Rebirth of Splendid Heaven

Chapter 104 Ledger
Lord Hou did not agree to let Kong Zhanpeng come to the Hou's mansion to recuperate, but An Yunyao sent Kong Zhanpeng to the door and left.Master Hou couldn't just watch Kong Zhanpeng freeze to death and die of illness at the gate of the Hou's mansion, so he was carried into the Hou's mansion.

When An Mujin knew this, he didn't know whether to scold An Yunyao for her incompetence or to laugh at why there is such a ruthless mother in the world.

Ning Cui, who came back from the outside, couldn't wait to say to An Mujin: "Miss, I went to see it secretly, and my aunt and young master are already sick. It's completely different from what I saw when I went to the Confucian Mansion. Now he Withered and skinny, with deeply sunken eyes, protruding eyeballs, and a pale face, he looks like a dead person."

"It's almost Chinese New Year, don't talk nonsense." After hearing Ning Cui's words of death, Lin's mother immediately reprimanded her.

Ning Cui quickly covered her mouth, and added: "Anyway, my aunt looks pitiful, I really don't know why my second aunt is so cruel."

An Mujin pondered for a while, then shook his head weakly: "I can't figure out how there is such a cruel mother in the world. However, I think I should go and see him. I didn't have time to apologize to him last time, Ning Yanning Cui, prepare some things, and follow me to Keju Garden later."

After the things were ready, An Mujin was about to take someone to the guest house when An Muqin, who hadn't seen him for several months, suddenly came to the door.

Seeing An Muqin walking towards him with a smile on his face, An Mujin had the illusion that this person was not An Muqin.

"Sister Jin'er, long time no see!" An Muqin walked up to An Mujin, and said with a slight smile, her voice was gentle and sweet, it sounded completely different from An Muqin's before.

"Sister Qin'er is here, come in quickly." An Mujin also said with a smile.

After entering the room, An Muqin looked at the people on the left and right, and said with a smile: "Sister Jin'er, Qin'er has something to say to you quietly."

An Mujin understood what she meant, and asked those around him to step back.

"Sister Jin'er, are you really willing to be used by the eldest lady?" An Muqin said bluntly, without waiting for An Mujin to speak, and continued: "Look at me, I am a living example. I do it for her There are so many things, but in the end she actually pushed the poisoning on me and my aunt."

An Mujin looked at An Muqin and always felt that she was very different from the past.She became much calmer, and she was no longer so hostile to herself, and her speech became level and premeditated.

It seems that the lesson from last time reborn An Muqin. In just a few months, she even got rid of some of her previous shortcomings.

"I've never been used by her." An Mujin looked at An Muqin and said seriously.

There was disbelief in An Muqin's eyes. She looked at An Mujin with big eyes, then lowered her head after a while, and sighed helplessly: "Since sister Jin'er is obsessed with obsession, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I will tell my mother?" An Mujin asked.

An Muqin smiled, and looked at the charcoal fire in the stove, "I'm not afraid of you knowing, I hate Da Furen, I hate An Muxue, and I wish they would die in front of me right away. But I also understand that relying on me I'm afraid I can't beat them with my own abilities. So I want to join forces with you, are you willing to deal with them with me?"

"I heard from the old lady that Erniang is the real Miss of the Meng family, and that the eldest lady is just a maid. A maid has been the head of the Hou Mansion for 20 years, and she was not good to Erniang before, accusing Erniang of stealing People, you are forced to drink poisonous wine, don't you want revenge?"

"I don't trust anyone!" An Mujin wanted to take revenge, but he never thought about being with An Muqin.

Because she knew how much An Muqin hated her before, how much she hated her, if she agreed to An Muqin's request, she might be used by An Muqin.

And she believed that without An Muqin's help, she would be able to settle Da Furen and An Muxue, it's just not the time right now.

Hearing what An Mujin said, An Muqin's face became ugly. Before she came, she thought of many reasons to persuade An Mujin.But he didn't expect that no matter what she said, An Mujin would not believe her.

"Then let's each rely on our own abilities." An Muqin is no longer the An Muqin she used to be, she tends to get irritable when encountering things that cannot be resolved.Even if she was very disappointed in her heart, she could still keep her face unchanged.

Before looking for An Mujin, she went to An Muyu first, but she was also rejected by An Muyu.But she didn't feel much disappointed, because An Muyu looked too timid, and it wasn't suitable for her to join forces.

Speaking of this, An Muqin didn't stay here anymore.When she got up to leave, seeing the things on the table, An Muqin asked, "Who are you going to see?"

"I'm going to visit my cousin." An Mujin didn't hide it from An Muqin either. After hearing this, An Muqin smiled and said, "Let me send you there, the person he doesn't want to see now is probably you." .”

"Then thank you sister Qin'er. These are some thank you gifts from my sister. You can accept them." An Mujin took off the crystal bracelet from her hand and handed it to An Muqin.

An Muqin knew that An Mujin didn't want to owe her anything, so she didn't refuse, and took the two strings of crystal bracelets.

After An Muqin left, An Mujin asked Ruju to follow quietly to see if An Muqin had really gone to Keju Garden.At the same time, Ning Yan was asked to prepare another item, just in case.

