    In the morning, Gu Jiu went to Furongyuan to greet her.

    She came early, and when she was approaching Furongyuan, she saw Xie's family with someone going out from a distance.

    Gu Jiu stopped and froze for a moment, "My wife went out early in the morning, where is this going?"

    Qingmei asked: "Girl, do you want to follow along and have a look?"

    Gu Jiu nodded, "It's all here, let's follow it and have a look."

    Gu Jiu was really curious. At this early, Xie's appearance was so aggressive and Xingshi was asking for trouble.

    At the beginning, she also wondered if Xie's trouble was with Gu Zhen.

    However, seeing that Xie's was going to the Council Chamber, Gu Jiu suddenly realized.

    Xie clearly went to see the eldest wife Zhang, and made it clear that he was looking for Zhang's fault.

    In the council chamber, the women in charge lined up neatly, waiting for Mrs. Zhang to speak.

    But at this moment, a little maid rushed in with a panic expression, "Mrs., the second wife is here."

    The eldest wife Zhang raised her eyebrows, "I'll be here as soon as I'm coming. What a panic. You all stand aside."

    The housekeepers quickly retreated to the side and gave up the hall.

    Soon, Xie's brought someone to the chamber.

    Zhang showed a smiling face, "Yeah, it's really rare, how come my younger siblings come here today."

    Xie looked at Zhang with a smile, "Of course it's because I have something to tell my sister-in-law."

    "Sister, please sit down."

    Zhang pointed to a chair side by side.

    Xie's sit down without letting it go.

    The maid Shaoyao brought a bowl of health soup, "Madam, drink something to warm your stomach first."

    Zhang took the soup bowl with a smile and drank the health soup slowly, without asking what Xie was going to talk about.

    After drinking halfway, Zhang suddenly looked up at Xie, and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot that my younger brother and sister are here. Peony, what are you doing? Go and prepare a bowl of health soup for the second wife. "

    "No need." Xie's refused. "Thank you for your kindness. I didn't come to drink a bowl of health soup."

    Zhang gave the soup bowl to Peony, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, "My younger brother and sister just said that I have something to tell me, I will be free, so you can tell me if you have anything. I'll listen."

    Xie smiled, stretched out his hand, Chunhe put the account book in her hand.

    Xie patted the account book heavily on the table, "Sister-in-law, please explain this account book to me."

    The eldest wife Zhang raised her eyebrows, "The ledger is the ledger, what can be explained."

    Xie was annoyed, "A banquet in a mere banquet cost 1,800 taels. Our second room alone bears 1,500 taels. Sister-in-law, don't be kidding."

    The eldest wife, Zhang, looked down and looked at Xie with a serious face, "It's about money exchanges, I never make a joke. Brother and sister, do you mean there is a problem with this account book?"

    "Exactly!" Xie's gritted teeth.

    Zhang sneered to himself, "Excuse me, where is the problem?"

    Xie's mouth was dumbfounded, "You have a strange account book, who knows where the problem lies."

    Zhang sneered, "Sister, are you kidding? You don't even know where there is a problem with the account book, so you ran to Xingshi to ask the crime. Dare to ask the account office to do a mistake in the account book. If I knew it, I would directly report a number to you. , It’s simple and clear, so the younger siblings don’t have to worry about not being able to read the books."

    "You!" Xie's trembling with anger, roared, "There is a problem with this account book. How could it be possible to spend so much money on a small banquet."

    Zhang snorted, "Since my younger brother and sister say there is a problem with the ledger, then find out. My ugly story is at the forefront. If you can't find the problem with the ledger, your younger sister must apologize to me.

    As soon as I touched my mouth, I said that I was a fake account book, and my younger siblings were too self-righteous.

    What is a mere banquet? Do you know that holding a banquet at 1,800, in the boundary of the capital, in a family like us, is already extraordinarily frugal.

    Did you know that the Hou Mansion held such a banquet for the same banquet, and it cost less than three or four thousand taels.

