Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 118 Ledger Problems

At that time, Xie Wanqing felt the crisp autumn weather and felt very comfortable.

Ordinarily, after lunch, she would have to take a nap, but Xie Wanqing was not in the mood to take a break because she had the accounts on her mind.

Now the management of food and clothing in the entire mansion has been handed over to Xie Wanqing. Although she is not greedy for power, she must be clear about such trivial matters.

Thinking about this, Xie Wanqing ordered Lingshu to report to the accountant first, and let them prepare the accounts to be checked.

About half an hour later, Xie Wanqing and Lingshu walked towards the accounting room one after the other. As usual, the housekeeper was checking the accounts.

"Miss." Hearing the noise, the butler quickly stood up and stood aside respectfully.

"Well, is the account book that the young lady wants to check ready?" Lingshu asked.

The butler raised his eyes and took a sneak peek at Xie Wanqing, then reached out and moved the ledger from the corner of the table to the middle: "It's ready, miss, please have a look."

"Okay." Xie Wanqing walked over, sat at the side, and had already begun to look at the accounts. Lingshu was beside Xie Wanqing, and spread out the accounts for Xie Wanqing to check.

The butler stood on one side with a confident expression on his face.

After a stick of incense, Xie Wanqing finally closed the ledger, rubbed her temples, got up, Lingshu hurriedly helped Xie Wanqing up.

Seeing Xie Wanqing get up, the butler hurriedly said, "Miss, are you tired? You go back to your room first, and I'll ask someone to prepare chrysanthemum tea."

"It's okay, I'll just see how long it takes. Butler, you can continue to work." Xie Wanqing and Lingshu turned and left.

"Yes, miss, go slowly." After the butler sent the miss respectfully away, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Lingshu helped Xie Wanqing walk to the boudoir.

"Miss, there is nothing wrong with the accounts." Lingshu frowned slightly when he noticed that Xie Wanqing was reconciling the accounts.

"There should be no problem. The accounts are clear and there is nothing wrong with it." After Xie Wanqing finished speaking, she felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, she couldn't tell for a while.

Lingshu opened the door one step ahead: "Miss, I'll call Su Wen to come over and take a look for you. You don't look well."

"It's okay..." Before Xie Wanqing could say anything, Lingshu had already run out.

"This girl." Xie Wanqing shook her head helplessly.

After a while, Lingshu brought Su Wen over.

"Miss, let Su Wen take a look first, I'll go to the kitchen to make a cup of wolfberry and chrysanthemum." Lingshu said and left.

Before Xie Wanqing could speak, Lingshu had long since disappeared. Xie Wanqing and Su Wen couldn't hide their smiles and looked at each other with a smile.

"Miss, let me give you a pulse first." Su Wen walked over with a smile.

Xie Wanqing didn't say anything, just stretched out her jade hand.Su Wen gently grasped it, and felt his pulse carefully.

"It's nothing serious. It's just that I've been a little tired recently. You should pay more attention to rest. Especially pay attention to your wrists. Don't lift heavy objects, so as not to cause the root cause of the disease. First, Miss, you should rest more and take care of your body. I think you might as well go to bed and take a rest now." I will." Su Wen carefully helped Xie Wanqing pull up her sleeves.

"Well, it's okay, Liu Yuejiao and Xie Siru have been grounded recently, so there shouldn't be any trouble." Xie Wanqing's eyes showed a hint of cruelty.

Su Wen didn't say anything, and started to prepare for Xie Wanqing.

"Miss, the bed has been made, you can rest." After tidying up, Su Wen turned to Xie Wanqing and said.

"Well, it's been hard work. You go down too." Xie Wanqing undressed after finishing speaking.

"Yes." Su Wen slowly exited the door.

After about an hour or so, the sky gradually darkened, Lingshu rushed to Xie Wanqing's room door in a hurry.

It happened to be seen by Su Wen, and he hurriedly stopped him.

"What's the matter, what happened? Where's the tea?" Su Wen was surprised. He didn't go to prepare goji berries and chrysanthemums. He went there for so long and came back empty-handed and in a hurry.

"Where's Missy?" Lingshu wanted to go in and report now.

"I've been asleep for a while." Su Wen patted Lingshu's back lightly, helping Lingshu calm down.

"Sleeping?" Lingshu calmed down a bit.

"Well, I'm asleep." Su Wen nodded with certainty.

"That, that..."

"Then, what?" Su Wen asked helplessly.

"The housekeeper..."

"Wait." Su Wen pressed down on the spirit pivot that was about to speak freely.

After looking around and confirming that there was no one there, he signaled for Lingshu to speak with his eyes.

Only then did Lingshu explain what he had just seen, Su Wen looked at Lingshu in disbelief: "The butler is so bold?!"

"What are you talking about outside?" A voice came from the back room. Xie Wanqing was in a light sleep just now, and heard something whispered outside, but it wasn't so real.

Lingshu and Su Wen looked at each other, and then Lingshu said: "It's nothing, how is Missy resting?"

"It's okay, you all come in." Xie Wanqing said.

The two replied in unison: "Yes."

Lingshu pushed the door open and entered, Su Wen looked outside and after confirming that there was no one there, he closed the door tightly.

"What did you guys say outside? Why are you talking so much?" Xie Wanqing was a little surprised when she saw Su Wen's actions.

Lingshu knew that he had interrupted the eldest lady to rest, and felt a little guilty now, but was speechless.

"Come on, I heard your voice outside just now." Xie Wanqing obviously smiled.

Lingshu was a little embarrassed: "Miss, I, I just..."

