Chapter 191
"Princess, you've been looking at it for a long time, you should rest for a while, don't damage your eyes."

Ning Erlan put down the account book in her hand and rubbed her temples. "Forget it, let's see it tomorrow, it's really tiring to watch like this."

For several days in a row, Lin Yanyan asked someone to send over the account books of these years, which made her eyes glisten. She secretly felt in her heart that when she truly grasped the power of housekeeper, she must take care of herself. Improving the method of improving this bookkeeping is really torturous.

"Princess, the prince is here." At this moment, Xinchen came in excitedly to report.

Wei Lingxiao is here?

Although very tired, she still had to get up to greet her.

The weather is getting hotter now, when Wei Lingxiao walked in, there was thin sweat on his forehead, and Ning Erlan felt that those beads of sweat were a bit of an eyesore. "The concubine greets the prince."

"Get up." He walked to the table and sat down with a slightly tired voice.But his eyes scanned the account books in the house.

"Are you looking at the account books these days?"

Ning Erlan's eyes followed the beads of sweat that Wei Lingxiao wanted to shed, and finally she couldn't hold back and took out an embroidered handkerchief to wipe him carefully. "My lord, when it's hot, you should change into lighter clothes, so as not to sweat too much and feel uncomfortable."

When Ning Erlan approached, Wei Lingxiao could only feel a faint fragrance of flowers lingering on the tip of his nose, and felt her gentle but caring words, the bottom of his heart gradually warmed up at this moment, even the voice unconsciously relaxed Be more gentle.

"Well, the king will pay attention."

After wiping off the sweat, Ning Erlan felt a strong masculine breath towards her, only then did she realize that the two were too close together, was the scene just too ambiguous?
Pit!A woman's motherhood is really natural!
A little embarrassed, he wanted to push away, but Wei Lingxiao seemed to know what she was thinking, and grabbed her hand, forcing her to sit down beside him.

"The palace is not small, and it may take a lot of effort to manage it. If you are too tired, you can ask Yanyan to help."

Ning Erlan looked at the tightly clenched hands, forced a smile, the image of him holding another woman's hand suddenly flashed in his mind, and his heart suddenly became dull.But she didn't show it on the face: "The concubine is learning slowly now, and won't let the prince down."

"That's fine, I just don't want you to be too tired."

On the other side of the palace, after receiving the news that Wei Lingxiao had returned to the palace, Lin Yanyan, who had come to the courtyard gate and waited with anticipation, hadn't seen him for a long time.

Normally, Wei Lingxiao would not return to his house for a period of time, and whenever he came back, he would come to him first.

Xia Guo, the maid who went to inquire about the news, walked over quickly.

Lin Yanyan stepped forward expectantly and said, "Where is the prince? Have you come this way already? Xia Shuang, bring out the chicken soup you made for the prince soon..."

Hearing what Lin Yanyan said, Xia Guo didn't dare to speak anymore. "The concubine, the lord, the lord has gone to the concubine...but don't worry, the concubine, the lord may come to the concubine soon." Xia Guo added hastily.

The gentle smile on Lin Yanyan's face froze, and her whole face became ugly. A cold light flashed in her eyes very quickly, but she quickly returned to her usual expression, but the bitterness of the smile on her lips was not what it was. Can't hide it. "The prince hasn't returned to the mansion for several days, so it's right to go to the princess's place first. I was too hasty and forgot. Let's go in."

"Yes."

Wei Lingxiao didn't stay for long when he came back this time, and left again after having dinner in Lan Pavilion.

A night without dreams.

It took Ning Erlan half a month to sort out all the account books, and also wrote down some key points so that she would not make mistakes.

"Princess, Concubine Side just sent someone to say that seeing the summer getting thicker, it is time to make two new sets of summer clothes for the master and servants of the mansion. Concubine Side sent news of several shops and said to let Which one should you choose?" Xinyue held a thin book in her hand, and it recorded all the famous cloth shops in Bianjing.

Ning Erlan took the account book and flipped it lightly, and asked softly, "Who did you buy new clothes with in the palace in the past?"

"I heard that the maidservant came from Aunt Ma's natal family, Mazi Buzhuang."

"Then let's continue to ask the Ma family this time." She just took over and changed the original partner. It is inevitable that people will criticize her. Let's see how to make a decision.

"Yes."

"The rules are based on last year's. You should first check to see if the price of Ma's house has increased. If you have any questions, come back and let me know."

"Yes, servant girl will do it now."

The price list sent by the Ma family has not changed much from that recorded in the account book.Ning Erlan asked them to prepare the cloth and tailor it for the servants.

The ready-to-wear was received after half a month.She sent them to each yard after being checked and accepted.

She had already done it meticulously, but she still made a mistake.

Aunt Zhang, who has been recuperating for more than a month, has recovered a lot, but the doctor still said that it is unlikely to be pregnant now, and she needs a period of time to recuperate and see.

