Chapter 1 — The day I stopped taking care of the books, the Marquis Palace collapsed

I was born to be a person who likes to manage things. When I was six years old, the woman in charge of purchasing in the house weighed less and less. I took the abacus and chased her to the kitchen door, counting every penny clearly, exposing all three scraps of silver she had embezzled. When I was twelve years old, a few uncles in the clan secretly took over the land. I went back through ten years of old records and forced them to obediently release the land deeds. Everyone in the capital said that although the second lady of the Thoi family had an outstanding appearance, no one dared to marry her. Who would want to marry a studio clerk as his wife? Until the Crown Prince of Vu An Marquis - Bui Huyen Do - saw me at the palace banquet tidying up the messed up relief books.

“Being able to straighten out such a chaotic mess of books is bravery.”

Later, I married him. I Can't Take Care Of It Anymore, The Marquis Palace Will Collapse Then I was born to like to take care of things. When I was six years old, the woman in charge of purchasing in the house weighed less and less. I took the abacus and chased her to the kitchen door, counting every penny clearly, exposing all three scraps of silver she had embezzled. When I was twelve years old, a few uncles in the clan secretly took over the land. I went back through ten years of old records and forced them to obediently release the land deeds. Everyone in the capital said that although the second lady of the Thoi family had an outstanding appearance, no one dared to marry her. Who would want to marry a housekeeper as his wife? Until the Marquis of Vu An Palace - Bui Huyen Do - saw me at the palace banquet tidying up the chaotic relief books.

“Being able to straighten out such a mess of books is truly a feat.”

After that, I married him. I replaced the Marquis Palace to fill in the gaps in revenue and expenditure, arrange military supplies, suppress the arrogant slaves, and support the reputation of the entire palace. But after Lam Kieu Kieu returned to the capital, for the first time he gave me a cold face.

“Cui Linh Nghi, can you stop forcing people so much all the time?”

From that day on, I don't care anymore. But after I let go, the Marquis's mansion was in chaos. Even Bui Huyen Do began to panic. The first time I got divorced, it was because of a book. That day, the Trieu family's wife brought her son to see her. Mother specifically advised me:

“Linh Nghi, today talk less about books and laugh more.”

I nodded in response. The first half hour, I was indeed very obedient. Mr. Trieu complimented my brooch as beautiful, and I smiled. Lady Trieu complimented me on the delicious tea I made, and I also laughed. Until Lady Trieu said, her palace spent only thirty taels of silver in a year on makeup. I couldn't help but raise my head.

"There are seven female relatives in the palace, thirty taels is not enough. If we really only spent thirty taels, then either the lady in charge of purchasing secretly took money from another account to make up for it, or there is an item missing in the books."

The entire hall immediately fell silent. The smile on the mother's face stiffened. After Lady Trieu returned to the palace, that night she sent someone to say goodbye. The reason stated was extremely polite.

"The girl from the Cui family is smart and talented, but it's a pity that our family doesn't have the blessing."

The second time I got divorced, it was because I pointed out that the books of the groom's family's rice shop had false issues. The third time, it was because at the flower reward party, I counted a young man Haven't paid off all gambling debts. From then on, word spread throughout the capital. The second lady of the Thoi family has a beautiful face, but has the heart of a cashier. Whoever marries her will be unlucky. My mother often sighed:

"Linh Nghi, you like to manage things like that. In the future, how will your husband's family be able to stand you?"

“If the books are clear and clean, naturally you won't care.”

Mother looked at me, like she was looking at a stubborn rock that wouldn't move.

“Where in this world can you get so many clean books?”

I don't answer. So I still can't get married. Not until the relief party in the palace. That year, Jiangnan was hit by a flood, errors in the Household Ministry's books piled up, and the Queen Mother ordered the palaces to donate money for relief. At the banquet, a kid accidentally dropped a book on the ground. I just glanced at it and immediately discovered that there was an amount of money that didn't match. At first I didn't want to manage it. But it's a lifesaver. If there is a shortage of silver, there may be another person below who is not given porridge. I stepped forward, adjusted each page of the books neatly, and once again listed all the deficits. Everyone in the palace looked towards me. I knelt down and said:

"Confessing to the Queen Mother, the loss of rescue food in the three districts of Jiangnan is unreasonable. If the money was distributed according to this book, at least two thousand refugees would not receive food rations."

The main hall immediately fell into silence.
