Guo Wan glanced down and asked, "What's the matter with Aunt Cui?" ”

Cui Yuying pursed her lips, and then replied: "Mrs. Hui, Your Highness explained to the slave maid before leaving, Mrs. Dao runs a shop in Jinan, and I am afraid that there will be people who report accounts to enter Beijing at the end of the year." Today, the people from Jinan Mansion have really arrived. Now I have to ask Madame for instructions, is it to bring people here to talk, or does Madame want to go back to the room to entertain guests? ”

Guo Wan smiled with her eyebrows, and her whole person stretched out: "Who is here?" ”

Cui Yuying lowered her head and said, "Mrs. Hui, it's a girl's house called Lu Yi." ”

"Green Ripple? How is she? Guo Wan seemed to be extremely surprised, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why did she come?" She is in charge of big things, why did she come to the capital in person? Isn't something wrong? ”

Cui Yuying got up when she was surprised, and at this time she bent over and stood without answering.

Guo Wan groaned, and her eating hand gently tapped on the big case, and the dark paint color made her skin brighter than snow.

"Well, tell her to come, and speak right here." In the end, she made a decision, and smiled at Cui Yuying again, with a hint of imperceptible flattery: "Wait a minute, Aunt Lao will help me guard the door for me." ”

"Don't dare, this is what slaves should do." Cui Yuying bowed her head and said, her voice and movements were very upright, and she bowed again before retreating.

She soon came back, followed by Lu Yi, and when the two entered the pavilion, Guo Wan was sitting in the middle, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly solemn, and she was no longer lazy.

Cui Yuying lowered her head, and there was a bit of ridicule in her eyes.

The more small places like this, the more I like to put on music, and look, this shelf is no worse than the lady in the palace.

Mu Monkey and crown, it is this Guo Ruzi.

"Madam, the man has arrived." Cui Yuying replied upward, speaking in a flat voice, unable to hear emotions.

Lu Yi also squatted: "The folk girl has seen Mrs., Mrs. Wanfu." ”

She carried a small burden behind her, and when she spoke, her head hung very low, revealing her frozen red ears.

"No need, there's no outsider here, stand up and talk." Guo Wan stopped her and nodded to Cui Yuying, her expression still flattering: "Aunt Lao is guarding." ”

Cui Yuying retreated silently, and the embroidered curtain fell, separating the two worlds.

Guo Wan looked at each other through the window, and saw that Pearl and the others had dispersed, standing in the veranda not far away to listen to the call.

She withdrew her gaze and curled the corners of her lips imperceptibly.

"Is this a good way? Is it snowing in Jinan? Guo Wan turned to Lu Yi and asked with a smile, motioning for her to sit down and speak.

Lu Yi didn't dare to sit down, but lowered his head and replied: "It's all good on the road, Mrs. Xie asked." It hasn't snowed yet in Jinan, and it's not as cold as Beijing. ”

Guo Wan nodded, straightened her figure, and asked, "Why did you run here?" It was said that you don't have to call a person to report the bill, why don't you run this trip yourself? ”

Her voice fell, and Lu Yi already fell to her knees with a "flutter".

"Madame, forgive me, son...... Folk Girl ...... The folk girl made a big mistake. She said, although her voice was still calm, but her hands were clutching the red felt in front of her knees, and the joints were white.

"What do you mean?" Guo Wan said, her voice was not too low, so the sharpness and innocence in her voice felt harsh.

Cui Yuying, who was standing by the curtain, frowned.

A lowly-class son is also so arrogant, but he just relies on the good color and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to favor him a little more.

I'm afraid I'll have to cry in the future.

Cui Yuying pursed her lips, her face a little ugly.

Who doesn't want to choose the Lord? Only if the master is good, a slave like her will be good.

But now it seems that Guo Ruzi has a lot of problems, and she has been teaching slowly for so many days, and she hasn't broken them all.

Although he is a child, he is not teachable at all.

Cui Yuying frowned impatiently.

The green ripple in the curtain was full of panic at this time, turned around and took off the burden, held it with both hands, and held it high above the top: "Girl, this is last year's account,...... The folk girl and the bookkeeper checked more than ten times, but they couldn't get along. ”

She stepped forward on her knees and presented the burden, and her voice finally trembled slightly: "The people's daughter is useless, I really don't know how to explain to my wife, so I have to bring the account book and ask my wife to take a look." ”

Guo Wan's face was slightly cold, and she took the burden and opened it, and there were two account books inside.

"When did the account go wrong?" She looked down and quickly flipped through the account books, her tone cold.

Lu Yi said prostrately: "Mrs. Hui, it is the accounts from the end of last year to February this year, and there is a total deficit of 7,300 taels. ”

"So much?" Guo Wan gasped.

Lu Yi's face was close to the red felt, and his words were full of self-blame: "It's all useless people's girls, and they have been rummaging back and forth for a long time, but they can't find the whereabouts of the more than 7,000 taels of silver." Because of the importance of this account book, the folk girl did not dare to fake her hands, so she went to Beijing to ask her wife for her guilt. ”

She kowtowed heavily and wept like a complaint: "Madame forgives her sins, the people's daughter is really stupid, she has made a big mistake, and she has failed the trust of Madame, please punish Madame." ”

Listening to her faint cry, Cui Yuying's brows moved slightly outside the curtain, and she quietly reached out and hooked up a corner of the curtain.

The place where she was standing was at the corner of the pavilion, and she was not visible from the verandah, but the curtain on her side was facing Guo Wan.

The embroidered curtain opens a fine slit, just showing Guo Wan's figure, the big red folded branch plum pass sleeve jacket, and the white silk thread skirt, and a gold-inlaid red treasure eight immortals cross-sea skein hairpin is obliquely inserted in the hair, shining in the snowlight.

The gorgeous woman was burying her head in the account book in front of her, not knowing that someone was peeping outside the curtain.

Cui Yuying pouted and frowned again, and hated iron for not becoming steel.

A merchant girl is a merchant girl, even if she enters the East Palace, she is still covered with copper stench.

When is this now?

Both the main and side concubines will enter the master, there will be a turmoil in the East Palace, this Guo Ruzi is good, he plunged into the eyes of money, and then ignored the others, there is no distinction between primary and secondary.

Cui Yuying squinted vigorously.

She regretted it a little.

Knowing that this woman was unbearable, she would not come to serve.

According to the temperament of this Guo Ruzi, it won't take a year, and the East Palace is afraid that there will be no such person.

Her eyes turned cold.

Even so, it is no wonder that she is ruthless first, she has to find a way out in advance, so as not to be caught off guard when the time comes.

Cui Yuying frowned and pondered.

The concubine is just a mother, she knows her own pounds, and she is just a little housekeeper, and she can't make it up at all.

However, among those side concubines, there may be materials that can be made.

A gleam in her eyes.

Suddenly, the black temples in front of him swayed, and the golden hairpin was dazzling, dazzling.

Cui Yuying's heart was terrified, and she hurriedly put her hands away.

But I didn't know that at this moment, the slightly swaying embroidered curtain had already been seen by a pair of bright eyes.

Guo Wan hooked her lips and smiled, turned her gaze, and looked at Lu Yi.

Lu Yi was still kneeling on the ground, and under the hanging bun, the crying did not stop.

"That's it, it's not your fault at all, you get up." Guo Wan said, her tone was a little reluctant, but she was no longer indifferent.
