Chapter 78 Let’s go! Let’s go get the money!



This sudden voice scared Han to death, and Feng Fendai was also frightened to the point of turning pale. [Yankuaikanshu's new domain name.., first letter, previously registered accounts can still be used]

The two turned their heads and saw Qingyu, Tongshengxuan's first-class maid, standing at the door.

"It seems that I have come at a wrong time. Aunt Han and the Fourth Miss can chat first. I will wait in the yard for a while." Qingyu said with a cold face as if she was about to retreat.

"Wait!" Han hurriedly stopped the person, "It's Miss Qingyu! Oh, look at what you are saying. You must have something to do here. There is no reason for me to ask you to wait." After a pause, she continued, "The fourth young lady injured her arm, so she is a little impatient. Miss Qingyu, don't take anything you hear to heart!"

Qingyu forced a smile, "The Second Miss asked me to invite Aunt Han to Tongshengxuan, and also invited Aunt An."

"Oh!" Han was stunned. "Second Miss, what's the matter?"

Qingyu glanced at Feng Fendai and said, "Second Miss has promised in front of the old lady and the master that once the accounts of the three shops of Aunt Yao are checked, any surplus will be divided equally among the old lady, the master, and the third and fourth misses. Now that the accounts have been checked, Miss, please invite the two ladies over to have a talk."

When she heard that they were going to share the money, Feng Fendai got excited and urged Han: "Go quickly, go quickly."

Han turned around and glared at her, then said to Qingyu: "Miss, go ahead, I will be there soon."

Qingyu nodded and said, "Then I'll go ahead." After saying that, she turned and left.

Han saw Qingyu walking away, and then she walked a few steps back to Feng Fendai, stamping her feet in anger, "You are so outspoken! Qingyu is Feng Yuheng's top maid, but she has been acting so arrogant after only being here for a few days. If she tells Feng Yuheng what I said just now, you will be in trouble."

"Hmph." Fendai knew that it would be bad if her words were heard, so she snorted and stopped talking. But after thinking about it again, she couldn't help but tell Han: "If Feng Yuheng divides the money later, you must remember to ask for more. Aunt An has her own shop, so she won't have to worry about the dowry in the future. I have nothing!" As she said this, she glared at Han, "You don't have any real ability at all."

Han felt extremely aggrieved when her daughter scolded her, but she also knew that it was indeed her own fault that she was incompetent and could not save up a dowry for her daughter.

"The Feng family is always bullying at home." Fendai held up her aching arm and said muffledly, "Once they meet a powerful person, they lose their temper."

Han was angry because she couldn't get over this: "That's the prince! How can the Feng family be so angry?"

When it comes to the Ninth Prince, Fendai gets excited again - "Why is the marriage hers? They are both concubines' daughters, why was she arranged such a marriage? I remember that the marriage was arranged for the legitimate daughter."

"So what?" Han was in a hurry to leave, but she couldn't help but persuade Fendai: "Even if you don't marry Feng Yuheng, it won't be your turn. If they want a legitimate daughter, they want Feng Chenyu!"

"Don't the legitimate daughters of the family take turns to sit?" Fen Dai said to herself unconvincedly, "Since it's a rotation, sooner or later it will be my turn! I'm not afraid of waiting." Then she looked at Han and said angrily, "In the past you only knew how to please Shen, but what did you get in the end? Not even as good as what slipped through Feng Yuheng's fingers! Okay, go quickly, remember to ask for more silver, that's the serious thing."

Han was driven out by Fendai. Fendai's twisted personality has made her a little pessimistic. Arrogant and domineering, just like Shen. Even though Shen had a good family, she still ended up like this. What about Fendai? As a concubine's daughter, is it possible for the Feng family to support her?

Han walked towards Tongshengxuan with a complicated and uneasy mood, and at the same time she was worried whether Feng Yuheng would hold her accountable for her cooperation with Chenyu that night.

When they finally reached Tongsheng Pavilion, the maid guarding the small door between Feng Mansion and Tongsheng Pavilion bowed slightly to her and led her inside.

This was the first time Han came here, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly: It's so grand.

Although I know this is a mansion, seeing it with my own eyes is a completely different feeling. No wonder Fendai is unwilling to accept it. They are both concubines, but with such a big difference, who can accept it?

When she arrived at Feng Yuheng's yard, An had already arrived and was chatting with Feng Yuheng. They were laughing and talking, and it looked lively and warm.

Han wanted to join in, but as soon as she opened her mouth, before she could even smile her signature smile, Feng Yuheng's originally enthusiastic attitude suddenly turned cold, and she said to her, "Aunt Han is here!"

Han opened her mouth and closed it again. She nodded awkwardly and saluted: "Hello, Second Miss."

"Yes." Feng Yuheng didn't even say "You're welcome" and accepted her gift as a matter of course, then continued: "The main reason I asked the two aunts to come here today is that I have checked the accounts here. The eldest lady has swallowed up a total of 200,000 taels of silver over the years. At the beginning, I said that this money was to honor my grandmother and father, and some would be allocated for my two sisters to add to their dowries. Since everyone has a share, please ask the two aunts to come with me to see my grandmother and ask her to take back what belongs to us."

