50 Burning the ledger under the guise of a fire
Do you want to give instructions to the steward? Yi Li's eyes are straight, where can he indicate!
Rong Bo asked Lin Daike what he had to say.
Lin Dai looked like he was reminded by her: "Oh, there really is!" ”
Rong Bo was stunned, and Fang asked, "What is it?" ”
Lin Dai took out a small hand-made boufer from his sleeve. This is the needlework she and Mama Qiu and others have been doing recently. Local customs, red and white ceremonies, can be made such a cloth Buddha gift, to keep each other safe.
Lin Dai took the Bu Fu'er and said: "The chief steward has been diligent for many years, the first lady and the first master's subordinates, he has served, and now he has sent it to the account book, and it is the first time for our sisters and brothers to look side by side, thinking that it is so embarrassing!" There should always be a little bit of representation. As a junior, I'm embarrassed to say anything, but I happened to pray for the deceased and made a few Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, so I divided one into a big steward. ”
Rong Bo looked at the cloth Bodhisattva, and also inlaid with pearls and jade, saying that it was a homemade handicraft, but it was actually a valuable thing, and when it was given out, most of it also had the intention of buying people's hearts. Rong Bo was annoyed that Lin Dai grabbed people's hearts, and said it so well, she had no reason to stop her, so she had to let Nabu Bodhisattva send it out.
The servant at the back suddenly looked frightened and reported that the old account book could not be found!
It turns out that after the new account book is brought in, it must be checked with the old account book, which is also a common practice. Those old account books, no one usually remembers. When the new account book was flipped, Rong Bo asked someone to pick up the old account book. Who knew the old ledger would be gone?
Lin Dai hurriedly said: "Alas! But the fire burned? ”
Rong Bo denied: "The account books are not stored in the book building. ”
"But ......," Lin Dai glanced at Rongbo.
Rong Bo knew what Lin Dai meant: the fire was set by themselves. For fear of burning useful things, I removed a lot of valuable books before burning. He also took some other things and burned them to the fire. Time was of the essence, was it ...... Rong Bo was in a hurry and burned the wrong thing?
Rong Bo's face changed drastically.
After Zhang Shenxian received the report, his face also changed.
Yun Jian, who "sat up" Liwen Shu, also put down the book.
Zhang Shenxian hurriedly said: "Son, I'll go and check!" ”
He knows very well that the huge property left by the deceased can't be kept right and left with an aunt and grandmother, a cowardly jade child, a puppet doll young master, and a few maiden mothers-in-law, so why not make good use of it? God bestows floating wealth, but they always have to have an account book before they can be caught off guard!
They didn't get the account book in the house before, thinking that Rong Bo was hiding, and it was inconvenient to ask Rong Bo to extract a confession, so they had to wait for the old and new account books to be compared at this moment, and they had the opportunity to get both together. Who knew that Rong Bo couldn't find the old account book himself!
Zhang Shenxian hurriedly went to deal with this sudden matter - it was said that he was looking for the account book, but in fact, since it could be lost, it would be difficult to find it back.
The corpse was easy to find.
Lin Dai said: "Didn't you burn it?" Rong Bo hurriedly blocked the conversation, and someone else listened to it in his ears and reported to Zhang Shenxian. Zhang Shenxian got through at one point, and hurriedly asked where were the embers of the fire in the library at that time?
Everyone has been busy these days, and the library has not been cleaned up much, and the half-burnt books in it are still piled up, but when I found it, there was no account book in it.
The ashes that were burned down were said by Lin Dai, and they were reluctant to be discarded and placed in the yard to make them "more protective of flowers". After a few days, it did not rot, and when I opened it, I could clearly see the ashes, as well as some very fine, unburned paper corners in the ashes.
Yo, there's a book!
The so-called "account book" is completely useless, just a few pieces of paper scrap, the big one is no bigger than a fingernail, and the small one is like a star dust, barely relying on the little handwriting left on the top, you can see that it is an account book.
Zhang Shenxian thought: What an aunt! Pretended to be a fire, but accidentally burned the ledger! Lack of success, more than failure. Annoying, annoying!
He thought that what he had guessed was the truth.
Cloud Sword Huer called Zhang Immortal back.
He remembered something and was waiting to verify it himself. And Lin Dai had already finished turning over the account books, and actually led Yi Li to Yunjian to ask for advice. Yun Jian excused himself: "You haven't found the account book yet, so it's important to go find it." ”
Lin Dai tilted his head slightly and said, "We can't find it, what's the mess if you don't add it?" ”
This is also true. A weak girl, a young child, has never taken care of the accounts, what can you find if you go to find it? Lin Dai continued the previous words and persuaded Yi Li, even if he was not interested in the accounts, he should learn from the big brother and read more books, the benefits of the books were great, and she asked Yun Jian to talk to Yi Li.
Yun Jian couldn't get out, and privately asked someone to call Zhang Shenxian back.
Zhang Shenxian came, lowered his hands and obeyed the order, Yun Jian glanced at him, and ordered a hidden word.
When Zhang Shenxian heard this, he also scolded himself: Confused! Why didn't you think of it?
He has always been suspicious that Aunt Ying is making trouble behind her back. Now that the girl is giving a gift to Steward Cui, how can she not be guarded against?
Zhang Shenxian arranged to find out if there was any problem with the cloth Bodhisattva received by Steward Cui.
The result was no problem. Besides, Lin Dai finished flipping through the account book at that time, so he directly took out the cloth Bodhisattva and asked people to give it to the chief steward, among which she did not pick up a pen to write, it seems that it is impossible to find any problems when turning over the account book and ventilate the chief steward.
After Zhang Shenxian reported back to Yun Jian, Yun Jian nodded: "I'm going to ask the girl to return to Jincheng together!" ”
After receiving the letter, Mrs. Xie, who was enjoying her old age in Jincheng, five hundred miles away, sighed and said, "It's also pitiful." ”
The second wife exclaimed: "The old lady is benevolent! That kid, did you see it seven or eight years ago? Skinny, like a kitten, I don't know what to do now. Without the care of elders, how can she get by? I heard over there that there is an aunt, and it is unreliable, if something really happens, we are always relatives, how can we bear it! ”
The eldest lady tugged at the corners of her mouth. Now the wealth of the family is still in the hands of the old lady. The old lady is old and has little energy, so she is really the two girls around the old lady, Jasper and Mingzhu, who help the old lady sort out the accounts. However, the great Xie Mansion, generations of scholars, children and grandchildren are prosperous, and the financial handle will let the two girls do it on their behalf, how can it be like words? The old lady herself understands, so she has already revealed her intention a few years ago to give the authority to be in charge of the house to her daughter-in-law.
There are two daughters-in-law, who is it for? According to the old lady's heart, she naturally prefers a big house. In the big room, Yun Jian has been talented since childhood, and the third girl Yun Shi was selected into the palace again, and there are too many scenery competitions in the second room!
How could the old lady not make up her mind at that time, wait for another two years, the situation has changed, Yun Jian has always been a nobleman, she has not been pregnant, I heard that the saint has also faded, it seems that the chance to climb up in the future is not great, but the expenses have always been helped by the mother's family, and it has become an extremely embarrassing waste chess. And Yunshu was honest and steady, but in one fell swoop, he was hit by the jinshi and released the official. At this time, if the old lady said that she would hand over the authority of the house to the big house, it would not be appropriate.
