Chapter 10
Su Chengying smiled faintly and said, "Since the Duke's office is in charge of all the medical business in Beijing, it cannot be sloppy in accounting matters. Although I am new here, I still understand the principle of doing as the Romans do."

Mrs. Liu looked at the smile on Su Chengying's face and felt so creepy. The shops she owned had no revenue at all. She originally wanted to deceive Su Chengying's dowry first, but who would have thought that Su Chengying would want to settle the score?

The second lady, Mrs. Sun, said abruptly, "The Princess of the Sheng Tang Dynasty said it nicely, but how can I, a princess who lived in the Sheng Tang Dynasty, be able to calculate the price of Beiliang clearly?"

Su Chengying smiled again, "If you don't know clearly, you have to do some calculations to find out."

"Since Princess Shengtang wants to settle accounts, no one can stop her. But if the calculation is wrong, our Duke's mansion will not comply." Second Lady Sun smiled sarcastically and gave First Lady Liu a reassuring look. She didn't believe that Su Chengying could really figure out what Zi Chou Yin Mao was.

Su Chengying turned to look at Musk and said, "Forget it."

"Yes, miss." Musk nodded, and then pulled out his sleeve again.

The second lady, Mrs. Sun, was stunned.

what?
Everyone took a closer look...

It turned out to be a map of Beiliang and Shangjing!

"Our young lady brought with her 66 taels of silver, [-] pieces of jewelry, and [-] pieces of fabrics. Among them, Tiancan Yun brocade and ice bloom silk each stood at [-] pieces. Although the remaining Zhang satin is not a rare fabric, but all are counted. I also need ten thousand taels of silver..."

Musk then pointed to the map in his hand and continued, "The land deeds in the lady's hand should be here. As far as I know, there are hundreds of medical clinics in Shangjing, Beiliang, and these are in remote locations and the prices are low. Gao, after careful calculation, there is a difference of 7 taels from my lady’s dowry..."

The abacus in Musk's hand crackled, stunning everyone in the room.

A little maid actually knows so much about the price of going to Beijing in Beiliang...

Who dares to think about such a thing?
But Musk's ability to settle accounts is unmatched even by the accountants in the mansion!

Su Chengying calmly glanced at the surprise that could not be hidden on everyone's faces. Naturally, they did not know that Musk was sent to the Su family's accountant by her father to learn accounting when she was urinating. She had also inquired about Beiliang and Beijing as early as when she decided to marry. prices.

The old lady stared straight at Mrs. Liu. She knew that Mrs. Liu would not be able to exchange things with Su Chengying, but she never expected that Mrs. Liu would be so courageous!

If the disparity was really spread out, wouldn't outsiders say that the Duke's mansion was overpowering the Princess of the Tang Dynasty?By then, will the Duke’s Mansion still need to lose face?

Mrs. Liu's hand that was holding the land deed was shaking. How could she have imagined that her little thoughts would be figured out!
Su Chengying pretended to be surprised and covered her lips with a handkerchief, and said in shock, "Isn't the eldest lady always in charge of the affairs of the house? Does it mean that the eldest lady doesn't know how to handle accounts?"

Madam Liu, "..."

The old lady said angrily, "What are you still waiting for? Get all the other land deeds quickly!"

The eldest lady Liu did not dare to be negligent this time and hurriedly went out in person. In a short time, she got back seven or eight land deeds.

Although it is not a valuable shop, Mrs. Liu has been in charge of Zhongfu for many years, and no one has the ability to take anything away from her. Now, more than a dozen shops have been given away at once...

Mrs. Liu can vomit half a pound of blood just thinking about it!

Of course, Su Chengying knew that the shop that Mrs. Liu could give up would not be valuable, but she did not continue to fight, but asked Musk to keep all the land deeds.

Living in Beiliang does not happen overnight, but is a protracted battle.

And these things abandoned by the eldest lady Liu are the capital for her to continue step by step.Seeing that the old lady looked bad, all the ladies from each hospital stood up and left. Su Zhenzhen, who had been standing next to the old lady, also made a gesture to leave.

"You have a low status and can only leave after the other masters have left." The old lady said coldly.

She valued Su Zhenzhen because she brought benefits to the Duke's Palace, but now it was backfired. The old lady would never pamper Su Zhenzhen any more.

Su Zhenzhen could only look at Su Chengying for help, "Sister..."

Su Chengying, "..."

Your sister wants nothing to do with you now.

Pretending not to hear anything, Su Chengying followed everyone out of the main courtyard.

Princess Jing looked at the back of Su Chengying leaving gracefully, and she was so angry that she even gasped a lot, "She is the daughter of a sinner in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and she doesn't know how arrogant she is. If you ask me to tell you, she should be taught a lesson." Teach them the rules, and they will save themselves from losing the face of the Duke’s government when they go out in the future.”

Even Su Zhenzhen was scolded by these words.

Su Chengying, who had already gone out, naturally couldn't hear it, but Su Zhenzhen couldn't struggle, and she didn't have the confidence to fight back, so she could only bear it silently.

Princess Jing felt she was still angry and pointed at Su Zhenzhen's nose and cursed several times. The old lady pretended not to hear her the whole time.

After waiting for Princess Jing to leave, Su Zhenzhen left the main courtyard in disgrace. Unexpectedly, she bumped into someone just after taking a few steps.

Su Zhenzhen looked up in surprise, and a big fat face came into view.

Dongfang Junqiu raised his thick eyebrows, looked at Su Zhenzhen and said, "Where is this little beauty from? She didn't even say hello when she saw the young master?"

Su Zhenzhen was stunned when she saw the servants in the main courtyard paying their respects one after another. Then she realized that this person was the only son of the second wife. She quickly lowered her eyes and said, "I have met Young Master Junqiu."

Dongfang Junqiu chuckled, "Beauties don't have to be afraid, I know how to show mercy to women."

Su Zhenzhen said hurriedly, "I am the young master's aunt. Please respect yourself, Master Junqiu."

Dongfang Junqiu sneered even more, and stretched out his hand to touch Su Zhenzhen's chin, "It turns out that the good-for-nothing has recently married into the house, but that good-for-nothing is a sick boy, I'm afraid he will wrong this little beauty like you. …”

Su Zhenzhen didn't expect Dongfang Junxiu to be so bold. She was so frightened that she quickly dodged, but she tripped and fell to the ground. Her skirt was covered with a layer of dust.

The servants in the main courtyard completely ignored this and had no intention of stopping it.

Su Zhenzhen knew that she had no way out, so she could only bury her face on the ground. Her carefully painted makeup was smeared all over her face, and her hair was stained with a lot of dirt. She was in an extremely embarrassed state.

Dongfang Junxiu frowned in disgust, then spat in disgust and turned around and left.

Su Zhenzhen endured the humiliation and stood up alone. Under the gaze of the eyes in the main courtyard, she hurried away without looking back. She was filled with hatred in her heart.

If Su Chengying hadn't insisted on bartering for things, the old lady wouldn't have changed her attitude toward her, and the servants in the main courtyard wouldn't have ignored her.

In the end, it's all Su Chengying's fault!
