Qu Miaoling's series of words were deafening, and Qu Chensi was sluggish.

"Second brother, I have no ill will towards your mother from beginning to end, all I do is to fight back." After Qu Miaoling finished speaking, he walked away, and without giving Qu Chensi any chance to react, he turned around and left.

Qu Chen was stunned in place, not moving for a long time.

What did she mean just now that it had always been his mother who was amorous?

It wasn't until today that Qu Chensi thought clearly, it turned out that he had never really seen Qu Miaoling, his eldest sister.

In fact, what has been done well enough, and what has not been done well is only himself, as well as the people of the Hou Mansion.

Qu Chensi returned to his yard in a trance, and the frequency of blinking his eyes was extremely low.

Qu Miaoling originally heard that Qu Chensi was back, and she was still a little surprised in her heart, but after what happened just now, her heart calmed down.

It's not all the way in the end.

Qu Miaoling sighed.

Then he returned to Wanzhen Temple.

"Miss, Cao Ye is here." Gentle walking.

Qu Miaoling thought about it for a while, and then understood Cao Ye's intention.

It's been a long time since Zhuangzi has been here, and I don't know what's going on.

When Liu Gang came last time, she was sent away at will, and she didn't even say a few words, some time ago, her mind was on dealing with Situ Huaibo and worrying about Situ Huaiju.

Now, knowing that the army was about to return victorious, she was relieved that it was time to deal with these matters.

"You let him in."

"Yes."

Cao Ye was gently brought in, and as soon as he entered the door, he gave him the stack of ledgers in his hand.

"Miss, this is the account book on the Zhuangzi in Ganzhou, all the accounts collected, the grain handed over by the tenant farmers, and the funds for the grain to be sold and returned, are all on it."

Cao Ye said attackingly, Qu Miaoling opened the first ledger, and saw the neat and tidy data, all the data was sorted out, it was very clear, which day, the incoming accounts, the outgoing accounts, the money earned, line by row, Qu Miaoling looked not only comfortable in his eyes, but also comfortable in his heart.

"Miss, the top ledger is organized, and the bottom three are scattered."

Qu Miaoling closed the ledger at the top, raised her eyes and said, "This is what you organized?" ”

"Yes."

"Not bad."

Qu Miaoling praised it.

"Have you sorted out all the money that Zhuangzi has lost in the past few years?"

Qu Miaoling suddenly asked.

Cao Ye was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Miss Hui's words, I have sorted it out, and it is at the bottom." ”

The last time he came, Qu Miaoling was very generous and handed over everything on the Zhuangzi to them.

He thought that Qu Miaoling didn't care about what happened before.

But Qu Miaoling's performance shocked him, so he had to hurry back.

"Tell me first."

"Returning to the eldest lady, Zhuangzi has collected a total of ten thousand stones of grain in the past ten years, but less than ten percent can be handed over, and in the original steward's house, the slave has not found the money he collected."

"So, what do you think?"

"The minions don't dare to say it."

"Miss Ben forgives you for your innocence, and you can speak freely."

Cao Ye hesitated for a moment, but still said, "The slave guesses." Perhaps he had already transferred the money. ”

Qu Miaoling nodded, although Cao Ye still didn't say it explicitly, but who is this large amount of money, she also has a score in her heart.

"Well done." Qu Miaoling praised.

"It is worthy of being a reader, I remember the accounts well, and this handwriting is also quite stylish."

Cao Ye lowered his head and pursed his lips.

The young lady's compliment left him a little confused.

"Cao Ye, you did a good job, you should have the reward that Liu Gang brought you last time, but you received it?"

"Steward Liu is a generous person, and he divided all the reward money."

Unconsciously and unconsciously, Cao Ye also gave Liu Gang a wave of favorability.

"Liu Gang is a good one, but you are also good."

Qu Miaoling tilted his head, "Gentle, you go and get some reward money, give it to Cao Ye, and you will be rewarded for doing well." ”

Cao Ye hurriedly knelt down, "The slave doesn't dare to take credit." ”

"What is given to you, you will take."

