Hearing Xing Shuang's humility, Wang was extremely useful in his heart. In addition, Xing Shuang has been treating her softly during this time, and the contradictions between the two concubines have temporarily calmed down. In addition, this New Year's treat is also the face of various provinces, and it is not a matter of carelessness, so the Wang family did not shirk it, and followed them to Qingyuanju to give advice to Xing Shuang.

As soon as he entered the Qing Yuanju and saw this pattern, Wang's heart was only strange. This Qing Yuanju looks like he is in the middle of the family, but in fact it is not very luxurious. The entire Qingyuan residence is divided into three parts, and after entering the hall, there is the courtyard of the upper room, and the place is not large, only half of her place.

There are no flowers planted in the garden, only a big tree is planted in the east, west, north and south by the verandah, and the whole piece in the middle of the yard is covered with a bamboo canopy, and there seem to be some vines climbing on the bamboo canopy at this time, but because it is winter, the leaves are gone, and it looks a little bleak.

Under the bamboo canopy, there are two stone round tables, each surrounded by four stone benches. Along the perimeter of the stone table and bench, there was a pile of grass-like things, which were now withering and could not be seen.

Wang felt strange in his heart, but he followed Xing Shuang to the door of the upper room silently, and then asked aloud: "The verandah at both ends is to go to the east and west wings?" ”

Xing Shuang smiled and nodded: "Exactly, the child is far away, and this mother is not at ease, but the place is small, and it is inconvenient for them to be older." I separated people, like half a yard, but they were all together. ”

"It's strange that you look smaller here, it's separated." Wang nodded, and his tone was not as domineering as before.

Xing Shuang saw that she was finally appeased by her own gentle policy, and she was also a little proud in her heart, so she invited the Wang family into the house, and after taking a seat, she asked someone to bring the guest list.

Wang took the list and looked at it, was stunned for a moment, pointed to the list and asked, "What are you doing with the horizontal and vertical lines drawn on it?" ”

Xing Shuang said: "This is the table I asked people to make, if the names are written together, it will inevitably look dazzling, and it is convenient for me to count the number of people by this table." You see, this column is all ten squares, one row is four squares, and if you write enough tables, it means that there are forty people. ”

Wang praised this time: "This method is excellent, can my sister-in-law teach me this method?" ”

Xing Shuang smiled: "It's not worth anything, it's very simple, but draw some lines horizontally and vertically, I have a better one." ”

Wang hurriedly asked, "What else?" ”

Xing Shuang said to Caiyue: "Go and bring my bookkeeping book." ”

Caiyue answered, went into the inner room and took out the notebook, but it was only a brand new one, not a bookkeeper.

Xing Shuang smiled at her with satisfaction, handed the account book to Wang, and said: "Look, this is the book I use to keep accounts. ”

Wang opened it and saw that it was in the same form as Fangcai, but in this horizontal row, the words "income", "expenditure" and "purpose" were written at the top, and the words "date" were also written in the vertical column.

"I keep a record of the day, every account, in the first box to write the date, and then write the amount, if it is an entry in the income column, in black letters, if it is an expense, in red letters, and then write where it is used, at a glance.

"The bottom column is blank, and it is recorded as a total, and it is one page a day, and the empty ones are not filled in, but they are placed there. In the future, if you want to look through the entry and exit of that day, you just need to find the number of pages on that day from the album, and you will find it as soon as you flip through it. ”

Wang was full of joy for a while, flipped through and looked at it, and asked, "Can you give me this new one?" I used to draw a copy of my sister-in-law's original form. ”

Xing Shuang smiled: "If you like it, take it, but I usually have nothing to do with it, and I'm afraid that you will laugh at me and have nothing to do." ”

Wang Shi hurriedly said: "This is not nothing, if you have this book, no matter how many accounts there are, you will not be able to see the fork." My sister-in-law doesn't know, in the past, whether it was the account book of the family or the exchange of gift lists, I was very angry. It would be very convenient if they were all made like this. ”

Xing Shuang seemed to think of something, and said to Caiyue: "Have you finished copying the tribute of the houses in the head?" ”

Cai Yue blessed a blessing and said: "The transcription is finished, does my wife want to watch it here?" I'm going to get it. ”

When Wang heard this, he laughed and laughed at himself: "My sister-in-law is busy, and I am still a strong man, but I let my sister-in-law laugh." ”

Xing Shuang hurriedly turned around and said to her: "That's not the case, you just said the gift list, I remembered that our year-old New Year's gift hasn't been given out yet, and I want you to come up with an idea." The tributes paid to Zhuangzi this year are excellent, four or five times more than in previous years, and I, a commoner, know this, so I will take them to you to see. ”

In fact, Xing Shuang had already asked Jia's mother about the New Year's ceremony, but at this time, she wanted to be gentle and win over the Wang family, so she just took it out and talked about it again.

Sure enough, when the Wang family heard that Xing Shuang couldn't figure it out and was going to ask her, he immediately became happy. She was also a powerful person at home, and she boasted that her housekeeping skills were no worse than the old lady, because she had received an errand from Xing Shuang before, and she didn't give her an errand, so she would have such a big complaint.

Xing Shuang didn't say anything else, and when Caiyue brought the tribute book, she asked her to bring the list of New Year's gifts for Wang's reference.

After reading it, Wang had a different opinion on this sister-in-law.

I only thought that she was a woman from a small family, and she must have no knowledge and was full of loopholes. But now it seems that there is nothing wrong with her gift list.

Even with the help of the maids, it is great to be able to follow the rules of the General's Mansion to have a good one.

She had a heart to be better than Xing's, so she pointed to a few of them that could be changed or not, and said: "These live chickens and ducks are better replaced with all kinds of dried fruits." In the past, the dried fruits sent from our own Zhuangzi tasted better than those sold outside. If you send some out, it will be more brilliant than this ordinary chicken and duck. ”

Xing Shuang recited the sentence "It's a great help", and hurriedly called the maid to come, solemnly changed the list, and wrote it all according to what Wang said.

Wang couldn't help but feel proud, thinking that this sister-in-law didn't seem to want to go against him on purpose, and remembered the few times when his sister-in-law talked to him before moving, and clearly expressed her kindness, and at this time, the resentment towards her sister-in-law in her heart really gradually decreased.

After Xing Shuang finished changing the gift list and asked Wang about the banquet, Wang became serious and carefully told Xing Shuang all the precautions. Xing Shuang is like a primary school student, Wang said that she asked the maid to take notes, and in Wang's eyes, she was a little satisfied.
