"What are you doing?" Zhou Niangzi screamed and ran in to stop them, "You are so bold, so bold..."

   But just as she ran up, she was pushed to the ground by the big fool. The big fool thought she was blocking the way, and glared at her fiercely: "Go away, it will delay the master to find the baby master to kill you!"

   "Do you still have Wang Fa?" Zhou Niangzi patted the ground and cried and shouted, "Come on, come and save me, someone has murdered, set fire to and robbed things at the feet of the emperor!"

   The silly big man couldn't stand the noise, so he stepped forward and picked her up and threw him out!

   Before coming, the elder brother repeatedly told them not to talk to them, they just need to do it.

   Mrs. Zhou was thrown out of the door and stuck to the ground with a "pop", just in front of Li Baolu's feet.

Zhou Niangzi looked up dizzy and saw Li Baolu looking at her with a smile, she still didn't know Li Baolu's identity, so she looked directly at the red peach behind her, staring at her fiercely: "Heart, What do you mean, you dare to bring people to my house to make trouble, don't think that you are the red man in front of the second lady and I can't do anything about you, my sister is still in the first lady's house!"

  Hong Tao glanced at her sympathetically and said, "What did Mrs. Zhou say, I have long stopped serving with the second lady, and I am now our wife's person."

   After saying that, he looked at Li Baolu.

   Zhou Niangzi stiffly followed her gaze and looked at Li Baolu.

Li Baolu looked down at her condescendingly, and said with a smile, "It turns out that Mrs. Zhou's sister is in the eldest lady's room, no wonder she will give the money to the eldest lady. It's just that this cloth house was distributed to me as early as the eighth day of the second lunar month. Before I can't control the matter, why are you sending money to the big house these two months? Those who don't know think that you are not my servants, but the big lady's, and this property is not mine, but the big house. "

   Zhou Niangzi's face was pale, and she looked at Li Baolu with trembling body, only one voice in her heart was shouting: This is the third grandma, this is the third grandma!

Li Baolu stepped over her body and walked in front of Liu Hong, reached out to help her up, her fingers were just on her wrist, and a weak pulse came from her fingertips, Li Baolu frowned slightly, and she lifted Liu Hong's chin , Seeing that her face was like golden paper, her eyes were dull, her complexion changed immediately.

   She stretched out her hand and squeezed her chin, her thumb pried open her mouth viciously, and her left hand stroked her back and rubbed it back and forth twice before exerting a little force...

  Liu Hong spat out a mouthful of blood with a "vomit", and the blood clot contained in the blood was very eye-catching.

   The boss changed his face when he saw it, and kicked Mrs. Zhou fiercely, "Bitch!"

"Ah—" Mrs. Zhou was kicked and slammed into the table and stool in the yard, crushing the table with a slap. She covered her kicked chest and vomited a mouthful of blood, watching in horror. them.

  Li Baolu helped Liu Hong to sit down on the steps, tilted her head and asked, "You are their little girl? What's your name?"

  Liu Hong looked at Li Baolu timidly, and said with a trembling voice, "The slave's name is Liu Hong, yes, it's the master's concubine..."

  Li Baolu watched the girl younger than her open her mouth, and after a while, she recovered her voice, "Really, beast!"

It's really a beast, she dares to swear that even if Liu Hong is malnourished and grows younger, she will definitely be no more than thirteen years old. Look at her face again, and then roll up her sleeves to see that it is either blue or red and swollen. Bar-shaped bruises, apparently from long-term abuse.

   Li Baolu turned her head away from Madam Zhou, who was curled up, and watched them quarrel with a sullen face.

  Liu Hong endured it, but still reminded her in a low voice: "Young master and young lady took the girl and servant to go shopping, and they will be back soon, you, you can go quickly..."

Before she was beaten by Mrs. Zhou until she lost consciousness. She didn't know what happened. Li Baolu beat the blood in her chest and slowly recovered. When she woke up, she found that the house had been turned upside down, so she didn't know who the person in front of her was. master of all of them.

  Li Baolu smiled and said softly: "It's good that they come back, so we don't have to go to them."

   Just as he finished speaking, there was an exclamation at the door. Two older children rushed in with a girl and a servant, and they were shocked and angry, "Who are you?"

Li Baolu didn't want to talk to the two little brats. With a wave of her hand, just after searching a room and changing places, Li Baolu rushed up and tied them all, threw them on the ground, and plucked them off their feet. Socks in their mouths.

   The four almost fainted by the smell.

   The neighbors have long been attracted by this movement, because they dared to watch from a distance because they didn't know the details. Seeing that they even tied their children, they could not help but go forward and ask, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

These people used to hide when they met, or they would pretend to be disguised, but today the fierce face shouted confidently: "These slaves and bullies have embezzled our owner's things. We were ordered to ask, why? , you want to be the master of our slaves?"

   Everyone immediately looked at Madam Zhou, "Miss Zhou, is this your boss?"

   Lady Zhou crawled to Li Baolu's feet with a pale face, and cried, "Madam, you must have been deceived. Our master has been working diligently in the management of the cloth house, and has never dared to slack off. There must be some misunderstanding in this!"

