bright moon goes west

Chapter 201 Shame

The night is getting darker.When Chen Xi came back from the outside, it was already nine o'clock at night.

Strangely, the living room was brightly lit, and his wife's confidant maid and Zhang Yan were there.

The coffee table is full of account books, and there are more than two dozen large boxes on the marble floor tiles. All the lids of the boxes are opened, revealing the thick account books inside.

Several people who looked like shopkeepers were reconciling the accounts. For a while, the living room was filled with the sound of "crackling" abacus beads.

Zhang Yan was the first to notice Chen Xi entering the door. He folded a corner of a page of the account book he was looking at, stood up from the sofa, and said respectfully: "Young commander, you are back."

Chen Xi nodded slightly, raised his eyebrows, and his deep voice revealed some doubts: "What are you doing?"

Several big shopkeepers in the room have all stood up.

Fei Qiong bent her knees, lowered her eyebrows and replied with lowered eyebrows: "Responding to the words of the young marshal, the young madam has recently purchased some property, and these account books are the turnover of the major shops for the past three years. The servant has invited Steward Zhang to help and is reconciling the accounts. .”

"Young Madam's new property?" Chen Xi's eyes darkened.The Cui family sold a large number of shops within half a year, and these shops would not be bought back by his wife.

According to his wife's character, there is really a possibility.

Chen Xi slowly curled her lips, this little Jiaojiao is really a vengeful.

It's about his wife's dowry. If Chen Xi breaks the casserole and asks the bottom line, it's hard to guarantee that these people won't misunderstand. Therefore, he directly told Zhang Yan: "Zhang Yan, since these are the properties of the young lady, you must be careful when you ask people to check them. Some, don't make mistakes."

Zhang Yan quickly answered "Yes".

Even the big shopkeepers of the Chen family were a little reluctant at the beginning when they were transferred to work for the young marshal's wife. Start with the books on hand.

After Chen Xi went upstairs, Fei Qiong lowered her head slightly, covering the smile on the corner of her mouth.

She has long seen that these shopkeepers in the commander's mansion are arrogant and disobedient.If these people belonged to the Young Madam, Fei Qiong would have pushed them back long ago.

But these people are not.I am just a personal servant girl next to the young lady. Although I also bear the reputation of being the steward of the West Mansion, Zhang Yan is the steward of the foreign affairs, so I can't do it by myself.

Therefore, Fei Qiong deliberately left these big shopkeepers in the living room to reconcile the accounts, just to wait for the young marshal to come back and pretend to be arrogant. Now it seems that the effect is still good.

Feiqiong beckoned to Bingzi: "The storekeepers have worked hard to reconcile the accounts. I asked the kitchen to prepare a supper. Bingzi, go and have a look. The food is ready to serve quickly."

Several big shopkeepers had been completely beaten down, and they hurriedly said: "Miss Feiqiong is too polite." The other said: "Miss Feiqiong, don't bother about what you have to do." Another continued: "We have done things well earlier, and it will be easier for the young lady to explain."

Fei Qiong had a beautiful face with a smile on her face, and said very modestly: "Don't refuse, all shopkeepers. As the saying goes, sharpening a knife is not a mistake to chop firewood. Everyone is full and has the strength to work, right?"

Fei Qiong clapped her hands, and the four servant girls walked in with trays.

Fei Qiong lifted the red cloth on the tray, and there was a flash of silver light on the tray. When she looked closely, she saw that there were neatly stacked silver dollars.

To put it bluntly, several big shopkeepers have dealt with money for decades, and all of them are panting abacus beads. Just a casual glance, you can see that the total number of these four trays is at least Thousands of silver dollars.

Fei Qiong said with a smile: "There are [-] silver dollars on this tray. The young lady said, you can't let the shopkeepers do it for nothing. After checking the accounts, each person will receive [-] silver dollars. It can be regarded as the young lady's reward for everyone."

Feiqiong closed the red cloth covering the tray.Several maidservants withdrew the trays.

Several shopkeepers also recalled it at this time.

Butler Zhang said several times that he wanted to move the account books to the small study.The Feiqiong girl said that the living room was brightly lit and the space was spacious, so she insisted on reconciling accounts in this hall.

Although the shopkeepers felt that it was inconvenient, if the young marshal was dissatisfied, the young marshal's wife would be worried anyway.A few people just watched the show and didn't say anything.

Dare to feel that this Feiqiong girl is waiting for the young marshal to come back tonight, so that she can play both kindness and majesty.

The shopkeepers sighed in their hearts. The girl who looks as fresh as a spring onion should be less than 20 years old. She is beautiful and can talk, and she smiles when she sees people.

The shopkeepers couldn't help feeling a lot of fear in their hearts, and they lost all thoughts in their minds.

Seeing this, Fei Qiong also knew that these people had turned a corner in their heads. After all, how many people who can become big shopkeepers are stupid!It's just to see oneself young and tender, relying on the old to sell the old.

Therefore, she loves dealing with smart people the most. Although her mind is like a lotus root, she also knows the current affairs.I believe that with tonight's show, these people can do the work at hand quickly and well without her and Zhang Yan's supervision all the time.

