A car accident, our family of three crossed

Song Ning's delegation of power made Dou Ma feel very relieved. She took the list and happily went to the backyard to arrange things.

As soon as Madam Dou left, Shopkeeper Yuan returned with a stack of account books. "Miss, these are the account books for all the shops in the capital. Would you like to take a look?"

"So many?" Song Ning looked at the account book on the table, which was almost higher than her head, and said a little discouragedly: "Then how long will it take me to finish reading it?"

After being a hands-off boss for so long, she got a headache when she first saw so many account books.

Aunt Min was standing by, and seeing how reluctant she was to take charge of things, she looked just like her mother.

Back then, her mother was the same. She would get a headache whenever she saw the account book and would leave everything to the people around her.

"Miss, this is your own business. No matter what, you should understand the current situation of each shop. As the owner, you still have to review the account books."

"I know that."

Seeing that she looked somewhat reluctant despite saying so, Aunt Min smiled and said, "If you don't want to see it now, you can wait a few days to see it."

The New Year is coming soon, and I can’t let the girl be unhappy because of some account books. That would be bad.

"Okay! Let's wait and see in a few days!"

Song Ning nodded immediately, thinking that Aunt Min was indeed worthy of being able to work beside the Empress, and she really had good vision.

She moved the pile of account books to one side and said, "Send these to the study later. When Yangyang's father comes back, he can help to sort them out."

"This..." Shopkeeper Yuan hesitated and said tactfully, "The Spring Examination is approaching, and it's a critical time to prepare for the exam. How dare I bother you with these trivial matters?"

When Song Ning heard this, he knew that he was still worried about Hang Shuheng, and sighed helplessly.

Although their starting point was to consider her, it would not be a solution if they always had to be on guard against Hang Shuheng in the future.

Besides, Hang Shuheng is her husband. She would be unhappy if her servants always treated their man with suspicion and distrust, as if he were a thief.

"Uncle Yuan, there's no need to be on guard against him. He's my husband, the father of my child, and the person in this world least likely to harm me."

"I know you're doing this for my own good, and you always put my interests first, but a family shouldn't just focus on interests without considering relationships. Family members shouldn't lose trust in each other. You work for me, but you don't trust my husband and are wary of him at every turn. Aren't you worried that this will create a rift between us?"

Song Ning's words were not only spoken to Shopkeeper Yuan, but also to Aunt Min.

Both of them were old, so they naturally understood what she meant and looked at each other awkwardly.

"What the girl said is that we are narrow-minded."

Aunt Min took the initiative to admit her mistake: "We have just arrived at the girl's side and don't know her husband's character very well. Moreover, the girl has inherited such a large estate all of a sudden, so we want to help you keep an eye on her and not let her be bullied or deceived."

"I never thought that doing this, in the long run, would hurt the relationship between the girl and her husband."

Song Ning felt that some words, said once, were enough to make her attitude clear. If the people under her didn't understand or still didn't know how to adapt, then there was no need for her to keep them around.

Fortunately, Aunt Min and Manager Yuan are not the kind of people who are inflexible. Come to think of it, if they were not both smart, Xiao Yun would not have let them manage the private property for so many years, and now he is directly sending the people and the huge amount of private property to her.

She changed her serious expression and put on a smile. She said to Shopkeeper Yuan, "To be honest, my husband has a set of skills in accounting. If you encounter any confusion in the accounts, you may ask him for advice."

"Yes, I noted it down."

When Manager Yuan heard what she said, he just responded without actually taking it seriously at all.

He thought that Hang Shuheng might be a good student. After all, he must be extraordinary to have passed the imperial examination.

In his heart, Shopkeeper Yuan didn't think that Hang Shuheng could figure out all these accounts. It wasn't that he looked down on the young man. After all, everyone has their own expertise, and his excellent academic performance might not necessarily mean that he could figure out the accounts.

But Manager Yuan was confident in his heart at this moment, but he didn't know that he would soon be slapped in the face.

At this moment, Hang Shuheng came back and saw that they were all in the main room, so he walked in.

"Are you all here?"

When Aunt Min and Manager Yuan saw him come in, they quickly stood up and saluted.

"Uncle."

They treated Song Ning as their own child. They could act casually in front of her, but they still had to be polite in front of their son-in-law.

Hang Shuheng smiled and nodded, saying, "Please sit down! At home, there's no need to pay attention to these empty formalities."

As he spoke, he sat down opposite Song Ning, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, causing Aunt Min to awkwardly withdraw her hand that had just been extended to pour tea.

After drinking tea, Hang Shuheng glanced at the pile of account books stacked up high on one side of the table.

"these are?"

"Oh! These are the account books that Uncle Yuan brought back." Song Ning pushed the pile of account books in front of him and said, "It's just right that you're back. Take a look!"

Although Manager Yuan had just been persuaded by Song Ning, he still felt nervous when he heard that she wanted Hang Shuheng to look at the account book.

Hang Shuheng didn't agree to her immediately, but asked, "Isn't this what you should do? You are the owner, these are your assets, you should understand the true situation of each shop."

These words were exactly the same as what Aunt Min had said just now. If he hadn't just come back from outside, Song Ning would have thought that they had conspired to say this!

Upon hearing this, Aunt Min raised her eyelids and glanced at him.

Song Ning pursed her lips and said, "Isn't it because you're here that I don't like to use my brain anymore? Besides, you're better at accounting than I am. Even if there's something fishy in the accounts that's hard to find, you can see it, but I might not."

"Isn't Uncle Yuan here? Let him sort out the accounts first, and then you can look at the summary."

"Oh! Uncle Yuan has to take care of so many things by himself, and he can't even let people rest. Please help him!"

Her words, which were slightly coquettish, made Hang Shuheng unable to say anything against her.

It's so rare for his daughter-in-law to ask him to do something for her, how could he bear to disappoint her?

"Okay, let me take a look."

He did not avoid suspicion, nor did he ask for Manager Yuan's opinion. He picked up the top account book and started to look through it.

After turning over only two pages, he turned back to check the accounts and frowned.

"That's not right! There's something wrong with the account."
