Huang Beiyue smiled lightly: "What else can be done? It's not like Butler Zhou. As long as the amount is completed, I will naturally not pursue it."
"Complete the number..." Xiao Rou looked slightly embarrassed.
Just in time, Dong Ling came in with hot tea. After hearing their conversation, she said: "Aunt Qin has spent a lot of money in training the eldest young master and the fourth young lady in recent years. Plus the expenses of the master and the government, how can we
Can it be fully replenished?"
Huang Beiyue nodded: "That's right, the eldest brother and the fourth sister are both members of the family, and money should be spent on them. But according to what Butler Zhou said, Aunt Qin may have kept a lot of it secretly."
Xiao Rou bit her lip, and she was secretly happy when she heard that the money should be spent on them. This showed that Huang Beiyue still regarded them as the young ladies in the house.
"My mother does have some secrets, but she is stubborn and may not be willing to hand them over."
Dong Ling said in a low voice: "Fourth girl, you must be aware of the character of our third girl. The loss of the eldest princess's mansion cannot be wasted. The toilet that my aunt used before will be forgotten. It was just kept secretly. No matter what, we can't do it."
Allow it. This matter can be settled in the government. If it gets serious, think about the consequences. You and the eldest young master are both still young and have a bright future."
"Third sister, if my mother hands over those secret possessions, will you really not pursue the case?"
Huang Beiyue raised her eyes lightly: "Fourth sister, don't you believe me?"
"No! Of course I believe it! It's just me..."
The light in Huang Beiyue's eyes flashed slightly and she said: "Fourth sister, you must know where Aunt Qin's things are hidden? If you tell me, I'm afraid Aunt Qin won't let you go, or she will just stay with your daughter.
It is not possible to sever ties."
Xiao Rou's eyes immediately turned red, and tears rolled down her cheeks: "Benevolence and righteousness cannot be balanced. Third sister, can you teach me what to do?"
Huang Beiyue sneered in her heart, why did she need to teach her about this matter? As long as she gave Xiao Rou some escape and benefits, Xiao Rou would definitely betray her mother.
"Fourth sister, the Queen Mother, Xi and Princess will return to the imperial capital in a few days. At that time, I will hand a sign to the palace asking to see the Queen Mother, Xi and Princess, and I will take you into the palace with them."
Xiao Rou wiped her tears and looked at Huang Beiyue blankly. What were they going to the palace with?
Dong Ling said quickly: "Fourth girl, why have you forgotten? When Xi and the princess went out of the palace with the Queen Mother to pray for Nanyi Kingdom, they once said that they would never marry, serve the gods, and gain peace and stability for Nanyi Kingdom. Xihe
The princess intends to choose a woman with both virtue and talent among the children of each house to adopt as her adopted daughter. The legitimate daughter has a high status, so Xi and the princess only want to choose among the concubines."
After hearing this, Xiao Rou stood up for a while and then suddenly stood up and knelt in front of Huang Beiyue: "Third sister, how can I repay you for giving me such an opportunity and such kindness?"
"I'm just giving you this opportunity. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you. You are smart and you will naturally understand that by becoming the adopted daughter of Xi and the princess, Aunt Qin's previous bad reputation will no longer affect you."
Xiao Rou held her hand tightly, her cheeks flushed slightly because of her excitement, and said firmly: "I understand, my mother did something wrong and she should be repaid. Although I am her daughter, I can't just watch her.
Wrong again and again!"
"My slave has long said that the fourth girl is the most sensible person!" Dong Ling smiled and helped her up.