"Okay, I don't blame you, tell me, what's going on." Xie Wanqing sat on the edge of the bed, arranging the hem of her clothes.

Lingshu took a breath, and then said in a nutshell: "It's like this. Just now, the servant girl went to the kitchen to make wolfberry chrysanthemum tea, and found that there were not many chrysanthemums and wolfberries, so she used them all. It happened that the old lady's maid Zi Sister Juan came and said that the old lady wanted to drink some chrysanthemum tea, so she took the servant who made it. These are the same..."

"Get to the point." Seeing that their young lady was about to fall asleep, Su Wen couldn't laugh or cry.

Lingshu looked at Su Wen in confusion, why did she interrupt her?

"Well, let's get to the point." But after hearing Xie Wanqing's reply, I realized that Xie Wanqing was already 'closing her eyes and resting her mind'.

The eldest lady didn't see her expressive and emotional expression just now, but thinking about how tired the eldest lady has been recently, she adjusted her mentality and continued: "In short, there is a problem with the account book."

When Xie Wanqing heard it, her slightly closed eyes opened instantly, and she looked at the coffin seriously: "How do you see it?"

"Goji berries and chrysanthemums are very cheap outside, but they are twice as expensive inside the house. Don't you think this is a problem? If it weren't for the fact that I went out to buy it for you and didn't find it..." Lingshu still thought He said something but was stopped by Su Wen.

"What's wrong?" Lingshu asked Su with a strange look.

Su Wen wanted to show with his eyes that the eldest lady is getting a little angry now.But she never thought that Xie Wanqing would suddenly say: "Su Wen, then let Lingshu talk."

It was only then that Lingshu realized that the eldest lady was frowning slightly, and her eyes were full of anger.

"Miss... I..." Lingshu didn't know what to say now.

"Forget it, Lingshu, go and call the procurement to the side room."

"I asked just now, and he said that what he buys are top-grade, so the price is naturally expensive." Lingshu hurriedly continued talking about what happened to him just now.

Xie Wanqing stood up angrily and walked out the door.

No wonder I always felt strange when looking at the accounts in the accounting room. It turned out that the accounts were too clear, and there really is no clear account in the world.

"Miss, what is this?" Su Wen followed impatiently.

Lingshu has helped to open the door.

Xie Wanqing didn't say a word, but walked the road she walked in the noon.

Lingshu and Suwen already knew that their eldest lady was going to the accountant now.Lingshu also followed angrily, but Su Wen was worried about Xie Wanqing's health. She had been worrying a lot recently, she was exhausted physically and mentally, and she had to find a way to let the young lady rest.

The accountant at the other end of the account room has already received the news of the purchase, and all the words Lingshu questioned have been told by the purchase to the accountant.

At this time, he had already thought of a countermeasure.

The eldest lady has just taken over, so she must not know much about prices, and with the passage of time, she must not be able to find the previous prices. As long as the current ones are moved to the previous ones, and the prices have been lowered, for her now, it must not be too expensive. know.

As the accountant thought about it, he was shocked when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Seeing that it was the eldest lady, she quickly stood up and said, "Miss, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I haven't understood the accounts just now, where's the butler?" Saying that, Xie Wanqing went in.

"The butler is out."

"That's troublesome sir." Xie Wanqing looked at the accountant and said, let's see what you say.

The accountant looked at Xie Wanqing's eyes that wanted to kill people invisible, and he was very panicked, but it was not like he had never seen a person with strong wind and waves. The accountant suppressed the panic in his heart, and said with a forced smile: "No trouble!" ,No trouble."

Lingshu looked at it with a bit of sneer, and smiled so ugly, it would be better not to smile.

Su Wen had already left at some point, it seemed that Xie Wanqing and Lingshu had entered the counting room just now.

Xie Wanqing looked at the accounts over and over again, the accounts were indeed leak-proof and clean, but how could she believe such one-sided accounts when she already knew it well?

"Miss, come, drink this cup of wolfberry and chrysanthemum first." Su Wen brought the freshly brewed tea to Xie Wanqing.

Xie Wanqing's heart warmed up, her body was also very important, under Su Wen's gaze, she drank all the tea.After Su Wen took the empty cup away, Lingshu came behind Xie Wanqing and beat her shoulders.

This made Xie Wanqing feel warmer and more energetic.

After Xie Wanqing covered the last account book, a drop of sweat quietly flowed from the accountant's forehead.

"Miss, you have worked hard." The accountant said with a flattering smile.

"Sir, it's hard work." Xie Wanqing said with a fake smile.Doing so many fake accounts, and doing them in a watertight manner, with a good appearance and well-founded evidence, it is really hard work for corruption, and it really is hard work.

"Where is it?" The accountant thought he had succeeded in being deceived, and was very happy in his heart, but he still looked at Xie Wanqing with a sad smile on his surface.

"Miss, who is this?" The accountant felt suspicious when he found out that Xie Wanqing was going to take away the account book.

"I still don't understand some of them. I want to take them back and examine them carefully. Do you have any questions, sir?"

"No, no, please go ahead, miss." The accountant quickly waved his hand and said.

Xie Wanqing turned around and left with the account book.

"Miss, what is this?"

"You go outside and find a few vegetable vendors, and tell them to buy all their vegetables, pick them up at the mansion, and get the money at the old lady's Buddhist hall."

"Yes." After hearing this, Lingshu went out directly.

Xie Wanqing took the account book and ran directly to the Buddhist hall. Now that there are all the witnesses and material evidence, let's see how you still argue.
