Temperament

Soon, all the disciples finished reporting their entry and exit items for this month, and it was time for Zhuo Tianyi to announce the affairs of each shop for the next month.

After Zhuo Tianyi finished speaking, he asked Shen Qinglan to read out the summary results of last month's accounts.Shen Qinglan unfolded the manuscript, read the results of the verification according to the script.

When they read that the accounts of Zhuo's Money Shop Jinyang South Street branch were in disarray, which were not related to the amount of last month's accounts, and that Taizhou Xishi Silk and Satin Shop lacked some input, everyone turned their attention to the main table.

Shen Qinglan could feel the hostility and resentment contained in those gazes, but it was not his fault, everything was the result of their wise and mighty leaders arbitrarily.

After reading, he looked at Zhuo Tianyi, which meant that the task was completed.

Zhuo Tianyi looked calm, looking back at him, his eyes flickered, "Mr. Shen, what advice do you have?"

Shen Qinglan frowned, what does Zhuo Tianyi mean?Previously, it was only said that he was required to complete the calculation and check all the accounts, but he was never said to be required to provide opinions.He has done his due diligence by announcing the results of the verification in public, and asking him to express his opinion, wouldn't it be letting him, the Meng family, dictate the affairs of the Zhuo family?Or, use him as a weapon?

Not only Shen Qinglan, but also all the Zhuo family members in the main hall were extremely surprised, even Zhou Yunlei looked over in surprise.

Zhuo Tianyi smiled slightly, "Mr. Shen, as the account manager of Zhuo's family, you only calculated the result, but didn't give any advice on the result. May I ask, have you not fulfilled your duty?"

Shen Qinglan's eyes widened, she never thought that Zhuo Tianyi would fight him at this time.The Zhuo family members below also looked over in surprise, unable to understand what was going on between the two of them.

There was a burst of anger in his heart, Zhuo Tianyi's methods were too deep, so with such a light sentence, he pressed the responsibility on his head again.Originally, he was forced to do this, and he had no reason to take responsibility for the mistakes of the Zhuo family.

Shen Qinglan stared at him, then turned to face everyone in the main hall, "The missing accounts of Taizhou West City Silk and Satin Shop should be filled up immediately, and then checked. As for the chaotic accounts of the Jinyang South Street Branch of Zhuo's Money Shop, I suggest , thoroughly investigate."

As soon as the voice fell, there were whispers from below.

Zhuo Tianyi nodded approvingly, "Okay, I will do as you said. I hope you will show the results of the verification at the church meeting next month."

After Zhuo Tianyi finished speaking, the original whispering voice immediately became louder.

The shopkeeper of Taizhou Xishi Silk and Satin Village, the eldest disciple of Zhuo Tianyi's Fifth Martial Uncle, didn't say anything, but just sat on the seat with an ugly face, bowed his head and said nothing.Not far from his front row, a man stood up and shouted loudly: "Master, you can't listen to the Meng family's one-sided words, just check if you say so! The accounts of the South Street branch are clear, and the accounts are closed every day. I will supervise them." Going to the accounting room to do the calculations, and going through it myself, there has never been a mistake, so why did he say that the accounts were messed up? This is impossible! As the head of the family, you can't favor outsiders and let your own people feel cold!"

But it was Shi Qiming.

Only then did Shen Qinglan remember that Shi Qiming was the shopkeeper of the Jinyang South Street branch.Thinking of the scene in the dining room a few months ago, he knew in his heart that this time Shi Qiming was offended to the very end.

Zhuo Tianyi smiled, "Senior Brother Shi, the so-called thorough investigation is to thoroughly check the accounts, and it is not a conviction. If there is no problem after the investigation, I will naturally return the accounts of the South Street branch to a clean one. You can rest assured. "

He turned his gaze and glanced at Shen Qinglan who was standing next to him, "Also, I want to correct you a mistake, Mr. Shen is not the Meng family, since the day when he made an alliance with the Meng family in Qianlongjiang three years ago, he It's already the Zhuo family. Now, let alone. So, you can't say that I let him check the accounts to favor outsiders. "

The implication is that since there is no problem, don't be afraid to check, let alone check by your own people.

