After Yunchu gave the order, the boys immediately carried the bench into the yard.
Xie Shiwei was pinned down on the stool by the boy. He struggled desperately: "Mom, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Please let me go this time..."
Yun Chu said coldly: "Let's get started."
Two strong young men stood on each side, holding thick long wooden boards in their hands.
"Snapped!"
He hit Xie Shiwei hard on the butt.
He let out a scream.
"stop!"
Mr. He, who was wearing blue servant clothes, suddenly rushed in from outside the yard and pushed the man who was playing the board away.
She lowered her head to hide her anxious look, walked up to Yun Chu, knelt down and said: "Madam, using family law is a big deal. Madam, should you ask the old lady and the madam what she means... Besides, the second young master is young. I'm afraid it won't be able to hold up twenty boards. If it is broken, the old lady will pursue it..."
Yun Chu smiled softly: "Why does He's mother seem to love Brother Wei more than my mother? It's as if He's mother is her biological mother, and I, my aunt, are like my stepmother."
He's face suddenly turned pale: "Madam, that's not what I meant. I'm worried that the old lady will blame the madam for hurting the second young master..."
"Master, it's not your servant's turn to worry about the matter, so retreat!" Yun Chu's voice was extremely cold, "You continue!"
The two boys stepped forward and slammed down, causing Xie Shiwei to scream repeatedly.
He bit his lower lip.
As expected, it's not my biological child, so I don't feel bad at all.
She turned around and ran towards Anshou Hall.
Yun Chu watched calmly as the boy hit the board, once, twice and three times. At first, Xie Shiwei could still scream, but then the sound became weaker and weaker.
On the tenth board, I fainted.
"Brother Wei!"
The old lady arrived belatedly on crutches and was absolutely horrified to see this scene.
"Quick, go get the doctor!"
The old lady was so panicked that she asked someone to quickly carry Xie Shiwei back to her room.
"If I don't come, are you going to beat brother Wei to death!" The old lady stared at Yun Chu and said word by word, "It's just a cricket. If it dies, it's dead. Can't you just buy another one? , As for beating the child like this! Even if you have to be punished, there are a hundred ways. Who allows you to use family law? You are trying to kill Brother Wei!"
Xie Shi'an took a step forward: "Great-grandmother, this is what I mean."
The old lady was stunned.
Mrs. He ran out of breath and came to complain, saying that Chu'er wanted to beat brother Wei to death. She thought it was Chu'er who ordered people to enforce the law.
Why is it actually Brother An?
"Shiwei's temper should really be suppressed, otherwise we don't know what big trouble we will cause in the future!" Xie Shi'an said, "My father is about to be transferred and has angered the people in Prince Pingxi's palace. I don't know what the consequences will be. , Shiwei must bear these twenty big boards."
The old lady tightened her grip on the crutch.
King Pingxi, the current third prince, had great military exploits and was very favored. He was a big shot that the Xie family could never even dream of contacting.
However, the grandson's wife got acquainted with the young prince of Pingxi Palace.
Yun Chu lowered his eyes: "Whether I am punishing Brother An to kneel in the ancestral hall or punishing Brother Wei to hit the board, the old lady is always worried that I will hurt the children. In the final analysis, just because I am not the biological mother of the children, maybe I will only If you can pamper and pamper her and give her whatever you want, then your family will be at peace."
The old lady was speechless.
In the past few days, she had questioned Chu'er several times, and it turned out that she was wrong every time.
"Chu'er, these children are in your name. They are your biological children. If you want to beat or scold them, it is your right. As a grandmother who has separated generations, I really shouldn't interfere too much." She sighed. He took a breath and said, "Let's go back to Anshou Hall."
Standing behind the old lady, Mr. He pursed his lips.
The old lady doesn’t care about them anymore, and it’s even more impossible for the madam to care about them. Then wouldn’t her children be allowed to be taught by the madam?
But what can she say as a servant?
When she walked out of Yusheng Residence, she heard Yun Chu ordering his servants: "There are still ten boards left, wait until Brother Wei recovers before continuing."
He stumbled and almost fell down.
The aunts in the yard looked at each other with their heads lowered, trying to reduce their presence as much as possible.
Yun Chu waved his hand and let them all go down, leaving Xie Ping alone.
"Mother."
Xie Ping was a little scared.
She used to think that her mother was very easy to get along with, but now she doesn't dare to think so.
She stood beside Yun Chu, looking well-behaved.
Yunchu asked Chen Defu to buy a better cricket and send it to Pingxi Prince's Mansion, and then taught Xie Ping how to read the account book.
Xie Ping has also read books, knows words, and can write, but she is not very good at doing calculations. Listen to Shuang to teach her how to calculate clearly.
For those who have read books, this is actually not difficult at all as long as someone teaches you.
Xie Ping quickly learned a lot. She calculated the account books from last year and said in shock: "I didn't expect that our Xie family, from such a small family, would spend so much in a year. If we just rely on these Shop, the whole family has to drink from the northwest wind, but luckily my mother is here."
Yunchu put down what he was doing and said warmly: "So the most important thing now is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. You, a boudoir lady, don't know how to increase revenue, so why not help mother think about how to reduce expenditure?"
Xie Ping felt like she was being reused, and she nodded confidently: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely be able to come up with an idea."
For the entire afternoon, Xie Ping stayed in Yunchu's side hall to read the account books.
At the beginning of dusk, she excitedly said to Yunchu: "Mother, there are more than twenty women in charge of our Xie Mansion. These women arrange tea and snacks every afternoon, which costs about ten taels per person. The money is more than 200 taels a day, which is close to 10 taels a month. If we save this expenditure, we can save at least 100 taels a year."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Although one hundred taels is not much, if we find a few more ways to cut costs and accumulate a little money, it will be a considerable amount of money in a year. Sister Ping, I will leave this matter to you. Go and do it, can you do it?"
Xie Ping was encouraged: "I will work hard to get it done."
Yun Chu nodded: "You are young, it doesn't matter even if you make a mistake. If you have anything you don't understand, just come and ask me."
"Thank you, mother."
Xie Ping has high morale.
Shian Shiwei was punished one after another, but she was the only one who received praise from her mother. She will definitely be able to do what her mother asked her to do.
She returned to her yard with a pile of ledgers in her arms to continue her research.
Yun Chu pulled his lips and continued to look down at the account book.
What she was looking at was not the accounts of the Xie family, but the accounts of her own shop, Zhuangzi.
It’s enough to just do things for the Xie family, the most important thing is to plan your own business well...
She kept busy until it was completely dark, and she heard Shuang softly reminding her that it was time for dinner.
As soon as the food was put on the table, Tingxue came in from outside and said, "Madam, Uncle Chen just returned home and said that the young prince of Pingxi Palace is unwilling to have that cricket..."
