Hai Xiya and Xie Wenzai moved the account books to the room on the reef overnight.

Xie Wenzai originally disagreed, thinking that working in his house on the reef did not affect him at all. Moreover, Haijiao found a lot of information from the account books, and he could directly take it over for analysis, saving time and effort.

If all the account books were moved into the main courtyard, it would be inconvenient for him to look through the analysis in the future. When my cousin-in-law Ma Shi is not going out, she usually lives and sits in the main courtyard, and there are so many maids and servants around her. Xie Wenzai is a scholar who pays attention to etiquette, even during the day, as long as his cousin is not at home, he usually won't go into the main courtyard, isn't that too much of a hindrance?

However, Haixi Cliff persuaded him.

Hai Xiya thinks that after he gets home at night, he goes to his cousin's house to work overtime to settle accounts, and he always has to count until the third watch in the middle of the night, which affects his cousin's rest too much. In contrast, the account books are just right in the side room where the grandson lives, and the kang in the grandson's house is also large, and when needed, the grandfather and grandson squeeze it, which is more than enough.

Besides, the opposite door is where the second son, Hai Chang'an, and his family live. Hai Chang'an will not go to work in health school until the beginning of spring, and he is now idle at home with his children. His force was strong enough to act as a guard for the pile of ledgers nearby. As soon as a suspicious person approached, he could immediately detect it, wouldn't it be safer than to put it in the front yard with only three old men guarding it?

As for Xie Wenzai's opinion, the account books are placed in the main courtyard, and he wants to look through the analysis, which is inconvenient, Haixiya thinks that this matter is still very easy to handle. The transcript of the account book sent by Chang'an avant-garde cannot be moved lightly, but every time Haijiao summarizes and analyzes the account book, he will always sort out many small notes, and now he simply asks him to copy these small notes into another book, with the original account source attached to it, and send it back to Xie Wenzai in the front yard every half a day, and the latter analyzes and thinks. Haixi Cliff wants to refer to it after returning home, and it doesn't take much to have this little book.

Xie Wenzai was persuaded by his cousin. In order to keep it a secret and not to pretend to others, the two old men added a young reef, so they packed all the account books in boxes and moved them to the main courtyard.

Now there are half-kang account books piled up on the kang on the reef, and the remaining half of the kang has various tools such as kang tables, bedding, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and abacus, which are full, as if they can barely sleep one and a half people. Haijiao thought to himself, how can this squeeze out another grandfather? But then I thought that his wing room was only a few steps away from the main house, and grandpa could go back to the main house to sleep at night, could he worry about grandpa?

Haijiao slept awkwardly in the pile of account books for the night, and after waking up early the next day, just after the morning exercise, the errand boy came to knock on the door. Haijiao handed the letter to the other party, then went to the main house for breakfast, and after dinner, he went back to the house and started work.

Haixi Cliff went to the Yamen of the Shaanxi Dusi. Xie Wenzai felt that he could enjoy half a day's freedom without the messenger who guarded the account books, so he planned to go to the Zhenguo Mansion and ask the grandfather and the old military advisor if there was any new progress in the matter. In addition, yesterday, when the ancestors and grandchildren of Haixi Cliff and Haijiao were in check, they discovered some of Du Boqin's crimes, and he also needed to communicate with Grandpa Guo and the old military advisor in time. For some matters that should be investigated, it is time to send someone to investigate as soon as possible, lest Du Boqin come to his senses and destroy the evidence one step in advance.

Xie Wenzai had just gone out on the front foot, and Cao Gengyun and Lu Bainian also went out to visit friends one after another. They have not participated in the recent big moves of the Zhenguo Mansion, and they have only heard some rumors from Xie Wenzai and Haixiya, but they also intend to inquire with familiar old friends to see what rumors are outside.

