Delicate Flower Chapter 306: Accounts
Thinking of this, Pei Yan lost interest in talking.
His sister-in-law, no matter how her family treats her, she will always feel unfair and like she has been greatly wronged. This is no longer something that can be solved with money. What's more, no matter how much their family's possessions are, they can't all go to the eldest brother. He and his second brother are also from the same mother. How could the parents ignore the lives of the other two sons for the sake of the eldest son?
Mr. Yang prides herself on being smart, but she doesn't even understand this truth.
Pei Yan curled his lips, casually echoed Pei Laoan's words, and stood up to leave.
Pei Lao'an looked amused and said, "Go to Baoxia and have a look. Miss Yu is helping me settle the accounts there. If she doesn't understand something, you can give me some pointers. ”
Unstoppable joy emerged from Pei Yan's eyes.
"Thank you, Mom!" He was also shameless, saluted Pei Lao'an with a smile, and hurried to Baoxia.
Pei Lao'an chuckled and shook his head, thinking that when she saw her youngest son so alive, it was before he was ten years old. It's better now. The more he lives, the more he looks like a child. However, it was undeniable that he was really happy.
That's good.
Pei Lao'an turned her head and said to Aunt Chen who was serving beside her: "I didn't expect Yu's math skills to be really good. I think I can tell her to learn some Pythagorean techniques in the future. ”
This was Pei Laoan's hobby when she was a girl.
Aunt Chen had a headache after listening to it. She felt like it was a book from heaven. Miss Yu was really good at arithmetic. She could calculate the numbers in her mind just by looking at them. But people who are good at arithmetic may not be able to learn from Mr. Pei. What kind of Pythagorean technique is used to calm people down?
Thinking of this, Aunt Chen felt a little sympathetic to Miss Yu.
If Miss Yu is really pulled by Pei Lao'an to learn these things, and if she learns well, she will definitely become Pei Lao'an's heartache, and her status in the Pei family will be self-evident in the future. If you can't learn... then it's better not to do this!
But these words are not something she, a servant, can say.
Aunt Chen answered "Yes" with a smile.
Yutang is worried about the pile of account books in his hand.
Calculating accounts is the simplest, adding, adding, subtracting, she can figure it out without an abacus. But account books are different from accounting. She really doesn't know what to do with those eggs that cost five cents each and dried vegetables that cost fifteen cents each.
Yu Tang was scratching his head when Pei Yan came in.
She immediately stood up and rushed forward as if she had caught a savior. The chair behind her tripped over her and she didn't care. She looked at Pei Yan with shining eyes and said, "What are you doing?" Coming?"
Pei Yan looked at Yu Tang with a smile, feeling happy in his heart.
The little girl is still thinking about him, and he shouldn't leave her here just because he is embarrassed. Otherwise, he can hug people again... It should be okay, right?
Pei Yan thought of the elegant fragrance that once lingered on the tip of his nose... and his soft body...
The more I think about it, the better I feel.
His expression and voice softened involuntarily, and he said, "How have you been these past two days?"
In Yu Tang's imagination, a wealthy family like the Pei Mansion must have a lot that cannot be said. She really didn't know where the trap was, and she didn't want to fall into it before she got married. But Yu Tang had no intention of helping Pei Yan hide it - it was not her fault. Of course, whoever caused the trouble will take the blame.
"No!" Yu Tang said, pulling Pei Yan's sleeves and pushing him to sit on the chair in front of the desk, pointing to the account book above and saying, "Please help me see what is in this account book. Question."
There is no other way. Have you asked him for help?
Pei Yan still had a smile on his face and sat down obediently. While flipping through the account books, he said absently: "Why are you looking at the account books? What has Mom asked you to do in the past two days? You did it all. Is it over? Second sister-in-law didn’t help you?"
Yu Tang thought of the young ladies of the Pei family and Miss Yang who were happily picking mulberries in the back mountain, and then thought about what she had done in the past two days, she couldn't help but feel a bit of coquettish complaining in her voice. : "Lao An first asked me to accompany her to play leaf cards, and told me many anecdotes about the Pei family and the Pei family's in-laws. Later, she asked me to help Aunt Chen calculate the accounts of the Dragon Boat Festival. Then you can see Here we are," she pointed to a pile of account books on the table, "I came to say hello to Mr. Lao An today. Mr. Lao An kept me here again and moved all the account books from other hospitals over last year and asked me to make an inventory list. ." She pouted unconsciously, "The second wife also wanted to help me, but the second master sent someone to deliver a letter, asking the second wife to find the set of drinking utensils given by the Tao family a few years ago. He said he wanted to give it away. The second wife rushed back to Pei's house. I just wanted to find someone to ask, but I didn't know who to ask."
When she was annoyed, she thought with distress that maybe Pei Laoan was testing her.
But she really doesn't want to go through such a test.
Pei Yan felt that he came at the right time. He looked at Yu Tang tenderly and said softly: "Okay, let me help you take a look!"
