change marriage

When the Wen family came, Wen Jinghan was staying in the main courtyard with Mrs. Qin looking over the account books, and was a little dazed when he heard the news suddenly.

According to the rules of the Qin family, the head of the family will check the accounts in the middle of every month. After the death of Master Qin, Mrs. Qin reluctantly took over the burden of housekeeping.It's just that she is a woman after all, it's not convenient to show her face in public, and because of her personality, she seldom goes out to check her own business. She usually stays at home to look at the account books sent by various shops, and then listen to the reports from the stewards. up.

After Wen Jinghan found out about this, she just thought it was absurd. After all, there are truths and falsehoods, and it all depends on people.The account book sent to Mrs. Qin is true for one month and two months, one year and two years is true, and ten years and eight years can still be true?You need to know that if there is a tael of silver missing in the account, there will be an extra tael of silver in the wallets of those stewards and shopkeepers.It's just a weak mistress and a playful young master, who would take it seriously? !

Thinking about it carefully, Ms. Wen really doesn't understand how the Qin family has survived until now, and even on the surface it seems to have a bright future.

Knowing that the Qin family is a mess, Wen Jinghan also had a headache for a while, but after thinking about it, if she wants to intervene in the Qin family's housework and even the property as soon as possible, the fastest shortcuts can only be those that are mostly There are fake ledgers.So in the middle of the month, after she went to the main courtyard to see Mrs. Qin, she left in no hurry, dawdling, and finally found those ledgers.

Ms. Wen is unparalleled in the capital, she is proficient in almost everything except the word "wine".She likes elegance, but she is not ignorant of general affairs. In fact, most of the real family daughters are the main mothers after they get married, and most of them have already learned housekeeping from their mothers when they were at home.Wen Jinghan is naturally no exception, so she has naturally learned basic skills such as reading books, and she is even better than many people.

The thick account books have passed Wen Jinghan's hands, and she doesn't even need to fiddle with the abacus, she can figure it out clearly with her extraordinary memory and mental arithmetic ability.Coupled with Mrs. Wen's careful guidance, after reading a book, some speculations in her heart were confirmed-compared with that wolfish and ambitious cousin, the shopkeepers and managers of the Qin family are not fuel-efficient lamps!

Of course, Wen Jinghan didn't say anything at this time, she just looked through the ledgers taken out by Mrs. Qin in a leisurely manner.Each book is the whole month's flow of a shop in the Qin family. Although there are many unclear points without beginning and end, it can be seen from the inside.Coupled with the fact that Mrs. Qin's ability is not very good, many account books are also rough, and it is impossible to hide it from the experts. She is only a woman.

Mrs. Qin really didn't take these account books to heart, she just watched her daughter flip through the account books, but didn't even touch the abacus, she just smiled and said: "A Yi, you are free today, but you still have time to return the money." Can you bear the temper and come to my mother to stay here for so long." After she finished speaking, she glanced at the account book that Wen Jinghan had turned over, and said with a teasing smile: "I just don't know, what do you see when you look through so many account books ?”

What do you see?You can see a lot of problems, okay?

Wen Jinghan went through three or four account books in a row, and it was not a single account in the end, but she found a lot of problems just by looking at it briefly.But she thought that Qin Yi shouldn't be a person who can understand the ledger, so she couldn't talk to Mrs. Qin in detail, so she just found one of them and pointed it to Mrs. Qin: "I just flipped through it randomly, but this ledger looks a little strange to me. I don't understand, I don't know if Auntie can explain it?"

Mrs. Qin's ability to read the account books was taught by Mr. Qin, but Mrs. Qin was in charge of the family business back then and kept the inside and outside of the Qin family in order.But seeing that her daughter was finally willing to pay attention to these things, she was very happy, so she didn't refuse: "Okay, Ah Yi, just ask."

Wen Jinghan didn't turn the front page, but directly turned to the last page, pointing to the next number and said, "Aniang, this is the account book of Zuifenglou. Their monthly surplus is 300 taels, right?"

Mrs. Qin looked at the number Wen Jinghan was referring to, and the final settlement was indeed 300 taels, so she nodded and said, "It's 300 taels."

Wen Jinghan threw the ledger away, propped her chin with one hand, imitated Qin Yi's appearance, put on a casual and lazy look, and said casually: "But Zuifenglou is the best restaurant in Los Angeles. One, I heard that Mu Qi and the others will spend two to three hundred silver once to go...so the monthly income of Zuifeng Tower is actually just one meal?!"

"This..." Mrs. Qin was at a loss for words.She is just a woman from Si'an, she seldom goes out on weekdays, and she may not go to inspect her own property once a year, and she was stunned on the spot when she heard Wen Jinghan's questioning like this.

Wen Jinghan usually doesn't go out, she has never been to the Zuifeng Tower, and she hasn't had much contact with Mu Qi, a dude, since he was in Chunxiang Tower.But although she doesn't go out, it's not like Mrs. Qin was bullied by servants so that she doesn't know the price of food, rice, oil and salt. It's not uncommon for her to spend two or three hundred taels of silver for a meal in a restaurant in the capital.

