This is Qiao Ning's third visit to Li's old house. Every time she feels gloomy, this time she wins even more.
Mrs. Li was sitting on the sofa, and Zhong Qing was standing beside her. While drinking tea slowly, she casually swept Qiao Ning from the corner of her eyes.
Every time the corner of his eye swept Qiaoning, Qiaoning felt his hair horrified.
"Madam, the madam has brought me here." Midai broke the silence.
Zhong Qing smiled and said, "Sister Midai, it’s been a long time since I heard. Brother Chengyan said that you helped him go abroad. Sister Midai is getting more and more beautiful. When I returned to China, I brought a gift for Sister Midai. Wait for a while. Give it to Sister Midi."
"Thank you Miss Zhong." Midai said quickly.
Mrs. Li said, "Cheng Yan asked you to follow, because I was afraid that I would bully this girl! I'm so worried, I'm not going to deliberately make a girl who doesn't know anything. Now that I'm here, I'll take a look at the account book first. It’s the things used at the party and all the expenses. Check the account to see if it is correct and if there is any discrepancy with the account book."
After Mrs. Li finished speaking, she gave Zhong Qing a wink and asked Zhong Qing to give Qiao Ning the ledger.
Qiao Ning quickly took it over, wondering if it's that simple, just reconciliation
"Just check the account here! The servant will take you to the study. Don't take this account book out, don't take photos casually, you can't leak it." Mrs. Li exhorted again.
Qiao Ning nodded, and went to the room arranged by the servant for her with Midai.
Qiao Ning originally thought that Mrs. Li would arrange for her a shabby and old room without windows to torture her. But I didn't expect it to be a study room, and it looks very good.
Midai looked at it and said, "This room is not bad."
"Yes, it's weird, why didn't you toss me." Qiao Ning asked curiously.
This is really not like Mrs. Li's style. Is it possible that she made tricks on the ledger
Qiao Ning quickly flipped through the ledger and looked at it roughly, but he didn't see anything wrong.
"Boom boom boom, Sister Midai." Zhong Qing called sweetly, knocking on the door.
Midi smiled immediately: "Miss Zhong."
"Sister Midai, this is a gift I brought to you, I hope you like it." Zhong Qing gave her a gift that was actually a bottle of perfume.
Midai smiled and said, "Thank you Miss Zhong, I like this taste very much."
"That's good, I won't bother you to read the books. But sister Qiaoning, auntie said it's best for you to read it yourself, and she still wants you to ask questions. But if you don't know anything, you can ask me or Midai Sister, Sister Midai is very powerful." Zhong Qing smiled and said to Qiao Ning again.
Qiao Ning nodded serenely.
After Zhong Qing left, she sighed. Seeing Zhong Qing's face filled with enthusiasm, it was really difficult for her to connect the person who stabbed her in the back with her.
"You have a good relationship with Zhong Qing!" Qiao Ning said.
Midai said: "She is Mr. Zhong Moqian's sister, and she has always loved Mr. Li. Naturally, she is very pleased with the people around Mr. Li. But there is one thing that she does well. No matter how much she doesn't like each other, she can smile. Welcome. Look, bring me a gift. In fact, I hate me to death in my heart."
"Ah, she hates you? Why?" Qiao Ning was curious.
Midai smiled, blinked and said, "The reason is the same as you, but she doesn't ask directly like you. Instead, she keeps guessing that human nature is like this. She always likes to guess and guess, and that's how many unnecessary things are. Guessed it."
"So, what you mean is, is she a person with inconsistent appearances and swords?" Qiao Ning asked immediately.
Midai smiled without saying a word. She was very cautious about this and would not comment on the right and wrong of others easily.
Qiao Ning curled his lips silently, picked up the ledger and looked at it.
Midai asked again: "Do you need my help?"
Qiao Ning shook his head: "I can still understand this. After all, I have gone to college. Even if I am not majoring in accounting, simple books are fine."
"That's good. Actually, I don't really want to help you. Since Mrs. Li wants you to look at the books, you will definitely be asked about the details. If I help you, it will actually be bad for you. Take your time. , I'll go out for a cup of coffee first." Midai said.
Qiao Ning nodded and waved her to leave, looking through the ledger seriously.
These ledgers do not look complicated, the number of people invited, the ingredients and items needed for the day. Because it was held in the old house of the Li family, I also specially invited a few chefs to help. All the items are clearly listed. There is no need to worry about it, just check them one by one.
She really didn't know what use Mrs. Li asked her to do with this ledger. Is it really just for her to learn
That really means that the sun has come out to the west. Could it be that Mrs. Li finally figured it out and is willing to accept her
"Drink some water!" someone said behind him.
Qiao Ning thought it was a servant, and said without raising his head: "Let it go here! Thank you."
"You don't have to be so tired, in fact, this ledger has nothing to look at." The man behind him said again.
Qiao Ning was surprised, turned his head and looked behind him.
"Why are you?" Qiao Ning asked in astonishment.
Unexpectedly, it was not the servant who gave her water, but Yan Su who had never seen each other since last time.
Yan Su smiled and said, "Why, are you surprised to see me?"
Qiao Ning turned around and lay down on the chair and said, "Of course it's surprising, why are you here?"
Yan Su shrugged and said, "Every rich person has to have one or two capable poor relatives around him. Some things are not convenient for outsiders to do, and they are always more reliable than outsiders."
"Uh, so... Mrs. Li asked you to do something?"
Yan Su nodded: "The family dinner is about to come, so there are a lot of things that need manpower. Anyway, I'm fine, so I just came to help. I come to help every year, and it’s a bit of experience. If you don’t know something, you can also ask. I."
"I only look at the ledger, and I don't understand anything." Qiao Ning said.
Yan Su nodded and glanced at her ledger. When she saw a set of data, she couldn't help frowning, and asked in confusion: "This crystal cup is gone! Why is it still written on it?"
"Ah, what crystal cup." Qiao Ning asked in surprise.
Yan Su pointed to the above set of data and said: "This crystal cup was brought back by Mrs. Li from the UK the year before, and I liked it very much, but last year, a child from a relative’s family broke one. This is a set. The broken one was discarded. Last year, my wife asked me to put it away and put it in the warehouse. I don’t know why it was written again this year. I shouldn’t use this set. Has it been added? I heard that These are all unique, and the price to make up is even greater. It would be better to get a new one."
"Ah, then should I talk to Mrs. Li?" Qiao Ning said.
Yan Su embarrassedly said: "Go and check first! If you really fill it up, Mrs. Li will probably not be happy that I told you this. Even more so, if you don't know the situation, just listen to me and tell her. This kind of undesirable thing."
"Yes, do you know where the warehouse is? Let's go and see before deciding." Qiao Ning said.
Yan Su nodded and led her upstairs quietly. The warehouse where things are stored is the attic upstairs, where valuables are stored.
