Finest Servant

The two of them frolicked for a while, but it was unprecedented relief and happiness. The eldest lady got her wish and let him walk back with her little hand. Anyway, it was dark and windy, and no one could see clearly. Looking at the sweet smile of the eldest lady, Lin Wanrong sighed helplessly, I still have to experience this love scene. If I miss Yuruo, it will really be a lifelong regret.

When they returned to the mansion, Sister Song and the others were waiting anxiously. The eldest lady's face was slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, everyone didn't know what happened, not to mention that there was no one who blamed the master at the moment, and this matter was easily covered up.

Sister-in-law Song saw that the eldest lady was half wet, and said distressedly, "Miss eldest, go take a bath and change clothes. It's cold outside, so don't catch the cold."

The eldest snorted, glanced at Lin San, and said softly, "Go and wash too."

"Same wash--" Taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, Lin Wanrong made a mouthful comparison, and the eldest lady gave him a slightly annoyed look, and her face blushed quickly.

Of course, co-baptism can only be a joke. There are maids in the eldest lady's house, so he can't go in and take care of their masters and servants. The eldest lady has just recovered, and he naturally has to temporarily restrain herself for a few days, so that she cannot let her talk anymore.

In the next two days, Lin Wanrong really put away the wolf's tail, and prepared some things for the flower viewing party with the eldest miss every day, coming up with ideas, telling jokes, and hugging kisses by the way. An Biru hasn't appeared since that night. Lin Wanrong was worried about Xian'er, but when she thought about the close relationship between their master and apprentice, she was no longer worried.

Although the days were happy, he was thinking more and more of Qiaoqiao, and the Luo Cai girl who was far away in Jining, Qingxuan's affairs naturally became his heart disease, pressing on his heart like a stone. If Qingxuan was really Dahua's princess, she would have to go to the palace if she wanted to see her. But how to enter the palace?

Thinking of the joke he told when he parted with Qingxuan, if he couldn't find her, he would post her portrait everywhere in the capital. Although it was a joke, it was not so useless. Taking advantage of his spare time, he recalled the appearance of Qingxuan, wrote down his pen, and engraved the woman he missed day and night on the paper vividly.

This morning, everything was almost ready. The eldest lady instructed Mrs. Song to take out the recent ledger and transcribe it for verification, and then the eldest lady would calculate the income in person.

Xiao Yuruo has been rubbing his ears and temples these few days, kissing him, and he has already been deeply in love. Seeing his yawning appearance, thinking about how diligent and diligent he seems to have changed his temper these days, and knowing that he doesn't like to use a pen When he was busy, he said softly: "Aren't you going to visit Mr. Xu? After today's work is over, we will visit Xu's house tomorrow. Speaking of which, I didn't go to see Mr. Xu in Beijing these days. Really rude."

Lin Wanrong nodded, seeing that Yuruo was thinking of himself like this, he was embarrassed to wander around, so he approached the eldest lady to watch her bookkeeping.

I saw the eldest lady raised her wrist slightly, her small script like the wind, and was writing down the account little by little, and then accounting. I don't know if I don't see it, but after a few glances, Lin Wanrong frowned.

It turned out that all stores used "chips" for bookkeeping. Not only was it troublesome to count, but the calculation was even more complicated. Seeing Xiao Yuruo's new and tender hands constantly copying and transcribing, Lin Wanrong couldn't help shaking his head. If this continues, what year and month will it take? If nothing else, even if the young lady's little hands continue to be tortured like this, it is absolutely unbearable. !

He sighed and said, "Miss, is that how you calculated it?"

Xiao Yuruo said charmingly and angrily: "Yeah, since the ancestors, it has been calculated like this, what's wrong? You are a person who likes to make a fuss."

Lin Wanrong took a pen and wrote a crooked word "○" on the paper, and asked: "This number, Miss, do you know it?"

Yu Ruo shook her head and said, "What is this? Why is it so strange!"

Lin Wanrong threw a pen and sighed, it seems that the Arabic numerals have not been passed. He had a wealth of mathematical knowledge in his previous life, and naturally knew that Arabic numerals were introduced to China around the 14th century. However, due to the existence of "chip" counting, Arabic numerals have not been popularized and used in time until five hundred years later. It began to be promoted in China, six hundred years later than Europe.

Damn, 600 years, that is, in these 600 years, China's technology has lagged far behind Europe. Could it be related to this counting method? This is the foundation!

He paced back and forth a few steps, but the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt. There is no doubt that the use of Arabic numerals and various algorithms based on this foundation is more concise and effective. It goes without saying.

He clapped his hands abruptly and did it, and Lao Tzu did this with Arabic numerals. It was simple and effective. These basic sciences were much more useful than those techniques of making gunpowder and making cannons that flew out of thin air. I believe that with the wisdom and wisdom of the great Chinese, with this simple and effective calculation method, it is not a dream to catch up with Europe.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He snatched the pen from Xiao Yuruo's hand and said with a smile, "Miss, don't be too busy for now. I will teach you a simple and effective counting method, which is guaranteed to be much more economical than yours."