When Han heard her get straight to the point, she nodded quickly: "Okay! Okay!"

Feng Yuheng reminded the two again: "Now that the eldest lady has been left in the temple, this account may become a mess. I hope the two concubines can think of a solution."

She said they were the two concubines, but her eyes were always on Han, which made Han feel uneasy.

"Of course, of course." He quickly walked to An's side, "Sister An, let's help the Second Miss get the money back."

Feng Yuheng corrected her again, "It's to help you get the money back." Then, without waiting for Han to reply, she walked forward, "Let's go, if it's any later, grandma will have dinner."

So, the three of them walked towards Shuya Garden.

When they arrived, the old lady was leaning back in a chair with her eyes closed, and a little maid was massaging her legs.

Seeing the three people coming together, the little maid hesitated for a moment. The old lady felt that the hand that was kneading her legs stopped for a while, and she couldn't help but frowned: "Be more careful." She moved her foot and kicked the little girl to the ground.

Feng Yuheng snorted in his heart, took two quick steps and said, "Grandma, is your leg uncomfortable?"

When the old lady heard Feng Yuheng's voice, she quickly opened her eyes, waved her hand to send the little girl away, then smiled and asked her, "Why are you here, Ah Heng?" Then she looked behind her and saw An and Han following her, "Why are you here together?"

An and Han came forward to greet the old lady, and Feng Yuheng also came forward and stretched out his hand to pinch the old lady's legs twice, "Well, there is nothing serious. If grandma feels uncomfortable, Ah Heng will go and get some medicine and send it over later."

"Hey! Good, good." The old lady loved to hear Feng Yuheng say that he was sending her medicine. In her opinion, the medicines in Feng Yuheng's hands were all miraculous medicines given by miraculous people. Not only were they effective, but they were also convenient to use. "My dear granddaughter, sit down quickly. You all don't all stand, sit down." Her attitude when talking to An and Han was obviously much colder, and she kept wondering what the purpose of these three people coming together was.

Feng Yuheng didn't need her to guess, and took the initiative to explain her purpose: "My granddaughter came here with Aunt An and Aunt Han to ask Grandmother to make the decision for us."

"Make the decision?" The old lady was stunned. "Make the decision for what?"

An took the initiative to take over the conversation: "Old lady, it's like this, the second young lady has already checked the accounts of the three shops. Over the years, the first lady has embezzled a total of 200,000 taels of silver from those shops."

Han also followed suit: "Yes! Old lady, two hundred thousand taels! This is not a small amount. I was almost scared to death when I heard it! The eldest lady is really brave."

Feng Yuheng followed suit and said, "I wonder if mother handed the money over to the treasury?" He looked around at the furnishings in the old lady's room and shook his head again, "It doesn't seem like it. If there were an extra two hundred thousand taels in the treasury, why would grandma's room still be so shabby?"

She said this on purpose. In fact, the old lady's house was not shabby. In order to curry favor with her, Shen and Chenyu had sent many gifts here over the years. But no matter how much they sent, it could never compare to Shen's Jinyuyuan.

So Han spoke again, "Of course! Old lady, you haven't been to Jinyuyuan for long and didn't pay attention. Her Jinyuyuan is really a mountain of gold! It's really full of gold and jade!"

The old lady was dumbfounded when she heard An Shi say the number of two hundred thousand taels. She thought Shen Shi would be greedy, but she didn't expect that evil woman to be so greedy. In addition, Feng Yuheng and Han Shi compared her house with Shen Shi's Jinyuyuan, which made her more angry.

"Evil woman!" The old lady gnashed her teeth in anger. "What did she pay to the government? Every year she complains that the government has no money. I remember last time Fan Dai said that she would only use ordinary materials to make a skirt. If she really paid 200,000 yuan, how could she not even have money to make a Shu brocade skirt?"

"That's right." Han felt wronged when she mentioned this. "Old lady, you have to make the decision for the younger generation! Over the years, the eldest lady has bullied these young ladies and young masters. Last time, the second young master gave her a bowl of medicine..."

"That's enough." The old lady got angry when she thought of the bowl of medicine. She got even angrier when she thought of Jin Zhen, whom she accepted because of the bowl of medicine. "That person from Ruyiyuan was also hers in the past. Who knows if he will cause any trouble."

Feng Yuheng smiled and advised the old lady, "Let's talk about the future later. At least for now, Aunt Jin Zhen is relatively safe. Besides, she was beaten and punished for doing things in my mother's courtyard before, so she probably won't agree with my mother."

"Hmph." The old lady snorted, "She wouldn't dare to do that." She looked at Feng Yuheng again and asked, "What about this matter, Ah Heng, do you have any plans?"

Feng Yuheng nodded, "Ah Heng has already told the elders in the mansion about his plan. Ah Heng doesn't want the money. He will give it all to grandma and father, and at the same time give a portion to the third and fourth sisters for dowry. But now..."

An Shi continued: "Now that the eldest lady is staying in the temple, who should we ask for the money?"

Han looked aggrieved and said, "Are we just going to let it go like this? Old lady, that's two hundred thousand! There's also a portion for you to honor your parents."

The old lady thought about it, turned around and called Zhao Mama: "Go and call Chenyu over." . .
