An Rong glanced back at the main house, and secretly said that he had chosen the wrong day, his grandmother was in a bad mood today, and the account book was definitely not settled today.

An Rong didn't go to Zizhuyuan with him, and took the maid back to Linglong Pavilion.

As soon as she entered the door, Bai Zhi came over with a smile on her face, carrying a pigeon cage in her hand, and said as if offering a treasure, "Girl, look." ”

In the pigeon cage, two identical pigeons, their snow-white feathers are delicate without a trace of flaws, and their eyes are as black as jade on their lovely heads.

"Where's the other pigeon?" Qiu Ju asked curiously.

Bai Zhi grinned, and there were two small dimples at the corners of her mouth, "It flew by itself, right next to the pigeon cage, and it can't be driven away." ”

An Rong was a little surprised, and then looked closely, the pigeon that flew in had a much gentler look, if she guessed correctly, this should be a female.

An Rong looked at the pigeon's legs, which were already scabbed, but still a little fragile.

An Rong thought that the letter on this pigeon was very important.

He took out the small bamboo tube before, explained two sentences on the quilt of the letter, and then tied it to the hen, touched her head and said, "You send the letter back first." ”

He walked to the window and threw the pigeon into the air, and the pigeon fluttered its wings and flew away.

This was just a small episode, An Rong didn't take it to heart, but she didn't expect that half an hour later, the white pigeon came back with a small note.

The note was concise and to the point.

Thanks a lot.

The is a small seven, and the hen is a small nine.

An Rong tapped the heads of the two pigeons with his fingers, "Xiao Qi, Xiao Jiu?" The name is not bad. ”

After speaking, he opened the birdcage, and since he flew back in half an hour, it can be seen that the road is not far, and Xiao Qi has no problem flying back at all, and An Rong will not leave them.

Seeing the two pigeons fly away without looking back, Peony also scolded twice, "It's really a little conscienceless, so I left like this." ”

An Rong smiled and took a sip of tea.

But after a while, I heard a movement coming, Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu stood on the screen, and ran to stand on the small table next to An Rong.

An Rong was happy when he saw it, and instructed Peony to say, "Go to the front yard to find a carpenter to make a small pigeon house, and remember to spread more grass and put it inside." ”

In this way, Xiao Qi and Xiao Jiu have their own rooms in Linglong Pavilion, and they can come and go freely.

The snow melted and it was cold.

An Rong didn't go out again, only embroidered needlework in the house, and no one came to play with her, and the whole Hou Mansion was lazy.

But in Songheyuan, the old lady's face was gloomy at the moment, looking at the account book in her hand, the more she looked at her face, the more she could almost drip water.

Mother Sun was waiting with several account books in her hand, and sighed, "No wonder the four girls have noticed that there is a problem with the shop, this is really ......." ”

She knows that the eldest lady has a good house, but it is the first time she has heard of such a good housekeeper.

"Go get her for me!" The old lady threw the account book on the small table and said coldly.

Agarwood Temple, main house.

The housekeeper's mother, who was in charge of the purchase of flowers in the garden, was replying, the eldest lady was flipping through the account book, and Jasper was waiting behind her, and when she saw someone outside the bead curtain, she hurriedly walked over and greeted her with a smile, "Why is Sister Xia He here?" ”

Xia He is a second-class maid, but Biyu is a big maid next to the eldest lady, this sister Xia He doesn't dare to take it, "The old lady has something to do with the eldest lady." ”

The eldest lady's eyebrows moved, and Biyu stuffed a purse into it, and said with a smile, "This year, the snow has crushed a lot of flowers and trees, and seeing that the sky is clear, I am busy with this matter, I don't know what urgency the old lady has to find the eldest lady, if you are not in a hurry, you might as well let the eldest lady deal with the ...... in advance." ”

Xia He pushed the purse back and said with a smile, "The old lady is angry, there should be something urgent." ”

Not much to say.

The eldest lady's heart sank, remembering the account book that Shen Anyu told her in the morning, her heart was clear, and she told Wang's mother to go into the inner room to freshen up and dress up.

It took a while to go out.

When she entered the door, before she could say goodbye, the old lady asked, "Don't you have a dowry shop?" ”

The eldest lady was suddenly a little at a loss, so she could only pretend to be stupid and nodded, "Daughter-in-law has." ”

The old lady was even more angry, and slammed the teacup in her hand on the small table, "You also have a shop, why don't you take something from your dowry shop to supplement the use of the house?!" ”

The eldest lady panicked and raised her eyes to look at the old lady, "The daughter-in-law doesn't understand what her mother said." ”

The old lady glanced at Mother Sun, and Mother Sun handed over the account book, and the eldest lady looked at it and said with a smile, "What did I say when I was the old lady, it turned out to be this thing, these silks were taken from the fourth girl's shop, and I told the shopkeeper that I would settle them together at the end of the year." ”

The smile is a little unnatural.

Mother Sun frowned, there were still four months of silk and satin accounts last year, so she looked back at the old lady.

An Rong doesn't know the eldest lady, and the old lady still doesn't know what kind of person her daughter-in-law is.

The old lady is not a vegetarian either, fiddling with the Buddha beads and said, "My wife has not been accountable for a few years, and I don't know that the rules of credit in Kyoto have changed now, from three months to one year, no wonder the shop can't be maintained now." ”

The eldest lady smiled and said calmly, "This is all the filial piety of the four girls, isn't it that when I heard me say that the price of silk is getting higher and higher, she said that she would take it from her shop." ”

This is really like what An Rong said, such a pure and kind granddaughter, the old lady doesn't know how to say it, if she hadn't found out early and turned around to get married, would this account have to come back?

"So you took it?" The old lady lifted her eyelids and asked rhetorically, her voice was gentle, but she didn't spare words.

The eldest lady's face was slightly red, and she was a little anxious, why hadn't she called someone yet?

Just as she was in a hurry, she heard a sound of footsteps, and the eldest lady turned her head and saw Peony coming in, and her heart was relieved.

Peony stepped forward with low eyebrows, blessed the old lady with a salute, and then sent two silver tickets to the road, "Old lady, the fourth girl said that she was in a hurry to embroider needlework and thread, so she wouldn't come over in person, Ming'er will come to you again to ask for peace, this is the silver ticket sent by Fang Cai Wang's mother, saying that she bought silk before, the girl said that she didn't know how much, and she was afraid that the eldest lady would feel sorry for her and had no money, so she gave more, and asked Mother Sun to follow the account book, how much should be, she can't take more." ”

The eldest lady was really restless this time, especially the old lady's eyes, which made her feel that there were needles on the chair of pear blossom wood.

The old lady sneered, greedy in front, and in the back, if it weren't for her face as a housewife, she really wanted to smash the tea cup in her hand.

The old lady looked at the peony and said, "Go back and tell the fourth girl, how much should be on the account book, so that she will not feel ashamed to take more." ”

Being poked in the backbone by the old lady like this, the eldest lady's face was panicked, but she was good at cultivating her qi, even if it was hot, her expression was not flustered.

After the peony left, the eldest lady also stood up and said unhurriedly, "It's okay, the daughter-in-law will go back to the yard first, and when Mother Sun settles the account, she will send someone to me to get the silver." ”

The doctor turned around, and his face turned cold.
