BXBX NOVEL Chapter 34 part2
“Why do you want this Princess to examine them?” asked Mu Zi Ling. Was this all Uncle Fu came looking for her for? Why did he come without a reason for her to examine the account books?
“Princess, you are the mistress of the manor now, so naturally you would have to manage the finances. These account books are the manor’s expenses and incomes. Also this is the key to the storage room.”
Uncle Fu explained everything patiently. Then he took a key from his chest and gave it to Mu Zi Ling.
Mu Zi Ling was suddenly struck dumb. She didn’t take the key that Uncle Fu was trying to hand her. Was he trying get her to manage the manor?
He was even giving her the key to the gold storage. Even if she had the keys to the gold storage, she still wouldn’t dare to just take money out of there without consent. Was this Long Xiao Yu’s idea? What was he trying to do?
“Is this his highness’s idea?”
Although Mu Zi Ling had already guessed that it was Long Xiao Yu’s idea, she still asked.
“Yes. For the next few days, His Highness wants you to look through these account books. That way you can understand everything in the manor faster. He wants you to stay in the Manor if there is nothing important,” answered uncle Fu.
“This Princess doesn’t want to manage all this. Let whoever managed it in the past manage it,” said Mu Zi Ling ungratefully as she waved her hands.
Last night he was ignored her, now he wanted her to manage his manor. How could she let it go that easily? Did he really think that she could be called to do something whenever?
And not being allowed to leave the manor unless there was something important?
Sorry, she had lots of things to do. Right now, all she wanted to do was leave the manor.
Did Long Xiao Yu want her to act like a canary and take care of the manor? Instead of saying there was a chance for her to do such things, there wouldn’t even be a possibility.
“Princess, this was what His Highness had delivered,” Uncle Fu saw that Mu Zi Ling did not want to do it so he kindly reminded her.
Why was the Princess so weird? If His Highness wanted to let her manage the manor, then that meant he had already approved of her, yet she was being so ungrateful. There were so many other girls who wanted to come into the Qi Manor to become the mistress, however they didn\'t even have a chance.
“This Princess has her own matters to take care of, and really doesn’t have the time to manage all this. You guys can leave now,” Mu Zi Ling was becoming impatient.
Who cares if it was Long Xiao Yu who ordered it. Was uncle Fu reminding her that she should not disobey him? Then she would just purposely be ungrateful.
She didn’t want to do anything that involved him anymore. First he gave her a big stick, now he was giving her sweets. What else would he come up with for her to do?
“Princess, this old servant does not dare to disobey His Highness’s orders. Princess please, manage the manor,” Uncle Fu suddenly started to panic. He knelt down on the ground with a “pu tong” sound.
Everyone else behind Uncle Fu also knelt down and spoke in unison, “Princess, please, manage the manor!”
This was Mu Zi Ling’s first time seeing so many people kneeling down to her. She was starting to feel kind of helpless.
Why did all these people kneel down to her all of a sudden? However, why was this so ironic? She would actually be forced to manage the manor.
“You guys can all stand up,” said Mu Zi Ling calmly as she hid all of the helplessness in her heart.
“If the Princess does not manage the manor, then this old servant wouldn’t stand up!” said Uncle Fu firmly. He didn\'t dare to disobey his highness’s orders. He had set his heart to get the Princess to manage the manor.
“These servants also won\'t stand!” said everyone behind uncle Fu.
Mu Zi Ling was cut speechless. They were even using this trick on her. This uncle Fu knew that she really hated people kneeling down to her, and now he was going to keep kneeling until she agreed.
Moments later...
“Do I only have to look through all this?” asked Mu Zi Ling as she pointed at the pile of books. She still lost in the end. Making an old man kneel before her for a long period of time made her about shortening his life.
“Yes,” said uncle Fu seriously.
That was everything that his highness told him. His highness didn’t tell him anything else. He also didn\'t know if there would be anything else to do after she examined all the account books.
He could only answer honestly. However all these account books should take at least half a month to finish reading. His highness wanted the Princess stay inside for a long period of time.
“Are you sure that I won’t have to do anything else after I finish reading this?” asked Mu Zi Ling seriously.
“Yes,” said uncle Fu again. Why did he feel like he was falling down a hole when he saw the Princess’s expression?
Once Mu Zi Ling confirmed it, she nodded her head satisfied. Wasn’t it only looking through account books? It would be simple.
Her mathematical skills were at the tip top. It would only take her a day to look through all of these. She would just have to be generous for one last time and look through the account books. She would think of this as doing a good deed.
“Since that is the case, then leave the account books here. You guys can leave now.”
Mu Zi Ling decided to catch up on sleep first before going over the account books. She could finish reading all of these today.
“Princess, his highness wanted this old servant to give this to you, and said that it was your reward money,” Uncle Fu took out a jade pendant, and he gave it to Mu Zi Ling with the key.
His highness said for him to only give the jade pendant to her when she agreed to look over the account books. However, with this jade pendant, one could go to any bank and receive any amount of money.
His highness was giving too much money away!
He knew that the Princess cured the Fifth prince’s headaches. This matter had already been spread throughout the whole imperial city.
Everyone was not willing to believe that Mu Manor’s idiot Eldest Miss was not talentless or virtueless, but was a godly doctor who remained hidden.
As it turned out, Long Xiao Yu didn’t ignore what she was saying, and he was delivering the reward money now.
She could not explain how she felt at this moment. It felt like as if something that had been troubling her for a long time had been solved.
However, why did Long Xiao Yu stay silent last night? He was really a weird guy who didn’t take the normal road.
Mu Zi Ling was no longer being polite and generously took the jade pendant. Then she looked at the jade pendant.
This jade pendant looked like it was high in quality. The character “Yu” was carved on the front, and the character “Unlimited” was carved on the back. What did this mean?
