BHBF Chapter 75.4

Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 4) Chapter 75.4: Playful Son (16)

During breakfast, he discovered that Xiao Han treated him and his younger brother differently, but his younger brother was Xiao Han’s biological child after all, so Shao Jiashan could understand Xiao Han’s favoritism.

But now, in the words of Housekeeper Sun, Xiao Han is a thief who stole money from her stepson’s pocket. Such an image is far from the image of a good wife and mother in his mind. How can Shao Jiashan accept it?

“Impossible, you are talking nonsense. Madam’s dowry is generous, how could she covet my mother’s dowry?” Shao Jiashan said.

Manager Sun was the dowry of Mrs. Han. He was also born in the Han family and still has relatives living in the Han family. Therefore, he is more familiar with the situation of the Han family.

“Master, you don’t know that the late Madam’s dowry was so generous because your grandmother came from a prominent family and the old lady had only one daughter, the late Madam. Therefore, after her death, the late Madam inherited all her dowry.”

“But although the current Madam is a sister of the previous Madam, they are from different mothers after all, and Madam has many brothers and sisters, so her dowry is just for show.”

Shopkeeper Sun knew very well that the Han family was not good at business and therefore did not have much wealth, so the dowry they gave to their daughters was mostly glamorous on the surface but completely useless inside.

However, Shao Jiashan still couldn’t believe it. He had always been close to Xiao Han and really didn’t want to keep overturning his ideas about his stepmother on this day.

Shao Yu said, “Madam might appreciate this money.”

“Father?” Shao Jiashan didn’t expect that Shao Yu would make the final decision on this matter.

Shao Yu smiled and said, “This account was deliberately made like this just for your mother to see.”

“Your mother may not understand the prices of these items, but she can definitely make a calculation. She checks the accounts every month, but has never dealt with this matter because she knows the inside story.”

Shao Jiashan listened to Shao Yu’s words and felt that the loopholes in the account were deliberately set up for Xiao Han to see.

Shao Yu then looked at Shao Jiashan and said, “Do you think your mother is the only one with problems in this shop?”

Shopkeeper Sun’s heart skipped a beat. If Xiao Han was greedy for a small portion of the money, then he was greedy for the big portion. Although he was greedy for a lot, he did it secretly, and the entire shop was under his control, so he had not been discovered by Xiao Han.

Shao Yu continued, “As the saying goes, what goes up must come down. Although your mother threatened Shopkeeper Sun, he could have explained the situation to you and me, and we would have organized your mother. But he didn’t do that. Why do you think that was the reason?”

Before Shao Jiashan could answer, Shopkeeper Sun burst into tears and said, “The master is busy with official duties all day long, so I dare not disturb him. The eldest young master is young, and I don’t want him to be involved in these things, so I had to swallow the bitter fruit alone.”

“Bitter fruit?” Shao Yu sneered and said, “You stole Jiashan’s money, and Jiashan is the one who has to bear the bitter fruit. What does this have to do with you?”

Shopkeeper Sun was immediately speechless. In front of Shao Yu, he always seemed to be unable to find a particularly good reason to defend himself.

“If you really remember that you were the late lady’s dowry and really wanted to help Jiashan keep the shop, you wouldn’t do such a thing. You did this only because it is profitable,” said Shao Yu.

Qian Jiong kept lying around, but he felt a little uneasy. After all, although he was invited by Shao Yu to look at the account books, he was getting more and more involved, and even involved a mistress of the house.

Qian Jiong just wanted to get his share of benefits safely and steadily, and did not want to get involved in Shao Yu’s family affairs, but Shao Yu had no intention of asking him to leave at this time, which only made him more uneasy.

“Master, I have been wronged. I have never embezzled money…” said Shopkeeper Sun.

Shao Yu said: “You have only bought four pieces of snow satin in the past year, but I just saw five pieces outside.” Shao Yu said.

Shopkeeper Sun immediately said, “There are two pieces of snow satin left over from last year.”

But Shao Yu seemed to have expected this and asked, “Last year’s snow satin hasn’t even been sold out yet, why are you in such a hurry to get new stock, even the exact same stock?”

Shopkeeper Sun had no way to defend himself, so he could only say, “It was my stupidity that led to such a loss-making business. Please punish me, Master.”

Even now, Shopkeeper Sun still refuses to admit the incident and is still trying to blame his problems on his IQ.

“Zhao Zhong, go and invite the people from Yuchou Cloth Shop.” Shao Yu said.

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Sun was immediately shocked.

All the snow-white satin in the capital comes from Yuchou Cloth Shop. Shopkeeper Sun can change his own account but cannot change other people’s accounts.

Snow satin is the signature product of Yuchou Cloth Shop. They keep records of the whereabouts of every piece of cloth, so there is no worry in finding out how much goods Shopkeeper Sun has purchased.

Shopkeeper Sun naturally understood this principle.

Shao Yu said: “If there is a piece of cloth missing, send the person to Jingzhao Prefecture immediately.”

Shopkeeper Sun begged, “Master, I just did this one thing wrong. I won’t do it again.”

“Considering that I have worked hard over the years, even if I have no credit, please forgive me this time.”

Shao Yu looked at Shao Jiashan.

Shopkeeper Sun immediately turned to Shao Jiashan and pleaded, “Eldest young master, I am the dowry of the late Madam. Please think more about the late Madam. If the late Madam knew that you treated me like this, what would she think?”

Although Xiao Han treated Shao Jiashan very well over the years and Shao Jiashan was also very close to Xiao Han, this does not mean that he does not remember his biological mother who died to give birth to him.

Hearing this, Shao Jiashan’s expression relaxed for a moment.

Seeing that there was hope, Shopkeeper Sun immediately made further efforts. He kept mentioning the late madam and talking about his own difficulties.

Shao Jiashan couldn’t help but look at Shao Yu with pleading eyes.

Shao Yu could have dealt with Shopkeeper Sun quickly and easily, but he kept him here to question him repeatedly. Shao Yu did all this for Shao Jiashan.

Shao Yu’s original intention was never to recover the lost money in the shop, but to let Shao Jiashan see more clearly.
