Chapter 2471 Return to Tianyun (39)
Seeing that it was Cao's confidant maid who went, Su Xin didn't stop her. She has her own ideas. She must let Cao spit out everything she eats in her mouth!
Soon, Zhong Dasheng came. Before Zhong Dasheng came, he was mentioned by Cao's confidant maid and asked Zhong Dasheng to carry this matter alone, and Cao's would definitely reward him afterwards.
So, when Zhong Dasheng came, he knelt down in front of Mrs Cao, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Madam, the slave is the one who sees money and is greedy for the eldest young master's rent. It's all to blame for the slave, but since the slave has been here since he was a child For the sake of doing this wrong thing when the manor was on duty, let the slaves go!"
Before Mrs. Cao could speak, Su Xin shouted: "You helped my husband to collect rent for six years. My husband has a total of five shops, and each of your shops steals 10 taels of silver per month, that is, you steal a total of 50 per month. Two silver coins, twelve months a year, 600 taels in that year, 3,600 taels in total in those six years, so much silver, if you don't give me all of it back, I'll give it to you See the court!"
He didn't steal it at all, he handed it all over to the Cao family. It was the Cao family who stole it, so how could he have any money to pay it back?
Also, if he stole so much money, if this is to be dealt with by the officials, will he still have a way to survive? Mr. Cao couldn't protect him at all!
Zhong Dasheng was too scared, so he wanted to confess to Mrs. Cao, but saw that Mrs. Cao's confidant was hiding behind the screen and secretly winked at her, and made it clear that he would continue to resist, but Mrs. Cao came out with the money.
Zhong Dasheng didn't believe it, so he went to see Mrs. Cao, Mrs. Cao nodded while everyone was not paying attention, Zhong Dasheng then believed, and hurriedly kowtowed to Su Xin: "Eldest young lady, if you give me one day, I will do it all. Keep the silver in the bank, and when I take it out, I will give it back to the eldest young lady!"
Cao's family wanted to fill this huge hole with 3,600 taels, and she hated Su Xin even more, but at this time, she could only pretend to be a peacemaker and say, "Xin Er, Zhong Dasheng's parents used to be The two old men did their best for the Tao Mansion, and there has never been any mistake. Since Zhong Dasheng said that he would take out the money and give it back to Ye’er, you said it just now, so let’s forget it.”
Su Xin refused to back down: "How can it be counted? Such a large sum of money! Wait until he returns all the money! Who knows if he will take the opportunity to run away!"
"His wife and children are here, why don't we detain his wife and children? We won't wait until tomorrow, let him go to the bank to get money today." After talking to Su Xin, Mrs Cao turned again. The head instructed the confidant, Manjuan, who was standing in the distance: "Manjuan, take someone to the Qianzhuang with Zhong Dasheng, and make sure that Zhong Dasheng take out the three thousand six hundred taels!"
Be sure to…
Manjuan immediately understood, and after taking Zhong Dasheng out of Cao's house, she sent another maid to Cao's room to bring 3,600 taels of silver notes and wait for her to give it to Zhong Dasheng, so that Zhong Dasheng could ask him to ask This trouble will not affect the Cao family.
Su Xin didn't plan to expose Cao's ugly face, even if she heard the true meaning of Cao's words, she didn't say anything.
But Cao saw that Manjuan took Zhong Dasheng away, so he said to Su Xin with an apologetic expression: "This is my subordinate, and he actually deceived me like this, and I will not wait for him to return the Yin Ye'er's money. I will use him again, and I will expel him from the palace."
Su Xin smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't drive him out of the house. I just want to seek justice for my husband, and I also want my mother to recognize the people under her command, so as not to be deceived again without knowing it."
