Chapter 18: Teaching Etiquette
"If the husband guessed correctly, it should be the old lady who has returned."
Lin Xuanqing put away the folding fan in his hand, his thin lips pursed lightly, and he spit out a few words in a low voice, vaguely worried in his words.
As far as he knows, this old lady has some means, the family has been an official for generations, and after marrying the old lady Mu, she is in charge of housework inside and out, and she has contributed a lot to the Mu family's current family background.
It's just that he is very strong, and he doesn't like the two-room wives and concubines that his son marries, needless to say, the Li family has never courted in front of the old lady, but even Mu Yunge's gentle biological mother, the old lady doesn't bother to take a look at it on weekdays.
The so-called hated house and Wu, Mu Yunge and Mu Yunxue of the granddaughters, and the old lady are not very close.
But since the death of Old Man Mu, the old lady no longer takes care of the house, and goes to the temple to eat the Buddha.
"Don't worry, lady, now that you have a husband as a companion, you are no longer alone."
Lin Xuanqing stood beside Mu Yunge and comforted gently.
"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about me, my grandmother is so old, is it possible that she will still eat people?"
Mu Yunge rummaged through the memories in his mind, knowing that Lin Xuanqing was worried about himself, and there were ripples in his heart, but his face was light and light.
The original Mu Yunge was timid and afraid, but she was different, a strong woman who had dominated the mall for many years, even if she was caught in the intricate battle of the house, she would not be afraid at all.
And no matter how strong Mrs. Mu is, she has reached the age of Huajia, and there is always a way to impress.
"You go back to your room and rest, I need to look at the ledger again."
After a pause, Mu Yunge suddenly turned around and said to Lin Xuanqing, after speaking, without waiting for him to respond, he went out with his skirt.
"This girl, like before, likes to take care of everything herself."
Lin Xuanqing looked at the fluttering back in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he raised his feet and went out, and quietly followed behind Mu Yunge.
Mu Yunge slipped to the small warehouse, moved a chair and sat down, and after a few pages of the ledger, he was annoyed by the long string of numbers on it.
"What does this mean? Why can't I read it? The ancients kept accounts really wonderful! ”
She frowned and muttered, feeling like her head was a mess.
"What doesn't the lady understand? Maybe you can give me some pointers! ”
As soon as Lin Xuanqi entered the door, he saw Mu Yunge sitting there, a pair of willow eyebrows frowning tightly, and his mouth was still grunting, as if he was very puzzled, so he hurriedly walked over and said with a courteous face.
"Do you understand? I'd better go to Mr. Bookkeeper, it's safer. ”
Mu Yunge raised his head and looked at Lin Xuanqing, who jumped out of nowhere, his frowning brows still did not relax, obviously not believing Lin Xuanqing.
Although he has never said his family background, he can also see a few points from his demeanor, he is definitely not an ordinary person, there are naturally people in the family to take care of him, and he doesn't need to worry about that idleness, he is estimated to be worse than himself.
Mu Yunge thought like this, got up and went to the account room.
"Lady, wait, how do you know if you don't try?"
Lin Xuanqing guessed his thoughts, and quickly chased after her and grabbed her sleeve.
"Do you really understand? Didn't bluff me? ”
Mu Yunge paused and turned back, still a little disbelieving.
"Just take a look at it."
Lin Xuanqing was not annoyed by being questioned several times, reached out and snatched the account book from Mu Yun Singer, and pulled a chair to sit down at random.
Mu Yunge walked over in disbelief, but saw Lin Xuanqing frowning, with a serious face, and picked up a pen from time to time to sketch on it, which looked very professional.
"You're really inconspicuous!"
Mu Yunge stared at the side, a smile crossed the corner of his lips, and he felt that he really underestimated him.
This Mu Yunxue wore a mask on her face all day long, and the symptoms of allergies were reduced a lot, looking at the increasingly swollen face in the mirror, she couldn't help but feel proud again.
"Come over and see if my face is much better!"
When Mu Yunxue saw the Li family, she immediately greeted her, touching her face, her face was full of suddenness, as if she was a fairy.
"It's good to be better, and it can be regarded as a mother's hard work that has not been in vain."
Li was absent-minded, and said a few perfunctory sentences, his brows furrowed tightly.
Over the years since marrying into the Mu family, she knows the temper of Mrs. Mu very well, and she also knows that not only is she unpleasant in front of her, but even Mu Yunxue has suffered a lot of eyes from her.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? My face is good, aren't you happy? ”
Mu Yunxue was still proud that her face had improved, so she ran over and grabbed Li's arm, and brought her face closer.
"Don't make a noise here, my mother has something to think about, you go back to the room first."
Li Shi brushed away Mu Yunxue, who was like a flower butterfly, with a frown, and his face was full of anger.
Mu Yunxue immediately pursed her mouth, but she didn't dare to play any tricks, turned her head and went back to the room sullenly.
She sighed, but she still didn't dare to tell Mu Yunxue about the old lady's going back to the house, that girl didn't have a door, maybe she would leak her mouth as soon as she went out.
If the news really leaked out, Mu Yunge listened to it, and prepared early to please the old lady, it would not be good for them.
"Yunxue, this girl is like a wild child, she doesn't understand any rules, and the dead old woman is very strict, if she touches her moldy head, won't even me have to suffer?"
Li Shi looked at his henchman Chunniang, his face was full of melancholy, and he didn't even feel good at drinking tea.
"Don't worry, madam, I heard that there are grandmothers who specialize in teaching etiquette now, let's go and invite one to come back and teach the young lady."
Chun Niang looked flattering and enthusiastically offered advice.
"Then why don't you hurry up and ask one to come back!"
Li immediately smiled, slapped the table, and made a decision.
Chunniang naturally didn't dare to slack off, and after listening to the order, she hurriedly went to the street to find someone......
Mu Yunge and Lin Xuanqing hid in the attic of the small warehouse, carefully studying every account, after all, the Li family has done a lot of work and feet over the years, and it is quite difficult to check.
"Thank you! It's a mess, and if no one helps, I won't be able to sort it out even for ten days or eight days. ”
Mu Yunge raised his hand and rubbed his sore neck, turned his head to look at Lin Xuanqing on the side, the smile on his face was very sincere.
"It was originally the duty of the husband to help the lady, what are you doing so politely?"
Lin Xuanqing didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and a wicked smile hooked up at the corner of his mouth, deliberately teasing Mu Yunge.
"You, what are you talking about?"
I don't know if the small attic is too stuffy, Mu Yunge actually felt a little hot on his face, and hurriedly interrupted Lin Xuanyu.
"Didn't the lady hear clearly? Why do you have to ask your husband again? ”
Lin Xuanqian raised his eyebrows slightly, and the smile on his face grew.