Now Aunt Zhang hates Ning Erlan very much, especially after hearing Lingcao's last call, Wei Lingxiao has already warned everyone not to mention this matter, but the more this is the case, the more she can't restrain the emotion in her heart hate.

In summer, the wind is blowing and the cicadas are screaming.It's a frustrating summer day.

Aunt Zhang, who was very irritable even without the influence of Xia Ri, brought her maidservants to the Lan Pavilion aggressively, and rushed in before the maidservants informed.

"Aunt Zhang, what dare you? The princess is taking a nap at this time, so what if you disturb the princess?" Xinchen stopped Aunt Zhang who didn't care. She didn't like Aunt Zhang at first, but now seeing her like this I'm angry.

"Go away, I want to ask her to reason and see what kind of family she is here in this place! As expected, those who come from a small place are full of pettiness and shameless, and they did such shameless things!" Aunt Zhang didn't care Xinchen yelled at the door to stop her.

Ning Erlan, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened with a start, frowning with a little drowsiness.Whoever wakes up from a nap is most prone to headaches and irritability!

"Xinyue, what's happening outside so noisy?"

"Princess, it's Aunt Zhang who came and said she has something to ask the concubine." Xinyue glanced at Ning Erlan who was still frowning, and there was no need to speak so bluntly.

"Let her wait in the side hall."

"Yes."

After getting dressed, Ning Erlan came to the side hall.As soon as she walked in, she heard a loud bang, and the porcelain cup shattered in the hall.

"Bold, dare to make mistakes in front of the princess, and you won't be afraid of shocking the princess." Xinyue scolded the reckless maid with a sullen face.

"The servant girl deserves to die. It was the servant girl who accidentally disturbed the princess with slippery hands. Please forgive me." The servant girl hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

Ning Erlan looked at the unfamiliar maid, then at Aunt Zhang who was glaring at her angrily, and sat down at the main seat without changing her expression.

"You look unfamiliar, are you serving in my yard?"

"Slaves, servants are serving in Aunt Zhang's courtyard..."

"Doing things so frivolously, take it down and play ten boards so that you can have a long memory."

"Wangfei is going to punish the servant girls in the concubine's yard? Lingque just accidentally slipped his hand and got ten boards. Wangfei is too cruel." Aunt Zhang seems to be waiting for Ning Erlan. In a word, busy interface.

Ning Erlan didn't speak, picked up the porcelain cup and lowered her head to drink the tea slowly.

"Doesn't Aunt Zhang need to greet the princess when she starts? It's fine if the princess is generous and doesn't care about her, but this servant girl broke the porcelain cup and almost hurt the princess. If she offended her master, she was easily forgiven. I don't know what these slaves will do in the future." What a mess."

"You! You are just a lowly maid, what qualifications do you have to teach my aunt?" Aunt Zhang was choked by Xinyue's words. According to etiquette, she really wanted to salute Ning Erlan, but she had to think about the person she hated To be humble, she simply can't do it.

"The concubine's life is so majestic. I didn't expect such a mistake in the housekeeper of the concubine. If you don't know it, you are not careful. If you knew, you would think that our palace is empty." Aunt Zhang didn't know what to think, her face His anger instantly turned into a mocking smile.Let Ganoderma lucidum bring up a tray with several dresses on it, which are the new summer clothes that Ning Erlan sent to various courtyards.

Ning Erlan looked at those new summer dresses without moving her eyebrows. "what happened?"

"Ha, the princess actually has the face to ask what's going on? In the past, the summer skirts that the palace bought for the master were made of silver and white silk and water silk. But the princess opened her eyes wide to see, what kind of material are these? They are actually made of the materials worn by slaves." The concubine heard that the concubine had been inspected when she received the goods, so the concubine didn't notice such an obvious problem? Or...the concubine knew what was going on a long time ago, it was just a makeup Pretend to think others don’t know? The material is different, so the price difference is huge.”

Aunt Zhang picked up a few dresses. According to the rules, the master of the palace has four summer clothes every year, all of which are made of high-quality materials.The grades of materials are also divided according to different grades, but no matter which grades, good materials are good materials, and the price is not comparable to what the minions wear.

"Xinyue." Ning Erlan lowered her brows and asked Xinyue to go forward to check.

Xinyue stepped forward to take a closer look and found that it was indeed the fabric that Aunt Zhang said, which was completely different from what she had checked before, so she couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

"Princess, it is indeed as Aunt Zhang said."

"How is it? I have nothing to say this time? Do you want to push the blame on others? Presumably, this is what the princess is best at." Aunt Zhang sneered, seeing that Ning Erlan didn't fall down this time. !

"Xinyue, ask people to go to various courtyards to ask if there is anything wrong with the newly sent dresses?"

"Yes, the servant will go here."
