Chapter Thirty-Seven: Self-Inflicted Hardship

On the way to Liufang Hall, Hua Jingwan was thinking about who to guide Fan Turtle all the way. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the beginning, I wanted to hand over Fan Turtle to the head of the guard, but I was not familiar with the height, and I didn't know about it, I only knew that it was a man in his forties with a delicate mustache and as thin as firewood.

The person with a small mustache gives people the feeling of treachery, and he handed over Fan Turtle to Gao Gao Hua Jingwan thought about it and was still not at ease, so he had an idea and decided to hand over Fan Turtle to Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan is in the public gate, seeing that his martial arts cultivation is not low, if she teaches Fan Turtle, it would be the best. Having made up her mind, she went to a heart disease.

Liufang Hall is like a large study, and the adjacent room is guarded by two guards, and Hua Jingwan guessed that the room is a temporary silver treasury in the mansion.

The hall is simply furnished, with a bookcase directly opposite, and a smaller bookcase on the left and right sides; The one on the left is full of account books, in addition to pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and a black bead abacus, which should be the desk of the sixth high school of the bookkeeper and manager of the house; On the right bookcase, in addition to the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, there is also a same black bead abacus, the difference is that there is only a pile of thin paper on it, which is pressed with an inkstone to prevent the wind from blowing the paper from falling to the ground. On the left side of the book case hangs a heavy drapery, the curtain is a sea pattern, although the blue is the base, but it is that deep blue. Hung in a figure-of-eight shape, there is a small dining room in the back.

The arrangement was dull, Hua Jingwan asked Dong'er and Fan Turtle to open the window, and found that the only decoration in the hall was a white jade porcelain vase on the table near the window.

Slowly Teng Teng came to the front of the flower case, and Qianqian Su pointed to opening an account book on the case.

Dong'er asked the guards some basic information and immediately got busy.

After a while, she came in with a pot of tea, and then called that Fan turtle as a subordinate and asked him to follow her to clean up the hall.

Hua Jingwan's takeover of the affairs of the palace was like a spring breeze blowing the earth, and the news spread quickly, and soon after, the big and small stewards of the palace came to see one after another.

They are all gray robes, dressed and behaved similarly, and they are all surnamed Gao, and they met sixteen stewards at once, and Hua Jingwan, who has always had a slight face blindness, secretly complained bitterly. The senior is simply different, with a gray and messy beard, a fat red face, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his face.

Hua Jingwan asked about the situation and asked them to go separately. It just so happens that today is the day when the account is received on the 10th, and the senior year of high school will stay.

After greeting with the senior in high school, Hua Jingwan learned that the senior and the sixth and senior are distant relatives of the Gao family who don't know how many generations apart, and the senior is still the same age as Gao Qing.

"It's the same tiger, but the villain is a kitten!"

The senior in high school seems to be a straightforward person, and he speaks quite funny.

"I'll have to be guided by the fourth uncle in the future!"

"Something! The little Mr. Guan Qianyin. It's just a simple job of plucking beads and taking silver. ”

As he spoke, Gao Ten and Gao Six were nervous.

Just took over the affairs of the house, and asked everyone to support it strongly, and said that Gao Liu was Mr. Ledger, in front of Gao Si, Hua Jingwan didn't mention the number of items filled in by Gao Liu at the north side door, so he had to be appeased.

After Gao Shi and Gao Liu kowtowed to thank each other, Gao Shi went out, and Gao Liu bowed to Hua Jingwan, and said vaguely, "Young lady!" Today's events? ”

"Remember!"

Hua Jingwan's words were simple and simple, and she couldn't hear the clues in the senior year. I only felt that the new lady was talking strangely, strange and strange, and he gave Hua Jingwan an appreciative look at Hua Jingwan's categorical tone.

Knowing that Gao Liu had to do accounts, Hua Jingwan gave the account book in her arms to Gao Liu, and Gao Liu buried himself in the case and began to change the numbers one by one.

The senior sat idly, and Hua Jingwan chatted with the senior simbles.

For about twenty minutes, Hua Jingwan heard the crisp sound of the beads colliding, and she turned her head to look.

At this time, the fingers of the high six plucking beads were as fast as phantoms, and at a rough look, he seemed to be repeating a plucking action mechanically, but it was different. Looking at Hua Jingwan, her eyes lit up. I thought to myself, relying on computers all day long, I almost forgot the abacus formulas I learned when I was a child, and now I don't have a computer, so I have to review my abacus well.

After chatting with Gao Si for a while, Gao Liu carefully presented her with a ten-page list of all the expenses of the palace during this period.

is worthy of Mr. Bookkeeper, every account has been calculated in a very short time. And the other expenses and prices Hua Jingwan didn't know whether it was true or false, but the number of items he saw today was a real number, and he calculated it by heart, and the number was correct, so he handed the list to the senior high.

The senior held his glasses and began to check the beads.

He said that he was dazzled, but the hand that plucked the beads was not ambiguous at all, and he was as skilled as a shadow, like a high school sixth.

All are masters! Hua Jingwan secretly admired in her heart.

The sound of the beads stopped, and Gao Si saluted Hua Jingwan and called Gao Liu out. But he suddenly turned around and asked Hua Jingwan for the key to the silver vault.

Hua Jingwan was dumbfounded all of a sudden, no one mentioned the key to her!

Gao Si hurriedly explained, saying that there were two locks in the temporary treasury, and he kept the key to one lock, but the key to the other lock was kept by Gao Gao.

"The big butler didn't give me the key!"

Gao Si lifted his glasses and said with a smile: "I think there are too many high-level things, I forgot about it." ”

I don't know if it's true or fake! Hua Jingwan then instructed Dong'er to go to Gao Gao to ask for the key.

An hour later, Dong'er came back panting, and while she muttered that Gao Gao made it easy for her to find it, she gave Hua Jingwan the key in her hand, and said that Gao Gao explained that she had forgotten.

"He has a lot of things to do today, and it's normal to forget about it." Hua Jingwan gave the key to the senior high school, and listening to the sound of unlocking next door, she began to recall all the stewards she had seen before.

"The beard is two inches long, the one with some upturned is Gao Eight, the face is round like a tomato, the one with a slightly whiter face is Gao Fifteen, and the pig kidney-face is younger than the Nineteen......" muttered after thinking back for a long time, and finally remembered the first three for the time being.

The senior took the money and gave it to the sixth high, and the two of them quit one after another.

After the senior and sixth years of high school went out, Dong'er came in with two plates of snacks, Hua Jingwan ate some, took a sip of tea, and then looked through the accounts on the bookcase.

If you want to learn abacus again, all the things that pass by are traditional characters, and Hua Jingwan, who felt that there was a problem with the account after looking at it for a while, suddenly felt that taking over the affairs of the house was asking for hardship.

It's not good to be a princess in a leisurely manner, you have to take over some affairs in the house!

Looking at the yellowed account books on the shelves in the hall, Hua Jingwan was dizzy. There happened to be a word that I had never seen before, and I didn't bother to bother, so I leaned softly on the bookcase, pointed to the word and looked at Dong'er weakly, "Dong'er!" Do you know the word? ”

Dong'er didn't know how to read at all, and she was eating a piece of dim sum with Fan Turtle for a long time, hesitated to come forward, just glanced at it, and frowned and shook her head.

Don't look at Fan Turtle, he definitely doesn't know him.

Hua Jingwan, who was disheartened, looked at it for a while, and suddenly said with admiration: "The word in front is the word 'person', so the word 'li' should be the word 'ginseng'." ”

'Yes, yes, yes!' Ginseng's pronunciation makes sense! Dong'er bent her eyebrows and nodded.
