"By the way, old housekeeper," Shen Weiwan remembered something, "have you seen the accounting evidence that the Seventh Prince sent last time?"
"I've taken a look!" the old housekeeper nodded. "The evidence is irrefutable! The amount of money Liu has embezzled over the years is enough to send her to jail!"
"That's good," Shen Weiwan's eyes sharpened, "When Liu makes a move again, we will submit all this evidence to the government and make it impossible for her to turn over!"
The old housekeeper looked at the cold light in Shen Weiwan's eyes, and his heart was filled with emotion. It seems that the general's mansion is really saved.
"My dear lady," the old housekeeper said solemnly, "if there is anything I need from now on, please just tell me!"
"Old housekeeper, you are too kind," Shen Weiwan said with a smile, "We are now in the same boat, so we must work together."
Just then, there was a noise outside, which seemed to be Liu's voice.
"Let's go out and take a look," Shen Weiwan handed the key to Chuntao for safekeeping, "to see what opera my aunt is performing."
The master and servant followed the old housekeeper to the front yard, where they saw Liu with red and swollen eyes, walking towards them aggressively with a group of maids.
"Chen Weiwan! Come out here!" Liu put her hands on her hips, looking like she was about to accuse someone. "Are you doing something behind my back again?"
Shen Weiwan pretended to be surprised: "Aunt, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
"Who provokes me? Who else but you!" Liu pointed at her, "I'm telling you, don't think you can turn the tables just by being a little clever! I still have the final say in this general's mansion!"
"Oh? Really?" Shen Weiwan raised an eyebrow, "Then I wonder if you have the final say on the pair of jade bracelets that my aunt asked someone to pawn at the pawnshop in the south of the city yesterday?"
Liu's expression changed: "You...how do you know?"
"Not only do I know this," Shen Weiwan smiled slightly, "I also know that you had someone sell two pieces of brocade in the warehouse last month and got a hundred taels of silver, but you put it in the account for purchasing fabrics."
Liu was so angry that she trembled all over: "You...you are slandering me!"
"Whether it's slander or not, just ask the old housekeeper and you'll know." Shen Weiwan looked at the old housekeeper.
The old housekeeper stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Madam Liu, I have all the evidence of you enriching yourself over the years recorded here!"
Liu looked at the old housekeeper's serious expression, and then at Shen Weiwan's confident look. Her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized that she really couldn't beat this little girl.
"You...you guys teamed up to plot against me!" Liu screamed.
"Calculation?" Shen Weiwan sneered, "Aunt, this is called conclusive evidence. You should think about how to explain it to the authorities."
"The government?" Liu was shocked. "You want to report it to the authorities?"
"If my aunt doesn't stop, don't blame me for being rude." Shen Weiwan's eyes were cold.
Liu looked at her niece, who looked like a completely different person, and then at the old housekeeper standing behind her. She suddenly felt powerless. She knew that her good days in the general's mansion were over.
"You...you wait!" Liu said harshly and left in disgrace with the maids.
Looking at Liu's embarrassed back, Chuntao couldn't help but cheer: "Miss, you are so amazing! You scared that old hag Liu so much that she dared not speak!"
The old housekeeper also smiled and nodded: "Miss, it seems that this old servant really did not make a mistake in choosing you. You will definitely be able to defend the General's Mansion!"
Shen Weiwan looked at the General's Mansion in the sunset, her heart filled with emotion. In her previous life, she never thought she would be able to have today. But now, she not only kept the key, but also won the support of the old housekeeper.
"Old housekeeper," Shen Weiwan turned her head and smiled brightly, "our good show has just begun!"
The old butler looked at her confident expression and nodded with satisfaction. He knew that the future of the General's Mansion had hope.
At this moment, Liu was hiding in her own yard, and she was so angry that she smashed her dressing box. She knew that Shen Weiwan was serious. But she was unwilling to give up. She had worked hard for so many years, how could she give up like this?
"Mom, what should we do?" Shen Ruorou cried beside her, "Shen Weiwan is getting more and more powerful now, we can't beat her at all!"
Liu gritted her teeth and said, "Can't win? I don't believe it! Doesn't she have the old housekeeper's support? I don't believe she can always be so smooth sailing!"
A fierce look flashed in her eyes: "Ruorou, go do something..."
Shen Ruorou leaned closer and listened to her mother's instructions with a horrified expression on her face: "Mom, this...is this okay?"
"You have to do it, whether it works or not!" Liu said fiercely, "otherwise, my mother and I will be left with nothing in the future!"
Shen Ruorou looked at her mother's ferocious face and could only nod: "Okay...Okay, mother, I'll do it right away."
A new conspiracy is quietly brewing. Shen Weiwan and the old housekeeper are also ready to face the challenge. The turmoil in the general's mansion is far from over.
