Su Xin's eyes widened, a little happy, looking at Jiang Qianqian's unwavering eyes, she knew that she must have her own idea: "Then what is the eldest lady going to do?" ”

Su Xin is very proud, her eldest lady is so capable, no matter how difficult the troubles are, they can solve them.

Jiang Qianqian let go of Su Xin's hand, got up and put her robe on her body: "We have to go back to Jiangfu first." "They don't necessarily come back before the evening, and it's always a little chilly at night.

"Jiangfu?" Su Xin began to be a little confused again, it stands to reason that Jiang Qianqian would not be bad if she was homesick at this time, not to mention that she didn't say that she would prepare for the New Year?

Looking at Su Xin's ignorant look, Jiang Qianqian patiently explained: "Although we don't understand this, we can go back and find someone to help!" Our housekeeper of Jiang Mansion has been taking care of the affairs of the mansion for so long, so he must have a lot of experience, so it is better to ask him for advice while taking advantage of this effort. ”

After hearing this, Su Xin finally understood the meaning, and went out and said, "Then I'll go and tell the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion so that they can leave a door for us at night." ”

Jiang House.

Since the Jiang sisters moved to the Prime Minister's Mansion, there has been little excitement here, and most of the people who have been retained are people who are unwilling to leave, and the Jiang family's housekeeper is also one of them.

Fortunately, Jiang Qianqian kept Jiang's shop in good order, and the gold and silver collected to maintain the expenses of the old mansion were not a problem, which was why they stayed here with peace of mind.

Although they no longer have a master, they have long been accustomed to taking care of the flowers and plants in the house every day, and cleaning the house and courtyard. Therefore, when Jiang Qianqian pushed away the boudoir that she hadn't entered for a long time, it was also spotless.

Before Jiang Qianqian could look for it, the housekeeper chased after her. The old man is old, his temples are gray, but his eyes are not cloudy, and he even has a shrewdness.

He was naturally happy to see Jiang Qianqian, no matter how he said it, he had been treated as his daughter since he was a child, but now he is a lot happier to reunite: "The eldest lady is back, just now I am taking care of things in the house, so the eldest lady has to wait a little longer." ”

"You don't have to be formal."

The housekeeper looked around and didn't see Jiang Bangwan, and asked, "The eldest lady went back to the old mansion today, didn't she come back with the second lady?" ”

Jiang Qianqian shook her head and explained: "A few days ago, the Prime Minister's wife told me to do the New Year's Affair of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I don't know much about this, so I want to come back to you to learn from you. ”

"Oh? Indeed, it's time for the eldest lady to learn to manage the house. ”

The housekeeper took Jiang Qianqian and Su Xin to his residence, which was neatly arranged and mixed with many books and accounts. He walked to the bookcase, took out a thick book from it, and handed it to Jiang Qianqian.

Jiang Qianqian took it from his hand, a little puzzled: "This is?" ”

"This is a new thing that has been added to the Jiang Mansion for the New Year, the total expenses and miscellaneous expenses, etc., and the relevant arrangements are also mentioned, if the eldest lady does it according to this, it must not be bad."

Jiang Qianqian shook the heavy book in her hand, and looked at the housekeeper with some surprise: "Why are there so many?" Do you want me to finish reading it all these days? ”

The housekeeper smiled when he heard this, and said, "I don't have to, the eldest lady can rest assured." As scary as it may seem, this booklet also records a few miscellaneous things. Before dusk, with the intelligence of the eldest lady, there must be no problem after reading it. ”

This made Jiang Qianqian breathe a sigh of relief, thanked the housekeeper and returned to the house.

(b)

Jiang Qianqian went to the room and sat down, the whole booklet lay quietly on the side, her slender fingers turned a page, the paper had yellowed, but she could still see the content on it. After turning a few pages in a row, the handwriting on it is also different.

Jiang Qianqian thought to herself that these were not her father's handwriting, if he was still here, the Jiang family would not have fallen to this.

An hour later, Su Xin walked in with chicken soup porridge. Seeing that Jiang Qianqian was still looking at the account book, she put down the bowl and turned around to open the window. The white light instantly penetrated into the room, but it illuminated the inside a little.

"If the eldest lady is tired, just rest first." She put the porridge next to Jiang Qianqian, Rao was pressed for time, and Jiang Qianqian couldn't hold back the tempting fragrance and put the account book aside.

She was a little worried, afraid that she would not be able to do it.

"It seems that you can't go back tonight, Su Xin, you will send someone back to report the news to the Prime Minister's Mansion later, and we will stay in Jiangfu tonight."

Su Xin nodded obediently, and when Jiang Qianqian finished eating, she put away the dishes and chopsticks, and then found someone to report the news.

Jiang Qianqian continued to look at the account book, and when she saw something she couldn't understand, she decided to go to the housekeeper to ask in person. There are several places that she can't figure out, and she can only wait for the housekeeper to explain them to her one by one.

When Jiang Qianqian appeared in front of her again, the housekeeper was surprised at first, and then said after hearing her statement: "Miss, these can only be provided for your reference, but the specifications of the Prime Minister's Mansion are larger." After all, our Jiang Mansion used to be more economical than ordinary mansions. ”

"Besides, rewarding people and giving them a red envelope is also part of managing things in the house."

"In this world, only people's hearts are the most difficult to buy, and these absolute values are only reflected in your subtleties, so, Miss, there are still a lot of things you have to learn."

The Prime Minister's wife heard that Jiang Qianqian had been in the Jiang Mansion for the past few days, and she also had a small abacus in her heart, although she handed over the New Year affairs in the mansion to her, but on these days when she didn't see the beginning and the end of the day, she didn't have this opportunity to give guidance.

Fortunately, as soon as she had this idea, a maid sent news that Jiang Qianqian had returned home.

Jiang Qianqian only bought a few bags of firecrackers, fireworks and calligraphy when she came back this time, and she really looked a little atmospheric. The Prime Minister's wife nodded secretly, but if that's all there is to it......

She snorted coldly, afraid that it was far from enough.

The master and servant over there bought fireworks not just to add to the atmosphere, but when they were leaving, they heard the housekeeper say that Jiang Bangwan liked fireworks very much.

"The second lady's child is very fond of fireworks, and when I took care of her before, I clamored to buy them every year. Now that you two sisters have gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion, please don't forget it. ”

Jiang Qianqian recalled the appearance of the housekeeper just now, and her heart was a little sour. Sure enough, there are some things that can't be parted with, such as years of affection.

The next chores were handed over to the servants in the house, and she had to pass the prime minister's wife first: "I have been back to the Jiang family these days, and I have gradually had some ideas in my heart, and I will wait for me to write down the things that need to be added on paper, and then you will look at it, what do you think?" ”。

The prime minister's wife originally planned to mention her on the side, but when she heard Jiang Qianqian say this, she didn't have any dissatisfaction, and she could only see the result in the end.
