I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law

In the name of digestion, Mu Mingtang took Xie Xuanchen for a walk in the open air. It was also that Mu Mingtang was stunned before. Yesterday, Mrs. Jiang and Mingwei Jiang visited, and Mu Mingtang suddenly realized that, yes, such a big palace belongs to their home, the ready-made venue, why must it be limited to indoors?

Mu Mingtang too understands the difference between being outside and not seeing the sky all day long. Xie Xuanchen has a pessimistic attitude towards his illness. This may be because he feels guilty for what he has done, or because no one has ever shared with him, but in any case, Mu Mingtang wants Xie Xuanchen to live well. .

People who are sick, especially those with heart disease like Xie Xuanchen, just drink medicine is no use, he has to let him come out. Only by basking in the sun every day, contacting the wind and water of the activity, organizing the appearance into the best appearance, and talking to outsiders more quickly can change a person's style and appearance.

Mu Mingtang forced Xie Xuanchen to walk in the garden. She just took advantage of the reputation of walking to find the way where the imperial doctor was on duty at night. The two of them walked slowly past Yunrui Zhai, around the moon gate, and passed through the bamboo forest. An autumn breeze blew, and the dead leaves sounded like a child crying. Mu Mingtang saw a familiar building through the whirling bamboo shadows.

Mu Mingtang pointed to the direction of the house and said, "Look, isn't that Jing Zhai? I was there before and was locked up for several days."

She didn't care about these things anymore, and she only said it in a childish tone, but Xie Xuanchen followed her fingers and fell into silence.

Mu Mingtang didn't remember anything when he finished speaking, and still helped Xie Xuanchen to walk forward: "I remember there was a lake in front of me. Look, it's there."

The sound of running water is gurgling, and the autumn wind blows through, and there are waves of ripples on the water. When Mu Mingtang saw it, he sighed: "Such a large surface of water is enough for fish farming. You said this is just a small pond?"

Her tone was too serious. Xie Xuanchen was amused by the phrase "raising fish" and said, "If you really want to raise fish, it's not bad, but here the fish doesn't grow big, it's better to raise them in the running water in front."

Mu Mingtang shook his head: "I'm just talking about it, I don't bother to worry about it. By the way, in which direction are you talking about Xue Zhai?"

Across the water, Xie Xuanchen pointed in another direction. Mu Mingtang craned his neck to look, and nodded slightly: "I probably have counted it. Okay, it's strange here, let's go back."

"Is it going back?" Xie Xuanchen was surprised, "You have been talking for so long, don't you go to the lake to see?"

"Don't go." Mu Mingtang smiled slyly at Xie Xuanchen like a bad idea, "After watching this time, you won't come out with me next time. I want to keep it for the next time."

There are so many thoughts, Xie Xuanchen doesn't care anyway, it's up to Mu Mingtang to arrange. Mu Mingtang had achieved his goal today, so he didn't dare to let Xie Xuanchen stay in the cold wind anymore, and quickly helped him back to the house.

Sure enough, after returning to the house, Xie Xuanchen showed fatigue, and his fingers were as cold as ice. Mu Mingtang quickly poured him a cup of warm water, warmed his hands, and helped him go back to sleep.

Xie Xuanchen was really tired and fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow. Mu Mingtang sat on the side of the bed and watched for a while. She had nothing to do and didn't dare to be too far away from Xie Xuanchen, so she asked the maid to bring over yesterday's gift list. She sat outside the screen and slowly checked each item.

Yesterday the emperor sent a lot of rewards, and the queen and the queen mother also made a lot of them for face. Mu Mingtang didn't have time yesterday, just a rough glance, and he had someone move the box back to the warehouse. However, the management of property should not be so rough. If there is no clear list, it is hard not to guarantee that someone will secretly take out the things and sell them outside in exchange for money. After all, the warehouse is so big, it is impossible for Mu Mingtang to remember all of them. Who knows if there are two pieces less.

When her father was in business in the past, he told her several times about the importance of ledgers. Gathering money is easy and difficult to keep money. If you just make money outside and get confused about your family's account books, Jinshan Yinshan can also be defeated.

Xie Xuanchen's condition is a bit of a prodigal.

Mu Mingtang dared to guarantee that Xie Xuanchen had no time to pay attention to it these years, and there was no person in charge in the mansion. Xie Xuanchen's belongings must have been stolen, and even a lot of them were emptied out. Mu Mingtang couldn't manage things once, but since she is here now, she will never allow this to happen again.

The entire palace is in urgent need of a big overall plan, not only the warehouse, but also the cost of other places. For example, the curtains in idle houses are unoccupied and changed every season, which is too wasteful. Moreover, the changed fabric is completely new, which does not affect the second sale, and it can be processed again if it is cheaper.

This is simply a worthless business, and the servant in charge of this item does not know how much money he has paid out of the palace by reselling the curtain.