Qu Miaoling couldn't say anything.

Cao Ye lowered his head, looked at the heavy purse that was gently handed over in his hand, his eyes blinked twice, and he felt a little restless in his heart.

Maybe he could mention that.

"Miss, the minion has a reluctant request."

"You say."

"The slave's sister, can you follow the slave back to Ganzhou, the slave promises that she will definitely take the tenant farmers in Ganzhou to work hard." As he spoke, Cao Ye's voice became excited.

Qu Miaoling's face changed.

"Cao Ye, do you think your sister is not doing well in the mansion? Or will Miss Ben abuse her? ”

Cao Ye shook his head frantically, "No, miss, the slave has been separated from the family for too long, and the slave just wants a home." ”

Cao Ye was about to cry, but Qu Miaoling's expression was still cold.

Cao Ye looked at Qu Miaoling and understood what she meant.

But he still wanted to work harder, "Sister She's not going to do anything, it will only delay Miss's big event." ”

Qu Miaoling hooked her lips and smiled, "Big deal? I'm a boudoir lady, what big deal can I do? ”

Qu Miaoling's rhetorical question left Cao Ye speechless.

"Cao Ye, today Miss Ben will tell you that I have never raised useless minions around me, even if Cao Yue is useless, I will only expel her, let alone allow her to delay you."

Qu Miaoling's voice was stern.

Cao Ye was shocked and walked a few steps on his knees, "The slave begs Miss, don't bully your sister, Cao Ye is willing to take the lead for you." ”

In the past, Qu Miaoling showed a kind face, but he forgot that how could a woman who could be feared in the circle of nobles in the capital be a good stubble?

He shouldn't have said it just now, would Miss think that he was pampered and pampered?

Cao Ye was flustered in his heart.

"Miss, it's the slave who has overstepped the rules, and it's all the slave's fault."

Cao Ye kowtowed to Qu Miaoling, very solemnly, and made a crisp sound.

His sincerity, Qu Miaoling naturally saw it, the coldness on her face eased a little, she valued Cao Ye, but this did not mean that Cao Ye could boldly negotiate conditions with herself.

What she wants to teach Cao Ye now is to recognize her own identity.

Looking at the moment when Cao Ye knelt down, Qu Miaoling knew that he understood.

After all, he is the person he wants to reuse in the future, and Qu Miaoling is still tolerant of him.

"Get up, Cao Ye, you're just a minion, understand?"

Cao Ye nodded.

It's time for him to recognize his identity, he is not the son of an official family, and now he is just a slave who guards Zhuangzi.

Cao Ye, remember your identity.

Seeing that Cao Ye's waist was bent down, as if he had received a major blow, Qu Miaoling also accepted it when he saw it.

"Cao Ye, don't worry, your sister, I won't treat you harshly."

"Miss, the slave has nothing to wish for, I just hope that my sister will live well, and if possible, I still hope that my sister can stop doing heavy work in the countryside."

This is Cao Ye's last hope.

"Don't worry, I will let people take care of her, and I will never let her do any heavy work, I will immediately transfer her to my side, and the next time you come, you will definitely be able to see your sister."

After Cao Ye listened, a glint flashed in his eyes.

"Miss's great kindness, Cao Ye dare not forget, in the future, he will be a horse leather shroud, and he will swear to serve to the death."

"As long as you are loyal to me, your sister will naturally stay in the Hou Mansion safe and sound."

Cao Ye kowtowed heavily, he only has his sister Cao Yue as a relative now, he must protect her well, and now while Miss still values him, he must work hard and strive to be recognized by Miss as soon as possible.

Cao Ye's heart was much firmer, and the arrogance of being a child of an official family in the past should be let go.

Now he is not worthy.

"It's good that you understand, Cao Ye, do a good job, the benefits can't be lost to you."

"Minions remember." Now even calling himself a minion, Cao Ye has become a lot more proficient, and he is no longer ashamed to speak up.

Qu Miaoling also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she was so strict with him, how could it not be an encouragement.

