Chapter 7 Be careful!
The next day.
"Why are you so happy?" Li Miao asked in surprise.
The bun-faced maid laughed and said: "Mr. Li, Miss, she finished the bowl of bacon and egg fried rice last night."
Li Miao said in confusion: "I'm done eating when I finish eating. Why are you so happy?"
The bun-faced maid still smiled and said: "Because the lady has finished eating!"
Li Miao: "..."
"By the way, Mr. Li, can I ask you something?"
The look of the bun-faced maid suddenly became awkward.
Seeing this, Li Mian said curiously: "I don't know what it is? Let's take a look."
The bun-faced maid asked with pleading eyes: "Master Li, can you make a bowl of fried rice with bacon and eggs for the lady every day from now on?"
Li Miao said: "Did your young lady tell you that?"
The bun-faced maid shook her head: "My lady didn't tell me, it was my own idea. I can see that she really likes the bacon and egg fried rice you made."
Li Miao suddenly smiled and said: "You are very kind to your lady and very loyal."
The bun-faced maid whispered softly: "Of course, without Miss, I would have starved to death when I was a child..."
"What are you talking about?"
Li Miao was confused. The bun-faced maid's voice was relatively soft just now, so she didn't hear it very clearly.
"No, it's nothing."
The bun-faced maid denied it, and then looked at Li Miao pitifully: "Master Li, okay? At worst, I don't need you to pay back the two taels of silver."
Speaking of this, a trace of distress appeared on her face, as if she was very reluctant to part with the two taels of silver.
Li Miao: "..."
Ganqing is still a little money-lover.
"Okay!"
Li Miao readily agreed, definitely not because she didn't have to pay back the two taels of silver, but mainly because she wanted to repay Miss Zhe's kindness for giving her the opportunity to be the accountant.
Well, that’s right, that’s it.
The bun-faced maid immediately beamed: "Master Li, you are so kind."
"That's right."
Li Miao suddenly felt that this was a bit strange and couldn't help but ask: "Does your lady usually eat alone?"
If he remembered correctly, the bun-faced maid once said that Zhe Xinyi’s parents were both here.
The bun-faced maid said: "Hmm, usually when the master and madam are not at home, the young lady always eats alone."
Li Miao asked doubtfully: "Are your husband and wife often away from home?"
"Yes."
The bun-faced maid nodded: "Since the young lady started to manage the Zhe Mansion three years ago, the master and his wife have often gone out to live, and only come back from time to time. It has been a long time since the last time I came back."
Li Miao showed a look of sudden realization. No wonder he had never seen those two people in the past few days.
......
It was another day, and when the sky was just getting slightly brighter, Li Miao had already gotten up.
After washing up and making porridge, I started my plan.
First do three sets of push-ups, each set is thirty, and then jog around the courtyard.
I have just started exercising. It is not suitable to be vigorous at the beginning. It needs to be gradual, otherwise my thin body may not be able to bear it.
Only by exercising your body can you cope better when encountering danger. Of course, this is also for the health of your body. This body is somewhat weak and weak, and it may be difficult for you to get sick if you get sick.
Live...
When Li Miao completed the exercise plan, the sun had already risen.
After drinking the porridge, I rushed to the accounting office without stopping. After work, I read books by sages.
At the same time, Zhe Xinyi, dressed in a smart outfit, appeared in front of the gate of Zuixian Tower.
Zuixianlou can be said to be the highest-standard restaurant in the entire capital, and the people who come in and out are either rich or noble.
Someone has already been waiting in front of the gate of Zuixian Tower. It is a middle-aged man with a mediocre appearance, who is not obvious at all among the crowd.
When this person saw Zhe Xinyi, he hurriedly came up to her and saluted: "I have seen Miss Zhe. My young master is already above. Please, Miss Zhe, follow me up."
Zhe Xinyi nodded her head indifferently. She recognized that this person was the person next to the current prince Li Yan. As long as he appeared, it meant that the prince Li Yan was basically nearby.
If I remember correctly, this person’s name is Zheng Ping.
There are three floors in Zuixian Tower. The higher you go up, the fewer the private rooms, the more luxurious they are, and the more money you have to spend.
Soon, Zheng Ping led Zhe Xinyi to the door of a private room on the third floor. This private room was the highest standard in the entire Zuixian Building. It was usually not open to the public. It was located at the innermost part of the third floor, with the windows.
Outside is a branch of the Huaihe River. There are two rows of not-too-dense willow trees on the bank, drifting in the wind, and the scenery is beautiful.
Zheng Ping did not directly open the door of the private room, but knocked on the door first. After the person in the private room said "Come in," he opened the door and asked Zhe Xinyi to go in, while he waited outside.
p>
A young man in his twenties was sitting in front of the dining table, facing the door of the private room. The dining table was already filled with various dishes, and the slightest trace of steam was coming out.
The moment Zhe Xinyi walked into the private room, the young man stood up, walked towards her, and laughed loudly: "Miss Zhe, you came just in time, the food has just been served."
"I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhe Xinyi bowed.
Prince Li Yan quickly made a gesture of helping him up: "Miss Zhe, there is no need to be so polite."
Then, Prince Li Yan invited Zhe Xinyi to sit down at the dining table.
Most of the time, Prince Li Yan started the conversation, while Zhe Xinyi just responded with a decent reply, which was neither embarrassing nor rude.
After a conversation that was not very nutritious, Zhe Xinyi couldn't hold it in any longer, so she took the initiative and asked: "I wonder what the Crown Prince wants to see me for today?"
Hearing this, Prince Li Yan looked serious and said: "Miss Zhe, I heard that there seems to be some financial problems with the Zhe Family Army recently."
Zhe Xinyi did not deny it and said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. There were indeed some financial problems with the Zhe family army some time ago, but... they have been resolved now."
The smile on Prince Li Yan's face faltered slightly.
This doesn't make sense. According to the news, the person in front of me didn't ask anyone to borrow money, and his family isn't that rich. There's no reason why he can only raise enough money!
Where did the flaw occur?
There was no news about Liu Yanzhi's false accounting. Apart from Liu Yanzhi, only Li Miao and Zhe Xinyi knew about it. Outsiders only knew that Liu Yanzhi, an old man in Zhe Mansion, had resigned and returned to his hometown.
I wanted to gain a good impression in front of Zhe Xinyi, but even though I couldn't do it, I felt a little depressed inside, but I couldn't show it too obviously.
Prince Li Yan forced a smile and said sincerely: "That's it, that's good."
Afterwards, Zhe Xinyi got up to leave on the grounds that she had something else to do. Although Prince Li Yan was a little reluctant to leave, he had no choice but to get up and see Zhe Xinyi off.
"Be careful!"
