn't feel too busy, so she let Lan Ning and Nanny Han take care of things for her, while she rested.

"Girl, why don't we go out, now the mansion is spreading the word about the third girl, who is talking about the third girl like a flower, no one thinks that you are the hero of this banquet!" Qingyu held several books , said angrily, what's more, when she was walking on the road, she even ran into a maid holding a ledger, saying that Mrs. Tai told Fifth Miss not to forget to read it when she was free.

"What are we going out for? Originally, this is Mrs. Tai taking advantage of the third sister." Ning Xueyan smiled slightly, and took Qingyu's account book, but there was a pool of smudges on the back of the account book, and her face darkened.

"Who gave you the ledger?"

Qingyu's gaze also fell on the ledger, seeing the obvious small pool of smudges on it, her anxious expression changed: "Girl, I don't know that maid, and I haven't seen it before. Your account book was given to you by Mrs. Tai in the past few days, so you didn't care, took it and left, and didn't find that the account book was dirty."

Qingyu was about to burst into tears. She had just taken five ledgers and stacked them up and down. There was no difference from usual, so she didn't pay attention to it, so she took it back. Who would have thought that one of the books would be stacked in the middle? , A large area was actually polluted. If Mrs. Tai finds out, she can't blame the girl.

"Isn't that maid from Xiangfu Garden?" A sharp cold light flashed in Ning Xue's eyes.

"Absolutely not, this servant must have never seen her before, but she knows her before, and she even called me by my name, saying that Xiang Miao from Mrs. Tai's yard asked her to bring her here. Originally, Xiang Miao came here by herself. Yes, the female family members in the backyard couldn't come to greet me, so she also went to help, so I changed people."

Qingyu looked for a handkerchief with red eyes, wanted to wipe off the oil stains, and replied that she found a snow-white handkerchief, and she was going to wipe it off.

"Don't wipe it. If you wipe it again, it will all rot." Ning Xueyan stretched out her hand to stop her, and looked at the smudge carefully. It smelled a little fishy, ​​dark, and it felt like soy sauce. The paper on the ledger at the bottom has been soaked, so if you don't look carefully, you won't notice it.

Because it is already rotten, if you still use ordinary methods to wipe it, not only will you not be able to wipe off the dirty things, but it will also rot the cover at the back of the ledger together with a few pieces of paper.

"Girl, this servant is going to find the person, and I don't believe that I can't find him." Qingyu gritted her teeth in hatred, threw the handkerchief in her hand, and was about to leave. If she found that maid, she would never let her go. Pushing a soiled ledger on a girl is really vicious.

"Qingyu, come back!" Ning Xueyan put down the book, although her face was gentle, there was a coldness in her eyes.

The puff pastry account book is not something that can be done by dropping it on the spot. The smell of soy sauce and fishy smell, it seems that only you can contaminate this kind of place, because today I am the one in charge of the kitchen. It is clearly a trap set for oneself, and the main purpose is oneself.

Originally, I wanted to live in peace and stability, but I didn't expect that someone just couldn't see me being quiet!

"Girl, the servant will definitely find someone, even if the entire Hou Mansion turns around, the servant will still find her." Qingyu thought that Ning Xueyan was worried that she would not find someone, so she stomped her feet and said in a voice of hatred.

No matter who this girl belongs to, she will definitely find her!

"What should I do after I find her?" Ning Xueyan asked softly.

"Let her apologize to the girl, and go to Mrs. Tai to explain that this account book is dirty by her, and she doesn't care about the girl's business." Qingyu raised her head as a matter of course and said, she was really angry, and she only wanted to catch it now. As for the maid, when Ning Xueyan asked, the words came out naturally.

"What if she doesn't want to?" Ning Xueyan said lightly.

"I don't want to, how is it possible, the girl is the master, she is a little girl, how dare she insult the master?" Qingyu's eyes widened, she was choked, and subconsciously retorted, in her consciousness, It's a big deal for a maid who dares to go against the master's will, let alone frame the master.

"If there were no such people, my mother wouldn't have left early!" Ning Xueyan said coldly.