    Brother and sister, you won't stay in the northwest for long, thinking that Beijing is the same as the northwest, and everything is as cheap as Baijian. "

    Xie clan's anger writhed and asked Chunhe, "have anyone come?"

    Chunhe was also anxious and looked out the door.

    "Madam, the executive business is here."

    Senior Sanfu ran to the chamber panting. Before he could catch his breath, he heard Xie questioning him, "Where is Master Ma?"

    "Mrs. Qi, the yamen is busy with official duties, so Master Ma went to the yamen early in the morning."

    Xie's face was stiff, staring at Gao Sanfu, a good deed for his old lady.

    Senior Sanfu lowered his head, anxious.

    Zhang gave a mocking smile and asked, "Sister, do you want me to arrange for you to check the account?"

    Xie gritted his teeth, "Don't worry about my sister-in-law. Senior Sanfu, you'll settle the account."

    Senior Sanfu's mouth was dumbfounded.

    Zhang smiled, and immediately said: "Prepare a bench and pen and ink abacus to facilitate the executives to settle accounts."

    "Yes!"

    The mother-in-law answered, everything was ready in a blink of an eye.

    Just at this time, Gu Jiu walked in, "I heard that my wife needs someone who can settle accounts, so let me come."

    "you?"

    Xie frowned, thinking, why is this dead girl Gu Jiu here. Will she settle accounts?

    The eldest wife Zhang looked at Gu Jiu curiously, "Will Xiao Jiu settle the accounts?"

    Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Slightly knows how to do it."

    When he was in the yard, Gu Jiu had already heard the whole story.

    Gu Jiu didn't know if there was any problem with the ledger.

    Maybe there is, maybe not.

    However, Gu Jiu believed that Zhang would definitely not take the initiative to hand over a problematic ledger to Xie, nor would he be greedy for the money. I'm afraid the people below are fooling around.

    Seeing how Xie's Xingshi was asking about crimes, if the quarrel continued, Erfang and Dafang were afraid that they were going to avenge each other.

    Live together under the same roof, don't ask for peace, at least don't get enemies.

    So Gu Jiu simply stood up and settled Xie's account and settled the matter early.

    The eldest wife Zhang was very simple, "Prepare tables, chairs and benches for the second girl, pen and ink abacus."

    The women took their orders and prepared another set.

    Xie stared at Gu Jiu, "There is nothing about your children here, so what are you going to do?"

    Zhang said, "Brother and sister, you can’t say that. Gu Jiu is the girl in the second room. She settles the bill. I am not worried. You have nothing to worry about. You never think that the second girl is facing our big room. Right."

    Xie's face was stern, "Sister-in-law, this is the housework of our second room."

    Zhang smiled, "Okay, I won't speak."

    Gu Jiu smiled and said, "My wife needs someone who can settle the accounts, but Master Ma is not at home, so I will find someone temporarily. I happen to be able to settle the accounts, and I am a girl in the second room, so my wife doesn't need to worry about it. Said that my wife believes that executives can figure out this account book clearly."

    Gu Jiu simply picked up the ledger on the table and flipped through it at will.

    "Executive business, do you understand this ledger?"

    Senior Sanfu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "I can understand a little bit."

    Gu Jiu laughed, "Senior executives, it's not okay to understand a little bit."

    Senior Sanfu didn't speak, and looked at Xie with a guilty conscience.

    Gu Jiu also looked at Xie's, "How would you like your wife? Or is there a better candidate for your wife."

    Xie's face was stern and did not speak.

    Chunhe leaned into Xie's ear and whispered: "Madam, it's better to let the second girl have a try. Seeing the second girl's appearance, it seems that he will really settle the bill."

    Xie nodded secretly, "Second girl, do you really know how to settle accounts?"

    Gu Jiu nodded: "When I'm fine, I have learned a little."

    She looked at the ledger and found that it was neither a running account nor a double-entry bookkeeping method. It was a more complicated bookkeeping method than the double-entry bookkeeping method.

