She turned into a noble lady in the book, she wanted to lie down

Chapter 28 28. Confronting the Brazen Father
"Yes."

Chunnuan went down lightly and gave orders.

For a while, everyone in the mansion knew that a lot of things had been lost in the small warehouse in Shuyi Garden, and the princess was ordering a strict investigation of the accounts.

In the evening, not long after it was time to go down to the palace, Liu Tingfeng, who hadn't set foot in the Princess's Mansion for two days, hurried into Shuyi Garden.

Liu Xinning got the notice and looked at the hourglass—it's urgent!
After Liu Tingfeng entered, he sat down at the first seat.Liu Xinning saluted and sat down next to her.

Liu Tingfeng, who was sitting in the first place, had another trace of disgust flashed between his brows, and Liu Xinning had a clear panoramic view.

"I heard you were checking the accounts in the yard? Was something missing?"

Liu Tingfeng waved away all the servants, raised his majesty as a father, and asked directly without even saying anything about the scene.

"Yes. My daughter's previous maids have all been sent out, and this new maid took over these accounts, booklets and the like, and naturally had to take inventory. After going back and forth, I found that a lot of things were missing. This is nothing more than ordinary , so many precious things, you can’t fool them like this, otherwise people will laugh at me for being so big that I can’t even manage a yard.”

Liu Xinning said with a shy look.

"The most important thing for women is to be chaste and virtuous, to know books and to be courteous. What do you do with so many vulgar things? Messing with those vulgar things will just ruin the reputation of our family of poets and books." Liu Tingfeng frowned, looking like he was teaching. look.

Vulgar things, vulgar things, without these vulgar things, wouldn't Liu Tingfeng, the son-in-law, have to drink the northwest wind?He had the nerve to say so!

"But my grandmother said that when a girl grows up, she should know how to run a house."

Actually, the Queen Mother never said that to Liu Xinning.

After all, the Queen Mother is among the people who dote on Liu Xinning, how could she be willing to work hard for Liu Xinning?
In the eyes of the queen mother, even if Liu Xinning is married, she will choose a loyal nanny to take care of her.

However, now that Liu Xinning moved the queen mother out, no one would go to the queen mother to verify it in person.

Sure enough, when Liu Tingfeng heard that Liu Xinning had moved the queen mother out, he couldn't say such vulgar things anymore.

"What's missing?"

"Gold inlaid emerald and pearl crown, tribute moon shadow gauze, pink and blue carved glazed porcelain vase, Xiaoyaozi sunrise landscape painting..."

Liu Xinning was also polite, and said a few things about what was lost.

Liu Tingfeng listened, but interrupted Liu Xinning, "That pearl crown was given to your aunt on her birthday. The moon shadow gauze was given to your aunt's cousin. That porcelain vase is When your grandmother celebrated her birthday, I gave it to her. I had a Shangguan banquet for that painting, and I took it as a gift... I told you at the beginning, I went to the small warehouse to choose something for human relations , it's not like you don't know."

"But my father only said so many times... There are a lot of lost things." Liu Xinning read the names of a few more lost things.

"What is a lost thing? I am your father. I go to your small warehouse to choose something for human relations, and I have to tell you every time? Do you still think of me as your father?"

Liu Tingfeng was a little annoyed, and his voice became louder and louder.

Listening to Liu Tingfeng's words, Liu Xinning was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

In her previous life, it's not that she hasn't seen people stealing other people's things, and it's only natural for her to be shameless.

Even when she was working part-time as a food delivery, there were people who stole the food and were caught by surveillance, in front of the police, they still smiled and acted as if nothing happened.

She just didn't expect that Liu Tingfeng would tear off his hypocritical face because of such a trivial matter.

Was she overestimating him?Or Liu Tingfeng's machismo, who doesn't think it's a problem at all?
"It's my thing. Before father takes my things, don't you need to tell me?" Liu Xinning asked indifferently.

"You also know that I am your father. Aren't your things mine? You are too unfilial. Is that what your mother taught you?" Liu Tingfeng labeled Liu Xinning as unfilial.

"Taking something without warning is called stealing!"

"A rebellious girl. How dare you say that your father stole? Unfilial, very unfilial." Liu Tingfeng was furious, "You are about to marry Ji, and you are going to marry me. Are you really not afraid of the reputation of being unfilial?"

