pungent peasant girl

Chapter 66

"Huh? Are you serious?"

Meng Qianyan nodded affirmatively, "Mother, this matter is not a trivial matter, how can my daughter-in-law talk nonsense, my daughter-in-law really found that there is something wrong with the third aunt."

"Your third aunt, you are more thoughtful. I have noticed it these years. However, there is a precedent for the fourth bedroom. The third bedroom should not have the courage to deal with moths. And The Luo family has used the accounting office for more than ten years, and it is still a reliable person."

Wu-shi calmed down and analyzed, "However, your third aunt has been coming to my place very frequently. In the past few days, I really haven't seen her much."

"What does mother mean? Do you want to check this account?"

Mrs. Wu thought for a while, and there was a hint of caution in her eyes, "The accounts of the family are not trivial, and they should not be taken lightly. If you are like this, go and ask someone to call the accountant, and I will talk to him."

"Yes." Meng Qianyan went out in response and called Dong'er to call the accountant.

The accountant's surname is Zhang Mingxing, who looks to be about 50 to [-] years old, and his figure is also slightly blessed. When he arrived at Wu's place, he respectfully saluted Wu and Meng Qianyan.

"Eldest Madam, Second Young Madam."

"Well, there's no need to be too polite, please sit down in the accountant Zhang." At some point, Wu Shi had put on a small face and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Ma'am." Zhang Xing found a chair and sat down, cautiously, "Madam, you haven't found the young one for a long time, why did you find the young one here today? Is there something wrong?"

Wu smiled helplessly, "Hey, it's fine, isn't it Ziyan who is already married? The new generation of our Luo family also has a mistress. It's a pity that Qianyan is young and has to take care of many things at home. I can't get up, and I can't even figure out the accounts at home. So, I thought, let the accountant take the second young lady with him."

Meng Qianyan understood the purpose of Wu's words, so he continued obediently, "Oh, mother, I'm too stupid, will this cause Zhang Zhang trouble?"

"No, no, no." Zhang Xing waved his hands again and again, "How could it be? The second young lady of our family has a bright face, so she must be able to learn it quickly."

"Really?" Meng Qianyan showed a naive face, "Then I will go to the accounting room to see how our family's accounts are recorded and calculated."

"Okay, the little one will tidy up the counting room and ask the second young lady to come over."

"Hey, what do you need to tidy up? Isn't the accounting room just a little messy?" Mrs. Wu smiled, "Old Zhang, you don't need to tidy up. Let's take Qianyan over there today to have a look."

After Mrs. Wu spoke, Zhang Xing couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to agree, "Well, then young lady, or else I'll go and have a look now."

"Okay, then I'll go now."

Meng Qianyan talked to Mrs. Wu, and followed Zhang Xing to the accountant's side.

The counting house is in a courtyard of the Luo family. This house is not only the counting house, but also the warehouse of the Luo family. The warehouse must be strictly guarded, the gate is locked tightly, and there are four guards guarding it.

"Okay, Second Young Madam, this is it." With a click, Zhang Xing opened the door, and Meng Qianyan turned his head to look in, only to see stacks of accounts densely packed inside.

She was really surprised, "Zhang Accountant, why are there so many accounts?"

"Hehe, second young lady, don't you understand? I have recorded every account of our Luo family in detail. There are daily accounts, monthly accounts, annual accounts, and the annual expenses of each young lady and master. I recorded everything clearly." Zhang Xing said this with a little complacency in his eyes.

Meng Qianyan turned a blind eye on purpose, and sat down on a chair, "What about this month's accounts? Can you show me the accounting room?"

"Okay." Zhang Xing flipped through it and found a thick account book, "Second Young Madam, this is the book, take a look."

Meng Qianyan opened the account book, and sure enough, as the line said, every account was clearly recorded, and it can be said that everything was detailed.

But because it was too detailed, she couldn't tell at a glance whether the accounts were completely correct.

Thinking of this, Meng Qianyan became suspicious of Zhang Xing.

"How is it? Second Young Madam, can you still understand?"

"Understood, isn't this Sister's? There are also Zifu and Ziqu, Zixian, Ziyin." Meng Qianyan muttered, reading the final numbers at the end one by one.

It's strange that Luo Ziting spent the most money.

But in her impression, although Luo Ziting was arrogant and mean, he was not a person who liked extravagance.

Looking at this account book like this, I can't see any problems at all, but after careful analysis, I feel that many things are wrong.

She looked up at Zhang Xing, only to see that Zhang Xing was smiling and very calm.

"What's the matter? Young Madam, there is no problem with this account, right?"

"Oh, no, but I want to study this method of bookkeeping again. For other accounts, can I open them to see if I start business?"

"Of course it's fine, Second Young Madam can look at it as she pleases."

"Well, then I'll take a look here. It's good for Zhang Zhang to go about his own business."

"That's fine. When the second young lady leaves, she must lock the door before leaving."

Zhang Xing explained a few words, and then walked out of the accountant's door, he was so calm that he couldn't see any sign of guilty conscience.

After he left, Meng Qianyan took out the abacus from the drawer, and calculated line by line according to the accounts in the account book.She didn't believe it anymore. Don't you need to record all the valuables in Sanfang?How could it be that Luo Ziting painted the most money?

She did the calculations for two full hours. She calculated all the accounts for the past three months, but in the end, there was really no problem at all, and all the accounts were correct.

She couldn't figure it out more and more. She stood up and took a few steps in the room. She saw that there were still many old accounts standing on the bookcase. They were all neatly arranged. Could it be that she was wrong or that she was too suspicious ?

At this time, Zhang Xing's voice sounded outside, "Second Young Madam? How is it? Are you tired? Do you want to rest for a while, I just saw that Second Young Master has returned."

"Oh, that's right, then I should go back." Meng Qianyan smiled, "I really disturbed the accountant today."

"It's okay, it's okay, the eldest lady has said it, and the second young lady is the mistress of the Luo family."

After a few polite words with Zhang Xing, Meng Qianyan left the courtyard and returned to Jingxuan Building.Indeed, Luo Ziyan had already returned, he didn't know where he was going, he wasn't tired at all, he was just putting on his homely clothes and taking a nap on the recliner.

Seeing his leisurely look, Meng Qianyan felt a little unhappy, "Hmph, you are very leisurely, I was exhausted this afternoon."

Hearing this, Luo Ziyan sized her up with a smile that wasn't a smile, "What's the matter? What is Madam up to?"
