Although it basically just serves as a background board, when the family of three returned to the small hall where Laiwang worked, they all showed signs of fatigue.

After all, they appear to be members of the victims' alliance, but in fact they are the 'perpetrators' who are adding fuel to the flames.

Since ancient times, when these two-faced people encounter a big situation, how can they not be upset?

Of course, Laishun still insisted that he was mainly hungry.

He randomly caught a strong man outside the door and asked him to go to the kitchen to help his family pass the food.

While welding his buttocks to the armchair, he curiously asked his mother how the big drama started today and what happened to the mistress's clean accounts.

"If you don't talk about her thoughtfulness, even ten men can't compare to her!"

With this in mind, Mrs. Xu became much more excited and gesticulatingly told the whole story.

But it turned out that this morning, because Mrs. Xu was not on duty at Ermen Luding, she went to Wang Xifeng's Courtyard to say hello as usual.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Rui's family was also in the courtyard.

After a few words of discord between the two, Wang Xifeng came out of the room and asked, "Do you men have any obvious shortfalls in your accounts?"

Mrs. Xu and Zhou Rui's wife were both surprised, but Ms. Xu had expected it, so she rushed to express that there was no problem in her family.

Later, Zhou Rui's wife also hurriedly expressed her position, saying that her husband had always been diligent and diligent and had never made any shortcomings.

After receiving the answer, Wang Xifeng went to Mrs. Wang's courtyard with a large number of account books without saying a word, and then her aunt and nephew went to Mrs. Jia's room.

"I was stunned."

At this point, Mrs. Xu covered her heart and said fearfully: "It's just our family's business. How can Second Mistress's stupid and bad debts stand up to the investigation? It wasn't until halfway through the audit that I understood what she had in mind!"

Laishun quickly joined in the fun and said, "What's her idea?"

"Do you still remember the time when the eldest son borrowed money and promised a 30% profit?"

"Of course I remember, but what's the connection between this?"

"Of course it's related!"

Mrs. Xu said: "I only found out today that two days before the relationship, she deliberately passed this private loan over to the public, saying that it was the capital that the eldest son had embezzled on behalf of the Wang family for the tire business."

After all, Laishun was also a businessman before. When he heard this, he suddenly realized and blurted out: "She wants to use the 30% profit to make up for the shortfall in her account?!"

Wang Xifeng released 100% of the silver, but the IOU procedure stated it was 130%. When hands were changed, there was naturally an extra "30% of the silver" on the account.

And considering the marriage relationship between the Jia and Wang families, and in order to do business together, it is normal for them to temporarily split some "without interest" funds.

but……

Considering how greedy Wang Xifeng was, she was willing to use the 30% of the profit to repair the hole. She was probably forced to have no choice, so she broke her teeth and swallowed it.

"wrong!"

Lai Wang, who had been silent at this time, suddenly shook his head and said: "Although the interest was agreed upon at the beginning and the eldest son also signed the deed - but according to his usual behavior, most of the time he can rely on this money.

In the end, let alone 30% profit, the principal may not even be recovered."

this……

Laishun's eyes widened. If this was the case, there might be another way to interpret it.

Perhaps when Wang Xifeng first lent out the money, she had the idea of ​​​​taking three points of profit to make up for the shortfall!

Personally, the younger sister might not be able to do anything to her elder brother, but if it were public versus public, the Wang family would not be able to part with this capital.

Even if he withholds 30% of the profit, the money is already "laying" in the accounts, which is enough for Wang Xifeng to wipe out the debt.

Especially in the current situation, her second grandmother made it clear that she was forced to take this step. Naturally, her parents would not be able to criticize her harshly for this, but would try their best to help her smooth things over.

"etc!"

A thought suddenly occurred to Laishun, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Could it be that she started this rumor?!"

If this is the case, this woman’s scheming methods are too deep!

But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Laishun himself denied this possibility: "No, if she is really the mastermind behind the scenes, how can she dare to go to the old lady and force her to have a baby? If anything is really found out, wouldn't it be a trap for herself?"

Lai Wang nodded: "Maybe it's just a coincidence."

After a pause, he added with a wry smile: "Our family had to take dangerous measures in order to attack the nobles. How could others choose this method of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to themselves for no reason?"

