54. 54 Learn to read the ledger
"Rest assured, the documents and gold seals have always been kept by the master of the Ningjun Palace, and this is also for the sake of the county prince, so that he should not be too sorry for his wife. Your mother is arrogant and a little ruthless, but she is a little stupid, although she is the daughter of the Chu Palace, but I have always been not very optimistic about her. Chu Shiyin wanted to hand it over to her after passing the door, but that woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp, I am afraid that the Ningjun Mansion will be turned upside down in her hands, this delay is more than ten years, and now it is in your hands. ”
The princess of the old county couldn't help laughing, she patted Hua Qingmo's hand, and said softly: "Mo'er, the Ningjun Mansion will be handed over to you in the future, if you don't understand anything, come and ask me, grandma will help you." ”
"Yes, Mo'er knows."
"Cotton Tree, you go to the account room first, and let the housekeeper bring all the account books of these years."
"Yes, Princess of the Old County."
"Mo'er, learn to watch first, and take over the entire county palace step by step."
"Yes, Mo'er understands."
Leaving from the princess of the old county, Hua Qingmo went back to the north courtyard first, and Kapok went to the account room to get the account book. When she returned, she was followed by two subordinates, who carried a large wooden box, and when they opened it, it was full of ledgers. Looking at so many account books, Hua Qingmo smiled slightly, and then asked Acacia and the others to take out the account books to dry, and go to remove the musty smell first.
And as soon as the musty smell was gone, it was a day, and the next morning, Hua Qingmo woke up and picked up the ledger and started to read. What is recorded in the ledger is the income of the fiefdom shop and other fields in the palace, as well as the expenses of the ladies and ladies in the palace every month, the daily expenses of the palace, and others. The ancient handwriting is large, and there is nothing to remember in a month, Hua Qingmo quickly finished reading a book and found another place to write it down.
After reading the account book for a whole day, Hua Qingmo had already read almost half of it, and when the night fell, she picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat, when the door of the room was pushed open, and Chu Xiangbai walked in with a wooden box and a baggage.
Seeing that it was him, Hua Qingmo smiled slightly and said, "Nine thousand years old, there is something to reward me?" ”
"These are the cherries that the Overseer has given you, and some of the garments that have been made for you. However, the cherries were left for a day, and some were not fresh. Chu Xiangbai put the burden on the table, and then took out the porcelain plate from the wooden box and put it on the table.
Hua Qingmo's gaze circled over the plate of cherries, then smiled, stood up, took out a white porcelain bottle from the room and handed it to Chu Xiangbai.
"Nine thousand years old gave me a lot of things, this is a return gift."
Taking the white porcelain vase, Chu Xiangbai smiled slightly and said, "I know, it will definitely be sent to the overseer, and I will leave." ”
Chu Xiangbai left, Hua Qingmo looked at the cherry without a cherry stem, and could probably figure out why. She couldn't help but smile and took one and put it in her mouth. Although it is a little fresh, the things of Bai Zixiao are all good, and they still taste good now.
She quickly finished the cherries and then asked Acacia to put away her clothes.
The next day, Hua Qingmo looked at the account book for a whole day, and in the evening, Chu Xiangbai sent another plate of cherries without cherry stalks, looking at those cherries, Hua Qingmo really wanted to laugh.
The next day, in the morning.
Hua Qingmo sat in the room and continued to read the account book, and when there was still a moment before noon, Pei'er, the maid next to Princess Ningjun, came to invite Hua Qingmo to dinner in the front hall, and she could guess the approximate reason, most likely because of Prince De.
When they arrived at the front hall, at this time, in addition to the old princess, the princess of the county and her youngest brother Hua Yuqing, as well as the fourth lady Hua Ran Ge, because she was the daughter of the girl who filled the house, so she could not appear in such a scene.
In addition to these three people, the others are here, six daughters, four sons, plus the king of Ningjun, the princess of the county, the side concubine, the third lady, and only Prince De and the little prince Situ Yuanche in the Prince De's mansion.
