It only took Li Baolu three days to complete the calculation of the accounts. In terms of property value, Master Gu did not deceive them, it was indeed 70% out of 15%.

But she knew that there were more or less problems with those industries. Otherwise, why did the other industries she counted have been increasing for several years, but the industries allocated to them have not changed?

But Li Baolu didn't care about this either.

The reason why she spent three days to settle the accounts was not only to check the accounts, but also to understand the status of the Gu family's property.

Even if the Gu family still has some unrecorded private property and unrecorded property, it is still a minority.

Knowing the property they own, they can roughly calculate their income. She has lived here for four months, and a year has passed. It is not difficult to pay.

Knowing their income and expenses, as well as most of their property, what secrets does the Gu family have in front of her?

Li Baolu put away the paper she used for keeping accounts. The chief manager thought it was just for keeping numbers?

This is what she used to remember their property.

Jing Yun obviously doesn't want to be kind to Gu Jia anymore, so she must make more preparations for him.

After Li Baolu put away the things, she asked someone to move the box and ledger to the front yard, and begged to see Lord Gu.

During the examination period, the capital was under martial law, and there were no major affairs in the court, so Gu Houye had been idle at home for the past few days. Seeing his granddaughter-in-law coming to look for him carelessly, he twitched the corners of his mouth and let her in.

However, the door of the study room was wide open, and the girl who served Master Hou's pen and ink did not retreat.

Li Baolu didn't care about it, but he wanted to avoid suspicion.

The Gu family's reputation was already bad, and he didn't want to make it worse.

Li Baolu ordered the box to be put down, and respectfully bowed to Master Gu and said, "Grandfather, I have already calculated the account, and it is indeed 70% of 15%."

Master Gu nodded with a sullen face, "If there is no problem, then we will open a branch of the ancestral hall in the future, are you ready?"

"Yes, grandson-in-law is at your command." Li Baolu paused and said, "It's just that grandson-in-law still has a few things to ask grandpa to fulfill."

Master Gu's face darkened, "What's the matter?"

Li Baolu smiled at him and said: "Now the servants of the shop and the village are all from the Gu family. Will grandfather take them back, or just let us order them?"

Gu Houye was silent for a while and said: "You have to take over so many properties at once, you must have someone to help you, if you want to keep people, then stay, if you don't want to send people back to the mansion, the mansion will arrange their whereabouts."

"What about the tenants?"

"All the land in the north is allocated to you, and spring planting has not started at this time. If you want to change people, it will be cheaper to rent."

"What about the servant's contract of sale?"

"The people you decide to stay, give me a list, and I will ask your aunt to give you the deed of sale."

Satisfied, Li Baolu took the opportunity and said, "Grandfather, grandson-in-law has one more thing to ask of you. My husband and I are used to following my hearts and Erlin. Can you give me their family's deed of prostitution?"

Gu Houye never paid attention to the affairs of the back house, he waved his hand and said, "Since you want to continue to use them, I will ask your aunt to give them to you later."

Li Baolu thanked Fuli, "Thank you, grandfather."

Gu Houye looked at Li Baolu, who was younger than his granddaughter, and sighed, "Mr. Li, please persuade Jing Yun more, there is no grievance in this world that cannot be overcome, not to mention that the third master is his biological father, and the Gu family treats him even if There is no nurturing grace, but there is also benevolence, and now outsiders pity him, and public opinion is biased towards him, but one day the truth will be revealed, and then how will the world talk about him?"

Li Baolu sneered in her heart, if it's so good, why did you go to Wutong Courtyard last night?

Why did you choose to open the shrine on the eighth day of February?

Gu Jingyun entered the examination room on February 2nd, and he had to take the examination for nine days. He knew that the branch was a big deal, but he still chose it on the eighth day of junior high school, so it was not safe for him to enter the examination room.

If it were someone else, he would already be impatient, so only that pervert Jing Yun could hold on.

With Gu Jingyun standing in front of her before, Li Baolu pretended to be crazy and stupid, but today she didn't want to mess around anymore, she said seriously: "Grandfather, I always thought that if you want to gain sincerity, you have to treat others with sincerity. The Gu family has always treated us with sincerity. We will only return it with hypocrisy."

"It's not that we have prejudice against the Gu family, it's that the Gu family has prejudice against our husband and wife." Li Baolu looked up into his eyes and said, "From you to my little girl, this prejudice has been there since we appeared. .”

"Grandmother is very nice to us on the surface, but all her schemes are to make her husband unfilial and unrighteous, not to mention the three wives in the house. If it weren't for our fate, we would have been weak and sick by now. When it comes to exams, whether you can live or not is another matter."

Gu Houye said in a deep voice: "That's why you targeted the Gu family first. Your appearance at that time was carefully planned. How can you expect them to be sincere to you?"

Li Baolu sneered, "Of course we have to design carefully. If we don't design, we may not even be able to enter the gate of the capital."

Li Baolu looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Grandfather, if you were almost killed fifteen years ago and have been blocked by security for fifteen years, would you not be prepared?"

