My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!



The account books of the Wang family were usually managed by the second elder Bai. However, at this moment, everyone in the Wang family was locked up in their rooms. The housekeeper was also a trusted person. Naturally, he could bring them over.

The Butler brought the account book first and Gu Xin flipped through it.

Her reading speed was extremely fast. The book she was reading was the income and expenditure record of the Wang family's shop in the Tai Zhou Prefecture two years ago. She noted down the matters handled by the second elder Bai.

After she wrote down a few important matters, someone came to inform her that the second elder had arrived.

Gu Xin put down the account book and asked someone to invite the second elder in.

Ever since the second elder Bai entered the room, he did not even look at the account book beside Gu Xin.

After Gu Xin and the others bowed, they started talking about the Bai family's shop in the prefecture.

The second elder was able to answer fluently, but when asked for details, he would calmly say that it had been a long time and his family had many properties.

The second elder did not even look at the account book.

After asking all these questions, Gu Xin began to ask where the second elder Bai was at the time of the crime.

The second elder replied, " on the first day of the new year, my little sister brought my brother-in-law and my nieces back. I stayed at home to entertain them. I did not go out. Everyone in the family can be my witness."

what about the night of April 30th? " Gu Xin asked again. where was second elder Bai? "

The second elder replied,"I received a letter and knew that my sister and the others would arrive on the first day of the new year. So, I went to bed early that night." Oh, that's right, I also sent people to find father and third brother. That night, third brother was drinking outside."

yes. Gu Xin nodded her head. on the first day of the new year, was there anyone who could confirm your location every hour and every hour? "

The second elder furrowed his brows,"Princess, are you suspecting me because of the memorial?."

Gu Xin didn't get angry just because of his tone, she replied calmly, " "It's just a routine inquiry. I asked the princess the same question just now. Second elder Bai, are you unable to get someone to testify for you at a certain time of the day?"

The second elder looked at Gu Xin and said, " my sister and the others will arrive at noon. After they arrived, I accompanied them to the temple to visit my mother. After that, I chatted with my brother-in-law before returning to the study to read and read the accounts. After that, we had dinner and went back to our room to rest. There are witnesses!"

Gu Xin's hand moved. you didn't see the account books beside me the entire time. You said you were looking at the account books that day? " He probably didn't even know what his family's account book looked like, right?

"What about before Princess Bao Zhu arrived?" Gu Xin asked with a smile.

The second elder pursed his lips. before my little sister came, I arranged for people to clean her yard as usual. Anyway, it's just some trivial matters.

Gu Xin noticed that his forehead seemed to be covered in sweat. She didn't know if he was feeling hot or afraid, so she continued asking, " "Be more specific. What trifling things did he do that day? Which maidservant, which manservant, or second Madam can prove you by following you?"

The second elder's eyes brightened,"yes, it was my wife who helped me deal with it." My wife can be my witness. Princess, you can ask her later."

Gu Xin asked again,"then, did the second master Bai ever think of becoming the Prince of the Wang family?"  

The second elder replied without hesitation, " of course I do. Big brother is gone. It's my turn now. It's just that big brother has a son, so I don't want to fight with him."

Gu Xin,'Oh, second elder Bai is a good uncle. Alright, I've finished asking what I wanted to ask. Second elder Bai, please!"
