Chapter 842 Live like a human being
Shi Anxia took the account book, lowered his head and flipped through it, his eyes quickly scanning the pages.
The accounts were neat and tidy, the income was clearly listed, and the structure was clear, making it easy to see at a glance. Shi Anxia couldn't help but sigh, "Aunt Han is really a talent."
She knew last year that the shops and farms run by Aunt Han were the most profitable. But she didn't expect that she had so many ideas and listed several pertinent suggestions at the end of the account book, which were all to the point and really rare.
"He usually doesn't show off his abilities, but he actually has such abilities." Shi Anxia closed the account book, "This method is feasible."
Yao Sheng nodded. "If we follow her method, the revenue can be increased by another 30%. Let's try it out for a while and then promote it to other manors and shops."
Shi Anxia laughed, "My father is indeed lucky, but his character is not good. He can't keep people or money."
Yao Sheng was used to seeing Shi Chengxuan say this, and couldn't help but say a few more words, "Your mother left him and became Mr. Chu Sheng. Aunt Han left him and became famous. I heard that those aunts..."
She turned to ask Tang Chujun, "What's his last name? He's an extraordinary tea artist and is doing a great job in the tea shop. I heard he was appointed as the manager last year?"
"Zhou, Zhou Yuping." Tang Chujun sighed, "That man can tell the origin and type of tea by smelling it. He is a capable person. But he was confined in the backyard and got covered in dust. Now he is released... Haha, a few years ago, someone from He's Trading Company came to poach him and promised a large sum of money."
When Shi Anxia mentioned this, she laughed, "Mother is also a strange person. Who has ever seen a mistress who ran away from a divorce take a group of concubines with her? I heard that Zhou refused a large sum of money and told people that she was my mother's person in life and my mother's dead person in death."
Several women couldn't help but burst into laughter. Bei Hui also laughed uncontrollably, thinking to herself that I am the master's person in life and the master's dead in death.
Tang Chujun spat several times, "I don't know what this Zhou Yuping said outside. No matter whether he is dead or alive, you should live well. Live like a human being and show that man that there is no way to survive without him."
Shi Chengxuan, who was practicing calligraphy, felt his ears getting hot and couldn't help but snort, "I wonder who is thinking about me again. Humph! I'm not someone who can be thought of by anyone."
Chang Wu: “…”
Master, all the money in the backyard has been dispersed, and you are living under someone else's roof now. How can you not be so confident?
Obviously not. Shi Chengxuan raised his head and said, "Chang Wu, do you think my handwriting is elegant and vigorous? Does it have the style of my Xia Er?"
Chang Wu: “…”
Could you please not ask such sharp and difficult questions, Master?
I heard that if you keep lying against your conscience, you will commit the sin of lying and will continue to be a slave in your next life.
Madam Gu came in from outside the courtyard and asked Shi Chengxuan, "I'm going to the Marquis' Mansion to deliver some things to the Marquis's wife. Do you want to go with me?"
Shi Chengxuan shook his head, "No."
I continued to practice calligraphy seriously and didn't want to pay attention to Madam Gu. Humph!
Madam Gu didn't care and turned away.
Chang Wu saw Madam Gu off. After all, he was living under someone else's roof. His master didn't have the necessary social skills, but he, as a servant, had to have them.
Ugh……
Madam Gu paused and asked Chang Wu, "What's wrong with your grandfather? He seems unhappy? His daughter-in-law is pregnant with the heir of the Shi family, and he doesn't even go back to check on such a big thing?"
Chang Wu answered truthfully, "I'm not mentally prepared yet."
Madam Gu: “…”
Chang Wu explained, "Our grandfather still can't accept the fact that he is going to be a grandfather. He said he hasn't grown up yet."
Madam Gu: “!!!”
Fortunately, this was her benefactor. If it was someone else, she would have picked up the feather duster and swung it at him.
He is in his forties but still hasn’t grown up!
Madam Gu had a heart attack, "Take good care of your immature grandfather. In my opinion, he will not only be a grandfather, but also a grandfather-in-law very soon."
Chang Wu told Shi Chengxuan what he had said.
Shi Chengxuan went out for a drink that night.
I felt that if I didn't drink anymore, I would get old! But I went back to Gu's house without getting drunk, and suddenly I lost interest in drinking and listening to music.
He thought, he is really old. He already has grandchildren.
After several days, Shen Siyuan heard about the incident and came in person to check the patient's condition.
He still didn't show any signs of pregnancy, and his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. He went home feeling depressed and even drank two glasses of wine.
His wife Li Jinxiu asked, "What are you worried about, my husband?"
Shen Siyuan shook his head, not knowing where to start. The next day, he went to the Imperial Hospital to find Mrs. Anguo Liang Yanbing, "How about you find a reason to come to the princess's house and take her pulse?"
Liang Yanbing smiled, "Do I need to find an excuse to go and check the princess's pulse? It's like my own home. When will you move out? If you move out, I'll move in."
Envoy Shen: “…”
This is off topic! Before he even moved out, someone else was already eyeing him.
He couldn't help but retort to her, "Shangshu Mansion is so big that it can't accommodate you. Why do you want to move to Young Master's Mansion?"
Liang Yanbing argued, "You don't understand. The Young Master's Mansion has a magnetic field that always attracts everyone to run there. My husband is in Chang'an County and can't come back for a while, so I want to move into the Young Master's Mansion with my youngest son. Anyway, my youngest son is adopted by Yao Sheng, and she can take care of the child and cultivate their mother-son relationship."
Shen Yuanshi was convinced, "Then why don't you let your son have the surname Yao?"
"Eh! You know what, I had planned to give my son the surname Yao." Liang Yanbing felt a little regretful, "But Yao Sheng was not happy about it, saying that the Yao family was not worthy. I could tell that she had no feelings for the Yao family, so I gave up the idea."
After some idle chatter, Liang Yanbing finally got to the point, "What happened to the princess?"
Upon hearing this, Envoy Shen's face fell, "I heard from Madam Meng that the princess is pregnant."
"Isn't that a great joy?" Liang Yanbing was very happy. "What else do you have to doubt about Madam Meng's craftsmanship?"
Dean Shen was speechless and could only say, "Go check it out first."
Liang Yanbing listened to his heavy words, and the joy in her heart also faded a lot. She immediately went home and took the one-year-old child to the young master's residence, stuffed him into Yao Sheng's arms, and smiled without revealing any trace, "Sister, your son misses you."
Yao Sheng held the fat boy in his arms, "Qianhe has become a lot heavier. I can hardly hold him anymore."
Liang Yanbing said, "The first word this kid learned was 'mother'. Sister, you have to be responsible for her."
Yao Sheng couldn't help but glared at her, "Then are you willing to leave him with me for the next few days?"
Liang Yanbing was eager to do so. "Why would you be reluctant to let him go? I'd be happy to let him live his whole life. I'm just afraid that he'll tire you out."
Yao Sheng said happily, "Not tired, not tired. I'll be fine after finishing my chores in the morning. Anyway, Xia'er likes Qianhe too, so let her get close to her."
"Oh... Mom..." Little Qianhe waved his chubby little white hands, hugged Yao Sheng and smeared his saliva all over her face.
Several people went to Tinglan Courtyard. Liang Yanbing took the princess' pulse without leaving any trace, and went back to the Imperial Hospital alone to find Shen Siyuan.