"This is all the Qin family's one-sided words..." Gu Houye blushed.

"Grandfather," Li Baolu looked straight at him, "Is that really the Qin family's one-sided words?"

Li Baolu's eyes are very big, and when she looks straight at people, people can clearly see the clarity and persistence in her eyes. When Gu Houye met her eyes, he was speechless.

"You didn't regret what you did back then. When you saw the victim, your first reaction was not to apologize and make amends, but to harm him so that he would not be able to seek justice for what happened back then," Li Baolu sneered. The anger of five points has also been aroused by ten points. In the past four months, how many times have we blocked the poison and how many rumors that are not good for us have been broken?"

Gu Hou Ye's face became gloomy, "So you want to fight Gu Fu forever?"

Li Baolu smiled, "Grandfather is too serious. As you said, the Gu family is the father's family of the husband. No matter how we hate him, we won't do that."

She raised her chin proudly and said: "My husband's eyes see the stars in the sky, and the ground under his feet is a magnificent landscape. The Gu family is just a speck of dust under his feet."

Gu Houye stared at her blankly, hearing that the Gu family was belittled by her so much, he couldn't feel any anger in his heart.

"Don't worry, your husband has no such treacherous plan, as long as people from the Gu family don't come to provoke us again." Li Baolu smiled brightly at him, "You must know that apart from the fact that we came to the door, which was designed by us, we will Every counterattack after taking over the Gu Mansion was forced."

Gu Hou Ye's face darkened slightly, but he also became thoughtful.

He didn't fully believe what Li Baolu said, but he had to consider this possibility.

He really didn't want to quarrel with Gu Jingyun, unless he clearly committed an act of disobedience and disloyalty, no matter what the Gu family did to him, it would be unkind and unjust.

Looking at Li Baolu, and thinking about the old wife who was still lying on the bed, Master Gu sighed and waved his hand: "Go down."

Li Baolu gave him a blessing, turned around and left.

The other servants in the study also withdrew, only the chief steward remained in place in fear.

Master Gu slumped his shoulders and back as if he was ten years older, and said wearily: "I'm getting more and more powerless, who else in the mansion can listen to me?"

From the very beginning, he told the mansion not to provoke Gu Jingyun, and would rather be indifferent than conflict with him.

But whether it's the old wife, the three daughters-in-law, or even his son...

Master Gu felt that he was really old, and his heart was exhausted.

The chief manager was silent for a while before saying: "Master Hou, what the third grandma said may not be true. Although the third master is always smiling, we all know that he has a grudge against the Gu family, and he has not relentless in his actions several times."

"No matter what he thinks in his heart, if he doesn't communicate with the branch, he won't communicate with him. If he stays far away, maybe there won't be so many grievances."

"The future of the third master..."

"I've already stopped him once. If he can still concentrate on solving the problem, then it's useless for me to stop him again. Those shady tricks will only make him hate Gu Fu even more."

"What about opening the ancestral hall?"

"Take it easy," Master Gu snorted, "my granddaughter-in-law is not as simple as she appears on the surface, she is very courageous and dares to say anything in front of me."

It was his son, who shrank his neck when he saw him, but Li Baolu not only dared to speak and sarcasm, but also dared to look him directly and speak, which showed that he was not timid.

Since he is so bold, he is naturally not afraid of entering the ancestral hall.

What Li Baolu said had an impact on Gu Houye after all, he didn't want to take action against Gu Jingyun anymore, and his tolerance towards them naturally increased.

Since then, Gu Houye's chief steward has naturally noticed the change in Hou Ye, and after a little thought in his heart, he made up his mind.

After all, Lord Hou is his master. Since Lord Hou doesn't want to continue to quarrel with the third master, it's okay for him to calm down and make peace with him.

And Li Baolu who came out of the study ran directly to the second bedroom Jiang's residence with her heart.

Only then did Jiang know from the servants that Li Baolu had been in Master Hou's study for half an hour, and when she was guessing what they would say, she heard someone quickly report that Li Baolu came towards her.

Jiang shi immediately sat upright, making people wait for the battle. Her first reaction was that Li Baolu came to trouble her.

One must know that since Li Baolu lived in Gu's residence, she has never visited their other masters except for the old lady's encore.

She is obviously a female family member in the back house, but she follows Gu Jingyun's ass every day, and has been inseparable from the moment she woke up.

Gu Jingyun also followed when he left the house, how could he have any womanly virtues?

Hearing that she even pulled Gu Jingyun along with her in the kitchen, Jiang curled her lips in disdain, absolutely not acknowledging her deep-seated jealousy towards Li Baolu.

When she was thinking wildly, Li Baolu had already arrived at the door of the second room.

Li Baolu raised her head and looked at the courtyard of the second room. This was the first time she had visited Gu's mansion in such a specific way. She looked at it in novelty for a while before she brought her heart to see Mrs. Jiang.

"Hi, Second Aunt," Li Baolu greeted her with a smile when she saw her, and before she could say anything, she got up and said with a smile: "My niece and daughter-in-law are here to ask for something."

Jiang's eyelids twitched immediately.
