Chapter 997: Is it a little warm man or a lack of heart?
Early this morning, Wei Da, the chief manager of Yuantai's account room, stood in front of Wen Mianmian and didn't dare to come out, Yuantai's account books were sent over through their hands, and there was still such a big mistake, he was duty-bound.
"But if you think about it, what's the problem?"
As Xiao Er's audit exposed more and more problems, this was unexpected by Wen Mianmian, she thought that their husband and wife had reached their current status, and the people below would be more cautious in their words and deeds, and the welfare benefits given by Yuantai were good enough, as long as they worked in it for a long time, the dignity of the family was there.
It seems that she is still naΓ―ve, and the emperor is indispensable to moths, not to mention Yuantai's steward.
Wei Da Steward gave his hand, "The stewards who pay the accounts everywhere every month are separated, and the people in the account room have the time to check, and now after a while, the stewards will find all kinds of reasons to pay the accounts from the beginning, and all the account books and silver come at once, and the people in the account room are too busy to open, so they don't have the time to check carefully." β
This was calculated by the stewards below.
Wen Mianmian raised his eyes, "If you know the mistakes, change them, don't accept the account books and silver below until the account books are re-verified, and in the future, you must have your own charter, so that they can stagger the accounts, don't mess up and lose your square inches." β
Saying that, he stood up, "Okay, I won't be too involved in this matter, if you have any problems, go to Shizi, Shizi is interested in these things, and he has some talent in accounts, you are also an old man in the house, teach him with your heart." β
This means that he will not find trouble in the account room for the time being, but the account room will tighten the skin, and as the chief steward of the account room, he will also spend time to teach the prince, and the big steward of Wei will give up his hands, thinking that the days will pass so quickly, and the little master will grow up.
Yuantai, many stewards sat together with sad faces, the palace wanted to check the accounts, and they didn't hide it from them at all, they had been stewards for so many years and said that if there was no problem at all, it would be impossible, but ......
"How old is the little world, isn't this a mess."
Someone said what was in everyone's heart, if the princess came to check the accounts, they were still not so afraid, after all, the princess was easier to talk to, and the princess knew the twists and turns in it, and sometimes she would open the net, but Xiao Shizi is not, what kind of account does the kid who can't read all the words check?
"If you don't go to the princess and talk to it, you can't let Xiao Shizi mess around like this."
"I'm going to find it, although Xiao Shizi will take over this stall in the future, but it's too early now, and such a big baby should study."
"But no, what a big stall is this Yuantai, where can I take it to the little doll to toss around, go ......"
A group of stewards said they would do it, and they arrived at the palace when they met, Wen Mianmian, who learned the news, smiled lightly, and slowly walked out of the courtyard to see them, these stewards were loyal with a handful of snot and tears, and said that the little prince was still young, and when he was not thoughtful, he didn't know some accounts.
Wen Mianmian just looked at them with a look of great grievance, and waited until they had said enough before saying: "The reason for this audit is that the prince has discovered the account problem, not that the price of the transaction is not right, it is simply that the account is wrong, if it is one or two, it will be counted, even if the account room is careless, it is inevitable to add and subtract, but twenty or thirty times in a row are wrong, and they are all undercounted, if you don't check the accounts, you should tell the princess Yuantai to lose money next year." β
As soon as she said this, a group of stewards knelt on the ground, Wen Mianmian continued: "The prince is busy, and this princess is not idle, and she has relied on and trusted you a lot over the years. β
The stewards only knew at this moment that the matter was big, and their hearts jumped suddenly, and Wen Mianmian swept everyone lightly, "This day is too comfortable, people will be careless, and if they are sought after more, they will forget who they are, mention your words, this princess has said many times, this time I won't say more, the prince is young, but no matter how young he is, he is also the future master of this palace, and no matter how young he is, he has caught your mistakes." β
"This princess will give you a word today, from now on, as long as the prince is willing to meddle in the affairs of Yuantai at any time, and this matter has been handed over to the prince to deal with, Mrs. Songlin will assist from the side, and please get used to it earlier."
"Of course, I hope you will have a chance to get used to it in the future."
The stewards were like lightning strikes, and they understood the last words of the princess, but this time they were afraid that they would not be good, and they didn't know what kind of means the prince was, they ......
You must immediately go back to check the accounts, check and fill in the gaps, and make up for them as soon as possible.