    People who don't understand look at the books, they must be a forehead lawsuit.

    However, this ledger could hardly fail Gu Jiu.

    Gu Jiu may be a little closer to other things. Mathematics has been good since childhood.

    Xie said: "Since you can settle the accounts, then you can sit down. You and the senior three fortunes will calculate together, and then compare the results of your calculations."

    Gu Jiu nodded with a smile, "My wife, don't worry."

    She looked at Senior Sanfu again, "Executive business, do you have an opinion?"

    Senior Sanfu shook his head repeatedly, "There are two girls here, the little one is fine."

    "It's so good."

    Gu Jiu took the lead to sit down, put the account book in front of him, picked up the abacus and started to fiddle.

    No one in the room spoke, only the sound of crackling and flipping the abacus.

    What a fast speed!

    Everyone in the room opened their eyes wide, looking at Gu Jiu's hand.

    That hand is so fast, it seems that you can accurately calculate the number of books without thinking at all.

    In everyone's eyes, in the end, there was only a hand that quickly moved the abacus and a hand that flipped through the pages of the ledger.

    Zhang raised his eyebrows and smiled, this Xiao Jiu didn't expect to have such skills. I don't know where she learned it from.

    Zhang looked towards Xie.

    The Xie family didn't give Gu Jiu the opportunity to be the director of the house, but Gu Jiu learned how to settle accounts without a teacher. I don't know what Xie would feel about it. It must be uncomfortable in my heart.

    Xie's is more than a taste, it's simply incredible.

    She narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the hand that Gu Jiu was using the abacus. Is this really Gu Jiu?

    That action, that appearance, the old accountant was beaten by her.

    How could she have such an ability? When did she learn it?

    Not to mention Xie's shock, even the maids of Qingmei were equally surprised.

    None of them knew that Gu Jiu still had this ability.

    But they were only surprised.

    The girl has even learned medical skills, and she has nothing to do with her calculations.

    Thinking of this, the maids of Qingmei suddenly calmed down and looked proud.

    The sound of turning the abacus suddenly stopped, and everyone's heart was shaken, and they all came back to their senses.

    Gu Jiu closed the account book, took a pen to write down various data on the blank paper, and then summarized and got a data.

    She said to the two wives, "The accounts have been settled."

    "How much?" Xie asked hurriedly.

    Gu Jiu smiled, "I'll wait for the executives to finish their work, and I will check a pair of accounts with him."

    Zhang nodded again and again, "Second girl is very thoughtful. Senior management, please settle the accounts quickly."

    Gu Jiu put the account book in front of Senior Sanfu, "Thanks to the executives."

    The third grader of senior high school waved his hands again and again, "The second girl is polite."

    Then, I saw him flipping through the ledger and picking up an abacus to settle accounts.

    The senior high school finals have no sense of beauty, and it took a long time to move the accounts. Compared with Gu Jiu's quick and beautiful accounts, it was weak.

    The maids and women whispered to each other.

    Comparing Senior Sanfu and Gu Jiu, it feels like this person is not good.

    Even Xie frowned and was very dissatisfied with Gao Sanfu.

    Why hadn't she noticed that the third-year high school was so slow to settle accounts, just like a tortoise.

    The tortoise-like senior third-year blessing, step by step accounted for.

    The maids brought three cups of tea and put them in front of Zhang's, Xie's, and Gu Jiu.

    Gu Jiu took a sip from his teacup.

    The eldest wife Zhang looked at her and asked, "Xiao Jiu, do you want to recheck your accounts?"

    Gu Jiu said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, no need for it."

    The eldest wife Zhang laughed, "It seems that you are very confident."

    "I shouldn't make a mistake in the calculation."

    Gu Jiu is very confident. This confidence comes from her confidence in her own strength.

    The eldest wife Zhang immediately chatted with Gu Jiu.

    Xie never spoke.

    After a long time, Gao Sanfu finally ended.

    The eldest wife Zhang hurriedly asked: "Executive affairs, have you figured it out clearly?"

