Lin Wan's pink cheeks were full of blush, she pushed Lu Junzhao away panting, and said softly and softly, "I still have to read the account books!"

"I'll watch it with you." Lu Junzhao rubbed the tip of Lin Wan's nose affectionately, his arms still wrapped around Lin Wan without moving.

Lin Wan gave Lu Junzhao an annoyed sideways glance, then turned to the account book again.

It was cold in the north, and most of the account books of the shopkeepers would be handed over to the master for posting before the Laba Festival. After the account books were handed in, they would be closed one after another, so that the shopkeeper and the staff could have a stable year earlier.

Lin Wan frowned after flipping through the general ledger of the previous years, then closed the ledger again and laughed.Forget it, the shopkeepers always have their own plans, especially the big shopkeepers who have been around for more than ten or twenty years, the masters will turn a blind eye when they look at the feelings, as long as they are not too much.It's just that if there are too many mice, the inner warehouse of the palace will not be crowded.

Seeing that it is almost the end of the year, it is time to settle accounts.

Lu Junzhao saw that Lin Wan had closed the account books, so he quickly squeezed Lin Wan's shoulders, looked at Wen Sheng with gentle and doting eyes, and said with a smile: "Sitting for half an afternoon, get up and walk?" He got up from the bed and put on clothes. shoes, stood by the couch and looked at Lin Wan with a smile like spring.

Lin Wan nodded, put on her shoes and got up, cuddled up with Lu Junzhao, walked to the window for a while to breathe.

Lu Junzhao wrapped Lin Wan's whole body in his arms and wrapped it tightly. His tall body blocked most of the cold wind for Lin Wan.The cold wind seeped into the room through the window, only occasionally a wisp of it blew across Lin Wan's cheeks, it was cool, but not so biting.

Lu Junzhao didn't seem to feel cold at all, and just lowered his head against Lin Wan's forehead.In a distressed and pitiful tone, they discussed: "Zhu Qi sent a letter, and the southern border has already been cleared. I am on the road, and I estimate that I will be able to reach Weiyuan City in December. For the account reconciliation, let Zhu Qi Let's do it."

Lin Wan smiled and shook her head, put her hand into Lu Junzhao's palm, interlocked her fingers, and said in a pleasant and sly voice, "I've been waiting for half a year! This account book is almost ready, just see It's not a big deal for a few shopkeepers to hand over the accounts. Besides, in this business handover, the account books are the most sloppy. If something is wrong this time, don't you still have to toss for a while in the future? It's better to have it together this time. You Don't worry, I know it."

Lu Junzhao opened his mouth, but he was still worried, and thought about it.And decisively made a decision: "I will accompany you to meet people."

"Think about it again?" Lin Wan squeezed into Lu Junzhao's arms with a smile, her palm pressed against Lu Junzhao's, her eyes were flowing, and she said with a smile, "Your wife is so ignorant." Use? Even a few shopkeepers can’t handle things?”

He smiled and patted Lu Junzhao's cheek, and murmured in a low voice, "It's good to have you behind me. I can't stand being bullied!"

Lu Junzhao frowned.Reluctantly humming, she hugged Lin Wan and moved away from the window.

Into December.The heavy snow fell, as if it never stopped, the streets were deserted, and many shops were deserted, with their doors closed and no one was there.

Early in the morning, Ge Sanniang woke up and yawned.Then she was dragged by the arm by the little girl Hong Xing to the main courtyard, where she checked Lin Wan's pulse first.After explaining a few more words in detail, he turned back and went back to his own yard, got back under the covers and continued to sleep for a while.It wasn't until the hour of the hour was almost past that he got up refreshed, and after a while of fidgeting, he muttered with Nanny Xing.

As soon as Sishi arrived, Lu Ping took a dozen big shopkeepers and a few servants, carrying a box of account books to Beirong Yuan, knocked on the door, and was led to the living room outside by the servants in the yard.

The shopkeepers took a comfortable breath as soon as they arrived in the living room.The living room was warm and cozy, and several charcoal pots were burning in the corner of the room, emitting heat.The shopkeepers looked at each other and smiled, took off their cloaks one after another, and handed them to the servants who followed.

"Shopkeepers, please sit down and have a sip of hot tea. Madam will be here later." Changshou smiled as he watched a room full of pampered shopkeepers undo their cloaks while being served by servants. He took a sip, but seemed not very satisfied, frowned, and then immediately let go.

Regardless of whether the shopkeepers were standing or sitting, Changshou smiled and bowed to invite a room of shopkeepers to take their seats, then took a step back, glanced at the servant standing aside, and said with a polite smile: " Let's take a rest after the little brothers arrive first."

As soon as the words fell, without waiting for anyone to respond, he turned around, suppressed his smile, and said coldly to the boy in Beirong Yuan outside the door: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you come to lead the way?" The young servant who was standing with his hands down ordered, "Haosheng serves all the shopkeepers. I told my wife that the shopkeepers have worked hard these past few years, so let us serve as half masters. If anyone is naughty today, don't blame the shopkeepers." Don't show mercy to your wife."

After finishing speaking, Changshou lifted his feet and left the living room without turning his head, and he didn't care how many times the faces of the shopkeepers sitting in the room changed from blue to white, and when they were far away, they stood still and looked at There was an extremely disdainful snort in the living room.

All of them are old and shameless, looking at whether the master is there!I still want to show off in front of my wife!Hmph, I'm used to living a good life, I'm afraid I think I'm the master, and let's go wild, there will be times when you feel better!

Changshou smacked his lips contemptuously, turned and entered the main courtyard.