Not long after, Uncle Ma sent someone over to invite his sister Ma back to her parents' house. The news of Chang'an's avant-garde finally reached the ears of his long-awaited veteran. It's a matter of the top boss, and he has to ask a question or two to see if he needs to do something.

This time, Begonia did not insist on accompanying her grandmother Ma to Ma's house. Ma knew what her brother's invitation was about, and she didn't mean to bring her granddaughter, but she brought Ma Li's family. The latter has been in the third room of the Zhou family for many years, and he also knows some rumors in the army, and may be able to provide some information for their brothers and sisters. No matter how bad it is, she can go back to the third room of the Zhou family to find Zhou Ma's or the familiar servants to inquire about some situations, so as not to let Uncle Ma step on the pit.

After Ma left home, in addition to the reef in the main courtyard, there were only three people left in the second uncle Hai Chang'an's family. Hai Changan fulfilled his duty of guarding his home very responsibly, and planned to inspect the whole house every hour, and basically stay in his house at other times. However, Hu needs to take care of the housework, but often has to go to the kitchen in the front yard or the sewing room in the back yard. The weather is too cold, she usually does not bring her son Xiaoshi, and always forces the child to stay in the warm room, even if the child is crying, she will not give in. At this time, Hai Changan always has to work a lot of effort to coax his son well.

When Xiaoshi cried again and wanted to go out with his mother, Hai Changan finally couldn't help but speak: "The lady is going to the backyard to see how the needlework is doing, right?" There is also a kang in the house, and it is also warm, so why don't you bring the children with you? It was the hour of the hour, and I had to make a round trip, and I couldn't leave Little Stone alone in the house. ”

Hu Shi thought about it too, so he was relieved. Xiao Shi suddenly jumped off the kang happily, put on the new fur tiger head shoes made by his mother for him, and then put on the big red fur tiger head hat made by the new Grape Sister for herself, and took his mother's hand and went out.

After a while, Hai Changan also left the house and went out to patrol around the wall of his house.

Haitang passed by her second aunt and cousin, and chatted a few words, claiming that she was going to the main house to find a few beautiful colored threads. The outdoor temperature was too cold, and Hu felt sorry for his son, so after only chatting a few words, he hurriedly pulled the small stone into the sewing room, not paying attention to how long the begonia had left.

Begonia has been gone for a long time. She didn't go to the main room, but went to her brother's reef house, took out the stationery box she had sent to this room in advance, took off her shoes and put on the kang, and began to help her brother settle the accounts.

As Begonia said when she volunteered, she is also a little expert in accounting, the abacus is fast and good, and she is quite familiar with various methods of making accounts, and she can always quickly find the unreasonable hidden in the accounts. Her participation not only doubled the work efficiency of Haijiao compared to the previous day, but also took the work of copying notes for her cousin Xie Wenzai at the end, and the handwriting was actually eight or nine percent similar to Haijiao's usual handwriting.

I'm afraid that Xie Wenzai will see it, and he won't think that this is not written by Haijiao!

Hai Jiao was amazed: "Little sister, when did you practice such a skill?" I didn't know! ”

Begonia smiled. She is usually used to reading the calligraphy of the reef, and she knows what the characteristics are, and she can easily write it by imitating it with her heart. She didn't want to do any confidential things, she just helped copy a few notes, and it was good to have an eight-image image, even if she was recognized, it didn't matter. But if Xie Wenzai didn't recognize it, she would have reduced her brother's workload.

She deliberately showed a triumphant expression: "I have a lot of skills, my brother will definitely be surprised by me in the future." Just wait and see! ”

Haijiao smiled and praised her, but didn't talk about it again.

He's still a little snickering. Today's work is far more complete than yesterday, my cousin went out again, he can set off early, go to the Zhou family's three-room village to talk to Jin Jiashu, and come back after lunch, there will be no delay at all! Even if Grandpa Hai Xiya knew that he was going to play with his friends again, and seeing that he was doing his work fast and well, he couldn't find anything wrong!
