Chapter 67 Chapter 67

When Xun Feibai came to the study, Yan Cong'an was sitting at the desk looking through the account books.

The boy left after reaching the door. Seeing her concentration, Xun Feibai slowed down and walked in. He picked up the teapot on the table beside him, poured a cup of tea, and gently placed it in front of Yan Cong'an.

Seeing the teacup, Yan Cong'an raised his head from the front of the table, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Xun Feibai beside him.

Walking behind her, Xun Feibai put his hand on Yan Cong'an's shoulder, gently kneading it for her.

Yan Cong'an leaned back slightly on the back of the chair, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.She sat in front of this case for more than two hours, and her shoulders were indeed sore.Now being gently kneaded by the soft hands behind her, it really relieved a lot.

Seeing her fatigue, Xun Feibai felt a little distressed, and saw the two tall stacks of account books in front of the case. His hands kept moving, and he couldn't help but blame him: "I have to look at the account books today, so why didn't you call me sooner?" Come here, let me check it out for you?"

Yan Cong'an heard the accusation in her words, and lightly stroked Xun Feibai's hand, signaling her to stop.Xun Feibai was a little puzzled, walked to her side, Yan Congan leaned on her waist, and said with a smile: "Here are some account books from the past few years. I have been in the capital for the past few years, and the income of the farm is money every year. The steward made a summary and sent a copy to me. I saw that the income was not much different from that of my parents before they were alive, and I hadn't looked at it carefully. Now we are going to live in the village for a while, so I want to take a closer look Look, I'm not in a hurry, I'll just take my time."

Xun Feibai stretched out his arms to hug her around his waist, glanced at the account book, thought for a while and said, "I'll read it with you tomorrow."

Seeing her insistence, Yan Cong'an had no choice but to respond: "Okay."

Xun Feibai thought that it was Yan Cong'an who sent someone to call him back, so he asked, "Is there something wrong with you sending someone to look for me?"

Yan Cong'an raised his head from her waist, and said with a slight smile, "The treasure box and the guards hunted some mountain goods, and I thought about roasting them for dinner at night, do you like it?"

Hearing what she said, Xun Feibai remembered the day when the temple was ruined. She and those classmates originally wanted to find some wild rabbits and pheasants on the nearby mountains, catch them and roast them, but unexpectedly, they overestimated their own power. They searched all afternoon, but found nothing. Finally, it started to rain heavily, and several people hid in the temple to avoid the rain.

She withdrew her thoughts and said with a smile, "I like it."

Yan Cong'an thought of the villain who had been clinging to Xun Feibai for the past few days, and asked aloud, "Where is Yuan Jin? Why don't you see her clinging to you today?"

Xun Feibai heard the words and told her about the matter just now, Yan Cong'an felt that she handled it properly, so he didn't say much.Xun Feibai glanced at Yan Cong'an, then bent down, looked down at her, and asked narrowly, "Why did I smell a sour smell just now?"

Yan Cong'an heard the meaning of the joke in the words, and did not refute, but just gave her a casual look.

Seeing the tenderness in her eyebrows and eyes, Xun Feibai picked her up and sat on his lap, then kissed her on the lips.

Xun Feibai stretched out his sweet tongue and gently licked the corner of Yan Cong'an's lips, slid along the soft lip line all the way to the slightly protruding bead, hooked it with the tip of his tongue, and then covered his lips, gently Grind and lick.

Even though he has tasted the smoothness and softness countless times, Xun Feibai still finds it extremely attractive. Every time he holds Yan Cong'an in his arms, the joy that rises from the bottom of his heart always makes her unable to restrain herself.Her kisses are sometimes soft and sometimes passionate, and her naughty little tongue is playing between Yan Cong'an's lips and teeth, lingering and forgetting to return tirelessly.

The faint scent of soap locust permeated Yan Cong'an's nose, and Yan Cong'an fell into it for a moment with his hot lips.

