"My current identity is just the cousin of the Gu family. I am a guest here and I am here to help out! I can attack or defend, so I won't be tied up by her!

"Does she think I'm just like her, a fool who can be bullied at will?"

Su Yi immediately sorted out the account books, called a few maids, and asked them to carry the account books and go to Qichiyuan with her.

This thankless task, Su Yi would never do it! Whoever wants to do it can do it!

She only needs to lower her head, give in, and call herself stupid, and then she can throw this trouble back to Song Mingli!

What was Song Mingli thinking? Wanting her to be a scapegoat? Dream on!

Before Su Yi reached the gate of Qichiyuan, she saw a huge group of people heading to Qichiyuan.

There was someone in front, blocking the way and not allowing the Gu family's servants to go forward.

"Who is this person? Why is he so arrogant in the Gu family? Why is he blocking the servants of the master?" Su Yi asked curiously.

A servant who came over bowed to her and said, "My cousin, they are the ladies and servants of the princess's mansion. It is said that the princess's nurse has come in person, and they blocked her way because they were afraid of causing trouble."

The princess's wet nurse is of no rank or status, but who dares to offend her?

That's the person who serves the noble man.

Su Yi's hands couldn't help but tightly clench the handkerchief. Although she still had a smile on her face, her eyes revealed the jealousy and envy that could not be concealed.

"Excuse me, what are the people from Her Royal Highness the Princess doing here? Is my cousin still in contact with the princess?" Su Yi was jealous and sour.

"They said they came to deliver rewards, but I don't know anything else." The servant replied.

After Su Yi and the others from the princess's mansion left in a grand manner, she took their people to Qichiyuan.

The servants in Qichiyuan all had happy expressions on their faces, and the festive atmosphere was even more intense than that of the Chinese New Year.

Oh, she wasted her time and energy, but it was thankless. Song Mingli just sat back and enjoyed the fruits of her labor! She was dreaming!

"Greetings to my cousin's wife." Su Yi said outside the door.

Song Mingli asked her to come in in a lazy voice.

Su Yi took a deep breath. When she entered the room, she felt that the room was magnificent and bright, which made her heart beat faster.

But if you look closely, the decoration in Song Mingli's house is fresh and elegant, not luxurious.

Looking again, it turned out to be a set of headgear that had been on the table and had not yet been put away!

The gold headpiece was inlaid with translucent rubies. It reflected the sunlight coming in from the window, shining brightly and blinding her eyes.

Su Yi held her breath and looked at the headgear in amazement.

So beautiful! The craftsmanship of the skilled craftsmen, the extremely pure red gold, and the bright and translucent ruby!

She had never, ever seen such beautiful jewelry!

Su Yi couldn't help swallowing her saliva...Oh my God! How happy would a woman be if she could own such a set of jewelry?

You would wake up laughing even in your dreams, right?

"Cousin...what a blessing!" Su Yi's voice trembled.

She clenched her hands in her sleeves, and the envy and jealousy in her heart could hardly be hidden.

"If you manage the household well, you will have such blessings in the future." Song Mingli said in a calm voice.

"Huh?" Su Yi was slightly stunned. Butler, what does this have to do with the reward from the princess's mansion?

Song Mingli said in a gentle voice, "I didn't know how to run a business before, but I learned it while being a housekeeper. I heard that the princess wanted to start a business, so I tried to get a share. Now, the princess's business has good prospects, and she thinks I have good vision, so she rewarded me specially."

Su Yi blinked her eyes, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Song Mingli said, "If you don't believe me, go ask my mother and grandmother. When I wanted to do business with the princess, they strongly opposed it! They said I was giving money to the princess and wasting it.

"Alas, they have not taken care of the family for a long time, and their vision is not good anymore. Such a good opportunity does not come every year!"

Su Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath and nodded slightly.

"Oh, cousin, you came to see me. Is there something wrong?" Song Mingli asked.

Su Yi thought for a while, "Oh, I have been looking at the accounts without sleep for the past two days. There are a few places that I don't understand. I want to ask my sister-in-law for help."