As soon as the order was finished, Xing'er called out at the door: "Ning Yan, Ning Cui, come out and help me."

Hearing Xing'er's voice, Ning Cui ran out and saw Xing'er carrying a bunch of things and struggling towards Jinxiu Garden.

"Second Miss, this is the account book that the eldest lady gave to the little lady. She said that it will be reconciled years ago. There are still many in Yun Wenyuan. The little lady really can't see it. Let me give some to the second lady." Xing'er rubbed started, panting.

It's two days before the Chinese New Year. It's really impolite for the eldest lady to let the little lady share the housework. She will give so much as soon as she gives it.

"Don't worry, mother, I'll finish watching." An Mujin said, and let Xing'er come in to bake before leaving.

Xing'er quickly waved her hand: "Little Madam has other things to do, I'll go back first."

"Wait." An Mujin shouted, and said to Ning Cui and Hui's mother: "Hui mother, you and Ning Cui follow Xing'er to Yunwenyuan, and bring all the ledgers. It's best to use something to store some, don't Make it obvious."

"Okay!" Xing'er said happily, and left with Mother Hui and Ning Cui.

After returning to the room, An Mujin smiled and asked Mother Lin: "Mother Lin, you will also read the account book, right? Let's read it together later. The eldest lady wants to cheat on my mother, she is dreaming."

"Yes!" Mother Lin smiled gently.

An Mujin really hadn't thought about how much property the Hou Mansion had.But after seeing so many ledgers, she realized that the Hou Mansion is actually quite rich.

But when she opened the first account book, what she saw was a loss, and the second and third account books were all losses.

Mother Lin also saw the problems with the ledgers. Most of them were losing money, and even those who made money did not make much.The more ones are no more than two or three hundred taels of silver, and the few are one or two taels of silver.

"There is a problem with these books." An Mujin put down the books and said with a headache.

"Miss, don't worry, we'll find out where the problem is if we're right one by one." Mother Lin said calmly.

"En!" An Mujin calmed down, and began to check page by page, finally allowing her to find the problem.

Some of the money went to nowhere at all, An Mujin thought that the money must have been embezzled by the eldest lady.

On the night of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, everyone took turns to fall asleep, and they only slept for an hour.The next day, he read it all morning, and in the afternoon, he finally sorted out the accounts in these books, and An Mujin marked all the missing money.

Taking these ledgers to Yunwenyuan, the little lady was explaining something to some women.

Those women stood crookedly, and they didn't pay attention to the little lady at all.The little lady was not annoyed, and continued to order what to do.

When it came to adding some new flower scenes to Qinxiang Garden, a woman said in a difficult way: "Little madam, tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, where should I go to buy flowers and plants. Besides, it's winter, I bought them They will also freeze to death.”

"It's enough to buy two pots of Evergreen. As for where to buy them, several mothers know better than me. If there is anything that can't be done, I will tell Lord Hou directly, and you don't have to use it next year." The little lady said with a smile .

The women were dissatisfied in their hearts, but when they saw the young lady smiling, they didn't dare to refute her anything, so they had to agree first, and then make plans after asking the eldest lady for instructions.

An Mujin waited for the young lady and the women to finish explaining before entering the house.

"Jin'er, have you read all these books?" The little lady asked in surprise, and An Mujin nodded: "Mother, everything is on this piece of paper. When mother asks you, just follow what's on the paper. "

The little lady took the blank paper and put it on the table casually, not paying too much attention to it: "According to what I know about her, she will definitely ask me at tomorrow's New Year's Eve dinner, and you can just tell Jiner directly." gone."

"Mother, isn't it appropriate for Jin'er to say that?" An Mujin asked with a smile, feeling that the little madam seemed to be a different person since she took charge of the Hou's mansion.

"What's inappropriate? When my mother was still in the Meng Manor, she helped my mother with housework. It's just that Yujiao never knew about it. When I went to help my mother, I didn't take her with me. I always went alone. "The little lady said with a smile.

The little lady wanted to talk to An Mujinduo, but someone came to her and said that there was no fish in the kitchen.

The Hou Mansion eats fish every year during the Chinese New Year, which means there is more than enough every year. Both the old lady and Lord Hou attach great importance to this.This year's kitchen is in charge of the little lady again, and this incident happened in the first year. It is obvious that someone wanted to make trouble for the little lady.

"Who is in charge of buying vegetables in the kitchen? Tell him to come and collect his wages, and he can leave today." The little lady said calmly, and then said to An Mujin: "Jin'er, go and get two taels of silver."

Seeing that the little lady really wanted to give money to leave, the man said quickly, "Don't be angry, little lady, I'll go to the kitchen and maybe I can still buy fish."

When the man left, the little lady smiled at An Mujin and said, "Jin'er, mother is too busy. Please sit down for a while, and I'll go to Qinxiangyuan to take a look."

"Mother, go ahead, I'll sleep here for a while." An Mujin said with a yawn.

An Mujin thought he was sleepy, but he lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. When he closed his eyes, he saw the numbers on the ledger.

Just feeling sleepy, Ruju ran over excitedly with something in her arms, "Miss, Xiao Wu is here."
