Luo Ran looked at Luo Ruxue, and Luo Ruxue pretended not to notice, snuggled next to the old lady, and caressed the old lady's back filially.
Six-year-old Luo Ruxuan was young. She used to listen to her aunt whispering in her ears every day, and she didn't like this eldest sister who had just returned. Just looking around now, they have a aunt, a aunt, a second sister and a third sister in the second room.
There are three aunts and four sisters in the third uncle's room. But there is only one eldest sister.
The little girl pursed her lips and whispered: "They said that the eldest sister was using the money and fabrics from the house to not make skirts for everyone."
Before she could finish her words, Aunt Fang covered her mouth.
Aunt Fang smiled coquettishly: "Miss, don't take it to heart, this damn girl knows nonsense."
Luo Honghui on the side was feeling unwell today and did not go to school. Seeing the excitement, he came with his aunt.
Seeing my aunt covering my sister's mouth, she sneered: "What you just said was much more lively than this. Why can't my sister just say a word?"
Aunt Fang slapped Luo Honghui on the head: "Shut up! Do you have the right to speak here!"
Luo Honghui covered his head and said, "If I don't have a share, is it possible that you still have a share?"
Aunt Fang was stunned for a moment, then turned to cover her handkerchief and cried: "You heartless person, I worked so hard to raise you like this, but in the end you despise me. If you don't like me, just go with whoever you think is good." Who are you looking for to be your mother! Why hang around in front of my eyes all day long..."
Mrs. Li's forehead was bulging. She deliberately brought everyone here to make the matter bigger, just to force Luo Ran to pay some money. Who would have thought that one of her own people started to quarrel before they got down to business.
"Okay, stop arguing! Honghui, after all, Aunt Fang is your aunt. Do you talk to your biological mother like this?"
Li shouted.
Luo Honghui was not afraid of this aunt at all. He frowned and said, "Stop pretending to be a good person here. Don't you want me to have a relationship with my aunt? I know what your intention is. Isn't it just that you want to adopt your eldest brother to your eldest uncle?" In his name, he would like to conquer the title, and then he asked me to be a stepping stone for him..."
Snapped!
Li's whole body was shaking with anger, and her palms were numb because of the excessive exertion.
"Hui'er!"
Aunt Fang screamed, hugged Luo Honghui in her arms, touched his face, and said distressedly: "Let me see, does it hurt? It's swollen! Doctor, call the doctor!"
Luo Honghui pushed Aunt Fang away and shouted: "I don't need you to worry about it!"
He turned around and ran out.
"You, look at the good son you raised!"
After a long while, Mr. Li squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.
The old lady almost lost her breath and pointed at a circle of people: "Everyone, you are really trying to piss me off to death!"
Luo Ran sat there like an outsider, as if everything in the room had nothing to do with her.
In her previous life, her father adopted Luo Hongjun after she got married. Luo Hongjun didn't hit her at that time. In his father's eyes, he was still an obedient but slightly naughty nephew.
Later, I don’t know how my grandmother persuaded my father. It must have been similar to Ran’er’s words without the support of my brothers.
After adopting Luo Hongjun, his father gave up all thoughts of marrying again and devoted all his attention to the coastal defense of Dajin.
In this life, from the beginning of her rebirth, all the trajectories have changed. Without her consent, her father would not adopt Luo Hongjun, but now his father is being targeted by that poisonous snake-like man.
Thinking of this, Luo Ran put her hand on her lower abdomen unconsciously. She stared at the tea in her hand, hoping that it would be a strong medicine and the child would be gone after drinking it.
No one can threaten his father anymore.
"Ran'er!"
"Sister!"
"Miss……"
Youqing touched Luo Ran lightly.
Luo Ran raised his head and looked at her blankly.
Youqing said hurriedly: "The old lady is talking to you."
Luo Ran then turned his head: "Grandma, what did you just say?"
The old lady was so angry that she fell back and kept talking for a long time, but no one even listened to a single word she said.
Luo Ran said apologetically: "I'm sorry, grandma. Yesterday, my granddaughter thought hard all night about the cloth and silver, so she didn't sleep well and was a little dizzy."
Luo Ran rubbed his forehead and continued: "Since the family is in such a difficult situation now, I don't want my granddaughter's two sets of clothes. Seeing that my sister is in urgent need, let's get them first."
Mrs. Li finally comforted Aunt Fang. When she heard what Luo Ran said, she saw that her idea was going to be in vain. She immediately answered: "Ran'er, what are you talking about? How can the dignified Marquis Mansion be so unlucky?" If I can’t even make two sets of clothes, won’t I be laughed at if word spreads about it?”
Luo Ran said: "But the accountant..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she was answered by Aunt Du: "Miss, have you made a mistake in your calculation? There is indeed a fixed amount of cloth and silver in the house every season, but after the old lady made a statement yesterday, the old slave specially ordered the accountant to transfer Li The master of the house calculated the excess, and Miss Youqing took it away at the same time."
The implication behind the words is that Luo Ran either didn't calculate clearly or embezzled the money.
Luo Ran looked at Aunt Du and Mrs. Li, then at her grandmother, and suddenly smiled. It turned out that they had teamed up to dig a hole waiting for them. Even if she calls all the accounting clerks, they will insist that Youqing took it away.
As for the list, I forgot something. They must have planned it early in the morning and got a copy of the yin and yang list, even if they found the copy in Grandma Du's hand. It must be different from the one in my hand.
But they thought it was too simple, or they thought she was too useless.
Even if she is weak-tempered, even if she has not returned to Beijing for fifteen years, she is in charge of everything in Jiangnan. Since she was ten years old, her father has given her several shops to train her.
It's just that she didn't say it, or she didn't have the chance to be a housekeeper in her previous life.
Luo Ran smiled and said, "You are green again."
Youqing took out a list from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Luo Ran opened it and looked at it, then handed it to Aunt Du: "Aunt Du, look, this is the list that was sent to Ningxiang Courtyard?"
Sure enough, Mammy Du took it, pretended to look at it carefully, and shook her head: "To answer the eldest lady, this was not sent by the old slave. The list sent by the old slave contained one-third more fabric and silver than this. "
Luo Ran nodded, his expression unchanged: "In that case, would you please take out the list, and let's compare it."
Just as Mammy Du was about to speak, Luo Ran said again: "Don't say you can't find it. The servants always receive things in two copies, one from the master and one from the accounting office. If you can't find it, then... Grandma has neglected her duty."
Aunt Du smiled and said: "How could it be possible? The eldest lady is worrying too much. I will ask someone to get it right now."
The room fell silent for a moment.
Youqing was a little nervous. The list was obviously sent by Aunt Du, but she didn't admit it now. The money is small, but the reputation of the lady is great!
If you are accused of stealing money from the public, even if you get married, you will still be criticized in your husband's family.
Luo Ran didn't know Youqing was worried. She was more concerned about another thing now.
She looked at Mrs. Li with a smile and said, "Second Aunt, what's the adoption thing that Third Brother mentioned just now? Why have I never heard Dad talk about it?"
