C56 (1/2)

This was still called the Light Province? It was only a small part of it, which meant that Gu Yun still had a larger part of it that he did not give to her. How scary would that be?

Xie Jingxi was speechless, she had always felt that Gu Yun was not as simple as he seemed, but she did not expect him to be, not that simple either. Xie Jingxi had roughly looked at him, and just the small businesses in Gu Yun's mouth were all worth more than one Marquis Mansion, these so-called big businesses, were not so simple as to not only hold half of the economic lifeline of the capital.

”You don't need to be too concerned, these businesses are just there for you to practice, you don't need to worry about losing money. Once you do, these will be given to the people under you to do, the family business will be left to you.”

Just look at her rich tone. Any one of these businesses could support a large family, but he did not feel sorry for her at all. It was no wonder that his betrothal gifts seemed to be free of money.

Xie Jingxi looked at Gu Yun and kissed him, as if he knew him from the past, ”What, are you being an idiot? Don't look at me like that, it makes me feel guilty.”

”How about we move out?”

Xie Jingxi was stunned for a long time before saying this, thinking that there was still no need to go to the Ministry of War to care about those useless personnel, wasn't this just burning money? The two of them brought the old lady everywhere, and would be able to live for a few lifetimes easily, why stay at the Marquis Mansion to look at other people's faces? Xie Jingxi did not understand, Gu Yun had so much money under his command, what else was there to leave behind, if it was her, he would have already left.

Hearing her words, Gu Yun was so happy that his eyebrows jumped, ”If you really want to move out, that's perfect. I don't want to stay in Marquis Mansion either.

”No, I mean, we should just leave the capital. What do the Ministry of War Department have to do with us?”

Gu Yun saw that she was sneaky, looking like a rich rich rich girl, wanting to walk with his own body. Gu Yun laughed, but was helpless against her, ”What are you thinking, it's not the right time to go out now, but if you don't want to stay at the Marquis Mansion, I still have a courtyard to stay at the outskirts of the capital. If you think it's too far, we can move in.

Gu Yun was not in a good condition, finding a good place to stay was not a problem, if he were to establish a new sect in the capital, then it would mean that he had to split his family with Marquis Mansion, and his days would not be safe, but if Gu Yun insisted on going to Ministry of War, moving to the outskirts of the capital was too far of a distance, and it would not be convenient for him to go back and forth.

”I'll just say it. Grandmother is in the capital, I don't want to be too far away from her.”

never thought that he would enter the Imperial Court so quickly. His previous plans had also changed, and he would probably still have to stay at the Marquis Mansion for the time being.

took her to play a few times in the outskirts of the capital, and ate all the food at the various restaurants in the capital. She was probably especially treasured that she had nothing to do during these few days, and did not mention any of the Ministry of War books or other troublesome matters, which was exactly what he meant by ”honey for oil”.

On the day she entered the job, Xie Jingxi was already awake. She wanted to accompany him to breakfast, but was pushed back onto the bed by Gu Yun, ”Why are you up so early, there's no harm in sleeping a little longer.”

Xie Jingxi's new wife's days could be said to be extremely comfortable, so she didn't need to attend to her in-laws in the morning. Gu Yun had spoilt her days with her as well, so he would accompany her to wake up late every day to pay respects at the Lady Zeng.

Afraid that Gu Yun would think too much, he obediently lay back down. In truth, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, as if she was watching him go to the guillotine. Gu Yun bent over and tapped her forehead, ”Be good at home.

Gu Yun was afraid that it would disturb her sleep, and had gotten up not too early, or else he would casually bring some pastries for breakfast on the way. He left in a hurry, and the moment he left, Xie Jingxi would not be able to lie down, so she called Ming Yu in to help her get up.

”Miss, Young Master told you to sleep for a while, it's not even dawn yet.”

”I can't fall asleep anyway, so I might as well get up. After breakfast later, call Bai Cao and the others over.”

Bai Cao was one of the three girls that Gu Yun had given her. Afraid that she wouldn't understand, Gu Yun found an expert in the accounts to follow her, but in reality, she didn't need to learn this. But what Xie Jingxi did not know was that as long as she had Zhao Zhang outside and Bai Cao in the tent, nothing big could go wrong. Did she really think that Gu Yun would always do things the way he loved others, grabbing all the important things, he did not need to worry too much about these things.

Bai Cao and Xie Jingxi's imagination were different, they thought that she was an intelligent girl, only after seeing her did they realize that she wasn't much older than Xie Jingxi. Her round face was very cute and pleasing, it didn't seem like she was the first person in the tent.

”Good morning Madam.”

She was the daughter-in-law of the manager of a rouge shop in Beijing. The couple had followed Gu Yun for many years, and the daughter-in-law was very straightforward, looking more like an accountant than Bai Cao.

”Madam, this is Zhang's account office. He has been under Eldest Young Master's command for many years and is an expert. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask.”

”Ming Yu, serve tea for the two masters.” Xie Jingxi politely told them to sit down, ”You two are people that the young master believes in, so there's no need to be so formal here. I called you here for no other reason, I just wanted to get a rough understanding of the accounts.

In fact, Xie Jingxi would still read the account book, but there was no need for her to behave in front of others, and furthermore, she had the intention to test him. After all, no matter how loyal one was to Gu Yun, one would not necessarily have to be completely loyal to her.

Bai Cao chuckled, ”Madam is a really easy-going person, in fact it's nothing much, just checking the entrance and exit geometry, the amount of costs, the amount of profits, all of the books in Madam's hands are all handmade by me, when I was learning the accounts, I also had the same headache as Madam, and after I got used to it, I used my own way to set up a new accounting method, it should be easier to get started.”

Xie Jingxi had seen it before, and it was true that it was much better than the account books she had seen at Marquis Mansion. She had thought that Gu Yun only had a lot of capable people under him, but had never thought that it was actually done by this little girl.

Bai Cao's parents had all followed Gu Yun to his tent before, so Bai Cao, this girl, had always been with her parents the moment she could talk. She knew how to use her chopsticks to make calculations, and her words were always written in the account book she learned from.

”I didn't expect you to be so capable at such a young age.”