He picked up a pen and wrote down ten Arabic numerals and four operational symbols, and explained the meanings of them one by one to the eldest lady. If Xiao Yu is in business, he is naturally sensitive to these numbers. After listening for a while, he suddenly became interested and smiled. : "Where did you learn these things, it sounds really simple."

Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "The secret can't be revealed, but if you promise to let me kiss it, even if I leak it, it doesn't matter."

Xiao Yuruo glanced at him and said shyly: "After a few words with you, it's not serious again. If you want to kiss, you can find that Hu Meizi surnamed An."

Khan, this girl is addicted to holding revenge, his face is no longer thick and thick, he laughed twice and was about to force the overlord to bow, but he saw Huan'er's little blushing running in and said: "Miss, third brother, Minister of the Household. Lord Xu Wei is visiting with his wife and young lady."

I*, was thinking of visiting Lao Xu, but I didn't expect that the old man came first, and brought his wife and young lady with him. Madam is Su Qinglian, isn't that miss Xu Zhiqing? This chick didn't come to visit me, right? I'm currently in the period of abstinence, and it's difficult to fulfill the promise of the past.

He was thinking with a frowning face, and the eldest lady over there was already delighted: "Hurry up, please!"

While speaking, there was a burst of laughter from outside the door: "Miss Xiao, little brother Lin, the old man came uninvited, you two shouldn't be offended." Three people walked in one after another outside the door. The spirit is loud, and it is Xu Wei, the first scholar in the world. Next to him was Su Qinglian, a famous Hangzhou actress with white hair and a red face, and behind him was the very knowledgeable Miss Xu Zhiqing.

The eldest lady had already stood up to meet her, and respectfully saluted, "Little girl Xiao Yuruo pays respects to Master Xu, Madam and Miss."

Xu Wei laughed and helped her up and said, "Miss, how can you be so polite? In the past in Jinling, the old man was still taken care of by Miss Guo."

Su Qinglian was in Hangzhou in the past because of the matchmaking between these two, so she was naturally grateful and said with a smile: "Xianggong said very much, I and Xianggong are able to have today, all thanks to Lin Gongzi and the eldest young miss, Qinglian is shameless. memorable."

Xu Zhiqing grabbed Xiao Yuruo and said, "Is this the younger sister of the Xiao family? She was born beautiful and dignified, and she has a lot of looks. I wanted to talk to my sister for a long time, but I only got free today. I hope my sister will not blame her."

The eldest lady hurriedly said: "Where did the elder sister come from? When Yu Ruo first arrived in the capital, she should have visited Master Xu and her elder sister first, but she has been busy with business recently and has no time to spare. She is preparing to visit the mansion tomorrow, but she did not expect to call Xu Xu. The adults are the first, and I am really ashamed as a junior."

Lin Wanrong listened to them dropping the bookbags, the boss was not used to it, and clasped his fists with a smile: "Mr. Xu, it's been a long time, how are you? Sister Su, how are you? Miss Xu, how are you!"

Xu Zhiqing continued to talk to Xiao Yuruo as if she hadn't heard him. Since she entered the room, she hadn't even looked at Lin Wanrong, which made a certain Lin feel angry. Damn, that day's pistol was considered a waste. Wasting ammo.

These two women, Xu Zhiqing, was five or six years older than her, and they were both beautiful and smart people. After a few words, her sister and sister called them affectionately. Lin Wanrong shook her head when she heard it, the friendship of a woman really came cheap.

He turned his head to look at Su Qinglian and smiled: "Sister Su, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you have become more and more young and beautiful. I think it must be the credit of Master Xu for moisturizing and irrigating. I congratulate the two of you here, then thank the media wine. When will you buy me a drink? Haha!"

He is the big match between Xu and Su, and they are so familiar with each other, it is okay to joke, but the two young ladies who are talking over there are blushing and scolding shamelessly.

Su Qinglian is a person who has been in the red dust. Listening to his speech, he couldn't help but blushed, and said shyly: "Lin Gongzixiu is going to make fun of me. Qinglian can have today, all because of the son. Thanks, I came here specially to thank the media today.”

Xu Wei stroked his beard and smiled, agreeing: "That's right. Brother Lin is our great benefactor!"

Old man Xu's complexion is much better than when he was in Jinling. It seems that Sister Su is also a wonderful person who takes care of people. He laughed sullenly, pulled Xu Wei and whispered: "Mr. Xu, then thank the media for drinking late. It’s okay to eat some more, but there is one thing I need your help with.”

Xu Wei said oddly, "It's rare to be able to ask Brother Lin to ask for help. Hurry up and listen. As long as Xu can do it, he will obey his orders."

Lin Wanrong smiled and gritted his teeth: "I want to enter the palace!"
