Song Wanqing injured his shoulder and had a cut on his waist. He couldn't learn martial arts, so he never went to the palace to fight.
In a blink of an eye, it’s the first day of March, the day when shopkeepers deliver their account books.
Early in the morning, Chen Yu asked curiously, "Miss, can you see the problem with the pages of the account book that the Ninth Prince folded?"
"No." Song Wanqing was a little frustrated. Not only did she not see it, but she also asked Xue Changgui and others to see it, but they didn't see it either.
Could it be that Xiao Jiuan folded it casually to tease her?
"Miss, do you think Shopkeeper Lin and others will come to hand over the ledger today?" Chen Yu was a little worried, "It would be great if they were all as loyal as Shopkeeper Xue."
Song Wanqing smiled nonchalantly, "Of course they are loyal, but they are loyal to money."
She raised her head and looked at Chen Yu, "Don't worry, they will come."
Sure enough, when the agreed time came, Xue Changgui, Lin Hongsheng and others were all waiting in the yard.
Song Wanqing sat on the Grand Master's chair and said in a loud voice, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard work for us, it's just a few steps." Xue Changgui took the lead in delivering Guangshengtang's accounts, "Miss, it's not easy to look at so many accounts."
"Yes, yes, the eldest lady is the one who has the hardest time." People from other pharmacies and medical clinics all agreed.
After Xue Changgui's incident happened, they trusted and relied more on Song Wanqing.
Now in their eyes, Song Wanqing is more of herself than just the granddaughter of the old Chinese doctor.
When it was Lin Hongsheng's turn, he put the account book on the table next to him with a look of disdain, and said in a different direction, "If the eldest lady really read these accounts, then it is indeed a hard work..."
He turned back to look at the people behind him, "If you didn't look, then it would be really hard for us to make two trips every month."
"What did Shopkeeper Lin say?" Shen Yu glared at him, "Our lady will naturally read the account book after she asks for it. When will it be your turn to question it?"
"I dare not question it." Lin Hongsheng smiled, "But whether you can understand it or not, who knows?"
"What Shopkeeper Lin said is absolutely true." Song Wanqing looked a little colder, "I asked you to come, of course not only to deliver the account book, but also to settle accounts!"
"Hahaha..." Lin Hongsheng couldn't help laughing, "The eldest lady is finally willing to admit that you can't understand these accounts at all, hahaha..."
"I'm afraid Shopkeeper Lin may have misunderstood me," Song Wanqing slapped the table, "I said settling accounts, not settling accounts."
She said coldly, "Chen Yu, take Lin Hongsheng's shopkeeper's key."
"Why?" Lin Hongsheng's expression changed instantly, "Isn't the eldest lady getting angry from embarrassment?"
He guarded his shopkeeper's key tightly, "If the eldest lady messes around, I will never comply."
"Why? Of course it's because there's something wrong with your accounts." Song Wanqing looked ugly.
"What's the problem?" Lin Hongsheng felt guilty, but then he thought about it, Song Wanqing couldn't possibly see the manipulation he did on the accounts.
He became a little bolder, "The eldest lady said there was a problem, but pointed out what the problem was? Otherwise, if you say there is a problem with me today and there is a problem with shopkeeper Qian tomorrow, wouldn't this be an injustice to us?"
When the people behind him heard this, they immediately started to resist.
"Yes, Miss, if you think there is something wrong with our accounts, please point it out clearly, otherwise we will not accept it."
"We will not hand over the keys to the shopkeeper until it is made clear."
When Lin Hongsheng saw that Song Wanqing couldn't produce any evidence, he realized that she was deceiving him and said in a deep voice, "The eldest lady is acting so messy, we can only ask the madam to come and make the decision."
He immediately asked his servant to go to Luoxia Garden to invite Chen Qinglian.
"What's going on?" Chen Qinglian entered Jingqing Pavilion and showed off her madam style, "What's going on?"
"Madam, I am really wronged. Madam, please make the decision for me." Lin Hongsheng knelt on the ground, "The eldest lady insists on saying that there is something wrong with my accounts and wants to take away my shopkeeper's key."
"Is there a problem with the accounts?" Chen Qinglian frowned, "Shopkeeper Lin, I have always trusted you, don't let me down."
"Madam, please check carefully. Our Caibao Hall's accounts are clean and there is no problem at all." Lin Hongsheng felt extremely wronged. "It is clearly the eldest lady who deliberately made things difficult."
"Really?" Chen Qinglian looked at the other shopkeepers, "Is what shopkeeper Lin said true?"
The others immediately started talking.
"Shopkeeper Lin is right, the eldest lady is too willful."
"It really chills us that the eldest lady has wronged us like this."
"Ma'am, please make the decision for us."
Chen Qinglian looked at Song Wanqing proudly, "Qing'er, what's going on? Mother gave you these shops to manage, not to let you mess around."
"Ma'am, please take back the shop." Lin Hongsheng suddenly raised his voice.
Except for Xue Changgui's group, the other shopkeepers also knelt down and begged Chen Qinglian to take back the shop.
"Madam is the mistress of the Hou Mansion and the mother of the eldest lady. She has the right to manage these shops for the eldest lady."
"Yes, we can't let the eldest lady continue to act like this. Madam, please make a decision quickly."
Everyone's words and words forced Song Wanqing to give up his plan to manage the shop.
Chen Qinglian was even more proud, "Qing'er, look, this is what everyone means, mother, I..."
"You people are really funny. After you have seen Caibaotang's accounts, you conclude that there are no problems?" Song Wanqing threw an account book in Lin Hongsheng's face, "Shopkeeper Lin, do you dare to say that there are no problems with these accounts?"
She stood up, walked to Lin Hongsheng, and said condescendingly, "Open it yourself and take a good look. Are there any problems?"
Lin Hongsheng looked at Song Wanqing in horror, and then quickly opened the account, only to find that the places where he had done anything had been folded.
Song Wanqing actually discovered it?
He was covered in cold sweat and didn't dare to raise his head at all.
Song Wanqing laughed in her heart. It seemed that Xiao Jiuan did not lie to her. There was indeed something wrong with those accounts.
That day, Xiao Jiuan randomly folded a few pages of accounts, and it was Lin Hongsheng's Caibaotang.
She took advantage of the situation and said sternly, "Lin Hongsheng, what else do you have to argue with?"
"This..." Lin Hongsheng looked at Chen Qinglian for help, "Madam, I..."
Chen Qinglian's face turned pale immediately. She didn't expect that Lin Hongsheng was so useless and Song Wanqing really caught him.
She flicked her sleeves and said coldly, "Shopkeeper Lin, you have disappointed me so much. Why don't you admit your mistake to the eldest lady?"
"Miss, there is indeed something wrong with this account. The people below must have made a mistake." Lin Hongsheng also knew that the real owner of the shop was Song Wanqing. If Song Wanqing wanted to take his key, he had nothing to say at this time.
He knelt down and crawled to Song Wanqing, "Miss, I realize my mistake. I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time."
Everyone else looked at each other in shock when they saw this, feeling guilty and not daring to raise their heads to look at Song Wanqing.
"Qing'er, let's forget it this time." Chen Qinglian said at the right time, "Shopkeeper Lin is too busy, so it's normal for mistakes to happen."