   Now everyone knew that the fierce face was telling the truth, and they took a step back a little embarrassedly, but they still felt that Li Baolu was too cruel.

  Li Baolu sneered condescendingly: "Conscientious and conscientious? He is conscientious, so you called him master in front of me? All of his slaves have become masters, so what is this wife?"

   Lady Zhou realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, she got up and slapped herself in the face, crying, "It was the servant who made a mistake, it was the servant who made a mistake..."

"No, you're right," Li Baolu looked up at the people and things in the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Isn't he a master now, his wife and children are wearing silk and satin, the family has a concubine, and he bought a girl and a daughter. Little servant, life is better than mine. As for me, when I hand over the cloth house to him, I will lose more than 600 taels of silver in a year. Where is this servant, he is my master, I Is he his slave?"

  Li Baolu showed anger on her face, kicked Mrs. Zhou who was hugging her leg aside, and said bitterly, "Who can afford such a servant, and it's almost the same as raising a master!"

As soon as everyone heard this, their eyes on the Zhou family changed, and they whispered: "Isn't the business of the cloth house run by his family always good, at least a thousand taels a year, how can they still lose more than 600 taels? "

   "It's strange that Dao is so angry. It turns out that he took the profits and made the owner lose money. It's not wrong to kill such a minion."

  Li Baolu didn't want to kill them. Killing slaves is also against the law. Although it's not a big crime, she has no interest in getting slapped and fined.

   As for being sent to prison, there is no need. With the means of the eldest lady, it is not too easy to get people out.

   She loves to call them, at least she doesn't want to let them go until she's out of breath.

The four of them quickly copied all the rooms, and then carried out the table and stool to put things, silk and satin clothes, and the last thing was cotton cloth, even the old clothes that looked like they were found by the four of them and put aside. , the reason is, "Madam, don't look at the old clothes, you can get some money at the pawnshop."

  Li Baolu: "..."

   Then there are all kinds of jewelry, ornaments and collections, but there is not much silver and silver notes. Obviously, he bought most of the money.

   "That's not right," Li Baolu said, rubbing her chin. "The latest date on the land deed is from the previous year. He definitely didn't buy the land with the money from last year and this year, and the amount of money in the box that he found in the cloth farm is also wrong."

   The fourth child smiled and took out a wooden sign from his arms, "Look, ma'am."

"what is this?"

   "This is one of the vouchers for depositing money in the Dechang silver account. The steward of your family has deposited money in the silver account, but he only has a name and does not take a banknote. He must obtain a special voucher before he can pick up the money at the door."

   "Just a wooden card?"

   "Of course not, the wooden sign is an identity certificate, and there should be bills for depositing money, similar to silver bills, but silver bills can be circulated outside, but bills cannot. You must use this wooden sign together to withdraw money."

   Five people traveled south and north, robbed and stole a lot of people, and naturally knew this, so after finding this wooden sign at the bottom of the cabinet, the fourth child knew how to use it.

   "But the second brother and I went through the house, and we didn't find the bills. I guess the bills were not hidden in the house." The fourth child felt a little regretful. If they could find the bills, then they would know how much money they had saved.

   There is a share of their money in it.

  Li Baolu returned the wooden sign to him and sneered: "No hurry, I can always find it."

   She glanced at it and said, "I rented a yard next door to my house, and moved all the valuable things back. Sell the rest at a bargain price, and all those that can't be sold will be taken to the pawnshop."

   The boss responded and pushed the crowd out, and soon found seven or eight coolies and asked them to put things on the cart and go.

   The fierce face pulled the man out and sneered: "Now I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins, staring at them and taking things back. If you dare to play tricks, hmph, don't forget that your contract of betrayal is still in the hands of your wife."

   The man nodded palely.

  The boss **** Zhou Niangzi's family and let the coolies **** them back, but carried Liu Hong on the trolley, and said solemnly: "Take them back too."

  Li Baolu took the rest to the next shop.

Because of their experience, they moved much faster, and they stopped talking nonsense like the first time. They rushed into the store and searched like a wolf like a tiger. Run to the house of the steward.

Because they were all hired horse-drawn carts and mule carts, the speed was fast enough. Before dark, the seven people plundered all three shops in the capital, and all the family members of the stewards were taken to Lingsheng Street by hired coolies. Rent yard.

  The three stewards who were resting in the inn heard the wind, and they rushed home to check, and found that the empty home was struck by lightning, and then rushed to Lingsheng Street with red eyes.

The other six stewards whose homes were far away were also uneasy, and wanted to leave the city to go back, Erlin looked at them and sneered: "You just go, the madam said, as long as you go out of the city gate, the madam will take your whole family out. Reported as a fugitive slave."

   He sneered: "My wife hired someone to arrest you, but I want to see where you can escape with your family?"

   The six fell to the ground and cried, "We've been wronged, we've always been loyal to our wife, and we never dared to slack off."

   "Whether you are loyal or not, Mrs. is self-determined. If you are really good, the wife will not treat you badly, but if you are not good, you will never try to deceive our wife."
