Xia Tian finished her words slowly and calmly. She was not afraid at all that Qiu Yue would complain.
Qiuyue opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing.
The main reason was that Xia Tian had dared to hit her without any reason last time, which made her still a little scared.
Seeing that Qiuyue didn't say anything else and didn't send anyone to complain to Liu, Xia Tian snorted in his heart, "You're smart."
Cuiyun was also worried when she saw what her wife did, fearing that Liu would find out and punish her wife.
This half hour felt like a year. He looked towards the gate of the yard from time to time, afraid that Liu would suddenly come in.
Half an hour has passed.
Cuiyun breathed a sigh of relief and quickly helped Xia Tian up.
After kneeling, Xia Tian asked Qiu Yue, "Madam, do you have any other instructions?"
Qiuyue paused, then remembered that Liu had not given any other instructions, so she shook her head.
"Then I'll go back first." Xia Tian supported Cuiyun's hand and walked out of the house. Her legs were numb from kneeling just now.
When passing by Qiuyue, he said sinisterly, "Miss Qiuyue, think about Aunt Qi, you should know what to say, right?"
She wasn't threatening her, but giving her a reminder!
Thinking about Aunt Qi and her family, if she were a smart person, she would know that Liu was not worthy of their loyalty at all.
She just wanted to plant a thorn in Qiuyue's heart, making her think from time to time whether she should be so devoted to Liu!
Qiuyue shuddered and looked at Xia Tian who was walking away with a complicated expression. She only returned to Huarui Hall after he was out of sight.
Seeing her return, Liu asked, "Has Xia been kneeling for half an hour?"
"Madam, he knelt for half an hour." Qiuyue's eyes flashed, but in the end she didn't tell anyone how Xia Tian knelt.
Anyway, this was not considered as deceiving the lady. Xia had indeed knelt for half an hour.
"She's smart!" Liu snorted. This was just the beginning, and she would suffer later.
If anyone dares to act rashly in front of her, she will let her know who is the head of the family.
After lunch, Xia Tian originally wanted to take a nap, but Liu sent someone to call her.
It was still in the courtyard where she handled affairs. When she entered, no one from the Liu family was there. There was only a pile of account books on the table.
And there is Qiuyue standing next to her, who is hard to describe!
"Qiuyue, where is the Madam?" Xia Tian asked curiously when he didn't see Liu.
"The lady didn't come. She asked me to tell the Crown Prince's wife that all the accounts in this pile of account books must be checked today, and she wants to know the results tomorrow morning." Qiuyue relayed Liu's instructions in a flat tone.
Xia Tian raised an eyebrow, "Anything else?"
"No more." Qiuyue replied with her eyes lowered.
It’s good that it’s gone!
"Cuiyun, pick up the account books and let's go back." Xia Tian said as he picked up half of the stack.
"Yes, ma'am." Cuiyun agreed and nimbly held the remaining account books in her arms.
Seeing Xia Tian about to leave with the account book, Qiu Yue suddenly became anxious, "Madam, isn't this inappropriate?"
The lady meant for her to reconcile the accounts here, but she didn't tell her to take the account book back.
"What's wrong with that? Madam didn't say where to check. Anyway, I can get the results tomorrow morning." Xia Tian said confidently, and left without waiting for Qiuyue's reaction.
Qiuyue's face looked ugly. This wife of the Crown Prince was really cunning. She always managed to misinterpret what the Lady meant and made it impossible for her to refute.
He stamped his feet and went back to report to Liu.
She dared not hide this matter!
If Liu finds out, she will be in big trouble!
Qiuyue returned to Huarui Hall and found Liu sitting on the kang in the warm room drinking tea.
"Madam, the Crown Prince's wife took the account book to Jinglan Garden for inspection."
Liu paused holding the teacup for a long time before speaking, "Okay, I understand."
This damn girl really knows how to take advantage of loopholes!
Qiuyue was relieved when she saw that Liu didn't react much.
She was afraid that Liu would get angry and take her anger out on her.
Xiatian returned to the yard, put the account book on the table, and went to take a nap first.
I waited until I woke up before flipping through the book casually.
These are the account books of Wu'an Marquis Mansion from five or six years ago. There is no need to check them at all.
Liu must have dug out these account books just to torment her.
The total amount was recorded at the end of these account books. Xia Tian just flipped through them casually and threw them aside.
She took out her unfinished portrait and continued painting it.
The next day, when paying her respects, Liu suddenly asked about the results of her audit yesterday.
Xia Tian preparedly pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Liu. "Madam, the account book verification results are all here. Please take a look."
Liu took the paper and asked Qiuyue to check the numbers on the back of the account book.
Xia Tian curled his lips in disdain. It would be strange if this could be found out!
The data was originally from the account book she copied, what's the point of checking it!
After checking, Qiuyue said they were the same, and Liu even praised her in a hypocritical manner.
Xia Tian also pretended to be modest and said, "It's still my wife who taught me well."
After paying her respects to the old lady, Liu asked her to follow her to do the work.
This time, I wasn't even given the chance to go back for dinner.
Xia Tian watched Liu assigning tasks to the housekeepers in various places. Since she had nothing to do for the time being, she found a chair nearby and sat down. She took out a bun from the space and ate it slowly.
Liu frowned when she saw this, "Xia, I'm assigning tasks here. Who told you to eat?"
Xia Tian looked innocent and said, "Madam, there's no rule that prohibits eating, right?"
After saying that, he took out another bun and handed it in Liu's direction, "Madam, are you hungry? I have another one."
"Xia, do you have any manners at all? What kind of occasion is this? Is this how you, the Crown Prince's wife, learned the etiquette?" Liu slapped the table angrily.
"The emperor doesn't lack hungry soldiers! No matter how busy we are, we need to have a full stomach to work well!" Xia Tian withdrew his hand and muttered.
Liu's face turned pale with anger. "Alright, since you think I'm teaching you the rules on purpose by starving you, then fine, I'll make sure you're full before you start working today."
Liu said this through gritted teeth, then turned and ordered Qiuyue, "Go to the kitchen and bring all the buns to me."
"Yes, ma'am!" Qiuyue responded, retreated respectfully, and called two little girls to go to the kitchen to get buns.
Xia Tian sat calmly and continued to finish the bun in his hand.
After a while, the little girl came in carrying two large food boxes.
Qiuyue put the food box on the table, opened the lid, and then stood aside respectfully.
Liu said with a gloomy expression, "Put them all in front of the Crown Prince's wife."
Qiuyue took the lunch box and placed it on the table next to Xia Tian.
"Eat. If you can't finish it, don't go back today." Liu looked at her with interest.
The housekeeper who was listening to instructions saw the two large food boxes of buns, at least fifty or sixty in number, and looked at Xia Tian with a gloating look.
Xia Tian calmly confirmed, "Madam, are you going to finish both of these large food boxes?"
"Yes, you must finish it!" Liu said firmly!