His voice was originally very cold, but these words were said very softly, even with a hint of caress in Yu Tang's ears, making her heart feel like it was being ruffled by a feather, itching. I even took two deep breaths before I could breathe normally.
But Pei Yan smiled at her. That smile, like the summer sun, was so bright that it was hard to open her eyes, and it kept her from recovering for a long time.
By the time she came to her senses, Pei Yan had already flipped through half of the account book.
Yu Tang looked at Pei Yan suspiciously.
Didn't he realize there was something wrong with this account book?
Thoughts flashed across his mind, and Yu Tang opened his mouth wide.
She really shouldn't count on Pei Yan.
Who is Pei Yan? Who knows how much an egg costs or how much a handful of vegetables cost? How could he possibly find out about the problem in this account?
Should she tell him?
Yu Tang was angry.
I think Pei Yan should be informed.
It is one thing to give these buyers the opportunity to make money, but it is another thing to know whether they know the tricks involved.
Yu Tang simply stood next to him, pointed to one of the columns of the account book he opened and said: "Third Master, look at this! Ten water pears, two hundred and twenty coins, almost twenty-two coins each. It is only used for seasoning when cooking. If I remember correctly, the better water pears only cost fifteen cents each, and they are used to stew Sichuan clams when you have a cough. There is no need to buy such good pears for seasoning. At most, it’s only six or seven articles each.”
Pei Yan was very surprised. He looked at Yu Tang: "Do you often do these things at home?"
His expression was serious, which made Yu Tang intuitively feel that this matter was important. She hurriedly said: "Of course. When I was six or seven years old, I helped Mrs. Chen at home to settle accounts. I know almost all the prices in the market."
Pei Yan said "hmm" and his face became even worse. He said, "The family is big and everyone has everyone. You won't be able to do everything by yourself in the future. So when you look at these accounts, if there is not much difference, just It's better to turn a blind eye. If the difference is quite big, just pick out a few items and point them out. The most important thing is who occupies these positions? Then have you noticed that the accounts of our family are handled by the steward of the outer courtyard? Then the accounts involving the Inner Court are brought to the Inner Court for review."
Yu Tang didn’t know what to say and nodded blankly.
Pei Yan continued: "So the tricks on these accounts cannot be hidden from anyone. What you need to know is, who made these accounts? Who is responsible for purchasing? Who is responsible for purchasing? What exactly are these accounts? Is it because I don’t know the price and I was deceived? Or there are other accounts that are not clearly written in the account books that are spread out in these details..."
Yu Tang was very annoyed when she heard this. She said: "But I don't want to be in such trouble? Because I am the one who reviews these accounts in the end. If something goes wrong, I have to be responsible. I don't want to be responsible for other people's affairs."
Pei Yan was stunned, but then he laughed and said, "Then what are you going to do?"
Perhaps his smile was too broad, or his attitude was doting and indulgent that even he didn't know he had. Yu Tang was encouraged and became bolder, saying: "So That’s why I turned to you for help!”
Pei Yan raised his eyebrows, wondering in his mind whether Yu Tang was giving up his job, asking him to help speak in front of Pei Lao'an, or asking him to help bluff these twists and turns. After the man's servant gave him a lesson, Yu Tang said, "Please help me find a way to figure out what Lao An is going to do!"
This surprised Pei Yan even more.
Yu Tang said simply: "If Mr. Pei Laoan just wants me to help her settle the accounts, I will just use this account book and calculate that the total is correct. If Mr. Pei Laoan wants to teach someone a lesson by my hand, , please help me find a way to pass this matter on to the second wife. If that doesn’t work, you can also pass it on to the eldest wife!”
Anyway, the eldest wife and Pei Yan are at odds, so taking the blame is nothing.
Pei Yan laughed loudly and thought Yu Tang was really interesting. He couldn't help but said, "What are you going to do if I don't come?"
Yu Tang thought for a while and said: "I'm going to pretend that I don't know and just look at the account - I don't care about this. It's normal not to know the market price. ~IndoMTL.com~ Then I'll find an opportunity to talk to you Mention it."
Lest Pei Yan be regarded as a fool.
Pei Yan felt her unfinished words, and his brows softened. He said: "Are you afraid that I will be fooled?"
Really? !
Yu Tang hesitated to admit it.
Pei Yan suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile: "Then you can do it according to your own ideas."
Are her eye holes too small? !
She couldn't bear to be deceived like this.
But for Pei Yan, the water is clear and there is no fish. This is the lenient treatment of the Pei family to those loyal servants.
Yu Tang was a little frustrated.
Pei Yan asked her reluctantly: "What would you do if you were in charge?"
She was agitated by the question, so she had nothing nice to say to him, and said straightforwardly: "If I were the head of the family, these accounts would naturally have to be overturned and redone. How much money is sold on the market is what it is, so it's inconvenient. Those who do the accounting can just set up a separate project. If it is unclear, the people who check the accounts will be in a fog and cannot see clearly. As time goes by, the people who purchase the accounts will not be able to explain it clearly. So what is the point of auditing the accounts? ?"