"Slaves..." Qingyu was dumbfounded when she was asked, they all knew that Mrs. Ming's death was wronged, and Mrs. Ling must have ordered her to do it, "Then girl, what should we do now, and get it into Mrs. Tai's hands like this? , Maybe even the girl's right to be a housekeeper will be deprived!"

Qingyu is in a hurry, it's not about rubbing it, it's not about finding someone, what should I do.

Ning Xueyan looked at the tainted account book, Shen Ling, of course it couldn't be Madam Tai, if Madam Tai was dissatisfied, she could directly take away her right to manage affairs, there was no need to make all these things, besides Because Mrs. Tai is old and has no energy to take care of this matter, she pushed it on herself, so this matter cannot be Mrs. Tai.

Ning Zuan won't care about this!

Ling's family is now locked up in the Buddhist hall, taking care of herself, even Chen Nanny has been restrained.

Ning Ziyan was in the Xia Mansion, so she didn't come today, and even if she was there, it would be impossible for her to come up with such a roundabout scheme. The person who framed her not only knew the amount of books she took from Mrs. Tai every day, but also had He was able to get the account book from Mrs. Tai, and he even knew that he was in charge of the kitchen today.

I took the account book by myself, and the stains were from the kitchen. It was only natural for me, the kitchen manager, to get it on. Even if I pulled that maid out, no one would believe what I said.

Such delicate and profound thoughts are definitely not something ordinary people can do.

So the last candidate is Ning Qingfan!

A line of thought has slowly formed in her mind. Ning Qingfan knew at a glance that she was an ambitious woman. Such a perfect reputation, as a righteous daughter, won the attention of Mrs. Tai and Ning Zuan. Dare to humiliate wantonly, live more freely in the Huguohou's mansion than one's own, there is no way how to do it.

Ning Ziyan is married, Ning Yuling is no danger, Ning Lingyun is just a concubine, and she is obviously not someone who can be trampled on by her, so she has to deal with herself...

After returning home, Ning Jingshan couldn't tolerate herself anymore! The ambition is really big.

"Did Mrs. Tai go out to entertain guests?" Ning Xueyan looked away from the book, and her face returned to the usual indifference and tranquility.

"My servant just went to see Lan Ning. Lan Ning said that Mrs. Tai asked the kitchen to serve more dishes, which means that Mrs. Tai also has guests entertaining her. The servant thinks that maybe some old ladies from the house will come, and Mrs. Tai must receive them. Reception."

Although Qingyu didn't understand that Ning Xueyan was still in the mood to ask this at this time, she still answered carefully.

"Go to the kitchen to see what the Madam Tai ordered?" Ning Xueyan lowered her eyelashes, her eyes fell quietly out of the window, and she said methodically, "By the way, who came to the kitchen yesterday? What do you want, has anyone ordered braised fish, and then tell them, if there is fish in the kitchen today, they will all make fish soup!"

"Girl, do you want me to drop by the Luoyan Courtyard?" Qingyu asked, she also felt some meaning, looking at her girl's calm face, she also inexplicably calmed down.

"No, I can't find anything there." Ning Xueyan shook her head. A person like Ning Qingshan would not leave such obvious clues for others to investigate, so even if she found the maid herself, she would not be able to find anything. It must have nothing to do with her, and she will even wash herself clean when necessary.

"Yes, servant girl is going now," Qingyu nodded and was about to leave, but she was a little worried when she saw the stained account book. It was obvious that it could no longer be wiped off, but if she didn't wipe such a big stain, it was impossible for Mrs. Tai Seeing, "Girl, what about... this account book? After lunch, Mrs. Tai will definitely ask the girl to ask for the account book. Then, what should I do?"

"You go to the kitchen to do this first, then come back and tell me right away, and I'll do the rest." Ning Xueyan wanted to make up her mind in an instant, she nodded and urged Qingyu.

Qingyu also knew that she couldn't bear the burden at this time, so she nodded immediately, opened the door and ran out.

Ning Xueyan stood up, picked up the ledger on the table, carefully took out the dirty one, and the one stacked with it, found a towel to cushion it, walked out of the room with it, and turned out the door , went to the side room.

Lying in the wing room was Wang Nai who "couldn't" move...