On the road, Nianxia said: "These stewards have a good life, and they have forgotten who they are after a long time, and they don't want to think about it, no matter how young the master is, he is also the master, and he still thinks that the princess can come forward to help them." β
Laughing to death, can the princess reprimand her son for them?
Wen Mianmian turned her head sideways, "I also said that they, in the early years, I had the intention to train you and Xidong to manage the accounts, you two talk about it, where have you learned?" β
Nian Xia shouted wronged, "The two slaves and maids don't dare to slack off, and now they don't manage the accounts." β
"Don't underestimate the princess, the accounts of this brocade courtyard are quite complicated, there are too many clothes, jewelry, shoes and so on that the prince gave to the princess, and they are valuable, as well as the palace rewards, the grandson's filial piety, etc., the slaves and maids don't dare to take it lightly at all, each of them has to be registered, and then there must be a record of where these things go."
Wen Mianmian smiled: "Speaking of which, I delayed you." β
Nian Xia Le smiled, "It's good to delay the princess for a lifetime." β
Wen Mianmian quipped, "That's what you said, don't come back to me and say that you're going out to be a wife, I won't let people go when the time comes." β
"No, I'm my wife when I go back to my small courtyard now, and I'm my aunt here in the princess, decent, where can I give up."
The master and servant laughed and went to see the second child's class, and saw that the second child was sitting upright, listening carefully to the teacher's lecture, Bai Fuer nodded with satisfaction, and just went out to see Bishui who said that he had a headache and wanted to skip class, and saw her Bishui coming over with a smile on her face, "Mother is coming to see my brother?" β
"Mother is here to get you."
In a flash, this girl is eleven years old, and she is about to be twelve years old, and her temperament is becoming less and less stable when she first came, and she is becoming more and more lively, "I know that you have to skip class." β
Bishui made a headache, "Mother doesn't know, I followed my brother to settle accounts, my brain is broken, I have to rest." β
"You should learn to play the piano this year, and your fingers are also broken by pulling the abacus?"
Bi Shui nodded again and again, "Mother is wise, it's just broken." β
Wen Mianmian shook her head helplessly, "You just run away, my mother can't control you, and Yuluan will take care of you later." β
Yuluan is the most serious in learning, and she is still a small supervisor, knowing that Bishui will definitely make up for her if she doesn't learn.
Sure enough, as soon as he said Yuluan Bishui, he cried with a face, "I don't feel so painful in my fingers again, I'll go in a while." β
Wen Mianmian was satisfied, and then said: "Your father sent a letter of state, saying that he will come to Dongshu with your mother after the beginning of spring next year, mainly to see you." β
"Really?"
Bishui looked surprised, "I also received a letter from my mother before, my mother said that she is doing well now, and she can occasionally see her uncle, and in the last letter, she said that her uncle married her aunt, and her uncle will come back next year?" β
"I don't know about that."
Seeing her so happy for her, this is the first time she has seen her parents since she went from Dongkezan to Dongshu, but ......
"Bishui, there is one more thing that my stepmother wants to ask you."
She stepped forward and took Bishui's hand and walked slowly, and the maid who was waiting behind her followed unhurriedly, Wen Mianmian said softly: "Next year, your father and mother will inevitably mention your life's events again, you are the princess of Dong Kezan, and you have the responsibility you should bear, and my stepmother also told you about this earlier." β
"Since you can't avoid it, then choose one that satisfies you as much as possible, don't worry, in addition to being the princess of Dong Kezan, or my righteous daughter, no one dares to bully you in this capital, and your stepmother is the master for you."
"If you don't want your mother-in-law to hold a flower-viewing banquet for you, and invite all the sons of the same age in the capital to come, you first see if there is anything you like, and we will settle down next year when your father and queen mother arrive, it doesn't matter if you don't settle down, it's good to know more, and it's the same when you come to marry after you and Lu."
When I said this, I was also very conflicted, Bishui was precocious, but no matter how precocious she was, she was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.
Bi Shui was not as restrained as she thought, and nodded with a smile, "Mother-in-law, I'm still young now, can I wait until I make a decision?" β
"Absolutely."
Bishui smiled and said happily, "Then the stepmother should hold a flower-viewing banquet, I'll get to know each other first." β
Wen Mianmian smiled happily, "You should know first, but your stepmother told you that you can only know first, don't be deceived by those stinky boys' rhetoric, it's not unusual for anyone to have a mouth." β
"Although character is important, family background is also important, read less of those books outside, the rich girl is blind and runs away with the poor scholar, there will be no good results in reality."
