Chapter 174 Good Heart
Even though she didn't provoke him, he still spoke in a sarcastic tone and had a heart smaller than a needle. He even had the nerve to say that she was not magnanimous. Why did she always meet such shameless people?
However, judging from Xie Zhihuan's attitude towards her, it was exactly the same as how Princess Shouzhen treated her in her previous life.
Princess Shouzhen felt that she was not worthy of Xiao Yun and found fault with her everywhere. Xie Zhihuan seemed to really treat herself as Xie Jingyu's biological sister, and it didn't seem like she was pretending. No one knew what went wrong.
Chen Wan had a mocking expression on her face. Xie Zhihuan gritted her teeth and said, "I was afraid that my sister-in-law would be criticized, so I kindly reminded her. If she doesn't appreciate it, then forget it. Why bother mocking me!"
Is that what you call kindness?
Chen Wan said, "I misunderstood the eldest lady. I just got married and didn't know that the eldest lady just likes to speak in a sarcastic way. In fact, she has a sharp tongue but a stinky tofu heart. You will know it later."
puff!
The second girl, Xie Zhirou, couldn't help laughing out loud.
The maid in the room also had her shoulders shaking.
I've only heard of people with sharp tongues but a soft heart, but this is the first time I've heard of someone with a sharp tongue but a stinky heart.
Xie Zhihuan's face turned green with anger. Her eyes swept across, and the maids immediately stopped laughing. But Xie Zhirou was not afraid of Xie Zhihuan. She watched the fun and added fuel to the fire, "You are not allowed to laugh at all. My sister-in-law will say you are overbearing."
There was an icy look in Xie Zhihuan's eyes when she looked at Chen Wan.
She clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves.
Don't teach her a lesson.
She really didn't know whose territory the Jingbei Palace belonged to!
…
Chen Ti married Xiao Yun, but on the day of her return, Xiao Yun did not accompany her, so Chen Ti returned to the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion alone.
But this has nothing to do with Shen Wan, Shen Wan has been busy these days.
She didn't like to take care of the shops in the dowry farm, but she couldn't just sit there and do nothing. After being lazy for so many days, she couldn't do it any longer, so she called the shop owners and farm managers into her house and got a brief understanding of the shop business and the farm's harvest. Five days had passed.
There was no other way. The dowry given by the Duke Dingguo Mansion and the Yun family was too much. Even the dowry given to her by Old Tutor Lin and Old Madam Lin included three shops, one with four courtyards and one with five courtyards, and three hundred acres of fertile land.
The dowry was large, and so were the account books. Chen Wan felt dizzy looking at those account books, and she couldn't bear to read them any longer. She glanced over and saw Yin Chuan wiping the table. She suddenly felt that she was being wasted and that her talent was wasted, like a pearl in a jar.
Noticing Chen Wan looking at her, Yin Chuan thought there was something dirty on her face, but then she saw Chen Wan smiling at her, "Come here."
Yinchuan ran over happily.
Shen Wan handed her the account book and said, "Come and see."
Silver bracelet, “…”
Yinchuan pointed at herself, still holding a rag in her hand, and said, "Would you like me to look at the account book?"
I didn't know where the voice came from.
The only maids in the room were her and Shanhu.
Who else could it be but her?
Shen Wan said, "It's you."
The corner of Yinchuan's mouth twitched, "But I don't know how to do it."
"Learn it, you can learn it."
Chen Wan pressed Yinchuan down and sat down.
Yinchuan felt like she was being forced into something. She knew that the Crown Princess didn't like looking at the account books, and she was willing to help her share the burden, but the problem was that she really didn't know how to do it.
Even if she wants to learn, someone has to teach her.
Shen Wan said, “I’ll find someone to teach you.”
The Yun family is the best at accounting and managing business, but the Yun family has a wide range of businesses and is short of manpower. In addition, not everyone can enter the Jingbei Palace, so if anyone wants to learn, they can only send Yinchuan to the Yun family. In her previous life, she didn't know how long it took Yinchuan and her mother to learn, but anyway, they learned it and can help her mother share a lot of things.
But she didn't have to look for the Yun family. She could try looking for Xie Jingyu. There must be someone good at accounting in the Jingbei Palace.
Just thinking about asking Xie Jingyu for help, he would not refuse, but he would make a request. Thinking that he would turn his face sideways and ask her to kiss him, Shen Wanren walked outside the study and stopped.