Yan Cong'an was obsessed with her for a long time, only to feel a warm current rising in her lower abdomen, and the only trace of clarity in her mind made her feel a little ashamed in her heart.His body had long been soft and weak from the kiss of the little bastard in front of him, Yan Cong'an raised his hand and gently pushed against Xun Feibai's chest.

Sensing her shame, Xun Feibai left those sweet lips with unsatisfactory intentions.Their foreheads were pressed against each other, their warm breath sprayed on each other's faces, Xun Feibai looked down, and saw that soft and tender lips seemed to be painted with the most beautiful lip balm, the red was extraordinarily charming.

Xun Feibai couldn't help but leaned over and pecked lightly again, only to calm down some of the anger in his heart, and then he embraced the beautiful woman in front of him, and in a hoarse voice, he called in her ear: "Cong'an."

The slippery breath passed by her ears, causing Yan Cong'an's heart to palpitate, but in the end reason prevailed. She raised her hand to caress Xun Feibai's back, gently comforting the insatiable person in her arms, and said with some reproach: "I don't even look at where I am now, and I'm not afraid of being looked at."

Hearing the shame in her words, Xun Feibai calmed down, and joked in her ear: "Then I'll go and close the doors and windows, is Cong'an willing?"

Yan Cong'an couldn't help but thumped her when he heard the words, and lightly reprimanded: "It's a bright day, you talk nonsense, how can you do that in the study." As he spoke, he was about to push her away.

Xun Feibai hugged her waist tightly, rubbed his cheeks against Yan Cong'an's temples, and said softly: "Cong An Mo wants to push me, I was the one joking just now, Cong An Mo needs to care, let me hold you for a while longer .”

Yan Cong'an stopped moving when he heard the sound, and sat quietly in Xun Feibai's arms.After a while, Xun Feibai let go of her embrace, but there was still some nostalgia in her eyes. She lowered her head and rested on Yan Cong'an's shoulder, and said in a soft voice: "Cong'an just owed me once, and I will ask you to pay for it tonight. Get back twice as much."

Listening to her childish words, Yan Cong'an couldn't laugh or cry, remembering the double begging that day, a blush suddenly appeared on her face, she stretched out her hand and squeezed her waist fiercely, and finally relieved her anger.

Xun Feibai snorted, stretched out his hand to grab Yan Cong'an's catkin, raised his wet eyes, and said pitifully to her, "It hurts so much."

Yan Cong'an couldn't bear to be looked at by her, so he lowered his head and kissed the man's cheek lightly, which made Xun Fei smile and put away his aggrieved expression.

For the next few days, Xun Feibai and Yan Cong'an kept checking the account books of the villa in the study without other chores.

Xun Feibai looked at the account book in his hand, recalling the account book he saw at Lu Village’s Zheng’s home a few days ago, and inadvertently started talking to Yan Cong’an: “From An you can know that the dams and ditches in the village were all made by parents during their lifetimes. Good deeds?"

Yan Cong'an nodded and said: "I know, I just read the account book. This work has been done for more than four years, and it was completed in the second year after my parents left. I think there was a time when they always left early and stayed late." After all, it should be doing this." Then he turned to her side and asked, "How did Fei Bai know about this?"

Xun Feibai said: "Well, I heard from Lu Cunzheng yesterday that he praised his father and mother for their kindness. It took a total of 560 to 780 cash to repair the embankment and dig ditches. I saw the account books at his home a few days ago. As big as the purchase of mountain rocks, as small as the cost of each shovel, Lu Cunzheng recorded every penny spent. He said it was a great favor to Taohua Village, and he would put it in the ancestral hall when it was repaired later. , so that future generations will remember the kindness of parents."

Yan Cong'an raised his head from her arms when he heard the words, frowned and asked, "How much money did you say you spent?"

Xun Feibai was a little puzzled, but seeing her expression, he repeated it again: "Three thousand five hundred and sixty to seven hundred and eighty nine."

After Yan Cong'an listened carefully to the number, he didn't say a word, and stared at the table with his eyebrows fixed. Then, he picked out one of the two stacks of account books, opened the last page, and handed it to Xun Feibai.

