Youshi knew that her husband had embezzled things from the Chen family, but she had no idea how much he had embezzled.
She just knew that after following Butler Qin, she would have no worries about food and clothing.
After all, when he proposed to marry her, her You family's lintel was higher than that of Butler Qin.
Although Butler Qin has the Qin family behind him, he has a weak blood relationship with the authentic Qin family and is already a marginalized person. Naturally, he does not have a good family background.
However, with his ability to settle accounts as a housekeeper, he gained the attention of the old lady and let him become a housekeeper in the Chen Mansion.
After that, You's life was the same as it was in her parents' home.
She is proud of herself in her natal family, and naturally her husband is also proud of her.
Therefore, over the years, You Shijue's husband had been very kind to her, so he acquiesced in the fact that he was greedy for money from the Chen family.
If the man hadn't appeared last night, she would have doubted nothing and immediately agreed to her husband's idea, divorced him and then took her children to live in the countryside for a while.
"How?" After speaking, Butler Qin asked.
"What?" Youshi regained consciousness slightly.
Just now she was only looking at her husband's mouth opening and closing, but there was no sound in her ears.
The needle used to hold the soles of her son's shoes pierced her hand, and she didn't even notice.
Butler Qin was very dissatisfied with You's disengaged expression when he was talking about important issues.
He admitted that Youshi was fierce and capable, and could manage the family. He was right to marry her when he insisted on marrying her.
But today is different from the past.
Youshi was not good-looking at first, and even became a bit ugly as she got older. Between the fair and tender Bai He and the ugly first wife, every man knew how to choose.
Therefore, when Bai He reluctantly asked him for the status of the main wife, his heart was moved.
It is true that Bai He is not the only girl he has a crush on, but this is the only one who seduces him.
When he thought of not having the right to be his wife, Bai He would never pay attention to him again, and his heart felt like the pain of a seventeen-year-old boy who was unable to love him.
So, he made up this lie to get his wife to divorce him.
In fact, he had a lot of money and could use it to get rid of his first wife, but he was a money-loving and stingy person, so he wanted to see if he could get his first wife out without spending a single soldier.
If not, it would be too late for him to start giving money and gifts.
"Let's make peace with each other. It's my sole responsibility to be greedy. You, mother and son, have nothing to do with me, so you won't be affected."
"What if I say I'm not afraid and can face it with you?" Youshi asked tentatively.
"This won't work!" Butler Qin refused without thinking.
However, he quickly realized that saying this would be too heartless and would arouse suspicion.
He hurriedly explained, "What I mean is that if you come to plead guilty with me, it will only make our children suffer. How about I take the blame alone, and then you can lead a good life with your children..."
"Don't worry, it's just a fake reconciliation. You gave me three children and I'm not willing to abandon you!"
After an affectionate confession, Butler Qin looked at Youshi, "What... do you think?"
"What should I think?" Youshi stood up, not wanting to face this ruthless man again.
"Where are you going and why are you answering me?" Butler Qin saw his wife was about to leave and hurriedly grabbed her.
Youshi shook off his arm, "I didn't sleep well last night. I'm going to be very sleepy now. Let's wait until I wake up."
"This matter is so urgent, how can I wait for you to wake up?"
"Whether you wait or not," Youshi looked at her increasingly irritable husband, "living away is not a trivial matter, you have to let me think about it!"
"Okay, okay," Butler Qin said, "Think quickly, I'm going back home at night, and I'm afraid something might change if I'm too late."
Today, the princess specially gave him a day off.
Last night, he went to Bai He's room to get a bad result. He happened to meet someone from the princess's side who said that the princess had an account that he couldn't understand and asked him to recheck it with the accountant overnight.
Originally, Steward Qin was unwilling, but someone came and said that the princess allowed him to take a day off tomorrow, so Steward Qin worked with the accountant overnight.
I just used this day to go home and solve the problem of my first wife.
He couldn't lose Bai He, so he simply gave her the title of his wife and let her stay by his side.
Since the princess took control of the middle feeder, he rarely went to the old lady's house.
He was a little slow about what happened in the old lady's room, so he knew what happened to Bai He so late.
He cannot be looked after by both the outer courtyard and the outer courtyard. It will be different when he officially marries Bai He.
It just so happens that in the future, one of them will be in charge of the outer courtyard and the other will be in charge of the inner courtyard. From now on, there will be no need for Ma Zhao and Ma Wen.
Since the old lady took charge of the Chen family, she has frequently made wrong choices. Facts have proved that neither Mother Zhao nor Mother Wen are the right materials to help.
Even in the end, the old lady sold the village, and the shop didn't make a splash.
Thinking of the old lady, he thought of the princess.
There are some things that just won’t work if you don’t accept them.
After the shop was returned to the princess, it was like a dead tree coming to life.
He had to be impressed by the princess's methods. This talent for doing business should be innate.
Unlike the old lady, the Chen family's property was run into a mess by her. It was obviously the old lady who gradually led the Chen family downhill, but the old lady had no self-awareness.
As the steward, he couldn't say much.
It's just that now there is a princess to take charge of the Chen family, which is really great.
The princess has a business acumen and is generous in her dealings.
The important thing is that the shop started to make money, and it became easier for him to do tricks.
When he returned home this time, in addition to asking for a divorce from his wife, the most important thing was to hide what he had gained this time.
The gold and silver he was greedy for was scattered throughout the house.
Even if someone knew that he had buried and hid the gold and silver, no one would know how much money he had hidden unless they knocked down his house and dug up three feet of the ground in his courtyard.
While his wife got up and went back to think about Heli, Butler Qin simply took out his luggage and went to the backyard alone.
There was a pickaxe in the backyard. The servants all knew that he liked to plant flowers, cultivate and plow the ground, so the pickaxe and hoe were always placed nearby.
Steward Qin picked up a pickaxe, went to a small flower that had just been planted, and dug hard. After carefully digging up the flower, he opened a small box exposed underneath.
He took out a package of golden beans from the bag, counted them in his palm, and then slowly put them into the small box.
Close the box again, then fill it with soil again, plant flowers, and finally water it. There will be no traces of digging here.
Even if there is, others will think that he is digging dirt here.
Steward Qin thought that no one was aware of it, so he patted the dirt in his hands and felt proud, but he didn't expect that all this could be clearly seen by Youshi who was hiding behind the pillar.
