Xie Wanyun was feeling annoyed and didn't want to pay attention to them, but then he thought, these two old ladies have been relatively quiet recently, so he decided to go over and see what trouble they were going to cause.
Mother Liu was guarding the door, and when she saw her come in, she subconsciously took a step back. After being scolded and slapped by Xie Wanyun that day, she was really afraid of her.
Xie Wanyun, however, pretended not to notice her and went straight into the inner hall. Two old ladies were gathered around the stove, waiting for her with serious faces.
Xie Wanyun stood there calmly, his clear eyes sweeping across the faces of the two men.
Although the fire was warm, the two old ladies clearly felt a chill passing through their bodies.
The momentum of launching a war to hold someone accountable was immediately reduced by half.
Xie Wanyun's lips suddenly curled up into a faint smile. "Wanyun greets the old lady and the lady. I wonder why the two ladies called me here?"
Wei straightened her back, put on a long face, and said, "Wanyun, what have you been busy with these days? You can hardly be seen all day long."
Xie Wanyun sat down leisurely and said nonchalantly, "What are you busy with? Didn't the two ladies already know about this? Just ask whatever you want to ask. Madam, you also know that I don't like beating around the bush."
Wei really wanted to roll her eyes at her! Then, seeing Old Madam Qin shaking her head at her, she forced herself to suppress her anger and forced a smile.
"Wanyun, we know you're working so hard because you're busy with the business of the shop and restaurant."
Xie Wanyun raised the corner of his lips and glanced at her sideways. "You already know, why are you asking?"
Wei was so angry that her eyes were blurry. She trembled and leaned on the chair, gasping for breath.
Seeing her like this, Old Lady Qin knew she was suffocating, so she stopped pretending to be noble and asked directly, "Wanyun, we only see you busy every day, but we never see you bringing home any money. So we have no idea how the business is going. After all, we are the elders of the family, so shouldn't you also give us the account book? It's only right that the account book be handed over to us for safekeeping."
Xie Wanyun was a little amused. Wouldn't it be better to just state the purpose directly? Why go around in circles?
"What are you laughing at?" Old Madam Qin was a little confused and felt even more uncertain.
"I laugh at the old lady, you're such a worrier. Even at such an old age, you refuse to enjoy your retirement and instead want to manage the shop. She's said before that merchants are the lowest of the three classes. Why bother letting the stench of money taint your noble character?"
Old Madam Qin was so angry she nearly fainted. She slammed the Buddhist beads in her hand onto the table with a loud bang and pointed at her, scolding, "Xie Wanyun! Don't go too far! Do you still have any respect for your elders? Is this how the Zhenguogong Mansion educates its legitimate daughter?"
Xie Wanyun's eyes suddenly darkened! Her upturned phoenix eyes shone with coldness, and a layer of frost enveloped her entire body.
It's okay for her to say that, but it's absolutely not okay to slander the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion!
She clenched her fists. She stared at Old Madam Qin for a moment before saying, "So, does that mean I'm going to take care of the account books?"
When Old Madam Qin heard this, she must have been taken aback by her own aura.
Wei also sat up straight.
Xie Wanyun spoke slowly, his voice full of mockery.
"It's not that I don't want you two ladies to manage the account books. It's just that these are the things of the Xie family in the Zhenguo Mansion. They have nothing to do with the Marquis Mansion, so it's not convenient to hand them over to you two ladies."
When Old Madam Qin heard this, she felt like she had been hit by a club! She was a little stunned.
However, she was deep in thought. She exchanged a glance with Wei, then calmed down and said, "Now that you've married into the Yuanxing Marquisate, you're a member of the Qin family. What's the difference between you and me? What's the difference between the Qin and Xie families? We're one family!"
She's really good at saying nice things. Xie Wanyun sighed. If she were her in her previous life, she would have burst into tears of gratitude, poured out her heart and soul, and given everything for the Qin family.
It’s a pity that she is no longer the simple and enthusiastic Xie Wanyun who is unaware of the evil nature of human nature.
