Notes of Lanxi Crossing

Chapter 71 Talent

Zhan Yu still didn't understand, with doubts on his face, Zhan Jin smiled and said: "You, you only know how to eat on weekdays, but you never delve into the origin of delicious food. You are making a fool of yourself!"

Zhan Yu begged for mercy: "Good sister, just tell me, why can the problem of food be solved by drying the golden rice? Do we want to eat this?"

"That's right, you restrain yourself, the rice has another name after it's been dried and peeled off?" Lan Xi also teased him.

"I beg of you, don't be so tight-lipped, just say it!"

"Idiot, it's rice! You must have heard that rice is called rice after it's cooked, right?" Liu Shuhuan was so irritable that he couldn't see the explanation.

Only then did Zhanyu realize that the delicious white rice he ate on weekdays was made of this rice.

He chuckled: "That's good, let's go quickly, the pheasant is only a small bite of chicken, it's not enough for my teeth, I'm already hungry."

A few people went to the sun-drying field together. Speaking of which, I don't know how these people's accounts are calculated.

"Young masters and ladies are back!" the children, who were clever, shouted from a distance when they saw them.

Immediately, men, women and children gathered in a crowd on the Zhuangzi scattered in all directions, explaining to Lanxi and the others while they were scattered.

"My lord, I was just waiting to watch the excitement, and I didn't settle the accounts for the children, so you can't give less money!"

There was a black line in Lanxi.

Why does this sound so much like 300 taels of silver here?
At this time, an aisle was separated in the middle of the crowd, revealing an old man with a cane in one hand and supported by several children.

The old man has a gray beard, and although the coarse cloth clothes on his body have been patched a lot, they are not the short brown that the villagers usually wear, and they have a unique temperament.

"Fu De of Fujiazhuang thanked all the gentlemen and ladies on behalf of the children!" Old Fu gathered his crutches in front of him, cupped his hands towards Lan Xi and the others, and even bent down to thank them.

They were so startled that they quickly turned sideways to avoid him, and supported Old Fu's shoulders to stop him.

"That's fine, what are you doing?" Song Lanshu was the oldest among Lanxi's group present, and she was the oldest to deal with this unexpected turn of events.

Mr. Fu looked at everyone carefully, and after seeing no reluctance or displeasure on their faces, he really stretched out the aging lines on their faces.

"It's nothing, the old man is just comforting in his heart, you are all good boys, didn't you scare you?"

He just wanted to thank this group of official sons and daughters. Not only did they not beat and humiliate the lowly common people, but they were willing to spend money to buy and sell with the villagers, and even taught the children how to think about things.

At any time, the hope of the ethnic group lies in the next generation. When the children become better and promising, the villagers on the village will have a better life one day.

Therefore, how could Mr. Fu not be pleased with Zhuangzi's good luck this time?

"This..." Although Song Lanshu heard that something happened, she didn't know the reason, so she couldn't answer for a while.

Seeing this, Zhan Jin took over the quarrel for her: "You don't have to be like this, we actually didn't do anything."

"Yeah, didn't you just buy a few slingshots and be so happy?" Zhan Yu whispered to Zhan Chen.

Lan Xi clenched her fist a little bit. If this little fat man hadn't been a prince, she would definitely beat him up. What did she say?
Zhan Chen frowned and glanced at him, then shook his head slightly: "Don't speak so shamelessly!"

Zhan Yu didn't take it seriously: "Okay, okay, why don't I just watch obediently from the sidelines?"

Fu Lao and the others didn't notice the movement of the first few people behind Zhan Jin, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Taking this opportunity, Song Lanjiu and her sister briefly talked about what happened to them before.

"That's right!" Song Lanshu nodded.

A few days ago, Song Lanshu had followed Liu Yunyao to learn to host Song Family Feed, and often helped her mother sort out the accounts.

While understanding the relationship between the Song Mansion and various families in Beijing and familiarizing with their own industry, I also heard a lot of strange stories from my mother, and made further progress in my understanding of the world.

"You have done a good job. If the children in the village develop the habit of getting something for nothing, it will definitely be a disaster rather than a blessing."

"We really didn't think so much, but we didn't want them to get the money too easily."

"Really? It seems that you may have done it unintentionally!"

It may not be a coincidence that Song Lanjiu's brows twitched at Song Lanshu's words. This idea was originally proposed by Lan Xi, who knows how her little mind turned.

Zhan Yu was impatient to watch them say these useless things again, just wanted to eat quickly, so he tugged Zhan Chen's sleeve secretly, and said in a low voice.

"You go!"

Zhan Chen looked at him suspiciously. The latter rubbed his stomach and raised his chin towards the villagers.

Zhan Chen understood, and was helpless immediately, but ignored him.

Just at this time, Liangzi was asking about Zhan Jin and the others' intentions.

"Gentlemen, are you here for the accounts?" Liangzi blushed in embarrassment, "We are not good at counting, and our calculations are a bit slow. Can you wait a little longer?"

Worried about their opinions, Liangzi quickly added a few words: "Don't worry, everyone, we used to calculate very slowly, but later found that the young lady is fast and good every time. Now it is she who is leading the way, and it will definitely not take long. Out!"

"Extremely extreme! You Niang is very fast at calculating, she can calculate anything with a word of mouth."

"The group of children can add up to a dozen, but they are all no more than young girls. We have all seen it."

When Liangzi said this, the villagers immediately agreed with each other.

In fact, Ryoko and the others are not so slow in their calculations, they are obviously as slow as snails.

For any addition and subtraction of more than ten numbers, they always memorized one end and lost the other end, and the young lady who was watching was almost scratching her head in anxiety.

Seeing that Xiao Shitou miscalculated the number again, she who had already calculated the number in her heart several times couldn't help but make a point, and then reported the various numbers without thinking. Niang, this girl is so good at spelling.

"Oh?" Zhan Jin followed the instructions of the villagers in surprise and looked at the young lady who was shyly hiding beside Xiao Shitou.

The young lady who was already praised by the villagers was extremely shy, and when she was looked at by such a fairy-like noble lady, she felt that her hands were not hands and feet, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

Zhan Jin smiled and waved to her. The young lady didn't know what was wrong with her, so she subconsciously walked towards the other party. It wasn't until she was almost in front of the other party that she realized as if she had just woken up from a dream. in sight.

Song Lanshu stepped forward and held her hand, calming her panicked emotions: "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen!"

Zhan Jin nodded and asked, "I remember you are Liangzi's older sister, so your name is Youniang."

The young lady tried her best to relax herself and nodded.
