Hua Jintang nodded and said: "Of course I have to leave it to you. I have prepared all the account books. You can check them at any time. As for the people in the shop, they are loyal and can help you manage it. You
If you don’t like them, you can replace them.”
Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect Hua Jintang to be so cheerful.
But I didn't believe him easily.
Smiling and nodding: "I can rest assured that big brother can do things, so thank you for that. I don't have any available manpower around me. If big brother is free, you can help me take care of it. As for the account books, I will take them back to check first."
With that said, he took Ye Yibai away.
The two of them left Hua's house without saying hello to Hua Shao.
On the carriage, Ye Yibai asked: "Yanyan, don't you like eldest brother?"
"Does Xiaobai like it?"
"I don't like it. I think he is always smiling, and his smile is too fake."
"Yes, the kind of evil person who is superficial is not as scary as the person who hides his knife behind his smile."
"Then why does Yanyan ask him to help you manage the shop?" Ye Yibai said in confusion.
"He has already voluntarily handed over his account books. If I hold on to him any longer, there is no guarantee that he will not do anything to the store. Instead of doing this, it is better to let him relax his guard first and let us take away the real power from him bit by bit.
That’s it.”
In the past, Hua Yanxi trusted Hua Jintang too much and asked him to do almost everything.
Nowadays, she is helpless with those shops. Instead of returning with an empty shell, she might as well take her time.
Now that the account books and land deeds are in her hands, she doesn't believe that Huajintang can cause any trouble.
"Yan Yan, will your father hate you? You won't let him marry his wife."
Hua Yanxi sneered: "You think he won't hate me if I don't do this. Do you think his compromise today is really giving up? If I'm not wrong, he must have other plans now."
Saying that, Hua Yanxi touched Ye Yibai's head helplessly: "Forget it, you don't understand even if I tell you."
Ye Yibai slapped her hand away: "I understand very well! At this time, you should stay at Hua's house and get all your things back before leaving, otherwise you will have long nights and dreams!"
"Yeah, Xiaobai is the smartest." Hua Yanxi agreed.
Ye Yibai rolled his eyes at her, turned his back and ignored her.
Stupid woman.
He was trying to help her, but he couldn't even tell.
Hua Shao and Hua Jintang simply wanted to paralyze her, and then hollow out the Hua family bit by bit, and then she would have nothing to hold them back.
You can't even see this.
When Hua Yanxi saw Ye Yibai turning his back and getting angry, she couldn't help but reach out and poke him.
Ye Yibai shook his body: "Don't touch me!"
"Why are you so angry? After all, the fifth prince is our home. We can't stay here forever and never go back. Besides, your father probably already knows about this matter. If he summons us, we will
Not being in the capital, doesn't this give the Seventh Prince and Hua Yun'er the opportunity to smear us?"
Ye Yibai thought about it for a while and realized that this was also the case. He couldn't help but turn half of his body and looked at her with empty eyes: "Do you really think so?"
"Then what else can I think about?" Hua Yanxi was helpless.
"Didn't you see the Seventh Emperor's brother leaving and you eagerly followed him back?"
"Ye Yibai, if you say such things to me again, I will be really angry!" Hua Yanxi said angrily.
Ye Yibai curled his lips: "I think you are angry because I said something that was on your mind. Unless you promise me one thing, I will believe that you are not thinking about your seventh brother."
"What's the matter?" Hua Yanxi said angrily.
Hearing this, Ye Yibai turned over and sat up, and suddenly pressed Hua Yanxi against the car wall. His eyes were bright: "Unless you have a baby with me, you will never forget your seventh brother."
"Don't even think about it." Hua Yanxi squeezed out two words from between her teeth.
"Huh, I see you don't care about me at all."
"It has nothing to do with that."
No matter what Hua Yanxi said after that, Ye Yibai insisted that she could not forget her old love for Ye Juechen. In the end, she reluctantly agreed not to tie him up when they slept together in the future, so she reluctantly stopped making trouble.
Not long after returning to the Fifth Prince's Mansion, a servant came to report that the Seventh Prince had sent back all the dowry.
Hua Yanxi did not go there in person, but handed the dowry list to Cui'er and asked her to take stock.
Cui'er's hands were shaking as she held the list: "Miss, this is a big deal, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."
"You can't do this little thing well, and you still want to stay with me?"
Cui'er panicked when she heard this and said quickly: "I'll go right now, slave."
Ye Yibai was lying on the bed rolling walnuts. After Cui'er left, he looked at Hua Yanxi who was checking the account book.
"Yanyan, I want to take a look."
Hua Yanxi didn't even raise her head: "What are you looking at? You can't read, so it won't be of any use if you go there."
"Who said I can't read?" Ye Yibai turned over and sat up.
Hearing this, Hua Yanxi raised her head and stared at him: "I remember, the day after I married into the house, you said that you couldn't write."
Naturally, Ye Yibai didn't remember that he had said such words before.
Seeing Hua Yanxi looking at him with suspicious eyes, she ran to Hua Yanxi's side, tugged on her sleeve and said: "I don't know how to learn, Yanyan teaches me, and when I learn how to do it, I can help you."
Account settled."
Hua Yanxi was surprised: "I really have to learn, but it's very hard."
"I'm not afraid of hardship."
"Okay."
After saying that, he pulled him to sit on the stool next to him and took out a Three-Character Sutra: "I will recite one sentence, and you will learn one sentence. When you have learned it, you will start writing. This will be faster."
"Yanyan, I'm very smart."
Hua Yanxi didn't say anything after hearing this. However, it didn't take long for her to discover that Ye Yibai was really smart.
She only taught him to read the Three-Character Classic twice, and he actually learned to memorize it. The words he wrote were just a little crooked, but he still managed to write them anyway.
Hua Yanxi said in surprise: "Xiao Bai, your memory is really good."
Ye Yibai raised the corners of his lips proudly.
"According to your progress, you will soon be able to keep up with the progress of ordinary people. It's almost time today. Let's wash up and rest." Hua Yanxi looked at the sky and said.
Hearing this, Ye Yibai's eyes brightened slightly, but he responded obediently: "Okay."
After he came back from bathing, he saw Hua Yanxi still sitting on the table looking at her account books, doing exactly the same thing as before he left.
Ye Yibai stepped forward directly, picked him up and walked to the inner room, shouting: "Go to sleep."
"Ye Yibai, I haven't finished settling my accounts yet." Hua Yanxi struggled.
"Yanyan, you can look at the account book tomorrow, but you can't keep it until tomorrow. Besides, girls who sleep too late will age quickly."
Hua Yanxi pursed her lips, looked at the account book on the table, and saw that she was already sitting on the bed, and sighed: "Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Ye Yibai reached out to help her take off her clothes. Hua Yanxi said warily: "I will do it myself."
