Chapter 87 Touring the Estate



The third day of the fourth month in the third year of Tianhe.

The weather was sunny and cloudless, and the sunshine felt warm and comfortable on my skin.

With Granny Gong taking care of Yun Qingluo every step of the way, Yun Tao and Yun Xin had more free time, so the two of them set about packing Yun Qingluo's dowry.

The Wang family was large and wealthy, and they didn't lack Yun Qingluo's dowry. In addition, there were many things to do in the mansion when she first married into the family, so the dowry was just left in a side room and was never organized.

Yun Qingluo had already confessed to Mo Beichen that she disliked managing internal affairs. Without saying a word, Mo Beichen specially hired an accountant to manage the Wangfu's properties. Every few days, he would bring the account books to Yun Qingluo for review.

To reduce her workload, Yun Qingluo taught the accountant modern bookkeeping methods, which greatly improved efficiency and saved her a lot of trouble.

The accountant was also an interesting person. After receiving guidance from Yun Qingluo, he declared that he would be the accountant of the royal palace for life, follow the princess, and be determined to make the royal palace's accounts meticulous and without error.

Yun Tao chuckled to herself: "That's just the fate of an accountant."

That day, Yun Qingluo clumsily tried to learn needlework inside the house.

This was because Granny Gong noticed that Yun Qingluo's temperament was becoming increasingly irritable, so she specially had her learn needlework to temper her character.

I remember in my previous life, when Granny Gong first saw her needlework, she said, "Even a dog would shun this needlework."

For this reason, the hot-blooded and competitive Yun Qingluo called her an old hag for half a month straight.

But looking at her hands now, bruised and battered from needle pricks, it's clear that her needlework skills haven't improved at all.

Xiao Yi gloated, "Master, I didn't expect your needlework in your previous life to be so bad. You tied surgical knots so well, how come your needlework was so terrible?"

"Master, you're so clumsy! You've put it in the wrong place. Oh dear, it's not that the needle is in the wrong place, it's that you're holding the embroidery upside down."

"This injection wasn't meant to be placed here. Oh dear, you're so stupid."

"Xiao Yi, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute." Yun Qingluo couldn't bear it any longer and said fiercely with her mind.

Xiao Yi chuckled, "Oh dear, I just couldn't stand by and watch anymore."

Yun Qingluo said, "If you can't stand it, you don't have to watch."

"Hmph, Master is wicked. By the way, the second batch of medicine is ready and can be sent away. Don't look for me again. I've exhausted myself and need to recuperate for a while."

Xiao Yi hasn't appeared during this time; he's been endlessly refining medicinal herbs. The last batch of herbs sent to the battlefield was probably barely enough for Yun Qingluo.

So much time has passed, the medicine is probably all gone. Looks like we need to hurry and send it out.

Yun Qingluo nodded, "Don't sleep yet. I have three drops of my heart's blood here. Please help me refine an antidote pill."

She is a medicine person; her heart's blood can cure all poisons. If combined with rare medicinal herbs such as thousand-year-old ginseng, snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain, ice-fire lotus seeds from southern Xinjiang, and resurrection grass, it can bring the dead back to life and cure all poisons.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi angrily retorted, "You...you're crazy? How could you pull this trick again when I wasn't paying attention? I don't care, you can refine it yourself if you want."

Yun Qingluo felt helpless. She knew that Xiao Yi disliked her hurting herself the most, but recently she had been restless and felt that something was going to happen, so she planned to make three pills and keep them in case of emergency.

"Xiao Yi, as you can see, I'm being closely watched by Granny Gong these days, and I rarely even go to the pharmacy anymore. How can I have time to refine this medicine? Please help me! Can you bear to let my hard work go to waste?"

"Besides, it's only three drops. With Granny Gong feeding me tonics every day, I'll definitely recover quickly. Xiao Yi, please help me."

"Xiao Yi, I promise you, I will never use my heart's blood in medicine again, really just this once."

Xiao Yi, worn down by Yun Qingluo's nagging, had no choice but to agree, "Dare to do it again? If there's a next time, I'll self-destruct, out of sight, out of mind."

Yun Qingluo nodded quickly and continued to apologize, knowing that Xiao Yi was angry.

Her little brother, Xiao Yi, accompanied her throughout her life in the modern world, fighting alongside her, rushing to the battlefield together, and snatching people from the clutches of death together. They shared a life-or-death bond.

For some reason, it wasn't activated in its previous life, but it still retained its memories.

I remember when I first unlocked it, it kept talking to me and crying all night while I was trying to sleep.

She scolded her for being stupid and foolish, and blamed herself for being powerless. She repeatedly promised Xiao Yi that she would never hurt herself again in this life, and only then did she appease it.

Her first child had already developed human emotions without her even realizing it, which is really amazing.

Always great.

Yun Tao lifted the curtain and walked in.

“Miss, your dowry has been put into the Prince’s private treasury. Mr. Fan has also registered the shops and farmland. Mr. Fan said that the income from a few estates does not match up and he would like to ask the Princess how to handle it.”

Mr. Fan was the accountant who had vowed to follow Yun Qingluo to the death, but she was only used by Yun Qingluo, and the daily expenses of the Prince's Mansion were managed by another accountant.

Yun Qingluo pulled herself back to reality, lowered her head to hide the strange look in her eyes, and asked Yun Tao to bring the ledger, which she then looked through.

"You're a medical student, do you even understand this?" Xiao Yi interjected.

Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "Have you forgotten what I did when I was pursuing my master's and doctoral degrees?"

Xiao Yi was speechless.

Okay, it almost forgot.

On her first day of graduate school, her advisor, worried that studying medicine might make her stupid, registered a company for her so she could have some fun.

Hopefully, she could learn business management and finance to refresh her mind, but her supervisor probably never imagined that Dr. Yun Qingluo would hand over a listed company to him upon graduation.

In seven years, it has transformed from a fledgling company with no office to a listed company worth hundreds of billions, with many companies seeking cooperation.

These ancient account books were no challenge for her at all.

Yun Qingluo looked at the figures in the ledger and suddenly had a flash of inspiration. "Yun Tao, where is Granny?"

Yun Tao didn't understand why Yun Qingluo was so excited about looking at the account book, but she still replied, "The nanny went to the kitchen to bring the princess some nourishing soup."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo hurriedly put on her clothes and went outside.

Halfway there, they ran into Granny Gong, who was walking towards them.

Seeing Yun Qingluo rushing about, the palace maid looked worried. "Why is Your Highness in such a hurry? What if you fall and get hurt?"

Yun Qinglu handed the tonic soup from the nanny to Yun Tao, who was standing to the side, and took the nanny's arm as they walked into the house together.

"I was just about to go find the old woman. It's like this, there's been some trouble with the estate that came with my dowry. I thought I'd go take a look and relax a bit."

Yun Qingluo could already imagine the happy life she would have after going to the manor: fishing, having barbecues in the wild...

The nanny disagreed, saying, "It's safer for the Princess to stay in the manor. Everyone outside is watching her pregnancy. If the Princess goes out..."
