Chapter 117: Accounting

The wind rose in the night, rustling on the branches and leaves.

Li Yao lay on the couch, looking at the dark night outside the window, tears couldn't stop flowing.

Suddenly, something was faintly heard outside.

Li Yao got up and carefully avoided Xianglan, who was already asleep in the outer room.

Pushing the door and walking to the courtyard, through a few lanterns under the eaves, I vaguely saw a red ribbon tied to the branch of the jujube tree in the corner.

Li Yao's tears fell suddenly, she squatted down and covered her mouth so that she didn't cry.

Looking at the ribbons on the branches fluttering in the wind, there seemed to be something shaking in her heart, and she suddenly tore open a gap in her resentment, grievances, and despair these days, so that she could finally cry happily......

When she had enough of crying, she stepped forward and tiptoed, carefully removed the ribbon, held it in the palm of her hand, and only felt that her whole body was warm.

"Girl? What do you do in the yard? It's cold, why don't you have any clothes? ”

The mother-in-law guarding the door heard the sound, approved a coat and walked out, and saw Li Yao standing with her head scattered, and the hairs on her back stood up......

"Isn't the girl stunned?"

Before the doorkeeper's voice fell, Li Yao glared at her fiercely and was busy silencing.

Li Yao didn't say anything, quietly stuffed the ribbon into her cuffs, and turned around and went back to the house.

.......................

Early the next morning, Li Yao came to Hua'an Hall early to greet Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li heard the news of Li Yao's beating yesterday, and her eyes swept over her slightly swollen cheeks, but the bottom of her eyes was still faint and silent.

"County Lord, how is this good? The four girls are only afraid of holding a grudge against our Spring Garden......"

Nian Xia looked at Li Yao's eyes coldly, still a little uneasy, and secretly called Li Taiwei to the corner and whispered, thinking of the Bai family's methods in the past, she was a little worried about whether Li Yao would follow in the white family's footsteps.

Mrs. Li chuckled lightly and said:

"People, each has his own way of living...... If she insists on getting into the horns, no one can help her......"

Nian Xia sighed, and his heart was this reason.

"Come here, all of you,"

Mrs. Li came out of the bedroom, holding two account books in her hands, and asked Grandma Sun to hand over one to Li Taiwei and Li Yao, and said:

"These two books are the entry and exit items of this year in my house, you should look at it first, and if you don't understand something, ask your grandmother ......."

"Be careful, in the future, when you get married, all the entry and exit of the house will have to be handed over to you, if you encounter some cheating, you have to stare at it clearly......"

Li Taiwei and Li Yao said yes, and sat in the hugging building with the account book in their hands to look carefully.

Li Taiwei guarded the treasury in his previous life, and often checked the entry and exit of the palace with old ministers such as Hubu Shangshu, and even Lu Xiao's military expenditure was also eloquent.

This account book was really a piece of cake for her, and after carefully flipping through it, she put it aside and ate tea.

Li Yao raised her eyes and glanced at her quietly, and then lowered her head to look at the account book carefully.

After an hour of tea, Mrs. Li walked into the hugging building in person, and saw that Mrs. Li was asleep on the table, and then saw that Li Yao was still looking at the account book conscientiously, and her eyes showed dissatisfaction.

"Sister Wei'er!"

Old Madam Li said in a deep voice,

"Look what you look like...... You're a sister, and you're not as good as your sister can sit still......"

Li Taiwei just closed her eyes to recuperate, opened her eyes when she heard the sound, stretched her body, and softly called her grandmother.

Li Yao put down the account book, sat down in a proper manner, and looked at Mrs. Li.

Old Madam Li sighed in her heart and asked Li Yao:

"Sister Yao, do you understand?"

Li Yao got up, blessed Mrs. Li, and said:

"Grandmother, Yao'er understands, mother has taught Yao'er some ......"

At the mention of the Bai family, Old Madam Li's eyes were dyed gloomy, and she pretended not to hear:

"Okay, tell your grandmother if there's anything wrong with your entry?"

Li Yao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Old Madam Li a little blankly.

She only heard her grandmother say that she looked at the account books, but she didn't say that she had to find faults.

"This ...... Grandmother...... Yao'er didn't see anything wrong......"

Old Madam Li bowed her head, she didn't expect them to see many ways today. After a pause, he turned his face to look at Li Taiwei again, and his face tensed:

"How does Sister Wei look?"

Mrs. Li stretched out her hand and handed the account book to Mrs. Li, turned to the fourth page, and said:

"Grandmother's book is wrong in three places......"

As soon as Mrs. Li heard this, her eyes widened like copper bells:

"Three?"

She has personally checked this book, how can there be a mistake?

Mrs. Li pointed to the seventh line of words and said to Mrs. Li:

"This is the monthly case of the next person issued at the beginning of the year, and in addition to his own silver, each person also distributes a reward of three taels to five taels of silver according to the rank of the servant. Among them, there are two maidservants in Hua'an Hall who have been demoted from the second class to the third class, but the reward is still issued according to the second class, which is the first mistake. ”

Mrs. Li couldn't believe it, so she took the account book in her hand and looked at it again and again, and she really called Mrs. Li the girl right.

Mrs. Li was not in a hurry, and pointed out the other two mistakes to Mrs. Li one by one, and everyone was shocked to lean over.

Mrs. Li looked Li Taiwei back and forth, and then handed the input account book in front of Li Yao to Li Taiwei, and said:

"Would you like to take a look at this one again and see if there's anything wrong?"

In this book, Mrs. Li deliberately missed a place, and wanted to test the two of them, but Li Yao couldn't see it, so Mrs. Li moved to test Mrs. Li's thoughts.

Mrs. Li flipped through the account books page by page, not only easily found out the mistakes designed by Mrs. Li, but also picked out another mistake that even Mrs. Li had not noticed.

She looked at Mrs. Li and asked:

"Sister Wei'er's ability to read accounts, but your mother has taught her?"

After that, Mrs. Li pondered it again, thinking that Showa's temperament was not as good as Mrs. Li could sit still.

Mrs. Li smiled when she heard this, and said casually:

"When I was in Xiliang, my grandmother taught some."

Mrs. Li was surprised, Queen Xiliang had a good account when she was still in the boudoir, no wonder Sister Wei could make such progress!

"Good!"

Old Madam Li smiled,

"This saves grandmother a lot of effort, and tomorrow grandmother will teach you some ...... on the side."

Mrs. Li smiled and said yes.

A trace of jealousy flashed in Li Yao's eyes, and he quickly lowered his head again.

"County Lord, Xiangye, please go to the study......"

Dafu came in from outside and greeted Mrs. Li.

"Since your father is looking for you, go now,"

Old Madam Li turned her head and said to Li Yao again:

"Sister Yao stays, and grandmother will tell you about these detailed accounts......"

Li Yao got up and said yes, and when she caught a glimpse of Li Taiwei's back, her eyes were dyed with a layer of gloom......