This is also true.

Lai Shunyin smiled and said: "So Dad, please relax. Who would have thought that those rumors deliberately targeting the Wang family would be spread by our 'Wang family' ourselves?"

…………

In the next two days, a rectification and picket movement was launched in Rongguo Mansion.

The inner court was dominated by Lai Jiajie and Zhou Rui's wife, and the outer court was led by Lin Zhixiao and Lai Wang. Each of them dug into the ground and vowed to dig out the origin of the rumor.

Together with Deng Haoshi and Zhou Rui, Lai Wang's accounts were publicized outside the Neiyi Gate. The comparison between the two made the face of the "old man from Rong Mansion" beat to pieces.

Those who used to flaunt themselves in the past have naturally stopped with shameful expressions.

However, it was said that before daybreak that day, four large pots were set up at the entrance of the Cangbing Depot. In them, only some mung bean soup was cooked, but there were more than a dozen iron bars piled on the bottom of the pot.

“Let’s start inspecting the goods!”

Following Laishun's order, carts covered in ice for thousands of miles came forward one after another.

When passing those large pots, two or three strong laborers would wrap the handles of the iron bars with wet towels and forcefully insert the red-hot tips into the solid ice.

Then another boy came forward, looking through and sniffing like a dog.

After a while, I heard the young man yelling in a sultry voice: "Solid, little bits and pieces, no smell - let's unload the truck and weigh it!"

A dozen or so Liba swept the ice cubes with straw and placed them on the large scales that had been prepared.

The weight is counted in its own accounting room, and the procedures for putting it into storage are handled by a steward.

All Laishun needs to do is to patrol back and forth with his hands behind his back, scold someone if he sees someone cheating, and kick him if he doesn't look right.

The people he focused on 'taking care of' were those who had spread rumors and believed them - of course, he stayed away from those who held the iron bars.

Just as he was immersed in the pleasure of being a villain and couldn't extricate himself, he saw his father's servant running over as fast as he could, and said in his ear: "The little boy is in charge, check it out, find it out!"

"Found out?!"

Laishun's spirits were lifted and he quickly asked: "Who is the instigator of this?"

"I didn't say which one it was."

The boy raised his finger and pointed to the northeast and said: "But I am in the second master's outer study. The housekeeper will let you finish the work in hand and go there..."

"What are you busy with?!"

Laishun said a few words casually, then went straight to Jia Zheng's study room.

But on the way, he felt a little strange.

The initiator of this rectification movement was Jia Mu, and the person in charge of the specific affairs was Wang Xifeng. Mrs. Wang also took on the responsibility of supervising from the side.

But how did he catch the culprit? He didn't send it to the old lady or Wang Xifeng, but took it to Jia Zheng's study room?

When we arrived at the place, Laishun's doubts became even stronger.

The people guarding the door inside and outside are all Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng's maids - since they want to use maids to serve as directors, why go to the outer courtyard to do it? Isn't it more convenient in the inner courtyard?

Just like this, he walked into the inner courtyard of the outer study with suspicion, but he heard someone crying in the west side hall: "Madam, madam, please forgive me! We, we just want to retaliate against Na Laishun, and we have no intention to provoke him." The meaning of the relationship between the Duke’s Mansion and the Taiwei Mansion!”

Um?!

Laishun, who was following Jin Chuan inside, was immediately stunned at his feet, wondering to himself why he had his own business?

And the howling sound inside, like a slaughtering pig, seemed a bit familiar.

Just as I was thinking about who this person was, I heard another cry from inside: "It is indeed our couple who is making trouble about the birth of a child in the Wang family, but we... we are worried that Ning Laishun will find out the flaw, so..."

The voice of the following words gradually became lower, but they were not heard clearly.

Laishun rushed past Jin Chuan, took a few steps to the side hall door and looked inside, only to see a man and woman kneeling in the middle.

The woman has never been seen before, but the man is none other than Zhou Rui’s son Zhou Fu!

Just listen to Zhou Fu crying with runny nose and tears: "At that time, I just thought that I would never have thought that this rumor about the birth of a child in the Wang family would be spread by us..."

Gan~

What the hell is this?!