    Gao Sanfu nodded.

    Xie directly asked: "How much?"

    Senior Sanfu hesitated for a while, and then said: "The account book totals 1,892, and the public school bears three hundred taels. The second room also needs to bear 1,500, which is two taels."

    "You are farting!"

    Xie became angry and almost smashed the teacup.

    Senior Sanfu looked dazed.

    The eldest wife Zhang looked down and laughed, "Speaking of which, the accountant is still ninety-two taels less. According to the senior management, brothers and sisters, your second room will have an additional 92 taels."

    Xie was so angry that he said, "The third year of senior high school can't settle accounts. There must be something wrong."

    The eldest wife Zhang smiled, "Second girl, how much do you count?"

    Gu Jiu handed the two ledger accounts to Zhang and Xie respectively.

    "The ledger I calculated is different from that of the senior management. The total is 1,792 taels. One hundred taels less than the senior management, and 80 taels less than the accounts of the clerk. Eliminate the three hundred that the public has to bear. Two, we need to pay 1,492 taels for the second room."

    The ledger accounts that Gu Jiu made were clear and clear at a glance.

    It is much better than reporting a number directly from the senior high school.

    Xie's finally cheered up.

    "Brother sister, I just said that there is a problem with your account book. No, the accountant is overwhelmed."

    The eldest wife, Zhang, couldn't understand Xie's bleak appearance, and directly stabbed her: "Why don't the younger brothers and sisters say, according to the accounts of the third year of senior high school, the accountant will be two or two if it is less calculated."

    Xie's face collapsed suddenly.

    The eldest wife Zhang ignored her and told the little maid: "Go and invite Mr. Wu from the accountant to tell him that his accounts have gone wrong. Let him quickly bring someone over to settle the accounts."

    The little maid took the order and left.

    The Xie family will not let Zhang go easily, "Sister-in-law, there is a problem with the ledger you gave, what do you say about this."

    The eldest wife Zhang sneered, "If there is any problem, wait until the person from the accountant comes. Don't worry, if there is a problem with the account book, the accountant will definitely be refunded and paid less. You will not need more money for the second room, let alone less. A penny."

    Xie was annoyed, "Sister-in-law, you haven't told me that a mere banquet cost so much. You treat me as stupid."

    The eldest wife Zhang sneered, "How much money was spent on the banquet yesterday, and the people in the account will come over with the receipts. My younger brothers and sisters personally check the receipts, and they should understand where the money is actually spent."

    After a pause, Zhang said again: "Moreover, the details given by the second girl have been written very clearly. Does the younger brother and sister really don't understand where the money is spent?"

    "you……"

    Xie was about to fight back when there was movement at the door, and Wu Guan from the accountant came over with someone.

    The eldest wife Zhang directly ordered him to quickly calculate the accounts.

    Whether it is ninety-two taels or eighty taels, in short, there is a problem with the ledger.

    Guan Shi didn't expect such a leak.

    Take someone to check and settle accounts.

    As time passed bit by bit, no one spoke.

    After half an hour passed, the accounts were checked clearly.

    The eldest wife Zhang asked: "How? Is there a problem with the accounts?"

    "Madam Qiqi, the accounts have been checked clearly. The second girl is right, and the total expenditure is 1,792 taels, which is 80 taels less than the original amount."

    Zhang couldn't help but look at Gu Jiu.

    It's amazing to settle accounts quickly and accurately.

    Xie suddenly became excited, "What do I say, I know there is a problem with this account book. Sister-in-law, what do you think about this matter?"

    The eldest wife Zhang faced Xie directly, "My younger brother and sister are right, there is indeed a problem with this account book.

    The money you need to pay for the second room is not one thousand five hundred taels, but one thousand four hundred and ninety two taels.

    For this mistake, I apologize, because I have not strictly supervised. "

    Xie laughed, but halfway through the laugh, he couldn't laugh anymore.

    "One thousand four hundred and ninety-two taels, brothers and sisters, give me money."