Xun Feibai took the account book, looked at the last words, and instantly frowned, looked at Yan Cong'an in surprise and said: "This amount..."

荀飞白看着账簿末页上那一行字,总计:四千630贯320五钱。比起村正口中的三千560一贯780九文,整整多了一千零68贯530六钱。

Xun Feibai was so shocked that there was such a huge difference, a person flashed in her mind and asked aloud, "Mian Guanshi?"

Yan Cong'an didn't think about it when he heard the words, he just nodded and said: "Even if he didn't participate in the inflow and outflow of more than 1000 yuan, he was negligent in his duties. As a manager, although he couldn't know everything, he was comprehensive. But such a big deviation , If you say he doesn't know, I'm afraid it won't make sense."

Xun Feibai wondered: "But the difference in the number is so large, you can tell there is a problem at a glance, how dare they be so bold."

Yan Cong'an smiled and said, "Fei Bai forgot, where did you know the amount spent?"

Xun Feibai lowered his eyebrows in deep thought, and suddenly realized after a while.All the expenses for building dams and thoroughfares were paid by Lanxi Villa. Except for the people and accountants who participated in the corruption of money, no one would know about it.Unexpectedly, Lu Cun paid extra attention because of his gratitude for this kindness. During the daily supervision, he deliberately recorded every expense and made an account book.If it weren't for this, who would have known how much it would have cost if this matter had lasted for four years?

Knowing that she understood the reason, Yan Cong'an asked, "Did you check that account book today?"

Xun Feibai nodded and said: "I flipped through it a few times at random, and the records are indeed very detailed. The final number is exactly 560, 780, and [-] words without error."

Yan Cong'an glanced at the sky outside and said: "Even so, bring the account book, and compare the two sides to know where the mistakes are."

Xun Feibai said: "Then I'll go to Village Zheng's house now and get the account book." After saying that, Xun Feibai was about to turn around and walk out.

Yan Cong'an grabbed her lapel: "I'll just send the treasure box to get it, so why make you come all the way."

Xun Feibai stopped walking when he heard the words, thought of something, and asked, "Comparing Lu Village Zheng's account books can find any mistakes, but it can't be used as evidence that they have embezzled money?"

Yan Cong'an nodded and said, "The account books really can't be used as evidence, but since we can find out where they have tampered with, we should be able to find some clues from there."

Xun Feibai thought about it for a while, but didn't say anything else, there was no other way, it was better to find out where the account books had been tampered with first.

The two went back to the study after dinner, compared with Lu Cunzheng's account books, and found out the problems in the account books in a short time.

The accounts are undisguised and not processed in complicated ways. From simple stone mining, labor employment, to the purchase of iron tools such as shovels and chisels, and bamboo baskets, each item has increased by [-]%.

Yan Cong'an looked at the account book, and realized in his heart that this account book was not the original one, it should have been recompiled after the death of his parents, otherwise, if there were obvious loopholes, how could his father not see it.This kind of account book is so rough, it is sure that after her parents pass away, no one will know the exact cost.

Yan Cong'an looked tired, Xun Fei got up and sat beside her, and asked: "There are problems in every part of this account book, and Guanshi Qian must have participated in it. How is Cong'an going to deal with it?"

Yan Cong'an looked worried and said: "He has been the manager of the village for more than ten years, and I have been away all year round. Apart from the maids and guards we brought, the rest of the accountants and small managers in this village, perhaps even most of the servants should be They are all his confidantes. What's more, we have no other evidence in our hands except Lu Cunzheng's account book, even if we directly take the newspaper, it will be useless."

Xun Fei said clearly: "Cong'an wants to make a long-term plan?"

Yan Cong'an nodded wearily and said, "I want to find out how many people are involved so that we can deal with it together."

Xun Feibai thought for a moment and said: "In the next few days, we will check the other account books carefully. Since they dared to embezzle the money for building the dam and opening the canal, they may have tampered with other account books as well."

Steal once, be a thief forever.Having tasted the sweetness once, I think I will not give up such easy money easily.
