Chapter 261: Mr. Bookkeeper
The trolley was still on the side of the street, but the lanterns on the cart had been carried away by passers-by.
In this regard, Ah Dou did not have any expression and silently packed up his things.
Fuyuka chattered endlessly, vowing to catch the thief.
Ah Dou was speechless, and had already pushed the cart to the southeast lane.
Bai Song took the girl who looked at her, followed the cart through the alley, and walked out of the three streets without saying a word, and arrived in front of a depressed house.
Listening to the crunching sound of the cart inside, a middle-aged lame man came out, who was Zheng Ke, the father of Zheng Qi's painting.
I haven't seen him for more than half a year, Zheng Kezhi's change is better than his daughter's, I saw white temples, wrinkled face, a simple single clothes, one step at a time, and his hair scattered, how can he have the appearance of a big family?
When Bai Song saw him, he also saw Bai Song, and his face suddenly changed, and he was about to go back to the house.
"Daddy!" Ah Dou screamed.
Zheng Keli ignored it, went back to the house and closed the door, and locked it directly.
I don't know if this Zheng Ke is scared or resentful, or if he feels shameless.
The three of them stood outside the fence, Bai Song frowned and asked, "Now, it's time to tell me what happened, right?" ”
Seeing that his father did not welcome anyone to come, Ah Dou stopped entering the hospital, stood outside and whispered: "The Zheng family's sale of illicit salt was exposed, and Mrs. Zheng went to the capital to dredge up relations, and wasted a lot of effort, and finally suppressed the matter of collaborating with the enemy." It's just to punish the Zheng family for selling smuggled salt.
Then the emperor held him accountable, and the assassin at that time was regarded as the main culprit and ended up beheaded. And the Zheng family is regarded as an accomplice, but they also need to be held accountable. Daddy's life was miserable, and he was pushed out by the Zheng family to bear all the blame alone, and his leg was broken by the official. ”
Dong Xiang was so angry when she heard this: "The Zheng family is simply not human!" ”
Ah Dou shook his head: "The Zheng family is also benevolent and righteous, it was originally a capital crime, and my father and I are to blame, thanks to the Zheng family's public protection, there is no serious crime, although it is a broken leg, but it also saves his life." But my father was also kicked out of the Zheng family, and since then I have been with my father for my life. ”
"I guess some of them are implicated because of me, right?" Bai Song asked lightly.
"The matter between me and my son has been known to the clan."
Bai Song took a deep breath and didn't know what to say.
As if seeing Bai Song's guilt, Ah Dou said simply: "This matter may also occupy the light of the son." At the beginning, the Zheng family didn't kill us, and they were afraid that Gongzi would be angry with them again after learning about it, so Gongzi was also kind to Ah Dou. ”
Bai Song panicked when he heard this, and he didn't know whether the other party was sincere or opposite.
"Now that Ah Dou has told Childe everything, Childe will please go back. Although his current life is not as good as before, he wandered with his father when he was a child, and his life is far more difficult than now, so his son doesn't have to worry, and Ah Dou doesn't want any compensation. ”
"I lack an account room, Ah Dou was good at arithmetic when he was in the Zheng family, why don't you come and take care of the accounts for me, it's better than pushing a cart every day to take out any lanterns."
Dong Xiang was also overjoyed when she heard it: "Yes, Miss, come to manage the accounts for the young master, with Miss's ability, are you still worried about not having a good livelihood?" ”
Ah Dou was stunned for a moment, he was exhausted from managing his life on weekdays, and he didn't care about him, but he didn't know that today's Bai Gongzi was no longer the little liar he was at the beginning, but a hot figure in Jixian County.
Sitting in the first capital of Youzhou, he even got the ticket for the number one flower boat of the Lantern Festival, and he is about to enter the upper class society of Jixian County.
Ah Dou's memory is still in Bai Yutang, and he can't even remember Bai Song's real name, how can he know this?
Hearing that he was in charge of the accounts, he estimated that Bai Gongzi should have made a small living in the county, so he shook his head: "No need, there is no dissatisfaction in life now, thank you Gongzi for your kindness." ”
The understanding of Ah Dou, Bai Song is not as good as Dong Xiang.
Dongxiang knows that what Miss wants in her life is to be an upright accountant, not to hide behind her father's back as a shady abacus.
Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The young master's ability has just been shown, and now he has won many shops in Jixian County, and his career will expand in the future.
And the young master happens to lack a credible accounting room, and the young lady is good at this.