However, Mu Mingtang still can't take care of these assholes. Her top priority is to organize the warehouse into a book. Just take the item of gold and silverware. How many gold and silverware are placed up and down in the palace, what size, how much weight, what kind of patterns are engraved on them, how they came from, and where they were placed, and who handled them. Whoever, these must be refined. Not only need to record the quantity, even the size and weight must not be sloppy, otherwise the Diao Nu secretly took it out and dropped the bag, they would not be able to detect it.

I don't know if I don't check it, I am surprised when I check it. Mu Mingtang found that Xie Xuanchen's wealth was indeed very rich, not to mention gold and silver jewelry, and many of them were unique products in the palace. Some were rewards, some were brought back by Xie Xuanchen after killing the emperor.

As Mu Mingtang checked, he was alarmed, Xie Xuanchen copied the homes of several emperors.

Mu Mingtang started with yesterday's rewards and classified them roughly. Perishable silk and silk must be stored separately. The gold and silver wares bestowed by the royal family must be written clearly one by one. Porcelain and jade are fragile and must be stored separately. Mu Mingtang was thinking about how to allocate the warehouse space. As a result, the more details became more and more detailed, he had to change a piece of paper to keep a special memo.

Although Mu Mingtang's background was looked down upon by officials like Jiang Mingwei, the merchants were of low status and the family was not short of money. Father Mu asked Mu Mingtang to teach him since he was a child. Mu Mingtang was literate in Chinese and read the Four Books, Five Classics, and the Book of Songs. But let her write poems and fus.

After all, Father Mu originally asked Mu Mingtang for a master to make her literate, and no one in the family expected her to be a talented woman. Even Mu Mingtang herself had never thought that she would cross several levels in a row, step into the official class, and even become a princess.

This is the wonder of life's encounters. No one can predict what will happen in the future. They can only try their best to make every minute and every second of the present, not to waste.

Mu Mingtang's booth grew bigger and bigger, and the paper ledger set up a table. When she was eating, she was wondering how to organize the roster.

In the afternoon, Mu Mingtang was not only busy on his own, but also helped the maid to go round and round. She kept calling the maid over, not only to inquire about the situation, but also to register the people who handled it. Xie Xuanchen woke up in the afterglow, and when he woke up, the west window was flooded with sunlight. At the moment when the sun is late, the sun is no longer as aggressive as noon, but with orange, through the window panes, strands of light shines in the room, as if covering everything with a layer of gold.

Xie Xuanchen slowly stood up, through the screen, Mu Mingtang was sitting on the Luohan bed. She leaned on the lean on the railing in one hand, and held the ledger in the other, her long skirt leaning on the ground like a white magnolia in a golden vase.

There was a maid waiting next to Arhat's bed. Mu Mingtang seemed to be questioning. She asked a maid and answered, and Mu Mingtang made two notes on the booklet from time to time. She asked so seriously that she didn't realize that Xie Xuanchen was already awake.

Xie Xuanchen didn't make a sound, and still sat quietly on the bed, silently watching Mu Mingtang outside the screen.

Xie Xuanchen found that Mu Mingtang was very serious about what he did, and that he was serious about eating, and even questioning. Looking at that posture, it seems that they will live here for a long time, as if they have a long-term and bright future, so that she has to rectify her staff, and it takes so much effort for one account book.

Xie Xuanchen suddenly felt guilty. She is too serious, and Xie Xuanchen often finds it difficult to resist. The emperor gave him a great reward, and Xie Xuanji dared to say in front of him that his elder brother and last brother were in touch with him. Everyone felt that he would not live long, even this winter, but Mu Mingtang stubbornly planned for the future and stubbornly sought medicine for him.

Mu Mingtang spent a lot of speech and finally asked the ins and outs clearly. She said that her mouth was dry, and after sending the little maid away, she turned around and poured tea on the table.

Turning around like this, Mu Mingtang finally saw that Xie Xuanchen had woken up. She was taken aback, and quickly dropped her pen and paper, and walked quickly behind the screen: "Why did you wake up? You didn't say a word when you woke up. I found out now."

Mu Mingtang poured a cup of warm water from the table, tried with his fingers that the temperature was almost the same, then handed it to Xie Xuanchen. But this time Xie Xuanchen didn't move after taking it. Instead, he asked, "What were you doing just now?"

"Oh, I'm asking who used Qingxintang's furnishings. For a long time, no one was in charge of the palace. So many people were suddenly called. There was no way to do anything. One person passed the hands of one person, and it didn't take long. Two, I can't find it at all. There is no way to do what has happened. I will first register what I have now, and register the hands of whoever passed it. If I lose it again, I won't be taken a fool."

It turns out that registering and making books is not an easy task, and it takes a lot of manpower and effort. Xie Xuanchen held the cup in his hand and didn't mean to drink water for a long time: "Thinking about these things is troublesome. Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, it is also extremely difficult and thankless to deal with the people below. Anyway, no one in the palace dares to shorten your food and clothing. You just need to enjoy it, so why bother?"

