Does the villain stepmother have a headache again today!

Holy, Christmas tree...

Mama He is still in shock!

The Ruan family in Antang is also a century-old family in Xiqi Kingdom!

Mother He followed Tailao Madam earlier, and later Ruan Tao, she is the most experienced mother in charge in the mansion!

Even when looking at jade, emerald, and high-grade porcelain, Mama He still has eyesight!

But the Christmas tree?

Mother He racked her brains, but she couldn't match the number!

Mama He hadn't even heard of it.

Ruan Tao was flipping through the account book in his hand when he suddenly heard silence from his side. After a while, Ruan Tao's fingertips froze slightly, and he suddenly realized that Mama He must have been "tripped" by the Christmas tree she was talking about just now...

Ruan Tao: "..."

Ruan Tao turned to look at He Ma, but He Ma was still in a daze.

Ruan Tao sighed in his heart.

In the future, such words can no longer be blurted out!

To say a word that appeared out of thin air, you need at least ten sentences to smooth things over!

There is also a risk of being exposed.

Ruan Tao closed the account book and looked at Mama He, no matter what, Mama He was the most trustworthy person around her, she couldn't leave a hole as big as a Christmas tree in Mama He's place.

Ruan Tao said softly, "Christmas tree is a green tree, hanging on the tree..."

Ruan Tao changed his words, "The tree is full of colorful fruits, as gaudy as it can be, it is the most gaudy tree."

What Ruan Tao said was true!

He Ma sighed softly in her heart, but she had to say that Madam described it too well.

After all, when Madam mentioned this, Mama He immediately remembered that when she was in the tailor shop, the shopkeeper showed Madam the color and style of the clothes that the eldest lady liked!

At that time, it was this kind of bright red and green, with distinct layers...

Just point to Ruan Tao, Mama He will understand immediately!

Although it shouldn't be said that way, Madam really... described it brilliantly.

Seeing that Mama He's frown gradually relaxed, Ruan Tao knew that she had been fooled, and was about to lower her head to continue looking at the account books, Mama He suddenly reacted, hersed softly, and asked in doubt, "Ma'am, where did you know about this Christmas tree?" ? Why hasn’t this old slave heard of it?”

Ruan Tao was also stunned: "..."

Got it!

Great!

She hadn't even thought about such a profound question just now!

He Ma's temperament is always to know what's going on, but also to know why...

Ruan Tao's gaze didn't have time to look away from He Ma, so the brief gaze at each other became anxious and prolonged.

"I read it in the storybook~" Ruan Tao bit the bullet and said.

It seems that the original owner who heard about it from Mama He doesn't seem to have any other hobbies besides reading scripts!

It can't be said that you can see it by reading classics!

Mama He is such a smart npc, she can't ooc in front of Mama He without warning...

After Ruan Tao finished speaking, he smiled politely and obediently.

Correct!

In He's mother's opinion, it was a cute smile, the kind of smile that "otherwise, let's turn this matter over".

He Ma took a deep breath and said anxiously, "Is there such a thing in the script?"

Ruan Tao firmly nodded, "Yes!"

Mama He: "..."

He Ma had an expression of "why do I not believe that?" Ruan Tao said calmly, "Didn't you also read the Hekram's first aid method from the storybook when you choked on April [-] at the racecourse?"

Mama He: "..."

Although it sounds weird, I always feel that something is wrong, but it seems to make sense...

At a time like this, Ruan Tao certainly couldn't give He Ma a chance to seriously think about the logical relationship!

Ruan Tao took out his trump card, "Mum He, I haven't eaten tonight and I'm hungry, help me finish the lotus seed soup."

"The old slave is going now!" Mama He immediately returned to her profile picture!

Taking good care of his wife's diet and daily life is He Ma's biggest goal!

Seeing that Mama He left without any further doubts about other things, Ruan Tao pinched the center of his brows lightly, and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart - indeed, the more inconspicuous, the easier it is to miss, and the more careful it is.

Everywhere!

Interrupted by the episode just now, Ruan Tao couldn't read the account book anymore!

What Ruan Tao has been looking at just now is the account book after the fire, which is not complete at the moment, but she has to let her know in advance!

Although Ruan Tao had discussed with Ruan Zhao and Fang's mother beforehand, how the fire would burn and how big it would be, and it was clear that the fire would mainly focus on the Nan Yi Treasury. But don't burn blindly, at least the treasury like storing grain should minimize losses!

Gold and silver are of course important!

But in this environment, food is equally important!

Especially the thirteen cities of Nanping are all fiefdoms under the jurisdiction of the Nanping Marquis. Once a famine occurs in one of the thirteen cities of Nanping, the harvest is not good, and the people's livelihood is affected. The treasury is too late, and there may not be food and disaster relief to the city.

Only the granaries in the Thirteenth City of Nanping can adjust each other!

But if the granaries everywhere are in emergency, or there is no time to support them, the grain hoarded in the private warehouse of Nanping Houfu is life-saving grain!

These grains cannot be moved!

Therefore, when Ruan Zhao set off the fire last night, he had to be "precise" to avoid important gold and silver treasures, as well as granaries!

Although, once the fire starts, it is impossible to be [-]% sure that everything will go according to plan.

But if the water storage tanks near these treasuries are filled with water, and the adjacent water storage tanks are all filled with water, after the water is drained, the fires in these places will be first rescued by dispatching people, and the losses will be minimized no matter what. Keep it under control!

But with a plan, there will be errors!

It is impossible for the fire to burn out exactly according to the number planned earlier, and there will always be discrepancies.

So Ruan Tao has to keep abreast of these discrepancies and see if the difference is big, so that he can decide what to do next and how to deal with the world!

But this incident itself is not obtrusive!

Because, in the eyes of others, after the fire, everyone in the Hou Mansion was anxious like ants on a hot pot, wishing to take stock of the damage caused by the fire in the treasury within a day!

Therefore, Ruan Tao asked people to count the surviving items in the treasury, not only would no one in Huicheng feel strange or disagree!

There will even be a heartache, what a pity!

And curious about how much the Hou Mansion lost this time!

In this way, today's brochure was updated to Ruan Tao around dusk. Ruan Tao didn't look at it, but went directly to the food!

Food is the most important place. Ruan Tao saw that there was not much difference after reading it, so he felt relieved, and then went to look at the bank notes, and found the silver and treasures here.

These are hard currencies!

As long as these are still there, it won't matter how many times the Hou Mansion is burned.

As for the land title deeds, they must not appear in the treasury fire except for show!

Therefore, it seems to outsiders that the Hou Mansion suffered heavy losses this time!

But in fact, planning ahead is a drop in the bucket!

But if you want to show it to others, you have to act realistically, with both voice and emotion.

So far, the goal has been achieved!

The rest is the plan to go to Beijing!

Ruan Tao looked at the title page of the account book, and finally she was about to leave Huicheng, and she could start to do what she wanted to do!