Fei Qiong estimated the time in her heart: the time limit given by the young lady was five days, and at the current speed, four and a half days might be enough to finish these accounts.

After a while, hot dishes were served in the kitchen.

In addition to whole chickens and ducks, there are also foods such as broiled mutton, golden silver fish, bamboo fungus soup, sea cucumbers with green onions, and blood clams stewed with papaya.

Fei Qiong was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable staying here, so she got up and said: "The shopkeepers take it easy, I still have to watch the young lady at night, so excuse me."

Hearing the words, several palm prints stood up and bowed to Fei Qiong: "Miss, you are welcome, the matter of the young lady is important, you can just go and do it."

Another shopkeeper said: "Miss Feiqiong, don't worry, we won't delay the young lady's affairs."

Fei Qiong had already noticed that the two shopkeepers who spoke were the leaders among these people, and the rest of the shopkeepers kept looking at the two shopkeepers Liu and Sun.

She nodded, her red phoenix eyes curved like a crescent moon, and said politely: "The room has been prepared for everyone, everyone is tired from busy work, and there is also a place to rest."

After finishing speaking, Fei Qiong showed a faint smile, turned around and went up to the second floor.

When her back disappeared completely, shopkeeper Liu wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Butler Zhang, you are not authentic, this girl is so powerful, and you don't want to remind me a few words. Our boss The buddies almost sat on the wax."

Zhang Yan raised his eyelids and spat out an olive pit from his mouth. He held it in a paper towel and threw it into the trash can. The corners of his lips twitched, and then he said unhurriedly: "I told you, you will listen." Is it? This person only knows pain when he hits a wall. "

The shopkeepers were embarrassed for a while.

In fact, Zhang Yan had told them before coming that he had to put his full energy into doing things for the young marshal's wife, don't think about things that shouldn't be done, and do the things that the young marshal's wife explained to him as soon as possible.

But these people don't take it seriously, they have to hit a wall before being honest.

"Okay, you should eat, and continue to reconcile accounts after eating, I'll go first." After Zhang Yan finished speaking, he walked out the door leisurely with his hands behind his back.

……

Afraid of waking Heng'e up, Chen Xi took a shower in the guest room and returned to the bedroom. He turned on the small light by the bedside, which was not dazzling, and cast his eyes on the bed~.

Heng'e was trapped in the soft thin quilt, and the bright red brocade quilt embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water surrounded a small face that was sleeping white and rosy, and the butterfly-like eyelashes were densely covered on the beautifully curved quilt. Under the eyes, there are small red lips like rose petals, and the mouth is slightly pouting, sleeping soundly.

Chen Xi stared at his sleeping wife, his eyes were tender, and there was a twinkling star in the bottom of his eyes, extremely gentle.

I was so busy during the day that I wished I could split myself into two people, and when I came back and saw this peaceful sleeping face, I immediately felt that everything was worth it.

Chen Xi got on the bed lightly, the sleeping little man wrinkled his nose, seemed to smell a familiar breath, rolled into Chen Xi's arms, his little head rested on Chen Xi's arm, and automatically adjusted Get into a comfortable position and fall asleep.

Chen Xi's chest trembled, and he quickly suppressed his own smile. He put his arms around the delicate and boneless body under his palm, and placed a soft kiss on his wife's forehead, falling asleep.

When Heng'e woke up, the pillow was empty.

In the middle of the night, a person was squeezed into the warm bed, and Heng'e still had some impressions, but as the month got older, she became more and more lethargic, and she was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes. Just go to work.

Heng'e put down the lily, red date and white fungus porridge in the bowl, and after rinsing her mouth, she pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief. She didn't know what Chen Xi was busy with these days. She left early and returned late. It seems that I should ask Tang another day flat.

"Young Madam, your phone number." Holding the painting tube in her hand, Xiangran stood up and called to Heng'e who was on the sofa.

Heng'e walked over slowly, and said lazily, "Who is it?"

Xiangran replied in a soft voice: "It's Director Gao, and the tone sounds very anxious."

Hearing this, Heng'e frowned, what kind of big event could embarrass Gao Ling? !

She put away her original casual expression, took the receiver from Xiangran's hand, and her picturesque eyebrows and eyes gradually became dignified: "Hey, brother, it's me."...

After hanging up the phone, Heng'e rubbed her aching temple, her bright red lips were tightly pressed together.

Gao Ling said on the phone that because of Chen Fei's death, Chen Xi was so furious that he drew his guns in the office.

This matter was entrusted to one of Gao Ling's subordinates, but somehow he got off the hook and let Fade Chen die on horseback.

The private nest where Fade Chen had an accident has been sealed, no entry or exit is allowed.If this matter gets out, the entire Chen family will stop being human.

How could you be so careless.Heng'e put her hand on her forehead, the East Mansion has already been arranged by herself, and everything is ready.As a result, when this incident happened, the third aunt had to stop, otherwise, wouldn't it be suspected of killing everyone.

A good game was ruined by one piece, where did Gao Ling find such a fool!

Of course, it's too late to say anything now.

Hang'e stood up, and ordered Karan: "Arrange a car for me, and go to the city~government~government."

No matter what, Gao Ling couldn't be found out, and after much deliberation, he had to help him take the blame.