Song Mingli chuckled, "My cousin is a diligent and down-to-earth person, so I won't beat around the bush with you. The Gu family's current situation will not work out unless they increase revenue and cut expenditure."

Su Yi took a deep breath and nodded repeatedly, "But increasing income and reducing expenditure... How can it be that easy? Since my cousin's wife has the opportunity to make money, why not take care of the Gu family..."

Before Su Yi finished speaking, Song Mingli shook his head.

"The Gu family didn't believe me, they even forced me to return the money to the princess!

"Besides, the princess's mountain has not been developed yet. It's still too early to make money. The Gu family can't wait."

Su Yi curled the corners of her mouth, she looked back at the piles of account books with a gloomy expression.

She has endured for so long, if she gives up now, all her efforts will be in vain!

She got nothing except two dark circles under her eyes, and was also ridiculed by others, who said she had no idea how to manage the household and that she was just boasting a lot but gave up after just two days!

If you don't give up, although it will be difficult at the beginning... but what Song Mingli said is right, increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and get the Gu Mansion going first.

After all, it’s such a big mansion. Once it starts to turn around, there won’t be many opportunities, right?

By then, everyone in the Gu family will know how powerful she is, so won’t they all revolve around her?

Song Mingli is now hiding and free, but he will be completely sidelined by then! She will never get involved in anyone or anything in the Gu Mansion again!

Su Yi thought of this and couldn't help but take another look at the dazzling headgear...

As for Song Mingli’s things - in the future, they will all belong to her, Su Yi!

Let Song Mingli be proud for a while and see who has the last laugh!

"I got it. Sorry to bother my cousin's wife." Su Yi said goodbye.

When Su Yi went out, she bumped into Nan Xing.

"Ouch!" Su Yi almost sprained her ankle, but fortunately she was supported by the maid.

She glared at Nanxing and said, "Why are you so irritable?"

Nan Xing wanted to apologize, but when she looked at her, she was stunned. She covered her chest with her hands and frowned slightly.

"What are you doing? Are you trying to blackmail me? You hit me! I even sprained my ankle!" Su Yi frowned, looking very unhappy.

Nanxing frowned, took a step back, and moved away from her without saying a word.

Seeing this, Su Yi became even angrier and snorted, "The maids in my cousin's yard are all well-behaved, but you are so reckless and didn't even apologize after bumping into someone. You are so bad!"

Su Yi threw the handkerchief fiercely and left angrily.

Nanxing stood outside the door for a while, and only went in after Su Yi left Qichiyuan.

"What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?" Song Mingli looked at Nanxing.

She heard the conversation between Su Yi and Nan Xing.

Although Song Mingli stayed in the room and did not show up, she was also nervous.

In the previous life, Nanxing was Su Yi's minion.

Although he was not willing, Nanxing was driven by Su Yi after all.

In this life, she has stolen Su Yi's man, and she doesn't know whether fate will push Nan Xing to Su Yi again?

For example, today, she didn’t want Nanxing and Suyi to see it at all!

But the two of them just happened to bump into each other... Sometimes, the power of fate can be so strong that it makes people doubt whether their efforts are useful.

Nan Xing slowly raised her head and looked at Song Mingli seriously, "Miss, do you believe in past lives and present lives?"

Song Mingli's breathing stagnated and he remained silent.

"Just now, I thought about it carefully. I should have never seen that lady..." Nan Xing frowned, his expression solemn, "But I didn't like her the first time I saw her."

"I've never felt this way about anyone else... Oh, there's one other person, my disgusting cousin."

When mentioning that person, Nanxing looked disgusted.

Apart from her obsession with medicine, she is indifferent to other likes and dislikes.

It's rare to see her so disgusted with something.

"Everyone has an aura. Maybe some people are born with incompatible auras." Song Mingli said in a gentle voice.

Nan Xing shook her head. "More than that. I feel that she is a very ominous sign to me. When I see her, I get cold all over."

Nanxing said this and shuddered.

"You shouldn't speak ill of others behind their backs, but please forgive me this time," Nan Xing looked at Song Mingli seriously, "Miss, you should stay away from that woman just now. I don't think she is a good person."
