On the first day of marriage, everything that should be done has to be done, Xie Yiying is already the housewife, Zhou Jin took her to recognize the palace and meet the housekeeper Zhao Xi.

Xie Yiying sat in his position, supporting his head with one hand, and tilted his body to look at Zhao Xi. Zhao Xi arched his back below, hung his head and muttered in his heart What is this imperial concubine thinking, and after a while, he thanked Yiying and said I remember this face.

She was actually a little distracted just now, these things were very different from her previous cognitive habits, so she occasionally had the illusion of time and space, and she couldn't help but be distracted.

The accounts of the palace used to be managed by Zhao Xi, but now that there is an imperial concubine, it should be returned to the imperial concubine, and the financial personnel of the palace, the power of life and death, should be handed over to Xie Yiying.

Xie Yiying hesitated for a moment, then turned her head to look at Zhou Jin: "Do you have to let me do it?" ”

"Huh? Don't you want to? ”

Xie Yiying grinned dryly twice: "I don't know how to." ”

She really doesn't know how to do it, she has studied accounting before, and she can do everything with vouchers and statements, but it's too different from these, the matters are different, the methods are different, and it is too brain-consuming to learn it now.

Zhou Jin didn't know what she thought, was she pretending to shirk? Or do you really not want to touch it? After all, the two people are now not so much husband and wife as partners, since they are partners, both sides should give each other something out, in order to consolidate the solid process of cooperation. Xie Yiying has already handed her over, and he should also hand over some rights.

After thinking about it, Zhou Jin felt that this should just be a part of the humility in the procedure.

"I won't just learn a little, there are not many things in the house."

"Oh." Xie Yiying responded, feeling that if he ate other people's food, he had to work for others.

Both sides thought about it, and they both felt that they had done what the other person wanted.

So they got along more frankly.

After lunch, Zhou Jin went to the study, and thanked Yiying for letting Zhao Xi move all the account books and start learning by himself.

More than a dozen account books, thank you for the headache of Yingying. While keeping accounts, it is necessary to sort out the relationships between relatives and friends. She simply reopened the ledger again, and everything was rearranged in the format of her own accustomed financial statements.

One for others to see, one for himself, Xie Yiying thought, it can be regarded as an internal account and an external account.

Zhou Jin was discussing things with people in the study until the moon was up, and when she saw that the time had passed, she asked someone to prepare the meal, only to find that Xie Yiying hadn't eaten yet, thinking that she was waiting for herself, so she went back to the house and prepared to join her.

It's like entering the bedroom and finding that it's cold and you don't want to prepare a meal, which is very different from the scene where you imagined your wife preparing a meal and waiting patiently for her husband.

Luluo came out of the back room and saw Zhou Jin hurriedly saluting, and explained in a low voice: "Madame looked at the accounts for the afternoon, and just went to sleep, and the slave and maid called Madame up." ”

Zhou Jin waved her hand, signaling that she didn't need to move. I walked to the back room with a light step, and saw Xie Yiying lying on the table with a pile of ledgers in front of him. There was a coat on his body, probably just covered by pothos. He leaned over to help her pull her coat up again, and when he looked down, he saw a few ink marks on her porcelain-like face, and I don't know how it was rubbed, like a cat.

Then he took out an account book and looked through it, and saw that there were several horizontal and vertical lines on it, and there were some chaotic circles. Zhou Jin didn't know what this meant, he recalled it and found that he had never seen anyone record things like this in other places.

Probably the sound of turning the page woke up Xie Yiying, she rubbed her eyes and sat up: "What time is it?" ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Jin saw that she was still sleepy-eyed, and raised her hand to scoop up her clothes.

Xie Yiying reacted at this time: "What time is it?" I found him holding the ledger in his hand, and I took it and turned two pages, "What's wrong?" ”

"What is this?"

“Morsecode。” She casually made a bad joke, and then realized that Zhou Jin didn't understand, sighed rather lonely, and explained: "Actually, it's still the original account, but it's just a different notation, so that others can't understand it, what do you think?" ”

Of course, this is an excuse, she is just trying to save trouble, translating things into her own familiar ones for better understanding and memory.

Zhou Jin didn't ask her where she learned this method or what those ghost talismans represented, he thought in his heart that this was more difficult to understand than the usual method of hiding accounts, maybe he could consider giving some shady things to Xie Yiying to take care of.

Wait...... You can trust her at the time.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Xie Yiying deeply, Xie Yiying was looking down to sort out the accounts, and did not notice his gaze.

Divide the things into several stacks, and Xie Yiying instructed Luluo to summon Zhao Xi to take the things away.

Zhou Jin remembered to answer her question of what time it was, "Let's just have dinner together." ”

"Oh." Xie Yiying yawned and rubbed his nose with the back of his hand, but the ink on his face rubbed half of his face. Green pothos looked at it and laughed, took out a handkerchief and wanted to wipe her face, Xie Yiying didn't know it yet, and looked at her ignorantly and didn't know what she was laughing at.

Zhou Jin didn't smile, took the handkerchief and wiped her face slowly, thanked Yiying and blinked her eyes, reacted and smiled at people.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps outside.

"Master, something happened." Someone broke in without asking for instructions, Xie Yiying turned his head to look, and found that it was an entourage next to Zhou Jin, named Geng Ming.

Zhou Jin's expression did not change, he lowered his head and focused on wiping his daughter-in-law's face little by little before raising his voice and asking, "What's the matter?" The tone is flat and uneventful.

"In the kitchen, there's a dead man."

Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes and handed the handkerchief back to the pothos. "I'll take a look." walked to the door and stopped, and looked back at Xie Yiying: "Are you afraid?" "Someone has just died in the house, and he doesn't worry about leaving Xie Yiying alone in the house, but if you take her to the kitchen, there is still a corpse waiting for them there.

"Well, sort of." Xie Yiying said and followed him calmly.

Zhou Jin didn't care about it anymore.

The body was not moved, and as soon as you entered the kitchen, you could see that it was Aunt Li, the head chef. This is the first time Xie Yiying has seen her, I didn't expect it to be this kind of occasion, Xie Yiying thought to herself.

Aunt Li's eyes widened, her hands tightly grabbed her collar, as if she was strangled by something before she died, and she couldn't breathe, and a large amount of black and red blood gushed out of her nose and mouth. You don't have to look closely to tell that she died in great pain.

Xie Yiying suddenly remembered that there was an old lawyer in Miss Marple who said that although the corpse is often used as the beginning of a murder in novels, in fact it should be the end.

Within ten minutes of saying this, the old man also became an end.

The two maidservants behind him, Green Pothos and Qingmei, screamed when they saw the terrible corpse. Xie Yiying knew that it was not to blame that they were afraid, so she waved her hand and asked them to wait for her outside the door.

Green pothos hesitated to stay with her, Xie Yiying knew that she was frightened at a glance, smiled and touched the side of her face, and let her go out with confidence.

So the two were no longer reluctant, and as soon as they went out, there was a sound of retching outside the house.

Zhou Jin had already squatted down to carefully examine the corpse, and Xie Yiying stood behind him and frowned.

She thought that when she came back, she would face teamwork, promotion, and salary increase, but now it seems that she is fighting monsters and upgrading, and she will be GG if she is not careful.
