Chapter 15 Ghost Haunted ([-])

Tens of thousands of taels, this is really not a small amount.Xi Honglei remembered what Hua'er had said to herself before, that the financial power in the Xi mansion was in the hands of the second lady.Then I don't know if this incident has more or less something to do with the second lady?

"Father, who owns the store's ledger now?" Xi Honglei asked aloud after thinking about it.

"It's in my study, what's wrong?" Xi Yuanshan frowned, and looked at Xi Honglei suspiciously.Hearing Xi Honglei boldly say that she wanted to see the account book, Xi Yuanshan refused without thinking. "You are a girl's family, what account books are you looking at!"

There was an irresistible majesty in Xi Yuanshan's words, Xi Honglei looked at him with a smile, then looked at Lin Wanru who stretched out his hand to pull himself, signaling for him to stop talking, and shut his mouth obediently , changed the topic.But if I don't say it now, it doesn't mean that Xihonglei has completely let go of this matter.After dinner, when the sky gradually darkened, Xi Honglei found Xi Yuanshan's study alone, and appeared in front of Xi Yuanshan again.

Closing the ledger, Xi Yuanshan pressed his temples with a headache, leaned on the back of the chair, looked at the red tears in front of him, and asked in a low voice: "What can I do for you?"

"My daughter is here to help my father." Xi Honglei responded to Xi Yuanshan with a smile. When she saw Xi Yuanshan frowned and was about to reprimand herself, Xi Honglei quickly interrupted her. Yuan Shan's train of thought rushed ahead of Xi Yuanshan and said: "My daughter not only wants to help my father, but also my mother."

The words of Xi Honglei made Xi Yuanshan startled for a moment, and froze there.And following Xi Honglei's next words, Xi Yuanshan had to re-examine his little daughter.

"Father, I don't think you are clear about how Honglei and mother have come here for so many years. Now that Honglei is so big, it may not be a few more years to live in this Xifu. But Honglei wants to see her mother live a good life before she gets married."

Xi Honglei spoke a few words slowly, then walked slowly to the desk, looking down at Xiyuan Mountain.He said, "Father, I believe that you have always cared for your mother all these years, but you have always been helpless. Honglei wants to help you and do what you can. Can't father fulfill his daughter's filial piety?"

"You are a girl, how can you help me?" Xi Yuanshan was a little moved by what he said, but he still kept a straight face and did not relax at all.

Xi Honglei ignored Xi Yuanshan's sharp gaze, directly picked up an account book from the table, flipped through it for a while under Xi Yuanshan's surprised gaze, and then asked: "These accounts are all from the shopkeepers of various shops. remember?"

"Yes."

"Then usually the monthly account book will be handed over to father, or will it be sent to someone else for verification?" Xi Hong continued to ask with tears in her words.

"They were all sent to me. Usually, things in the court are busy, so I just take a quick look and put them aside. But in recent months, I have found that the money in the store is getting less and less, and there are even profit and loss phenomena. Carefully After checking, it was found that there was something wrong with these books.”

When Xi Yuanshan talked about the business, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.Over the years, his business has grown bigger and bigger, and he is indeed a bit dizzy from being busy alone.Originally, he wanted to hand over the business to his only son, Xi Jiabao, but this son was idle all day long, and he was not serious at all, which made Xi Yuanshan really worried.
