Since we want to investigate the mystery behind the General's Mansion, we must sneak into the General's Mansion and check the monthly cash flow statements to see where the extra money comes from.

The housekeeper did not doubt him and nodded quickly: "Young Madam, please follow me."

If one wants to be the head of the household, one must first understand the monthly expenses of the General's Mansion so that one can better arrange the affairs of the Mansion in the future. Therefore, it is reasonable for Jiang Li to check the accounts as soon as he gets the power to be the head of the household.

Jiang Li followed the housekeeper to the accounting office. As soon as she reached the door, she heard the crackling sound of an abacus.

Jiang Li raised her eyebrows and stepped onto the steps in front of the accounting office. As soon as she reached the door, she saw a middle-aged man looking down at the abacus in his hand without even bothering to raise his head.

The housekeeper introduced Jiang Li, "Madam, this is Mr. Tu, the accountant of the General's Mansion. All the accounts of the General's Mansion, including the accounts of the shops in the city, are managed by Mr. Tu alone."

Jiang Li nodded slightly and walked into the accounting office.

"Mr. Tu, the young lady is here. From now on, the general's mansion will be run by the young lady."

The housekeeper introduced Jiang Li's identity to Mr. Tu, who was doing the accounts.

Mr. Tu has always been oblivious to what is happening outside and has always been focused on the accounts. Apart from eating and sleeping, he deals with the account books every day. He spends nearly six hours out of the twelve hours in the accounting office.

The housekeeper had no doubt that he might not even know when a young lady appeared in the general's mansion.

After hearing the housekeeper's introduction, Mr. Tu didn't even raise his head, as if he didn't hear it. Not to mention bowing to the young lady Jiang Li, he didn't even look at her.

The housekeeper twitched his lips when he saw this, fearing that Jiang Li would misunderstand him, and quickly explained: "Don't blame me, Madam. Mr. Tu is just like this. When he settles accounts, he likes to immerse himself in his own world and can't hear others talking."

"It is a blessing for the General's Mansion to have such a responsible accountant."

Jiang Li did not blame Mr. Tu for his rudeness. After saying that, she walked straight towards him.

After coming to Mr. Tu, Jiang Li glanced at the account book in his hand, which showed the profits and expenses of the shop in the south of the city.

Jiang Li just wanted to see how much profit a shop in the General's Mansion could make every month, so she said to Mr. Tu, "Mr. Tu, let me see this account book."

Mr. Tu ignored him and continued to look at the account book and fiddle with the abacus, moving so fast that afterimages of his fingers appeared.

In response to Mr. Tu's repeated rudeness, Jiang Li pursed her lips and placed her hand on the account book in front of him.

The clattering sound of the abacus stopped instantly.

Mr. Tu, who was doing the accounts with his head down, also raised his head.

hiss--

Qingzhu widened his eyes and gasped, and Jiang Li was also stunned.

"Madam, are you okay? Blame me for not reminding you in advance!"

Upon seeing this, the housekeeper quickly ran to Jiang Li to apologize to her and looked at her with a worried look on his face.

Jiang Li quickly calmed down and shook her head: "No problem."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Mr. Tu in front of her and met his different eyes, one black and one blue.

Mr. Tu was a man with heterochromia. When Zhou Qingyuan first brought him to the general's mansion, he frightened everyone in the mansion. Whenever they looked into his eyes, it was as if they were being stared at by a poisonous snake, making their hair stand on end and their backs feel cold.

At first, people in the general's mansion did not dare to approach Mr. Tu. Whenever they saw him, they would walk around him. It took them more than half a month to get used to him and be able to look him in the eye without changing their expression.

Mr. Tu never cared about what others thought. Ever since he came to the General's Mansion, he had been keeping to himself and never talked much with others. At first, everyone thought he was a mute.

Jiang Li was also startled when she first met his heterochromatic eyes, but she quickly calmed down.

"Mr. Tu, stop for a moment and let me see the account book in your hand."

The two men put their hands on the account book together, neither of them giving in, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

The housekeeper quickly stepped forward to act as a peacemaker: "Mr. Tu, this is the young lady. The power of the general's mansion will be handed over to the young lady in the future."

"It's the general's order."

At the end, the butler added that Mr. Tu only listened to the general, and everyone in the general's mansion knew about this matter.

Sure enough, after hearing that it was Zhou Qingyuan's order, Mr. Tu instantly let go of his hand.

Jiang Li looked at him deeply, picked up the account book and flipped through a few pages. Her eyes flickered when she saw the monthly profits and losses of the South City Shop recorded in the account book.

She knew about the shops in the general's mansion, but she didn't expect that the shop in the south of the city would make so much profit every month.

It's just a small clothing shop, where does such huge profit come from?

Jiang Li was confused but did not ask directly. She flipped through a few pages casually and then put the account book back in front of Mr. Tu.

"Thank you for your help, sir."

Mr. Tu said nothing and started to calculate the accounts in the account book again.

The butler shook his head helplessly. Mr. Tu was still the same as before. He never talked to anyone in the mansion unless the general allowed him to speak.

"Young Madam, this way please."

Fearing that Jiang Li and Mr. Tu might have a misunderstanding, the housekeeper made a gesture of invitation to her.

Jiang Li did not stay with Mr. Tu, and followed the housekeeper to another place in the accounting office.

The housekeeper introduced the accounting situation to Jiang Li and wanted to take her to see the shops in the general's mansion in person, but Jiang Li finally found a reason to refuse.

She would go to these shops in person to inquire about them, but not as the general's wife.

Although she is now the mistress of the General's Mansion, the people in the General's Mansion are not on the same page with her. Even if she goes there now, those people will just use the same old rhetoric to get rid of her, and they won't hear the truth.

Jiang Li was busy, so the housekeeper naturally would not force her to visit those shops. After sending the housekeeper away, Jiang Li and Qingzhu returned to Nanyuan.

Qingzhu was absent-minded all the way, and walked lightly, as if in a dream. He didn't even know how he got back to Nanyuan.

After returning to Nanyuan, Jiang Li took out two sets of men's clothes from the cupboard and opened her arms: "Qingzhu, change clothes."

Ancient clothing was complicated. Jiang Li tried to change it herself, but each time she wasted a lot of time because she was either missing this or that. So she simply asked Qingzhu to help her change clothes.

Qingzhu shuddered and finally came back to her senses. She also accepted the fact that Jiang Li had transformed into the mistress of the general's mansion.

No matter what kind of wind it is, the young lady is now the mistress of the general's mansion!

Qingzhu walked forward with a puzzled look on his face: "Where are you going, Miss?"

"You'll know in a moment."

The two of them quickly changed their clothes and quietly walked towards the abandoned back door.

As soon as they left, Shen Tingsi and Feng Jue appeared from the darkness.

"Master, where are they going?"
