Rebirth of the original wife

Chapter 158

Li Wan walked into the room, Mrs. Liu was sitting at the table by the window, her brows were furrowed, and she was flipping through the account book in her hand. Mrs. Liu was frugal and had to review the account books every month. She walked over and read the books. There are dense marks on the eyes, and two colors have been used to outline them, and the handwriting is somewhat blurred. Li Wan thinks that Liu's strength is in the account books of the mansion. No matter how messy or difficult to read, She could figure it out just by guessing. The account books of the Hou Mansion are neatly made like books. After reading the account books of the Hou Mansion and then looking at the ones in Liu's hands, Li Wan was a little dizzy, "Mother..."

Li Wan yelled, the pen in Liu Shi's hand paused in fright, and it quickly dyed away, and the words written around her became a black mass, Liu raised her head, scolded Li Wan, lowered her head, and looked at it again. When writing the bookkeeping, the lady said that she had already visited the shop in the past two days, the location is good, it is in a busy city, there are many people, and it will pay back soon.

Li Wan was amused, Zi Lan had moved a stool from the side and put it beside Mrs. Liu, Li Wan sat down, leaned forward, and looked at the account book, "Mother, is there not enough money in the house? "Her memory is good, only when the money is not enough, Liu will make a new account book, cross out all the things that can not be used in the previous account book, copy it again and then continue to count until the expenses of the house are included in her budget. within that amount.

Mrs. Liu glanced at her and asked, "Have you visited the shop I gave you? The location is not very good, so you can rent it out or do some small business by yourself. Although you are rich, the shop cannot Do you know if you are free?"

Li Wan nodded, and talked about Ziqing's matter. The Liu family is now cold-hearted towards the Liu family, and she no longer hides Ziqing's affairs from the Liu family, "I think my cousin really has some affection for her. I asked Ziqing to help me tidy up the shop, my cousin got the news and talked to Ziqing specifically, and gave Ziqing a bracelet, mother, guess what kind of bracelet it is?"

She pretended to be profound, Liu paused, stared at her, and sighed, "It's just that a servant can reward me with a very precious bracelet. Your cousin is already a relative, and he likes Ziqingzi." Qing also has to wait for the lady from Wendinghou's Mansion to pass through the door!"

She also thought of Liu Jinyuan asking her about Ziqing selling her life contract, and she disagreed, "If your cousin's current behavior is discovered by the Wendinghou Mansion, there will be trouble!" Liu Jinyuan just took care of his low official position, and if something happened in the future, the Liu family would be finished.

Li Wan smiled mysteriously, and said, "Mother, the bracelet my cousin gave to Ziqing is very similar to the one on my aunt's wrist before. Tell me, what does cousin mean?" The bracelet on Fang's wrist was given by Lin , it can be regarded as a family heirloom of the Liu family, and Liu Jinyuan worked hard to find a similar one from nowhere. Moreover, the texture, smoothness and brightness are even better than the one on Fang's wrist.

Mrs. Liu was shocked, put down her pen, and said brokenly, "Your cousin can't carry it clearly. The jade bracelet on your aunt's wrist has already been sent to Wendinghou's mansion when she was hired. If Ziqing is taken by Wendinghou The people in the mansion found out, and you can see what's going on when you go out and talk about it!" Liu Shi also knew that she was worrying unnecessarily, and now that the two families live like that, what can she do, and glanced at Li Wan, "Zi Where is the maid Qing, she tried to sell it, don’t think I feel sorry for your cousin, there are many twists and turns here, the people in Wendinghou’s mansion must be dissatisfied with your cousin and the others if they find out, but they come to their senses , you are Ziqing's master, and if you think about it deeply, you might think that you have let Ziqing find fault with Wendinghou's mansion. Besides, you are already married. If others tell you and your cousin, what will happen to your reputation? What should I do? That maidservant Ziqing sold her immediately, and as for your cousin, I wonder if anyone can tell him something, even if he wants to mess around, we have to wait until we get married!"

What Liu said was reasonable and well-founded, Li Wan stopped her, "Mother, I understand, but now we can't do without her in the shop, I'm worried that one day my cousin's matter will be found out by Wendinghou's mansion and it will be blamed on me I want to ask my mother to ask Ziqing to come back to stay for two days, just say that you are not feeling well, and she will bring me back to serve you, and if there is anything else in the future, she will be considered as someone by your side..." Li Wan did not intend to let Ziqing return It's only when the Hou's mansion is gone, that's why he told Liu Shi like this.

Liu Shi thought that this method would work, then she blamed Li Wan again and said, "If I really feel unwell, can you find a servant girl?"

Li Wan shook her head with a solemn expression, "Mother, you will live a long life, and your second and third brothers are still waiting for you to marry them!"

Speaking of marrying a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu regained her spirits and told the truth, "The young master of Xia's family got married the day before yesterday. I met a lady. We talked about saving money. That lady's natal family is in Beijing. But a well-known businessman, I talked with her for a long time before she agreed with me to do business with her. My mother doesn't have much money. If she wants to buy a shop, it is definitely not enough. She is willing to pay for her sister-in-law with me. I bought it at a low price from a dowry shop, and the reason why her sister-in-law sold it was because her sister-in-law was going to the south with her brother, and she would return to Beijing less frequently, so she was worried that the shopkeeper would be dishonest, so she wanted to buy the shop, and took the money Go to the south and buy another one, no, is it a good thing that I caught up with it?"

Liu's eyes were burning, as if gold and silver had been piled up in front of her, but Li Wan frowned. Although Xia's family background was not high, the guests invited were all well-known in Beijing, but anyone who was an official in Beijing Wouldn't even marry a businessman as his regular wife, so he asked doubtfully, "Mother, are you being cheated?"

Mrs. Liu put on a straight face, "What are you talking about, isn't your mother such a deceitful person? I found out at the banquet that day that her husband is indeed an official in the court, and he is not in the same department as your father, and his official position is also low. , but people are really easy to talk about!"

Mrs. Liu thought that she had already seen the shop, and told the customers how to do business and how to do business.

The more Li Wan heard it, the more frightened she became, not to mention the prices of the shops in the downtown area, but most of them have backers behind them. The Hou Mansion has several shops in the downtown area. Have you made a contract?" You can't rely on a small official of the fifth or sixth grade. If you meet a big family to buy your shop, you will have no ability to struggle. If Mrs. Liu signs a contract with that lady, you will either be cheated or will Offend.
