After binding the mistress system, raise cubs and train husbands in the mansion

"Oh? It seems that mother knows everything about Yunsheng Restaurant?"

The old lady paused for a moment when asked this question. She didn't know how to answer, but then she thought that Yun Zhihan was the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, and everything she had should belong to the Marquis' Mansion.

"Although I only know a little bit, based on my understanding of Lin Da, he would never do anything to let down the Marquis' Mansion."

Yuan raised her head with a hint of joy in her eyes. If she couldn't touch Yunsheng Restaurant, then Yun Zhihan would not have an easy time either. In the worst case scenario, no one could take over.

Yun Zhihan looked at the two women with contempt in his heart. The old lady had embezzled his money and fine ingredients, and he hadn't asked for an explanation yet. Now they were the first to file a complaint. Who gave them the courage?

"It seems that mother is determined and believes that Lin Da was wrongly accused?"

"Of course." Mrs. Xie thought her daughter-in-law had compromised, and immediately pressed the issue, "Before anything serious happens, quickly find Lin Da and the others, make amends to them, and then this matter will be over."

Her good life was all thanks to Lin Da's support. If he left, what would she do with her food? She couldn't enjoy the food for the past two days. She really couldn't stand it.

Yun Zhihan ignored her and asked Jinshang to go to the room to get the account book. Since the old lady wanted to settle the accounts, they had to make it clear to avoid being criticized by outsiders for mistreating her. Coincidentally, the servants were also there.

"Mother, please be patient. Once the account book is brought back, the truth will be revealed."

"Ledger? What ledger?" the old lady was very flustered.

Yun Zhihan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but did not answer, just waiting for the evidence to come back.

A moment later, Jinshang hurried back and handed the account book to his wife.

"Mother, this is the account book of Yunsheng Restaurant. Please take a look."

As she spoke, she handed over the account book and continued, "Over the years, I have neglected the management of the restaurant, which has made Lin Da even more daring. He even dared to secretly replace the top-quality ingredients such as deer antlers, ginseng, bird's nests, and sea cucumbers and give them to others."

"That's not all. They also made fake and forged food for the customers. As a result, the restaurant suffered countless losses and even customers stopped coming."

"Mother, do you know about these things?" Yun Zhihan smiled at her with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Of course the old lady knew, because all these things went into her mouth.

"Yes, is that so? Is this true?" The old lady's sweat was visibly dripping.

"Of course, this was admitted by Lin Da himself. That day, the guys and Chen Er were also present. If mother doesn't believe it, she can ask them to confront her face to face."

"Jin Shang, is the Third Young Master here?"

"Madam, the Third Young Master is waiting outside."

Yun Zhihan nodded and looked at Madam Xie, "Mother, should we ask Chen'er to come in? Although this child is a little naughty, he never lies when it comes to major issues."

The old lady didn't dare, for she was afraid that Bo Chen would hand her over. The child was straightforward and not as secretive as her daughter-in-law.

But Yun Zhihan didn't give her a chance, "Jin Shang, call the Third Young Master in."

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Bochen walked in from outside.

"Mom, I heard everything you said outside. I can testify that it was Lin Da who brought these high-quality ingredients to grandma. Lin Da admitted it himself."

After he finished speaking, the room became as quiet as death. The servants didn't even dare to breathe loudly, but their eyes betrayed them.

For so many years, the old lady actually secretly took ingredients from the lady’s restaurant?

Or is it top-quality ingredients? If this gets out, it will prove that the Xie family is relying on women to make a living.

The one with the coldest face was Madam Xie. This was the first time since she married into the Marquis's Mansion that someone had poked her in the back in front of her children, grandchildren and servants.

Where will she put her old face in the future? It is not right to get angry now, nor is it right to swallow her anger.

Yuan was full of surprise. She thought she could use this to suppress Yun Zhihan, but she didn't expect that the old lady would be exposed. This time she is finished.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Yun Zhihan spoke to break the silence.

"Mother, you have read the account book and know the truth. Do you think your daughter-in-law did the right thing?"

This sentence is not a question, but an affirmative sentence.

"Of course!" The old lady's voice was trembling. What else could she say but "Yes, I was negligent about this matter. I should have informed you."

Yun Zhihan smiled faintly and said nothing. "Mother, you are embarrassing your daughter-in-law by saying this. But the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulate that even if a woman marries into her husband's family, the dowry still belongs to her."

"The husband's family is not allowed to embezzle a woman's dowry under any pretext. Mother, that's what the law says, right?"

"Yes, yes." The old lady sneered.

Yun Zhihan took out the deed again and placed it in front of the old lady. "Mother, this is the inheritance my father left me. It is part of my daughter-in-law's dowry. If you want to take it, at least let me know."

"Yes, yes." Madam Xie's hands trembled slightly. She might have forgotten that Yunsheng Restaurant belongs to the Yun family, not the Xie family.

Xie Bochen looked at his greedy grandmother and roared, "You also took one thousand taels of silver from my mother!"

After hearing this, Yun Zhihan immediately told Bo Chen to shut up, "Chen'er, don't be rude! The first thing to do is to respect your parents, and the second is not to humiliate them. Do you remember?"

"Remember." Although Bai Chen was angry, he still shut his mouth obediently, lowered his head, and stood aside.

But the damage was done. It was too late to take it back. The words had been spoken and everyone had heard them. Even if the old lady had a thick skin, she could not face her descendants and servants anymore.

After hearing this, Yuan lowered her head even deeper. She didn't expect that she would shoot herself in the foot this time. It was all her fault for acting rashly without conducting a thorough investigation.

Yun Zhihan decided to give the old lady a way out, "Mother, don't listen to Chen'er's nonsense. I'll give you one thousand taels as a gift to honor you as your daughter-in-law. You don't have to take it to heart."

It's okay to show respect, but you still have to pay back what you owe. Also, this is my money, no one else can touch it.

"But from now on, I will take care of Yunsheng Restaurant myself. After all, this is what my father asked me to do when he was alive. As a daughter, I cannot fulfill my filial duty to him, so I should not cause trouble to you after he dies."

Old Madam Xie was speechless and could only nod in agreement.

"Mother, now that the matter has been clarified, your daughter-in-law will take her leave first."

"it is good."

Yun Zhihan just stood up and turned around to remind him, "Jin Shang, take the deed and account book. Keep these important things well and don't let anyone take them away."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Bo Chen, come back with me."

"Yes, mother."

After the three of them left together, Old Madam Xie lost her balance and almost fell, luckily she had a maid to support her.

"Ma'am, how are you?"

"Hel me back!"

"Yes!"

Yuan was unwilling to give in, so she stepped forward and said to the old lady, "Mother, that Yun Zhihan is too arrogant."
