The Reborn Concubine Returns

Chapter 166: Shaken

The old men in this room are unreliable, Ruyue can only rely on herself, although she is a bit busy, but fortunately according to Bai Qingran's instructions, things are going on in an orderly manner.And Ruyue also discovered recently that this Xu'er is really a smart girl, no matter how she handles things or her words and deeds, she doesn't look like a yellow-haired girl of her age. It was a rare loyalty to Bai Qingran.

When Bai Qingran was still in the mansion, Ruyue also asked Bai Qingran out of curiosity, but she had some relationship with Xu'er before.It's just that after Bai Qingran thought about it for a while, he didn't think of any relationship between him and this girl. He just did good deeds. He was born in a place like Qingyuan since he was a child, not to mention that he only came into contact with rich and noble families. Playing on the street, I have never given a girl the favor of a steamed stuffed bun.

This made Ruyue very curious about why this girl was so loyal to Bai Qingran, saying that it was a clue, this girl had a clean background and was so innocent that no flaws could be found.Speaking of money, this girl is so smart and smart, she will definitely get a lot of rewards.Ruyue racked her brains and thought hard for more than a month, but she couldn't think of any reasonable reason.

But I don't blame Ruyue, after all, the reason why Xu'er is loyal to Bai Qingran is only such a superficial reason that people can't believe it.

Xu'er is a pretty dog.

In recent days, the cold wind has been raging more and more in the capital.The flowers and plants in Bai Qingran's yard were also destroyed by the disaster, but fortunately, Bai Qingran only likes flowers and plants, so he didn't force the peonies to bloom in February.The withered, yellow and falling leaves are just conforming to the laws of nature, so there is no need to force them.

Ruyue directed the servants to move a few pots of delicate flowers and plants into the house, glanced at the bare branches in the yard, and followed the servants into the house.

He closed the door and shut out the cold wind that was whistling all the time.Bai Qingran's house must be lit with warm charcoal fires at all times. This is what Gu Qingping ordered early on. Even if Gu Qingping left, none of the servants in this courtyard would dare to have the slightest bit of fire. neglect.

Ruyue took off her cotton gloves, and stretched out her plain hands that were a little bit purple from the cold to the stove. The warm stove could not stop transmitting warmth, and Ruyue's hands were warmed back to color after a while.Ruyue withdrew her hand and let out a breath, and when she raised her eyes, she saw that today's flowers in Bai Qingran's white porcelain vase that always had to be filled with flowers were a bit withered, and her face immediately turned cold.After reprimanding the maid on duty in today's room, she had to throw the slightly withered flowers in the vase out of the window.

After closing the window, Ruyue walked to the desk that Bai Qingran always used, began to grind ink and pen, and wrote the letter that would be reported to Bai Qingran every few days.The contents of the letters are almost the same, it is nothing more than describing the recent movements in the mansion, the situation of the accountant and several important shops on the street.I have to describe it to Bai Qingran in detail, Xiao Shizi's recent situation, whether he is still not talkative or he has a cold, and when he grows up, he can learn to babble, whether it is big or small, everything is in detail report again.

Ruyue grew up in Gu's mansion since she was a child, and because she is smarter and more sensible than the maids of the same age, the old teacher in the mansion would always give him a little trouble, so although he is not full of knowledge, he is still I don't know how much more ink there is in the belly than the average girl.Especially the writing in lower case is extremely graceful and beautiful, which makes many girls envious.

Taking away the inkstone that pressed the paper, gently drying the pen and ink, Ruyue carefully put the letter into the envelope, and carefully sealed it with the paste.After all the preparations, I put the letter into the wide sleeve, preparing for the little six to give the letter to him when he returns.

"Has this account been moved too much recently?"

Situ Mu was wearing a thick robe, and in one hand he was holding the account that Xingyu had just fetched.She frowned slightly, and looked at Xingyu a little strangely.During the period when she was sick in bed, her father had indeed cut off some contact with her. Because of her recent close relationship with Gu Qingping, she couldn't take care of the affairs of the mansion, so she decided to make it easier for her. They are all handled by Xingyu who grew up with her since she was a child.

Originally, Situ Mu thought that there would be some discrepancies in the accounts, but she did not expect that the loopholes in the accounts would be so big.For such a big flaw, if it wasn't that the father was too impatient, or that the girl Xingyu was too eager for success.After all, she is an illiterate girl, even though she grew up with her since she was a child, she has no ability to take over her accounts that she has learned family control from Murong Xin since she was a child.

Xingyu and Situ Mu have been facing each other day and night for more than ten years, so they are naturally aware of the sarcasm in Situ Mu's expression.It's just that Xingyu was not annoyed, but poured a cup of tea for Situ Mu before saying that it was what Situ Hui meant.

After Xingyu finished speaking, it was no surprise to see Situ Mu's frown deepened, Xingyu didn't say much, just put away the teapot, and slowly stepped aside.

Situ Mu was holding the warm and delicate teacup, and his emerald eyebrows were twisted.When did my father become so anxious? Could it be that his father wanted to evacuate the Gu mansion while Gu Qingping and Bai Qingran were away?However, if my father really had such thoughts, it would be too naive and impatient, unlike his usual cautious and cautious style of dealing with things.Not to mention how long Gu Qingping can go, even if he goes for a year and a half, just relying on her and Xingyu two girls, he wants to evacuate the Gu family, this idea is too naive some.

Especially when did his father trust Xing Yu so much, Situ Mu raised his eyes to look at Xing Yu, Xing Yu also noticed Situ Mu's gaze, and bowed his head slightly obediently, with the same respectful look.The past few decades of masters and servants have their own minds, which is really pathetic.

But no matter what, Situ Mu would not let Xingyu deal with the accountant.Xingyu had also anticipated this situation early on, and with a slight smile, he handed over all matters in the accounts to Situ Mu.Perhaps out of overall consideration, Situ Mu cleared up those false accounts.But only she knew that she was vaguely looking forward to delaying this matter, at least until Gu Qingping returned home.
