The Lady's Sickly Husband Chapter 152: New Arrangement

She ordered Mo Yan and Mo Xing to follow Feng Da in secrecy to see where he went, what people he met and what they said.
Having made such a big move to transfer so much money, he, a sly man, wouldn't leave no way out for himself.
She wanted to know whether this man himself was so bold or there was someone behind him, whether he hid the money or spent it, whether the money could be traced back and how to trace it back.
After Mo Yan and Mo Xing left on her order, she then sent out Asan to the Tingfengquan in the capital and specially asked uncle Yu to bring some wine in person.
Back in the Wang village, she made the accounting by Arabic numbers, so fast and accurate that Ning Shaoqing was amazed and poised humble to learn from her. Certainly, Mo Qianxue readily agreed and taught him for a few days. The Arabic numbers and balance sheet were all taught to Ning Shaoqing.
Ning Shaoqing was a smart and quick learner. A few days later, he mastered it. She still remembered the way he laughed heartfelt and praised it as a divine calculation method.
Later, after obtaining her consent, Ning Shaoqing taught this accounting method to uncle Yu and asked him to utilize it in all the properties. On the one hand, others couldn't decode it, and on the other hand, he could read it faster and clearer. Since uncle Yu was here in the capital, she didn't need to waste energy and time to train others. Just let uncle Yu to send two accountants and finish checking the account books.
Nanny Mo had never met uncle Yu and was a little stunned. At this time, lady should be in the mood for wine?
Yet, Chuyi and Shiwu knew him. Chuyi, the flexible-minded girl, pointed to Shiwu and told nanny Mo the relation between Mr. Ning and uncle Yu. She suggested, "Lady, should we pick up Mingyue and Caixia to the Founder mansion?" Mingyue and Caixia were innocent and had no relations with others in the mansion. They would naturally be solely loyal to Mo Qianxue.
This proposal sounded nice, but at the thought of the home that she built on her own and that carried the common memory of she and Ning Shaoqing, "No. Just let them mind the house in the Wang village. In the future…" It could be at least a way out.
However, as Chuyi reminded her, she thought of another person—Yunyao.
She was considerate and thoughtful, looking soft but sophisticated and inward in character. She was also apt at accounting. If she came here as a manager of those stores, Mo Qianxue could save a lot of energy.
She was a woman, so she didn't need to social and just focused on the stores.
What the butler had said also made sense. Whether those stores were profitable or not, she must take over the manors.
Then…let Wang Tiansong came. He was a good hand of farming and knew a little about sculpting. It wouldn't be difficult for him to manage the manors and at the same time open a sculpture worshop in the capital.
After arranging thiese, Mo Qianxue returned to her Snow courtyard.
Upon entering the yard, she discovered a man leaning against the wall and wearing a lilac robe, the corner of which swung in wind. The dark hair was tied up by a jade ring on the top of his head, and the short hair floating up around his temples. The sunshine was cast on his face that glistened with happiness and pride.
Following Mo Qianxue's gaze, the gatekeeper nanny suddenly discovered a man leaning against the wall and instantly kneeled out of scare.
Meeting Mo Qianxue's eyes, he flipped open the small fan, and she laughed.
Who could it be to carry a small fan all the time to play cool and smile playfully? Surely, it was Su Qi, "Why are you here?" It wasn't surprising for him to be on her wall if he had been able to take her out of the Jian mansion without alerting any others.
There were altogether twenty guards in the mansion, enough to keep out thieves, but they could never guard off masters like Su Qi or Ning Shaoqing.
Years ago, the Founder mansion was safe as an iron bucket, not merely because the servants were loyal, but also because of the domestic guard team. Yet, as the Founder left, only ordinary guards were left in the mansion, who were loyal yet not helpful.
Su Qi jumped off the wall, and nanny Mo immediately stepped in front of Mo Qianxue. Although she had once seen Su Qi escorting lady back, she didn't know the reason. Certainly, she needed to protect lady when a strange man was approaching.
Seeing this, Su Qi only laughed and took out something out of his pocket, "I come to visit you and bring you this, so that I can pay back the favor of recipe."
She had given him the tofu recipe as her gratitude for the Jian mansion incident. He understood it, of course. However, …should he pay back again?
Fairly speaking, she had only one acquaintance in the capital, and that was Su Qi. Last time, he did nothing to her, even if she had acted like crazy. He must already have a be-loved one.
Mo Qianxue motioned nanny to leave, and took over the box and opened it. It was the effective medical cream, Fresh.
Last time… things went like that, but he remained calm all the time…
No surprising. She was a married woman after all. Could he possibly like her? Probably, in his eyes, it was only a matter of favor, so she didn't need to mind the incident too much either. Girls care about their appearances, and now she needed friends, "Thank you for this…" She really needed it right now, because the bottle of Shiwu's almost ran out.
In view that she received it, Su Qi shot ecstasy from his eyes, but the playfulness lingered on his face. He pointed at the guards who returned in a hurry, teasing, "Qianxue, your Founder mansion's too lame. Anyone can break in… Should you have a check in your rooms to see whether you've lost anything. I happened to see two people leaving hurriedly when I came…"
Hearing her name addressed and him joking with her in an easy manner, Mo Qianxue didn't feel uncomfortable but had a sense of familiarity.
In modern times, people tended to address each other by first names. But after she arrived here, she was either called, Mrs. Ning, or lady or boss…
Mo Qianxue didn't show aversion, but nanny Mo frowned.
However, as they talked, the two guards had rushed over, taking a shocking glance at Su Qi and pulling the swords, "Why did you lead us away?"
Obviously, someone had led them away and went inside in search of something. Then she came back. There weren't valuable things in her room, so without checking, she knew what they were after.
Shame that without her guidance, the black wooden token couldn't be found at all.
…
In the Su mansion.
In the main study, an uncommonly-looking middle-aged man was pacing back and forth, speaking after serious consideration, "The lady of Founder mansion isn't qualified to be the wife of the master of the Su family, but she's qualified to be the wife of a legal son. Besides, she has military forces with her. But do you think the Emperor will be willing to see her marrying to the Su family?" This man was exactly the current master Su.