In the study, Xie Jingyu was reading a book.
Hearing Shen Wan's footsteps walking back and forth outside the door, he said, "Come in."
Shen Wan was torn between conscience and desire in her heart, and Xie Jingyu's voice suddenly came, scaring her.
She made up her mind, it was just a kiss, it wouldn't cost her a thing, she didn't know how much he had taken advantage of her, she might as well just take it as some interest.
Thinking of this, Chen Wan's eyes became firm and he stepped into the study.
Xie Jingyu was curious about what had happened that made Shen Wan so embarrassed, wanting to go in but not daring to. Just as he was about to ask, he saw Shen Wan walking towards him with a determination on his face as if he was heading to the execution ground.
Chen Wan walked to him, bent down, and kissed him on the face.
Xie Jingyu, “…”
I just want to kiss him, so why don't you dare come in?
A certain gentleman's mouth curled up in a happy arc.
But the arc hadn't fully opened yet, and then it went back, and Shen Wan blushed and said, "Can you do me a favor?"
That was really a bucket of cold water poured over me from head to toe.
Happy?
I'm so angry that I'm about to die.
Xie Jingyu looked at Shen Wan, "What's the matter?"
The words came out from between his teeth.
Shen Wan said, “There are too many account books, I can’t finish reading them…”
Xie Jingyu laughed angrily, "You want me to help you check the account books?"
Shen Wan shook her head. She didn't dare ask Xie Jingyu to help him look at the account books. "Find a maid who is good at accounting to teach me..."
Those account books have to be checked every month. Even if you read them as quickly as possible, it will still take two or three days.
Asking Xie Jingyu to help her manage the accounts would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
Xie Jingyu thought Shen Wan was looking for him for something important, but it turned out to be just like this...
Xie Jingyu looked at Shen Wan, "Is that it?"
Shen Wan nodded.
Xie Jingyu chuckled, "Why do I feel like you're just pretending to ask for my help, and that you're really trying to take advantage of me?"
“…”
She didn't come here with the mentality of taking advantage.
Could it be that she was too obvious and was seen through?
Shen Wan shook his head in denial, and the next moment he was hugged by the waist and sat on the desk.
This gesture made Shen Wan blush, because the first picture of Chun Gong that she looked at the night before her wedding was on the desk…
Shen Wan wanted to go down, but Xie Jingyu blocked her way, so she couldn't. Just as she was about to speak, her mouth was blocked.
Shen Wan, “……!!!”
Why did she come to him? !
She could obviously ask her cousin for help!
Shen Wan was filled with regret, but her breath was taken away and her mind went blank.
It was rare for Shen Wan to take the initiative, so how could Xie Jingyu let go of such a good opportunity? He kissed Shen Wan until her body became limp, and then he let her go. "If you want to kiss me in the future, just come, no need to make excuses."
Who made excuses?
Shen Wan’s face flushed, “I really came to you for help!”
It just feels like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.
Xie Jingyu said, "It's just a small favor, there's no need to do this."
Chen Wan immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Then you can help Fu An find his family..."
This woman is really concerned about that thing called Bangchui.
Xie Jingyu said, "It's not easy to find."
Shen Wan asked, “Is this difficult?”
Xie Jingyu said, "There was a fire in the palace a few years ago, and all the account books recording the household registration of the palace people were burned. There was no replacement. If you want to check, you can only go to the palace next time and ask Eunuch An for help."
Although he didn't find it, Shen Wan's heart softened into a puddle of water.
That day, Xie Jingyu asked her to kiss him before he agreed to help Fu'an find his family. She left without kissing him, but she didn't expect that he would still help find his family.
When she looked up and met Xie Jingyu's eyes, Shen Wan felt that he still wanted to kiss her. Shen Wan pushed him away and quickly got down from the desk.
When I went out and was blown by the wind, the temperature on my face did not subside much.
Shen Wan wanted to go back. When she reached the door, she thought of the pile of account books that gave her a headache. She didn't even want to go into the inner room.
Shanhu covered her mouth and laughed. "The Crown Princess has been looking at the accounts for a few days. The weather is nice today. How about going for a walk in the garden?"
Shen Wan decisively went to the garden.
I just didn't expect the garden to be so lively today.
Xie Zhihuan, Xie Zhirou and the others were all here.
Xie Zhihuan sat on the swing, swinging high up, feeling very happy.
