"Yeah! Otherwise, it would take a lot of work to calculate it this way."
Su Mingshan never doubted that it was Xie Yanzhi's first time to learn these crooked Arabic numerals.
Just assume that he is naturally smart, well-informed, knowledgeable, and knows something that ordinary people cannot.
After half an hour of studying with some vague understanding, she finally gave up.
"Sister Li, maybe I'm stupid. I know everything you said, but when I saw the account books, I still couldn't help it. I matched them up one by one. I subconsciously wanted to turn the abacus. Otherwise, I'll do the calculations today. Well, if you are able, work harder and calculate more. I will try not to put all the pressure on you and my brother-in-law-to-be. I will study hard when I am free again."
It wasn't that Su Mingshan was stupid, it was just that when she saw the numbers in the account book, she subconsciously wanted to adjust the abacus.
If she really had to wait for her to convert the numbers she just learned into her mind and then calculate them, it would not be a waste of time.
She felt that she still needed to get familiar with the process of mastering it, and it was simply unrealistic to learn and apply it now.
Li Yuan also knew that everything required a process, so she turned to look at Xie Yanzhi.
She was slightly surprised when she saw him quickly dialing the abacus using Arabic numerals and the method she just taught.
Does this guy have a photographic memory? Or maybe you have a great memory?
But being able to be a scholar at the age of ten, and still being a junior, his IQ is definitely not low.
With this in mind, she took another look at the thick pile of account books, lowered her head and started to read the account books.
If she wasn't afraid of being abrupt, she actually wanted to use the ballpoint pen in the space to calculate.
This soft writing brush has to be dipped in ink from time to time. After all, it is not as convenient as a ballpoint pen.
Thanks to the help of Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi, the large number of account books that Su Mingshan brought over were finally completed in time for the next day.
Su Mingshan put the problematic account books into wooden boxes and handed them to Suxue.
"You and Su Lan should go back now and give these to my father so that he can take care of them before the end of the year. By the way, tell him that I will go back after noon."
She said, yawned regardless of her appearance, and looked at Sulan.
"You don't have to do any errands today. Let's all have a good rest. We won't have anything big to do next, so we can have a good New Year."
Su Lan nodded vigorously with her red eyes: "Okay! The servant and Suxue will go back first. Will you come to pick up the young lady at noon?"
"Yes, but you don't need to. Just ask the coachman to come over. When you go back, take the key and lock the door from the outside. When you come over, open the door yourself."
With that said, she took the key from Li Yuan and handed it over. Then she waved to the two girls and said to Li Yuan, "Sister Li, I'm so sleepy. Let's go to bed quickly."
Her brain was so swollen now that she was so sleepy that she could hardly keep her eyes open.
If she didn't want to deal with these things before the year, she didn't want to trouble her father.
Li Yuan was also sleepy, so she nodded and quickly washed up and lay down on the bed.
*
Xiao Qingsha woke up early in the morning and saw that her mother and master were still sleeping. The little girl did not wake them up, but got dressed and got out of bed.
But after she got out of bed, she saw her mother opening her eyes.
"Sasha do you want to pee?"
"want!"
Although the little girl didn't want to disturb her mother, she nodded obediently when she saw that her mother was awake.
Li Yuan was so sleepy that she could hardly keep her eyes open, but because the child was still there, she could only push up her tired body, get dressed, and take the child out.
After the internal emergency was resolved and the little girl was asked to clean her hands, she asked, "What would Shasha want to eat in the morning?"
The little girl saw that her mother was tired and said, "Mom puts the rice in the pot, Shasha makes porridge, and mother sleeps."
Seeing her sensible look, Li Yuan smiled and touched her head: "Mom, you're not sleepy. Just wash your face and you'll be fine."
The little girl raised her head and glanced at her mother, thinking that what her sister said was right.
Adults sometimes lie, but the lies are all for them, so they cannot expose them.
As a good boy, you should know how to be considerate of adults, especially their mothers.
After eating for a while, she told her mother that she was sleepy and asked her to sleep with her.
In this case, mother will probably go to bed obediently, right?
How did Li Yuan know that her considerate little cotton-padded jacket, after she really drank the sweet potato porridge and was full, she said: "Mom, Shasha is sleepy and needs to sleep."
Li Yuan secretly drank some spiritual spring water, and now she felt a little more energetic.
Seeing that the little girl was in good spirits, she actually said she was sleepy, which made her a little curious.
After she had washed the dishes and warmed the porridge with charcoal, she was pulled back to the room by Xiao Qing.
"Mom, sleep with Shasha."
At this moment, Li Yuan didn't know what the child was thinking.
Touched, she reached out and hugged her. Thinking that she still had to catch up on her sleep, she took out two pastries from the cabinet.
"If Shasha is hungry, eat this first to fill her stomach. If she is thirsty, ask her mother to get up and get some water. You can't drink cold water by yourself, you can't go to the well, and you can't run and hide, you know?"
Xiao Qingsha has always been told by her sister to know what she can do and what she cannot, otherwise both her sister and mother will be sad.
So she took off her shoes, climbed to the end of the bed, sat down, and said to Li Yuan, "Mom, give me a book for Shasha to read."
Su Mingshan was not sleeping deeply. When she heard this, she half-opened her eyes and her voice was slightly hoarse. She said to Li Yuan: "Sister Li, after watching Caiwei and Qingsha, why do you always feel like you are tricking me into giving birth to a daughter? "
Seeing that she was awake, Li Yuan asked, "I made some porridge and warmed it in the pot. Do you want to eat some before going to bed?"
"No, I have to continue to sleep for a while. By the way, Sister Li, what time is it now?"
"Shasha usually wakes up around midnight, but it's not the end of the morning now. If you want to sleep, then keep sleeping. I also have to take a nap."
After saying this, she took the Bai Jia Xing out of the space while going to get the book from the cage, turned around and handed it to Qingsha.
"Shasha, be good and read. Mom will wake up and cook for you. You need to pee and drink water. Remember to call mom, do you know?"
"good!"
When Li Yuan woke up and opened her eyes, Qingsha was no longer at the end of the bed, but Su Mingshan was still sleeping.
She got up, put on her clothes, and ran out of the room quickly.
"Sasha, where are you?"
Qingsha's voice came from the kitchen: "Mom, I'm here!"
Li Yuan's heart dropped when she heard the voice.
She hurried into the kitchen and saw the little girl lighting the fire, but Caiwei had come back at some point and was chopping cabbage.
Seeing her come in, Caiwei turned around and said to her with an unfamiliar face: "Mom, I was at Master's house. I just came back when I heard that Su Lan and Suxue Chou were busy. I thought you might be busy late. , no one is cooking today, and my sister is alone at home, so I feel a little worried, so someone from Yangsu Mansion sent me back."
Li Yuan looked at her face carefully and asked, "Did Aunt Qing paint your face for you?"
"Well, they are all things that won't hurt your skin. As long as they don't touch the water, don't worry, Mom. By the way, Mom, whatever you want to eat for lunch, I'll make it for you."
