Sorting out the treasury is indeed a tedious task.

It took Le Xi and Li two hours to turn through the account books before they read two-thirds of them.

Rubbing his dry eyes, Le Xi handed the account book that he had just finished browsing and marking to Li's mother. "Put it on the left stack."

She had just looked at one of the furniture categories, which, like the previous ones, had been removed from the books because it was damaged.

Insect pillars, chips, cracks in the wood, bending and mildew due to moisture are all common causes of wood furniture damage. But the degree of scoring is severe, as long as the reason for the damage is written, it is written off, and more than ten items appear in the next account.

In addition, in addition to furniture, the situation is similar for cloth and porcelain. The number of damaged accounts written off is even higher.

The amount of loss in three years is indeed intriguing.

Le Xi withdrew his gaze from the large stack of account books and turned his head to look at Lee.

Li Shi also frowned at this time, and his face was a little cloudy.

"Mother, there is something wrong with gold, silver and gemstone utensils?" Lexi reached out and took the tea and handed it to Li.

Li put down the account book, took it and took a few sips: "There is not much problem with these utensils, they are the accounts of the account room." It is clear that in the end, the balance of various expenditures, considerable income has shrunk by more than half. The rest had to be put into operation again, and in a few years, the silver that could be taken out of the Bofu Gongzhong was only 30,000 taels. ”

Listening, Le Xi took a look at the account book and roughly calculated: "I can get about 5,000 taels a month, 180,000 taels in three years, and if I remove half, I should also have a balance of 90,000 taels." Invested in the operation of the Zhuangtian shop, no matter how there should be income flowing in again, why only see it but not return. ”

Li nodded, this is the key, there is no reason for compensation.

Mother Xu re-served tea for the Li family and interjected: "Maybe it's because of the drought this year, and the harvest is not good." But the girl's account was calculated so quickly that she didn't even move the abacus, and if the old tent man saw it, she would have to blush. ”

Lexi's eyes rolled. Remembering that there was no ninety-nine mantra in ancient times, he chuckled: "Then I can go to be a female tent." ”

Li Shi snorted her when he heard this, "What kind of female tent room, just that little bit of monthly silver." It's not enough for you to spend money on pen and ink! Then he straightened his face and said: "The drought is just a drought this year, and this year's harvest has not yet been recorded, so I am afraid that this account is also very tired." ”

Mother Xu and Mother Li looked at each other, and their faces became solemn.

"Madam, do you remember the last time you cleared the treasury? You have also noticed this problem. However, after a month of investigation, there was no progress in the end. On the contrary, the gentlemen of the tent room made trouble with the old lady and asked for it. Mother Li carefully observed Li's expression and said.

Li's face changed, she didn't have the memory of the original owner, of course she didn't know. "You didn't remind me, I forgot." said, his expression was as usual, "How can the account room say please go, please go......"

Mother Xu also said: "No, they are threatening Mrs. But the old lady was really frightened, those people were all followed by the old uncle when he was in charge, and his heart was not ordinary arrogance, and he regarded himself as half a master! The old lady was afraid that someone would say that she would force the old man away. chilled the hearts of the people in the house, and the matter was over. ”

Le Xi had already heard the words, and said disdainfully: "The gold is outside, and the defeat is inside, Bofu is afraid that it will be eaten by insects!" Fame... Reputation deserves to be eaten......"

Who's to say it isn't.

Several people in the room knew this truth very well, and the Bi clan was a person who valued fame and honor more than his life.

"Madam, girl, the uncle sent someone, and the Dao is that the Protector and the Prince of Protector have come to the mansion as guests. Invite the lady and the girl to the antechamber. ”

As he was talking, there was a report from the little maid at the door.

Lexi raised an eyebrow. What kind of trouble is there for the people who secretly say that this protector of the country?

I just came yesterday, and I'm here today?!

Moreover, the two foreign men, Le Shaoyuan, let the two of them go. Is it appropriate?!

Li hesitated for a small meeting and responded.

Let Mother Xu put away the account books first, and then look at Le Xi: "Xiaoxi, are you still dressing up?" ”

Hearing this, Le Xi took a look at his homely dress.

The moon-white flowered cardigan was paired with a pleated skirt of soft satin of the same color, and only ribbons were tied to the double bun. Two pearl bead flowers were hairpinned.

It seems to be a little plain.

But after thinking about it again, Le Xi shook his head and said, "Don't change it, trouble." And not a great guest. Then he turned his head sideways and said to Mother Li, "Mother Li, you have someone take back the Huangtian Stone I got and send it to the front hall." ”

Li reached out and poked her head lightly, and smiled: "You're really not going to give people a good face." ”

Le Xi pursed his lips noncommittally, "Maybe I should comb my bangs and expose the scar." ”

Li slapped her hand, sighed lightly in an uncertain mood, and asked people to prepare a seat and go to the front hall of the inner courtyard.

Vestibule.

Le Shaoyuan sipped tea with a blank face, the protector looked calm and relaxed, and Lu Yu sat with his eyes down.

The atmosphere was indescribably weird.

Le Xi and Li got down and entered the house.

The father and son of the protector of the country who practiced martial arts had already known about the arrival of the two.

Lu Yu stood up and saluted the Li family.

Le Xi was beside the Li family, and he didn't avoid it at all, and the protector twitched the corners of his mouth when he saw it.

Lu Yu was very natural, and after a salute, he turned to Le Xi and nodded: "I've seen the three girls." ”

Don't lose at all!

Le Xi slandered in his heart, and his eyes fell on the Protector who was sitting on him, and blessed him: "The little girl has seen the Protector. Ignored Lu Yu.

The Protector is even twitching the corners of his eyes this time, this girl has a character!

And his son is disgusted.

The Protector suppressed his thoughts and looked at Le Xi in front of him.

With creamy skin and delicate facial features, the three girls in this Bofu are really good-looking.

Although Fang Cai's demeanor looked rude, he was restrained and silent. At a young age, it can be considered calm.

The Protector glanced at his son and smiled gently: "Okay, Uncle Anding is really blessed to have such a daughter who is like a flower." ”

Le Shaoyuan's face sank even more when he heard this, and he replied without being salty: "Who is better than the Duke of Protector, Lu Shizi is a young general, and a top-notch young talent among the disciples of the Gengyuan family." ”

The Protector laughed, "So, the two of them are talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven." ”

Le Shaoyuan was almost choked on tea, Le Xi was already glaring, and even Li was slightly surprised.

This protector is too informal, he is not humble, and he still says such things in front of the girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, it is too inappropriate!

"When the protector heard that his mother was sick, he came to visit him and had something to discuss with our husband and wife. Lu Shizi has a heart, and he wants to say hello to his mother, Yu'er is out of the house, Xiaoxi, you will take Lu Shizi to your grandmother. Le Shaoyuan was impatient to play Tai Chi with the Protector again, and said to the mother and daughter.

This kind of reason for coming to the door is really impossible to refuse, Le Yu is still not there, and he can't complain that his father will call him.

Le Xi thought slightly, agreed, and saluted the Protector of the Country, and said to Lu Yu with some reluctance: "The Protector of the Prince, please..."

Lu Yu's eyes flashed, nodded lightly, and said something hard. He bowed to the husband and wife again, and walked out of the front hall with Lexi... (To be continued.) )
