Chapter 360 You are definitely not that kind of shameless person!



Chapter 360 You are definitely not that kind of shameless person!

Ah Wu went back and found the land deeds that Old Lady Liu had given her as a dowry.

Check the shop under the name of the second wife according to the title deed.

You wouldn't know until you checked. A look at the account books submitted by the manager showed that the second room's several shops located in popular streets had been making losses year after year!

The manager was still wiping away tears: "In the past, our eldest master was heartbroken about the loss of Third Aunt's parents, and the shop under his name suffered losses year after year. Our eldest master paid a lot of money out of his own pocket, but in the end it really couldn't fill the hole..."

Ah Wu frowned as he listened, flipping through the account book.

She only had a superficial understanding and couldn't see any problems when looking at these account books.

But this doesn't stop her from feeling something is wrong!

Ah Wu remembered that the shops left by her parents were making a lot of money, so how come they suddenly started to suffer losses?

And judging from the figures on the books, the company has indeed been making losses year after year!

Ah Wu frowned and said, "Give me all the business accounts under my grandfather's name as well."

The manager quickly brought out a few more account books: "... Third Aunt, please take a look. I'm not lying, it's clearly written in the account book. The market has not been good in recent years, and without our eldest master paying out of his own pocket to fill the hole, the shop has really been losing money year after year."

The more Ah Wu flipped through the pages, the more confused he became.

Unfortunately, the nanny Xia, who was in charge of her courtyard, had been suffering from a hidden injury in her youth, and her legs and feet had become worse in the past two years. She had to take good care of them. Nanny Xia followed her son and daughter-in-law to guard the Liu family's villa, and did not come to the capital with Ah Wu.

Xing Xing came over and said, "Auntie, can you let me see the account book?"

Xingxing learned how to read accounts from Boger for a period of time. Boger helped her manage her private property, but Boger insisted that Xingxing be able to spot the unreasonable parts in any account book at a glance.

Bo Ge'er has a talent for business. Even if Xing Xing has only learned the basics from him, she should be able to look at the account books without any problem.

Ah Wu was about to hand the account book to Xing Xing, but the manager jumped out and said, "Third Aunt, how can you show something as important as the account book to others?"

Ah Wu was too lazy to argue with the manager, so he shouted to Yu Siyang, "Siyang, throw him out! He's so annoying!"

Yu Siyang stood up and pushed the manager.

Although the manager was a strong man, he was like a little chick in front of the tall and strong Yu Siyang and was ruthlessly pushed out.

The manager was locked outside with a look of humiliation on his face. He was about to knock on the door, but then he thought, they had someone specially hired to tamper with the account books, and even years of study might not be able to tell. Not to mention that the third aunt was a fool, the other one was just a little girl in her teens, what could she see?

Thinking of this, the steward pretended to shout a few times and then left the yard to take care of other things. When he left, there was no longer any worry on his face.

However, what the manager did not expect was that half an hour later, the door opened and Xingxing came out with several forged account books that she had marked.

Ah Wu was so angry about what his uncle did that he didn't know what to say.

"It's easy to expose him," Xing Xing said, "My second brother said that we should keep a yin and yang account book. The yang account book is used to pay people, but there must be a real yin account book hidden in the dark."

"so……"

Xing Xing smiled and said, "We'll keep this fake account book as well, and then take people to the store to search for the real account book."

Ah Wu deeply agrees with this!

Hu Ya brought a few more people over and accompanied Xing Xing and A Wu to the shop under the name of the second wife.

Ah Wu has the title deed in his hand, and Hu Ya is familiar with the private affairs of running a shop. There are only a few places where the account books are hidden, and she is familiar with them!

Ah Wu and Xing Xing went out for a while, put the several real account books they had collected together with the fake account books, tied up the shop managers of each shop, and took them to the authorities with great fanfare, saying that they were going to take them to the authorities and accuse them of embezzling the property of their master.

It is a serious crime for a servant to embezzle his master's property, and the sentence will depend on the amount embezzled.

For example, if someone embezzled more than ten taels of silver, in addition to paying the full amount, he would also be sentenced to ten strokes of the cane and six months of hard labor.

If anyone embezzles more than thirty taels, he shall be punished with fifty strokes of the cane and be exiled.

Based on the amount fed back from this Yin-Yang ledger, the difference in each ledger is more than three hundred taels.

It's enough to kill the shop owners of these shops several times.

The people Hu Ya brought over were all members of the Yu family caravan. She was escorting people and banging the gongs to shout to the onlookers, "These are all the shopkeepers in the Liu Mansion! They took advantage of the fact that there was only one orphan girl left in the second branch of the Liu Mansion, and they fabricated lies to embezzle the orphan girl's property! We are going to send them to the authorities now! Charge them with the crime of embezzling the master's property!"

When the shopkeepers heard this, they were so frightened that they pissed their pants and knelt down before Ah Wu in front of so many people on the street who were watching the excitement. They burst into tears and confessed everything that the eldest wife of the Liu family had ordered them to do!

Ah Wu and Xing Xing looked at each other.

Ah Wu followed the method she had discussed with Xing Xing before, and tried to look incredulous, saying loudly, "Impossible! Don't try to escape the blame by putting the blame on my uncle! My uncle is not that kind of person!"

The shopkeepers shouted even louder than Ah Wu: "Miss San, don't be fooled! The master ordered us to falsify the accounts! Otherwise, how could we have the courage to do it?"

"Yes, Third Miss! The eldest master used to come to the shop to take money once every six months, and later he sent people to the shop to collect money every month, and we dared not refuse. Later, the surplus in the shop was gradually sent to the eldest master, and the eldest master even asked us to make a fake account book to balance the accounts--"

"Impossible!" Xing Xing shouted, "The eldest master of the Liu family is a doctor of the Ministry of Rites! How could he be so shameless as to seize the second wife's property and bully his orphan niece! I don't believe it! How could a doctor of the Ministry of Rites be such a person?!"

Xing Xing kept saying she didn't believe it, but in fact it made more people know what dirty things Liu Qingyuan had done!

Many people who were watching the excitement started to talk about it.

When Liu Qingyuan got the news and rushed over, he heard Xingxing's crisp voice in the crowd and almost fell out of the sedan chair!

He was literally gritting his teeth: "Quick, beat that stinky girl away!"

The servants brought by Liu Qingyuan came forward. Xing Xing knew they were from the Liu family when she saw the clothes they wore. She guessed that Liu Qingyuan must be nearby, and immediately shouted, "Master Liu, I know you are innocent! You are definitely not the kind of shameless person who wants to embezzle your niece's property! Master Liu, please come out quickly, let's go to the government office together and put these shopkeepers who slandered you in jail in front of the prefect!"

The girl's voice was sweet and sticky, but Liu Qingyuan, who was hiding in a sedan on the side of the road and listening to these words, felt like he was hearing the voice of the devil!
