The grandmother brought by the two princesses in the main hall has been quickly dialing the abacus beads by one person for a while, and the other person has been very careful and careful to look at the huge book in his hand, page by page, line by line, one by one, checking the account books handed over by the stewards of each courtyard.

These two old grandmothers think that they are the most trusted grandmothers around the eldest princess, and the abacus of the two of them also has the account itself, not to mention others, Min'er on the side watched the whole process, kept her mouth open, and was probably stunned.

After a while, the grandmother who was reading the account book raised her head, made eye contact with the mother who was going to make eye contact, and made eye contact with each other, and then the old lady holding the account book with the symbol mark walked in front of the eldest princess and Qin Yao.

The old lady first handed the account book in her hand to Gu Ya, then bent down and saluted and then replied: "Back to the words of the eldest princess, the old slaves have already found out the expenses of each courtyard in the palace of the eldest prince this month, and checked it together with the general ledger. ”

"Let it go, the two grandmothers have worked hard, Gu Ya, let people take the grandmothers to the back hall to rest and drink tea." The eldest princess commanded.

As soon as Gu Ya raised her hand, a little girl with a sharp movement stepped forward a few steps, bowed slightly to the two grandmothers, and then took the two grandmothers to the back hall.

Qin Yao looked at this set of smooth actions on the side, muttering in his heart, this book of accounts must have hundreds of pages to say the least, plus it has to be the same as the account books brought by the stewards in various courtyards, even if there is an abacus, it is not said so fast.

Qin Yao insisted that if she had any questions, she would ask them out loud, and leaned over to the eldest princess and asked in a whisper: "Sister-in-law, as far as the skills of these two grandmothers are concerned, if I let them follow along, how long will it take to learn first?" ”

The eldest princess Jiahui looked back at Qin Yao, thought for herself, and then said: "These two old grandmothers have been in the mansion for many years and plan to look at the account books, since I can remember, these two grandmothers were about the same age as Min'er at that time, and at that time, these two grandmothers followed my grandmother to take care of the housekeeping. Do the math yourself, how many years has it been? ”

Qin Yao was okay when she heard this, and Min'er, who was standing behind Qin Yao and was originally full of ambition to study hard and strive to become a talent as soon as possible, showed a surprised look on her face.

"This calculation, good guys, these two old grandmothers have to play for more than 20 years and read the account books for more than 20 years to practice such a good skill. In this case, if Min'er wants to learn some fur at her age, it will not be possible without three or five years. Qin Yao spoke her heart for Min'er.

Min'er kept nodding on the side.

"Actually, it's not difficult, these things are expensive in one word, cooked, the so-called practice makes perfect is this meaning. In this way, you first want Min'er to follow the two grandmothers to watch it first in the past few days, many things are to watch first, watch the doorway, and if you don't understand it, you have to watch it lively. "The eldest princess knows that Min'er must not be able to learn it all at once, and she must encourage novices.

A little maid who had just come in to reply came into the house and said: "Back to the eldest princess, Dr. Xu is back, waiting on the porch, saying that he wants to ask the second princess for a pulse, and at the gate, there is a small servant in the house of the six ladies of the family, I heard that the second princess is here with us, and I came to say hello." ”

There is nothing special about Xu Rong coming back to ask for a pulse, but what is going on in Wanfu? Qin Yao couldn't react for a while.

The eldest princess didn't understand why a Wanfu suddenly appeared, and she couldn't get back to her senses for a while, but Gu Ya had a good memory, recalled it a little, and then asked: "Dare to ask the second princess, but the sixth lady of the Wan family you mentioned before, you also said that there will be some garden party or something in the future, and you want to take our eldest princess to go with you." ”

"Yes, yes, that's right, it's the Sixth Lady." Qin Yao also pretended to be suddenly enlightened, in fact, Qin Yao wondered in her heart how the sixth lady could get the news and know that she was here with the eldest princess, either her ears were strong, or Ye Qinghong told others.

When the eldest princess heard that it was the sixth lady of Wanfu who Ye Qinghong had arranged for Linglong, she was also interested, "Call people to the front yard to wait, all the guests who come are guests, not to mention that they are here to greet the second princess, and they don't have to let the family stand outside." After speaking, let the people in the main hall wait first, take Qin Yao's hand and go to the living room in the front yard to see the situation.

When the eldest princess and Qin Yao arrived in the living room in the front yard, Xu Rong was holding his small medicine box and a very energetic servant, and the two of them were waiting in the living room together.

"Why is Doctor Xu waiting here, you want to ask the second princess for a pulse, I forgot, you should have opened a prescription earlier and we will come again." The eldest princess saw Xu Rong and remembered that she still had serious things to do.

"It's okay, I can wait, actually," Xu Rong hesitated for a moment and said, "Can you get something to eat first, the eldest prince didn't let the little one have a chance to eat when he went out early in the morning, and he was a little hungry now." ”

The eldest princess laughed in her heart, the eldest prince always didn't eat breakfast in the morning, saying that he wanted to stay sober, and he got up early in the morning to practice martial arts and swords, and it was estimated that he would take Xu Rong directly to the gate of the eldest prince's mansion and go directly to the barracks.

The eldest princess arranged for the little maid to take Xu Rong to the kitchen to eat. Xu Rong left, and the eldest princess Jiahui was curious about what gifts these six ladies were coming to give Qin Yao and say goodbye.

Here, because Qin Yao felt that this was the Great Prince's Mansion, and she couldn't put on the second princess's shelf too much, she had been sitting quietly a little further back than the eldest princess Jiahui. The little maid sent by the sixth lady of the Wanfu was also very stable, seeing that no one asked him for a while, he stood aside with his head bowed in a proper manner, holding two boxes of different sizes in his hands.

"Which house is from, and who wants you to say hello in reply?" The eldest princess glanced at Gu Ya, Gu Ya understood, and asked directly about the little girl.

"Back to the master's words, the slave is in the garden of the sixth lady of Wanfu, the sixth lady and the second princess have always been friends, since I went to the second prince's mansion to invite the second princess to enjoy the flowers together, the people in the house said that the second princess came to the eldest prince's mansion to live for a few days, our sixth lady has always admired the eldest princess in her heart, and discussed it with our lord, so that the slave came to the house to disturb."

As he spoke, the little guy held the gift in one hand and took out a letter from his bosom with the other.

The little maid behind Gu Ya stepped forward to take it, and sure enough, it was an invitation, the eldest princess glanced at her eyes lightly, and the little maid hurriedly handed the letter to Qin Yao.

Qin Yao took it over and took a look, and the plain envelope had three words written in gold-sprinkled ink, and when it was opened, it was a small rouge-colored bookmark-style item.