Shi Qiming's complexion changed, obviously he did not expect Zhuo Tianyi to say that, and his tone turned angry, "Okay, since we are all from our own family, then I would like to ask the head of the family, if the accounts of the South Street Branch are clean," he said Pointing at Shen Qinglan who was standing, "That is because he failed to check the accounts clearly and intends to frame him! At that time, what should the head of the family do?!"

There was a gleam of light in Zhuo Tianyi's eyes, and he smiled cheerfully, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Shi, if this is the case, I will never show favoritism, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory result!"

Shi Qiming squeezed out a smile, "Since the head of the family said so, then I can rest assured. Okay, let's check!"

His tone was very cold and awe-inspiring, and after finishing speaking, he cast a glance of obvious hatred at Shen Qinglan.Shen Qinglan's heart sank, and suddenly thought of a possibility, and after thinking about it, even her body felt cold.

Not far away, Zhou Yunlei looked over with worried eyes, and clenched his hands on his knees.

Returning to the East Chamber after dinner, as soon as the servants retreated, Shen Qinglan stopped Zhuo Tianyi who was about to take a bath, "Zhuo Tianyi, why did you say that at the meeting today?"

Zhuo Tianyi couldn't react, so he stopped undoing his belt, "What did you say?"

Shen Qinglan didn't expect Zhuo Tianyi to be puzzled, so she couldn't help but pause, paused, and said, "If you say it, I will give you a satisfactory answer."

Zhuo Tianyi laughed, walked closer, reached out and picked up a strand of hair hanging on his shoulders to play with, "Why, do you think I'm not partial to you enough?"

Shen Qinglan frowned and stared at him.

Zhuo Tianyi raised an eyebrow, a little surprised, "Are you really angry about this?" He couldn't help being happy, he ran his hands along his hair to the side of his face, and rubbed it there tentatively, "Although I'm very happy that you are like this, but After all, I am the head of the family, so I can't..."

Shen Qinglan blocked his hand, stared at him and said, "I asked you to see the result but you didn't, and you asked me to give advice in front of your family at the meeting, and you never told me beforehand! Shi Qiming After being excited, you immediately agreed, why?!"

The smile on Zhuo Tianyi's lips disappeared suddenly, and the two eyes looked back straight, "Why?" He repeated, and approached, "Why do you say?"

Although his expression was normal and his voice was not loud, Shen Qinglan could clearly see that his eyes were darkened, and there were already undercurrents surging in his eyes.

He took a small step back, but still puffed up his chest, and said in a deep voice: "You, no, you have colluded with Shi Qiming, and let me calculate with fake accounts. If you make a mistake, you can just find a reason to deal with the Meng family. Right?!"

As soon as the words came out, the person in front of him stopped in his tracks.Tilting slightly, a huge storm appeared in those dark water-like eyes, but in just a moment, the undercurrent in the eyes swept into a huge wave.

"Collusion, false accounts, reason," Zhuo Tianyi repeated softly, then nodded, staring into Shen Qinglan's eyes, "Is this how you think of me? I'm like this in your eyes?!"

"You..." Shen Qinglan wanted to ask "what is the truth?", looking at those eyes filled with anger, disappointment, even injury, and grief, several emotions were mixed together and rolled over and over again, but she said nothing If you can't come out, the only thing you can do is straighten your shoulders, grit your teeth and look at him.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhuo Tianyi looked away, looked to the side, and smiled mockingly.

When he turned his head again, all the previous emotions were gone in his eyes, only indifference and arrogance remained.

Exhaling, Zhuo Tianyi's voice was extremely calm, "Since you don't understand, then I will explain to you. I don't look at it because I believe in you, and there must be nothing wrong. I want you to make suggestions because I want to Establish your prestige in front of them. As for Shi Qiming's aggressive method, I agree because I have long known that there is a problem with the accounts of the South Street branch, and agreeing to him is just to let him have nothing to say." After a pause, he said again : "The explanation is over, do you have any questions?"

