The Chinese New Year is coming, and the two aunts and Yang are busy. Even the old lady needs to meet the housekeeper. Her dowry needs to be done. Although most of the sons are worried about outside, they also have to look at the account book.

Seeing that the old lady was not in good spirits and could not overwork, Zi Lan pulled Shuhui to help her and read the account book for the old lady. It was much easier to hear than to see.

"Hey, wait, grandma, why is the income and expenditure of this account not right? Why do you always lose money? You lose money every year? Can you still do this business?"

Zi Lan was reciting the account book and reminiscing it and realized something was wrong. It was obviously because the people below stole it and were cheating.

The old lady smiled and nodded, "Then what do you think is going on? It doesn't matter if you boldly say it."

Zilan knew that this was the school entrance examination by her grandmother, so she pondered for a while and said, "I think it's one aspect that is difficult to do in business, but the people below must be cheating.

If you want to prove this, you will know if there is a private outdoor room? If you can’t do anything by yourself, no one can escape from the account manager. There must be a lot of people around you.”

"Be good, there are such people. Our family has strict rules. How can there be such a thing? But he is not afraid of finding out if he does this. Can my grandfather tolerate such people? And don't my father check it out often?"

Shuhui tilted her head and was thinking.

Zi Lan was reminded by Shuhui and her expression became more and more serious. "It is impossible for my uncle to see it. There must be other reasons. What makes him choose to remain silent."

She thought intently that this kind of slave who steals money and treats the master as a fool must not tolerate it. She could think about whether her grandfather and uncle could not have thought it would be impossible.

She looked at the old lady and carefully found that there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she looked confident, and suddenly a word jumped into her mind.

"Rebel."

Zi Lan shouted, staring at the boss with his eyes, pointed at the account book, and said in a positive tone: "This big manager must have committed to another family. This family must be not bad in power, at least not much worse than ours, so my uncle is concerned about it and he will be more careful when dealing with it."

Shuhui also widened her eyes. If this was the case, there would be a lot of things to do. She couldn't react for a while, but she understood that this slave betrayed our family and went to join other powerful people as backers.

The old lady smiled and nodded with satisfaction, "No, I have a brain, I can analyze so many things by just looking at the account book. At your age, it's pretty good.

You guessed it roughly right, but it was not that it was slightly worse than ours, but that it was just as good as possible. Keep this thing that you bear to the master first. Your grandfather and your uncle have discovered it long ago, just waiting for the right opportunity to kill two birds with one stone."

Shuhui immediately looked at Zi Lan with a very admiring look, "Sister, you are so smart, you guessed it right."

Zi Lan sneered, "What's the matter? I'm just following the clues. I can see things that I can't see in a few years. Is it better than me?

How is that possible? Since it is impossible to say that something must be wrong here, can a slave be better than his uncle no matter how powerful he is?

So what if I deal with it? If I don’t deal with it, it means that I will definitely have a backer. It must be someone outside who makes my uncle care. If I think about it according to this idea, I will understand it.”

Shuhui pondered for a moment, and thought Zilan was right.

"Yes, he has voted for our political opponents. All he has to do now is to hold on to the handle and even the opponents have to fight together.

Otherwise, next time I will not steal money but come to the house to kill people. I will also let you know that you don’t think that it’s clear outside, and your enemies will not let you go.

Don’t be rude, it will only harm your family.”

"yes."

Zilan and Shuhui nodded together, with a serious expression.

This is also the first time that they have tentatively discovered that they are exposed to some dark side. If they cannot find it, they may teach them later, but if they find it, they will tell them the truth.

Let them know that as a lady, you should not be too noble and arrogant. You must understand that the outside world is cruel.

The old lady was very satisfied with the results and closed her eyes slightly to rest. Zilan glanced at Shuhui and then started to read the account book.

I helped the old lady read the account book, and I was busy until the end of the year before I finished my work. Zilan really learned a lot of things, which was completely different from the way modern people do things.

The old lady did not avoid them when she met the manager, and let them listen and learn while they were away. She would take the exam after they left.

If you break it apart, you will teach you who is smart and loyal, who is always smart and smart, who is greedy and timid, who is greedy and timid but has strong abilities, and can turn a blind eye and will explain in detail.

If these things are not taught by elders, even if there are nannies, they will not be able to learn the essence. The vision and perspective of superiors and servants are also completely different.

Zi Lan benefited a lot and felt very moved that he was not blindly arrogant. The things learned in modern times may not be all applicable to ancient times, so it is correct to learn more.

After getting Kong Shuhui, he said, "Xuan'er doesn't show up all day and learns the rules all the time. Especially when she doesn't come to pay her respects to her grandmother, she can't learn many things. No wonder her grandmother doesn't like her.

Even if you feed the things to your mouth, you have to open your mouth and continue."

Zi Lan also nodded, understanding the difficulty of an orphan, but the more you do this, the more you need to work harder and make yourself live a better life. Please give more filial piety to the elderly, and you can always hear one or two useful things. Isn’t this yours?

When she was learning to make perfume, no one explained it. She tried every means to curry favor with the master, serve tea and water, and just wanted to stay by her side and not be driven out. She was very satisfied with taking a look. This is how things were learned little by little.

Like Xuan'er, no one will like it even in the company.

Zilan smiled, "Everyone has his own ideas. She doesn't want to play with us. Maybe she thinks that she can't talk to us, and there is no need to force her. Can a cow be forced to hold her head if she doesn't drink water?"

"You're right. Do you want to stir in the afternoon when you're free?"

"Well, I want to make perfume. By the way, I made two incense items before. If you go back to your grandfather's house, I will give them to my two sisters. It is my New Year gift."

Zilan has always been in communication with the Ma sisters, giving each other small gifts and gadgets, and her relationship is still very good. It’s almost the Chinese New Year, so she prepared a scented play for her good friend in advance.

"Good sister, what about mine? You can't forget me, I want both."

Shuhui leaned on her shoulder and acted coquettishly, and her domineering request was unique.

"Okay, just tell me what you want, I'll do it for you."

"Hehe! I knew my sister was the best for me."

Shuhui smiled happily.
