Chapter 55: Frost Red

Shuanghong knelt on the ground to apologize, but her head did not lower, but looked up at Xiao Yanlin, as if she was frightened, tears were still rolling in her eyes, biting her lower lip, looking pitiful.

Gu Baiyu watched it interestingly from the sidelines, with this look of wanting to speak, I don't know how much I thought I had been wronged.

It's a pity that this frost-red flattering eye was thrown to the blind man, Xiao Yanlin only glanced at the broken porcelain on the ground casually, and said, "Call someone to clean it." ”

Faced with a girl who wanted to cry and had a beautiful face, she didn't even look at it.

Frostred finally lowered her head and retreated, and after a while, someone came in to clean up.

Gu Baiyu got up, "The housekeeper told me that he would explain the affairs in the mansion to me today." ”

She and Xiao Yanlin are not slimy personalities, she should take over the affairs of the Hou Mansion, and Xiao Yanlin should also have his own things to do.

Sure enough, Xiao Yanlin nodded at him: "I'm in the study, if there is anything unclear about him, he will come to ask me, and the affairs in the house will have to work hard for you in the future." ”

After Xiao Yan left, the old housekeeper walked in, and before the two handed over the affairs and accounts of the house, the old housekeeper first talked about Gu Ruanruan.

"The person is still outside the ancestral hall, what does the lady want to do?"

Gu Baiyu thought for a while, and didn't want to waste time on Gu Ruanruan, so after a change of heart, he said: "Go and ask the second master, his own people, let him deal with it himself." ”

The old housekeeper nodded secretly, Madame is generous, let Xiao Ruoyun deal with it, and it can be regarded as giving him face, in the end, it is his concubine, if he is ruthless, he will not look good on his face.

Now it seems that Mrs. is very disciplined in doing things, and I hope that Xiao Ruoyun can be interesting, not because of a concubine and the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

After sending someone to deliver a message to Xiao Ruoyun, the old housekeeper took Gu Baiyu to the warehouse.

Said to be the handover, the Hou Mansion is very clean, there is no Yingying Yanyan, as for the people, what were the rules before, just follow it, she is new to the city, there is no need to make drastic changes so quickly, and if you encounter disobedience in the future, you can slowly establish the rules.

What is worth worrying about Gu Baiyu is the property and accounts of the Hou Mansion, which is also her confidence as the head of the house in the future.

The housekeeper first gave Gu Baiyu the list of the Hou's Mansion's treasury, took Gu Baiyu to count the warehouse, and introduced the Hou's Mansion's industrial title deeds and the like to Gu Baiyu by category.

"According to the meaning of the Hou Ye, these Zhuangzi and business will be handed over to the lady to take care of in the future, and now it is you and the Hou Ye who are newly married, and after this while, the lady can go to see it in person, or you can summon the stewards to come over for questioning."

Gu Baiyu nodded, very satisfied with the old butler's arrangement.

At least from the point of view of the accounts, although this family did not have a hostess before, the accounts were not bad, and the Zhuangzi shop and the like also had a surplus every year, and on these documents, there was also the seal of the Hou Mansion, which could help Gu Baiyu deal with these matters.

"This is the official seal of the Hou Mansion, a dry document account, once the lady uses the seal, it means that the Hou Ye knows and agrees."

Gu Baiyu held the seal: "He is generous, not afraid that I will empty the Hou Mansion?" ”

The housekeeper smiled gently: "Master Hou said, what is hiss is yours, as long as Mrs. is happy, you can dispose of these things as you want, but they are just things outside your body." ”

Gu Baiyu put away the seal, in the face of these things, she realized very plainly, to be honest, these things are nothing compared to the Gu family's century-old family, but Xiao Yanlin has only made a career from his own generation, and it is very amazing to save these family properties.

However, it wasn't until the old housekeeper presented a copy of Xiao Yanlin's private account that Gu Baiyu was really surprised.

She originally thought that those things might make Xiao Yanlin empty some of her pockets when she was hired, but now when she saw the cash of the Hou Mansion on the account, she realized that Xiao Yanlin was so rich.

Seeing Gu Baiyu's surprised look, the old housekeeper smiled: "Madame doesn't know, Hou Ye is invincible on the battlefield, Your Majesty still rewards most of the things like gold and silver, Hou Ye took out part of the family property, and the remaining part is stored in the silver village, and the other part is in the underground silver treasury of the Hou Mansion." ”

Gu Baiyu raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty only rewards gold and silver?" ”

The old housekeeper's expression was a little more restrained: "Hou Ye deliberately only asks for gold and silver, after all, Hou Ye has a heavy army, and the rest ...... It's just an eye-catcher. ”

Gu Baiyu nodded, Xiao Yanlin This is a good way to rein in the edge, asking the emperor for something else will be more or less considered to have ulterior motives, but this gold and silver treasure is not taboo, and the emperor is not short of this money.

After going through all the accounts of the Hou Mansion, Gu Baiyu pointed to Xiao Yanlin's private account: "Write it down, and also record the ones that the prince brought to the next place, and let me bring it back when my father should go back to the door." ”

The old butler was surprised: "How can this be done?" ”

Gu Baiyu smiled: "There is no shortage of silver taels in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and my father just asks me to live well." ”

By the time all this was done, it was already afternoon.

At lunchtime, someone in the army came to find Xiao Yanlin, Gu Baiyu happened to be concerned about the affairs of the house, so they had their own meals, and the two of them didn't care about the warmth of this life, and dealt with the things at hand.

This made the old housekeeper feel like they had been husband and wife for many years, and the tacit understanding was very good.

Gu Baiyu ate the pastry brought by Lingyu, remembered one more thing, and asked casually, "Who is that frost-red girl in the Hou Ye's courtyard?" I see that Hou Ye doesn't like to use maids, and there are little girls around her, I wonder if she is particular about her identity? Don't be ignorant in the future, the people around me bumped into that girl. ”
