Ye Chutang pinched her cheek.
"Don't worry, I'll show you everything."
Xiaowu's eyes were crooked.
——I know that Sister A is the best!
Ye Chutang carried Xiao Wu into the house and asked Ye Yunfeng to open the two boxes.
"Ayan, you know the weather and harvests in the past three years. Look at the field leasing part."
Ye Jingyan responded: "Okay."
Ye Chutang himself looked through the account books of those shops.
Xiaowu sat next to her and put a book in front of her.
She read quickly, and the abacus in her hand crackled.
Among the siblings, only Ye Yunfeng was left alone to have nothing to do.
He looked left and right, and finally couldn't help but stepped forward to take a look. When he saw the lines of words on it, Ying Ting's face suddenly wrinkled.
Headache! What a headache!
Ye Chutang didn't even raise his head: "Ah Feng, if you really have nothing to do, go out and buy some mung bean cake for Xiao Wu."
Ye Yunfeng was amnesty: "Okay! I'll go right away!"
When Xiao Wu heard this sentence, his little ears twitched and he sped up the movements of his hands.
--green bean cake! You have to read the account book before Fourth Brother buys it back!
…
Ye Yunfeng's legs and feet were quick and he quickly came back after buying something.
Unexpectedly, I met Ye Shixian halfway.
"What did Ah Feng do?" Ye Shixian glanced at his hand and said with a smile.
Ye Yunfeng had no good impression of their family at all, and his attitude at this time was naturally cold and indifferent.
"Buy some food for Xiaowu."
After saying that, he turned around and left with a long stride.
Ye Shixian nodded with understanding, and then asked: "By the way, I also bought some things. I originally planned to give them to you when you go to the Imperial College to study, but now that you can't go, can I just give them to you?"
Ye Yunfeng paused and frowned: "What did you say?"
…
"Sister!"
Ye Yunfeng hurried back and trotted back to the room.
Ye Chutang looked up at him: "What's wrong?"
Ye Yunfeng looked anxious: "I met Ye Shixian just now, and she said that my third brother and I can't go to the Imperial College to study? Is this true?"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Jingyan also put down the booklet in her hand.
Ye Chutang thought it was something, but when he heard this, he looked at the ledger again.
"Don't take it seriously."
A moment of confusion flashed across Ye Yunfeng's face: "Sister?"
It's not that he doesn't believe Sister A, but Ye Shixian's tone and demeanor were so natural when she said those words!
"She said it was because dad——"
Ye Yunfeng paused and scratched his head irritably.
"Actually, I don't care, but Third Brother must go! Second Uncle -"
He is not a material for studying. It will be the same wherever he goes, but the third brother is different.
If we can't go to the Imperial College, won't we delay the third brother?
Ye Chutang closed the account book in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I really count on him. You and Ayan will never get involved."
What did Ye Jingyan guess: "Sister, you didn't want to ask him for help?"
Ye Chutang shook the account book in his hand.
"If he hadn't accomplished this, how could he have handed over these ledgers so easily as compensation?"
She knew from the beginning that Ye Heng was unreliable, so it was better to retreat than to advance.
At least she got what she wanted now.
"Ignore what she said. In a few days, someone will take you to the Imperial College."
Hearing what she said, Ye Yunfeng finally let go of his hanging heart.
Although I don’t know what my sister is thinking of, she has never broken her promise, and it will definitely be the same this time!
…
In the afternoon, Ye Shixian came suddenly.
"Cousin, I didn't disturb you, did I?"
Ye Chutang smiled slightly: "No. It's you, aren't you taking care of Mingze?"
The smile on Ye Shixian's face faded a lot, but soon returned to normal.
"He's getting better and doesn't need to be watched all the time."
Otherwise, wouldn’t he really be a lunatic with a brain problem?
Ye Chutang nodded: "That's good."
Ye Shixian didn't want to talk to her about Ye Mingze, for fear that she would say something about wanting to see her parents and brother.
"Actually, I came here this time because I have something I want to discuss with my cousin. Three days later, the eldest princess's mansion will hold a morning flower banquet. I would like to invite my cousin to go with me. What do you think of it?"
Speaking of this, there was a hint of pride on her face.
"How noble the eldest princess's status is. I don't need to say more. My cousin also knows it. Those who are qualified to participate in this morning flower banquet are all noble daughters of aristocratic families in the capital. Why don't you come with me?"
It seemed that she was afraid that Ye Chutang didn't know how honored she was to be invited to this morning flower banquet.
Ye Chutang looked at her and felt a little funny.
It seems that Ye Shixian really feels that she has entered that circle.
"I'm afraid it would be inappropriate if I went to such an occasion uninvited, right?"
Ye Shixian had already thought of her words: "It doesn't matter. Those who are invited can bring their relatives along with them. It just so happens that my mother can't go, so my cousin is coming with me, so I can have company. Besides, cousin, you haven't been here for a long time." Now that we are back, many people may not be familiar with them, so wouldn’t it be nice to take this opportunity to introduce them to you?”
The words were sincere and seemed to be a genuine invitation.
Ye Chutang pondered for a moment and seemed a little shaken.
Ye Shixian persuaded her a few more times, and Ye Chutang finally nodded.
"good."
…
After Ye Shixian left, Xiao Wu ran out from the inner room and looked up at Ye Chutang curiously.
——Don’t you like this kind of occasion? Why would you agree?
Ye Chutang saw her and smiled: "Have you read the account book?"
Xiao Wu nodded vigorously, but the next second, his face fell.
Ye Chutang looked at her wilting look and guessed something: "What, is there something wrong with the account?"
Xiao Wu suppressed his blush.
——That’s not just a problem! The problem is so big! All thirteen shops are losing money!
She had never seen such a bad account book since she could read, and she almost fainted after doing the calculations.
——So sad, so sad!
Ye Chutang stroked her hair soothingly, but was not surprised by this. He smiled and said, "It would be weird if he wanted to make money."
Xiaowu was still angry.
——Those accounts don’t add up at all! It's just a fake account book to deceive people!
Ye Chutang was actually not very angry, but there was something strange about her.
Some of these shops are in very good locations. It stands to reason that no matter how bad they are, they would not have such bad accounts.
If Ye Heng had expected that they would come back and made false accounts in advance, he wouldn't have said anything.
But the key point is - these dozen or so books are not the latest forgeries at all.
At least in the short period of time after they came back, there was absolutely no time to make so many fake accounts.
Since Ye Heng had long believed that they were all dead and felt that these properties belonged to him, why did he keep making false accounts?
It's so troublesome, what is he trying to do?
