"Dr. Hua?" Xiao Lingxiao couldn't help frowning when she heard Bao Rong'er come back to tell her about it, "Who is this Doctor Hua?" ”

The old lady is old, so there has always been a doctor surnamed Guan in the Prime Minister's Mansion, if there is a serious situation, Xiao Shuyong will go to ask the imperial doctor of the Imperial Doctor's Mansion to come for diagnosis and treatment, but this Hua doctor, Xiao Lingxiao has never heard of it.

"I heard that this Dr. Hua is not good at diagnosing diseases, what he is good at is prescribing and dispensing medicines." Bao Rong'er naturally heard these words from Haitang's mouth. The so-called prescription and dispensing are of course not ordinary medicines, but various drugs with unexpected effects. The most common is aphrodisiac. Large families have more or less demand for this kind of thing, and this Hua Dafu relied on this to gain a foothold in the imperial city.

Xiao Lingxiao's brows furrowed even tighter when she heard this, the eldest lady is now pregnant with Liujia, what is the use of asking for that kind of medicine. Could it be that she wanted to repeat the trick like when Xiao Huanxue drugged Xiao Fengming? The eldest lady shouldn't be so stupid.

It was useless to think too much, Xiao Lingxiao hooked her fingers and called Bao Rong'er, and whispered a few words in her ear, and Bao Rong'er left with a smile.

In the next few days, Xiao Lingxiao automatically and consciously went to the eldest lady to help every day. For helping, in fact, the eldest lady is not lying at all, there are so many things to prepare for the New Year in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Just the comings and goings of the money on the books, more than a dozen bookkeepers have to be busy, not to mention other trivial matters. The third aunt and the eighth aunt were all assigned heavy work, and Xiao Lingxiao was deliberately left by the eldest lady's side to check the accounts of the Xiao family's arrivals and departures during the year.

"Our Xiao family is a big business, and there can't be a little mistake inside and out, Ling Xiao, you have to look carefully." The eldest lady had a serious face, but her voice was extremely gentle.

Xiao Lingxiao sat at the table, looking at the stacks of ledgers, and suddenly laughed.

The eldest lady was stunned when she saw this, but when she saw Xiao Lingxiao get up and stand up again, she said with a smile, "I heard the rumors that my mother wanted me to come over to help, and I thought that my mother really relied on me." But I didn't expect that, mother, you specially called me to insult me? ”

Xiao Lingxiao's words made the eldest lady even more confused, and asked Xiao Lingxiao to check the account book, but she didn't move at all.

Xiao Lingxiao let out a long sigh, looked at the bookkeeper who pretended to be taking inventory but actually listened to the movement here, and said with a light smile, "Mother may have forgotten, not to mention the younger brothers in the house, even the younger sisters, when they were five years old, they all began to read and write." When I saw that the second and third sisters were studying interestingly, I went to eavesdrop, but my mother found out, didn't she punish me severely? I still remember that my mother said that I was different from the second and third sisters, and I would not be able to become a big man in the future, and I would just be a woman with three virtues and four virtues after getting married. Later, I lost my sight, and I didn't have the opportunity to read and write. Mother, aren't you bullying me, an illiterate person, if you asked me to check the accounts? ”

Xiao Lingxiao's words are true, and the former Xiao Lingxiao was indeed illiterate. Fortunately, now she is here through time, so she naturally knows how to read. However, this kind of accounting work is troublesome and error-prone, and Xiao Lingxiao is unwilling to do it. In addition, she can't reveal the identity she came from, of course, she has to reject it clearly. What's more, this is also an opportunity to uncover the eldest lady's old story, although it will not have much impact on her, but it should not be let go.

If she didn't mention it, the eldest lady would really forget. At the beginning, she found a husband for Xiao Huanyu and Xiao Huanxue to teach them to read and write, but Xiao Lingxiao was curious and eavesdropped. The eldest lady really showed no mercy to her subordinates that time, and beat Xiao Lingxiao hard. It was also since then that Xiao Huanyu and Xiao Huanxue began to bully Xiao Lingxiao, the eldest sister.

The corner of the eldest lady's eyes swept to the gentlemen in the accounting room not far away, and secretly screamed that it was not good, this Xiao Lingxiao must have deliberately shaken out those previous things in public.

"It's all because my mother is not good, and I'm too busy to faint. Ling Xiao, didn't you study because you weren't in good health at that time? The eldest lady tried her best to save face, took Xiao Lingxiao's hand and walked out, while walking she thought about how to get back a city, and was walking to the threshold, the eldest lady's eyes lit up, her feet staggered, and her body suddenly threw herself to the ground.

Her pounce frightened the people around her, and she was now holding her stomach, and if she fell to the ground, something would have to happen. And the eldest lady was already holding Xiao Lingxiao's hand at this moment, Xiao Lingxiao reacted between the lightning and flint, and called out "Divine Wolf" in a dark voice, and at the same time pulled back with her hand.

Everyone saw that the eldest lady's body had lost her balance, but the next moment, she was miraculously standing firm.

Even the eldest lady herself felt incredible, she was clearly about to fall, but she was pulled by Xiao Lingxiao again, and this power seemed to be too much!

"My mother is pregnant, why do I walk so carelessly." Xiao Lingxiao held the eldest lady's arm and said preemptively.

