As soon as the man saw Chen Ma's expression, he knew that he had made the right bet and shouted even louder:
"Master, what I said is true. If you don't believe it, you can just ask this old woman to invite their master out..."
The first yamen officer rolled his eyes: "No need, it's just the case reported to me by the mistress herself, saying that someone led someone to break into her yard and steal things."
While talking, the yamen servant also shook the dressing box he just took from the man's hand.
"This is the evidence. You are guilty of all the dirty work. You were caught by me and my brothers, and you still dare to make excuses!"
"Impossible! Where is their master?"
"Over there." The officer pointed to the back.
The man followed the yamen servant's finger and saw a young and beautiful woman standing at the gate of the courtyard. She was none other than "Mrs. Yao" whom he had met before.
Gu Qingling gave a perfect smile: Sorry, I'm here!
When she heard someone entering her yard looking for a cat, she said nothing and, as "Old Mrs. Ye", personally stopped the government servant patrolling down the mountain and said someone was "robbery".
The man's pupils shrank instantly: It's over!
If it were another "Old Madam", he might have seen it wrong, but this "Old Madam Yao" certainly wouldn't. Because when he heard her calling herself "Old Madam", he still couldn't believe it: she was so young.
Beautiful, she is actually an "old lady"?!
Later, I found out that they had opened a rouge shop, and then I realized that it was no wonder they did such good maintenance. This is what they do.
With a sudden thought, he reported the matter to his master, that is, Mr. Zhou.
This is how Mr. Zhou later wanted to buy someone else's "unique secret recipe".
At this moment, he only felt very regretful. If he had known this, he would not have encouraged his master to take advantage of others.
"I'm sorry for bothering you guys," Gu Qingling winked at Chen's mother, "I'll help you with the investigation then. You dare to come and grab things in broad daylight. This is too courageous. I'm all a grandma.
How can a person of such a young age be able to withstand such a fright..."
When she said this, a group of government servants secretly glanced at her several times, and their expressions became distorted.
There is nothing I can do about it, others call me "Laoshen", either an old man or an old lady. When she was good, she looked like she was only in her thirties. She was in her prime, but she ended up being called "Laoshen" one by one.
Shouting, isn’t this weird?
Whose old lady looks so young and beautiful?
It would be fine if it was an old lady from another house, but in Lord Yao's house, even if they have never seen her, they have heard about it, but this is the legacy of old Earl Yao of Yao House, the first wife of the famous matchmaker.
lady.
Now, the Viscount who is in charge of the Yao family is her eldest son.
And the eldest son has a daughter who is twelve years old and has reached the age to discuss marriage.
Just think about it. This granddaughter is about to get married. How young can this grandmother be? But the person in front of them is beyond their imagination. She looks "young" enough. If she hadn't stood up for herself.
, no one else will believe that she is an "old lady".
Chen's mother finally reacted. She was surprised and happy, and quickly took out the broken silver she carried with her to "reward" Mr. Cha.
The yamen servant who received the silver reward was also happy. Not only did he "pick up" the merit, but he also received the silver reward. The trip was not in vain.
She happily promised Gu Qingling that they would definitely "examine" it carefully and give Yao Taijun an explanation when the time comes.
What, Mrs. Yao? Mr. Zhou’s cronies were almost dumbfounded. Isn’t it Mrs. Yao? How did she become Mrs. Yao? Mrs. Yao, isn’t that a “title” that can only be used by officials and wealthy families?
!
It’s over!
It’s over!
This time it’s really over!
Once he got involved with these powerful people, how could the officials let him and his master go? His master was just an ordinary businessman. If this fell into their hands, why not get it done quickly? "Beautiful
"It's a good way to show your face in front of others, and remember them next time something good happens.
If he had known that she was an "old lady", he would not have had any idea of her.
But how did he know that there would be a restless old lady in the family of a powerful person. Instead of staying in the backyard to take care of her old age, she would run out to "show herself" and run her own rouge shop?
Regret endlessly.
The next thing is not what Gu Qingling needs to worry about. Although the Yao family is nothing in the capital, the title "Viscount" is still quite useful in a small place like Yunyang City.
Even if Mr. Zhou is not caught on the spot, as long as you say hello to the government, someone will take care of it.
Gu Qingling didn't believe it anymore. His cronies had been caught. How could he, the master, escape?
After sending the government officials away, Gu Qingling had the courtyard door closed.
There were still messes in the yard that had just been turned over, but none of the servants dared to move. They all knelt there in silence.
Gu Qingling didn't say anything, just sat on the chair and drank his tea calmly.
Mother Chen knew that the old lady was really angry this time, and she was very angry. She just "went out" for a while, but the yard became such a mess, and people had an opportunity to succeed.
When I came in, I felt very impressive.
If the old lady hadn't come back quickly, this place would have been "moved" empty.
Thinking of the terrible consequences, Mother Chen became a little scared and kowtowed to admit her mistake:
"Old lady, it's all your fault. Please punish me. It's because I didn't take care of the yard. As soon as I didn't see you, I thought something had happened to you and panicked. I just wanted to find someone quickly, but I didn't.
I noticed that someone was taking advantage of the loophole..."
"Mother Chen, you are at fault. Although I didn't say hello to you when I left, what do I usually say? I said I brought you up just to ask you to take care of my yard, regardless of me.
Regardless of whether people are present or not, the yard must look like it is, and nothing can be messed up..." Gu Qingling gave Chen Ma a hard scolding with a cold face.
She had no idea that her backyard would be turned into a mess just because she came back a little "late" the next day.
If something really happened in the future, she shouldn't expect anyone to "rescue" her. She could just lie down and let others deal with it.
Which family's backyard is so "useless" that when the master is gone, it immediately becomes a mess and collapses at the first attack?
Of course, Gu Qingling also knows that she may have some problems here. She can reflect on herself, but she still needs to be trained, and she still needs to show her attitude. Otherwise, they will not remember it and think that she will get through this easily.
, and relaxed their "vigilance".
Mother Chen lowered her head, not daring to refute, and recognized them one by one.
In fact, she was a little aggrieved. She didn't care about this originally. It was just a few days ago that the nanny beside the old lady made a mistake and was "driven" aside by the old lady, so she was picked up.
She had just started to get used to it, when the old lady dismissed a large number of maids and slaves, and replaced them with a new wave of people.
The new people and the old people are mixed together, and they need a transition period, but today's events happened, and it became a pot of "porridge".
"Where are the rules I usually set?" After training Chen Ma, Gu Qingling pointed the anchor at the others,
"Have you all heard that the dog is in the belly? No matter what happens, as long as the sky is not falling, you can do whatever you are supposed to do, each in his own place, and there can be no chaos at all. What are the rules of a wealthy family?
The rules are your words, deeds, and actions. If you can't even do this, stand up for yourself and go back to where you came from. I don't want to waste this effort!"