Fortunately, Cao Ye understood in the end.

"Cao Ye, Zhuangzi over there in Ganzhou, you still need to be more dedicated."

"The slave understands, please rest assured, as long as the slave is in one day, the Zhuangzi in Ganzhou will be safe and sound."

Qu Miaoling smiled, "I naturally believe in you, but I hope you can pick up a bigger burden." ”

Pushing the ledger in his hand aside, at Qu Miaoling's signal, he brought a thick stack of lists, Cao Ye glanced at it, and immediately said in surprise: "Miss! ”

"You read that right, I want to hand over these Zhuangzi to you to manage, can you take it?"

A touch of shock flashed, and Cao Ye immediately said excitedly: "The slave can afford it, and the slave will not live up to the trust of the young lady." ”

Qu Miaoling nodded and chuckled, "I hope you remember what you said today." ”

Cao Ye's reply was to arch his hand, which was his last bit of respect as a scholar who was relegated to slavery.

Qu Miaoling smiled again, even happier than seeing Cao Ye kowtow to herself.

"In the future, you will be in charge of the Zhuangzi everywhere, do what you have to do, go if you want to buy, don't be ruthless if you want to sell, you can do it, with my support, nothing will happen."

Qu Miaoling said truthfully, giving Cao Ye enough confidence.

"Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely do things seriously, and it will also make you more money."

This is very simple, and it can even be called crude, but what do you want Zhuangzi to do, isn't it just to make money?

The words are not rough.

"Cao Ye, in the future, I don't need to call myself a minion."

Cao Ye nodded.

Almost with tears in his eyes, when he was under Deng Deyong's hands, the first lesson he taught himself was to change his name, and what Deng Deyong said at that time is still vivid.

"From today on, you are not the young master of any family, you are a slave, a slave who has been trampled underfoot, even if the master's family wants you to drink footwater, you have to pour it into my stomach without changing your face, face? Dignity? For you, none exists. ”

Then they went through the difficult phase of changing their self-profess.

Calling himself "Young Master Ben" or "Master", all of them were beaten miserably and not in human shape, everyone changed their words, only him, a body of injuries, new injuries added to old injuries, whip marks swept over, except for the face, all positions on the body were taken care of, those who were forced to change their names persuaded him to accept his fate, and in the end, he also accepted his fate.

But today, Qu Miaoling asked herself to change her name, Cao Ye is a big man, although he is not strong, he is also a hot-blooded man with a height of eight feet, and tears actually fell down.

However, Qu Miaoling's grace is not limited to this.

"Cao Ye, don't worry, what Miss Ben promised you will never change, of course, the premise is that you also understand."

Qu Miaoling promised?

His eyes lit up with tears, and in the little water, those eyes seemed to be sunny after the rain, and the sun showed a smiling face.

For a while, Qu Miaoling was also immersed in it.

"Miss." Cao Ye almost choked up and said this, this sentence muttered without practical significance, but it weighed as much as a thousand catties.

Cao Ye understands, and Qu Miaoling also understands.

She looked at the man kneeling in front of her, although his knees were bent, his back was indeed straight, and from the beginning to the present, there was not a moment of ricketism.

She also valued this about him.

If it weren't for the fact that he had a unique temperament among those slaves, she wouldn't have wanted him even if she hadn't found a suitable slave.

Qu Miaoling nodded desperately, even if she was as dull as soft, she knew how much her young lady valued this man.

Cao Ye left the courtyard, but Qu Miaoling looked at the clouds in the sky and fell into the memory of the previous life.

Cao Ye was a talent, and the Nahu people were highly used there, and although he later fled, it also laid a solid foundation for him to later become an imperial merchant in a rich and rival country.

Although he also experienced hardships along the way, the result was gratifying, soaring, and the emperor was full of praise for him, and no one seemed to know about those miserable and dark pasts.

While Cao Ye is running his own business, he thinks about revenge.

But at this time, Situ Huaibo, who has always been suspicious, discovered his original identity.

Cao Ye's doom began.
