Chapter 157 Accounting
At one o'clock the next day, the rain was still falling heavily.
Huaying sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at her increasingly beautiful face in the mirror, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.
Qinghe, who was combing her hair, saw Huaying frowning slightly and asked with concern, "Miss, is Qinghe hurting you?" As he spoke, he eased the strength in his hands.
Looking at the thoughtful Qinghe, Huaying raised her lips slightly and said softly, "Not really. I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy in my heart recently."
Qing He heard her words and said with a smile: "Miss, I heard from the maids in the mansion that many girls are like you before they get married, always worrying about this and that, but everything will be fine after they get married."
Huaying was amused by her words, "You little girl know a lot, Qinghe has someone in love?"
Qinghe tied her hair up and said with a pout, "Miss is always teasing me. I don't want a lover. Qinghe just wants to follow you." As she spoke, she gently inserted a moon-shaped tassel hairpin into her hair.
"Young lady has fair skin, and this moon-white tassel hairpin makes her look even more beautiful."
Huaying looked at herself in the mirror and nodded slightly, "Qinghe's hair-braiding skills are getting better and better."
Qing He said proudly: "It's not that Qing He's craftsmanship is good, it's that Miss is so beautiful that any hair accessories will suit her."
Huaying stood up, picked up her umbrella, and prepared to go to Chunhuayuan. She had made an appointment with her mother yesterday to learn the art of housekeeping.
When going down the stairs, Qinghe, who was holding Huaying's hand, saw Yuexing passing by the door and whispered to her, "Miss, Yuexing probably has someone he likes. You should make the decision for him first."
Huaying was startled when she heard this, turned around to look at Yuexing who was walking away, then asked with a smile, "Oh? How did you know?"
"A few days ago, Yue Xing asked me where my daughters like to go during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I was shocked and thought he was interested in me."
Huaying looked at the flowers and plants that were becoming more delicate after being moistened by the rain, and smiled and replied to Qinghe, "So what did you say?"
Qinghe whispered, "I said I don't know either. I even asked him who he was going to date, but he wouldn't tell me." Qinghe followed Huaying and gossiped with excitement on her face. She didn't know who would like that big fool Yuexing.
The two of them chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at Chunhuayuan.
After entering the house, Huaying saw the nanny talking to her mother. She put away her umbrella and walked forward to greet her mother.
Mother Shen looked at her well-behaved and sensible daughter, a gratified smile appeared on her face. She gently took Huaying's hand and led her to the eight-immortals table.
There were two account books on the table. Shen's mother picked up the account books and said to Huaying gently, "Ying'er, let's learn how to manage accounts today. You must learn these skills when you marry into the Fu family and become the mistress.
Although you can find a trustworthy person to help you, you also need to understand it yourself and not be fooled.
Come, take a look at the difference between these two account books. "
As the mistress of the Shen family, Shen's mother has been in charge of all matters of the family for many years and has never made any mistakes. Now, she is passing on her experience and wisdom to Huaying, hoping that she can handle life in the Fu Mansion with ease.
Huaying sat down obediently, picked up the account book and began to read it carefully.
After a moment, she raised her head and held one of the books to look at her mother who was drinking tea, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Mom, at first glance, these two account books seem to be the same, but if you compare them carefully, you will find that there are some omissions in the numbers in this one!"
Although the amount of silver and money in this account book is the same as in the other one, many details are missing.
Mother Shen gently put down the teacup and looked at Huaying with a hint of relief in her eyes, "Ying'er is really smart. Come. Mother will tell you what the Yin-Yang account book is...