"You, a father, are not afraid of stealing your reputation. Am I, a miserable master, still afraid of being unfilial?" Liu Xinning confronted.

Liu Tingfeng was annoyed by Liu Xinning, who rarely looked like this, he pressed desperately to transform into a loving father to teach him.

"Look at you, you are delicate and weak, you are not good at poetry and calligraphy, and your talent is not well-known. You have the name of a princess. What kind of good family can you find? The princess in the capital, except you, are all The real Xiao family. You, a person with a foreign surname, are sealed by His Majesty for the empress dowager's face. If you spread a bad reputation, it will not only be your own business, but it will also implicate the eldest princess, the empress dowager, and even the sage. If there is a censor participating in the performance, I'm afraid you, the princess, can't do it. Therefore, you'd better not cause criticism to the royal family."

Liu Tingfeng was still able to use a teaching tone at first, but the more he could bear it, the more he couldn't help it, and he still threatened.

Liu Xinning listened to the eldest princess, the queen mother and others, but fell silent.

This is the disadvantage of feudal society.In many cases, it is all prosperity and one loss.

Her own behavior will be promoted to the family and elders more.

She was not afraid that the reputation of herself and the Liu family would be ruined, but she was afraid that the empress dowager and the emperor, the two golden thighs, would not be trusted by him.

Regardless of reputation, the queen mother and the emperor are willing to spoil her.What if reputation is involved?
"Okay, let's stop here for this matter of checking accounts. Good girl, what are you doing with vulgar things!"

Seeing Liu Xinning's silence, Liu Tingfeng knew that he had used filial piety and fame to control her, so he talked for a long time, and finally came to this conclusion.

"It's just right, you let the servant girl open the storeroom. At , Prince An's Mansion hosted a banquet, and I will choose a gift. King An likes landscape paintings the most. I remember you have a good one in your small storeroom."

Liu Tingfeng said with some complacency.

In the past, Liu Xinning admired him very much, and always listened to him very much.Doing this now is probably instigated by the people around him.

This time he was busy with other things, but he forgot to arrange a personal maid beside Liu Xinning.But it doesn't matter, he will change it later.

There is also that Chun Nuan, who was loyal to the eldest princess before, but now that she is by Liu Xinning's side, she might be in the way, and she will have to be dealt with later.

Liu Tingfeng was thinking about this and that like a tide, but seeing that Liu Xinning hadn't moved, he couldn't help looking at her in doubt.

"The things in the warehouse were given by my grandmother, my uncle, and relatives and friends, but none of them were given by my father. Since they belong to me, I have the right to make decisions. The things before, since my father took them away Yes, I will give you face, so I won't take it back. In the future, it will not be so easy to want my things again. "

Liu Xinning said in a low voice, but coldly.

The original owner was fooled by Liu Tingfeng, and sent out a lot of things for no apparent reason; the previous maids were all dead again without proof.

As long as Liu Tingfeng insisted that she gave it to her, not only would the item not come back, but she would also get a reputation of being unfilial by framing her elders.

So those things, she can't take them back at this time.

However, she will settle the bill in the future.

But now, Liu Tingfeng don't want to take any more stitches from her hands.

"You rebellious girl..." Liu Tingfeng was furious, and his voice became louder.

"What are you talking about, father? The father won't let the daughter look up the lost things, and the daughter just doesn't want to. Why is the father so angry? This is, is this... is he going to hit me? Daughter, what did the daughter do wrong?"

Liu Xinning quietly retreated to the entrance of the main hall, and cried loudly towards the outside, with a heartbroken attitude.

Listening to Liu Xinning's cry, the servants outside the door couldn't help but look at each other in amazement.

Immediately, Chun Nuan took the lead in opening the thick curtain and rushing in.

Then the four maids and Mei Rui, Lan Rui, Xingrui and He Rui from the second class also rushed in.

After entering, everyone saw Liu Tingfeng standing in front of Liu Xinning with a livid face.

And Liu Xinning sat down at the door with a pale face, protecting her head and face with her arms in a panic.

It looked like Liu Tingfeng was about to hit someone, and Liu Xinning ran away in a panic but unfortunately fell down.