However, the eldest lady did not give it for nothing, she was only stunned for a moment, then looked back, looked at her feet, and wondered, "I walked well, how do I feel that someone has tripped me......"

At this time, the maids and daughters-in-law of the eldest lady hurriedly stepped forward and squeezed Xiao Lingxiao into the distance with hostility. Na Liang's mother glared at Xiao Lingxiao, and said in a sharp voice, "There is only the eldest lady next to Madame, how can anyone else stumble Madame?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao didn't say anything when she heard this, but she heard the eldest lady reprimand Liang's mother, "Where are you so much to owe it?" If Ling Xiao hadn't held me, wouldn't I have fallen just now? ”

Mother Liang knew that the eldest lady was not really scolding, so she muttered in a low voice, "But it's really a person who can pretend, maybe he has some crooked eyes." ”

"Shut up!" The eldest lady was happy in her heart, but she reprimanded again. Then she turned her head and said to Xiao Lingxiao with a smile, "Lingxiao, the next person's mouth is broken, don't go to your heart." Let's hurry to the warehouse, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to read, you still have an eye for picking things. Each yard should add some decorations during the New Year, and this matter will be left to you. ”

Xiao Lingxiao smiled and nodded, without the slightest intention of resisting.

The eldest lady took Xiao Lingxiao to the warehouse, and after explaining something, she left with someone. Before leaving, the eldest lady didn't forget to give a look to a few people who managed the warehouse, and the other party naturally understood.

Xiao Lingxiao kept staring at the eldest lady, and the eyes she left behind, Xiao Lingxiao saw it clearly.

The work of adding things is also very simple, that is, the objects in the warehouse are allocated to each yard to decorate according to the high and low, and when the New Year is over, it is still necessary to take it back. Xiao Lingxiao watched her subordinates take things in front of her one by one, and then specified where to assign them.

The prime minister's mansion has a rich family background, and Xiao Lingxiao has seen it today. She estimated the price of these things, and thought that if Xiao Shuyong was ruthless, he might not be able to repay her one million taels of silver.

In the evening, when Xiao Lingxiao returned to Qinghe Courtyard, she saw Bao Rong'er coming over with a smile and whispered, "The master is like a god, and that's really the case." ”

Xiao Lingxiao smiled slightly, but the smile slowly disappeared again.

She guessed that the eldest lady had borrowed someone else's hand several times to get rid of her, and this time she should finally do it herself, but Xiao Lingxiao didn't expect that she would use that method.

"Master, this matter is confirmed, do you think we will get rid of the big lady at once?" The more Bao Rong'er knew about the things in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the more she understood why Xiao Lingxiao was bent on revenge. Even Bao Rong'er, the demon wolf, couldn't bear the past when he heard it.

Xiao Lingxiao thought for a while, shook her head and said, "I'm going to throw her into hell first, and then let her wait for death slowly." ”

Bao Rong'er saw that Xiao Lingxiao's eyes were full of coldness when she said this, and she couldn't help but shiver. Ever since she followed Xiao Lingxiao, she has always felt that the master is actually a knife-mouthed tofu heart, even for an enemy like the eldest lady, she has never had the opportunity to kill. But now it seems that the master is going to be serious......

"It's a watertight thing." Xiao Lingxiao instructed Bao Rong'er, and Bao Rong'er nodded with a serious expression.

After dinner, Xiao Fengming appeared as if he had been timed. He doesn't know what he's busy with these days, he always shows his face at this time of night every day, and basically doesn't appear during the day.

"Ling Xiao, the matter of Chufu Building has been clarified." Xiao Fengming had a rare smile on his face, and he looked a little irritable.

Xiao Lingxiao sat him down, poured him a cup of tea, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Fengming took a sip of tea, looked a little angry, and said, "That Chufu Building is also a mysterious place, and it took a lot of effort for Shang Lingyu to find out the details there. In the end, I found out that it was actually the property of the Five Princes! ”

"The Five Princes?" As soon as Xiao Lingxiao heard this person, she felt an incomparably headache. Although she didn't have much contact with this guy, she felt that this person was very deep in the city and was not a character to be messed with. What's more, the relationship between him and Nalu Zhongyang is really unpredictable. Looking at the five princes' domineering intimacy with Lu Zhongyang, Xiao Lingxiao was almost convinced that they were broken sleeves.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be a mess? Or maybe there's something else going on here?

The more Xiao Lingxiao thought about it, the more entangled she became, and she really wanted to call Lu Zhongyang immediately to ask what was going on.

Just when Xiao Lingxiao was thinking about this, Xiao Fengming suddenly shouted at the window, "Where did the thief come from?" Get in! ”

As soon as the window opened, a man dressed in black came in with quick movement.

Lu Zhongyang!

Xiao Lingxiao's eyes widened, and she was secretly shocked in her heart, does this guy have the special function of telepathy?

I saw that Lu Zhongyang glanced at Bao Rong'er and did not take off the veil. Seeing this, Xiao Lingxiao waved her hand at Bao Rong'er, who glared at Lu Zhongyang and turned to leave. When she left, Lu Zhongyang took off his veil and asked Xiao Fengming with a gloomy face, "I heard you talking about the fifth prince outside the window...... That Chufu Building, is it really the fifth prince? ”

Xiao Fengming looked at him coldly and snorted, "It's true." ”

Lu Zhongyang's face became even heavier when he heard this, his eyebrows were locked, and he muttered to himself, "Oh no......"