Love was the greatest when she was young, and now she has to be realistic when she drags her children and daughters, just wanting to draw a big cake with her mouth, and buying a worthless jewelry on a small stall wants to cheat her daughter, don't think!
Knowing that her stepmother was for her own good, Bi Shui nodded with a smile, "Bi Shui won't run away with anyone, Bi Shui wants to find a stepfather like him, born handsome, only one wife has a lot of silver, so that his wife can dress up so beautiful every day." "New
"Ouch, it's not your stepmother, it's just your father-in-law in the capital." Wen Mianmian told her seriously, "He is not as handsome as your stepfather; Those who are richer than him are not as handsome as him, and the two are no longer compatible. β
Bi Shui said and stretched out a finger, "Bi Shui is not greedy, as long as he can afford beautiful clothes and jewelry." β
Yuluan, who followed her, came to catch Bishui, seeing them smiling and asking what they were talking about, Bishui cast a distressed look at Wen Mianmian, Wen Mianmian also felt the need to tell Yuluan about the criteria for choosing a mate, and took them to the garden to sit down and talk slowly.
The three of them said that it was an afternoon, and they didn't stop until the second child began to fiddle with the abacus again.
The news that the Annan palace was going to hold a flower-viewing banquet soon spread out, and the families understood that although the princess of Bishui was the princess of Dongkezan, she was also the righteous daughter of the king of Annan, and her status was not lacking.
Mrs. Wen came over for the first time, "This is for Bishui, right?" β
"Take a look at the vines, too?"
Wen Manman is going to be fourteen years old, seeing that she is going to be fifteen, this is the eldest girl, it is not that there is no lady to show favor these years, but Wen Manman has no interest in this, her temperament is getting more and more wild, she dances with knives and sticks all day long, and she is dressed up to be heroic, she doesn't wear any gorgeous and beautiful clothes, her hair is raised high, her head is not flowered, her hands are full of calluses, she went to the army last year, and with the help of her father, she got a women's barracks, and she stayed in the camp all day and didn't come back, and the anxious Mrs. Wen wiped her tears for many nights.
Wen Mianmian said with a smile: "Then I'll invite a few more generals to the banquet, in case Manman likes it." β
"I'll send her another message and get her back."
Mrs. Wen nodded again and again, "That girl will listen to you, this time she comes back, you can help your mother talk about her, this time it looks like she is going to be in time, she has reached the age of saying goodbye, where is it suitable to run out all the time, it is all your father's habit." β
Wen Mianmian persuaded: "Manman's temperament is like this, if she is forcibly detained in the mansion, she will be even more uncomfortable, and my father has sent so many people to protect her, no problem." β
"When this girl is older, she will slowly open her mind, not to mention that she is only fourteen, where is the urgency."
Mrs. Wen sighed and reluctantly spoke, "I've been worried since she was more than a year old, you all said that there is no hurry, it would be better to be older." β
Wen Mianmian couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, we have to wait for the flowers to bloom." β
Mrs. Wen, who was originally better, was just about to get up, but Xiao Er, who was holding the account book, came, and answered hardly, "Some flowers will never bloom, and the iron tree will not bloom." β
Mrs. Wen......
Wen Mianmian......
I was most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, Hua Xiaoer felt as if he had said the wrong thing, and made up for it, "The iron tree has also bloomed for a thousand years." β
"The ......"
Mrs. Wen got up, "I still have to go back beforehand." β
Saying that, walking quickly, Hua Xiaoer was puzzled, "Grandmother is so anxious." β
Anxious to go back and cry, Wen Mianmian said bitterly, "Little Er, can we not answer the phone in the future?" β
"Grandmother Fang Cai is worried that your aunt Manman can't find a good husband, I said to wait for the flowers to bloom, you come to say that the flowers will never bloom, and it is not good to pick up."
"What do you mean?"
Hua Xiaoer said that he didn't understand, Wen Mianmian gave him a good explanation, he finally understood, he thought that this matter would be over, but he deliberately went to her grandmother at night to make up for it, and picked a few flowers from the garden and sent them, telling her that the flower of her grandmother Aunt Manman would definitely bloom, so that her grandmother should not worry, Mrs. Wen, who had already uncovered this stubble, was uncomfortable for half a night......
Wen Mianmian, who learned the news, sighed, "I originally wanted to be a little warm man, but it turned out to be a lack of heart." β
