sweet wife little confused

Chapter 119

After shopping, An Xiu'er hurried home. She was worried that if Zhang Zhen'an came back early, she would not be able to see her. She thought that every time he came home, he would be able to see her immediately.

However, she came back a bit early, Zhang Zhenan was busy outside and didn't come back, but the maid in the yard told her that the old lady was looking for her.

Wu Clan hasn't come to see her for a long time, but when she suddenly heard Wu Clan's name, An Xiu'er felt a little scared. Why would Wu Clan seek her when he has nothing to do?
Is it because she went out today?So come to trouble her?
An Xiu'er carefully thought about her recent behavior, except for going out, she didn't think there was anything inappropriate, anyway, it wasn't a big deal, so she didn't think about it, and went to the courtyard where Wu family lived together with Ban Xia went.

When she came to the yard with Zhang Zhen'an before, she went in smoothly every time. This time she came alone and asked the maid guarding the door to help her to report, but the maid said that Mrs. Wu was on a lunch break.

An Xiu'er looked up at the sky, it seemed to be a little late, anyway, it didn't look like it was time for a lunch break, but since she said it was a lunch break, let's take a lunch break.

"Since the old lady is on her lunch break, then I won't bother you." An Xiu'er didn't know how long she would have to wait here, thinking that Mrs. Wu happened to be on her lunch break, so she might as well leave first. Even if Mrs. Wu asked later, She can also be said to have been here.

But before she took two steps, the servant girl behind her stopped her and said, "Miss An, are you unwilling to wait even for a while? When Miss Ye came to our yard, the old lady sometimes took a lunch break. She Been waiting for hours."

"Oh, that's right, that's Miss Ye, not me. If I stand at this door, the old lady will feel that there are people waiting here, and I won't be able to sleep well." An Xiu'er said, still wanting to leave.

"Wait a minute, I'll report to you." The servant girl said to her angrily, opened the curtain and went in, she came out after a while, and said: "The old lady is awake and washing up, just wait a moment. "

An Xiu'er could only stop in her tracks, thinking in her heart that the old lady had been dressed up for some time. At this time, the setting sun happened to shine on the corridor. Standing in the corridor and waiting, it was still very stuffy.

"I just said that the old lady knew that I was waiting here, so she couldn't even sleep well. Look, she just woke up." An Xiu'er said something to the servant girl.

The servant girl smiled dryly and ignored her.

An Xiu'er then asked: "How long does it usually take for the old lady to dress up? It won't be because I'm standing here that her dressing up will take longer, right?"

"The length of time the old lady dresses up has nothing to do with you, so don't think too much about it." The servant girl's voice was a little cold: "Miss An, please wait patiently."

"I'll just ask casually." An Xiu'er rolled her eyes, looked around the yard, and didn't say any more.

There is a small garden in Wu's yard, but it's a pity it's not big. She walked around the garden and looked at it again and again, but there was no servant girl to inform her. She knew it was Wu's intention. He didn't care about giving her a badass, and simply asked Ban Xia to come over with a pair of scissors and pick up flower branches in the garden.

Seeing An Xiuer's action, the servant girl was startled, "What are you doing?"

"I'll pick some flowers for the old lady." An Xiu'er raised her head, with a sincere look on her face, and said, "The old lady just got up, if I see me, I can send a bouquet of pretty flowers." Give her flowers, she will be happy."

"This is the old lady's favorite Phalaenopsis!" Seeing An Xiu'er's serious eyes, the servant girl's tone became more and more serious.

"Ah, this is really the old lady's favorite Phalaenopsis? That's great, I have to pick more. When the old lady asks, I won't forget your contribution. I will definitely be in front of her. Praise you." An Xiu'er glanced at the flower in her hand, with a happy face, and picked up the scissors to cut it.

Hearing An Xiu'er's words, this servant girl panicked a little. If the old lady mistakenly thought that she asked her to cut her favorite flowers, then she would be in trouble.

"I didn't ask you to cut this flower." The servant girl said quickly, "Stop quickly, the old lady doesn't like others to cut her flower branches."

"Ah, why didn't you say it earlier, you clearly saw me cutting the flowers, but you watched me cut them off, you little girl has something wrong with her mind." An Xiu'er said angrily.

This servant girl really couldn't argue, "Miss An, wait here for a while, don't touch the flowers here, I'll go and see if the old lady's grooming is done."

"Then I will trouble you." An Xiuer waved her hand at the maid, and looked down at the flower in her hand, but saw that the flower was shaped like a butterfly, and smelled it closely, there was a faint fragrance, worthy of being the orchid of a gentleman among flowers .

I didn't expect Wu Shi to like orchids, but it's a pity that she doesn't have the character of Youlan.

