As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Huang knelt down in front of Su Qingwan with a thud:

"Madam, please make the decision for this servant."

"Ever since I moved out from Sister Xin's place, I have been living in Aunt Hong's courtyard."

"She deducts my things every day."

"First, the clothes and jewelry, then the monthly allowance, she deducted half of it."

"Today they went too far, even my food was cut, from four dishes to two."

"Please Madam, please make the decision!"

If Aunt Hong hadn't gone too far, she would never have dared to make a fuss.

She is not very smart. Last time, she followed Aunt Xin to give Su Qingwan a warning, but ended up being locked up for several days.

She knew that the lady was not easy to mess with, and she was the one who made the mistake, so naturally she had to keep a low profile.

But this Aunt Hong is going too far.

If this goes on, she's afraid she'll die here.

When she heard that the lady's sister was coming today, she thought of taking this opportunity to make a big scene and let the lady judge the matter.

After hearing what Aunt Huang said, Su Qingwan looked at Aunt Hong:

"Auntie Hong, what do you have to say?"

Upon hearing this, Aunt Hong also knelt down quickly:

"Ma'am, I have never done anything like this. I just did what I was told."

Aunt Hong also looked angry.

She was already a little unhappy about Aunt Huang moving into her yard. Who would want to have another person in the yard?

This person just wants to slander her!

Seeing that Aunt Hong refused to admit it, Aunt Huang swore to the heaven:

"Madam, if I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

Without waiting for Su Qingwan to express her opinion, Aunt Hong continued:

"Who wouldn't swear?"

"Ma'am, I swear too that I have no intention of targeting her."

Seeing the two people about to quarrel again, Su Qingwan's heart skipped a beat. She flicked the teacup on the table to the ground:

"enough!"

Seeing that she was angry, neither of them dared to speak.

Su Qingwan calmed down her annoyance and asked someone to call Zhou Shan over.

During this period, she was busy with the shop's affairs, and Zhou Shan handled all the affairs in the mansion according to the previous rules.

Come to think of it, this was her first month as the head of the household, and who could have known that something like this would go wrong.

If this incident were to get out, people outside would definitely think that she was not managing the family well enough.

So, this matter is directed at her?

In just a few breaths, Su Qingwan figured out the whole thing.

But who did it?

Several figures flashed through Su Qingwan's mind, but she wasn't sure who they were.

She looked at Aunt Huang and Aunt Hong again.

The former was given to Yan Mingjue by someone else. She was beautiful, a skinny girl from the south of the Yangtze River, and didn't seem to have any brains.

However, it would be strange if people coming out of those places didn't have some tricks up their sleeves.

As for Concubine Hong, according to the information she had received, she was the daughter of Yan Mingjue's wet nurse and had a special status in the mansion. Even when Concubine Xin was the most favored, she did not dare to offend Concubine Hong.

Aunt Hong prides herself on being an old lady following Yan Mingjue, and looks down on other concubines. She has always only been on good terms with Aunt Qin.

Thinking of this, Su Qingwan lowered her eyes calmly again.

Today's incident has caused such a big fuss that those concubines can really sit still.

Even Aunt Qin, who was on good terms with Aunt Hong, did not come.

Her eyes darkened and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Soon, Zhou Shan came over. On the way, he had heard what happened. Before Su Qingwan could speak, he knelt down and said:

"Ma'am, this month's allowance remains the same as before. There is no change."

As he said this, he quickly handed over this month's report card.

Su Qingwan took it and glanced at it, then looked at Aunt Hong:

"You are the one who collected all the share of Aunt Huang's money?"

"Yes!"

Aunt Hong lowered her head and said.

"Why?"

As soon as Su Qingwan finished speaking, Aunt Hong looked at her in surprise:

"Didn't you, Madam, tell me to take Aunt Huang's share and then give it to her?"