"Miss, didn't you say you wanted to prove that you were no worse than men? Now it's not the young master who compensates for the miss, but the young master is short of helpers, no matter what, try it first, if you don't like it, it's not too late to refuse. ”
Bai Song nodded: "Yes, I have some business in Jixian County, but I don't have time to manage the accounts on weekdays." Ah Dou, you are here to solve problems for me, and I can also give you a reward that is better than business, and the cooperation is beneficial to both parties, why not? ”
After several persuasions, Ah Dou was a little moved.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
After a few years of life as a young lady, how can you have the idea of peace of mind now?
The account office is not only a volunteer in his heart, but also can improve his life, thinking about his father's weakening body, Ah Dou finally nodded.
"If Bai Gongzi can be trusted, Ah Dou is willing to give it a try."
Dongxiang clapped her hands excitedly: "Great, Miss, we can be together again in the future." ”
"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and now I'll take you to see how the business is going."
Ah Dou looked at the house: "Bai Gongzi will wait for me to enter the house and discuss with my father." ”
Then Ah Dou pushed the cart into the hospital, opened the door to the house, and only came out after a stick of incense.
Outside, the carriage called by Bai Song had been waiting for a long time.
Ah Dou got in the car and went to the nearest bamboo paper store first.
When the carriage stopped in front of the bamboo paper store, Ah Dou realized that the account office she was going to be was not ordinary.
This bamboo paper shop is a recent upstart who has become famous, the business is so good that it explodes, and the bamboo paper is in short supply, that is, the lanterns she made with a cart, and all the bamboo paper she bought as raw materials. The last time I came to buy paper, I queued up for a full hour.
I didn't expect this bamboo paper store to be Bai Gongzi's industry!
Bai Song handed over the bamboo paper shop to Niu Da to take care of, and the former pharmacy yard was transformed into a paper-making workshop.
The carriage traveled to the backyard, and Bai Song took Ah Dou into the visit.
Niu Da was too busy at the front desk to call his daughter-in-law to receive him.
Bai Song introduced Ah Dou and said that he was the future bookkeeper.
At first glance, it was a little curious, and I haven't seen the girl's house as an accountant.
But the guys all know in their hearts that the power of the account room is very great, and they have dropped the work in their hands to get acquainted with Ah Dou, and they are not enthusiastic about asking if they are warm.
Ah Dou looked carefully at the various equipment in the backyard, as well as tons of bamboo.
A yard, swept at a glance, you can see more clearly how bamboo turns into bamboo paper.
At the same time, Ah Dou was also a little uneasy in his heart, if what he thought in his heart was not bad, this should be Bai Gongzi's trade secret, and he actually showed it in front of him so unreservedly, which also highlighted his inner trust.
It's just that she was deceived by Bai Gongzi once, and Ah Dou naturally won't be so easy to pay her sincerity, what she does is just money, and her heart for Bai Gongzi has long been dead.
Leaving from the Zhuji Paper Shop, the carriage was rerouted to Donglai Restaurant.
On the way, Dongxiang couldn't help but say everything that the young master operated.
Restaurants, storytelling, the Three Kingdoms, and thousands of acres of land.
In the next half day, Bai Song showed Ah Dou all the livelihoods, and the process was relatively harmonious.
Seeing Ah Dou's flat expression, it seemed that he no longer cared about the love and hate of the past, and Bai Song's heart finally calmed down.
Bidding farewell to Ah Dou, Bai Song returned home, but he had forgotten to prepare for the show.
When Dong Xiang came to ask again, Bai Song directly lost interest and simply didn't care about any program.
Bai Song believes that really good merchants don't care about such gimmicks at all.
……
Two days in the blink of an eye.
It's time to be full.
The lantern festival is imminent, and the women of Baifu are also busy dressing up, preparing to cruise the river at night to enjoy the lanterns.
Bai Song couldn't accompany the girls, and at the appointment of the Chen family, he had to go into the number one flower boat to drink and watch the ceremony when the lanterns were held.
This is a major event, representing the Bai family's entry into mainstream society and being recognized by the family.
Only one or two more figures with meritorious names and official positions are needed from the Bai family, and the Bai family can also be recognized as a scholar clan in the future.
In this regard, Xiang'er was very supportive, and personally chose a decent dress for Xiang Gong, and when she got up in the morning, she didn't care about dressing up, and personally came to give Xiang Gong an image.
Everyone in the family knew that the young master had received a lot of eyes because of his status as a poor family, but now he turned over as a serf and sang, and the whole courtyard was silent in a joyful atmosphere.
Bai Song was locked in the room by Xiang'er for half an hour, and finally came out neatly dressed, and saw Ah Da walking quickly.
The other party went up to Bai Song and whispered, "Young master, today is taboo, it is not appropriate to travel." ”
