Chapter 130
The fourth lady Jin was a smart person. After sending Qiu Wen away, she let the news spread to the people in the yard. For a moment, the old lady was very happy. Even the third lady Qian, who had been watching the fire from the other side, was Someone was sent to Su Chengying to deliver pastries brought back from her parents' home.

Mrs. Liu looked at the direction of the wind in the mansion, and when she thought about the money she wanted to add to the fourth house, she suddenly felt the biting cold air rushing down the soles of her feet and toward her head.

Su Chengying didn't care how uncomfortable Mrs. Liu was, she accepted the thank you gift from the third room with peace of mind. Just as she was about to change her clothes and relax, she saw Qiu Wen opening the curtain and entering.

"Your Highness Princess, Master Jingyu is here."

Su Chengying glanced at the empty inner room behind her. Dongfang Yuebai had not come back at this time. If she invited people in directly, she would inevitably lose the conversation. So she simply got up and went to the outer hall, and then asked Qiu Wen to invite people in.

"Jingyu has met my sister-in-law." As soon as Dongfang Jingyu entered the door, he bowed to Su Chengying.

Although he is not the first person to call her sister-in-law, compared with the previous Dongfang Ronglu, Dongfang Jingyu has clean eyes and a pure smile, which gives people a very sincere feeling.

In the last life, Su Chengying locked herself in Jiazi Courtyard and never had any single contact with other people in the Duke's Mansion. She still remembered that when she occasionally saw Dongfang Jingyu in the main courtyard, he had never shown such kindness as he does now. Instead, he looked indifferent and distant.

"Sit down and talk." Su Chengying said with a smile, "Since you call me sister-in-law, I will call you Brother Yu. This will not count as a stranger."

After hearing this, Dongfang Jingyu smiled more on his face, "My mother has always said that my sister-in-law is approachable. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that I have overthought it."

Who would have thought that a princess of a country could be so approachable?
"I just heard from my mother that my sister-in-law sent people to send me a lot of money to help me get married and have children. It's a pity that although I have given birth to my sister-in-law so much, I can't even get a decent gift in return." Dongfang Jingyu said guiltily Sighed.

Su Chengying said with a smile, "As an elder, I should take care of you juniors. If these things of mine really cause trouble to Brother Yu, it would be better not to give them away."

Dongfang Jingyu has always understood the principle that a drop of water should be repaid by a spring of water. Now when he heard Su Chengying's remarks, he felt novel and even more admirable. Women in the country were all attached to men and rarely had independent remarks. But the young man sitting in front of him Every word and every action of the woman was something that even he had to think about carefully before being amazed.

"But I think Brother Yu is sitting here now, and he should have already thought about how to return the gift. If my guess is correct, the reason why Brother Yu hasn't said anything yet is because he is afraid that I will refuse, right?" Su Chengying He said again with a smile.

Dongfang Jingyu was really surprised this time, and even his eyes couldn't help but widen a little, "How did sister-in-law know about it?"

Su Chengying said, "If you come late at night, you can't just come here to drink tea."

"No wonder my mother repeatedly warned me before coming here not to hesitate in front of my sister-in-law. I originally thought I was too reserved and my sister-in-law didn't understand what I meant. But now it seems that I am the clown."

Dongfang Jingyu sighed again at Su Chengying's intelligence, and simply stopped covering up. He took out a book and placed it on the table, "This is the account I made myself, and I asked my sister-in-law to review it."

During this period, Su Chengying learned the essence of accounting from Musk. He casually opened the account book in front of him and looked at it carefully for a moment. When he looked up at Dongfang Jingyu again, he was surprised and appreciative.

It is rare to see a kid from a rich family who can keep his accounts so clean and meticulous.Dongfang Jingyu saw approval in Su Chengying's eyes, and then he gained the courage to say again, "I have taken the imperial examination before, but I didn't even get a single pass. Later I discovered that compared to studying, I actually prefer abacus calculations. Now My sister-in-law has a hard time managing the drug store, and if she doesn’t mind it, I’m willing to share her worries.”

Do you want to come to Su Chengying's place to be the accountant?
"I don't know if the fourth lady knows about this?" Su Chengying is indeed a reliable accountant now, but there is a saying in various countries that scholars and peasants come first and businessmen come last. Dongfang Jingyu is a child of an aristocratic family, and doing business is not a child's play.

Dongfang Jingyu nodded and said, "My mother said that I am going to be someone else's husband and father, and I can no longer live a life of putting clothes on my hands. I don't think there is anything wrong with being a businessman. As long as my sister-in-law is willing to take her in, my mother will definitely take care of it herself." I will never do anything against my sister-in-law."

Su Chengying smiled with relief, "Fourth Madam is willing to send you to me to endure hardships. If that's the case, I won't be polite."

It just so happened that the store's profits had been getting better recently, and with the qualification to recruit tribute, the few stores now were no longer busy enough. Su Chengying discussed with Dongfang Jingyu and asked him to start looking for any drug stores in the city that sold cash.

Dongfang Jingyu didn't expect that Su Chengying would start talking about business right now. He quickly asked carefully about the money in the accounts of several shops, and then agreed firmly.

"Where's Su Chengying? Ask Su Chengying to come out!" Suddenly, there was a burst of noise in the yard.

Su Chengying and Dongfang Jingyu went out to take a look, and saw Dongfang Chunyue rushing into the house with anger, while Qiu Wen and several maids were blocking her.

Seeing this, Dongfang Jingyu quickly walked down the steps and came to Dongfang Chunyue's side, "This is the yard where my brother and sister-in-law live, how can I let you yell?"

When Dongfang Chunyue saw Dongfang Jingyu, she seemed to be more sure of her thoughts, and she opened her mouth and said, "She can do such a shameless thing by leaving you here in the middle of the night. How can she have the shame to ask me?" What? I’m going to shout, it’s best to let everyone know what she is!”

Su Chengying stood on the steps and said coldly with a black face, "Who am I? I won't bother Miss Chunyue. But Miss Chunyue has such a bad temper that she ran into my yard in the middle of the night and acted mischievously!"

Dongfang Chunyue was not afraid of Su Chengying at all, and shouted, "If you are fine, why did you call my brother here alone in the middle of the night? What others said is right, you are just a fool!"

"Chunyue!" Dongfang Jingyu's face turned dark when he heard this. This kind of thing can ruin a person's reputation. How can he say it casually?

Su Chengying was angry but not impulsive. Thinking about Dongfang Chunyue's words just now, she looked at Qiu Wen aside.

Qiu Wen was always good at observing people's words, so she hurriedly came over and whispered, "Miss Chunyue heard the servants in the mansion talking behind their backs, saying that Her Highness the Princess secretly made an appointment with Young Master Jingyu. I have just sent someone to find out the person who sent the message."

When Su Chengying heard this, she felt that this person might not be found.