No one is really a fool, Madam Qin vaguely understood something when she heard Wen Jinghan's words.However, before their "mother and daughter" could say anything more, someone from the outside hurried over to spread the word, saying that it was someone from the Wenfu next door.

……

Whether it was because of curiosity or anger, Prime Minister Wen thought about it, and finally decided to see the dude next door again.As for the reason, of course it can't be "died for love" or something, let alone his daughter's falling in love with him.Anyway, it was rumored that the kid saved his daughter, so it would not be an exaggeration to hold a banquet to thank him for this.

In this way, the servants of the Wenfu came to the door and delivered the invitation card, and because Mrs. Qin valued it very much, they hurriedly invited him into the main courtyard.

The one who came was a boy, in his twenties, and looked quite young, but Wen Jinghan knew that he was very valued by his father.Immediately he cheered up, and after the other party saluted, he asked, "I don't know why my brother came here today?"

The boy had a smile on his face and a simple and honest face, but he was really a shrewd and meticulous person.When he looked up, he scanned the entire room. Although all the books in the room were collected at the moment, he only revealed the account book of Zuifenglou that Wen Jinghan had thrown away before in a hurry. , was seen by him at a glance.

But the boy didn't say anything, and even his eyes didn't stop.With a natural expression, he took out an invitation card from his arms, presented it to Wen Jinghan respectfully, and then said seriously: "Thank you, sir, for saving my young lady in Cuiyu Lake a few days ago. I would like to express my gratitude, and I will specially host a banquet in the mansion, and I would like to ask you to take the time to talk about it."

Wen Jinghan finally took a look at the invitation post, and saw that the handwriting on the post was familiar, even five points similar to her own, it was actually written by Prime Minister Wen himself!

This made Wen Jinghan a little surprised. After all, the meeting between the two of them last time was not a pleasant one, and she still hasn't figured out what her father is thinking.But now that Prime Minister Wen actually wrote the greeting post in person, she naturally didn't dare to refuse, so after a cursory glance, she responded, "I dare not do it. Since Master Meng Wen invited me, Qin must come to visit on time."

Mrs. Qin even gave the boy some rewards, and then politely sent him away.

But as soon as they left, Madam Qin became worried again: "Ayi, the threshold of the Wen family is too high. Although our family and them are neighbors, you should also be careful, and don't make people unhappy."

Although Mrs. Qin didn't mention Wen Jinghan's meeting next door last time, but when Wen Jinghan came back that day, she saw a lot of people with a dejected look, so she naturally guessed that the meeting might not go well.Zhou Qiyan even took the opportunity to hint in front of Mrs. Qin more than once, so that Mrs. Qin had actually concluded in her heart that Wen Cheng was not happy with her daughter.

Mrs. Qin basically wrote these thoughts clearly on her face, how could Wen Jinghan not see it?She felt dumbfounded, but thinking about the experience of returning home full of confidence last time, she restrained her thoughts and replied seriously: "My child understands, so don't worry. Besides, Mr. Wen is hosting a banquet this time to thank you." , will not embarrass me."

Only then did Madam Qin feel relieved, and asked again: "When is this banquet held?"

Wen Jinghan's expression was weird for a moment, and then he replied: "Just tonight."

The banquet was held in a hurry. In fact, if it wasn't for the two news from the previous day, Prime Minister Wen would not have planned to pay attention to "Qin Yi".After all, people are not counted as being saved by her. She herself was fished out of the water by the guards of the Wen family. Naturally, her life-saving grace to "Wen Jinghan" cannot be called.Just be more polite and give some thank you gifts.

It was Prime Minister Wen's impromptu idea that this happened today.The mother and daughter are still exhorting, and the boy from the Wen family has already left the Qin family and returned to the Wen residence next door, and is reporting to Prime Minister Wen what they saw at the Qin family today.

The wealth and honor in the Qin family's house, the idleness of the Qin family's servants, and the politeness and softness of the Qin family's mistress were all explained clearly by this young man.Naturally, in the end, the account book that was too late to be put away was not missing...

Prime Minister Wen felt complacent when he heard it, secretly thinking that he really had a unique insight.Everyone in Luocheng is blind, they only saw "Qin Yi" as a playboy and uninhibited, but they didn't expect this person to be a master who hides his strength and bides his time.

But after being complacent for a while, he couldn't figure it out again—the third generation of the Qin family is single, and Qin Yi is the legitimate young master of the Qin family. Isn't it right to be in charge of the family business? !

After thinking about it, Prime Minister Wen could only feel that the pond of the Qin family might not be shallow.In this way, even if Qin Yi is really a man with both ability and political integrity, he can't be regarded as a good man, so there's no need for his daughter to follow him in deep trouble and fear!

In an instant, he made up his mind, don't let his daughter participate in tonight's banquet, just look at that kid by himself.

In the prime minister's mind, the young men and women have not known each other for a long time, far from being in an unforgettable situation.I haven't seen you for so long, even if there is something, I will forget it sooner or later...

The author has something to say: Wen Jinghan & Qin Yi: No, no, I can’t forget, I’m still next door, how can I forget? ! ! !