"Okay, Miss An, our old lady let you in." After a while, the servant girl came out to inform.

An Xiu'er smiled slightly, if it wasn't for the bouquet of flowers in her hand, she might have to wait a while longer, so she walked in with the bouquet of flowers.

Sitting on a carved soft couch, Wu Shi was holding an exquisite jade cup with tea in her plain hand. She wanted to ignore An Xiu'er for a while, but when she saw the flowers in her hand, her expression changed .

"Who allowed you to pick those flowers in my garden?" Wu Shi put down the teacup and looked at An Xiu'er with disgust and anger.

"I think these flowers are beautiful, so I picked some specially for you." An Xiu'er held up her words very calmly.

"Who allowed you to pick these flowers?" Seeing An Xiu'er like this, Wu Shi was already extremely angry. Her favorite orchid finally bloomed, and she herself was reluctant to touch it, but was caught by this savage woman. Picked it up.

"Aren't you allowed to pick the flowers in your yard?" An Xiu'er asked suspiciously.

"Of course!" Every time Wu glanced at the flowers in An Xiu'er's hand from the corner of her eye, she felt angry in her heart. This dead girl really took advantage of her son's power to act recklessly here, even daring to pick her own flowers down.

"I heard that mother, you like this Phalaenopsis orchid the most, so you picked it." An Xiu'er looked a little timid when she saw it like this.

"I like it, but I like the ones that grow on the branches, not the ones you pluck."

"Isn't this the same? Others have said that there are flowers that can be broken straight away. Don't wait for no flowers to be broken. The flowers I chose are also in full bloom. If you don't pick them, it will be so beautiful in a few days." The flowers have to wither, I picked them, you can put them in a vase, spray some water from time to time, maybe you can keep them for a few more days.”

An Xiu'er looked around in Wu Shi's room as she spoke, and saw a delicate vase on the table beside her.

She handed the flower to Pinellia beside her, and asked her to help insert it. After the flower was inserted, Wu took a look over there, and had to admit that with this flower, her house was indeed more beautiful. It's a bit colorful, but these are all thanks to the flowers and have nothing to do with An Xiu'er.

She would not like this girl, she even ordered the girls around her not to call Mrs. An Xiu'er, she refused to admit that she was Zhang Zhenan's wife from the bottom of her heart.

"Last time you said you could read some characters, but does it count?" Wu Shi asked.

"A little bit." An Xiu'er said modestly.

"Since I can, then I will show you the account book of the mansion. This is what the mistress of the family must learn. I was in charge of it before, and I will always leave this matter to you in the future."

As Wu clapped his hands, someone soon brought a stack of ledgers.

"This is the account book for the past few months. You should read it as soon as possible, and tell me if there are any mistakes. This matter is the most important thing. Since you want to be my son's wife, you must know how to manage accounts. If you If you do well, I can hand over the housekeeping to you." Wu Shi said lightly.

Wu's family thought that An Xiu'er would be moved, but in fact An Xiu'er didn't feel the power of the housekeeper at all. She thought that she was doing well now, and when she saw this account book, she even looked embarrassed.

Seeing her expression, Wu Shi smiled coldly in his heart, scaring An Xiu'er away was Wu's first move, even if he couldn't scare her away, it would give her a headache.

As Wu Shi expected, An Xiuer's head was dizzy when she saw these ledgers. In the end, she didn't know how she took over the ledger from Wu Shi, and she didn't know how she stepped out of the courtyard.

Seeing An Xiu'er's voice as dead ashes, Ban Xia was a little worried, and asked in a low voice: "Ma'am, what's wrong with you?"

"What do I think of so many ledgers?" An Xiu'er casually flipped through them, and there were a lot of tiny characters written on them, and she felt bad looking at them.

"Ma'am, don't worry, these ledgers look very thick, but they don't actually record anything, and they are usually not wrong, so you can just look at them casually." Ban Xia reassured.

"But she said that if she does a good job, she can give me the power of housekeeper. Although I have no interest in this power of housekeeper, I can't perform too badly." An Xiuer glanced sideways at Ban Xia, Sighed, no more words.

Back in her yard, she concentrated on reading the ledger, good guy, she doesn't understand other things, but she can understand the book about purchasing ingredients, but she finds it strange no matter how she reads it. The cabbage in the county town costs five cents a catty?This shit is too expensive. When she was in the village, cabbage was only a penny a catty.

"Ban Xia, do we have a Zhuangzi that specializes in producing vegetables?"

"Of course there is. Not only do we produce vegetables, we almost don't need to buy chicken, duck and fish. They have them in Zhuangzi, and they will send the freshest ingredients every day."
