In his previous life, he was disfigured and his eyes were gouged out, and he was reborn to kill ever

Lu Manqing showed no weakness at all,

"Why do I turn my back on you?"

"Since I entered the Duke's mansion, I have obeyed your words."

"You want me to go east, but I dare not go west."

"The little money I got from you is my hard-earned money."

"You also call me a white-eyed wolf. I really don't know what to say."

"You...you...are so angry..."

Lu Rushuang was so angry that she grabbed the tea cup on the table and smashed it.

Lu Manqing dodged away, grabbed a tea cup and threw it back.

After all, Lu Rushuang was old and couldn't dodge.

The tea cup hit her forehead directly.

Suddenly, blood flowed from her forehead.

Lu Manqing was also shocked.

"I...I...didn't mean to think you could avoid it."

Lu Rushuang took out a handkerchief and covered her forehead.

Lu Manqing wanted to go forward and check her wounds.

"Get away from me!"

Lu Rushuang slapped Lu Manqing's face with her hand and said angrily.

The movement in the room startled the servants outside.

But they didn't dare to trespass.

They were not allowed to enter under the old lady's order. If they dared to disobey, they would be severely punished.

However, Fang Shuming, Fang Jinhang and Fang Ling, who had been standing outside for a while, opened the door directly and entered the house.

The moment the door was pushed open, Lu Rushuang and Lu Manqing were both stunned at the same time.

And his face turned completely white.

When did they come?

Wasn't the conversation between the two of them just heard?

Lu Rushuang was the first to react.

She covered her forehead with a handkerchief and forced a smile.

"Why are you all here? I just had some quarrel with Aunt Liu. It was all a misunderstanding and nothing serious."

Aunt Liu lowered her head and dared not speak.

Fang Shuming had a sullen face and asked his servants to come in and clean up the fragments of tea cups lying on the ground.

He also called the doctor to bandage Lu Rushuang's wound.

Lu Rushuang was also helped into the bedroom and lay on the bed.

Although there was blood on her forehead, she was not seriously injured.

But in order to avoid it, she kept moaning that she had a headache.

"Ouch, it hurts so much... Ouch..."

While humming, he winked at Lu Manqing.

Lu Manqing understood and quickly wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

"Old madam, it's all my fault, please punish me."

After saying that, he knelt on the ground and cried sadly.

"Get up. As an elder, I can't argue with a junior like you."

Lu Rushuang looked kind and generous.

"Thank you, old lady, for your magnanimity."

Lu Manqing stood up.

"Old madam, you are injured, so we won't disturb you."

With that said, he turned around and gave Fang Shuming a gift.

"Master, let's go back so as not to disturb the old lady."

Fang Shuming didn't move, just looked at Lu Rushuang steadily.

"Explain to me how many credits you and the old lady have coveted together."

When Lu Manqing heard this, he was so frightened that he almost lost his soul.

However, she couldn't admit it,

"Master, you must have heard wrong just now."

"It's just that I need some silver, so I came to borrow some from the old lady."

"Maybe I spoke a little hastily, which made the old lady unhappy for a while, and that's why we had a few quarrels."

"It's impossible to be greedy for ink and give back."

After hearing Lu Manqing's sophistry, Fang Shuming slapped her with his backhand.

"Bring me in."

As soon as he finished speaking, two servants came in with an accountant.

Lu Manqing recognized this accountant.

She couldn't help but look at Lu Rushuang.

Lu Rushuang closed her eyes and began to pretend to be asleep on the bed, not caring about what happened.

In short, she is an elder, the old lady of the Duke's Mansion.

The old Marquis has passed away, no matter how big a mistake she made, no one has the right to abandon her and go home.

What's more, it's just a matter of money. At most, I can just make up for it.

As for the shortfall that cannot be made up, it will only be given up in the end.

They can't do anything to her.

Unless, Fang Shuming no longer wants fame and face.

The accountant is holding a thick stack of ledgers.

"Master Guo, here are the real accounts of the Duke's Mansion for the past ten years."

"The account book clearly records that in the past ten years, the old lady has embezzled a total of 335,600 taels from the Duke's mansion."

Hearing this number, Lu Manqing opened his mouth in shock.

It seems that she is relatively young. Her aunt has been in charge of the middle minister of the Duke's Mansion for at least sixteen or seventeen years.

Then her greedy money is far more than 300,000 taels.

It's really cruel to hold so much money in your hands, but you are not willing to lend yourself ten thousand taels.

Lu Manqing couldn't help but start to feel resentful again.

Lu Rushuang continued to pretend to be asleep on the bed with her eyes closed.

Fang Shuming had heard the accountant settle accounts with him long ago.

He specifically asked him to say it again, just for Lu Rushuang and Lu Manqing.

Since Lu Rushuang wanted to take advantage of others, he would just deal with the matter clearly.

"Stepmom, I know you are not asleep."

Fang Shuming saluted in the direction of the bed.

"Today, I will make clear arrangements for Zhongfu."

"Over the years, both my father and I have placed great trust in you."

"I left the entire Duke's Mansion to you to take care of, but I didn't realize that you actually wanted to empty out the entire Duke's Mansion to subsidize your parents' family."

"I'm very disappointed, but for my father's sake, I will still call you stepmother."

"But I won't bother you with the Central Feedback in the future."

"As well as the dowry left by my deceased wife, please leave it all to Ling'er."

Lu Rushuang was lying on the bed, and she could hear every word Fang Shuming said very clearly.

She gritted her teeth, her whole body trembling with anger.

"In the future, your old man's food and clothing expenses will be as usual. These will not short-change you."

As he spoke, Fang Shuming called his servants again and gave them the dowry list left by Mrs. Sun.

"You go and pry open the door of the old lady's warehouse and move things according to this list."

"Whatever is missing, break it into silver and offset it with fine pieces of gold and silver."

"Yes."

The servant responded and was about to go to the warehouse.

Lu Rushuang finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"I wonder which of you dares?"

"Fang Shuming, I really didn't expect you to be such an unfilial son."

"You dare to ask people to pry into my warehouse. I am your mother. You are disobedient."

"Aren't you afraid that I will file a complaint to the Queen?"

She was so angry that she stood up and pointed at Fang Shuming with trembling fingers,

"Your father is gone, so you bully me and help me."

"I have asked myself all my life that I have done nothing wrong. Even if there are some mistakes in Guan Zhongfu, so what?"

"Your father never took care of Zhongfu's accounts when he was alive. Now you want to settle old accounts. It's really unfilial and rebellious."

"If your father knew about it, I don't know what he would think."

When Fang Shuming saw that Lu Rushuang directly accused him of being unfilial, he could only stand respectfully and did not dare to say anything more.

The servants who had received the order were so frightened that they fell to their knees and did not dare to make any more moves.

Fang Jinhang couldn't accept it when he saw that his step-grandmother had changed from normal and became so unreasonable.

There is an unreal feeling.

He even pinched his arm hard...

咝…

It hurts.

It turned out to be not a dream.

But Lu Rushuang's reaction was within Fang Ling's expectation.
