"Sister Ran, I called you here today mainly to give you the account book."

As she said that, the old lady patted the books stacked up beside her hands, "But there is one thing I want to make clear first. The Xiao family sent you here, so I am naturally responsible for you."

"According to the logic, all the Xiao family's shops and Zhuangzi should be handed over to you, but after all, you are still young and inexperienced, so I gave them all to you at once. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be a big deal? "

"So I thought and thought, as for the ledger, you can take it all and look at it, it's just for learning, but for the rest, I'll give you a part, and I'll take care of the rest for you first."

Hearing this, Xiao Ziran was not surprised.

If the old lady gave it all to her today, she would feel terrified.

The other party came here for the property of the Xiao family, how could he let go so easily.

Knowing that there is still a tough battle to be fought, Xiao Ziran took a deep breath and smiled softly, "It's still my grandmother who is thoughtful."

Xiao Ziran was relieved to be able to take back part of the family property from the old lady.Although not all of them, at least I have more capital, and I will have more confidence in the Gu family in the future.

"Grandmother, you are a reasonable person. I know that you will not take the property and shops belonging to the Xiao family."

Putting on a soft hat, looking at the old lady's stiff smile, Xiao Ziran only felt that his body and mind were unobstructed.

"It's good that you understand, it's not in vain." The old lady immediately held Xiao Ziran's hand.

"Hey, that said, I almost forgot something." Xiao Ziran grabbed the old lady's hand with his backhand and looked directly at her, "Grandma, I remember I brought some porcelain, ancient books and so on when I came here. In addition, there are some jewelry, grandma, you know, these things are the last things left to me by my parents, and my brother, I was reluctant to throw them away when I was in Taiyuan, and brought them here from far away."

"So, grandma, can you move things to my yard for the sake of my parents? This way, I can feel relieved when I see you every day."

After finishing speaking, without giving the old lady a chance to speak, she continued: "By the way, there was still a list at the time, and I don't know where to put it, but grandma, don't worry, I still have a backup on hand. will be wrong."

In a hurry, the old lady was dragged here, and the old lady twitched her mouth, "I'll let Nanny Gu arrange it in a while, and send it to you tomorrow at the latest."

"Hey, grandma is so kind."

After finishing speaking, he hugged the old lady, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"Grandma, then I will be late. Thanks to your care, I can share the burden with my grandma when I clear up the books and business in my hand."

"When the time comes, grandma just needs to enjoy herself well."

The old lady understood the meaning of Xiao Ziran's words, smiled and took a sip of tea.

"I'll ask the housekeeper to deliver these ledgers to you in a while, so you don't have to take them yourself." The old lady arranged.

"Grandmother is really thoughtful."

Xiao Ziran used to think that he would not be able to use such hypocritical things, but he did not expect that he is proficient in using them now.

When Xiao Ziran returned to Xiyuan, the butler had already returned the ledger.

The butler belongs to the old lady, and even the elder and the eldest madam would give him face on weekdays.

While looking at the account book, Xiao Ziran roughly calculated in his mind. According to the old lady's intention, the people who came to Bianjing City with her, except for some insignificant little Luo Luo, seemed to have survived.

I just don't know if it's artificial or not, subconsciously, Xiao Ziran didn't want to think of people as bad.

Sending the housekeeper away, together with Xiaoyu, she coded the ledger on the table in her room, and then ordered Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, take a pen and paper, and grind it for me."

"Yes, miss." Xiaoyu replied, and immediately went to get the pen, paper and inkstone, stood aside and began to grind ink.

Xiao Ziran opened the thick ledger and began to reconcile the accounts. In her previous life, she was a science student. Later, she also learned some accounting and financial knowledge for several cases. She never expected to use it at this time.

Xiao Ziran quickly wrote down the profit and loss of each account on a blank piece of paper. She didn't put down the pen until it was almost time for dinner for a whole day.

"Strange..." Xiao Ziran murmured to the ledger, "This ledger..."

Several shops in Bianjing City are actually at a loss, and the loss is not small, only one or two are slightly profitable.

How can this be?

If the business is so bad, why did you keep the shop here in the first place?This is totally illogical.

Then there is only one possibility, the ledger, has been tampered with.

"Little fish, go and call the housekeeper."

She wants to see how much trickery there is behind this, thinking that in less than a month, all the things that the original body brought from Xiao's house have been replaced inside, Xiao Ziran finds it funny.

Do these people really think she is as easy to bully as the original owner?

Soon, the housekeeper came along with Xiaoyu, "Miss Biao, what do you want me to tell you?"

"I won't beat around the bush, just say it straight." Xiao Ziran said bluntly, "I'm afraid the amount in this ledger is not right?"

"Why did Miss Biao say that?"

"What? Am I right?"

"Naturally." The housekeeper took it for granted, "Could it be that Miss Biao still doesn't believe in the old lady?"

Use the old lady to suppress her?

Xiao Ziran sneered and let people go down directly.

Early the next morning, Xiao Ziran packed up and went straight to Rong Le Hall.

"Grandmother."

"Well, come on, this account book, how is it?"

"It's okay, my mother taught me some things when she was alive." Xiao Ziran smiled, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the old lady's words, while touching the bracelet on his wrist, he said casually: "That's right. Occasionally it’s a little overwhelming.”

If the housekeeper hadn't come to see her last night, she would have believed her words.

The old lady took a sip of her tea, feeling a little pity in her heart. If only their Gu family's daughter was so good, it would be worthwhile to spend a little effort to marry her into a noble family, and it would do no harm to the Gu family.

"Don't worry, I told you before that it is difficult to manage the shop and the account book. After all, you are young and inexperienced, so just take your time."

"By the way, grandma, I want to go out of the house in two days, and go to those shops today."

As soon as the words were finished, the old lady's face turned black, and she refused without thinking: "No."

"why?"

"Which family have you ever seen a lady of a family show up in public at will, especially for such vulgar things as silver?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ziran almost didn't laugh out loud, this was an excuse...

"Grandmother, did you remember it wrong? My surname is Xiao, not Gu." As he spoke, Xiao Ziran smiled, "Besides, I don't think there is anything shameful about Yin Zi."

The old lady didn't expect that Xiao Ziran would directly embarrass her, and her face became more and more ugly at the moment.

There was a sound of "Bang Dang!", and the old lady threw her teacup to the ground angrily, and the wreckage of the plate lay powerlessly on the ground.