"How can this be done?" Mu Mingtang was very serious when he heard it, and educated Xie Xuanchen, "You are not a long-term housekeeping. It is easy to live happily, and to live soberly is the hardest. The less you don't want to worry, the more the people below will know To deceive you, if things go on like this, don’t all the family members have to be emptied? It is precisely to set up the rules from the beginning. They understand the good and bad, and they dare not cross the boundary."

Xie Xuanchen became even more silent when she heard these words. She was really serious about preparing for their future lives, and she could say it without even thinking about it.

Xie Xuanchen paused for a while and said, "What if there is no future?"

The expression on Mu Mingtang's face was startled, she raised her eyes to look at Xie Xuanchen, Xie Xuanchen's expression was flat, as if she was talking about something unusual.

"How come there is no future?" Mu Mingtang stood up, put down the curtain, and blocked some dazzling sunlight outside. The sun shines through the gauze tent, and even her figure becomes blurred: "Your illness is never in a doctor, but in yourself. If you want, no matter what they say, you can stick to it."

Xie Xuanchen leaned back on the bed frame and slowly rubbed the tea cup in his hand: "Little girl, life is not about parents encouraging you to go to school. If you are sick, it is not good for persistence. You think I haven't tried. Ever? You’re not me, you don’t know what it feels like to have hoped up again and again and yet despair."

"Yeah, I don't know." Mu Mingtang walked to the bed and sat on the pedals regardless of the long skirt. He raised his head and looked straight at Xie Xuanchen. "I don't know, so I selfishly, please try again. . You have no worries about yourself, no ambition, but I still have it. You just take it for me, can you live?"

Xie Xuanchen closed his eyes slightly and leaned on the bed frame, his slender fingers motionless. Seeing that he didn't respond, Mu Mingtang changed a comfortable sitting position, propped his chin on the edge of the bed: "You must feel presumptuous. You have known me for a few days, and I am no better for you than Jiang Mingwei for you. Both. The same is that we unilaterally remembered you, but you have no impression. It's just that I was luckier than her. I finally married you and she didn't."

"But I am selfishly reluctant to let go. Since I was born, I have never beaten Jiang Mingwei. The family background is not as good as her, the knowledge is not as good as her, the luck is not as good as her, even the marriage is the same. Because she is back, so no matter what I do. Whatever you have given, you must immediately give way to her. Not only that, I once regarded him wholeheartedly as my husband-in-law, and in order to please Jiang Mingwei, I gave me to others. There is no more sadness for a woman than this."

Mu Mingtang sighed and stretched out his hands to trim the folds on Xie Xuanchen's sleeves: "But I have won her the only way, and that is that I married the person who was the most dreamed of in Girls’ Generation, and she didn’t. Not only that. I can also let her call my sister-in-law and show off in front of her all day long. You treat me as ignorant, selfish and narrow, for the sake of my ridiculously competitive spirit, and continue to live, okay?"

Mu Mingtang said with tears in her eyes, she lowered her head and buried her face in the bedding, sniffing dullly. After an unknown period of time, she felt a hand on the back of her head. He seemed to want to comfort her, but he was afraid that he could not control her strength, so he rubbed her hair vainly: "Okay."

Mu Mingtang was crying. He faintly heard something, and immediately raised his head wrapped in tears: "What did you say?"

"I said yes. Don't cry." Xie Xuanchen held his hand stiffly. He had raised it imaginarily just now. When Mu Mingtang raised his head, he rubbed his hair directly on his hand. Xie Xuanchen didn't know whether to put it down or take it back, so he could only maintain it rigidly.

Mu Mingtang was still crying just now. Hearing Xie Xuanchen's words, he seemed to have been beaten with blood in an instant, and he took it back with tears: "Are you serious?"

"Yeah." Xie Xuanchen sighed, he didn't think that being alive was a good thing for the world, nor did he think he could steal his life from the heavens. But there was always something moved in his heart. He was already alone, had merits and demerits, probably more than merit, but this girl's life has just begun. She has gone through so many bumps and is still bright and happy. With a personality like her, if she marries another person, she will definitely be loved by her husband and son-in-law, and live a life of peace and success with all her children.

But she married him, and even if the children and grandchildren didn't talk about it, even safety became a problem. He has hurt so many people, he can't hurt such a young girl any more. He cannot give her Consummation, but he has to give her stability.

He will live a few more days, plan for longer, and have more chips. These are the roads left for her to retreat.

Mu Mingtang did not guess the circles in Xie Xuanchen's heart. She immediately became happy, got up from her feet, sat next to Xie Xuanchen and said, "It's fine if you figure it out. I just thought about deliberately angering you, etc. After you die, you will marry someone with your property. I am pretty good, and with a generous dowry, it’s not difficult to find the next home if you want to come. At that time, not only your wife will go to someone else, but also the house, The family property should also have someone else’s last name."

Xie Xuanchen found that Mu Mingtang had succeeded. He gritted his teeth and said every word: "Shut up."

Although he intellectually knew that if he died, Mu Mingtang would remarry sooner or later. But understand and understand, when you really hear it from Mu Mingtang, why is it so ear-piercing?
