Twilight leaves song waiting for you to return

Chapter 688

Li Ge actually didn't want to meet a man with a family, he just came here this time to pay back the courtesy, by the way, he inquired about the situation of the family, and after exchanging pleasantries for a while, he got up and left.

"Ma'am! Butler Lin said just now that his master opened an antique shop in Dongshi. Isn't that a rich man? No wonder the furnishings in their house look very expensive!" Xiaohua whispered as she walked.

Li Ge laughed, Xiao Hua didn't see those things in Shangliu's house, if she really knew the origin and value of those things, she would be even more surprised.

Back in the mansion, Feng'er has been sent to the private school in the neighborhood by Zhong Yuan, and Xiang'er is playing with some flowers and plants in her yard.

Li Ge saw that the weather was fine, so he asked Xiao Hua to prepare tea-making supplies in the kiosk in the lotus pond, and took out the ledgers of all the shops in Shangliu's.

There are a total of twelve pharmacies in Shangliu's, and most of them are located in the less lively areas of the West Market. After all, the overall operating conditions are very average, probably only able to maintain the operation of the pharmacy and the expenses of the family.

No wonder there are only Zhong Ma's family and Xiao Hua's four servants in such a big house in the Shang Mansion.

Shangliu's account books should be a bit beyond their means.

Maybe they would pawn off the priceless antiques in the house from time to time, and then maintain the family's expenses.

Li Ge frowned and carefully looked at the accounts of the twelve pharmacies, always feeling that something was wrong.

She sighed, since she was living as someone else, she had to help Shang Liu to clean up the mess in her hands.

So she called Mama Zhong and asked, "When do I usually meet with the shopkeepers of these pharmacies?"

Mother Zhong thought for a while, "When Master was alive, he would invite shopkeepers to drink at the Orchid Wine Shop in West Market at the end of every month. Don't go to any wine shop anymore, let Lao Zhongtou give them a little silver on your behalf, it's considered wine money..."

No wonder the number on the business book is getting less and less. The boss himself is too lazy to meet with the shopkeeper, so there will naturally be more and more pockets.

Li Ge frowned and thought for a while: "Now I don't want to invite them to some wine shop, you ask Lao Zhong to inform them that they will all come to the house in three days, and I want to meet them!"

Mama Zhong looked at her in surprise, nodded and said, "I'll ask Old Zhong to inform them immediately!"

Now it seems that the antiques in Shangliu's house should have been left by her deceased husband-in-law.

It is definitely not an ordinary person who can go to a place where the Orchid Wine Shop spends money like water to drink!

It's just that women like Zhong Ma and Shang Liu's are living in boudoirs, so they don't know how expensive the Orchid Restaurant is, a place where young and beautiful orchids are served.

Li Ge didn't intend to restore the rules of the shopkeeper when he was alive, but he couldn't close his eyes and let the shopkeepers occupy the magpie's nest!

Xiang'er heard that Li Ge was making tea in the pavilion, so she also ran over, and sat quietly next to Li Ge to drink tea, looking like a lady of every family.

Li Ge looked at her slightly precocious appearance, and couldn't help asking: "Xiang'er! You also know that my mother has been severely injured this time, and I basically don't remember anything from the past. Can you tell me about your father? What about when you were alive?"

As soon as the word "father" was mentioned, Xiang'er's expression immediately became silent.