"Since you already knew that there was a problem with the accounts of the South Street branch, why didn't you check it earlier, and asked me to come..."

"That's because I want to take this opportunity to establish your prestige, so that those who are not convinced can't find a reason!" Zhuo Tianyi quickly replied, turning to look at Shen Qinglan, "Is there any more?"

Shen Qinglan didn't expect such a result, she was caught off guard for a while, "...It's gone."

Seeing Zhuo Tianyi's overly calm face, he really wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start. Such a situation had never happened between him and Zhuo Tianyi.

"What do you want to say?" Zhuo Tianyi suddenly asked with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, carefully watching his expression.

"I..." Shen Qinglan hesitated, this situation surpassed all his understanding of the relationship between the two people, and he really didn't know how to deal with it.He pursed his lips and remained silent for a long while before whispering: "No more."

Zhuo Tianyi's eyes darkened, and then he quickly recovered his previous indifference and arrogance, "Okay, then it's my turn." He raised his hands and walked to Shen Qinglan's side, "Did you hear Shi Qiming's bluff?" In a word, just believe it and turn to doubt me?"

Shen Qinglan couldn't deny that Shi Qiming's words were very eloquent, and he checked the accounts several times, and he was sure that he would not make a mistake.When Zhuo Tianyi was asked to look at it before, he didn't even look at it, so he thought of this layer without much hesitation.

Zhuo Tianyi knew what he was thinking by looking at his expression, "Shen Qinglan, I know you don't trust me, but I didn't expect that you not only don't trust me, but you also despise me, and you despise me to such an extent!" His tone became cold and arrogant, "I, Zhuo Tianyi, want to deal with Meng Huaiyuan. I don't need to collude with anyone by any means, and I don't need to find any reason. If there must be a reason, it can only be," he turned to Shen Qinglan, "You always think about Meng Huaiyuan, and you don't put your heart on me!"

Shen Qinglan was speechless.Yes, he ignored it. With Zhuo Tianyi's character and behavior, he really wouldn't, and he didn't need to bother to find a reason to deal with Meng Huaiyuan. He has always been the best way to coerce and threaten himself with integrity and everything. proof.

However, even if he ignored it, is it all his fault?He treated his irresistible kindness as the liver and lungs of a donkey, so could he wash away so many coercion and threats against him?

"So, no matter how much trust and kindness I have for you, in your eyes, it will turn into conspiracy and coercion, will it not?!" Zhuo Tianyi's voice was full of anger and coldness, but there was also obvious helplessness. Bitterness.

Shen Qinglan shook her head, but now she couldn't bear what she didn't want to say, "Zhuo Tianyi, don't forget, I don't want to accept your kindness at all. Those are all forced on me by you."

"Shen Qinglan! You are very good, you are ruthless!" Zhuo Tianyi nodded, his voice hoarse with anger, "I don't want to always threaten you with the Meng family, but now I realize that you only eat this way! If that's the case, then listen carefully, everything in the Meng family is in your hands now, if you don't want anything to happen to the Meng family, just let me take care of it and don't force me to use all those methods to deal with Meng Huaiyuan!"

He finished speaking through gritted teeth, and then left angrily.

The door was slammed shut, and the room fell silent.

Shen Qinglan stood with her head bowed for a long time before she silently approached the bed, leaned on the bed rails, and lay down weakly.

Maybe it would have been unnecessary to have such a lose-lose situation.

The reality that has existed for a long time cannot be changed, why bother to add fire to make it even more difficult to deal with?If he really angered him and harmed the Meng family, wouldn't all the previous sacrifices and efforts be for naught?

But, is it really necessary to go against your wish and flatter you?

too difficult.

He took out the waistband from under the pillow and held it in his hand.

Close your eyes, Meng Huaiyuan's smiling face appeared in front of your eyes, he stretched out his hand to him, Qing Lan, hold on, swim for a while, and the senior brother will pull you up.

Brother...
