Chapter 291 Meeting
Chapter 291 Meeting
Yu Yan raised an eyebrow, a little surprised. Who did Huanxi beat up? That kid or Chu Yu? Huanxi didn't seem like the impulsive type, so why was he so excited this time...
"Ah...I didn't do anything." She waved her hands, feeling a little helpless.
Yu Yan could tell at a glance that she was lying and comforted her with a smile.
"But don't be afraid. The Chu family has always had a good reputation. They probably won't seek revenge on you."
"No, I actually beat up a prince..." Huanxi looked at his hands, the corners of his mouth kept rising. "This is... too cool."
Yu Yan: ???
The corners of Huanxi's mouth continued to curl up. She actually beat up a prince. If this matter were to be made known to others, she would talk about it for the rest of her life.
"Yan Yan, where is He Yuan Yuan?"
Yu Yan looked up at her, pointed in the direction of the staff dormitory and said:
"He said he was in a meeting and just left a while ago."
Huanxi stood up and said with a smile:
"It's time for a meeting. I'll go over first. When I come back, we'll go to the village school."
Yu Yan nodded gently and happily turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
At this time in the staff dormitory, all the employees were standing in the middle of the yard. He Yuanyuan was sitting at the top, holding the account book with an unhappy look on her face.
The account is not right. She has been to the town twice to purchase goods, and the suppliers are the same ones. In terms of price, there won't be much change.
The account book she checked showed that there was more than five taels of silver missing. Since Shuxiangju couldn't find any problems internally, it could only be the batch that was purchased outside.
"Sandong, you went to the town to purchase goods, and it was you and a few others. Who were the two people who went to the town last time?" He Yuanyuan's tone was very serious. The employees below looked at each other and dared not speak.
Sandong stood up and said:
"To reply to Manager He, the last time my child had a stomachache, it was Manyue and Dahe who went there."
Man Yue and Da He looked at each other and walked out of the crowd, saluted and said:
"Manager He, the last time we went to town, we bought everything at the usual prices. There was nothing wrong with that."
"That's right, Steward He. Everything has a price. Even if we had a hundred guts, we wouldn't dare to steal the master's money."
The two of them chatted back and forth, successfully arousing He Yuanyuan's impatience.
"Did I ask you to answer? Did I ask you anything?"
Man Yue and Da He immediately lowered their heads and acted as if they were being scolded.
He Yuanyuan picked up this account book and compared it with the previous account books. Soon she noticed some abnormalities.
In addition to some special dishes ordered by guests, Shuxiangju will also add what guests want to eat in the reservation. These days, apart from the guests in the winter courtyard, there are not many tables of guests in other courtyards.
But out of nowhere, there were extra dishes on the menu that the customer didn't order.
In addition, the purchase orders during those days were more expensive than usual.
He Yuanyuan sneered twice and slammed the account book heavily on the table.
"Okay, fine. Do you take me for a fool?"
During this period, she was also busy with the Dream of the Red Chamber and was a bit slack in the management of Shuxiangju, which gave these people an opportunity to take advantage of her.
When the people below saw her so busy, they knelt down. Except for Chunliu and Xiahe in the kitchen, the rest of them knelt in a row.
"Man Yue, Da He, are you two going to confess on your own, or do I force you to confess?"
The two people whose names were called looked at each other and didn't dare to speak. It was Sandong who took over the conversation and said:
"Manager He, calm down. This is my fault. I don't blame them..."
Papapa
Huanxi walked out from behind the crowd, clapping his hands and laughing:
"Okay, okay, Sandong, do you like to be a good person?"
She stood at the door for a long time and saw this wonderful show.
"Sister, you're here... I'm sorry, I've neglected my duty." He Yuanyuan stepped forward to apologize. Her sister had handed over the affairs of Shuxiangju to her, but she still hadn't done a good job...
"It's not your fault. No one is supernatural. Some mistakes are inevitable." She comforted He Yuanyuan and asked her to stay calm.
When the employees saw the lady coming, they quickly bowed and greeted her.
After Huanxi sat down, he picked up the account book and casually flipped through it twice, and he found out which link had the problem.
"Man Yue, Da He, what percentage did you tell the waiter? And for those of you serving the dishes, how did you like the taste when you were sneaking in some?"
The people named by the lady immediately began to beg for mercy, and the effect was more obvious than He Yuanyuan slamming the table.
Huanxi looked at the few people with great interest, already thinking about what to do with them.
"Madam... Madam, we were just greedy... Please spare us, Madam, we won't dare to do it again..."
"It smelled so good, we just couldn't resist. We won't do it again."
Several women were talking to each other, but Huanxi did not respond to them.
"How do you want to be punished? Do I tell you or do you figure it out?"
"According to the Shuxiangju employee handbook, if you embezzle money, three months of your monthly salary will be deducted from your salary."
Huanxi nodded, without taking his eyes off the group of people:
"Very good, let's do it. However, since this is the first time, I don't want to impose a heavy punishment. If it happens again, I'll just beat him up and sell him out." Then he continued:
"But Manyue Dahe, you can't punish me like that. Stealing food is a small matter. At least it's an internal matter within Shuxiangju. You colluded with the vegetable owner to take kickbacks. Was this something you two came up with, or was it someone else's idea?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a hint of panic in the eyes of the two people.
"Very good... If I don't tell you, all five of you guards should stop..."
As soon as these words came out, except for Manyue Dahe and Sandong, the remaining two guards immediately knelt down and said:
"Ma'am, I know, I know. It was Man Yue Da He and the other two who had planned this. They stole three taels of silver! I saw it and hid it under their pillows!"
"That's right, Dahe has taken a fancy to Kexin from Xiayuan. He was even sending her silk flowers a few days ago."
When Man Yue and Da He heard that the truth had been revealed, they immediately began to kowtow and beg for mercy:
"Madam, we were wrong. We were bewildered. We will never dare to do it again. Madam, please forgive us this time. We will never dare to do it again, never again, madam." The speaker was Dahe. He could not be sold. If he was sold, he would never see Kexin again.
On the other hand, Man Yue frowned, bit her lips and said nothing, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Huanxi hates dealing with this kind of people the most:
"Sandong, that's not what good people do. Did you eat the food these two gave you when you had a stomachache last time?"
Sandong's expression froze, and he immediately began to recall...
After a moment, he nodded with a pale face and looked at Man Yue and Da He in disbelief.
"Knock him out, tie him up, and sell him off in town this afternoon. Shuxiangju won't keep people like him."
When Dahai heard this, he was overwhelmed and started begging for mercy even more fiercely.
The strange Man Yue's mouth curled up uncontrollably as if his plan had succeeded, and Huanxi immediately caught his abnormality.