Several shopkeepers in the living room sat with unsullied expressions, and then they all looked at Lupine who was sitting at the bottom right of the main seat.

Lu Ping's face was calm, and he took a sip of tea unhurriedly, as if he didn't hear the irony and percussion in Changshou's words at all.

Just as the shopkeepers were looking at each other, Zhu Qi, who was wearing a very ordinary gray and white padded jacket, entered the room with a smile, followed by three stewards who were also dressed in ordinary clothes.

As soon as Zhu Qi entered the room, he was stunned, as if he was startled by the people in the room, and then he smiled and greeted the people in the room with cupped hands: "All the shopkeepers are gathered today, too. Rare and rare."

Lupine nodded slightly, but the hand holding the teacup tightened suddenly, and a trace of thought flashed in his eyes.Zhu Qi is the second master's steward, why is he here today?Second Master is here?

Thinking of this, Lu Ping's heart twitched, and then he suppressed the surprise and suspicion in his eyes.He drank his tea as usual.

The sharp-eyed shopkeeper immediately recognized Zhu Qi, his eyes flashed brightly, and then he returned the gift with his hands, and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence today, I haven't seen Manager Zhu for more than half a year." , "Guan Zhu is not in the south, why is it back to the north at this time of the year?"

Zhu Qi patted Xuemo on his body, shook his head, and spread his hands helplessly.Then he laughed smugly.

"It's the end of the year, and it's time to pay the Lord and Madam. Who knew that I happened to be with all the shopkeepers, and we happened to be together today. Oh, that's right..." Zhu Qi paused and scanned the room. Walk around, as if looking for a suitable stool.

Guanshi Yao, who is gentle and steady, didn't say a word.Before Zhu Qi could speak, he got up and gave up the position on the lower left of the main seat.

Zhu Qi cupped his hands to shopkeeper Yao, but sat down unceremoniously, and then continued the previous words: "There are still a few shopkeepers who came along the way and came to explain to Madam. Today is the day It's really good that they all met in one place." After expressing his emotions, he hurriedly greeted the three shopkeepers who came in and took their seats.

A room full of shopkeepers stared at the three unremarkable shopkeepers.Immediately, doubts gathered in his eyes.What does this young lady mean?Interrupt and leave them alone?

Not long after Zhu Qi and the others sat down, the sound of feet stepping on snowflakes and whispering voices came from the yard.

The living room fell silent for an instant.

Lupine heard the voice.His eyes darkened instantly, and then he frowned slightly.The second master actually came here in person?

Shopkeeper Qiao and Shopkeeper Yin, who were sitting below, looked at each other and clenched their hands tightly. It was only a blink of an eye, and when they saw a figure enter the room, their palms were already soaked in cold sweat.

A room of shopkeepers stood up quickly, and all looked at the figure approaching the door.

Several maids surrounded Lu Junzhao and Lin Wan into the living room.

Lu Junzhao took off the cloak for Lin Wan himself.Looking coldly around the room, Lin Wan was led to sit on the main seat.

Looking at the shopkeepers in the room with weird faces, surprises and wide-eyed eyes.Lu Junzhao's eyes slowly fell on Lu Ping, and he said in a cold voice: "Madam is weak, the chief manager on the account book should be more careful. It shouldn't bother Madam, so don't use it to disturb Madam's peace."

Lu Ping's face changed, and the astonishment and fear flashed in his eyes, and then he hurriedly suppressed his shock, bowed and bowed to the end, and responded very respectfully.That box of account books cannot be handed in.

He originally thought that the young lady was just a little girl who wanted to ask the second master for support, but the second master's temperament was not caused by women's lust.But looking at it now, Second Master's reaction was not at all expected!

Just such a little girl can manage the palace treasury?Lupine felt uncomfortable for a moment.

Lu Junzhao looked away expressionlessly, and looked around the room again, his voice was still cold, but with a suffocating oppression. "Use snacks. Madam will meet with you today and say a few words. I remember everything clearly. Madam's meaning is also Master's meaning!"

All the shopkeepers in the room looked at each other in dismay, their hearts were agitated, their feelings were inexplicable, and each of them obediently agreed with their own thoughts.

Zhu Qi calmly glanced at the slightly pale faces of the shopkeepers below, and a hint of sarcasm quickly flashed in his eyes.

Lin Wan was smiling from the beginning to the end, and glanced at the people in the room very lightly, pausing on Lu Ping, then closed his gaze, and pushed Lu Junzhao with a chuckle: "My lord doesn't know how to read the account book, or Go back first, lest the shopkeepers feel uncomfortable."

Everyone in the room held their breath and concentrated on it, their hearts surged with horror, but they just stood with their hands down, not daring to say another word.The second master's temper is clear to everyone in the north, if the second master is offended, it is useless for the prince to intercede!

Lu Junzhao patted Lin Wan's hand, gave some instructions in a low voice, and then walked out of the living room slowly.

Lin Wan looked at shopkeepers with different expressions in the room and Lu Ping, who was tense and no longer gentle, sat down with a smile, and said with a gentle voice: "All shopkeepers, please sit down. Today is to talk to everyone When we met for the first time, I was a bit suspicious of the stranger. The master was worried, so he sent me here, which made all the shopkeepers laugh at me.",

Lin Wan lowered her eyes as she spoke, and sipped her tea very intently, but smiled warmly in her heart.With Lu Junzhao as a big Buddha, how can he do it?He is her husband, so he should use it when he should.Take a look at this, it shows one side, and the effect is quite good.Lin Wan raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction.
