My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 228 Watching the Fun

Does this mean that he wants to use Accountant Sun to establish his authority in the outer courtyard?

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Let's wait and see."

Hongye didn't even raise her head: "Miss, just watch."

Cui Ming said, "I want to see it, too."

Hongye got determined and the abacus beads clattered loudly. Finally, with the help of Qin Yuan and Cui Ming, she finished calculating the account books of the inner courtyard.

If you copy them down one by one, the total number after a few years is quite large.

Hongye was shocked. "Sixth Madam has been making a lot of money for so many years. She must be very wealthy. When the young lady takes charge of the household in the future, she should be a proper filial son. She can accumulate a huge fortune."

Cui Ming said, "I'm afraid the Sixth Madam's wealth is not that high. The Sixth Master said that she helps support her family, but he always asks her for money. Besides, she can't keep all the money to herself, so she has to share some of it."

Qin Yuan said nothing, just stared at the lines of words in a daze.

Hongye asked: "Miss, do you feel something is wrong?"

This wasn't a big mistake, I just marked it out when I was checking the accounts.

Hongye also saw it, blinked her eyes and said nothing.

The daily withdrawal of materials was not registered by the manager and the housekeepers, and the withdrawals were counted and recorded monthly. There was no designated purchaser for daily purchases, and the purchases could be recorded in the account according to the agreed deadline.

"Why?"

The Marquis said, "It's still bad to say it now. You just suddenly remembered something."

Gu Shiba groaned and said, "I know what this accountant Sun is crazy about. The next time Shen Changle asked for money to print the poetry collection of the Eighth Master, I made things difficult for him. Without the Eighth Master's note, you can still testify. I also forced you to find Cuiming to stamp the private seal before you could get the money. You were almost locked out of the mansion."

Seeing that the Marquis looked solemn, Hongye stopped asking questions.

Qin Yuan hesitated to speak.

I was also planning to follow along and watch for a while, and along the way I kept asking my wife what she had been doing recently, but she never mentioned anything like Jingzhi.

Hongye agreed and asked curiously, "Is that important?"

Even an old accountant who has not been in the business for many years may be that slow.

Accountant Sun curled the corners of his lips slightly.

That attitude is much worse than that towards Hongmian.

"However, you guys have nothing to do sitting there, so how about Accountant Sun take out all the account books of the inner courtyard over the years, and you guys do the handover?"

Gu Shiba smiled and said, "You were captured by Miss Hongye to help move things."

When the group arrived, accountant Sun was idly calculating with an abacus.

Therefore, when I saw Hongye and her people walking away, Accountant Sun was not a little surprised. I stretched my long neck back, smiled, and asked, "Miss Hongye, is there anything you need here?"

Hongye winked and said, "It was you who made the request to Madam."

Gu Shiba listened carefully and thought to himself that the maids around the Madam were more clever than each other. If he asked for Dahong in a few days, they would know what to do with Ba Hong.

Gu Shiba asked, "What can you come up with?"

Accountant Sun looked at the two piles of account books with a frown. It would take a long time to check them one by one.

How could it be possible that the account book of such a young man in the inner courtyard was finished so slowly?

Gu Shiba was shocked and narrowed his eyes: "So slow?"

Butler Han stood in the room with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless, and he said calmly, "Indeed."

Hongye also brought two maids to help hold the account books. When asked, she said, "You have finished sorting out the account books for the inner courtyard over the years and are about to return them."

I was just thinking about asking these big accountants to help me, when I heard Hongye say, "The two housekeepers and Gu Shiba are here and have seen it. The account books you brought are all over there. Accountant Sun will check them quickly today."

In front of Accountant Sun, he no longer seemed to agree.

Gu Shiba asked: "What is he going to do with Hongmian?"

All in all, there are five or six months in a year when the monthly allowance is paid later than the stipulated date.

Accountant Sun looked at Hongye suspiciously.

"Okay, he has a clever mouth, he can say anything."

As he spoke, he saw Gu Shiba again, nodded, and said, "Brother Shiba, you are here, but Cui Ming has nothing to say?"

It has to be said that the posture is still very intimidating.

Cui Ming leaned over to take a look. The young lady was staring at the record of the monthly payment dates, which would sometimes be a few days late.

Gu Shiba just asked again, scratched his head, frowned and asked: "Why do you want him and Hongmian to go back to return the account book?"

"Something is wrong, but..."

Hongye asked the maid to put the box in her arms away, and then said, "Accountant Sun, those are the account books of the inner courtyard over the years. I haven't finished reading them yet. Please check them and write a note. Gu Shiba can be a witness here."

Hongye said, "Madam Zaiba has told you to return the account book. It has not been altered and there are also some missing parts and losses. It is safer to have no witnesses."

On the seventh day, after finishing her daily affairs, Hongye reported to the Marquis and took Hongmian to look for accountant Sun, where she happened to meet Gu Shiba.

Hongye laughed and said, "That damn girl of his is as narrow-minded as a sieve. Even his eighteenth brother has been framed by her."

Qin Yuan said: "Hongye, when you check the account book of the outer courtyard, remember to mark this out."

Gu Shiba had already run out to call for help, and soon Butler Cao arrived, but Butler Han came later.

Hongmian said, "It's because Accountant Sun has offended everyone. Why would Brother Ran, who is so busy, go and see Jing Jing?"

At that time, Accountant Sun really had something to do.

The big look is really proud of what it said.

Accountant Sun swallowed his saliva and said, "Why is it so?"

Before the mansion was sealed, a lot more things happened outside the mansion.

Gu Shiba thought for a moment and said, "Okay, since I have something to do, I can go along and take a look."

Hongmian smiled and interrupted, "Of course Sister Hongye wants to help you vent your anger. Next time you go to Sun's account office to enter the account for the Jade Cream for Madam, I will refuse you. The implication is that Madam is falsifying the account and needs to ask Madam for permission before entering it. You must be very angry. Come back and tell Sister Hongye. Sister Hongye will be angry too."

Hong Yezhong snorted with a smile and said, "That's natural."

Hongmian asked, "Eighteenth Brother, did he go with you to see Jing Jing Huai?"

Before hearing the reason, housekeeper Cao sat under the armchair, sipping from a large teapot, and said, "Madam is very thoughtful. When Cuiming ordered people to take away the account book, she did some calculations. She only wanted to compare the amount that Madam returned with the amount that Accountant Sun kept. In order to avoid any disputes in the past, she really needs to check it to see if there are any mistakes, changes, or omissions."

"?"

Hongye said: "You can tell me that. When my elder sister tells Jingzhi, he will know it naturally."

Upon hearing this, Gu Shiba immediately said, "Go and call Butler Cao over and let him be a witness as well."

Hongmian whispered to Hongye, "Sister Hongye, without Brother Eighteen standing by, Accountant Sun still needs to hand over the account book quickly, right?"
